Freshman year, I asked my religion professor, "Who is Jesus?" He had so turned my Sunday School faith upside down that I was at a spiritual crisis. He had destroyed any faith I thought I had going into college. So I had to ask him straight up, "Who is Jesus?"
He went on for about a half hour and to this day, I still have no idea what he said. (Secretly, I think he took great delight in shaking the faith of freshmen.)
The devotional today focuses on who Jesus is. Before we move on with The Master's Plan, we had better have a clearer answer than my religion professor. Mark 9:7 has the answer. Jesus is the Son of God, God in the flesh, born of a woman, died on the cross to take away the sins of the world. "Listen to him."
"Who is Jesus?" If it takes a half hour of philosophical jargon that confuses a freshman to answer that question, it's time to return to scripture to see what the Bible proclaims who Jesus is.
