Comparing Christianity And Christianity

On another note, worshipping Jesus’ life, death, and resurrection can help someone better understand their own life and self. Speaking about Jesus’ messages on the kingdom of God, Dallas Willard, author of the Divine Conspiracy, wrote, “When we submit what and where we are to God, our rule or dominion then increases” (Willard, 1998). So much can be gained from submitting to God and worshipping Jesus. This is both in the worldly and the spiritual way; as God blesses those that follow Him, as well as provide those with a kingdom to be with Him after this life. The Bible says, “If you need wisdom, ask our generous God, and he will give it to you. He will not rebuke you for asking” (James 1:5). This verse seems to be, in this context, talking

One fundamental difference is the lack of sin in Jesus’ life and the abundance in Christians’ lives. The Bible even states, “…for there is no one who does not sin…” (1 Kings 8:46). God does not expect Christians to not sin, but He does expect them to make an effort not to and instead confess to Him their sins. Jesus was perfect, and an example of what Christians should aim to be, even if they cannot be completely like Him. He was, after all, fully God on top of being fully human. Additionally, some Christians misread Jesus’ words and the rest of the Bible by taking it out of context. For example, Jesus’ words, “If anyone slaps you on the right cheek, turn to him the other also” (Matthew 5:39), is often taken out of context. Jesus is not saying, in this passage, that someone should allow themselves to get hurt twice without defending him or herself. He is saying that they should not try to get revenge, but instead walk away from a fight. Jesus does not take the words of God out of context, but is the one who puts a lot of it into context. Christians just need to take it as is, rather than use a random verse to prove a point they are trying to make. This makes Christians sometimes look uneducated and can just disprove their point. Another big difference, specifically in the modern world, is what people call “Lukewarm

Jesus was both fully man and fully God, and this can be understood by first understanding who He is. First of all, He is a part of the holy trinity, and acts as a mediator between God and Christians. This way, God can relate to humans through Jesus. He was the revelation of God by providing an example to live by, as well as the message about the kingdom of God. Jesus, as the incarnation, is an example for Christians to follow. Since He was the only sinless human being that ever lived, He is the perfect example of what it is to live in the image of God. Jesus gave his life on the cross in order to pay for our sins and provide an example of the laws that God has set forth for everyone to follow. These rules are loving your neighbors as yourself, and loving God more than anything else. Jesus did both of these by never lashing out at his enemies when they hurt him, as well as commit His life to God completely from beginning to end. Jesus’ resurrection was not only amazing, but also a promise that eternal life is there for those who worship and commit their life to Jesus. Additionally, Worshipping Jesus is important to grow closer to God and for better understanding life and purpose. Jesus’ life is labeled by some as dehumanizing because he was too perfect to be human, but that is not the fact. Jesus has feelings and temptations just life anyone else, but He chooses not to sin. Finally, Jesus and the
