like this man


The officers answered, “No one ever spoke like this man!”
John 7:46

Jesus spoke
Truth
With authority
Challenging pride
And false religion.
No one ever spoke like this man.

Jesus lived
The truth
With sympathy
Challenging our sin
And bringing grace.
No one ever lived like this man.

Jesus loved
The truth
And sinners
Accepting their repentance
And giving forgiveness.
No one ever loved like this man.

Jesus died
On a cross
Giving Himself
Exchanging His holiness
For our sin.
No one ever died like this man.

Jesus rose
Victorious
From the dead
Challenging death
Giving eternal life.
No one still lives like this man.
