Jesus and history

Application As demonstrated above, the divine nature of Jesus has been part of the equation in Christological studies since Christians began to witness. One can even say the understanding of his divine nature began while Jesus walked the earth. The first Ecumenical council included Jesus in the trinity as the Son God. The other councils in many occasions came to be as part of numerous attempts to reconcile his divine nature with his human nature, and to combat against any who questioned His…

I will be talking about what I believe to be true from what Jesus tells us in the Bible, about being the Son of God and how He was here to die on the cross for our sins, showing everyone who He was and who ever believe in Him is save, or healed if they were sick. In this paper, I will be talking about the trustworthiness and historicity of the Gospels. The historical reliability of the Gospel accounts of Jesus’ miracles, and did Jesus claim to be God. Did his disciples believe he was God? The…

to discover because it emerges at numerous places in the scriptures themselves. The center of the message is Jesus Christ and what God has done, is doing, and will do for mankind through Jesus Christ. Paul’s sermon in Acts 13:16-43 is a good summary of the basic…

Timothy Weber has likened the early dispensationalists to spectators in a stadium, watching history unfold on the playing field below. There were very few among them who believed they could or should play any role in the fulfilment of prophecy except to be watchful and personally prepared.

They consequently shunned earthly…

valuable to study the historical Jesus for my own life and my ministry. This would help me reflect and act like Christ.

Jesus is my Bridegroom. It is regrettable to me that the Jesus the Nazareth that…

The portrayal of Jesus as the Son of God, the Savior, and the Lord and what it means to believe in his identity makes this gospel relevant to the church. In the first verse of chapter one he writes, “When the world began, the word existed already. The word was with God. And the word was God himself. The word was present with God at the beginning of all things. God made everything by means of the Word. The Word caused all things to exist. He gave life to everything that God created His life gave…

The history of Christianity is a very broad topic that you could go into great detail about, whether debating or stating facts. But I would like to give you the information I received from an article I read. Based off the article, Christianity came to the forefront approximately 2000 years ago in the city of Judea, or present day Israel. Christianity started with Jesus Christ and later down the line came his noble disciples. Approximately 2000 years ago in Judea, there was a wide culture of…

measure up to God’s demand of ordinary righteousness.” Then, Paul introduces the gospel of Jesus Christ and the sufficiency of faith in the atoning work of Christ on the cross. Furthermore, Paul explains in Galatians and Ephesians that one cannot attain salvation by any works of their own, whether by fulfilling the Law of the Old Testament or by meriting any favor from God through good works.

Testimonies of Faith. They are faith sources rather than historical sources. Good news which came out from the Jesus’ follower. The mission of Gospels is written to proclaim a messages of the faith in Jesus. The information that contains about Jesus’ works, life, massage, death and resurrection. NOT BIOGRAPHIES! Chronologically organized Memoirs of the apostles “The good news about Jesus Christ and the salvation that He brings to mankind, a correct translation of the Greek word εὐαγγέλιον…
