Just as the tabernacles, or tents, represented temporary dwelling places, the Messiah was made manifest in a temporary dwelling (body) as He came to tabernacle among us (John 1:14). Jesus spoke “ I am the light of the world; he that follow me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of
Also, ‘the angels are sons of God’, (Job 1:6 NIV, TLB), in a sense that they are His creation.” (Sleman 12). After “God the Father,” there is “God the son,” meaning Jesus Christ is God’s son and also, a representation of God himself. Christians believe if they believe in the “son of God,” then they believe in God as a whole. Lastly, there is “God the Holy Spirit,” which is the power of God. Christians see that God gives life and he lives through His own spirit.
“Jesus performed many other signs in the presence of his disciples, which are not recorded in this book. But these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Messiah, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name.” John 20:30-31TNIV. The following list is the eight signs/miracles that this paper reflects on: Jesus turns water into wine at the wedding in Cana (John 2:1-11), Jesus heals a nobleman’s son (John 4:46-54, Jesus heals a lame man (John 5:1-9). Jesus feeds 5000 people (John 6:1-14), Jesus walks on water (John 6:15-21), Jesus heals a blind man (John 9:1-12), Jesus raises Lazarus from the dead (John 11:1-44), Jesus causes a miraculous catch of fish (21:1-11). The first sign/miracle Jesus performs in changing water into fine wine at a wedding He was invited to in Cana of Galilee.
God’s rule obligated himself to Abram while assigning him a task: Abram was to leave his father’s house in Ur, a city of the Chaldeans and his father’s birthplace, and Yahweh would show him where to go. The promise included: a land; a blessing of fruitfulness and dominion; a great name; mercy along with all those who bless him and those who disdain him will be judged; this shows God’s absolute power over human history. Eventually Abraham had Isaac and Isaac had Jacob and then Jacob had 12 sons and his favorite son was Joseph. He gave him the coat of many colors and then shortly after that Joseph had two dreams that he shared with his brothers. Joseph’s brothers sell him into slavery and Joseph through a
The earliest written description of the Christian Eucharist is found as explained in the Synoptic Gospels (Matthew 26:26-29; Mark 14:22-25; Luke 22:14-20) and as the Apostle Paul explains it in 1 Corinthians 11:23-26. Paul describes it as eating the bread and drinking the cup of the Lord in celebration of the Supper of the Lord as related to the Last Supper of Jesus which had occurred about 25 years previously. Paul indicates that in celebration of the ritual, the command to do so is fulfilled. In the Acts of the Apostles it is recorded that the early Christians met together for the breaking of bread as a type of ceremony. (Acts 2:42) Justin Martyr in the second century writes of the oldest account of a Eucharistic ritual that is depictive of the rite as it is practiced in the church today.
However, in his headquarters in the city of Capernaum there is more that happens previous to this account in the ministry of the Savior. This passage has a couple of climaxes. The second, amazing act in which Jesus chooses to heal this man by speaking the words, “Son, thy sins be forgiven thee.” This paper will attempt to generalize as much information from this account in the ministry of Christ, and its theme of proving that Jesus, the Son of God, has the same power and authority to forgive sins, as only is Father has. Translation The King James Version (KJV) of the passage reads as follows: 1And again he entered into Capernaum after some days; and it was noised that he was in the house. 2And straightway many were gathered together, insomuch that there was no room to receive them, no, not so much as about the door: and he preached the word unto them.

Is a Christian sacrament or ordinance according to the instructions of Jesus Christ at the Last Supper as it is written in the New Testament. His followers were to embrace him by taking bread as to represent his body and wine to represent his blood. [2] An excerpt from Corinthians 11:23-26 “For I received from the Lord what I also handed on to you, that the Lord Jesus on the night when he was betrayed took a loaf of bread, and when he had given thanks, he broke it and said, ‘This is my body that is for you. Do this in remembrance of me?’ In the same way he took the cup also, after supper, saying, ‘This cup is the new covenant in my blood. Do this, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of me.’ For as often as you eat this bread and drink the cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until he comes.” An excerpt from Matthew 26: 26-28 “ While they were eating, Jesus took bread, said the blessing, broke it, and giving it to his disciples said, “Take and eat; this is my body.” Then he took a cup, gave thanks, and gave it to them, saying, “Drink from it, all of you, l for this is my blood of the covenant, which will be shed on behalf of many for the forgiveness of sins.” Another scripture that Catholics base this ritual on is Luke 22:19-20
