So Who is Jesus? Is He just a man? John, His cousin, called
Him the Lamb of God. He is also called out advocate by the apostle John in 1
John 2:1. It was known to the prophets, particularly Jeremiah, that Jesus is
LORD (Lamentations 3:57,58) when Jeremiah writes, “Thou drawest near in the day
that I called upon thee and Thou saidest ‘Fear not’. Oh LORD Thou hast pleaded
the causes of my soul. Thou hast redeemed my life”. And Jesus is a man, as we
see Him pleading with God for us in John 17, not unlike Jonah in his plea for
the life of shipmates he did not know. He also took compassion on those who
knew Him not yet wanted to know Him, as He spoke to the thief on the cross and
promised him a place with Him.
