Lastly, the Bible make a comparison in 2 Samuel 6:12/Kings 8:9-11 and Luke 1:5,2:21-22. In 2 Samuel 6:12/Kings 8:9-11 it talks about how the ark returned to its sanctuary and ended up in Jerusalem, then God's glory was revealed in the new temple. In Luke 1:5,2:21-22 we see that Mary has returned to her home and ended up in Jerusalem, then she reveals God the Son in the new temple.

    All to often people dismiss the notion of Christianity because of preconceived views of God and the Trinity, often after attempting to apply worldly limitations and constraints to the identity of God, which is revealed through creation. The idea of the Trinity and the incarnation are often misconstrued and misunderstood because of their complexity, but this is not problem that must persist when accompanied by a clear explanation of these complex issues. The birth, life, death, and resurrection of Jesus altered and transformed the world by revealing the nature of God to humanity, providing a pattern for a Christian life, and by atoning for the sins of the world. Jesus and the Trinity According to…

    As it turns out, the portrayal and actions performed by Jesus in the Bible aren’t even remotely original. It seems it is simply a collection of bits and pieces from earlier greek mythology. Asklepios healed the sick, raised the dead, and was known as the savior and redeemer. Hercules was born of a higher power of a father and mortal mother and was known as the savior of the world. Prophets prophesied his birth and said he would be a king.…

    The genre of Deuteronomy 6:1-9 is law. Law was God’s gift to Israel, a covenant or promise that he made with them that if they lived Godly lives, they would be fruitful in the land he would give them. Often times when people today think of the word “law”, they associate it with being controlled, but in this context it wasn’t seen as a way to hold people back. While it was Israel’s constitution, the main purpose of law was to instruct the Israelites on how to thrive in the promised land and have a strong connection with God. Aside from those unique characteristics, there are six important principles to be aware of when interpreting law.…

    Portrait Of Jesus Essay

    “The announcement of the birth of this newborn king of the Jews greatly troubles not only King Herod but all Jerusalem” (Matthew 2:1-3), yet the Gentile Maji are overjoyed to find him and offer him their homage and gifts (Matthew 2:10-11). This explains how the ultimate rejection Jesus faces from his own people but gains acceptance from the Gentile nations. Jesus must escape the murderous plans of Herod and escape to Egypt where he will relive the Exodus experience in Israel. The angel of the lord appeared in Josephs dream and said, “Rise, take the child and his mother, flee to Egypt and stay there until I tell you (Matthew 2:13). Biblical traditions regarding Moses are applied to young Jesus.…

    In the Bible, there is a famous story that is often shared with children from different religious backgrounds, David and Goliath. This story is about a young man (David) who defeats a giant (Goliath) with a slingshot and a rock. The story describes a young man who exhibits strength, courage, and the ability to conquer regardless of your size. In the Late Antiquity there is a painting of Samuel Anointing David possibly created between 245-256 that was found in Dura-Europos, that is narrating the story of how this young man, David, became the chosen one to rule with strength, courage, and as a conqueror. The Samuel Anointing David is an excellent example of Late Antiquity Art.…

    John 6 1-14 Analysis

    • 1285 Words
    • 6 Pages

    John 6:1-14 serves as a “reminiscent of the miraculous feeding through Moses” during the wandering in the wilderness “following their exodus from Egypt and preceding their entrance into the promised land” (Exodus 16:4-36), events commemorated by the Passover feast (Heil, 53). In John 6:1-14, Jesus feeds a crowd of about five thousand (6:10) with the overabundance of bread and fish (6:5-13) when the Passover, the feast of the Jews, was near (6:4). All the events of John 6 are placed in a Passover context (6:4). The fact that a large crowd of people was following Jesus and seeing the signs He was performing on the sick (6:2) tells readers of the further signs: the theme of believing in Jesus as the sacrificial Passover lamb of God central to…

    Though Jesus is not revealed until the New Testament, Genesis forms the cornerstone for His arrival. We see the first hint that mankind will need a perfect sacrifice to take their place and save humanity when God sacrificed a lamb in place of Adam and Eve for their sin. Jesus can be seen in Abraham and his willingness to sacrifice his one and only son just to obey God. God prophesied the coming of Jesus who would come one day to restore the kingdom of God on earth forever, this is the second…

    In the Gospel of John, Jesus is shown performing miraculous deeds to prove to the Jewish people that he was the true son of God. John uses an eye-witness testimony to prove that Jesus was the true light sent down by God. The Gospel of John reveals that Jesus is the only son of God when Jesus prayed and said, “Now this is eternal life, that they should know you, the only true God, and the one whom you sent, Jesus Christ” (JN 17:3, NABRE). John showed Jesus trying to convince non-believers through the act of seven different signs, in which the first sign was when Jesus turned six stone water jars into wine at a wedding in Cana. John alludes back to the phrases in the Old Testament starting with ‘I am’; these phrases create a deeper spiritual…
