RECOGNIZE JESUS As Jesus approached Jerusalem, He began to cry, because He loved Jerusalem. Speaking to the city, He stated it could not now receive “PEACE” [Lk 19:42], as Jesus provides peace. He then began describe prophetically how Jerusalem would be destroyed, over thirty-five years before it actually happened. Concluding with the reason for Jerusalem’s destruction punishment, “BECAUSE YOU DID NOT RECOGNIZE THE TIME OF YOUR VISITATION” [Lk 19:44 NAS]. God provided His son Jesus for Jerusalem then and for us today. To recognize God’s gift, Jesus is available for everyone who “BELIEVES IN HIM” [Jn 3:16], enabling us to be saved and have eternal life. Do you recognize Jesus, as your savior?  Home, Basic,  Subjects, Scriptures
