life of Jesus differently. In the book of Matthew, Jesus is portrayed as a man who is partly divine, often emphasizing his humanity. In John, Jesus is portrayed as a divine being who is partly human, often emphasizing his divinity. This is shown by the differing ways that Jesus reacts to his imminent doom throughout the Passion story. In this essay I will demonstrate how Jesus’ attitude towards his sacrifice displays whether the reader sees him as more human or more divine. In Matthew, Jesus is…

The King Jesus Gospel gets right to the point, we live in a salvation culture world. We need the Gospel culture to return. The true Gospel is Jesus, His story, which is every story. The story of the Bible and Scripture does not exist without Jesus. The story of Israel is completed in Jesus. In the beginning was God, He made a temple, we call it Earth.

Jesus’ Secret Hidden is defined as: to conceal from knowledge or exposure; to keep secret. We see Jesus’ ability to keep secrets and hidden messages in the Gospel According to Mark. The Gospel of Mark is the first of the synoptic gospels, because it includes many of the same stories as Matthew and Luke, but it is the original. Mark was written in 70 AD, when the Jewish temple was burned down. It is speculated the author of the Gospel was John Mark, a gentile Christian, who was a follower of…

different ways. First, Jesus could be using it figuratively to tell Peter to “resume [his] proper role as a disciple” (Hare 194). Although Jesus just gave Peter authority in verse eighteen, Peter is still a disciple. He has much to learn still and should not try to instruct Jesus (Hare 194). By getting behind Jesus, Peter returns to a position of obedience and submission to the master (Stoutenburg 175). Second, He may be simply telling Peter to get out of His way (174). When Jesus says to Peter…

Jesus Christ is God. As most of modern society knows, this statement is fundamental to the teachings of Christianity. Christians believe that the many prophecies of the Old Testament, such as, “Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign: The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and will call him Immanuel,” are all fulfilled with the coming of Jesus, giving them evidence that Jesus is God (Isaiah 7:14). For Muslims though, putting Jesus on equal standing with God is considered…

Many today claim that Jesus was just a good teacher and that he himself never claimed to be divine. In Islam, it is believed that the Christians corrupted his teachings to say that he was the Son of God. However, through this apologetics course, it has been shown verifiably that the New Testament is reliable and uncorrupted. This means that what Jesus says in the New Testament is most likely the most accurate version of what he taught. According to the Biblical account, Jesus Christ claimed a…

Nowadays, people see Jesus as the man who revolutionized religion. However, Jesus had no intention of earning that title. To say that Jesus was a revolutionary is fundamentally wrong because he did not eradicate Judaism. The difference between a revolutionary and a reformer, though the two are not drastically dissimilar, is apparent. A revolutionary changes a system completely, and a reformer tries to adjust certain aspects of the system without abolishing it. Jesus’ actions prove him to be a…
