“What shall I do then with Jesus which is called Christ?" This question was asked by Pilate in the Bible. Do you know that this question must be answered by every individual, high or low, or of whatever race?
We must answer it as individuals, because God has proved the whole world guilty—both Jew and Gentile (Rom. 3:9). "That every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God." Rom. 3:19.
We must answer this question as individuals, because God the Father has provided in His Son a Savior for those whom He has proved guilty. "For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life." John 3:16.
The Lord Jesus Christ at the cross met every just and holy claim God had against sin and the sinner. "He was wounded for our transgressions, He was bruised for our iniquities.... All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the Lord hath laid on Him the iniquity of us all." Isa. 53:5, 6.
The work of redemption was finished at the cross. The great sin question was settled then; now is the SON question: What will you do with Jesus who is called Christ?
There is no getting away from this. You had better plead guilty to the charges that are against you and have this matter settled.
There is pardon for the guilty. You can meet Christ now as your Savior, or face Him after death as your Judge. "It is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment." Heb. 9:27.
What will you do then with Jesus? It is a divine, living Person, the SON OF GOD, who is before you. He is the One who said, "I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by Me." John 14:6.
"But as many as received Him [Christi], to them gave He power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on His name." John 1:12.
