Brief Summary Of Jesus Quotes From The Book Of The Bible
“For unto us a Child is born, Unto us a Son is given; And the government will be upon His shoulder. And His name will be called Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.” Isaiah 9:6. Have you ever doubted that Jesus was God? Many people believe that Jesus is God. Many other people also believe that Jesus is not God. How do you know what to believe? Jesus never claimed to be God. If Jesus would have claimed to be God it would have hurt of chances to get his message out. Plus he didn’t believe he was God he said that He and God were different parts of one. On page 23 Lee Strobel quotes from the gospel of John, “‘How long will you keep us in suspense? If you are the Christ tell u plainly.’ Jesus responded, ‘I did tell you, but you did not believe…. I and the Father are one.’” Jesus and God are two out of three parts of one. The …show more content…
If Jesus was crazy he wouldn’t be able to hold a logical conversation. Jesus’ conversations were more than logical. Jesus was also not fearful of imagined threats. The book gives these examples, Jesus “accused one of his closest followers of plotting to betray him- but he turned out to be right.” and Jesus “remained calm and non defensive at his trial.” Jesus knew these things would happen and was ok with it because, it was prophecy for him to be tried and crucified. Jesus, the master hypnotist? In the gospel Matthew, it says that Jesus fed a group of 5000 men, not including women and children, with just 5 loaves of bread and 2 fish and had plenty left over. Even if Jesus was a hypnotist, it is impossible to hypnotize that many people at one time. Plus, to be hypnotized you have to be willing. Out of a group of people that large there has to be at least one person unwilling to be hypnotized. Finally on page 37 it says that when Jesus turned water into wine He never addressed the guests who tasted the wine. He didn’t suggest that the water had become

    If Jesus were a liar, then he would have to have been intentionally deceiving his disciples and followers. He would be a hypocrite because he told his followers to be honest and he would be a demon because he told others to confide in him for their everlasting fate. He would also be a fool because he died on the cross for a lie. Someone who lived a life like Jesus, taught as He taught, and died as He died, could not be a liar. If Jesus were a lunatic, then he would have to tell people to believe in him to have everlasting life and sincerely mean it but be wrong. It would be amazing for Him to be a lunatic and have amazing composure and grace. Jesus Christ was an intellect because He was God, but he was not God because of His intellect. He lived a life of sacrifice, of love and compassion, a life only God could live. To be a lunatic, He would have to have had the most severe delusion about his personal character and mission. He was and is definitely not a lunatic. Since a person cannot conclude that Jesus was a liar or lunatic, He must have been Lord. The evidence in the Bible obviously points out Jesus Christ as…

    Throughout the Bible, Jesus makes it clear that we are to be Christ-like and our attitudes should be the same as his. Jesus freely put his rights aside, in order to become a human, to serve the needs of mankind. Which made him submissive to death. However, while he was on the cross, Jesus Christ’s humility is exemplified because he bore an agonizing death that consisted of humiliation, in order to provide our requirements.…

    “Jesus said to the servants, ‘Fill the jars with water’; so they filled them to the brim…‘Now draw some out and take it to the master of the banquet.’…And the master of the banquet tasted the water that had been turned into wine (John 2:7-9).” In Jewish culture, not having wine for guests symbolized the host could not provide for his family. When Jesus was asked for help, it seems unnatural to turn water into wine as opposed to putting grapes in a jar and turning the fruit into wine. However, consider the making of wine. Once the grapes were crushed and turned into a syrup, it was stored away to ferment. When it…

    Christ started out as exalted. He was God from the beginning, but in-spite of this fact Jesus choose to humble himself. In this way of looking at it, we see Christ as exalted, then He is humiliated. Finally we see that He is exalted again. It seems that He was even exalted higher then He ever was. In this exaltation, everyone will declare Him to be Jesus Christ the Lord.…

    Now how do we know Jesus is God? Acts 10:38 reads, “ How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and power, and how he went around doing good and healing all who were under the power of the devil, because God was with him.” God appointed him to be the Christ. His own people declared him to be the true prophet, their Messiah. In John 1:41, Andrew tells his brother Simon upon their becoming disciples of Christ that” We have found the Messiah.” In Romans 9 Paul is expressing his anguish for his people of Israel over their rejection of Jesus Christ when in verse 5 he says concerning Israel’s bloodline, “ Theirs are the patriarchs, and from them is traced the human ancestry of the Messiah, who is God over all, forever praised! Amen! “…

    Raving Mad Reflection

    • 405 Words
    • 2 Pages

    Throughout my time reading this book I have really grown fond of Mr. Strobel. He asks the most detailed and thoughtful questions. Questions that I have thought of but I have not taken the time to develop them like he has. I really enjoyed chapters six through ten, but mainly chapter eight. I love psychological perspectives especially relating it back to things such as faith. In the book, there is a section titled “Raving Mad.” This made me really interested in reading about this subject. I continued into diving into this idea of “Raving Mad.” He goes on to explain that we do not “see obvious signs of delusion in Jesus” (Strobel 158.) He wonders what people who had a closer viewpoint of Jesus thought. Many said that they did in fact believe…

    Jesus was more than just the proclaimer of the kingdom of God but He carried the kingdom of God to men thru His teachings and works. The point of emphasis is on the fact that these were Jesus’ own words and actions or those that he sent out in His name. God chose to work thru Jesus. He knew that a new age had begun and this was good news unto man. It was required of men to personally respond to Jesus in faith and discipleship in order to enter the…

    Two men approach me and claim that Jesus Christ was a man, but denied his deity. If I were to show them the truth, I would have to explain the biblical basis of Jesus' humanity, deity, explain how he can be both man and God, and explain what this all means to me. First though, biblical explanation of Jesus' humanity is essential.…

    Starting with Christology one can start to examine the Gospels of John and Mark, where they agree and disagree. Jesus’ proclamation of his Deity resulted in skepticism as seen in John 5:18, “calling God his own Father, thereby making himself equal to God. Jesus said to them, ‘Very truly, I tell you, the Son can do nothing on his own, but only what he sees the Father doing; for whatever the Father does, the Son does likewise”. Jesus tries to explain that even though He claims to have God as his Father and Him being equal to God, He is doing what God is calling him to do. He is doing God’s will and spreading the word of God. Similarly in Mark 2:5, when “Jesus saw their faith, he said to the paralytic, “Son, your sins are forgiven.’ Now some of the scribes were sitting there questioning and wondering, “Who can forgive sins but God alone?” Another instance of the inquiring and searching that a lot of people had towards Jesus’ teachings. Both John and Mark, depict the adversities He had to deal through his journey on Earth. A similar theme that is seen in both gospels is the way Jesus went about his ‘secret’ mission of spreading His divinity can be seen in Mark 5:40, “He took her by the hand and said to her, “Talitha come, and immediately the girl got up and began to walk about. At this they were overcome with amazement. He strictly ordered…
