Scripture Studies of Jesus

The following questions form the basis for this study. 

1. What does the text say about Jesus?
2. How is this passage relevant to us today? 
3. Who is Jesus? People can easily give the "right" answer: “He is Lord”, “Saviour”, “God.” But  what are the implications for our lives? For example, we can give the answer Jesus is "Saviour", but still try and save ourselves from trouble we get into.
4. How has this message been passed on to you? - See 2 Tim 1:5, 2 Tim 3:14-17, for an example of the message of scripture being passed on from one generation to another.
