~ Jesus Christ Is The Friend Closer
Than Any Family Member ~
The Bible is about Jesus Christ
~ “Jesus
said to them, ‘How foolish you are, and how slow of heart to believe all that
the prophets have spoken! Did not the
Christ have to suffer these things
and then enter His glory?’ And beginning
with Moses and all the Prophets, He explained to them what was said in all the
Scriptures concerning Himself” (Luke 24:25-27).
Jesus Christ in the Book of Philemon ~ He is
our substitute, our mediator, our faithful pastor, the controller of his
servants destiny, the Savior of slaves, and the Friend who sticks closer than
any family member.
Comment
~ We have only touched the
surface of Christ in the book of Philemon.
The Apostle Paul told us the Scriptures present many shadows of things
to come but the reality is found in Jesus Christ (Colossians 2:17).
