Who is Jesus?

[IKTCA]

We all know Jesus died on the cross and and resurrected on the third day. What else do we know about Jesus?

In Christ Jesus are hidden all the treasures of wisdodm and knowledge. (Colossians)

How can I stop cutting?
The knowledge is hidden in Christ Jesus.

How can I rid depression?
The knowledge is hidden in Christ Jesus.

I see post after post asking the same question: how can I stop cutting?

I beg you, my friends: Know Jesus. You will surely stop cutting.

The scriptures testify on my behalf. (John)

All scriptures point to Jesus. There is no book in the Bible that does not point to Jesus.

Sister GoldenViolet started a Bible study thread. Get involved. Read the verses she posted. If you cannot understand, ask her questions. If it is too fast, ask her to slow down. If too slow, tell her to pace up. The words will guide you to Jesus. And peace will guard your mind. You will not only stop cutting but also do greater things than you can imagine.

All things are possible through Christ. Cutting also. I use to think that there was no way that I could stop cutting but then I realized I was depending on myself to stop. We must depend on Jesus and come to Him if we are ever to stop. I still struggle with it but the more I go to God instead of feeding my lust of the flesh the more control I have over cutting, depression, and any life in general! Lily00

lily! very true for me too.

you guys, i'd like to share something very tender that was written to me as a was grieved over circumstances:

When I find myself discouraged or covered in greif I have learned that there is only one place to go, to the foot of that glorious cross where our precious Savior willingly sacrificed His life for ours. Only the shoulders that were beaten and torn, then covered in a robe of mockery are strong enough to carry the burdens we find ourselves with. Only the hands that were pierced with nails are tender enough to hold us and give us comfort in our time of need. No one on earth has the power of the one who can call down legions of angels... but didn't. Only on that glorious day when the eastern sky is split open by a King returning for His bride will our battle be over. Until then, we are free to take our worn out bodies and souls to the foot of the cross and become cleansed and refreshed in the ever precious blood of our savior and Lord, Jesus Christ! Take heart and know that your labor is not in vain and that all your effort will bear good fruit for the kingdom of God.

Jesus, is my Savior. Jesus is my Lord.

How many of us know Jesus as God?

1)When Jesus said to rough waters and high winds, "Calm," the sea became calm.

2) When Jesus said to evil spirits, "Come out," they came out.

3) When a woman touched Jesus' garment, power came out of him and healed her.

4) When your heart is troubled, can you go to anyone or any spirit and say, "Give me peace," and get peace? Jesus said, "Peace I give you."

Jesus is God. And his words are recorded in the Bible. If we read books written by mortals, shall we not read the book of his words all the more? If the words of mortals are worthy of reading, are the words of Jesus more worthy of our reading?

You have already been cleansed by the word that I have spoken to you. (John)

Friends,
I beg you to read his words even one or two minutes a day. The words will cleanse our hearts of unworthy desires.
