Question answered…
Luke 20:41-44
Whose Son Is the Messiah?
41 Then Jesus said to them, “Why is it said that the Messiah is the son of David? 42 David himself declares in the Book of Psalms:
“‘The Lord said to my Lord:
“Sit at my right hand
43 until I make your enemies
a footstool for your feet.”’[c]
44 David calls him ‘Lord.’ How then can he be his son?”
I often wondered when I read these verses. Then I saw it over and over again. In order to fulfill prophecy, Jesus came into a lineage that would make Him the Son of David, the great king. But in reality, the birth of Jesus was a divine conception. God the Father of all is the actual father of Jesus Christ.
I know you have heard the story of the birth of Jesus before. By being of the bloodline of David, Jesus simply gave man what man needed. He fulfilled every prophecy in order for man to accept Him without question. Despite this, He was questioned, doubted, chastised, persecuted, humiliated and murdered. He did this for us.
We live in a time now where we can freely worship Jesus, without fear of death. Early Christians we killed and murdered just for spreading the Gospel. Yet, somehow many do not feel the urge to share with all. This is our calling. This is our duty. To be a living witness of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
Share today. Spread the Word. Time is running out. He is coming.
Amen.
