Not Just A Man, But The Christ; The Living Son Of The Living God
By
Calvin J. Moss
St. Matthew 16:13-16 says when Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, whom do man say that I the son of man am?” And they said, some say that thou art John the Baptist: some Elias, others, Jeremiah or one of the prophets. He saith unto them, but whom say ye that I am? And Simon Peter answered and said thou art the Christ, the son of the living God. The word Christ in the Greek language is Christos meaning anointed.
Jesus is the Christ the chosen one, the Messiah that taketh away the sins of the world. Jesus said verily, verily, I say unto say you he believeth on me hath everlasting life (St. John 6:47). We live in a world where, religion runs rampant. Masonry, Islam, Buddha, Black Magic etc. are all tools of the enemy to blind man from the truth that is in Christ Jesus. Jesus said ye shall know the truth and the truth shall set you free (St. John 8:32). The bible tells us that who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is an anti-Christ, that denieth the father and the son(First John 2:22). There are many spirits in the world who deny the power of God and that Jesus is the Christ. These are deceptive seducing spirits that seek to detour individuals especially new believers from the truth. Modern day Pharisees talking about religion is the way of Salvation, when Jesus said I am the way the truth, the life. No one cometh to the father except by me (St. John 14:6). Jesus is not religion. He is our propitiation for our sins, salvation, and the only way to God.
First John 4:1-3 says: Beloved, believe not every spirit but try the spirits whether they are of God because many false prophets are gone out into the world. Hereby know ye the spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God: and every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of anti-Christ whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world. First John 4:15 says whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the son of God, dwelleth in him and he in God. Jesus is the Christ, the living son of the living God. Apostle Paul said for I determined not to know anything among you save Jesus Christ and him crucified ( 1 Corinthians 2:2).
According to St. mark 13:6 Jesus said for many shall come in my name, saying I am the Christ and shall deceive many. We are also told in verse 21-22 “And then if any man shall say unto you lo, here is the Christ, or lo, he is there believe him not: for false Christs and false prophets shall arise and shall shew signs and wonders to seduce if it were possible even the elect. We as true believers know that the son of man will come in the clouds with great power and glory (v.26). There is no other Christ; just him who was conceived of the Holy Ghost in Mary the wife of Joseph. Luke 4:40-41 says when the sun was setting all those who had any that were sick with various diseases brought them to him; and he laid his hands on every one of them and healed them. And demons also came out of many crying out and saying you are the Christ the son of God and he rebuking them did not allow them to speak for they knew that he was the Christ. Amen.

Thank you for this truly well written article. Here is more concerning the Christ! Luke 2:26-And it had been revealed to him by the Holy Spirit that he (Simeon) would not see death before he had seen the Lord's Christ. (30) For my eyes have seen Your salvation (31) Which You have prepared before the face of all peoples, (32) A LIGHT TO BRING REVELATION to THE GENTILES, and the glory of Your people Israel. Isaiah 49:6-I will also GIVE YOU AS A LIGHT to THE GENTILES, that You should be MY SALVATION TO THE ENDS OF THE EARTH. Paul also witnesses to this in the book of Acts 13:46-47. Blessings, Sharon
