Wednesday, February 2, 2022. (The Presentation of Christ). 

TOPIC: THE HUMAN NATURE OF CHRIST

TEXT: Hebrews 2:14-18

BIBLE PASSAGE:

14 Since the children have flesh and blood, he too shared in their humanity so that by his death he might break the power of him who holds the power of death—that is, the devil— 15 and free those who all their lives were held in slavery by their fear of death. 16 For surely it is not angels he helps, but Abraham’s descendants. 17 For this reason he had to be made like them,[a] fully human in every way, in order that he might become a merciful and faithful high priest in service to God, and that he might make atonement for the sins of the people. 18 Because he himself suffered when he was tempted, he is able to help those who are being tempted.

INTRODUCTION

Jesus Christ is the eternal God - the Messiah "Who took on human nature of flesh and blood (John 1:14). This was to save mankind from their sins. Jesus did not give up his oneness with God; He became a human being without committing sin. He took on a complete human personality - a new nature - while remaining God. He was fully God and fully human (Phil. 2:6-7).


Jesus' death on the cross paid the penalty for our sins. Without his coming, humanity will not have a Saviour. He came and dwelt among us in order to be a partaker of our human frailty but he did not sin. Jesus came to reveal God to humanity (John 1:18, 14:9); to fulfill God's promise and the prophecy of men of God; to fulfill the Law of Moses; to bring a new covenant into existence and to destroy the works of the devil (1 John 3:8); to judge the world righteously and to help those who are tempted; to be an example of believers and to prepare the world for a heavenly destiny (John 14:1-13). Since Jesus has done all these and more for us, it is our duty then to live for him as a living sacrifice.


 

Prayer: Thank you Father for sending your only begotten Son to save us from sin. Help us to live for you always that we may dwell with you eternally in heaven. Amen.
