Unique Jasprit Bumrah, Unique Someone Else

Duke Jeyaraj

Vivek Krishnan writes these well-worded lines about Jasprit Bumrah, ‘In theory, Harshit Rana is Jasprit Bumrah’s replacement in India’s squad for the Champions Trophy. In reality, of course, there is nobody in India, or elsewhere, with the skill and control to fill in for Bumrah. From the uniqueness of his action and release point to the sheer mastery over his craft, the 31-year-old ace pacer is in a category of his own’ (The Hindu, Feb. 17, 2025).

This reminded me of the One who ultimately in a category of his own. This reminded me of the One who is uniquely unique! His name? Jesus! The Bible proclaims Jesus’ uniqueness, again and again. He is THE unique to the Father (John 14:6), that is he is THE way to God (he too is the only God-in-flesh). He is THE unique which saves humankind (Acts 4:12). He is THE unique mediator between God and Man (1 Tim. 2:5). He is THE unique person who is worthy to announce about end time judgment and be the judge in that end time judgment (Rev. 5:2-5, 6:16). Pluralism is a lie. Repent from it. Repent from sin and put your faith in the unique Jesus. Now.
