Come Together - Third Day

The Perfect Person

He's one of history's greatest personalities. Standing at the very centre of human history, Jesus changed everything -- from our system of justice to our concept of time.

The Bible tells us that Jesus was born to a virgin, lived a sinless life and taught only a few years in Palestine before being crucified on a Roman cross. Three days after his burial, he rose from the dead, was seen by at least 500 different people and shortly after, ascended to heaven.

During his time on earth, Jesus claimed he had the power to forgive sins, cast out demons and determine people's eternal destiny. In short, he declared himself to be God.

Make no mistake, the story of Jesus is an incredible one. But for some people, it just seems too incredible to be true. Jesus may have been an important religious figure, or even a great moral teacher, they reason, but he could not have been God.

This position may seem like a valid one. But as former Cambridge university professor C.S. Lewis explained in his book, Mere Christianity, "A man who was merely a man and said the sort of things Jesus said would not be a great moral teacher; he'd either be a lunatic -- on a level with a man who says he's a poached egg -- or else he'd be the devil of hell. You must make your choice. Either this man was, and is, the Son of God; or else a madman or something worse."

Lewis went on to say, "You can shut Him up for a fool, you can spit at Him and kill Him as a demon; or you can fall at His feet and call Him Lord and God. But let us not come up with any patronizing nonsense about His being a great human teacher. He has not left that open to us. He did not intend to."

God died for us to go to heaven and i'll love him forever for doing that for us to take our sins! Awesome song! Praise God!!!

The icons and images in this video are amazing, and coupled with this song reflect perfectly what Christianity SHOULD be. Sadly the church is far from where it is meant to be, on many levels. For one, there are hateful denomination wars within the body of Christ. Also, the church chooses to ignore, or worse, totally shun gays when in reality we're supposed to love them and reach out to them. In these and other areas We're failing, and the world sees it. This video is a good wake up call!

@Eye2EyeIIIV What empirical evidence do you have that he rose?

As World War II ended, Jerusalem began to be transformed once again to its roots of Judaism. Yet it also represents those spiritual rivers of Christianity, Islam and so much of the religious pride of the earth. Eventually this One True God spoken of in the Bible will be understood and honored throughout the world as Savior and Lord as people from all nations join in Spiritual pilgramage to worship together in His name - in a new Jerusalem. (Isaiah 45:18-24, Deuteronomy 12:1-32)

Amen... Love is needed greatly!
