Jesus is the same Yesterday, Today & Tomorrow | Sean Finch | 18th February 2024

Family Church Portsmouth

Today, Pastor Sean begins to unpack the meaning behind Christology - that aspect of our faith relating to the person, nature and work of Jesus Christ. This is all part of our overall theme of being deeply rooted. Sean mentions how the word Christology comes from two words “Christ,” referring to Jesus, and “-ology,” meaning "the study of", ie the study of Christ, both Jesus as a person and His works.

We are called to be rooted deeply into relationship with Christ, with lives overflowing with His goodness. So it follows we need to study who Jesus is....which is the subtitle for this weeks' message. We need to know who Jesus is, understand his truths so we can walk in His fullness.

Hebrews 13:8 (NIV) states "Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and forever". Sean speaks about how Jesus was, is and is now, before the beginning of time and how Old Testament scriptures foretell His life in the New Testament. Equally, in order that we are not deceived by the many false doctrines, teachings etc of this world, it is essential we understand the true nature of Jesus. Knowing about Him is not enough , we need to actually be in relationship with Him for ourselves, have a revelation of Him in our lives.

Ps Sean challenges us to delve deeper into our bibles, read the Word to know more of Him. as the scriptures say (John 1), he is the Word made flesh.
