The Glory of Christ

Jesus Christ - "In infancy He startled a king.  In boyhood He puzzled the learned doctors.  In manhood He ruled the course of nature.  He walked upon the billows and hushed the sea to sleep.  He healed the multitudes without medicine and made no charge for His services.  He never wrote a book and yet all the libraries of the world could not hold the books about Him.  He never wrote a song, yet He has furnished the theme for more songs than all songwriters together.  He never founded a college, yet all the schools together cannot boast of as many students as He has.  He never practiced medicine an yet He has healed more broken hearts than all the doctors have healed broken bodies.  This Jesus Christ is the star of astronomy, the rock of geology, the lion and lamb of zoology, the harmonizer of all discords, and the healer of all diseases.  Throughout history great men have come and gone, yet He lives on.  Herod could not kill Him.  Satan could not seduce Him.  Death could not destroy Him and the grave could not hold Him."   - John MacArthur, Hebrews New Testament Commentary, pp. 9, 10.


Therefore God highly exalted him and bestowed on Him the name that is above every name, so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.  Philippians 2:9-11
