We see the lettering on jewelry, note pads etc., WWJD. Do we ever stop to think of what Jesus was like in  individual situations. How did he treat his close friends, his disciples, followers, strangers and those who opposed and hated him? Hebrews 13:8 tells us Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever. If you ask most people they would say that He is love. That is true but Jesus is so much more. First  and foremost, He died on the cross of Calvary for the sins of the world. He took 39 stripes for our healing. He gave us grace and mercy to live by. Jesus was kind and had compassion on mankind. He went about healing the sick and raising the dead. He healed the 9 lepers. Only one returned and  thanked him. He delivered the demon-possessed man who had a legion of demons. He raised Peter's mother-in-law from her sickbed. He sat with the publicans and sinners to tell them the gospel. He went to the home of Zacheus, a tax collector, and ate with him. He supplied the food for 5000 men and their families, and later, the 4000 plus their families. He had compassion on the woman with the issue of blood and she was healed after she had touched his garment. He was on his way to the home of Jairus whose daughter was very sick when this happened. The Law did not permit the touching of a woman who was bleeding. If you touched her, you had to bring an offering to the Priest to be declared clean.. He healed the centurion's servant. He told the truth whether it was accepted or not.  He was kindly affectionate to all people. He was hospitable and longsuffering. He stood for God's Law and not man's traditions. He never changes.
