WordDigest: Why Jesus?
30.06.2017 LISTEN

"The Spirit of the Lord is on me, because he has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recover of sight for the blind, to set the oppressed free, to proclaim the year of the Lord's favor "

Luke 4:18-19 NIV
When Jesus Christ got to Nazareth, where He was brought up, He stood up to read some scriptures.

He was handed the book of prophet Isaiah where He read a scripture (Isaiah 61:1-2) similar to the main text under discussion.

Jesus came down from the third heavens to earth for five (5) reasons.

Interestingly the name Jesus contains (5) alphabets.

Let me hasten to add that in numerology, 5 stands for grace.

Jesus was, is and still the carrier of grace.
Why Jesus?
1. Jesus came to share the good news to the poor.
2. Jesus came to proclaim liberty to the captives.
3. Jesus came to heal the sick.

Be admonished.
