In Section 10 the Bible leads us to Jesus. In Section 14 Jesus is the opposite of Balaam. In Section 32 MacDonald indicates that even when Jesus is farthest from God, his faith is most strong. Jesus still cries out in faith to His father even though He has no feelings on which to base his faith. In Section 53 MacDonald indicates that although Jesus was completely good, He did not even recognize His own goodness. In section 209 it is mentioned that Jesus died to save people from their sins, not keep them from punishment. In Section 322 it is mentioned that Jesus is the son of God. In Section 120 MacDonald encourages his readers to live as Jesus lived while He was on earth. Jesus is described as being the live truth in Section 196. In Section 322 Jesus is described as the son of God.
