~ Jesus Christ Is Our Fully Capable
Savior ~
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).
In the Book
of Zephaniah Jesus Christ is the Lord who is Mighty to Save—He is His People’s
Savior! He is also pleading for revival
and He is the Executor of Judgment, followed by eternity with the Savior. He is the Lord in our midst and the Righteous
Branch.
Jesus Christ
in Zephaniah is the Merciful Christ (Messiah).
“Sing, O daughter of Zion! Shout, O Israel!
Be
glad and rejoice with all your heart, O daughter of Jerusalem! The Lord has taken
away your judgments, He has cast out your enemy.
The
King of Israel, the Lord, is in
your midst; you shall see disaster
no more” (Zephaniah 3:14-15).
Comment
~ We have only touched the
surface of Christ in the Book of Zephaniah.
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).
