Have you ever heard that Jesus is the answer to every question? I've heard it, and obviously one could ask a question that has nothing to do with Jesus, but in reality, Jesus is the answer to every question. He's everything we need; he's simply, the answer. Before I get too deep on myself let me explain.
Woman at the well needed water; she received living water straight from the Source. but he's not just water. Sometimes people are hungry and not thirsty. For those, He is the Bread of Life.
We all walk in a world full of darkness, but some indulge in that darkness and fall into the traps of the dark; Jesus is the Light of the World and can put those traps into the light so that they can be avoided.
People travel but don't get anywhere because they are lost and don't even know it, living a lie that they believe is truth, living a life that's leading them only to death. For those (and all of us) He is the way, the truth, and the life.
People are different. Some react to more of a dictator quality in a person better than a gentle command. Jesus is the Lion of the Tribe of Judah, He is the Lamb of God.
He doesn't have a split personality. He's not bread for someone who needs water. He's not a Lion for someone who needs a Lamb.
This isn't a "Jesus is only what you need and nothing else" gospel.
This is a "Jesus is exactly what you need" gospel.
