What Kind of Man is This?

(Matthew 8-10)

He can:

heal lepers
heal a Roman soldier's son without seeing him physically
heal one of his best friend's mother
have control over the weather
cast out demons
forgive sins (and heal paralysis)
dine with and forgive tax collectors
raise a child from the dead
heal a woman who has been plagued with a blood disease for 12 years
restore sight to the blind
make a mute person speak

How many people do you know that can do all of those things...as well as give his followers the authority to do the very same things? Wouldn't you be absolutely amazed if you had seen those things happen?

Pretty incredible stuff, huh? His name is Jesus of Nazareth, aka Jesus the Christ (Messiah), aka your Lord and Savior, if you get to know him.

One thing to remember, though: He doesn't settle for 2nd place. Either you place him in your priority list as first and foremost, king of kings, lord of lords, or you tell him to take a hike. No middle ground with this guy. He wants your all...and he deserves it too.
