Description
"Who is Jesus?" is the most important question which any of us must face. Our answer to that question will determine not only the way we live in this world but also our eternal destiny. This booklet sets out in a clear, understandable way the reasons why we should believe Jesus's claims to be the Son of God. That Jesus of Nazareth was a real historical person is a well-attested fact. The evidence for His existence is greater than that for many historical figures, e.g. Julius Caesar. Yet many today would deny that He was truly Man. Because He is fully Man, yet at the same time fully God, He alone is the Saviour of the world. "Why do you call Me 'Lord, Lord,' and do not do the things which I say?" (Luke 6:46) are the telling words of Jesus. This booklet sets out the biblical view of the Lordship of Christ and challenges us to examine our response to His Lordship. Who controls the church? In today's world, it is vital to have a biblical answer to this important question. The Lord Jesus is Head of His church, His body, controlling and directing it by His Holy Spirit. A church that does not answer to its Head is as lifeless as a headless body.

Persons
Cor Bruins has more than 40 years experience in the Lord's service and in Bible study. Some of that time was spent in serving the Lord in Egypt and the Lebanon. During that time, he experienced at first hand the opposing views of other nationalities and religions on the person of Christ. He writes out of that experience. David Pulman spent most of his working life with British Gas. Throughout this time, he was active in Bible camp work and in teaching and preaching. He took early retirement so as to have more time for the Lord's service. He is currently engaged also in a literature ministry to third world countries. Peter Ollerhead worked as a draughtsman at Rolls Royce Motor Cars in Crewe. He subsequently trained as a primary school teacher, teaching in the Staffordshire Potteries. Now retired, he spends his time in serving the Lord and maintains his interest in valuing and dealing in second-hand books, particularly in this area of the work of Scripture Truth Publications. George Bell (1922-2004) was originally from Tyneside. His job as a college lecturer in engineering led him to West Drayton and then to Birmingham. In his later years he settled in Ipswich with his family. He was much respected for his manner of life and as a Bible teacher both locally and nationally.
