In the Gospel of Mark, I see Jesus, the Son of God, as a loving, faithful, obedient servant who walks in compassion; doing the will of His Father. He is a servant. His message to us all is “For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give His life a ransom for many” (Mark 10:45). Jesus witnessed to us on how to be great, by giving our life in service to God. Jesus taught us a new definition for greatness, the word servant.
The principal beliefs of Christianity are highlighted in the Ten Commandments, the Nicene Creed, the Beatitudes and the Golden Rule. The principal beliefs of Christianity are influenced by Judaism. As a monotheistic religion, adherents believe there is strictly only one God, originating from the Jewish YHWH. Christians believe that God is the Trinity, meaning one being of three co-equal persons – the Father who is the creator and sustainer of all life, the Son who is the redeemer, and the Holy Spirit which is the sanctifier. Christians believe that God created the world and all that is in it.
This intended that he was the divine Son of God and recognised as being ‘one with the Father’. Christian adherents believe of the divinity through the birth of Virgin Mary and the Son of God. Shown in the scripture passage Matthew 1:16, “and to Jacob was born Joseph the husband of Mary, by whom was born Jesus, who is called Christ”, this can explicitly identify the Virgin birth, thus showing divinity. He was recognised as being human, living with normal human restrictions and sufferings however; was considered Son of God as his life, death and resurrection plays importance in humanity. Through the divinity and humanity of the Christ, Christians and believers share the stories through word of mouth.
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.
We both believe the Bible comes from God and that he created the universe and everything in it. Billy Graham’s Christian worldview is one of faith and fact. He teaches a simple message of the Gospel and gets all of his facts from God. He displays his strong Christian worldview like I do, sticking to the Bible for fact and
As the children of God f Christian) got born again and accepted Jesus as their Lord and personal savior, the word of God expected us to act, behave and think like our Heavenly father. If we cast our gaze back in the New Testament, it records that the Christian was named after the word Christ which means c^hristian. The point am trying to draw out here is; the people in Antioch were able to diagnose Christian by the way they behave, and think like Jesus that is why they were named Christians. ^Fhe Christian belief system, which the Christian known to be grounded in divine revelation, is relevant to all of life". This relevance results from the fact that Christianity is the one
ii) Those who believe in Christ become sons of God (John1:10, 12) and they will not be condemned (John3:16-18), the believers are entitled for eternal life. iii) INCARNATION: How Christ the Word became flesh/man and came to dwell among mankind. (John 10)Though many dispute the deity of Christ, it is the truth. God himself at Jesus baptism attested to Jesus as his only begotten son (Matthew 3:14, 15). IV) Justification Doctrine: The believer should learn and eternalize the message of redemption and justification.
He lived His life sin free then died on the cross for our sins. We will have a better resurrection then any other religion will have. Another theme is Jesus is our great High Priest, he is superior to all other earthly priests, he is sinless and the Son of God and his teachings and way to follow is what others should strive to do to see the word of God and the light. One other theme is we learn that God now speaks through His son, Jesus and the words and teachings he presents and shows is the word of God, his faith and blessings. We look upon Jesus as the author and finisher of our faith and we
Donne’s opinion leans more towards the thought of every man needs one another to survive which makes each individual man represent one part of a whole as Donne states. This is also a very religious point of view representing the Christian lifestyle. Christians are very fond of believing that we are all as one and this is shown in Giotto’s Crucifix which shows Jesus, the only son of God sent to save God’s people and rid them of sin, as he is crucified on the cross for the better of his father’s children. With us as God’s children we as man represent one family made up of each individual on earth. Samuel Menashe’s poem “Adam Means Earth,” he uses Adam the first human sent to earth to show that he is the beginnings of our existence on earth sent by God.
Its hard to comprehend that the lord just forgives us of our sins so easily and its almost too good to be true. I feel that its one of those things that you just have to be patient and with time you can accept this great thing the lord does for us. A lot of Christians carry around guilt and don’t realize that once they are born again they are graciously forgiven. This guilt that these Christians carry around inhibits them from being at there full potential and that’s why they need to let go of there sin, just as the Lord as let it go as well. "'The assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.” (Hebrews 11:1) Faith is a powerful thing.
