First, I want to ask for my friends' salvation. Recently, I got in touch with my middle school friends whom we have lost contact for more than 10 years. I used to think if they don't follow Jesus then what is the point of being friends with them. I missed my opportunity to build a relationship with them. Nevertheless, God has opened another opportunity that we get in touch again. I do not want them to go to hell without knowing Jesus. I have many friends who are not Christians and a friend who is lesbian (Stevie). They live in a secular world and need the touch of Jesus.
Second, I want to ask revelation for my family. They need to have an intimate relationship with Jesus and encounter with the Holy Spirit. Also, salvation for my cousins and
Women played a most important role in early Christianity Women’s interaction with Jesus is very crucial roles within the life and teachings of Jesus. The resurrection of two people are restored to women, Nain to his unnamed mother (Luke 7:11-17), and Lazarus to Mary and Martha (John 11:1-44). Women attend to Jesus at the cross and are the first to see the resurrection of Jesus. More specifically Jesus infers there should be no hierarchy in Christian relationships (Matthew 20:25-26). Women also played a considerable role in the formation of the church. Many early churches were home churches and the environment was provided by the women. For example, Martha becomes a church leader by offering her house as a home church and by assisting in
The primary focus of each of the three quests for the historical Jesus, endeavors a series of approach to challenge the legitimacy of the Synoptic Gospels as an unreliable resource to study Jesus existence; even more, to question the NT portrayal of Jesus veracity, through an intellectual group of scholars applying other ancient book in their research into what is known as today “the Quest of the Historical Jesus.” Unlike the first century Christians, “It was widely assumed that the Jesus presented in the Bible was the man who lived and died—and rose—in Palestine in the first century.”1
I.N.R.I. can mean different things depending on the language it is written in and how you interpret it. Regardless of which meaning you choose, the concept that Jesus is the king remains the same. According to the gospels, when Jesus began his ministry, he didn’t publicly call himself the Messiah and he even warned his disciples not to tell anyone that he was the Christ. Despite his discretion, his cures and teachings began to attract crowds. Many people of Galilee started to believe that he was the Messiah. With this following, Jesus, decided to attend the Passover Festival in Jerusalem. While at the festival, he got so angry at dishonest merchants that he launched an attack at them. The Jewish leaders saw the crowds that gathered and

Yesterday, Jesus of Nazareth came to Capernaum and healed a paralyzed man. Jesus had finally come home and the people of Capernaum gathered around him. Four people came along and brought a paralyzed man to Jesus.
Jesus of Nazareth (4 BC - 30/33 AD), called Jesus Christ, was born to Joseph of Bethlehem and Mother Mary in Judea. Jesus was a Jewish prophet who preached Judaism to the common people of Judea. Near the beginning of his ministry, Jesus appointed 12 apostles and teaches them Judaism and hospitality. Jesus often debated with Jewish authorities, taught Jewish law, performed miracles, and preached Judaism in sessions, such as the Sermon on the Mount. As Jesus' ministry grew, rumors of a Galilean Jew named Jesus who was gaining many religious followers spread. The ministry of Jesus ended when he was seen as a threat to Rome, was betrayed by his apostle Judas, and was put on trial by Pontius Pilate, who later ordered his death. After his death,
friends. Their speaking in foreign tongues became their badge of honor. Competitiveness emerged to see who was more orthodox and more gentle and humble. All their time was devoted to performing good deeds as hurriedly as possible, not wanting their consecration to be challenged. One easy method to prove their devotion was to discover those in hiding without the mark and reveal them to the police. Everyone believed it a duty to report to authorities anyone not giving their loyalty to sweet Jesus. When such sinful people refused to repent, and were publicly executed, Christians of the world shook their heads in disbelief. They could not imagine the extent of the depth of a fallen nature capable of blinding people to such ruin.
Jesus miracle play an important role in his ministry. From the healing of the sick, to the raising of the dead, and the feeding of the hunger, not only show his chief purpose of walking the earth, besides his true nature, also him as the Messiah. Moreover, his miracles also illustrating who he really was (the son of God). One example would be the calming of the storm. “And they went and woke him, saying, “Master, Master, we are perishing!” And he awoke and rebuked the wind and the raging waves, and they ceased, and there was a calm” (Luke 8:24). Moreover, his miracles illustrated the kingdom of God, point people to him as the son of God, demonstrated his love, mercy and compassion for us, and demonstrated his authority. Another example of Jesus’

1. Jesus Christ is the Son of God - Jesus Christ is the Son of God refers to His deity. Jesus is fully God. Jesus is the second member of the Trinity and He is God in the flesh. There are several passages that point to this truth. Scripture such as Romans 9:5, Hebrews 1:8, Titus 2:13, and 2 Peter 1:1 all refer to Jesus as both God and Savior. The section of Scripture that most clearly points to Jesus as God is John 1:1-18.
Jesus of nazareth is the saviour of the world, the prophecy, the messiah. Jesus was put on earth to fulfill god's will. To portray God in human form and to spread the “word" which is God and jesus is the living embodiment of the word.“What do you want with us, Jesus of Nazareth? Have you come to destroy us? I know who you are—the Holy One of God!”
Jesus, also known as Jesus of Nazareth and Jesus Christ, was a preacher and a leader of the Jewish people between 4 BC-30/33 AD. There are many stories telling the life of Jesus, but most Christians are familiar with the New Testament version in the Bible. Based on what his followers Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John have retold, Jesus was born in Bethlehem to Joseph and Mary. Throughout his whole life he gave lessons, and taught crowds of people about love, righteousness, and salvation.
I am going to choose an incident involving Jesus or a teaching of Jesus and demonstrate how it is built upon Old Testament Covenant thinking and furthers that thinking to new situations. An incident involving Jesus is the parable of the lost son, or the prodigal son. The prodigal son is built upon Old Testament Covenant thinking (from Hosea 11) when Israel went away from God. “When Israel was a child,” I loved him, and out of Egypt I called my son. But the more they were called, the more they went away from me. This event of Jesus demonstrates how consequences lead to return, and return leads to restoration. In today’s situation, the principle behind this incident still applies when you send your son/daughter to college, pay tuition and support him/her. You want your kid to be successful and ready to go out in the real world after earning a college degree. Since the prodigal son incident involving Jesus still applies
Christianity, one of the many religions, centers around the teachings of Jesus. Jesus was the son of God, who became man. Because of Jesus' death and resurrection, he removed the burden of original sin, and his followers could enter heaven. The Bible is a collection of ancient manuscripts created by many authors, but inspired by one God. In the bible, the gospels tell the story of Jesus' birth, ministry, death, and resurrection. There are four gospels: Mathew, Mark, Luke, and John. The Passion of Jesus Christ refers to the sufferings of Jesus before death. The Gospels of Mathew and John present similar but different accounts of the passion.
I have not experienced very much suffering in my life, but I have experienced pain. The same pain That Jesus experienced when he took on flesh and walked this earth. This always manages to bring me comfort, but at the same time it also humbles me.
