Why Jesus?

God cares about the hungry,
God cares about the poor,
God is concerned with the problems of this world.

Yet instead of sending food
And instead of sending clothing
And instead of fixing all that was wrong
God sent his son, Jesus, to make right our
Relationship with our Creator.

God was more concerned about the problem of sin separating humanity from
the true love, nature, and character of God
Than God was about a quick fix to the wrongs, injustices, and inadequacies of this world.

(because)

A right relationship with God
(forgiveness of sins that allows us to get a glimpse of God's infinite
goodness, mercy, and grace)
will compel God's children to

Feed the hungry (and)
Clothe the poor (and)
Work together
(as God's hands and feet on earth)
to alleviate the wrongs, injustices, and inadequacies of this world.
