Jesus Christ started the Christian church and the first ministry on earth. He was God in the flesh. Jesus lived a holy life as He was set apart, and He won many people to His Father. While Jesus was on earth, He interacted with thousands of people. The way He treated all of them was very special, something to grasp at and explore. This insightful book will embark readers on a journey to see the basic decisions Jesus made in His relationships and what can be learned from His interactions with people.

Based on the Bible, scriptures will be illuminated as the author highlights verses that you may have read but didn't stand out to you, for you can read the Bible repeatedly and learn something new every time. And reading about the life of Jesus, God the Son, will enable you to feel God the Father's love.

Encouraging Scriptures

This is a list of encouraging scriptures that speak to me every time I read them. God speaks to us through scripture to encourage, guide and heal us in every way.

Isaiah 41:10–11

Do not fear [anything], for I am with you;

Do not be afraid, for I am your God.

I will strengthen you, be assured I will help you;

I will certainly take hold of you with My righteous right hand [a hand of justice, of power, of victory, of salvation].”

Indeed, all those who are angry with you will be put to shame and humiliated;

Those who strive against you will be as nothing and will perish.

John 15:1–2

I am the true Vine, and My Father is the vinedresser.

Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit, He takes away; and every branch that continues to bear fruit, He [repeatedly] prunes, so that it will bear more fruit [even richer and finer fruit].

Romans 5:3–5

And not only this, but [with joy] let us exult in our sufferings and rejoice in our hardships, knowing that hardship (distress, pressure, trouble) produces patient endurance; and endurance, proven character (spiritual maturity); and proven character, hope and confident assurance [of eternal salvation].

Such hope [in God’s promises] never disappoints us, because God’s love has been abundantly poured out within our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us.

Romans 8:10–11

If Christ lives in you, though your [natural] body is dead because of sin, your spirit is alive because of righteousness [which He provides].

And if the Spirit of Him who raised Jesus from the dead lives in you, He who raised Christ Jesus from the dead will also give life to your mortal bodies through His Spirit, who lives in you.

Psalm 93:1–2

firmly established, it cannot be moved.

Your throne is established from of old; You are from everlasting.

Ephesians 1:6–7

To the praise of His glorious grace and favor, which He so freely bestowed on us in the Beloved [His Son, Jesus Christ].

In Him we have redemption [that is, our deliverance and salvation] through His blood, [which paid the penalty for our sin and resulted in] the forgiveness and complete pardon of our sin, in accordance with the riches of His grace.

Philippians 4:6–7

Do not be anxious or worried about anything, but in everything [every circumstance and situation] by prayer and petition with thanksgiving, continue to make your [specific] requests known to God.

And the peace of God [that peace which reassures the heart, that peace] which transcends all understanding, [that peace which] stands guard over your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus [is yours].
