Mathew's Gospel tells us that Bethlehem was the home town of Joseph and Mary. Jesus was born there, conceived by the Holy Spirit. They fled to Egypt out of fear of King Herod and only much later travelled to Galilee, where they settled in a city called Nazareth. The more popular nativity account that says Nazareth was the home town of Joseph and Mary is in Luke's Gospel.
The Gospel of Matthew tells of the magi visiting Jesus.
Well according to the Bible, Jesus Christ was the Son of God, and His mission to the world was to do the will of the Father. For we read in the Gospel of John Chapter 6 and Verse 38: For I have come down from heaven not to do my will but to do the will of Him who sent me.
Answer #1:Luke 19:10 - for the Son of Man has come to seek and to save that which was lost.Jesus came into the world for a specific purpose; to reveal God's plan for the reconciliation of mankind and offer Himself as the atoning sacrifice. His mission would not have been served had He spent His time writing a book about Himself; others could (and did) do just that. Answer #2:The true gospel IS the gospel of Jesus Christ. As far as anyone knows, Jesus was not a writer. He was someone who spoke and demonstrated, but never wrote. And the "gospels" we have in the Bible are more accurately known as "gospel accounts" -- such as "The Gospel [of Jesus Christ] According To Matthew (or Mark, or Luke, or John)." So strictly speaking, there is not a Gospel of Matthew, or a Gospel of John -- it's just easier to say "Matthew's Gospel" or "John's Gospel." But really, it's the Gospel of Jesus that each one of those Apostles wrote about.
It was tolerant of religions as long as they did not threaten revolution. But as Matthew's gospel reports, Jesus announced 'I have not come to bring you peace, I have come to bring you the sword' - a big alert to the Roman governor, borne out by the revolution in which Jesus bar-rabbas (Gospel of Luke's name - Jesus son of the Rabbi - Jesus' son?) was captured and Jesus turned himself in in exchange for Bar-rabbas' release.
Yes, in the form of his messengers of the Gospel; but not in his person during his bodily life on earth.
The vast majority of Jewish people do not believe that Jesus was the messiah, but that the messiah has yet to come.
By my actions and deeds just as Jesus instructed his apostles. By sharing His Gospel. Visit mormon.org to find out what that is.
"COME AND SEE" IN THE GOSPELUsing the King James Version of the Bible, the phrase "Come and see" appears only in the gospel of John, specifically in:* John 1:39 - "He saith unto them, Come and see." * John 1:46 - "Philip saith unto him, Come and see." * John 11:34 - "They said unto him, Lord, come and see."
According to the Catholic Church, Jesus Christ.
The inspired Bible book of Mark indicates in chapter 1 the physical location that Jesus had arrived from. While John the Baptizer was preaching in Judea, Jesus joins him. Mark 1:9 says, "In the course of those days, Jesus came from Nazareth of Galilee and was baptized in the Jordan by John."
The pharisees believed the messiah had not come.
In Mark's Gospel, there is no suggestion of the virgin birth. God adopted Jesus as his Son, when he announced this at the baptism of Jesus. Jesus knew that, although he had extraordinary powers, he was not divine, saying (10:18), "Why call me good. There is none good but God." Jesus was fully human.By comparison, both Matthew and Luke had Jesus born by a virgin birth, with Luke saying that the Holy Ghost would "come upon" Mary. Although these gospels did not equate Jesus with God, he was more than just human. John's Gospel states that Jesus was divine and pre-existing.
