There is none like Jesus – he is the only God in any religion who became one of us, and he did it to save us.
From the heartbeat of Simon Ponsonby’s faith comes this beautiful reflection on the personhood of Jesus Christ. Journeying through the Scriptures, Ponsonby encourages us to come back to our first love and remember what originally drew us to the engaging second person of the majestic, loving, triune God. In our busy lives we can get easily distracted. None Like Jesus reminds us how to hold Jesus before us as he really is – the God-made-flesh who stands without comparison or competition, and to worship him as our precious Lord and Saviour. So much of life imitates and iterates itself, but not this one man. As Simon says, “no one can hold a candle to the Light of the World”. There is so much in the life of Jesus that was completely new, and will never happen again. Jesus, in perfect harmony with the Father and the Spirit, the divine creator of the universe, became human flesh, to live an exceptional, morally perfect, miraculous, awe-inspiring life. Not only his life, but his death too, was completely different to any other. The grave could not hold him. Death could not defeat him. And there’s more. So much more.
Take some time to unwrap this Jesus, to marvel at his uniqueness, to praise him who is beyond compare.
