Jesus was more than a good man or a respected teacher. Only Jesus was the true son of the Father who was perfect in every way. Only Jesus could pay the penalty for our sins on the cross. He is the Law fulfilled. He is the perfect high priest who makes atonement for our sins before the Father.
May we treasure Christ above everything else!
