Christian Talk - Who Is Jesus Christ? The Bible Is Very Clear On The Issue.
Although there are some bright spots, recent research indicates too many believers do not adequately understand Christian doctrine, and many unbelievers are confused and remained unconvinced about the Christian faith.

Just how bad was our condition before God intervened through Jesus Christ- The Bible informs us it was worse than we ever imagined. Today on The Truth Pulpit, Pastor Don Green looks closely at that condition in a message titled, The Plight of Man - the Power of God. --https---www.thetruthpulpit.com-
Part 2: Can I Trust the Bible as Relevant to the Church Today? No one reads all of the Bible literally. We all make choices about what to not take out of its original contexts. Proverbs 13:24; 1 Peter 3:3; Numbers 5:14-16 The parts that we read differently - more or less literal - than others should be areas we discuss and allow the Bible to open the door to greater relationship with Jesus Christ and others. Those discussions and interpretations became the Midrash to the Jewish people and continue to evolve with time. The point of the Bible is not to give us all the laws but to open the door to the salvation of the WORD of God, Jesus Christ. The Bible includes less ‘laws’ to make life perfect and get us to Heaven and more invitations to understand God, God’s Love, and grow in our image of God. This helps us mature in God’s love. How do we read the Bible? We ask 3 Questions when trying to understand the Bible. Question #1 - What did this passage mean to the first people who heard it? To understand what the Bible literally means we must know what it literally meant to the first people who heard it. Did John 1:1-29 mean more to 1st century Christians than Jesus Christ was God who became one of us, loved us, and died to take away our sins so we could be part of his family? YES! Through John 1 Christians followed Jesus Christ into physically loving the good creation, creatures, and people He created. He was now one with them all. Question 2: What does it still mean to the Church today? I believe the more the Church asks Question #1 the more fascinating and relevant the Bible and the Living Body of Christ becomes to the world in 2020. Let’s review from 1/19/2020… Part 1: ...As the WORD of God? What does the Bible say about Jesus Christ? The Bible identifies Jesus Christ as the WORD of God that was in the beginning, God with us in the water of our lives, and the crucified, resurrected redeemer of all creation. (John 1:1, 1:14; Genesis 1:26-27; Acts 6:7; Hebrews 4:12-13; Revelation 19:13). What does Scripture say about itself? Scripture and Creation can be trusted to connect us to the WORD and to our neighbor. (Psalm 1:2-3, Psalm 19:1-4, Romans 1:20, 2 Timothy 3:15-17, Matthew 7:12, Matthew 22:37-40) In reading Scripture, we keep our eyes on the message and our relationship with the WORD. Do not get distracted with the facts and details. They are important but not the priority. (Hebrews 12:1-2) Jesus Christ uses the Bible to knock at the door of your heart and through the Bible wants to come in and camp out with you! (Revelation 3:20)
Can I Trust the Bible as the Word of God? January 19, 2020 What does the Bible say about Jesus Christ? The Bible identifies Jesus Christ as the WORD of God that was in the beginning, God with us in the water of our lives, and the crucified, resurrected redeemer of all creation. (John 1:1, 1:14; Genesis 1:26; Acts 6:7; Hebrews 4:12-13; Revelation 19:13) What does Scripture say about itself? Scripture and Creation can be trusted to connect us to the WORD and to our neighbor. (Psalm 1:2-3, Psalm 19:1-4, Romans 1:20, 2 Timothy 3:15-17, Matthew 7:12, Matthew 22:37-40 ) Church of the Nazarene Manual Definition We believe in the plenary inspiration of the Holy Scriptures, by which we understand the 66 books of the Old and New Testaments, given by divine inspiration, inerrantly revealing the will of God concerning us in all things necessary to our salvation, so that whatever is not contained therein is not to be enjoined as an article of faith. How do we read the Bible? Absolutely no one reads all of the Bible literally. We all choose which Scriptures were not meant to be read literally today. Then how do we know what is really true? Can we trust the Bible? If we believe Genesis, we believe the author of all creation - all truth - is God. Truth should never frighten us but draw us closer to the WORD of God. John 8:31-32. The 1st question we ask when reading the Bible is, 'What did it mean to the first people who wrote and heard it?' Every book of the Bible was written to people first and then second to help the individual know their role in that group. Matthew 22:37-40. In reading Scripture, we keep our eyes on the message and our relationship with the WORD. Do not get distracted with the facts and details. They are important but not the priority. Jesus Christ uses the Bible to knock at the door of your heart and through the Bible wants to come in and camp out with you! Yes, you can trust the Bible. Jesus Christ waits to connect with you through the Scriptures.
‘Why’ should we trust in Jesus Christ? The Bible tells us that salvation is found only in him. He is the ultimate prophet, priest and king. He is fully God and fully man. He is the only mediator between the God and man. We need him, and no-one else. Watch: https://youtu.be/tYAm3_SZETE

Beginning with the song 'Sal Tlay Ka Siti' from The Book of Mormon Musical Matthew & James discuss the importance of thinking about how Christians explain the gospel and the dangers of misrepresentation.
