Bridgeman Downs | Andrew McGruther - Jesus is a Miracle-Worker | Who Is This Man

At the time of Easter, we turn our attention toward Jesus as we pause to reflect on the

profound impact He had during His time on earth. Crowds followed Him, leaders

questioned Him, disciples left everything for Him, and enemies sought to silence Him.

In every instance, the same underlying question can be found: Who is this man?

Through His words and works, Jesus revealed His identity. He spoke with authority,

performed miracles and made bold declarations about Himself through I AM

statements. He claimed to be the Bread of Life, the Light of the World, the Good

Shepherd, and the Resurrection and the Life. It’s clear Jesus desired everyone to receive

the revelation of His identity and how that identity defined the events that took place

which we remember at Easter.

One of those events being His crucifixion where even a hardened Roman soldier

standing at the foot of the cross was moved to declare, “Surely this man was the Son of

God.” This Easter season invites us to ask the same question for ourselves. Who is this

man, Jesus? As we answer the question through this series, we are inviting our church to

respond with faith, awe, confidence and renewed devotion.
