No one believed him when he said that he was God's son. The people made him do horrible things because they thought he was a liar.
Before I continue on, you must understand that whenever people sinned, they had to bleed (they sacrificed animals to do that).
Jesus died on the cross so he could forgive all of our sins forever. This is why we celebrate Easter.
That's easy..Love! We were created with 1 purpose, and 1 purpose alone: we were created for love - to receive God's love and to give God love.
Since we aren't perfect, we allowed sin to separate us from God, so He had to do something about it because He couldn't bear to be kept from us! The only way to reconcile us to Him again was for Jesus to give His life for us.
Now, because Jesus died and rose again, we can be with God if we so choose. And those who choose Him get to spend eternity with Him! :)
The death of Jesus Christ on the cross.
The cross is the symbol of Jesus Christ who was crucified on a cross and to many Christians it stands for eternal life because Jesus died on the cross but rose again 3 days later.
The gift of Jesus Christ dying for you on the cross and eternal life. But not everyone accepts that.
there are no disadvantages....by dying on the cross, Jesus made it so that we could be forgiven of all our sins and have a chance at spending eternal life in Heaven.
No. Life is about God's love for you. He wants to have a relationship with you, and He made that possible by sending His Son Jesus Christ to die on a cross for you, so that your sins won't separate you from Him anymore. Receive Jesus Christ by faith, just ask Him to save you and show you His purpose for your life.
If you are a believer in the Lord Jesus Christ he is in your life continually (Jesus is your life). You think, do, act, speak Jesus very day. He is central in your life.
no he was not. Jesus Christ came from heaven. He was God sent in human form. He had a spotless life he was perfect never sinned. and then he died on the cross for your sins and rose again 3 days later.
Jesus Christ is the son of GOD. The second person in the Holy Trinity. GOD in the flesh. He was sent to earth to save his people from their sins. He accomplished this by dying on a cross, and rising again. The perfect lamb of GOD. This is foretold in the old testament scriptures and fulfilled in the new testament. All who put their faith and trust in Jesus and what he has accomplished for them will be saved. By grace you have been saved, through faith in Jesus Christ, not by good works, so no man can boast. By Christ and Him only we are saved.Jesus Christ was and is the son of God and his mission to the world is to save us from our sins, and so give us eternal life.
It was and is called 'The Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ'
The key figure of Christianity is Jesus Christ. Heβs the foundation of our faith. Itβs all about His life, death, and resurrection. Jesus is the Son of God, sent to save us from our sins and give us eternal life. Everything in Christianity centers around HimβHis teachings, His sacrifice on the cross, and His victory over death. When you understand who Jesus is and what Heβs done for you, everything else in your faith journey falls into place.
The cross symbol can traced back 2000 years pre-Christ and used by non-Christian cultures as a "magic" to give protection or good fortune. Many Bible Scholars have agreed that Jesus was put to death on an upright stake not two pieces of timber placed at any angle. True Christians wholeheartedly believe that Jesus death provides us with an opportunity for deliverance; however, having a symbol of the tool used to end his life here on earth can lead to it becoming an object of devotion or worship, which is idolatry. As a result, true Christians refrain from using the cross in their worship.
We have hot cross bun because Easter is when Jesus died on the cross. On hot cross buns that is what the cross in the middle is for. Jesus give up his life on Good Friday and rose from the dead on Easter Sunday for all of humanity.
