Jesus Christ as Savior
(From Forerunner Commentary)

John 17:4  (Go to this verse :: Verse pop-up) He says He had glorified the Father. Since the Son has returned to the Father in heaven, and the church is formed and joined to the Son as one organism, the church now has the responsibility to glorify the Father. How? By becoming one with Him just as the Son was—by the power of God's Spirit given to us. Christ glorified the Father by successfully completing the work the Father gave Him to do. He qualified to be our Savior, Redeemer, and High Priest, and along the way, He preached the gospel to others. Our responsibility is to yield to Him, allowing Him to form us into His image by growing, overcoming, producing fruit, and carrying out the works of the church as He assigns them. John W. Ritenbaugh All in All

Revelation 6:8  (Go to this verse :: Verse pop-up) Just imagine—one-fourth of mankind dying during a period described as only the beginning of sorrows (Matthew 24:8)! But we shoud not forget that man is bringing this horrible suffering and death upon himself. Jesus knew that man, left to his own devices, would so afflict himself and would ultimately destroy all life—unless something totally unforeseen occurred to stop it. That is why He has promised to intervene in world affairs. Jesus Christ is coming soon to rescue us from ourselves because man has just about reached the end of his rope! World Peace? Or World in Pieces?
