Jesus Christ. He’s the reason we gather and love one another and those around us. Christ Jesus is head of His Church, the soon and coming King. Many years ago, I was reading another book when this stray page 29 ripped out of an unknown book floated out. The text has left a deep impression on me, and if you have not met this Jesus we hope you see Him in a new light beyond whatever ideas you might already have.
the incomparable Christ:
More than nineteen hundred years ago there was a Man born contrary to the laws of life.
This Man lived in poverty and was reared in obscurity.
He did not travel extensively. Only once did He cross the boundary of the country in which He lives; that was during His exile in childhood.
He possessed neither wealth nor influence. His relatives were inconspicuous and had neither training nor formal education.
In infancy He startled a king; in childhood He puzzled doctors; in manhood He ruled the course of nature, walked upon the billow as if pavements, and hushed the sea to sleep.
He healed the multitudes without medicine and made no charge for His service.
He never wrote a book, yet all the libraries of the country could not hold the books that have been written about Him.
He never wrote a song, and yet He has furnished the theme for more songs than all the songwriters combined.
He never founded a college, but all the schools put together cannot boast of having as many students.
He never marshaled an army, nor drafted a soldier, nor fired a gun; and yet no leader ever had more volunteers who have, under His orders, made more rebels stack arms and surrender without a shot fired.
He never practiced medicine, and yet He has healed more broken hearts than all the doctors far and near.
Every seventh day the wheels of commerce cease their turning and multitudes wend their way to worshiping assemblies to pay homage and respect to Him.
The names of the past scientists, philosophers, and theologians have come and gone, but the name of this Man abounds more and more.
Through time has spread nineteen hundred years between the people of this generation and the scene of His crucifixion, yet He still lives.
Herod could not destroy Him and the grave could not hold Him.
He stands forth upon the highest pinnacle of heavenly glory, proclaimed of God, acknowledged by angels, adored by saints, and feared by devils, as the living, personal Christ, our Lord and Saviour.
