Jesus is both God's spokesman and our representative to God.

Jesus is the leader and Lord of the church. True believers will follow Him as He cares for them and directs their way.

Christ is in His very nature God and all the fullness of that essence is in Him. He is worthy of our worship.

Jesus, the creator of wood, became a worker of wood, and died on the cross of wood (Galatians 3:13) for us.

Christ is the firstborn of the dead, the first-fruits of a new humanity, resurrected in new form. He is heir of all things.

Christ is truth in the flesh. His witness is always faithful. We can trust His word.

Christ had no beginning and has no end. He is the source of time, space and all creation.

Jesus was born on earth as a real human being. He entered space and time to become one of us so we might be with God forever.

Jesus is our opening to God. He is the only way to heaven.

Jesus is the cornerstone which the religious leaders rejected, but which God chose from eternity to build His house/temple of living stone.

Jesus is God's Chosen One, chosen for glory and great sacrifice. We, in Him, are God's chosen people.

Jesus is the brightest star in the heavens and the Light of the World. We shall not our way in His light.

Jesus is the bridegroom and His church is the bride. He is the head of the church and cares for her.

Jesus was born in Bethlehem, which means "the house of bread." He is our spiritual nourishment and the sustenance of the world.

Jesus is the offshoot of the line of David and paradoxically also the root. He is the vine on which we depend for life and nourishment.
