Jesus Christ is the same yesterday and today and for ever. (Hebrews 13:8)

Jesus has a past
John 1 1-2. In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God.
John 8:58 Jesus said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I am.”


Jesus felt and showed compassion.
Matthew 9:36When he saw the crowds, he had compassion for them, because they were harassed and helpless, like sheep without a shepherd.

Jesus healed many
Matthew 4:24So his fame spread throughout all Syria, and they brought him all the sick, those afflicted with various diseases and pains, those oppressed by demons, epileptics, and paralytics, and he healed them.

Christ died….

1 Peter 3:18
18 For Christ also suffered once for sins, the righteous for the unrighteous, to bring you to God. He was put to death in the body but made alive in the Spirit.
….While we were still sinners.
Romans 5:8But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us

Now alive!
Rev 1:17-18
17 When I saw him, I fell at his feet as though dead. Then he placed his right hand on me and said: “Do not be afraid. I am the First and the Last. 18 I am the Living One; I was dead, and now look, I am alive for ever and ever! And I hold the keys of death and Hades.

He lives for ever to pray for us

Heb 7 24-26
24 but because Jesus lives forever, he has a permanent priesthood. 25 Therefore he is able to save completely those who come to God through him, because he always lives to intercede for them.
26 Such a high priest truly meets our need—one who is holy, blameless, pure, set apart from sinners, exalted above the heavens.

He will return
Rev 22 12-13
12 “Look, I am coming soon! My reward is with me, and I will give to each person according to what they have done. 13 I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End.
