Jesus -The Christ
The Word was with God and the Word was God
The Son of God- put to shame and rejected
The Way- the road not traveled
The Truth- denied and not proclaimed
The Life- unwanted and killed
The True Vine- not watered nor cultivated
The Living Bread: un-broken, unshared
The Living water: un-drunk, unshared.
The Word became flesh and dwelt among us
The Son of Man- the image and likeness of the unseen God
The King- born in a manger; crowned with thorny grass
enthroned on a tree; laid in a borrowed tomb
The High Priest- not of the holy of hollies, but of the wilderness
The Prophet- from unknown and of no important town
of an ordinary family
The Bridegroom who shared his divinity with our humanity
The Master- the suffering servant
The Rabbi- the man of action
The Shepherd- the sacrifice lamb
The Sower- Sowed the seed of faith, hope, and love
The Good Samaritan- the man for others
The Father- who forgave the son(s)
The Owner of the Vineyard-
the man of compassion and generosity
The Employer- a just and righteous man
The Savior- who died on the cross
The One and only begotten Son of God
The Messiah- the anointed
The New Adam- both human and divine
The new Moses- the fulfillment of the law
The Son- the Alpha and the Omega
