Jesus and Galactus share a few things in common, such as power etc. However there is something that they do not share in common. What is it? If they were to get into a battle, who would win?

Welcome

back to the 3rd

week of the Jesus Versus series. We are Redemption Church in Plano

Tx and we are glad to share the Word of God with you today.

In

the 1st

week we studied mercy as we imagined Jesus Versus Thanos.

Last

week, in week 2 we studied God’s activity as we witnessed Jesus

versus Uatu the Watcher.

Jesus

Vs

The

point of this fun comic book series is to remember that God will

fight for you.

Exodus 14:13-14 (NIV2011) Moses answered the people, “Do not be afraid. Stand firm and you will see the deliverance the Lord will bring you today. The Egyptians you see today you will never see again. The Lord will fight for you; you need only to be still.”

Jesus

has a BIG battle today. You saw the introductory video… Who is

Jesus fighting today?

Jesus Versus Galactus

Who is Galactus you say? Well, he is a cosmic entity, a god-like super-villain, and a main antagonist of the Marvel Universe.

Galactus

the devourer of worlds

Just

how powerful is Galactus…? Here are his abilities

Immeasurable

Cosmic Energy – Nearly omnipotent. Can shatter planets with energy

blasts.

Immortality

– said to be the oldest living entity. Comic lore says he was

created at the big bang that created the universe.

Invulnerability

– Immune to diseases, ailments, and toxins.

Size

Alteration – Can increase his size & mass.

Force-fields

– near-impenetrable energy shields.

Molecular

reconstruction, matter transmutation, teleportation, interdimentional

portals, telepathy, telekinesis, cosmic awareness, resurrection,

scentient life creation, soul control manipulation, power bestowal,

healing powers…

Galactus

is as big as he wants to be. He can grow to any size… big enough

to hold worlds… even entire galaxies in his hands. The smallest

Galactus can become is 10 ft 9 inches.

And

of course… I am burying the lead on Galactus. Here is the major

thing to know about Galactus – He eats worlds. He is big enough &

powerful enough to eat entire planets and all the inhabitants

therein. For this he is named Galactus: The Devourer of Worlds.

How

could Jesus ever face someone like the mighty devourer of worlds

Galactus?

Jesus

Versus Galctus

I

have been excited about this sermon for a while. Although Galactus

has never appeared in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, I think you can

count on seeing him in the future. He originally appears in

Fantastic Four issue #48 and has been an often re-occurring

character. You can’t really have a marvel universe without Galactus

devourer of worlds.

When

we first contemplated this villain for the series, I was sure I was

going to approach it as “savior of the world vs devourer of the

world.”

Savior

of the word versus devourer of the world
