Both!
Jesus the Appointed One
"He is the image of the invisible God. The first born over all creation. For by him all things were created: things in Heaven and earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: He is before all things, and in him all things hold together." (Colossians 1:15-17) "For there is one God and one mediator between God and men: the man Christ Jesus." (1 Tim 2:5). "Which in his times he shall show, who is the blessed and only Potentate, the King of kings, and Lord of lords (1 Timothy 6:15).
Jesus the Giver of Life
God sent His Son to pay man's sin debt once and for all. No one but Jesus could redeemed mankind. Jesus' Crucifixion, Resurrection, Ascension, and Exaltation made peace between God and man, creating an everlasting covenant. "Now the God of peace, that brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, that great shepherd of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant, Make you perfect in every good work to do his will, working in you that which is well pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom be glory for ever and ever. Amen (Hebrews 13:20-21).
God Loves You
"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life (John 3:16). "For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord (Romans 6:23).
