What Did Jesus Do? (WDJD)

‘AWord From the Pastor’ By Clayton Adams

I am sure you remember the popular fad a few years ago WWJD (What Would Jesus Do?). It was popular to wear a rubber wristband with 'WWJD' printed on it. I never wore one nor did I join in the hoopla that went with this campaign.

I never did like the theme WWJD primarily because we can read the Bible, especially the red-letter sections and know exactly What Did Jesus Do (WDJD). We don't have to guess; we don't have to rely on someone else to interpret it for us we can know ourselves.

For instance, what did Jesus do to those who were hungry, thirsty, estranged, naked, sick or in prison?

He fed, watered, invited, clothed, healed and visited these people. (Matthew 25:31-46) What did Jesus do when people falsely accused Him? He was silent.

(Matthew 27:14) What did Jesus command to those who followed Him or desire to follow Him?

Read the Beatitudes in Matthew chapters 5, 6 and 7.

What did Jesus tell his disciples and followers to not allow in their lives? To not be mislead or deceived; to not be afraid or frightened and to “endure” until the end.

(Matthew 24:4,6 and 13) What did Jesus come to earth from heaven to do?

For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish, but have eternal life. For God did not send the Son into the world to judge the world, but that the world might be saved through Him. (John 3:16-17) What Would Jesus Do?

This question is open to interpretation and the answers usually will not be good or beneficial. This allows one to “interpret” and insert the one's own opinions and feelings.

What Did Jesus Do? The answer to this question is found in God's Word and if one wants to get real specific one can check out the words in red because they tell “What Did Jesus Do.”
