JESUS CHRIST'S AUTOBIOGRAPHY

WHO AM I?

 Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day: and he saw it, and was glad. Then said the Jews unto him thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham? Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you , Before Abraham was, I am (John 8:56-58).

And now, O Father, glorify thou me with thine own self with the glory which I had with thee before the world was (John 17:5).

WHO SENT ME?

And now, saith the LORD that formed me from the womb to be his servant, to bring Jacob again to him, Though Israel be not gathered, yet shall I be glorious in the eyes of the LORD, and my God shall be my strength (Isaiah 49:5).

Isaiah 61:1 The spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me; because the LORD hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound;

John 4:34 Jesus saith unto them, My meat is to do the will of Him that sent me, and to finish his work.

John 5;23 That all men should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father. He that honoureth not the Son honoureth not the Father which hath sent him.

V. 37 And the Father himself, which hath sent me, hath borne witness of me. Ye have neither heard his voice at any time, nor seen his shape.

WHY WAS I SENT?

"The spirit of the Lord GOD is upon me; because the LORD hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound; To proclaim the acceptable year of the LORD, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn; to appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that he might be glorified." (IS.61:1-3).

I came ...to call sinners to repentance (Luke 5:32).

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life (John 3:16).

I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world (6:51).

I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep (10:11).

As the Father knoweth me, even so know I the Father: and I lay down my life for the sheep (10: 15).

WHAT I WENT THROUGH TO SAVE YOU

 Psalm 22:12 Many bulls have compassed me: strong bulls of Bashan have beset me round.

13. They gaped upon me with their mouths, as a ravening and a roaring lion.

14. I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint: my heart is like wax; it is melted in the midst of my bowels.

15. My strength is dried up like a potsherd; and my tongue cleaveth to my jaws; and thou hast brought me into the dust of death.

16. For dogs have compassed me: the assembly of the wicked have enclosed me: they pierced my hands and my feet.

17. I may tell all my bones: they look and stare upon me.

18.  They part my garments among them, and cast lots upon my vesture.

69:7 Because for thy sake I have borne reproach; shame hath covered my face.

109: 25 I became also a reproach unto them: when they looked upon me they shaked their heads

Zech. 12:10 And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplications: and they shall look upon me whom they have pierced, and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for his firstborn.

Matth. 12: 40 For as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale's belly; so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.

16: 4 A wicked and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given unto it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas. And he left them, and departed.

17: 22 And while they abode in Galilee, Jesus said unto them, The Son of man shall be betrayed into the hands of men:

20:17 And Jesus going up to Jerusalem took the twelve disciples apart in the way, and said unto them,

18 Behold, we go up to Jerusalem; and the Son of man shall be betrayed unto the chief priests and unto the scribes, and they shall condemn him to death,

19 And shall deliver him to the Gentiles to mock, and to scourge, and to crucify him: and the third day he shall rise again.

20: 28 Even as the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many.

Luke 22: 19 And he took bread, and gave thanks, and brake it, and gave unto them, saying, This is my body which is given for you: this do in remembrance of me.

20 Likewise also (He took) the cup after supper, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood, which is shed for you.

John 3:14 And as Moses lifted up the serpent in the wilderness, even so must the Son of man be lifted up:

15 That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.

16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

17  For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.

John 6:51 I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.

John 10:11 I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.

15 As the Father knoweth me, even so know I the Father: and I lay down my life for the sheep.

16  other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear  

my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd.

17  Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might take it again.

18  No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father.

John 12: 19 Now I tell you before it come, that, when it is come to pass, ye may believe that I am he.

15: 13 Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.

DEATH COULD NOT DEFEAT ME

Ps.16: 9 Therefore my heart is glad, and my glory rejoiceth: my flesh also shall rest in hope.

Matt. 12:40 For as Jonas was three days and three nights in the whale's belly; so shall the Son of man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth.

16: 4 A wicked and adulterous generation seeketh after a sign; and there shall no sign be given unto it, but the sign of the prophet Jonas. And he left them, and departed.

21 From that time forth began Jesus to show unto his disciples, how that he must go unto Jerusalem, and suffer many things of the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised again the third day.

20: 19 And shall deliver him to the Gentiles to mock, and to scourge, and to crucify him: and the third day he shall rise again.

26: 32 But after I am risen again, I will go before you into Galilee.

Luke  24: 46 And as they thus spake, Jesus himself stood in the midst of them, and saith unto them, Peace be unto you.

John 2:19 Jesus answered and said unto them, Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.

20 Then said the Jews, forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days?

21 But he spake of the temple of his body.

16: 16 A little while, and ye shall not see me: and again, a little while, and ye shall see me, because I go to the Father.

I WILL GIVE YOU GLORY IF YOU ACCEPT MY SACRIFICE AND OBEY ME

John 3:16

 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
 

John 6:54
Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day.

Matthew 19:16-17

 And, behold, one came and said unto him, Good Master, what good thing shall I do, that I may have eternal life? And he said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God: but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments.
