The death of Jesus is believed to be the beginning of Christianity’s history. Jesus was believed to be born about 2,000 years ago. Some academics believe that Christianity originated with Judaism. This is largely because Jesus was Jewish. Many scholars believe Christianity began as a strong movement in Judaism’s first century C.E. Christianity has a history that dates back at least to Jesus Christ’s death, the First Crusades, as well as early fathers like Tertullian.
Jesus of Nazareth was baptized in the Jordan River and began preaching throughout Israel about God’s future kingdom. The New Testament says that Jesus of Nazareth had twelve followers who helped him in his teaching efforts. Jesus began to heal the sick and serve the needy, as well as performing miracles such expulsions of demons. Jesus died at 33 years old. He was later imprisoned and crucified. But his disciples began to believe God had resurrected Jesus, and humanity was thus saved from its sins. Evans, 2014. Jesus addressed his followers, exhorting them to share the gospel in Israel and abroad. Mark says that it was evident that the first Christians appeared after the death, crucifixion, and resurrection Jesus Christ. The global expansion of Christianity was also secured by Apostle Paul. He was convinced Jesus had rose from the dead and that he was his Savior.
Paul warned against the division of early Christians from Corinth. Paul warned the Corinthian early Christians not to segregate and encouraged them to speak gradually with one voice. Paul believed the cross of Jesus Christ was a symbol for God’s power and authority. According to Kasper (2013), the message from the cross represented the power and authority of God to the early Christians. Paul spoke on behalf of the dead and called the message of Jesus’ death absurd. In the 10th Corinthians’ first verse, you can see an example of Israel’s historical warnings. But, most of them displease God and their remains were scattered over the desert.
Christians of Jewish heritage emerged following the death and resurrection Jesus Christ. The goal of the Jewish Christian movement in Jerusalem was to also revolt against the Roman Empire. Jews were made slaves by the Roman Empire. The hardship caused by the Roman Empire’s brutal rule continued to grow in Jerusalem (Backman 80). After conversion to Christianity, more Jews wanted to get rid of the Romans and return to their homeland. One of the reasons for the crusade to liberate Jerusalem from the Romans was that the Holy Land is not accessible to Christians. (Frankopan (2012) An unknown Muslim faction known as “Seljuk Turks” has gained control over the holy city making it difficult for Jews and Christians to visit.
