Love Jesus Because.” He is a very enthusiastic preacher and he starts out by saying, “I love Jesus because I can pray in his name.” We need to be grateful to Christ and love him because we can pray in his name. When he prays in Jesus’ name, he rolls upon the mind of God, all the memories he has. He has forgiveness of sins through Jesus Christ. God has casts our sins into the depth of the sea. Not on the surface where men can look at them, but down deep in the depths of the sea. He loves Jesus…

A person I think that deserves a statue in his/her honor is, Jesus Christ. I think that Jesus should have a statue in his honor because he died for us, saved us, and watches over us every day. One reason that I think there should be a statue for him is that he died for us. He went through so much pain to save us from being sinners, although we still are. He carried the cross and suffered so much. He could have just went on with his life and we wouldn’t have even been here. He never sinned and is…

the Gospels, we see four different accounts of the same story all written to different people groups. In Matthew, we see Jesus portrayed as the rightful heir to the Messianic throne. Matthew was a Jew, who wrote his account to other Jews. Matthew wrote his account to show that Jesus was the fulfilment of the Messianic prophecy. Matthew was written in A.D. 80-100.

throughout Living from the Heart Jesus Gave You that I can relate to. The ones that spoke to me the most are belonging and joy because I know how much of an impact these two themes have played a part in my life. While the two themes are very much connected to one another- belonging brings joy- they have very distinct qualities all their own that should be relayed. “Life is about receiving and giving- reaching one’s destiny and helping others reach theirs.

Why did Jesus perform miracles? The New Testament contains many inspiring examples of miracles performed by Jesus during his human life on earth. While these deeds provide insight into the historical era of Christ's life, they also fill the important role of inviting, and then strengthening, belief. Jesus Performed miracles to, add credibility to his teaching, to signify the beginning and ending of his public teaching, and to show us that all are welcome in his kingdom.…

John the Baptist sets out to prove the supremacy of Jesus to his followers, and to show how vastly superior Christ is to himself. John bases these claims on a few key points, so let’s break them down. First, John tells us that Jesus is superior because he has come “from above,” “from heaven.” The distinction here is that Jesus is “from above”; John is “from the earth.” Second, Jesus is superior to John because of what he speaks about. Since Jesus is “from above,” He speaks of the “heavenly…
