JOHN 10:10B
Jesus’ understanding of the wave of history was completely superb. There has never been anyone in history who has even come close to Him. He also died and rose from the dead, appeared to men, sent His Spirit to His disciples, and has transformed the lives of millions. Wherever you find the gospel, you find progress, freedom, liberty, family loyalty – all the things that human beings acknowledge as the desires of their hearts. It is not coincidental that the nations that have been characterized as “Christian” have surpassed the rest of the world for centuries in almost every measure of achievement.
Do we desire progress? Then we must desire Jesus. That name, which is above every other (Phil.2:9) is synonymous with progress.
