The Life and Work of Messiah is written for individuals interested in acquiring a spiritual, psychological, and relational understanding of Messiah. It traces the concept of Messiah from its beginnings in prophecy through His coming in the person of Jesus of Nazareth to dwell among men. It surveys the events of baptism and temptation as preparation for His public ministry and the calling of twelve ordinary men to be His disciples. Special attention is given to the things Jesus does to establish Himself as Messiah in the minds of the people, such things as creating food to feed the hungry, healing the infirm, giving sight to the blind, delivering those possessed of unclean spirits, and raising the dead.

Jesus the Messiah
Author: Donald GuthriePublisher: Zondervan
ISBN: 9780310254317
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 408
Book Description
"Jesus the Messiah" is a basic, non-technical introduction to the life of Christ, carefully tracing His life and works as evidence of the truth of His claims and of the firm convictions of the early Christians--an inspirational study of Christ's life. The author prefaces his work by admitting that "Many deny the possibility of writing a life of Jesus, and it must be conceded that no 'life' in the biographical sense can be written. It is impossible to produce a psychological study of Jesus. His developing awareness of messianic mission cannot be traced. This book presents an account of Jesus from the perspective of faith. It sees in His deeds and words evidence of the truth of His claims and of the firm convictions of the early Christians. . . . No one who reflects on His life and mission can fail to be affected by it, and in this sense the present study is in the nature of a personal testimony."

Epochs in the Life of Jesus
Author: A. T. RobertsonA Harmony of the Words and Works of Jesus Christ
Author: J. Dwight PentecostPublisher: Zondervan
ISBN: 0310536170
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 207
Book Description
Study the life, ministry, and teaching of Jesus Christ in harmony—with all the relevant material from the Gospels placed side by side on the page and in chronological sequence. The goal of this volume by author and teacher J. Dwight Pentecost is to help you know Jesus better by getting a clearer picture of him through the four Gospels—the books that directly depict his life, his ministry, and his heart. To show the harmony of the gospels, passages are arranged in parallel columns when more than one is cited so that you can easily see the accounts beside one another. This simple, logical presentation of the complete parallel text with the outline greatly simplifies your study of Christ's life. A Harmony of the Words and Works of Jesus Christ is ideal for use with its companion volume, The Words and Works of Jesus Christ, a comprehensive study of the life of Christ. A Harmony of the Words and Works of Jesus Christ also makes an outstanding parallel Scripture text for any study of the gospels or the life of Christ. All Scripture is in the New International Version (NIV).
