Who
Is
Jesus?

God, who at various times and in different ways spoke in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, has in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom He has appointed heir of all things, by whom also He made the worlds; (Hebrews 1:1-2 NKJ)

Jesus said, I and my Father are one. (John 10:30)

Wherefore God also hath highly exalted Him, and given Him a name which is above every name: That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. (Philippians 2:9-11)

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by Him; and without Him was not any thing made that was made. (John 1:1-3)

Why Should You Love Jesus?

For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; (Romans 3:23)

For the wages of sin is death; (Romans 6:23a)

And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: (Hebrews 9:27)

And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire. (Revelation 20:15)

For He has made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him. (2 Corinthians 5:21 NKJ)

For God so loved the world, that He gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life. (John 3:16)

Jesus said, "The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly." (John 10:10)

How Can a Person Truly Know They Love Jesus?

And the tax collector, standing afar off, would not so much as raise his eyes to heaven, but beat his breast, saying, 'God be merciful to me a sinner!' (Luke 18:13 NKJ)

For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast. (Ephesians 2:8-9)

Jesus said, "If ye love me, keep my commandments." (John 14:15)

Do you truly believe that Jesus loves you?

If so, do you love Jesus like the Bible says to love Him?

If you answered 'yes' to the questions above, you will want to obey Jesus in the following ways.

For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain. (Philippians 1:21)

I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me. (Philippians 4:13)

Whosoever therefore shall confess me before men, him will I confess also before my Father which is in heaven. But whosoever shall deny me before men, him will I also deny before my Father which is in heaven. (Matthew 10:32-33)

Jesus said, "Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost:" (Matthew 28:19)

I was glad when they said unto me, Let us go into the house of the Lord. (Psalms 122:1)

Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee. (Psalms 119:11)

Pray without ceasing. (1 Thessalonians 5:17)

Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven. (Matthew 5:16)

Dear God,

I believe that Jesus loves me and that He died on the cross for my sins and arose from the dead. I love you, Jesus. Forgive me of my sins and be the Lord of my life. I commit my all to you.

In Jesus' name,

Amen
