Let’s continue our theme about Jesus finding things in imperfect people to praise and encourage! I wanted to turn to Peter for the next event because Peter has so many successes and so many failures! I want to highlight some of Peter’s failures so that everyone will know that our failures and sins do not set us […]
I saw the movie the Son of God last night. I was impacted by the gritty-ness of the times that Jesus lived in. I think we forget how harsh those times were along with many other times in history. I forget how graphic and violent was Jesus’ giving of His body to pay for the […]
Instead of my regular post for last week, I wanted to send out a quick post about the movie Son of God that is hitting all the theaters this next Friday February the 28th 2014.
Last post we started the subject of Jesus’ earthly reign as the King or President of all nations. That post was the foundation of this subject. If you missed it you can find it here: http://godisjustlikejesus.blogspot.com/2014/01/jesus-earthy-king-or-president-of-all.html. In these posts I want to do two things. First, I want to define Jesus’ Kingdom on the earth (not […]
As you probably know, these weekly emails focus on Jesus’ good character during His three and a half years of public life. We study many aspects of Jesus’ character from His compassion to clean anger and also cover His protection, approachability and self-control among others. As we study these elements of Jesus’ character, we realize […]

You will find it attached as a PDF document or you can surf to our web site at http://GodIsJustLikeJesus.com and find it on the Home Page. Please share with anyone you desire! Below […]
Pardon me, but this week I am going to have to rush by the Angel of the Lord meeting with Gideon, Joshua and others so that I might get us to two encounters with Jesus before Christmas. I will come back to these others in the New Year.
Strangely, the series we are working on presently is in fact a “Christmas” theme. We are considering who Jesus is eternally. We want to get more insight into His true identity. It is one thing to think about Jesus becoming a human baby. We celebrate this during Christmas. However, the more we get detailedknowledge about His life before He […]
Today I want to build on the last two posts. Two weeks ago, we reviewed Jesus’ statement in John 8:58 where He declares that He existed and was alive before Abraham was even born! (Wow, what a declaration!) Last week we looked at Jesus’ statement that He is the One who has been sending all […]
Let’s continue looking at the combination of Jesus’ divinity and His humility! I am combining these two aspects of Jesus because it inspires awe and worship! In Matthew 23:34 Jesus says something, almost in passing, as He is confronting the Pharisees about the gravest deception and hypocrisy imaginable. The Pharisees are deceiving the people of God […]
