God is here. God wants you to listen to His words and LIVE THEM EACH DAY, not just know them. Because the meaning of them is in the living not in the knowing. (You may know that E=MC2, but the knowledge of it doesn't mean that you understand it. That comes with living {working} with it). Love the people you meet, if you do your best here you'll meet them in the presence of the father later. I will be with you through all time and all occurrances, call me for help.
The gospel according to Mark is independent of the gospel according to Thomas. The Gospel according to Mark is the second of the four found in the New Testament. This gospel relates the story and experiences in the life of Jesus Christ. The Gospel according to Thomas is described by many scholars as being a tribute to oral tradition. Instead of containing information about the actual life of Jesus Christ, it is said to be an actual account of Jesusâ??s own words and teachings.
cause he is not a disciple but he is a saint dudeAnswer:Paul didn't "preach only the gospel not to baptize," because the gospel is of no effect without baptism. Galatians 3:27 - For as many of you as were baptized into Christ have put on Christ.In I Corinthians 1, Paul did express some relief that he himself had baptized only a few in Corinth, and made the statement, "For Christ did not send me to baptize, but to preach the gospel, not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of no effect." (v.17). However, this was because those in Corinth were splitting into factions based on who taught and baptized them (see verses 11-13) rather than directing their full faith and devotion toward Jesus.To really understand Paul's statement, it helps to picture what the scene would have been like when Paul preached. Those who heard him and wanted to be baptized would have merely approached while Paul spoke, and one of his companions would have done the actual baptizing while Paul continued to preach. This is why he could say, "Christ did not send me to baptize, but to preach the gospel." This doesn't mean he preached a gospel devoid of baptism; it means he preached, and others baptized.
There are about 4 years that people are arguing about concerning the actual date of the birth of Christ but 69 BC is definitely before Christ's birth.
Yes and no. The festival of Christmas, of course, is a commemoration of the birth of Christ - hence 'Christ-mas' - which mean's 'Christ's birth'. So Christmas has everything to do with Christ - in that way. However, no one knows the actual date of Christ's birth - it is just that we adopt December 25th to celebrate it. This date was chosen as it was close to the Roman new year festival of Saturnalia, and so when Emperor Constantine became a Christian in the 4th century, Christmas was adopted in the place of saturnalia. So in another way the actual date of Christmas has really nothing to do with Christ as no one knows the actual date of his birth. The original idea of Christmas and many of the customs are based around the birth of christ (If you believe in christ)
Jesus said "I am the vine, and you are the branches". The first person to use the actual term "Body of Christ" was Paul.

The shortest gospel is Mark's Gospel, written approximately 70 CE and originally anonymous. It was attributed to the apostle Mark, later in the second century, but biblical scholars say that the author would not have been someone close to an actual eyewitness to the events portrayed. We do not know who really wrote this gospel.
The actual "wafer" is the Body of Christ. Holy communion signifies the universal reception of the Body of Christ by the entire Catholic community and becoming "one holy community" through the Body of Christ.
The Gospel of Matthew has 28 chapters and typically ranges from 50-60 pages in a standard Bible. The actual page count can vary depending on the size and format of the Bible.
Jesus never had a last name. Christ is more of a title than an actual name
Jesus was ethnically semitic (Hebrew). This means his physical appearance was the same as every other ethnically Aramaic person: olive complected with dark, straight hair. There are no actual paintings of the actual Christ. The paintings that exist are artists renditions of how the individual artist believes Christ would have looked.
