The point of the gospels is to learn about Jesus Christ and his word of God that he delivers to people in hopes they will learn to become faithful, decent followers of God. Specifically, “Luke’s narrative of the story of Jesus can be summarized as the human life and message of the Son of God. In view of the disciples’ association with Jesus, it can also be seen as the human life and message of those who share in his divine sonship” (LaVerdiere 62). Luke’s Gospel was conceived in a time after…

Jesus included many messages throughout his ministry about healing the sick. He often connected miracles of healing to forgiveness of sins or other lessons to teach the people around him. In this, he healed many people, such as those with blindness, leprosy, and deformations. Many looked down upon this, believing that Jesus was sinning by healing on the Sabbath or that he should not perform these miracles. However, these healings taught many lessons to those who witnessed them and those who read…

Christian back then and even now. The way Christians live and the way they represent God has not changed and it shows that if you live the way God wants you to and bless people in your ways you will be blessed and greater rewards are waiting for you. Matthew 5:1-12 states, When Jesus saw the crowds, he went up on a hill and sat down. His followers came to him, and he began to teach them, saying: “They are blessed who realize their spiritual poverty, for the kingdom of heaven belongs to them.…

(euangelion) that arrived at Spanish through evangelium and the Latin word which literally means good news. This good news concerns the life and preaching of Jesus Christ, the only begotten Son of God made man. There are four gospels: Gospel of Matthew (Mt), Mark (Mk), Lucas (Lc), John (John). Part of Sacred Scripture and in particular the New Testament. Therefore they belong to the canon of Scripture, which is "the complete list of the sacred writings, that the Apostolic Tradition has allowed…

The Gospel of Mark represents Jesus in a prophetic way. In the Gospels of Mark, Jesus is known as the Son of Man, and he is seen helping and healing many of his followers. In one example Jesus is seen healing a woman with a hemorrhage. The woman visited many doctors, and not one of them was able to help her. Her illness was getting worse and worse each day. Word spread around about Jesus, and she wished for his help. Once she saw him she went up to him and placed her hands on his back.…

Peter was mentioned over and over again in the life with Jesus and the beginning of the New Testament Church. It all started with Peter working as a fisherman and ran the business with the men and women of the Family. His life was not talked about in detail about before Jesus met him, but I would have to say that he was probably a normal hardworking man. Then Jesus called the leader out of him and his life changed forever for the better. Jesus was building His disciples and Peter was the more…

Within the bible, there are numerous narratives about the life of Jesus and his teachings that he spread to his followers. These narratives help Christians understand what they should do in order to become good followers in the eyes of God. In the Gospels of Luke chapter 10, Luke writes three recollections of Jesus. Even though all three narratives are different and have their own meanings, they all reinforce the same idea of what it means to be a true follower of God. To start off, the first…

Everything I have read about the synoptic gospels of Matthew, Mark, and Luke reminds me of college writing now and plagiarism; with this said, I could define the synoptic problem as plagiarism. You see the synoptic problem is very close relationships of the writings in these books, by these three. They are very similar in so many ways Mark writing first, then Matthew and Luke following with the same stories just changed up a bit. Kind of like a close plagiarism with quotes and some paraphrasing…

beginning with God" (John 1:1-2). John begins his Gospel with Jesus in a way none of the synoptic gospels had. His version of Jesus began at the same time as God, compared to the others’ beginning after God. It varies from the other three gospels of Matthew, Mark and Luke (also known as the synoptic gospels), by focusing more on spiritual themes rather than historical events. One of John’s disciples was the author of this Gospel, one of the twelve disciples that followed Jesus Christ during…
