The Redeemer's Biography
. . . The Son of Man has nowhere to lay His head.
Matthew 8:20
No one can match the biography of Jesus Christ. He was born of a virgin and lived a sinless life. He shed His blood to purchase lost souls. He died on a cross and rose from the dead. He was so poor, He said of Himself that He had nowhere to lay His head. His only wallet was the mouth of a fish. He rode on another man’s beast. He cruised the lake in another man’s boat. He was buried in another man’s grave.
The Lord Jesus never founded a college to perpetuate His doctrines; yet His teachings have endured for over 2,000 years, and all the words that have been written about Him would fill thousands of libraries. He never studied medicine, yet He healed the sick. And the world still rejected Him.
Today even the calendar speaks of His death. Why is the calendar not dated from Mohammed’s flight, or from Buddha’s birth? Because Jesus Christ is the only One who has ever died for mankind. But He did not remain dead; He was raised to life and the power of His resurrection changed the world forever! Life for many people has lost its purpose and meaning. People are bored and fed up; they have no zest for living. But if anyone would submit to Jesus Christ, He will make them new. He will redeem what has been lost and will revive those who have no hope. The power of Christ’s resurrection saves and redeems. Jesus the Saviour is the only way to life everlasting (John 14:6).
