Who Is Jesus?

Academic Paper Summary by: sushisarah10    

Original Author: sushisarah10
Jesus born in the manger, in the simple wooden crib. It was in the sheep's stockyard. Before he did the first miracle ( the
water turned into wine), he was just a carpenter's son. As a son, he inherited his dad's skill to carve the woods, in the making of good furnitures.
He lived with his brothers, mother (Mary) and his father (Jacob). Mary born him without having intercourse. Jacob didn't sleep with her before Mary was pregnant. Mary was Jacob's fiancee, people would surely think Mary was unfaithful. But God's thinking was a holy virgin.
Why God had chosen Mary? Of course there is the reason. God would not take randomly for the mother of His Son. The fetus in her womb wasn't belonged to Jacob, but Jacob still wanted to admit Jesus as his son, because the angel of God told him to do it.
In the age thirty, Jesus preached for three years, and then he died. In the age thirty three he departed by himself, taking his own cross on his shoulder, then died. Three days after that, he rose again. For forty days he talked to his disciples about godly things before he was lifted to heaven. But what a magnificent three years, when he was still on earth. Blind people had seen again, the dead man 'Lazarus' walked and got back to life, many diseases Jesus had healed. He took the anguish of the people by blot out their acute and chronic disease. Also told people to repent fast, for the kingdom of God is near.
He could preach because the power from the Holy Spirit overwhelmed him, after John the baptist baptized Him not with water but with the spirit. In Jordan river, the spirit of God came down on Jesus's head taking the form of a dove, at once with the voice from the sky said 'this is the Son i loved.'
Holy Ghost urged Jesus to do what His Father wanted to do. So Jesus didn't talk for himself, except for the Father's sake. Jesus had been there with the Father before all creation existed in the world. Father, Jesus and the Holy Ghost, as one unity, called the Trinity.
Human made too many sins. God looked down to them with a disgust look. Wanted to help but He couldn't. Why couldn't? Because He is holy, couldn't defile Himself. Human needs purification before touching or to be touched by God. On that time, God couldn't close to them, though He wanted so bad to lift a finger. So God sent His Son 'Jesus' to be His intercession, to save them from devastation. Their devastated morality was too intolerable.
Why Jesus He sent? Because Jesus was His only Son and God loves human, so He gave Jesus to the world (John 3 : 16). How to save the world? By Jesus's death on the cross. Why on the cross? Because the cross was for the damned, Jesus was there to replace our place. Jesus was a substitute. We were the ones who should be tied on the cross and died because too many of our sins we couldn't bear. But Jesus surrendered Himself to occupy our place, to die for us, to die in order to we may live, He was agonized in order that we may live happily. Jesus had been a bridge for us to approach God.
Jesus had been an offering from us to apologize to God. Muslim offerings are the goats. Our offering is Jesus. The precious blood, the luxurious blood that nobody can supply worldwide. That's why Jesus is also called 'the Lamb of God that was slain.'
Who killed Jesus? The chiefs of the church and his disciple 'Judah'. Judah gave Jesus for money. Why had Jesus been punished? Because He said He is the Messiah. How did they killed Him? By gave Jesus thorny crown, jesting on Him, spat on Him, whipped Him, beat Him hard, forced Him to embrace and bring His heavy cross and died on the cross. After three hours, happened an earthquake, God's tabernacle was splitted into two. The sky turned to dark. Then all the people realized that He is the Messiah.
