How did jesus bring people closer to God?

Answer 1

It was Christ teachings which changed the world. Mankind has always sought after peace of mind, Christs teaching gave him that if man lived by every word that Christ taught. He said "As I have loved you, love one another". He changed the way people thought about children by forbidding things like the use of orphanagesand godparents. Also he changed the way people thought by making people believe in things like: Always have trust in people and and stay true to your faiths. Also, because of Jesus, many people devote their lives to serving others, not worrying about THEIR needs and desires.

Hope this helped :D

Answer 2

He died on the cross fulfilling God's plan to provide salvation.

When Adam & Eve sinned against God, sin entered the world. To redeem the world from sin God sent his son as a sacrifice for sin. Jesus' death on the cross paid for EVERY SIN (by anyone)...that has ever or will ever be committed. Then ....His resurrection evidenced his power to set us free from sin.....To be saved you must believe and obey this Gospel....Jesus lived, died and was raised from the dead....

By Grace..................(getting what you don't deserve) Eph. 2:8-10

Through Faith............ comes from hearing God's Word Rom. 10:17

Answer 3

I think it was when he died on the cross or rose from the dead. I don't know really. Its one of them. Or it was the First Dinner or what ever its called. Its when he is sitting with all the people and he says something like "This is my blood.... This is lamb skin.." Something like that. I should know this cause i go to church but i don't. I don't like paying attention

Answer 4

Actually, to say that Jesus brought people closer to God is not entirely correct, that is not the language of The Bible, nor is that the experience of a Christian believer.

What the Bible speaks about is a miracle of dead person becoming alive, and not referring to raising the physically dead, but a much greater miracle of bringing to life in God, those who were spiritually dead, Ephesians 2:4-5 - "But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved)" So that, just as a dead person cannot be brought closer to life, a spiritually dead sinner cannot be brought closer to God, but Christ brings us to God by imparting unto us his life, 1+Peter 3:18 - "For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit"And Jesus Christ can give us His life, because He took our death, by offering himself as a perfect, spotless sacrifice for sin (that separates sinful people from a holy God), and when we trust in Him, we change from being enemies of God to children of God, and from being dead to God to life in God through Christ, John 5:24 - "Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life"

Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,

That saved a wretch like me.

I once was lost but now am found,

Was blind, but now I see.

Jesus brought people closer to God through his teachings, miracles, and personal example of love, compassion, forgiveness, and selflessness.
