Jesus

In the Bible, I have read that Jesus compared living a life to building a house. Other religions emphasize the importance of a solid foundation too. Each individual must choose which guiding principles to build their life upon. I have chosen to build my life on the foundation of Jesus’s life and work. Builders and theologians agree that without a strong foundation, the house will fall. My father tells me that when his family moved back to Texas, my grandfather built their house from the ground…

The reason Jesus in the movie Jesus Christ the SuperStar is be he was the most important character in the movie and the bible. I also chose Jesus because was the most entreating character. He protracted Jesus in a different way than I thought Jesus was in the bible. Also, Jesus in the bible was calm and he know that he was going to die and he didn't think about it twice, Jesus in the movie was calm but he had a edge about his personally, and he double thought him dying on the cross. The role…

questions that arise when discussing Jesus, more importantly, the historical Jesus VS the human Jesus. Some of the many questions that can be asked are, “What does history tell us about the human Jesus?” and “How do we understand Jesus’s humanity?”. By looking deep into these “simple” questions, one can discover many different answers to what become rather complex and un-simple questions. The Jesus of history leads to what can be said about the human Jesus. Meeting Jesus AGAIN for the First…

together traveling with Jesus and they have had some amazing experiences. They watched Jesus calm the sea. They saw him drive out demons and heal sick people. They even helped Jesus feed 5,000 people with five loaves of bread and two fish. I am thinking the disciples must have believed they were going to be the next upcoming group of leaders! But then, as seen in our Gospel reading today, everything seemed to have changed. There seems to be a change of focus from who Jesus is and his ministry to…

I grew up in a Christian household so I heard about Jesus but never knew him. I never wanted to get a chance to know him. I would go to church and hear about how great Jesus is and the many things that he can do. When I came here to Fayetteville Christian School in fourth grade, I had no other choice but to learn about Jesus. I didn’t know anything about him and the feeling of sitting in a class while the teacher is talking about someone I didn’t know but heard of was coarse. There I started to…

Jesus’ identity and purpose Jesus is present in any place and moment in the life of every human being. The Bible, which is the best-selling and greater wisdom book, shows the four Gospels of the four first disciples of Jesus in life. John, who was one of the disciples, showed on his gospel the Jesus Christ's teachings. on the verses of John's gospel, (13: 5-11 & 34-35, NIV) show how Jesus, by washing their disciples' feet which was the most degraded work at that time, taught them how they should…

fundamental ideas to the Christian belief system is that Jesus Christ embodies the One, True God in physical form. Jesus Christ is the son of God, but also God himself. While this is a thought that transcends the mind of man, it is part of the character of God as a triune being, God the Father, God the Son, and God the Spirit. If one were to believe that Jesus Christ were not God himself, the New Testament Christian faith would diminish as Jesus would be no more than a great prophet and the…

Jesus Christ The name “Christian” means “Christ follower,” giving Jesus a crucial, foundational role in the Christian faith. He is the second member of the Holy Trinity, also known as the Son of God the Father. Described as a mediator between God and humans, Jesus came to Earth as a human and was born and grew into adulthood, leading a sinless life and teaching others the way to heaven. The existence of Jesus Christ is a little disputed fact across different religions and people groups. Even…

Jesus’ Loyalty to God All Christians promote and accept the value of obeying God, so Jesus, as his son, is thus held at an even higher standard. Jesus demonstrates his loyalty to God in several ways. Through later verses in his Gospel, the definition of “Son of God” outlines how “Luke understands Jesus’ identity as Son of God in terms of messianic kingship, complete obedience to God’s will, and divine agency.” Luke believed it was necessary to show Jesus fully obeying God. Some of Jesus’…

The Muslim Jesus is a British documentary from the year 2007. Historically, Christians and Muslims have clashed due to their beliefs, and what is so crucial about this documentary is that it challenges the fact that Christians and Muslims are more alike than different; in this case, due to both Christians and Muslims viewing Jesus as an important prophet. The film revolves around how Islam regards Jesus and compares the Islamic view with the Christian view. The film also incorporates Ninian…
