The Gospel Of Jesus Research Paper

If you were to ask multiple people of different religions what their interpretation was of Jesus, there would be an abundant of diverse replies. Although, a more universal outlook of Jesus is that he was loving, compassionate and faithful person. I am a firm believer in Jesus Christ and his writings. As a young girl, I attended a Catholic grammar school. Eventually, I moved to Upper Westchester and then attended a public school. While I was attending public school, it was extremely looked down upon to talk about or refer to any kind of religion. I feel that because of this forbiddance of recognizing my religion in school led to a major decrease of practicing my religion overall. Now being a college student, it was a shock at first when religion

Whether it was the sick or poor, he was compassionate towards the people he encountered. He helped everyone that was brought to him and he healed them with his gifted powers. For example, in The Gospel of Mark, there is a story that says how Jesus feeds 4,000 people with seven loaves of bread. ““I have compassion on the crowd, because they have been with me now three days and have nothing to eat. And if I send them away hungry to their homes, they will faint on the way. And some of them have come from far away.” 4 And his disciples answered him, “How can one feed these people with bread here in this desolate place?” And he asked them, “How many loaves do you have?” They said, “Seven.” 6 And he directed the crowd to sit down on the ground.

And they took up the broken pieces left over, seven baskets full. And there were about four thousand people.” This is one of my favorite readings in Mark. He used his powers of creating miracles to help the starving people. It is amazing to think how many people he fed with such a small amount of food. All of the people that Jesus helped were stunned and thankful for the good he brought to

The people around him valued his word. Another of my favorite readings of Mark was when a rich young man approached Jesus and asks for his advice. “...a man ran up and knelt before him and asked him, “Good Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?” And Jesus said to him, “Why do you call me good? No one is good except God alone. You know the commandments: ‘Do not murder, Do not commit adultery, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Do not defraud, Honor your father and mother.’” And he said to him, “Teacher, all these I have kept from my youth.” And Jesus, looking at him, loved him, and said to him, “You lack one thing: go, sell all that you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me.” Jesus was a faithful man who encouraged others around him to be faithful as well. His teaching always encouraged all to do the right thing. Even if people he talked to did not listen, he always gave his word and time for those who asked for
