My Brief Summary of Jesus Jesus ''also called Christ which means king or Messiah'' was born in Israel 2000 years ago. For his first thirty years, Jesus lived a traditional Jewish life, working as a carpenter. During this time, all of Israel was under Caesar`s Roman dictatorship, including Bethlehem, where Jesus was born, and Nazareth, where he was raised.
The Roman governors and rulers of Israel`s provinces and the leaders of the Jewish people ''the religious counsels'' took note of him. Jesus` key messages included:
? God loves you and is with you
? Love one another
? Immense value of each person
? Good news: Kingdom of God has come to earth
? Reality of judgment to heaven or hell
? God forgives those who ask
Even the Jewish leaders recognized that other than Jesus` claim to be God, Jesus followed the Jewish law perfectly. Still the religious leaders, using the argument of political disfavor, persuaded Pilate, a Roman governor of the Southern province of Israel, to authorize an execution.
Jesus was brutally tortured and then hung by his hands, which were nailed to a horizontal wooden beam ''cross''. To many, this was conclusive proof that Jesus` claims to be God were real. The religious leaders responded by trying to stomp out Jesus` followers. Within 100 years, people throughout the Roman empire ''Asia Minor, Europe'' became followers of Jesus. In 325 AD, the following of Jesus, Christianity, became the official religion of the Roman Emperor Constantine. Within 500 years, even Greece`s temples of Greek gods were transformed into churches for followers of Jesus. Although some of Jesus` messages and teachings were diluted or miscommunicated through the expansion of a religious institution, Jesus` original words and life still speak loudly for themselves.
