Jesus, The Witness Who Loves

"And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth.  Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood."  Revelation 1:5.  Consider the One in whom we believe.  Is not our faith sure?  Jesus is faithful.  Jesus is the conqueror of death and the grave.  Jesus has all power, even over the powers of earth.  Jesus has loved us, and loves us still.  Jesus has washed away all of our sins.  This act of cleansing was with His own blood.  What greater act of love could have been shown?  Indeed, our faith is sure because the One in whom we place that faith has secured for us a relationship with Him.  Jesus has shown us God.  Jesus has given us the conquest of death.  Jesus has given us freedom from sin.  We can be certain about the revelation that God has sent through His Spirit.  The entire Bible is a word from God given unto us.  The word of revelation guides us and sustains us.  We believe it to be true because of Jesus Christ.  We accept the charge that is given us because of Jesus Christ.  No other one in all the annuals of human history has been able to do what has been done by Jesus Christ.  We stand and overcome because of the Witness who has loved us.
