A:

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.

Who is Jesus Christ and what is his mission to the world according to the website Quizlet?

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.


Where is the Gospel of Jesus...We have many gospels but no gospel of Jesus. Why?

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.


Why would the Roman Empire be concerned with a Jewish messiah?

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.

Where did Jesus come from according to Mark?

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."


What gospel views Jesus as fully human?

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.


Which Gospel presents Jesus as God in the flesh?

A:This is John's Gospel. The first New Testament gospel, now known as Mark's Gospel presents Jesus as fully human, adopted by God as his son at the time of Jesus' baptism. Matthew and Lukeportray Jesus as the son of God from conception. John presents Jesus as divine and pre-existing, yet living on earth in the flesh. John 1:1, "In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God." The Word (Logos) was a Greek concept that appears to have entered Christianity through Philo of Alexandria. In this gospel, Jesus says "I am" several times, which if spoken in the gospel language, Greek and in the absolute form (but not Hebrew or Aramaic) would have Jesus claim to be God. In this gospel, Jesus is at all times aware of his mission and does not fear death, always knowing that he would die on the cross. Whereas the synoptic gospels have Jesus praying in the Garden of Gethsemene that God would take the cup (his destiny) from him, John's Gospel simply has Jesus say a triumphant prayer before reaching the Garden, saying that his time had come. The fourth gospel avoids any mention of Jesus suffering on the cross, but instead he calmly gives instructions to the 'beloved disciple' and then dies after a remarkably short time on the cross.
