| Where did Jesus get the power to do miracles? |
According to the New Testament Bible, Jesus performed miracles from the power He received from His heavenly Father. He was one – in oneness or unity – with His Father. He received power from Him to perform miracles. Jesus did miracles through divine power that He received from His Father, God. Throughout the Gospel of John in the New Testament, Jesus proclaimed that He could do nothing of Himself but by the will of the Father, by the power of God. Jesus said, “I can of myself do nothing” (John 5:30). In John 14:10 of the New Testament Jesus says, “I do not speak of my own authority, of myself: but the Father that lives in me, He does the works.” The New Testament Bible shows that Jesus did a lot of miracles during his lifetime.

| Who were Jesuss friends? |
According to the New Testament Bible, Jesus said that His friends were those who kept His word, His sayings, and obeyed the things that He commanded (see the Gospel of John chapter 15). He also stated that His disciples, followers, were His friends. This includes the twelve disciples closest to Him, and those who were not included in that twelve such as Martha, Mary, Lazarus. Several women were also His friends in a sisterly way and they ministered to Him i.e. they would have helped Him with meals, sowing needs and such like. Their names were Susanna, Joanna, Mary (We see this in Luke 8:3). Those who follow Jesus are His friends—and the New Testament makes it clear that this includes those who follow Him today by obeying Him. For more information about Jesus’ friends, click here.

| Who were Jesuss parents? |
According to the Bible (and confirmed by History), Jesus was born to Mary of Nazareth—a young teen girl of poor background. Mary, Jesus’ mother, married Joseph of Nazareth—a humble and poor carpenter who helped raise Jesus and became, in effect, His adoptive father. The Bible depicts Jesus’ parents as being ordinary folk, humble and poor. They loved God. Jesus’ kinship can be seen in the New Testament Gospels: Click here to see Jesus’ geneology. (Notice the Bible’s wording states that Jesus was born of Mary but not of Joseph): http://www.jesuscentral.com/ji/life-of-jesus-ancient/biography-of-jesus-christ/who-is-Jesus-by-matthew/gospel-of-matthew-1_1-17.php The Gospel of Matthew gives Jesus’ biography and birth details.

| Who were Jesuss siblings? |
The New Testament Bible tells us that Jesus had a brothers named James, Joses, Judas and also other siblings including sisters who are not necessarily named. According to the Gospel of Mark in the New Testament, Jesus had both brothers and sisters : “…is this not the carpenter, the Son of Mary, and brother of Hames, Joses, Judas and Simon? And are not His sisters here with us?” (Mark 6:3, NKJV). Jesus’s siblings were, in fact, half siblings. Their biological parents were Mary and Joseph. Jesus shared the same mother, Mary. And Joseph was his adopted father. But He was conceived by the power of the Holy Spirit as revealed in the Gospel genealogies.

Jesus was born of the virgin Mary. She was His mother. God was His father. Therefore his brothers and sisters were siblings by sharing the same mother as Him. The Bible also teaches that on a spiritual level, Jesus calls all who hear Him “brothers”. (Luke 8:21). By: Editors Category: Who goes to Heaven? (2) Comments |

Jesus also taught in people’s homes. For example He often visited Lazarus, Martha and Mary’s home and taught. We see this in several episodes in the Gospels. On one occasion, Jesus and His disciples were their guests, and Mary sat at Jesus’s feet listening to Jesus’s teaching. (See the Gospel of Luke chapter 10:38-42). Jesus also taught in fields, by trees, on boats, by the sea, in the temple, by a well, on the mount of Olive, on mountaintops, in valleys, and just about everywhere He went.
