The Many Interpretations Of The Types Of Christ

By Barbara Collins


Life is all about certain things, certain milestones that a person is expected to hit. First, they are expected to cry out, just to let their parents know they are alive. Then are expected to grow up, go to school, and then graduate college. Then they are supposed to find a job, to find gainful employment. Over the course of all of that, they are supposed to find a romantic partner, preferably someone of an opposite gender. The pairing is then expected to produce at least one child, although two or three are preferred. Then, they are supposed to buy a house, a home where they can put their family so they will be safe and comfortable behind a white picket fence. Society also dictates that the whole family is to trudge to a place of worship at least one time a week, where under the guidance of a reverend or a priest, they will ponder on the types of Christ.

Religion is a set of spiritual beliefs. It involves organized worship. It also involves a set of beliefs that people are generally expected to follow in their daily lives.

Christianity is one of many, many religions that can be adhered to. In fact, it is the largest religion in the world, with around one third of the total population currently living in the world subscribing to it in some capacity or another. It can trace its origins back to what is known as the Middle East.

Now, for a variety of reason people hold religious beliefs. For many of them, it is a simple habit, something they did with their parents whole growing up that stuck with them to adulthood. Others simply hold sincere beliefs in their particular faith of choice.

The carpenter was the founder of Christianity. They were famously born in a manger in Bethlehem, under a bright star. Then the carpenter grew up and started spreading about a message of peace and love, a message that was spread about in the desert.

Which leads to the aspect of being the redeemer. Most religions show a higher power that brings forth thunder and lightning to bring about some retribution to those that commit sins. But the carpenter preached a message of redemption, of a supreme being who will forgive those who commit transgression against others.

There is a belief that the carpenter was a king, born to a prophecy. Born to redeem and lead the world. This is a point of contention with the other Abrahamic religions, as the others see the carpenter as a prophet, a great prophet, but prophet nonetheless.

Then the carpenter is seen also seen as a prophet, and maybe this is the most important part relating to the ministry. The message was always clear, and that message was always love. That was the root of that gospel and the root of that message overall.

As long as there are people, it is likely that there will always be religion, and for good reason. As long as there is a universe, there will always be those who want to look for their place in it, to find some kind of meaning to existence. As long as there is any sort of spiritual belief, there will always be multiple interpretations to it.
