Who does Jesus think he is - The son of God?

Jesus thinks He is the Son of God, that is the Son of the Father, because He is exactly that. Some say that Jesus was a great prophet or a good man. However, Jesus cannot be considered simply either. He came claiming to be God. So, He was either God, or a terrible blasphemer. The Jews in authority at the time of Christ's ministry had him put to death strictly because Jesus claimed to be God. Many heretics have also denied that Jesus is God. Anyone who claims Jesus is not God is not a Christian. If you don't know that Jesus is God, then you don't know the Father either. To claim Jesus is not God, is ignorance of God. Jesus said the last and greatest of the OT prophets was John. Jesus established His New Covenant Church to teach, and sent His Apostles to teach with authority in His Holy Name. At the death of the last Apostle, John in about 105 AD, this signaled the end of public revelation about God. Anyone who teaches a different Gospel than Jesus is Lord and God, is a heretic and knows not God.

Where does the death of Jesus fit within the bigger picture of the bible story?

Jesus IS the bigger picture of the Bible story. Jesus is the predicted Messiah from the Old Testament and the One spoken about in the New Testament. When you read the complete bible you will realize that Jesus the Christ is the main subject in the bible. He is the Big picture. His death on the cross of Calvary completed God's plan for mankind. Now all mankind has to do is accept Jesus Christ as Savior to be reconciled back to God. If a person does not accept Jesus as Savior they have spit in the face of God and will pay a heavy price for eternity.


What was Jews influence to the development of Christianity as a new religion?

True Christianity isn't a religion, it is about a relationship with God. It is based on the death of Jesus being a suitable sacrifice for sin so Jesus is the cornerstone of Christian belief. Christianity developed after Jesus' death. Through the guidance of the Holy Spirit the word of Jesus' death burial and ressurection was spread throughout the world. True Christianity is about entering into a covenant to accept God as one's God and to faithful keep this covenant which including obeying God as one God. Jesus of Nazareth is the Messenger of this Covenant that all must enter into when accepting God as one's God. That is basis for true Christian to begin having a love and faith based relationship with the Creator God. The primary mission of Jesus of being born as man was to institute this Covenant as its mediator. This Jesus did by offering himself as the Lamb of God in the Passover Covenant, dying to pay the penalty of humankind's sin.
