Nobody has changed the world the way Jesus has. People who encounter the risen Christ are totally transformed. Their outlook on life is altered forever. Staying true to their faith, they do not hesitate to face hardship, persecution and even death.

Many devote their lives to serving others, minimizing their own needs and desires.

Social contributions of Jesus Christ

 Jesus never said "give me all" or "give the government all" He said for you to "give all" or "sell all Jesus led by example, not by force. IF you believe in God, you have to believe we were put here for a reason, what do you think that reason is? Each person has to learn this on their own. When you take away a person's choice to do good on his own, you take away their ability to learn what he was put here to learn.

Merits

Every being that lived upon the earth initially had a SPIRIT BODY and that all were born to Heavenly Parents in a PRE MORTAL EXISTENCE Families may be sealed"meaning that they are eternally bound as husbandwife, parents childand that these bonds will continue after death.

The sinless nature of Jesus Christ involves two elements. First, Christ was free of actual sin. Studying the gospels there is no reference to Jesus praying for the forgiveness of sin, nor confessing sin. The assertion is that Jesus did not commit sin, nor could he be proven guilty of sin.
Jesus Christ, the Mediator of humankind, fulfills the three offices of Prophet, Priest, and King. which during the Reformation played a substantial role.

Conviction of sin:- The Holy Spirit acts to convince the unredeemed person both of the sinfulness of their actions, and of their moral standing as sinners before God. Bringing to conversion:- The action of the Holy Spirit is seen as an essential part of the bringing of the person to the Christian faith. The new believer is "born again of the Spirit". Enabling the Christian life:- The Holy Spirit is believed to dwell in the individual believers and enable them to live a righteous and faithful life. As a comforter one who intercedes, or supports or acts as an advocate, particularly in times of trial. Inspiration and interpretation of scripture:- The Holy Spirit both inspires the writing of the scriptures and interprets them to the Christian and/or church Empowerment of his ministry:- The ministry of Jesus following his baptism (in which the Holy Spirit is described in the gospels as "descending on Him like a dove") is conducted in the power and at the direction of the Holy Spirit.

JESUS:-GOD THE FATHER - God is addressed as the father, in part because of his active interest in human affairs, in the way that a father would take an interest in his children who are dependent on him and as a father, he will respond to humanity, his children, acting in their best interests. TEMPTED CHRIST:- He experienced all the frail weaknesses of humanity. Jesus was tempted through hunger and thirst, pain and the love of his friends. Thus, the human weaknesses could engender temptation. The temptations Christ faced focused upon his person and identity as the incarnate Son of God.Christ could be tempted through his sonship. ATTRIBUTES OF JESUS CHRIST:- The communion of attributes Christ divine and human nature existed together with not overriding each other. Christ was not half-God and halfhuman. they acted in complete accord; when one nature acted, so did the other. The natures did not commingle, merge, infuse each other, or replace each other. One was not converted into the other. They remained distinct.

 DEMERITS

Perception based Demerits

Demerits are not of Christ but of the changing generations revaluating the sayings keeping in view the modern world. Relativitism Is a new pervading western society that questions the nature of truth and makes one feel guilty of believing what is believed for centuries. Excusivism- Position that maintains Christ as the savoir of the world and other religions largely as zones of darkness. Inclusivism- To view up holding Christ as the savoir of humanity but also affirming gods saving presence in the wider world and other religions. Restrictivism- restricts hope to people who have put their faith in Jesus Christ in the earth. Pluralism- The position that denies the finality of Jesus Christ and maintains that other religions are equally valid paths to god.
