What manner of man is Jesus?


But the men marvelled, saying, What manner of man is this, that even the winds and the sea obey him!( Matthew 8:27)
A man is well known by his name and titles. His names tell more about his potentials, mission and glory. For a example a Mr. Goodman, may also have other titles such as “Chop Money, Doctor, Dribbler etc” Mr. Goodman would always want to protect his name so he would want to be kind to people. If you want his kindnesses just call him Mr. Goodman. And as one of his other titles is Doctor, which means he knows about medicines and you would want to call him when you are sick or need some medical help. But when you are in need of some financial help, you would want to call him by his other title “Chop Money” and he will splash some money on you if not much but at least his penny will drop in your pocket. Even when you are playing the game of soccer and you need some great skills to unlock the opposition’s defense you can only think about Mr. Dribbler and the moment you invite him to your team your problem will be solved, because he will dribble his way to goal. Whenever my Mother wants some special assistance from me she would just be calling me by the name that is appropriate for her needs. Whenever she wants me to fix something in the house she would call me Taiwan, at that time I would sit and began to fix almost everything. Whenever she wants me to give her a ride to the market, she would call me her husband’s brother, then at that time I will be on the wheel waiting for her without saying a word.
But there is a Man Called Jesus Christ which means the savior. He is also known as the great Advocate :… these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous: And he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for [the sins of] the whole world.( 1 John 2:1-2). Have you sinned? Of cause yes for it is written “all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;( Romans 3:23). All have sinned and have lost the glory, but there is something you can do to regain your glory today. Just call on the name of Jesus Christ The Great Advocate and confess your sins to Him only and accept Him into your life as your personal Lord and Savior and He will restore your glory and restore you back to God as it is written, “To whom God would make known what [is] the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles; which is Christ in you, the hope of glory:( Colossians 1:27). When he comes in to your life, He will reveal to you your glory and He will glorify you. And if he comes and discovers that your glory has been buried by the enemy He will shine upon you and your glory will come back to life. Therefore today I declare your lost glory to come back to life in Jesus name.
