Although there are a lot of debatable questions it is clear to see that Jesus did claim to be God. Did Jesus Claim to be God Jesus never said in the Bible “I am God”. He did however say in John 10:30 “I and

Jesus Washes the Disciples Feet John 13 (The Message) 1-2 Just before the Passover Feast‚ Jesus knew that the time had come to leave this world to go to the Father.

The Devil by now had Judas‚ son of Simon the Iscariot‚ firmly in his grip‚ all set for the betrayal. 3-6 Jesus knew that the Father had put him in complete charge of everything‚ that he came from God and was on his way back to God

Now after reading this brief insight by Sister Mary‚ I have developed a newfound appreciation for this man because of the hardships he experienced early in his life. To overcome these adversities‚ Pope Benedict relied on his love and friendship with Jesus‚ the Beloved. He sets a great example for us Christians.

saving work of God in his son Jesus Christ. The writers of the four gospels introduced a new literary category into literature. The gospels are not exactly biographies‚ because apart from certain events surrounding Jesus’ birth‚ (Matt. 1-2; Luke 1-2) and one from Jesus’ youth (Luke 2:41-52)‚ they record only the last two or three years of Jesus’ life. Moreover‚ the material included is not written as an objective historical survey of Jesus’ ministry. The gospels present Jesus in such a way that the reader
