Jesus Christ reveals himself 
              in many ways in the Holy Bible.

                                 He is...

                           The Messiah, 
                 for God so loved the world 
              he gave his only begotten son 
               that whoever believes in him 
       shall not perish but have everlasting life. 

                   The Good Shepherd 
                           who leads us 
                   in a path of righteousness.

                         The Advocate, 
                 who pleads for the mercy 
      of our souls before God on Judgment Day. 

                     The Alpha And Omega, 
            for he's the beginning and the end 
  In him, everything finds it's genesis and destiny.

                       The Man of Sorrows,
              for he took our pain and suffering 
             to the cross and died for our sins.

                       The Lamb of God, 
                   for the sins of the world 
               he sacrificed his life and blood 
                        for our prosperity.

                         The Bread of Life,
              he offered up his flesh and blood 
         for all mankind. When we eat and drink 
             of him, all our sins are forgiven. 

                               The Door, 
                       for only through him 
                           we reach God 
                  and the kingdom of heaven.

                               The Teacher, 
                            a powerful oracle. 
                  He gives us sinners the insight 
                and wisdom to live a faithful life.

                               The Savior, 
                         he delivers us sinners 
                     from the clutches of Satan 
                 and bathes us in the Holy Spirit..
