The Strategies Of Jesus' Discipleship (3 Of 3) Series

Contributed by Joel Santos on Sep 23, 2004

Discipleship was not simply a program through which Jesus ran the disciples. Discipleship was life.

Contributed by Steven W. Satterfield on Mar 21, 2023

From https://zondervanacademic.com/blog/why-are-jesus-genealogies-in-matthew-and-luke-different This post is adapted from the Four Portraits, One Jesus: Jesus’ Birth, Childhood, and Early Ministry, a free online course taught by Dr. Mark Strauss. My notes will be added later.

The birth narratives in both Matthew and Luke help answer the question, “Who is Jesus and where did he come from?” One of the ways each book does this is by recounting Jesus’ genealogy.

Mocking Jesus Of Nazareth

Contributed by Michael Stark on Apr 7, 2012

To the world, Christ and His people appear weak. So the world mocks Him. However, in His weakness, He exhibits His strength.

“The men who were holding Jesus in custody were mocking him as they beat him. They also blindfolded him and kept asking him, ‘Prophesy! Who is it that struck you?’ And they said many other things against him, blaspheming him.” Perhaps you imagine that the soldiers who beat Jesus and mocked Him ...read more
