Even though this is one of the cheesiest videos you will ever see it begs to ask the question, Is Jesus our chum lifelong buddy? Please use at least one verse to support your answer.


YouTube - Jesus is a Friend of Mine

p.s. sorry that I got this song stuck in your head.

James 2

23And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham believed God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the Friend of God.


Hebrews 11
40God had planned something better for us so that only together with us would they be made perfect.

LOL...thanks. It will be stuck in My head...Jesus is a brother to all. He is a teacher to all. And yes, if you follow God's will, He can be a friend. I'm sure the Apostles were His friend, but they knew He was the Son of God, too.

It serves us better to know Him as King, imo.

Quote:
And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and He that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness He doth judge and make war.
His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on His head were many crowns; and He had a name written, that no man knew, but He himself.
And He was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and His name is called The Word of God. (Rev 19:11-13)


We serve a God whose name our ancestors could not even mention - where is our reverence today?

My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends. You are my friends if you do what I command. I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master's business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you. John 15:12-15
There are many more. If you don't consider Christ your friend, you might not know Him.

John 15:15You are my friends when you do the things I command you. I'm no longer calling you servants because servants don't understand what their master is thinking and planning. No, I've named you friends because I've let you in on everything I've heard from the Father.

I am a friend to Jesus because He first called us friend

Sure John 15:15 says it all that Jesus said to thoughs who follow him and obey his commands........When I came to Jesus at conversion..... I heard a spirit say ``you are a good friend to me`` and this spirit said that to me many times.....Later Holy Spirit said it is antichrist, and through prayer and the Lord cleaning here, the spirit stopped saying it...... Today with regular cleaning of Christ for a walk with Jesus..... Demons that are dumb enought to come around here will say`` I don`t like you now`` and the prayer start every time to remove that curse out of my walk with Jesus. .... Stay clean.....
