King of kings Incognito


The King of Kings and Lord of Lords traveled from heaven to earth incognito. Born in a barn, growing up as a carpenter, and dying on the cross, He lacked the pomp and circumstance expected of royalty. That's why His own people rejected Him.
Colossians 1:15 Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature:
We see the true nature of Jesus in His ministry. Jeff Swart said it well.
  • When I see Jesus associating with known sinners -- I know that there is a loving God
  • When I see Jesus praying for those who crucified Him -- I know there is a forgiving God
  • When I read the words of truth spoken by Jesus -- I know there is a God of all truth
  • When I see the holy life our Lord lived -- I know there is a holy God
  • When I see Jesus turning the water to wine, walking on the water, calming the storm, restoring sight to the blind, hearing to the deaf, causing the lame to walk, the mute to speak, and raising the dead -- I know there is an omnipotent God
