II. Why He Came

The purpose of Christ Jesus in the world was to save sinners (Luke 19:10) and bring them back to God (I Peter 3:18). True, Jesus was known as the Great Teacher, but that was not His main reason for coming.  He came so that He could pay the penalty of sin by dying on the cross.  He was our sacrifice. (John 3:16 "For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth on Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.")

III. His Actions

Jesus went about doing good (Act 10:38). He was constantly healing the crippled, blind, deaf, and the diseased, casting out devils. Seeking sinners was His main attraction. He had great compassion on the poor, and great warnings for the rich not to be entangled with their riches.

IV. His Promises for Those Left Behind

He promised never to leave nor forsake those left on earth to carry on and to fulfill the work he left them to do of getting out the gospel to the ends of the earth. He promised that if we would put His work first that He would supply them with food, clothes, and shelter (Matthew 6:33, Philippians 4:19).

V. His Promise To Come Again

He will come back to the earth again to rule, not only Israel but the whole world (Luke 1:32-33, Daniel 2:44).  He will return to earth to remove the curse from man, animal, and the earth (Romans8:21-24, Isaiah 11:9, Hab. 2:14).  He will remove anything and everything from the earth that would be contrary to His nature.  He will accomplish this by putting Satan into the Lake of Fire.  He promises then to create a new Heaven and a new earth wherein dwelleth righteousness.  (II Peter 3:13, Rev. 21-22)

Hallelujah!
