Resurrection

Christian converts had wanted the same things as the Romans. Unfortunately because Christianity was part of a number of mystery cults, images of the Nativity, Crucifixion, and Resurrection were not found in the third century Christian works of art (Funk & Wagnalls New World Encyclopedia). The theme of death and resurrection were not directly shown in the works of art but they were represented through many images that had been derived from the Old Testament.

Summary Over ten chapters, Scot McKnight, in The King Jesus Gospel: The Original Good News Revisited, articulated the Gospel of King Jesus. In the first chapter, McKnight provided three scenarios that supported his argument, namely, that there is a need to answer the question of what is the Gospel.

mercy existing together in Heaven. Dante states that justice and mercy are able to exist together in heaven through Christ’s life, death, and resurrection that is, “by grace alone, not that ‘twas merited”, not one account of anything else (Canto VII.41).

Along with the coexistence of justice and mercy, everyone in heaven gets along because “sins of…

There are many differences and similarities between the Christology of Jehovah Witnesses and the Orthodox Church. They are many things that are different but also similar between the two. For example, the beliefs on many topics like the eternal pre-existence of Jesus, the Virgin Birth, and many more topics.
