Whiter than Snow on Easter Sunday

What made Jesus different than the Old Testament prophets?

John chapter 2 tells of Jesus turning plain water into wine.
II Kings chapter 4 tells of Elisha turning a poisonous pot of stew into an edible pot of stew.

Matthew chapter 14 tells of Jesus supernaturally feeding 5000 people.
I Kings chapter 17 tells of Elijah supernaturally providing food for a widow and her son for "many days".

Matthew chapter 9 tells of Jesus raising Jairus' dead daughter to life.
I Kings chapter 17 also tells of Elijah raising the widow's son from the dead.

Matthew chapter 9 also tells of Jesus healing two blind men and a mute.
II Kings chapter 5 tells of Elisha healing Naaman of leprosy.

We woke up this Easter morning to three fresh inches of powdery snow. This area of the country has been trying to grunt the birth of spring for a couple weeks now. Our 30" of snow on the ground has been burned back to about 20", and the snow that was left was hard, crusty and dirty brown. What an object lesson to awaken on Easter morning to a fresh white covering of snow; appearing to once again purify all that is around it. King David said in Psalm 51:7 "Wash me, and I shall be whiter than snow".

So, what made Jesus different than the Old Testament prophets?

Matthew 9:2, Jesus told the man with palsy "Son, be of good cheer: thy sins be forgiven thee". Only the God of heaven would dare make a statement so bold. And only God could make good on this word spoken to the man with palsy. This surely was the God of heaven incarnate. Only He can forgive us our sins. Only He can wash us and make us whiter than snow!
I trust that your Easter was a blessed one, and that your thoughts of His sacrifice will continue throughout the year. God bless!
