When I wrote that Jesus "discovered" that He was the Christ at the age of twelve, I meant that He came to a more mature revelation of who He was, and what His purpose was. I'm sure that He knew long before then that He was the messiah, the chosen one, simply by what his parents must have told him as a child, and by the way that He was so different than other children. Who knows exactly how much He knew about Himself; the bible is not very descriptive about the depths of His revelation as the Christ when He was a young child. I just wanted to clear that up for you!nikkihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09635927678652955820noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10135932.post-1118291933798209412005-06-08T21:38:00.000-07:002005-06-08T21:38:00.000-07:00Wow, if people would only see the simple truth of ...Wow, if people would only see the simple truth of that message, huh? What a great topic, Jimmy. How do you find the time to keep your day job and write all of these deep thoughts?! I agree though with what you are saying here. We as a christianese society have completely "missed it" when it comes down to WHO Jesus really is and just what our relationship with Him should be. We have not learned to sit quietly before our Master and allow Him to teach and speak to us about the very deep and intimate things that He longs to share from His heart. We have not learned to be quiet and still; we always want to say what we THINK that Jesus is saying. We have missed some very powerful, yet simple truths about how Jesus had to experience life as a man and learn everything from scratch. He didn't have supernatural powers anymore than we have as His children living here on this earth today. He discovered at the age of twelve that He was the Christ and then spent many years praying to His Father, fasting and studying the Word of God to discover the love, character and authoritative power that is given to us by God. He had to battle the same feelings that we feel like doubt, worry and fear. We have the SAME power as Jesus if we would only take the time to learn from our Master; the ability to love the unlovely, lost hurting and broken. We have the power thru Jesus to bring love, respect, healing, unity among the brethren, compassion and the ability to perform miracles just like Jesus did while here on this earth!! I don't see too many of those types of people walking around - do you? So I agree, who is this Jesus that mainstream christians are claiming as their Lord and savior?nikkihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09635927678652955820noreply@blogger.com
