What was the mission of Jesus christ?

Question

I'M WRITINNG AN ESSAY-I'M A BIT STUMPED AS TO EXACTLY WHAT HIS MISSION WAS ON EARTH! HELP

Answer 1

The Gospels state that Jesus, as Messiah, was sent to "give his life as a ransom for many" and "preach the good news of the Kingdom of God."Over the course of his ministry, Jesus is said to have performed various miracles, including healings, exorcisms, walking on water, turning water into wine, and raising several people, such as Lazarus, from the dead (John 11:1–44).


Judæa and Galilee at the time of JesusThe Gospel of John describes three different passover feasts over the course of Jesus' ministry. This implies that Jesus preached for a period of three years, although some interpretations of the Synoptic Gospels suggest a span of only one year. The focus of his ministry was toward his closest adherents, the Twelve Apostles, though many of his followers were considered disciples. Jesus led what many believe to have been an apocalyptic following. He preached that the end of the current world would come unexpectedly; as such, he called on his followers to be ever alert and faithful. Jesus also taught the necessity of repentance and the danger of damnation (Luke 13:1-5, Luke 12:1-5).

At the height of his ministry, Jesus attracted huge crowds numbering in the thousands, primarily in the areas of Galilee and Perea (in modern-day Israel and Jordan respectively). Some of Jesus' most famous teachings come from the Sermon on the Mount, which contained the Beatitudes and the Lord's Prayer. Jesus often employed parables, such as the Parable of the Prodigal Son, and the Parable of the Sower. His teachings centered around unconditional self-sacrificing God-like love for God and for all people. During his sermons, he preached about service and humility, the forgiveness of sin, faith, turning the other cheek, love for one's enemies as well as friends, and the need to follow the spirit of the law in addition to the letter.

Jesus often met with society's outcasts, such as the publicani (Imperial tax collectors who were despised for extorting money), including the apostle Matthew; when the Pharisees objected to Jesus' meeting with sinners rather than the righteous, Jesus replied that it was the sick who need a physician, not the healthy (Matthew 9:9–13). According to Luke and John, Jesus also made efforts to extend his ministry to the Samaritans, who followed a different form of the Israelite religion. This is reflected in his preaching to the Samaritans of Sychar, resulting in their conversion (John 4:1–42).

Answer 2

Jesus came to earth for three reasons:

1. The most well-known and important reason. In order to give his life as a ransom sacrifice so we can recieve forgiveness for our sins.
2. To leave us a model as to how to live our life in a way that pleases God.
3. To demonstrate what he will do in the future as King of God's kingdom. i.e. performing miracles, such as raising people from the dead. This helps give us faith in the promises regarding what he will do in the future.

Answer 3

His mission was to take all mortal sin and receive the ultimate punishment: death. That way He took the original sin of Adam and Eve and absolved mortal man so humanity could start with no taint. By taking sin away, he showed us the ultimate power: Love. We are to spread His gospel of Love to all, for we are all God's perfect children now.

Answer 4

man you just opened yourself up to a very subjective topic.

Remeber that you asked what HIS mission was. That is to him personally, not what he is remembered as.

I clue you in on what wasn't his mission...to start a religion!

Think from HIS perspective and you'll find answers..

Answer 5

hey try to find the answer below(it has got a inner meaning. so use caution)


The New Testament Gospel of Mark tells the story of the life and mission of Jesus Christ, with particular attention focused on the opposition Jesus faced and his eventual death and resurrection. The following excerpt from the King James Version of the Bible begins with the festival of unleavened bread, part of the Jewish celebration of Passover commemorating the exodus of the Hebrews from Egypt. At this gathering, Jesus shares with his 12 disciples a meal of bread and wine to symbolize his union with his followers. In a ritualized form, this meal has become one of the sacraments or holy rites of the Christian church, known as the Eucharist or the Lord’s Supper.

The Last Supper

Mark 14: 12-26


And the first day of unleavened bread, when they killed the passover, his disciples said unto him, Where wilt thou that we go and prepare that thou mayest eat the passover?


And he sendeth forth two of his disciples, and saith unto them, Go ye into the city, and there shall meet you a man bearing a pitcher of water: follow him.


And wheresoever he shall go in, say ye to the goodman of the house, The Master saith, Where is the guest-chamber, where I shall eat the passover with my disciples?


And he will shew you a large upper room furnished and prepared: there make ready for us.


And his disciples went forth, and came into the city, and found as he had said unto them: and they made ready the passover.


And in the evening he cometh with the twelve.


And as they sat and did eat, Jesus said, Verily I say unto you, One of you which eateth with me shall betray me.


And they began to be sorrowful, and to say unto him one by one, Is it I? and another said, Is it I?


And he answered and said unto them, It is one of the twelve, that dippeth with me in the dish.


The Son of man indeed goeth, as it is written of him: but woe to that man by whom the Son of man is betrayed! good were it for that man if he had never been born.


And as they did eat, Jesus took bread, and blessed, and brake it, and gave to them, and said, Take, eat: this is my body.


And he took the cup, and when he had given thanks, he gave it to them: and they all drank of it.


And he said unto them, This is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many.


Verily I say unto you, I will drink no more of the fruit of the vine, until that day that I drink it new in the kingdom of God.


And when they had sung an hymn, they went out into the mount of Olives.
