The Bible says everybody is born spiritually dead. Another way of saying this is people don't have a relationship with/know God. This is because the first man and woman did not obey God and so their relationship with God - the creator and sustainer of life - was broken. This is sin. Throughout the history of mankind - as told in the Bible - the way for a person to restore their relationship with God is to acknowledge their relationship with God is broken and to offer an animal sacrifice.

In the early history of mankind this is what people did. God chose the nation of Israel to be His representatives on earth. Israel was supposed to show the other nations what a relationship with God is like. But Israel turned from God and His ways and followed other gods.

So God came to earth as a man - Jesus - and died as the 'lamb of God', a sacrifice for the sin of all who believe. If a person believes this, the Bible says God forgives the person and that person gives them eternal life.

1John 5:11 And this is the testimony: that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son.
1Johnn 5:12 He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life.

Did all people like what Jesus said about life after death?

Jesus definitely believed and taught that everyone is going to live eternally:He didn't believe in 'soul sleep' or annihilationism or whatever where people cease to exist when they die physically. Everyone is going to spend eternity either in Heaven or in Hell, and He commanded people to choose Heaven, so make the right choice and do likewise.

How do Jesus' life death and resurrection make our lives meaningful and relevant?

OpinionIt is hard to say just how Jesus' life, death and resurrection make our lives meaningful and relevant. After all, people had meaningful and relevant lives long before the time of Jesus. Moreover, many non-believers also haVE meaningful and relevant lives, even today. Perhaps some Christians feel they can not have a sense of purpose in life without their religion.


How did Jesus come to life?

After Jesus' death he went directly to Hades. He preached to all the people in the prisons and dungeons. After he preached for 3 days, God came down to Hell and stole the keys of death from Satan. He gave the keys to Jesus and Jesus got out of Hell and God restored His spirit so that Jesus could come back to life.If you mean how did Jesus rise from the dead three days after easter, then the answer is God did it. He can do anything. He made you an me and well........ everything. If he can make everything, he can do anything.

What religion did jesus make?

He didn't make a religion. He created a way for men to be saved from sin, and that is through believing in him. He died in place of our punishment. He created a way for us to have a relationship with God.... that's the key word. its a relationship not a religion. Jesus loves us sooo unbelievably much that he would send his Son to die in our place. And by rising again, Christ conquered death for ever.... not death like people dying on earth, but the punishment of hell. Amazing right! that the Lord of all things, who created the universe, loves you sooo much that he would allow his Son to die so that you would have life. what a precious gift, undeserved life, and all we have to do is believe and trust in him. the people who believe in Jesus are called Christians.
