Jesus is Lord and God

Jesus is Lord and God

“Then he got into the boat and his disciples followed him.  
Without warning, a furious storm came up on the lake, so that the waves swept over the boat. But Jesus was sleeping.  
The disciples went and woke him, saying, “Lord, save us! We’re going to drown!” 
He replied, “You of little faith, why are you so afraid?” Then he got up and rebuked the winds and the waves, and it was completely calm. 
The men were amazed and asked, “What kind of man is this? Even the winds and the waves obey him!” 
Matthew 8:23-27

Here Jesus calms the storm. This storm was so violent that even the seasoned fishermen that were in the boat with Jesus were afraid.
But notice they turn to Jesus to save them. They recognized he could save them and he did.
This passage shows that Jesus was Lord over all creation. To quote the disciples “even the winds and the waves obey him!”
John reminds us,
“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.  
He was with God in the beginning. 
Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made.” 
              John 1:1-3.
Sadly as in the days when Christ walked the earth many do not recognize him as Lord, God incarnate. John Stating,
“He was in the world, and though the world was made through him, the world did not recognize him.  
He came to that which was his own, but his own did not receive him.  
Yet to all who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God.”
                  John 1:10-12.
C. S. Lewis said of Jesus,
“A man who was merely a man and said the sort of things that Jesus said would not be a great moral teacher. He would either be a lunatic on the level of a man who says he is a poached egg—or else he would be the devil of hell. You must make your choice. Either this man was, and is, the son of God; or else a madman or something worse. You can shut Him up for a fool, you can spit at Him and kill Him as a demon; or you can fall at His feet and call Him Lord and God. But let us not come with any patronizing nonsense about His being a great human teacher. He has not left that open to us. He did not intend to.” 
The choice on who Jesus is ultimately comes down to you the individual.
Is he Lord and God the Saviour of mankind or is he not?
Think about it.
