Gospel of the Hebrews

epistle as “truly the most important piece in the New Testament,” “the purest Gospel,” and he highly esteemed the letter insomuch that he wrote, “It is well worth a Christian’s while not only to memorize if word for word but also to occupy himself with it daily, as though it were the daily bread of the soul.” Foundational, vital, Christian subthemes are within Romans that are under the overarching theme of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. One of these themes is one that Protestants, including Martin…

written after the other three synoptic gospels, yet stands out to be different, the facts are interpreted, and it is basically written to the world, even though it is addressed to Greeks, Jews, and Romans. Jesus’ beloved John, wrote the book of John in A.D. 85 around Ephesus. “By this time, John wrote his gospel the church had matured in its transition from a Jewish exclusivism (cf. Acts10) to a universal outreach.” (Jensen 1981, p. 178). By the time the gospel of John was written it was…

For this question, I have picked the gospel of John. The book of John was written by Apostle John meaning “Yahweh has been gracious.” John was the youngest of Jesus’ apostles. The gospel of John was written around 80- 90A.D in the city of Ephesus. Ephesus by that time was the center of commerce and culture. The majority of John’s audience was no longer Jewish converts but rather people who lived in a world dominated by culture and thoughts of Greece and Rome. Apostle John sought to appeal to…

The Nicene Creed and truth about the Trinity Christ’s apostles lived in the era when the teaching of the Gospel was very accuracy, however as the last apostles passed on, the teaching became much distorted from the truth. This misrepresentation of the Gospel or the Biblical truth spread though out and became indeed popular. The Pagans step in to increase membership in the churches with ritual and custom that used the study of the Bible as the foundation for the numerous creeds and sects.…

is filled with prophetic references to the cross. This Psalm is cited on multiple occasions throughout the gospel accounts of Jesus’ crucifixion. In fact it is one of the most quoted Psalm in the New Testament, and it depicts the crucifixion of Christ in undeniable accuracy. This correlation of specific detail is one of the greatest proofs of the divine inspiration of Scripture. The gospel writers remind us of this point as they on multiple occasions point out that the crucifixion of Christ was…

Contributions to the Spread of Christianity During the Western Civilization Rational There were many different contributions that spread the religion of Christianity during the Western Civilization. First, the accomplishments of the Hebrews, later recognized as the Jews, helped in spreading Christianity as a religion during the Western Civilization, which was also considered the earliest known civilization (36-38). These different contributions that are mentioned in the Power Point begin…

Jesus The New Testament integrates four gospels, each having been written during different time periods and by different minds. When different thought processes and personalities converge into one Bible, it is indisputable that there will be a degree of variation in the presentation of Jesus across the four gospels. The Gospel of Mark portrayed Jesus’ Messiahship through his suffering as a reparation for the sins of his followers. On the other hand, the Gospel of Matthew represented Jesus as the…

Testament was written in the first century. Some scholars date them toward the middle and others toward the end. Usually, the late dating of the gospels is based on knowledge and predictions around the destruction of the temple. That is since some do not believe in the message of the New Testament––they do not believe Jesus could predict future events––and so the gospels must have been written after AD 70 if they predict these events. This is unfortunate and ignores much of the evidence to the…

The book of Hebrews focuses on Christ’s superiority and exhorts Christians to be mature and stay strong in their faith. Although scholars have not come to an agreement as to who the author of Hebrews is, most do agree upon who the general audience is. The audience that this passage was directed towards was a “community” that had failed to mature in their faith and understanding of Christ. Hebrews 5:11-6:12 serves as one of several warning sections in the book where the author confronts his…

united in prayer and on the day of the Hebrew celebration called Pentecost, the fulfilled promised came forth when the Holy Spirit fell on them and gave them the power they would need to begin the great church and minister the Gospel of Jesus Christ. The impact and effect of the Holy Spirit on the lives of the disciples of Jesus was immediate and persuasive. The Holy Spirit gave them the ability to speak in foreign languages to spread and proclaim the gospel and sing praises to God so that all…
