The Jesus God wants us to know …

The Bible gives us very clear instruction concerning the Jesus Christ that God wants us to know, who is in fact the Jesus Christ we need to know if we are to be saved and if we are to serve him effectively. This revealing happens over the entirety of Scripture but especially in the book of Revelation where it is the overarching theme of the book and is clearly stated at the very beginning: “The revelation of Jesus Christ.”

However, it seems that even “good Christian folk” are hesitant to embrace the message of Revelation. It seems that many prefer a more tame Jesus. Jesus at his first coming meek and humble and riding on a donkey is much easier for people to accept. They have misconstrued this Jesus also but for those looking for a lesser Jesus who is a much better fit for their life and their religion, then that Jesus is an easier starting point.

But as servants of the Lord Jesus Christ, we need a grander vision of our risen Lord if we are to receive the call to service that he has put before us. The Apostle John, from the prison island Patmos, is given this vision and was told time and again to write it down so he could send it to the seven churches of Asia Minor and ultimately to us.

Message: “The Jesus Christ God Wants You to Know!”
