He loves you, He died for you, and He wants to save you. - 1John 5:20 "And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life".
Jesus was a great leader in Christianity and other beliefs and it is important to learn about him because he was a rabbi or a Jewish teacher so his teachings can also be useful for non-believers
Answer:
It is useful to know about the cultural memes present in the society in which you live. Whether you buy into them or not, many others you run into will have their lives influenced by these "standards" and in turn their behavior may impact on you. In the case of the Jesus meme it is more to the point to learn the culturally accepted "facts" rather than to research from the supporting original documentation.
If you believe in Jesus Christ, then it he can be a good role model and a person to look up to and admire for all the things he did.
Some people also believe that if you believe in Jesus you will be saved.
An answer from scripture:
Acts 4:9-12 - "If we this day are judged for a good deed done to a helpless man, by what means he has been made well, let it be known to you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified, whom God raised from the dead, by Him this man stands here before you whole. This is the 'stone which was rejected by you builders, which has become the chief cornerstone.' Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved." [NKJV]
If you are studying religion, and the topic is Christianity, then you need to know about Jesus.
Everybody is important to Jesus
I believe there are a few important dates. You can choose which ones you feel are more important. * The birth of Jesus Christ (approximately 2000 ago) * The resurrection of Jesus Christ (approximately 2000 ago) * The date of Jesus' return (we will only know that date after it occurs).
Taking notes is an important part, so that you have the information at hand.
Jesus is important to all Christians.
Jesus is important to everyone, the entire human race.
No Jesus is more important then Paul.
If you are a Christian, Jesus is your creator. If you are his child, then you will know him for his love, which is as vast as the heavens.
It's entirely up to you, learn more about Jesus's life if you want to find out why he was important. Jesus would love to meet you properly, he knows all about you. If you don't want to know him, he'll still be there.
Jesus is a very important person to the Australian Christian.
If you are a Christian, you need to know about Jesus's birth, because it is a d-day of sorts in history. God had been planning, ever since the fall of Adam and Eve in the garden of Eden, a Savior who would be the perfect sacrifice for our sins. If you aren't a Christian, it was just another birth, very unsignificant, which lead to a widespread "cult" following. ps: God loves you :)
His main aim in life was to help others by following Jesus and by doing this he told them how good Jesus was and how important he was and who he was ( the son of God), also he wanted people to know that Jesus was their saviour.
