He said that in the 30 Christian creeds he went through there is nothing about the life of Jesus within in them. They might mention briefly that he &#8220;lived&#8221;, and yes that he was sinless, but nothing about &#8220;how&#8221; he lived.<\/p>\n<p>He lived a real actual life. Carl says, &#8220;Look at how Jesus actually did things, not just what he said, not just his parables, not just the end game, not that he died and rose again, not just the theology around it, but look look at how he lived, how he interacted, how he questioned the questioner, how he didn&#8217;t answer questions, ..how he dealt with the religious people as opposed to the sinners. How he dealt with his closest disciples..&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Carl talks about a couple of things that he admires in the life of Jesus. He points out how Jesus never seems to mind being interrupted as he is on his way. He walks everywhere and doesn&#8217;t ride there.. He also talks about how jesus taught as he went. He does something. Then he tells the disciples they can do the same thing. Then he does the same thing with them. Then he sends them to do it by themselves.<\/p>\n<p>What are some things you love about the <em>life<\/em> of Jesus?<br \/>\nHas this short video helped you to think a bit differently about the life of Jesus and encourage you in following him?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;What are the top 4 things you love about the life of Jesus?&#8221;, asks Carl Medearis in this youtube video. &#8220;Not what he said or his parables and what he taught..&#8221; This is challenging.
