II. Jesus the Man
It is important for us to understand that Jesus lived His earthly life as a very ordinary and very normal man in most ways. He differed from other men primarily in that He had complete trust and confidence in God. He committed Himself wholly to God’s will and plan for His life. His example shows what any of us can do if we will make the same level of commitment to God. We will be able to do whatever Jesus did in our own lives!

“Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father. And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it” (John 14:12–14).
