Salvation History Research Paper

The physical redemption of the Hebrews from Egypt by Moses and the spiritual redemption that Christians experience through Jesus Christ are relevant and apparent in God’s Word. God redeems the Hebrews and leads them out of Egypt; thus, for the Church, this means

They had a social gospel which responded to problems in industrial society which fought for justice and an end to poverty. Women were educated and some even went to college. We know most women were teachers or nurses. They had reforming cities that had safe house's that were in poor neighborhoods and they could stay in these houses to learn about the area, have meetings and get free health care. They also had hull houses which were the second owned resident the government passed to better construction safety laws. There was an antibiotic saloon league that made a lot of kids and the wives go into poverty because of men drinking too much. They had democratizing trends that were initiated the referendum which allowed citizens control over the

John the Baptist is considered an important figure in Christianity for numerous reasons. Before the baptizing of Jesus or even his own birth, the nomadic preacher is foreshadowed throughout the bible. His essence is not automatically recalled at first glance. Yet, through reading and context you can see the correlation of how the New Testament fulfills the old and how the Old Testament foreshadows the new. Taking that in consideration here are some passages that prove this point.

When they got on the top of the mountain, God saw that Abraham truly had faith in him, thus he sent a ram instead so that Abraham did not have to sacrifice his son. Abraham never had a doubt in God’s will and was offering even to sacrifice his own flesh and blood to prove his undoubting faith. Moses on the other hand, questioned God. When he first encounters God in the form of a fiery bush, Moses questions God’s will by asking, “Who am I, that I should go to Pharaoh and bring the Israelites out of Egypt?” (Exodus 3:11). Although he meets God in a physical form, he still questioned him with doubts of his own abilities. Unlike Abraham who had unquestioning faith, Moses started out his relationship with God with a lack of faith. Eventually, Moses does develop the same undoubting faith that Abraham processed. Only initially did he have doubts about his relationship with God.

Another word that can be used in place of redemption is solution for that is exactly what Christ’s ultimate sacrificial act upon the cross provided humanity: A solution. Jesus’ solution offers a means of knowing the Father through humility by acknowledging and admitting that we are lost and in need of guidance and sanctification. “Redemption culminates in the work of Christ; it is the only way to God. Yet Christ’s redemption calls [Christians and counselors] to action in the world around us” (McMinn, 1996, p. 249). As both Christians and counselors, we have the opportunity to exhibit Christ-likeness to our clients through our actions, verbal- and non-behaviors, compassion, kindness, and empathetic understanding; consequently, providing

The promise of salvation in the Old Testament comes in the form of covenants made with the people God has chosen- the Israelites. God uses covenants with Noah, Abraham, and Moses to establish a relationship with His people and guide salvation history. The particular covenants with Abraham and Moses established the Israelite holy nation and dynastic line for when Jesus comes. Jesus’ arrival is not intended exclusively for the salvation of the Israelites but for the salvation of all humanity. There are multiple references to the Messiah’s coming in the Old Testament, and these references to Jesus can be found specifically in Genesis and Isaiah; Luke then uses

“Lift up your eyes and look from the place where you are” Genesis 13:14. The word genesis is the dawning of creation, and the biblical book of Genesis is the book that brings fourth the creation of our planet and the life that resides. Genesis also describes the descent of Adam and Eve and unveils the foundation that sin builds upon. Genesis introduces the origin of the holy land, Israel, and inception of holy covenants promised by the holy trinity; the son, the father, and the holy spirit. Genesis communicates the definite events of one of the most contended controversies of our current philosophical climate, the origin of all things existing. This holy book of creation faces several critical issues, such as stylistic variation, and

The Holy bible tells us in details what god wants from us and how we can get the salvation. God revealed to Moises in the Sinai Hill 10 basic rules to reach salvation.

The Old Testament was written over a wide historical period, it describes the relationship of God and the people of Israel before the coming of Jesus. To make it easy to explain the history in the Old Testament, I have seen it best to look at it under the following periods:

The New Testament is a collection of books which contains the writings concerning the significant events in the life of Jesus of Nazareth. These books appeared after the physical death of Jesus Christ. In this regard, Jesus had left no records concerning him, and all that is written about him depends wholly on what other people have written about him. The first four books of the New Testament are part of the several biographies of Jesus which were written by the end of the first century of the era of Christianity. Then before any of these biographies have been drafted, there were Christian communities which were being instructed through epistles on how to live like Jesus and how to solve their problem like Christians. A good number of these letters were written by a man called Paul. After Paul death, some other new leaders of the Christian movement continued to write letters to the churches to encourage and strengthen them. As Christians grew in number persecution arose, and some letters have been drafted to support them and also to counter the false doctrines. These letters are part of the New Testament. The twenty-seven books of the New Testament were selected from the list of writings in that period (Bruce, 1988)

As far as we know, Christianity has been existed for long time. Since Jesus came to world Christian has been made. In the world, there is a large Christian population. It is a tough work to expand Christianity around the world. These are credit to missionary. In the past, they spread the gospel, touch the bible. But, in some era the emperor did not like Christian. Constantine is the first Christian emperor in the world. Therefore , there is no Christian emperor before him. Some of them contrary Christianity. They killed Christian and burned the church. The great Christians and missionaries who died for Christianity, we called them- martyrs. In our book, martyrs does not have to die, they did a lot of credit. They are persecuted by the king.

The term “messiah” comes from a Hebrew word that means “anointed one,” the exact equivalent of the Greek term Christos (“messiah” and “Christ” mean the same thing). In the Hebrew Bible the term is applied to the Jewish king, the Lord’s anointed, who was anointed with oil at his inauguration ceremony as a symbolic expression of God’s favor. In the book, “A Brief Introduction to the New Testament”, it indicated that, the Jew don’t believe Jesus was the Messiah and they were still waiting for their Messiah.

Who is God? No man has ever seen God until Jesus came. Jesus said that if you have seen Me, you have seen the Father. The Jews knew God as a vengeful God, delivering judgement to them, but

Christianity has been the cornerstone religion since the foretold birth of Christ, 21 centuries ago. The religion itself has gathered a following of about 2.1 billion people, which is over a third of the world’s population. However, not all of the aforementioned can be lumped under the same name of Christianity. Today, there are almost 40,000 denominations of Christianity practiced all over the world, each with its own unique beliefs and practices. The 2 most popular denominations today are Roman Catholicism and Protestantism. The purpose of this essay is to examine the historical significance of the two most predominate sects of Christianity.

Christians and Jews alike use the term Messiah, however not always in same way. Stanley E Porter wrote “Christians have equated the word “Messiah” with Jesus,” he anointed one, because they believe that he fulfilled the messianic duties that were a part of the Jewish belief which was in place well before he had walked the earth. However, the Jewish people has not accepted Jesus as being the Messiah, because they believe that the Messiah that is to save them, has yet to come. They view the Messiah as a messenger sent from God, whom will come at the end of time to deliver them from nations and they will glorify Gods name. However, Joseph A. Fitzmyer agrees with Christians; He wrote “The term messianism derived from the Hebrew word Mashiah (“anointed”)
