It’s hard to get to know someone on a real level. In a world where people are more connected than ever before, getting a picture of who someone really is is harder than ever before. In our series, Jesus Is ________, we are going to look at three attributes of Jesus that will help us discover who Jesus really is. When we understand who Jesus really is, we’ll be able to see how he feels about us and what he desires for us.

 

Tonight is Baptism night at the ROCK! It’s one of the best nights of the year on its own, but we’re also talking about how Jesus is alive. This is significant on baptism night because we are not talking about how students put their faith in a savior that only died but one that rose from the dead and is alive. The fact that Jesus is alive changes everything for those of us who follow him. Jesus’ resurrection proved that he was God because only God could beat death. It proved that we could be forgiven of our sins. Finally Jesus being alive means that we can now really live… not in our sin, but in the righteousness that God has given to us through Jesus.
