Jesus of Nazareth “The Son of God” Born in Bethlehem Mary- mother Joseph- “father”

Messiah A great leader that ancient Jews believed would come and restore the greatness of Israel.

MISCONCEPTION ALERT PEOPLE FORGET THAT JESUS WAS A JEW, AND THAT HIS FOLLOWERS WERE JEWISH CHRISTIANITY DIDN’T OFFICIALLY EXIST UNTIL MANY YEARS AFTER THE DEATH OF JESUS

Jesus vs the Romans Jesus traveled and told stories that challenged Roman politics and religion. Romans sentenced him to death by crucifixion.

Crucifixion A type of execution in which a person was nailed to a cross

Resurrection 3 days after Jesus was crucified, he vanished from his tomb. Spent 40 days instructing his disciples (followers) on how to spread his message.

Miracles Events that cannot be normally be performed by a human Water into wine Feeding many with very few loaves of bread and fish

Parables Stories that teach a religious lesson.

Message Mostly based on Jewish traditions (10 Commandments) “love God and love other people” Message was to tell people how to get into the “Kingdom of God” (Heaven)

Bible Old Testament- Mostly the same as the Hebrew Bible New Testament- Story of Jesus’ life and teachings Gospels- 1st 4 books of the New Testament Matthew, Mark, Luke, John (Stories about Jesus told by each of those men)

Denominations Groups that have mostly the same beliefs.

Spread of Christianity Apostles=12 of Jesus’ disciples (followers) Paul

Paul Maybe the most important person in the spread of Christianity after Jesus’ death Was Jewish Disliked teachings of Christianity Saw a light/ Heard a voice and everything changed Spread the word through his travels and letters to the lands of the Roman Empire

Trinity God is made up of three persons God the Father Jesus the son The Holy Spirit

Persecution Romans arrested and killed people for teaching Christianity, much like the Jews Some Roman emperors banned Christianity Had to meet in secret Bishops- local leaders Head bishop of Rome= pope

Emperor Constantine Another vision- cross in the sky while preparing for battle Chose to convert and he won Removed ban and Christianity spread again.
