Jesus and history

Jesus or the calculator, which has more influence that is the question. In my life the calculator holds more influence. For the reason I do not believe in Jesus or the teachings of Christianity. The calculator has made calculating mathematical equations much simpler and faster over its progression through history. The only down side is that people don’t have to learn simple calculations. On the positive side humans can do very complicated calculations. It helps the human race evolve…

upon the government and its people. History shows the trends in Tonga ever since the day Christianity was accepted by King Tupou 1; Tonga had become a different country- religious and a better country! Its acceptance and enforcement in the country had brought its people true conversion, beginning to have faith in a living God and accumulating light and truth. People became Christians, and that alone made them one and united in faith. Having faith in the Lord, Jesus Christ is the very foundation…

does not exist, it is the righteous savior Jesus Christ that makes Christians worthy of God’s grace. This passage takes place in Galilee, most likely at a port where a Jewish tax collector named Levi is going to be called by Jesus to be a disciple. Luke changes gears when writing this passage, and begins to speak of the Jesus seeks out and cares for sinners. This shows that Jesus really is the sacrificial lamb, and he has authority to heal any problem. History When exegeting the Calling of Levi…

Homiletical Idea and Sermon The definition of homiletics in reference to ministry is clearly defined as the “art of preparing sermons and preaching,” the gospel of Jesus Christ. The art of a sermon is showing or practicing a God given talent or gift before believers of God’s word. In the natural, homiletical idea can be viewed as method of brainstorming to convey God’s word to His people. Unfortunately, God is all spiritual, therefore, any method of preaching or teaching should be approached…

Testament details the life of Jesus Christ. Looking into the Synopsis of the Gospel each one of them gives its own account of the life of Jesus. The Greek English version of the Synopsis of the Four Gospels can really help a pastor deliver the word. Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John make up the Synopsis Gospels. Each one of them gives its own description of the life of Jesus Christ from the beginning until the end (Black 53). The interesting thing is that each Synopsis speak of Jesus in different…

sense of humor in difficult times. Although these three people possessed equally important traits, however, others throughout history who have also expressed their fine characteristics and inspired others. Three different people with three different traits have spoken out to me. Those people are Jesus, Walt Disney, and Princess Diana. To begin with, I chose Jesus because he was perfect in all things. Although he demonstrated several admiral traits throughout his lifetime, his…

Jesus Seminar Paragraph Marcus J. Borg attests in his book Meeting Jesus Again for the First Time that Jesus comprises two distinct personas; “the pre-Easter Jesus” and “the post-Easter Jesus” (20). He further implies that it is necessary for us to be able to differentiate between these identities, and cites and commends “the work of a group of scholars known as the Jesus Seminar” in dutifully analyzing and clarifying these necessary distinctions (21). Borg states that the Seminar “[has] met…

As God’s written revelation of Himself—His nature, character, redemptive history, and desire for humanity—the Bible is authoritative over the world and the manner of life mankind fosters in it. The words of Scripture have provided ample revelation for men and women to receive salvation…

development of churches throughout Rome as well as the Holy Land (St. Helen). St. Helena gave orders to the Emperor Constantine to build a church in Jerusalem in honor of the Resurrection of Christ. She also discovered the True Cross on which Jesus was crucified in Jerusalem. Due to her extensive service to the church and her efforts in discovering the True Cross, St. Helena is known as the “Equal of the Apostles.” During the Reform Movement women took advantage of the new ideas that were…

is if Islam, Judaism, and Christianity worship the same God. Some people will say of course they do, while others will totally disagree. The best way to come to some sort of a conclusion is to compare and contrast the religions and examine their history. Abraham’s Beginnings of Religions All hail Abraham! When looking at the fact that all three religions trace back to Abraham the answer to the question of the religions worshiping the same God is yes. In the book of Genesis 17:5 God says to Abram…
