By Christology standards and ideals, Jesus is more of an idea, a way of life than an actual human being. To explain further, all I simply mean is that the reason Christianity is followed is not because of the mythology behind it. It is because of the message it spreads, the positivity it spreads around the globe. It’s a way of life, therefore many people can interpret this way of life through their own perspective. Thier own experiences, which if you have faith, you can say that these…

Christianity and Judaism was a big deal in Roman and Greek culture during the period of the New Testament. Religion seemed to be the center of many conflicts and separation between civilizations during this time. The birth of Jesus brought in a lot of controversies within Hellenistic cultures and therefore we see many influences of the new covenant in several of the sculptures and art work created by Greco-Roman artists.
