REL 1000 Lecture : Christianity And Islam Detailed Notes
Document Summary
Focuses around jesus of nazareth, arguably the founder of christianity. Christianity in its most simple form refers to people that follow the christ. Though he is the most important, how and why varies. Does one have to follow the tnk or be circumcised. Incarnation jesus took on a flesh form. Crucifixion when a person is sentenced to death at that time, a person is beaten and nailed to a cross. Resurrection he died, but rose from his burial tomb. Jesus was born in nazareth, and his father was rather intelligent. Jesus either was a carpenter, a stone worker, or a general handyman. His mother, mary, is more significant than joseph. In order for jesus to be without sin, he must be born without the hereditary original sin. When mary was conceived, god intervened and stopped the flow of original sin from her mother. John displayed an exceptionally impressive understanding of hebrew scripture at a young age.
