Jesus Christ is the eternal Son of God, God incarnate, the promised Messiah. He fulfilled all of the biblical prophecies of the Old Testament that anticipated His arrival, including:
- His heritage (Isaiah 9:6–7, Psalm 2:7)
- His conception and birth (Isaiah 7:14)
- His arrival (Micah 5:2)
- His purpose (Jeremiah 33:14–15)
While on earth, Jesus perfectly revealed and did the will of God; He was human, yet without sin. In His substitution death on the cross and subsequent resurrection, He made provision for the redemption of men from sin, and promises to return at a day and hour only known by God.
In the meantime, Jesus desires a personal relationship with each one of us. Through His redemption, we have the opportunity to live eternally with Him, in a place He is currently preparing for us; a place without illness, sorrow, pain, and death.
