1.) Briefly outline your life prior to beginning your ministry?
Besides his birth, the visit by the wise men latter and then at 12 his visit to the temple. One can only assume that being the son of a carpenter he learned that skill and would have worked at that. Also one would have to assume he followed normal customs and traditions of the time
2.) What problems did you see in the world?
Rome occupied the area, taxes were high, there was no real voice of the people in government, there were ritual over action in the church
3.) Why do you the Jews were no longer faithful to god’s covenant?
Most where they were keeping the laws of God, were doing sacrifice in the temple as required. It was the religious leaders who had added many additional rules, customs and traidition. But according to the law, many were following and keeping the Jewish traditions and law.
4.) What do you consider to be your greatest teachings?
Salvation by faith , all other teachings have little substance without salvation
5.) During your lifetime, what did you do to change your world for the better?
The world was not changed, the lifes of some individuals where changed and the suffering of some where made less, but there was no major changes in either the political, economic or social systems.
It was only in his death that the major change, salvation for those that beleived happen
6.)What is it about your life, death and resurrection which still influences people today? How are your teachings still relevant?
People, the evil in the world and in the lives are all the same, the objects one lusts after may have new names, but the rebellion of man is always the same, Man needs forgiveness and salvation as much today, as they did 2000 years ago
