This trash was sent to me via email from one of the Pastors in my community. I need to give him a good reply. Some ideas will be appreciated.
Quote:Yeshua or Jesus. He chose to be born in poverty with no college degree, little travel, no public office, and executed as a common criminal while still young. Yet 2000 years later, He has had more of an impact on empires, institutions, and the people of Earth than any person who has ever lived. His visit to Earth was described hundreds of years before His birth was minutely detailed by the ancient Hebrew prophets.
Jesus interrupted human history, and the influence of His life soon permeated the Roman Empire, setting the course for future civilisations, their institutions, and billions of lives yet unborn. He claimed to be God in human form. His claim was substantiated by the fulfilment of the prophecies of the coming Messiah. Supernatural power He displayed by the divine authority by which He spoke, and by His resurrection from the dead witnessed by many.
Jesus is distinctively different from all others who are considered to be religious founders. He claimed to be God, and His life, actions, and words proved it. The others never made such a claim. Jesus claimed to be the way. The others suggested a way primarily for ethical living. He personified the summation of all valid ethics ù love. He was resurrected, leaving an empty grave. The others died as humans, and remained dead. He was the greatest and He is returning soon.
