Many in the world have crafted a false image of Jesus in their own minds that views Him as merely a helpless baby in a manger (especially around Christmas) or as a mere teacher who taught some good ideas. Their view of Jesus is one who welcomes all religions. This worldly image of Jesus is one who is impotent to change sinful hearts. In fact, this worldly Jesus doesn't even want to change the hearts of sinners. He simply wants to be a cheerleader who approves of whatever path you choose in fulfilling your dreams. This is simply idolatry—creating a Jesus that suits us.
From our text today, we look not to some false image of Jesus, but to a faithful poetic description of Jesus Christ in all His glory. This is the Jesus who is to be received, worshipped, and loved by the Christian.
