What does the Bible say about the preciousness of Jesus?
Answered in 3 sources
The Bible teaches that Jesus is precious to believers, as He embodies the fullness of God and provides redemption and intercession.
According to 1 Peter 2:7, Jesus is precious to those who believe. This preciousness is derived not only from His divine nature but also from His commitment to humanity. The Scriptures reveal that in Him dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily, which is a profound mystery. Even though He upholds all things by His power, He chose to humble Himself, becoming obedient to death. To the regenerate soul, Jesus is the ultimate source of treasure, honor, and adoration, recognized as the chief delight.
