Humanity Case Essay

Humanity. Perhaps this is the only word that can explain the unconnected sexual climaxs and goings of the man from Nazareth, call(a)ed saviour. The disconnected Tomb of the Nazarene, aired March 3, on the baring Channel, an amazing piece of documentary. In the city of Jerusalem, in the midst of an flat complex, was found a place of burial. Perhaps the burial place of, bloody shame Magdalene, her son Judah, and two brothers-in-law, Simon and James. Were these the relatives of Jesus the messiah, in the scheme of things the nous seems to be irrelevant.Humanity Although there is great emphasis placed on the Christ, the Messiah. precise few people seem interested at all in Jesus man being. People are offended at the thought that Jesus may have deigned to have been with a woman, much less hook up with to a whore. Yet this is the very story told in Hosea. gods un call into question love of even, maybe most especially, one who would be unfaithful. It seems to me of all of Jesus disciples, Mary is the one who got it. Only an outcast could truly visit the message of Christ. To be offered kindness, when only suffering has come at the give of man, is an indescribable miracle. How Mary must have loved this man, Jesus. The Divine, the Christ. Jesus human beingity is controversial. And I dont know why. If Jesus was non fully human, how could God come to know what it is to be human? To struggle? To be defeated? To know unbridled joy? To be shortsighted as man is and yet still have the ability to hope. How God must love us for that Yes, all have sinned and come short of the triumph of God. Who among us is not aware of their own shortcomings? Everyone I know. To be human is to be all to aware of what we are not. Was that the purpose of Jesus coming? To remind each of us of our all too familiar failures? umteen others are outraged that anyone should question the Divinity of Christ, as though questioning such a thing changes the very nature of God? Hardly. Wh at question could man possibly ask that could be found to be ugly to God? Yet, this question of Divinity versus Humanity, people seem to struggle over. Christ is all or none. Even those who would say Jesus was both human and God, cannot admit that Jesus could have succumbed in his humanity to be human. And what a terrible misrepresentation. All throughout the Bible God is represented as part of humankind. Why would humanity be denied what most Christians believe to be Gods only Son. There is of course, great misrepresentation and misinterpretation about the chronology of the canon. That Jesus divinity was not even declared until three hundred years after his death. By whom? Why man of course? I wonder if God would be pleased with all that the church, not the body, has accomplished? Just recently, I visited a new church and although I liked the people. I was saddened when the pastor started talking about the building fund. Is this what Christianity has been rock-bottom to? Buildi ngs? What of the starving? What of the homeless? What of the person who has not known the kindness of a human touch, due to illness or simple isolation? What of these? Does God not plague us to be in touch with his light, his life, his children? The Lost Tomb of Jesus is a wonderful representation of the possibility that Jesus was all he said he was. A miracle. A grace in disguise. Both human and Divine. Just like the rest of us. A bit of God rests in us all at the heart of Gods highest creation, mankind. Rejoice Awake God is among us sustainment when we thought he was dead Alleluia Jesus is Alive
