The influence of Jesus on the
history of humanity was so obvious and so great. It was not many people who
question why Jesus was in place almost top the list of this book. In fact, many
people may wonder why Jesus was not in the top spot.
As for Christianity, is presumably not the problem. In the course of the time no doubt this religion has gained more adherents than any other religion as well. It should be emphasized is not about the influence of various religions that is the calculation in this book, but the influence particulars concerning the individual. It is not like Islam, Christianity religion founded not by a but two - Jesus and St. Paul - because it is recognition of the services on the development of religion is to be divided equally between the two men.
Jesus laid the foundations of Christian ethics, including the main idea of spiritual vision and the main idea of the behavior laku.manusia. While Christian theology foundations managed by the St. Paul. Jesus presented a spiritual message while St. Paul added to the form of worship of Jesus. Moreover, St. Paul is the author of the important parts of the New Testament and is an advocate of the first people to embrace the first centuries of Christianity the religion's birth.
Isa countless young age when he "died" (another case with the Buddha or Muhammad), and left behind only a limited number of followers. When Jesus died, his followers simply consists of a small Jewish sect. Through the writings of the new St. Paul and the persistence of tireless preaching, a small sect was transformed into a dynamic force and a larger movement, composed of both Jews and non. From there, eventually, grew into one of the world's great religions.
As a result of the things that some people think St. Paul was rather more decent Isa regarded as the founder of Christianity, because it's place in the list order this book should be higher than Jesus! Though it is difficult to imagine what form of Christianity without St. Paul, but the opposite is also very clear: without Jesus, of Christianity would not exist at all.
Instead, it seems not unreasonable consider Isa held responsible for any circumstances such as assessment of the Christian churches and individuals adherents of Christianity and then, especially since Jesus himself did not agree with such attitudes. Among them-for example, a religious war between Christian schools of thought, and the hunt cruel slaughter of the Jews-a contradiction with the attitudes and teachings of Jesus. It was considered unreasonable that the action was approved by Isa.
In addition, even though modern science was first grown in the countries of Western Europe embraces Christian but it is not taxable if it is deemed the responsibility of Isa. Naturally no one among the Christian leaders interpret the teachings of Jesus as a call to conduct a scientific investigation of the world in a physical sense. The opposite is true: flock bondongnya Roman society embrace of Christianity resulted in the decline of both the common base of technology and the general level of interest in science.
That science happens to grow in Europe is actually an indication of a culture passed down through the generations in harmony with the scientific mind. These have nothing to do with the teachings of Jesus, but thanks to the influence of Greek rationalism is clearly reflected in the works of Aristotle and Euclid. It is worth noting the emergence of modern science is not in the glory-glory and sanctity of the Christian ecclesiastical authority but at the start menyingsingnya renaissance, the time when Europe is trying to renew the legacy before Jesus.
The story of the life of Jesus, if it is associated with the New Testament must have been familiar to the readers, because it can be boring if chewed again. But, there are also aspects that are worth noting. First, most information we get about the life of Jesus is the gift of the frivolous, uncertain maze. In fact we do not know who his real name. It is probable that his real name Yehoshua, a common name of the Jews (the English called Joshua). And year of birth was not certain, although the year 6 BC, can be used as a handle.
Even in his death was that it should be clearly known by his followers, is also unclear to this day. Jesus himself left no writings at all, so really all about fairy life holding on to an explanation of the New Testament.
Unfortunately, the teachings of Jesus contradict each other in many subjects. Matthew and Luke present a completely different version of the final words spoken by Jesus. Both versions at first glance appear to be from direct quotations from the Old Testament.
Surely not a coincidence goods Isa capable mcngutip of the Old Testament. For, although Jesus Christian priest, he himself is actually a devout Jew. It has often been pointed out that Jesus was in many ways very similar to the prophets of the Old Testament and he was deeply affected by them. Like the prophets, Jesus has the charm of extraordinary personality who left an indelible impression so deep and see him. Isa has a power of charisma in the sense that real, really is.
Differ greatly with Muhammad who hold religious and political power on the one hand, Jesus did not yunya political influence during his lifetime or in the next century. (The man did have an indirect influence political developments in the long run). Jesus spread the influence entirely within the scope of ethics and a spiritual leader.
If only Jesus relics rnata as leaders in quality spirituaI, of course, right when people question the extent to which the idea of spiritual influence the world. One of the central teachings of Jesus, of course, the Golden Rule. Now, the Golden Rule is accepted by many people, whether he was Christian or not as the moral standards of behavior. We can not always act on the basis of that standard, but at least we try to scour the rails. If Jesus really is the first formulation of standards and guidelines that have been accepted as almost a universal principle, we can be sure he is worthy of the first order was placed on this list.
But, the fact that its name suggests, the Golden Rule is in fact already become a benchmark that so grip Judaism, far sebetum Jesus was born. Reverend Hillel, the Jewish leader who lived a century before the Christian era openly say that the Golden Rule is the main criterion of Judaism.
It is not only known to the Western world but also the East. Chinese philosopher Confucius-Cu has been proposed this idea in the year 500 BC. As well as the words contained in the Mahabharata, an ancient Hindu poetry. So, the fact shows that the philosophy embodied in the Golden Rule is accepted by virtually every major religious group.
Does this mean that Jesus had no original ideas of ethics? Not so! View high quality and very bright on offer in Matthew 5:43-44:
You hear what is being said that you should love your neighbor and hate your enemy. But I tell you, have mercy on those who curse you, do good to them that hate you, pray for those who mistreat you and vengeful.
And the previous sentence reads "... do not fight crime. If they slap your right cheek, left cheek as well give it."
Now, this opinion is not part of Judaism at the time of Jesus nor the handle so the other religions. It can be ascertained is ever heard. If this idea is widely held, I did not hesitate nor waver in the slightest put Jesus first in the list.
But, the reality show idea is not widespread fad right. Instead, it is generally not acceptable. Most of the followers of Christianity rnenganggap command "Love your enemies" can only be realized in a perfect world, but can not walk as a guide to behavior in the world we all live today. Generally, teaching is not implemented, and also do not expect others to do so. The children we do not give any such doctrine. The most obvious teachings of Jesus is still a kind of teaching that is fundamentally a group and not through the following suggestions are tested first.
