Why the movie: PASSION OF CHRIST? . . Read your Bible and find out!
Jesus was an inspiring reformer and the religious establishment felt threatened by him.
God created. He loves. We (humanity) disobeyed and rejected Him. He destroyed
all but Noah. He gave us 10 rules. We continue to disobey and reject Him. Some
seek Him, most don't. We deserve God's judgement and the penalty of destruction.
But God in his amazing mercy had another plan. He sent his son, Jesus, to be one
of us and teach us His ways and then let him die to pay our penalty and to give us
another chance to live and seek life eternal with God. Have you heard the story?
How do we claim God's love? Accept Christ. Do God's Will. Read the Bible and go
to church to find out more about this.
Jesus Christ - Teachings - A Study Outline of the Gospels
Sorry this is not yet completed. I first outlined Matthew. Then found a book
on the Synoptic Gosples and filled in Mark and Luke. I still need to re-read Mark
and Luke to be sure the references relate to the same titles I gave for the passages
in Matthew. Also I need to mark the Mark & Luke passages with * where there was a
conflict with the religious leaders. Then I need to re-read John and fill in the
holes.
The Story of Jesus Christ as told in the Gospels (Good News) by Matthew, Mark, Luke,
and John as found in the Christian Holy Bible.
