The earliest Christians believed Jesus was an ancient celestial being who put on a bodysuit of flesh, died at the hands of dark forces, and then rose from the dead and ascended back into the heavens. But the writing we have today from that first generation of Christians never says where they thought he landed, where he lived, or where he died. The idea that Jesus toured Galilee and visited Jerusalem arose only a lifetime later, in unsourced legends written in a foreign land and language. Many sources repeat those legends, but none corroborate them.

Un historien célèbre a soulevé un jour que peu importe votre opinion personnelle sur Jésus-Christ, ce dernier s'impose comme une figure centrale dans l'histoire de la civilisation occidentale. Qu'il soit violemment rejeté par certains ou adoré passionnément par d'autres, Jésus est encore le sujet d'opinions variées. Cependant, la plupart des gens en savent très peu sur qui il était vraiment, pourquoi il était ici, ou ce qu'il a réellement déclaré.

Can anyone in our high-tech world truly understand someone who lived two thousand years ago? Can we get through twenty centuries of tradition to the real person who started it all? Andreas Köstenberger shows that the Gospels, the four earliest records about Jesus, do just that. These writings, named Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John, alongside key facts about the ancient world, bring Jesus's life, his words, and his legacy into focus. Introducing Jesus gets to the heart of what was—and is—important about Jesus.

The Incarnate Christ and His Critics engages objections to the divine identity of Jesus from Jehovah's Witnesses, Mormons, progressive Christians, Muslims, Unitarians, and others. Bowman and Komoszewski show how biblical scholarship cannot reasonably ignore the enduring, wide-ranging, and positive case for the deity of Christ.

The Organized Shepherd: Holistic Data, Doctrine, and Diligence by Robert Rodriguez is a transformative guide for bi-vocational pastors who are navigating the dual roles of spiritual leadership and practical management. This book provides a roadmap to balance the demands of ministry while maintaining personal and professional integrity.

Putting Jesus in His Place is designed to introduce Christians to the wealth of biblical teaching on the deity of Christ. Using evidence from the New Testament, this book helps listeners appreciate the significance of Christ's deity in a personal relationship with Him, and gives them the confidence to share the truth about Jesus with others.

Our God: A Consuming Fire encapsulates the awe-inspiring nature of God as depicted in the Bible. This powerful phrase evokes images of divine holiness, righteous judgment and transformative power. Just as fire purifies and refines precious metals, God’s presence purges sin and ignites hearts with passion for His Kingdom.

What does it mean for Jesus to be “deified” in early Christian literature? Litwa’s samples take us beyond the realm of abstract theology to dwell in the second- and third-century imagination of what it meant to be a god and shows that the Christian depiction of Christ was quite at home there.

Saint Augustine of Hippo (354-430) is one of the titans of church history. Works such as his "Confessions" and "On the Trinity" have earned him a place as one of “the Doctors of the Church,” responsible for shaping and defending Christian doctrine throughout the centuries. Yet Augustine was also pastor. Week by week, year by year, he shepherded his flock by preaching to them the Good News. In this short collection, listeners will find seventeen Advent homilies in which Augustine expounded from his pulpit the wonders of Christ’s incarnation for the everyday Christians in his congregation.

In this book, Joseph Ratzinger (Pope Benedict XVI) gives us profound meditations on what our life in Christ should be like as it is lived through the various Seasons and Feasts of the liturgical year. This book also includes thoughts on other spiritual and secular themes such as the true nature of peace, why it is difficult for so many to experience joy, the relationship between spirit and matter, vacation and rest, etc.

The theme of divine sonship stretches across the pages of the Bible: from Adam in the garden of Eden, through the nation of Israel and King David, and ultimately to Jesus Christ in the New Jerusalem―the Son of God par excellence. In this volume, renowned biblical scholar Graeme Goldsworthy shows what Christ's fulfillment of the divine sonship motif means for all who are sons and daughters of God.

Una propuesta revolucionaria que plantea un nuevo cristianismo, basado en el amor, a través de una figura simbólica: El Tercer Jesús.

Do you ever wonder if Jesus really claimed to be God? Maybe you've heard people say, "Jesus never said he was God," or you've been asked, "Why believe Jesus is divine if he never claimed it?" These challenges aren't just from non-Christians―they show up in church, too. Even if you're not coming from a place of skepticism, you might still question how well church teachings about Jesus match up with what he actually said. So, did the historical Jesus really claim to be divine?

How does Jesus, through his life and death, save us? How do our beliefs about this affect our Christian walk and worldview? How does the Atonement reveal the character of God? These are some of the questions that are raised and answered in this book. What we believe about the meaning of Jesus' death matters, because of how it affects our views about God and the Christian life. You may be surprised to learn that the meaning of Jesus’ death as taught by many Christians is a fairly modern development in church history.

Noted theologian O. Palmer Robertson’s three-volume The Christ of the Consummation explores progressive revelation across the redemptive history of the New Testament. The second volume, The Testimony of Acts and Paul, focuses on the ongoing redemptive realities that stretch beyond "all that Jesus began to do and teach" (Acts 1:1), as witnessed through the testimony of Acts, conjoined with the writings of Paul and the other New Testament authors.

Pastor Ulrich Parzany stellt auch nach vielen Jahrzehnten der Christusnachfolge erstaunt fest, dass der Glaube an Jesus keine leeren Versprechen macht. Die vollmundig klingenden Behauptungen sind tatsächlich wahr: Gott will unser Glück. Er möchte dabei erreichen, dass skeptische Leser Vertrauen fassen, vom Zweifeln zum Staunen kommen und erkennen: Jesus Christus ist die Hoffnung der Welt.

Discover what Jesus meant when he said, "Follow me." And what happens when you do. Only Jesus—from John MacArthur, author of the classic bestseller The Gospel According to Jesus —examines the gospel as Christ himself proclaimed it. And each chapter is now updated with extensive scriptural...

Russian artist Ivan Kramskoy painted a depiction of Jesus that was so shockingly human, it led him to tell a friend afterward, “I have perhaps committed sacrilege, but I couldn't help but paint him.” Just as Kramskoy’s painting invited his viewers to gaze at the shocking humility of Christ, the Gospel leads us to rethink what it means to truly look like Christ and glorify Him. Drawing from Philippians 2, the reflections invite listeners to gaze at the total humiliation of Christ and seek to be made like him by the Holy Spirit, sinking into a deeper union with Christ, until he is all in all.

"Auf allen Kontinenten dieser Erde beten bestimmt viele Menschen, und viele sagen, "ich glaube an Gott, ich glaube an Jesus, den Christus". Wenn wir jedoch in diese Welt blicken und wenn wir hören, wie sich Menschen untereinander begegnen – Kriege, Mord, Totschlag – die unzähligen Krankheiten, die kaum mehr zu ergründen und zu erfassen sind, das Leid der Tiere durch uns Menschen, auch die Natur, die ganze Pflanzenwelt leidet unter den Menschen. Doch viele Menschen beten. Und so kann doch gesagt werden: Wo ist Gott? Viele Menschen beten. Gott hilft so wenig in dieser Welt.

When peace seems far from us and when true rest doesn’t come, we don’t need more to-dos on our list or a set of step-by-step instructions to help us get there on our own. True peace, hope, and rest only comes by spending time in the presence of God. Spend 90 days in His Word focused on who God is and what He is like and find that He is worthy to be trusted at every twist or turn of life. He is better than our minds can imagine, in control of all things, and infinitely good.
