The Multiple Ways To See 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 a religion that can outline its roots to Judaism. This particular religion can trace its origins back to what is currently what the world now calls the Middle East. The main message of it is love and forgiveness, about forgiving and loving each other.

Now, there are so many people worship, and so many reasons that their interpretations of the gospels they believe in all differ. Some people see their founder in many different ways, so many different points of view to look at one single person. This person is put on a pedestal, whether rightly so or not.

Now, the founder of Christianity is often referred to as Christ. The word itself is a title which means the anointed one. This means that Christian believe that their founder, a humbler carpenter, was divine.

Possible the most well known aspect is being the carpenter is as the redeemer. Now, the redeemer was supposedly born as a human, lived as one, and grew up as one, before being baptized and realizing their destiny. As the redeemer, the carpenter was then nailed to a cross, and in doing so, took all the sins of man into themselves and cleansed humanity of its sin.

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 there is another aspect, that of the prophet. In essence, this may be most readily believed. Because the carpenter did wander the desert and did spread about a gospel of love to fellow man, or at the very least, a modicum of decency, of not being a dick to other.

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.
