A simple question which
can be asked of Christians and people of other faith is “Who is Jesus to you?” To be frank, this
question can be dug as deep as one will like and answers can be awakening. A
thousand of follow-up questions can be asked and after which, different
responses can be felt by the questioner.
As I think about my own
answers to this simple question, I agree with my fellow brothers and sisters in
Christ that Jesus is my Savior. However, isn’t this just a model answer? Can a person of a different faith answer this
question with “Jesus is the Savior of the World.”?
Sure, he can.
The more I think about
this, the more I realize that to know Jesus more intimately takes effort. One follow up question can be, “Am I making this effort?”
If yes, how?
If no, what am I going
to do about it?
Folks, looks like to
live out this verse John 17:3 – to know the Only True GOD and Jesus Christ Whom
He has sent is not as simple as praying the Sinner’s Prayer and live as an
auto-pilot Christian. Let’s wake up and be alert to the fact that we all need
to continue to walk closely with Jesus like what Enoch had modeled for us in
Genesis 5:24!
