To the inquiring hearts seeking the truth, Grace and peace be to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. As I write this letter to you, my aim is to provide a comprehensive understanding of who Jesus Christ is, drawing from the teachings found in the thirteen epistles that I have penned under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit. 1. **Jesus is the Son of God**: In my letters, I consistently emphasize that Jesus is not merely a great teacher or prophet, but the very Son of God. He shares the divine nature and is the exact representation of God's being, thru a virgin birth.(Scripture: John 1:14 - "The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us.") 2. **Jesus is the Creator**: I proclaim that all things were created by and for Jesus Christ. He holds the universe together and has authority over all creation. (Scripture: Colossians 1:16 - "For in him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible.") 3. **Jesus is the Savior**: I stress the importance of Jesus' sacrificial death on the cross. Through His shed blood, He reconciles humanity to God, offering forgiveness and redemption for all who believe. (Scripture: 1 Corinthians 15:1-4 "The Gospel.") 4. **Jesus is the Mediator**: I highlight Jesus' role as the bridge between humanity and God. He is the High Priest who intercedes on our behalf, understanding our weaknesses and offering grace. (Scripture: 1 Timothy 2:5 - "For there is one God and one mediator between God and mankind, the man Christ Jesus.") 5. **Jesus is the Image of God**: I teach that Jesus is the visible representation of the invisible God. He perfectly displays God's character, revealing His love, compassion, and righteousness.(Scripture: Colossians 1:15 - "The Son is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation.") 6. **Jesus is the Head of the Church**: I assert that Christ is the head of the body, which is the Church. He guides, nourishes, and empowers the believers to fulfill their calling. (Scripture: Ephesians 1:22 - "And God placed all things under his feet and appointed him to be head over everything for the church.") 7. **Jesus is the Wisdom and Knowledge of God**: I emphasize that in Christ are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. True understanding and enlightenment come from knowing Him. (Scripture: Colossians 2:3 - "in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.") 8. **Jesus is the Example of Humility**: I highlight Jesus' humility in leaving His divine glory to become a servant, setting an example for believers to live selflessly. (Scripture: Philippians 2:5-7 - "In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus: Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage; rather, he made himself nothing by taking the very nature of a servant.") 9. **Jesus is the Victor over Death**: I proclaim that Jesus' resurrection from the dead demonstrates His victory over sin and death. Through faith in Him, believers have the hope of resurrection and eternal life. (Scripture: 1 Corinthians 15:55 - "O death, where is thy sting? O grave, where is thy victory?") 10. **Jesus is the Justifier by Faith**: I explain that righteousness is imputed to believers through faith in Christ. Our works cannot save us; it is by grace through faith that we are justified. (Scripture: Romans 3:22 - "This righteousness is given through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe.") 11. **Jesus is the Foundation for Unity**: I stress the importance of unity among believers, emphasizing that we are all one in Christ Jesus, regardless of our backgrounds. (Scripture: Galatians 3:28 - "There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.") 12. **Jesus is the Hope of Glory**: I reveal that Christ in us is the hope of glory. The indwelling Holy Spirit transforms believers into the image of Christ and assures us of future glory. (Scripture: Colossians 1:27 - "To them God has chosen to make known among the Gentiles the glorious riches of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.") 13. **Jesus is the Coming King**: I encourage believers to eagerly await the glorious return of Christ. He will establish His kingdom and reign as King of kings and Lord of lords. (Scripture: 1 Thessalonians 4:15 - "For the lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout with the voice of the archangel and with the trump of God:") In conclusion, the person of Jesus Christ, as revealed in my thirteen epistles, is the Son of God, Creator, Savior, Mediator, the Image of God, the Head of the Church, Wisdom incarnate, an example of humility, the victor over death, the justifier by faith, the foundation for unity, the hope of glory, and the coming King. These truths provide a comprehensive picture of the Lord Jesus Christ, who holds the central place in the faith and salvation of all believers. May the grace, love, and peace of Christ be with you always. In Christ's service, Apostle Paul
