Historicity of Jesus

listening to our Lord, Jesus Christ, is how I will accomplish this amazing gift of grace and mercy that I have been given as an adopted daughter of the Lord. I have been called to do something amazing in my life, not sure how it will all play out, but returning to college to reach a higher level of education is the path He has for me. I’m trusting God to reveal blessings and show me what I can do for Him with this newly discovered knowledge. 8 years ago I rededicated my life to Jesus Christ. I…

the Christians fled Jerusalem and went to Judea and Samaria. Notice in verse 8:4 that these Christians who were scattered went and preached the Good News wherever they went. They were fleeing from being persecuted because they of their belief in Jesus and still they preached. I love the way God will take what men intend for evil and use it in mighty ways. Here these men were trying to stop this belief…

Today was a day as any other day, as I sat on the bench at the park and read my daily reading of the Bible. Today I was approached by a lady she actually stopped and ask me what it was in the world that made me sit day after day on my bench and read the Bible? She also wanted to know why I considered it to be an authoritative instrument.

greater power then him will be coming soon. Jesus then comes to the river to be baptized by John, and was recognized by the Holy Spirit of God as His son. After being baptized and being recognized, Jesus was sent into the wilderness for 40 days to be tested and tempted by satan. Jesus returns and shares the good news to the townspeople. He then traveled to Galilee where he started picking men whom he wanted as disciples. With the chosen 12, Jesus started traveling from town to town sharing…

Throughout history people have turned to sacred beliefs for sense of well-being, gathering with others whom share their interests, or simply for a guided way of life to live by. Some of the world cultures have rituals, sacred grounds, even objects of common use to represent the practices in which they hold so dearly, for the majority of cultures, religion, typically with a worshiped deity, if not more than one, and a literary central religious text to live by, is how the rest of the religious…

known as counterfactual. So what Jesus did – repeatedly and smoothly – was truly phenomenal human. He established, beyond sensible doubt, that he is more than just a man. However staggering the implications, Jesus’ words and actions graphically prove that he is God. As we sat in the cafeteria of the Bedfordshire Times, my friend Steve wanted proof of God’s existence: “If you’re really there, God, why on earth don’t you prove it?” It seems to me that when Jesus walked the planet, God did, on…

105). Scripture offers much in the teaching of the triune; however, as Highfield states, “the traditional doctrine has a solid scriptural warrant” (2008, p. 108). As one begins to understand the Scripture ties between Old Testament theology and Jesus’ participation in creation and divine ability to forgive, it will influence how they view the…

revelation of the Spirit of God, the eternal oneness of Jesus the "Son", Jesus the "Father", and Jesus the "Holy Spirit". That He was and is before all things and that by him "all things consist".

options present themselves to “solve” these issues. The followers of Jesus Christ offer a distinct viewpoint on these problems. This viewpoint has provoked many authors to write poems or short stories inside this field of thought. William Blake and Mark Jarman, two Christian authors, wrote two different stories using their set of ideas developed from Christianity’s beliefs. Christians are encouraged to love in the same way that Jesus Christ loved everybody (Holman Christian Standard Bible, Eph.…
