So who is Jesus? For many ages and
years, many people have taken this question and tried to answer it. For many
different religions and cults, Jesus could be many different things. He could
be a great prophet. He could be the biggest heretic in history. He could even
be a dinosaur-riding BOSS (Actually, ignore that last one).
But the question is only even more
confusing for people who have never really heard in depth of who Jesus is. The
problem is made even more confusing by the lingo we Christians use. They can ask
questions like: “The Trinity?”, “I don’t get the roles of the three guys…”, “Is
God more powerful than Jesus?” etc. And as Christians we are supposed to be
able to answer these questions. In truth though, most of us haven’t spent that
much time asking ourselves these questions and we don’t often have good
answers.
When people ask though, I think I
can give a few answers. “Who is more powerful, Jesus or God?” The answer is
complicated, but here’s the gist of it: they are one and the same. They are
part of the Trinity, which also includes the Holy Spirit. They all have a part
to play, and they are all one God (Honestly, this is more confusing than the
Zelda Timeline). So, neither is more powerful than the other. “How did he exist
before Creation?” He has existed outside of time, far back and far into the
future.
That’s all for this week. Feel free

Ha... bonus for the Zelda reference!
