    Different people have different ideas of who Jesus is. To some they do not mind including Him as one of the gods and to others He is one of the prophets...but what does the Bible say who Jesus is?

    Illustration: A Sunday school child was busy doing something, while everyone else was paying attention to the teacher. She had a piece of paper and some crayons, and was doing some art work. The Sunday school teacher being observant asked the child, “Sweetheart, what are you ...read more

    Too often we try to make Jesus fit our own desires. Instead of the real Jesus we want one that fits into our life neatly. That's a plastic Jesus.
