What was it about the life of Jesus of Nazareth that made Him so remarkable? How could a Man who was raised in an obscure village, have a public ministry of only three years, and die the death of a criminal, have such an ongoing worldwide impact nearly 2,000 years after He walked on earth? The answer is in today’s passage. Jesus was Immanuel. God with us. After His amazing declaration in John 14:6, Jesus revealed Himself as God with us in three profound ways.
Jesus revealed His Person to us, vv. 7-11.
Jesus revealed His power in us, v. 12.
Jesus revealed His promise for us, vv. 13-14.
Is Jesus Immanuel to you? Not just God on your side, but is He God — personally present and active in your life?
