The Lord Jesus Christ

The Lord Jesus Christ is the central figure of all Christian reality; therefore, the truths about Him are central to Christianity. Any theology that deemphasizes Christ by placing humankind in the center cannot ultimately disclose to us the fullness of what the Bible teaches. Jesus is the fulfillment of many Old Testament prophecies, and He is the author of the teaching of the New Testament. He is understood by Christians to be the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world, as well as the coming King (Rev. 13:8; 19:11-16).
