WHO IS JESUS CHRIST?

 Jesus Christ is God in human form. This is a story from the Bible about how Jesus was conceived. “Now in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent by God to a city of Galilee named Nazareth, to a virgin betrothed to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David. The virgin's name [was] Mary. And having come in, the angel said to her, "Rejoice, highly favored [one], the Lord [is] with you; blessed [are] you among women!" But when she saw [him], she was troubled by what he is saying, and considered what manner of greeting this was. Then the angel said to her, "Do not be afraid, Mary, for you have found favor with God. "And behold, you will conceive in your womb and bring forth a Son, and shall call His name JESUS.” Then Mary said to the angel, "How can this be, since I do not know a man?" And the angel answered and said to her, "[The] Holy Spirit will come upon you, and the power of the Highest will overshadow you; therefore, also, that Holy One who is to be born will be called the Son of God.”  Luke 1:26-31,34,35. Jesus is called the Son of God, the Holy One, because the Holy Spirit, God’s Spirit, caused Maria to conceive and give birth to Jesus Christ. Everybody close to Maria knew that Jesus is the human form of Yahweh, or God, who came to earth to set them and us free from the grip of Satan. 
“Now after Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king, behold, wise men from the East came to Jerusalem, saying, "Where is He who has been born King of the Jews? For we have seen His star in the East and have come to worship Him." When Herod the king heard [this], he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him. Matthew 2:1-3. Herod wanted to kill Jesus, the King of the Jews. “And when he had gathered all the chief priests and scribes of the people together, he inquired of them where the Christ was to be born. Then Herod, when he had secretly called the wise men, determined from them what time the star appeared. And he sent them to Bethlehem and said, "Go and search carefully for the young Child, and when you have found [Him], bring back word to me, that I may come and worship Him also." When they heard the king, they departed; and behold, the star which they had seen in the East went before them, till it came and stood over where the young Child was. When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceedingly great joy. And when they had come into the house, they saw the young Child with Mary His mother, and fell down and worshiped Him. And when they had opened their treasures, they presented gifts to Him: gold, frankincense, and myrrh. Then, being divinely warned in a dream that they should not return to Herod, they departed for their own country another way.” Matthew 2:4,7,8-12. These wise men from the East traveled all the way to Bethlehem in Judea following the star ahead of them until they found the place where Jesus was born. When they saw the STAR, Jesus, they were exceedingly happy! Maria and Joseph, her husband, knew that Jesus was God in human form. The wise men from the East knew that the Child was not an ordinary Child. And Herod believes that the Child will become the “King of the Jews”, and that's why he wanted to kill Him.
Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil. And when He had fasted forty days and forty nights, afterward He was hungry. Now when the tempter came to Him, he said, "If You are the Son of God, command that these stones become bread." But He answered and said, "It is written, `Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God.'" Then the devil took Him up into the holy city, set Him on the pinnacle of the temple, and said to Him, "If You are the Son of God, throw Yourself down. For it is written: `He shall give His angels charge over you,' and, `In [their] hands they shall bear you up, Lest you dash your foot against a stone.'" Jesus said to him, "It is written again, `You shall not tempt the LORD your God.'" Again, the devil took Him up on an exceedingly high mountain, and showed Him all the kingdoms of the world and their glory. And he said to Him, "All these things I will give You if You will fall down and worship me." Then Jesus said to him, "Away with you, Satan! For it is written, `You shall worship the LORD your God, and Him only you shall serve.'" Then the devil left Him, and behold, angels came and ministered to Him.” Matthew 4:1-11.
Satan knew that Jesus is God in human form. Do we Christians, the new born Christians, know that Jesus is God in human form? No, we don’t know. If we know, why would we treat Jesus like crap, the Jesus whom we say had died to pay for our sins. If we know that Jesus is God in human form, we would not dare to change His laws, or abolish His commandments. If we know that Jesus is God in human form, we would be obedient to Jesus, follow and worship Jesus, our Shepherd, and not Paul. Why? Because most Christians are following the wrong Shepherd. The apostle Paul is too smart for most of us. Who  is Paul? He was one of Jesus’ apostles who wrote, “For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; [it is] the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.” Ephesian 2:8-9. The majority of the newborn Christians believe that they are saved by faith alone. No, we are not saved by faith only. Read what Paul wrote in Romans, “But in accordance with your hardness and your impenitent heart you are treasuring up for yourself wrath in the day of wrath and revelation of the righteous judgment of God, who "will render to each one according to his deeds": eternal life to those who by patient continuance in doing good seek for glory, honor, and immortality;” Romans 2:5-7. God will judge us by our deeds, by our work. Why? Because our deeds is proof of our faith. We should read Ephesians 2:8-9 and Romans 2:5-7 together, at the same time, to understand what Paul wrote. The Apostle James said that faith without work is dead. James 2:14-26. Jesus' death is not going to save anyone from burning in hell, none!
Jesus died to set us free from the grip of Satan. Setting us free from the grip of Satan is not the same as giving us a free ride to heaven! Jesus died as a martyr. He did not die to pay for our sins. Jesus is not interested in paying for our sins, or to die to pay for our sins. Jesus said, "If your right eye causes you to sin, pluck it out and cast [it] from you; for it is more profitable for you that one of your members perish, than for your whole body to be cast into hell. And if your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off and cast [it] from you; for it is more profitable for you that one of your members perish, than for your whole body to be cast into hell.” Matthew 5:29-30. This shows that Jesus wants us to take care of our own sins. He gave us various ways to receive forgiveness of our sins. They are found in the Gospel of Jesus, the first four books of the New Testament.
Jesus said to Thomas,  "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. "If you had known Me, you would have known My Father also; and from now on you know Him and have seen Him." Philip said to Him, "Lord, show us the Father, and it is sufficient for us." Jesus said to him, "Have I been with you so long, and yet you have not known Me, Philip? He who has seen Me has seen the Father; so how can you say, `Show us the Father'? "Do you not believe that I am in the Father, and the Father in Me? The words that I speak to you I do not speak on My own [authority]; but the Father who dwells in Me does the works.” John 14:6-10. Brothers and sisters, don't fall for the Trinity concept. It was developed by Tertullian who wrote about the Trinity concept long after the disciples were dead. It was never part of the Bible.
What reward did Jesus get from us for dying on the cross to pay for our sins? We rewarded Him with crap. Don't we know that Jesus is God in human form? Finally, Jesus said that we cannot serve more than one master. We cannot serve God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit equally without discriminating one or two of them. Jesus wants us to serve Him ONLY!
"No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and love the other, or else he will be loyal to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon.” Matthew 6:24. No one can serve Jesus (God) and the Apostle Paul, or Jesus (God) and Money, or anything else. I know this is difficult for some Christians to understand, but that is what Jesus said. Don’t let Tertullian, or anyone else confuse us with the Trinity concept. The Trinity idea is only for the Church to make money. Jesus wants us to serve Him only! Why? Because He is the only God!
