What can you be sure of today? You may think, not a lot. One thing I’m sure of is the love of Jesus. You know what happens here, so seeing the image above may not come as a shock to you.
To some the name, “Jesus” is shocking. Ever wonder why. If you mention the name of Buddah few people react, one way or the other. But the name, Jesus is very polarizing. Why? Let’s examine this for a moment. Let’s take the factual first, Jesus was a real person, a historical figure with reams of documentation to prove that He not only lived, but that He was who He claimed to be. Second,
no other person in history has had a bigger influence on the world in which He walked. In the wonderful book, Mere Christianity by CS Lewis, the strongest case ever was made for Jesus. It was the opinion of Lewis that Jesus, was not a great leader, but the Son of God. Jesus claimed to be God’s Son, He either was or a He was a mad man. Even if you eliminate the countless miracles He performed, like restoring sight to the blind, and raising the dead, (countless witnesses are recorded to all these acts), the simple fact is, only an insane person would claim himself to be the Son of God, unless He actually was.

So Jesus was, and is a real person, and God’s only Son. More importantly He loves you and even
gave up His life to offer you forgiveness and eternal life. He is worth believing in, after all He believes in you……
