Zone1 The Life and Mission of Jesus Christ

[onefour1]

Jesus Christ is the greatest being to be born on this earth—our perfect example. He is Lord of lords, the Creator, our Savior, and He came to Earth so that we could live with God again.

Born in humble circumstances​

Jesus was born to the virgin Mary in a small village in a remote corner of the world. That humble birth fulfilled the hopes and dreams of all of us. He was the Son of God with infinite knowledge and power, yet He was also mortal and susceptible to hunger and pain. Jesus Christ fully experienced the challenges and sorrows of this life. He knows each of us and understands us perfectly.

Early preparation​

Even as a young man, Jesus was teaching the word of God. At 12 years old, He taught in the temple, and all that heard Him were astonished at His understanding. When Jesus began His ministry, He fasted in the wilderness for 40 days. He was tempted by the devil and overcame that temptation. He was also baptized in the Jordan River by John the Baptist. Although Jesus was without sin, He was still baptized by immersion in order to teach us obedience to God. After Jesus’s baptism, God declared, “This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased” (Matthew 3:17).

Ministry​

Jesus healed the sick, gave sight to the blind, and even brought the dead back to life. More importantly, He made these miracles possible. Although His works were considered blasphemous behavior by the Jewish priests, Jesus continually reminded people that His works were aligned with God’s will so “that the Father may be glorified in the Son” (John 14:13).
Jesus is also the perfect example of love. During His life on the earth, He cared for the poor, He healed the sick (see Luke 17:12–19), and He never turned away little children (see Matthew 19:13–14). His love is endless and available to all of us.
Jesus taught that we must forgive. Even as He died on the cross, Jesus forgave the people who killed Him.

Jesus performed miracles​

Jesus healed the sick, walked on water, raised the dead, calmed the sea, and turned water into wine. Those miracles fulfilled ancient prophecies and demonstrated His divinity. They also show Jesus Christ’s infinite compassion for us. With all this assurance, we can know that He is our God and that He has power over all His creations. We can have faith in Him to perform miracles in our lives today.

Divine teachings​

Jesus was the greatest teacher who ever lived. He often used parables, or stories, to teach important lessons that we can still learn from today.

His teachings were far ahead of His time. He taught us to love our enemies. He taught us to forgive. He taught us to see people beyond their race, age, gender, or nationality. He taught us to love God and to love our neighbor. But more importantly, He showed love in everything He did.

Jesus died for us​

Throughout His life, many were angry with Jesus because He condemned hypocrisy. He taught unfamiliar truths and showed compassion to sinners. He demonstrated incredible power, and some civic and church leaders felt threatened by His influence.
The night before He was killed, Jesus retreated to the Garden of Gethsemane to pray. There, He felt the weight of every sin and pain known to humankind and suffered for every person who has ever lived. Afterward, Jesus was betrayed, arrested, mocked, beaten, and crucified on the cross—all of which He allowed in order to fulfill God’s will. “I lay down my life,” the Lord said, “that I might take it again. No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again” (John 10:17–18). Even as Jesus was being killed by His own people, He cried out that God might have mercy on them.

Jesus rose from the grave​

Three days after His death, Jesus rose from the the tomb and appeared to His friends and followers. Because Jesus lives again, we too will be resurrected one day. He broke the bands of death when he arose from the tomb that first Easter morning. Because of His sacrifice and resurrection, we can meet our daily challenges with faith in our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. We can know that there are no lost causes, there are no endings, and none of us are beyond His perfect love and infinite power to save.

Why Luke Referred to Bethlehem as 'City of David'

When did Bethlehem become the "city of David"? That title had always been given to Jerusalem. Forty times in the Old Testament, Jerusalem is referred to

[John Edgar Slow Horses]

You Christians never think your genesis and biblical stories through: they don't make sense.

Now the love of Christ for everyone unconditionally does resonate with me.

Jesus Christ wasnt born- He always was.

Interesting evaluation of a complete failure, however OK his hopes and vision might have been .

Although understandably Cult Christians cannot begin to see it , the decline of this religion is long overdue and this is what we are seeing right now .

ASAP , please . Along with absurd Judaism and the equally absurd Islam Cult .

But for now , losing the simple Essene Monk who was briefly elevated to Celebrity is a great start .

99% of all religion claiming to be christian is false religion. Jesus started a single religion-unified in all of Gods 1 truth-no division( 1Cor 1:10)= 1 single religion is lead by Jesus. Yet there are hundreds, but they do not obey Jesus, They do not teach all that he actually taught, few on earth knows what Jesus actually taught. One cannot obey if they do not know what he taught.

Jesus is our Lord and Savior the Christ; the Son. of the living God

There is no other way to heaven except by way of Jesus and the blood penalty he paid for our sins. Other than that people go to hell, except for kids.

 

[BreezeWood]

jesus taught liberation theology, self determination -

the 1st century events is the repudiation of the prevailing false religion that had him and may others put to death for remaining true to the original religion of antiquity, the furthest from believing in a messiah to save someone than is possible or ever hoped for.

For the unbelieving husband is sanctified by the (believing) wife, and the unbelieving wife is sanctified by the (believing) husband: else were your children unclean; but now are they holy.

Again .
Cultists trying to convince themslves that their soppy beliefs grow stronger by repeating them ad infiitum to each other .

The Romans /James /Paul /Peter et al realised the Jewish story was so weak ( the Chosen Ones ) that they went for a variation of the same basic idea -- a chosen individual by proxy . Rather than a whole race by proxy which is patently garbage .
