TRUST IN JESUS, WHOSE WORKS NEVER END

John 21:25

“Jesus did many other things as well. If every one of them were written down, I suppose that even the whole world would not have room for the books that would be written.”

If you are a careful reader of the Bible, you’ll notice that the four Gospels — Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John — all share similar accounts about our Lord Jesus Christ. But you’ll also notice that even though they have much in common, each Gospel contains unique stories not found in the others.

For example, some events are found only in the Gospel of Matthew, others only in Luke, and still others only in John.

Examples:

• The Samaritan Woman who met Jesus at the well is only found in the Gospel of John. You won’t find it in Matthew, Mark, or Luke. If the Gospel of John had never been written, we might have missed such a powerful and important lesson from that story.

• The resurrection of Lazarus, which Jesus performed, is also recorded only in John. None of the other Gospels mention it.

• Another miracle — when Jesus raised the only son of a widow in the town of Nain as he was being carried to the grave — is found only in Luke 7:11-17. Jesus raised the young man from his coffin, and the whole town was filled with awe.

• Then there’s a unique event recorded only in Matthew — the resurrection of saints who had fallen asleep and entered the holy city after Jesus’ death on the cross (Matthew 27:51-53). If Matthew hadn’t written it, we would never have known about it.

And there are many more events like these — found in one Gospel but not the others. So imagine if every Apostle or person who personally knew Jesus had written down all they saw and heard from Him during His time on earth — we would surely have heard of truly astounding and even shocking things.

That’s why the Bible says:

John 21:25

“Jesus did many other things as well. If every one of them were written down, I suppose that even the whole world would not have room for the books that would be written.”

Today, there are millions of books published around the world. New ones are being printed every second. Yet with all of these, the world is still not full. For the world to be truly “full of books,” it would mean the streets themselves would be covered with books — and every book telling a different story (not just copies).

Now think: how many things did Jesus do?
Every second, He was performing a miracle. Every second, He was delivering a prophetic word. If Mary, His mother, were to write down everything she witnessed — from His birth to His ascension — she could easily write 2,000 volumes. The same could be said if Joseph (His earthly father) had written about Him.

Even Pilate’s wife, who saw Jesus in a dream the night before the crucifixion and warned her husband that Jesus was innocent, could have written two books from that one dream alone if given the chance.

The soldiers who witnessed His resurrection surely had much to say. If they had written down their experiences, we might be reading things even more astonishing than what we already know occurred at the tomb.

And even today, if everyone wrote down just a few things Jesus has done in their lives, how many books would be printed worldwide? Billions.

So how can we not trust in someone so full of endless, powerful works?

No human being has ever done as many things as Jesus did. If no one compares to Him, then Jesus is the one we should trust. Even now, the most talked about person in the world — from 2,000 years ago to today — is Jesus Christ.

So I encourage you, who trust in Jesus — never think, even for a moment, of seeking help elsewhere, or from people whose life stories could barely fill one or two books — and even those are often exaggerated.

But our Lord Jesus, during the short time He lived on earth, did so many things that even the whole world could not contain the books about Him. Jesus is the Prince of Life, our Strong Fortress, and the eternal foundation we can rely on. He is our Rock, Refuge, Hope, Shelter, and our first and last Help.

If you have not yet received Him, you are in great danger.

So it’s wise to make a decision quickly, before your time on earth comes to an end. Repent, and He will forgive you freely. Consider this: salvation was bought at a great price, yet it’s offered to you so simply. Just repent and follow Him, and He will lift the heavy burden of sin from your life and give you the hope of eternal life.

God bless you greatly.
