Jesus Metaphysics

Metaphysics-- is a type of philosophy or study that uses broad concepts to help define
reality and our understanding of it. ... As such, it is concerned with explaining the
features of reality that exist beyond the physical world and our immediate senses.

A philosophy of discovering hidden, gnostic, inordinary knowledge by seeking the cause


of reality through exploring unanswered questions.

Introduction:
Socrates famously once said, “The unexamined life is not worth living.” And it’s certainly true
that life is more interesting when we take the time to stop and ponder interesting ideas and
questions. Questions like, “How do I’m in the right career? or “What is it that causes me to
continuously give in to the temptation to do something I know is bad for me?”

Going through life with an inquisitive mind is not only more interesting, it’s also biblical.
Proverbs 18:15 says, “An intelligent heart acquires knowledge, and the ear of the wise
seeks knowledge.”

It turns out that God created us to be inquisitive, to seek knowledge, to pursue the truth.

In this report, we will try to discover and understand, the best way possible, and answer the
question, "WHO IS JESUS?"

JESUS WAS A JEW


Jesus was Jewish, born to Mary, wife of Joseph. The Gospels of Matthew and Luke offer
two accounts of his genealogy. Matthew traces Jesus' ancestry to Abraham through
David. Luke traces Jesus' ancestry through Adam to God.

Jesus, also called Jesus Christ, Jesus of Galilee, or Jesus of Nazareth, (born c. 6–4 BCE,
Bethlehem—died c. 30 CE, Jerusalem), religious leader revered in Christianity, one of the
world’s major religions. He is regarded by most Christians as the Incarnation of God.

Ancient Jews usually had only one name, and, when greater specificity was needed, it was
customary to add the father’s name or the place of origin. Thus, in his lifetime Jesus was called
Jesus son of Joseph (Luke 4:22; John 1:45, 6:42), Jesus of Nazareth (Acts 10:38), or Jesus the
Nazarene (Mark 1:24; Luke 24:19). After his death he came to be called Jesus Christ. Christ
was not originally a name but a title derived from the Greek word christos, which
translates the Hebrew term meshiah (Messiah), meaning “the anointed one.” This title
indicates that Jesus’ followers believed him to be the anointed son of King David, whom some
Jews expected to restore the fortunes of Israel.

What does this have to do with Metaphysics?


Everything. Jesus knew the crucial answer to the crucial question of Metaphysics
because he is a Jew. The ultimate truth of Metaphysics, the nature of ultimate reality,
reality at its most real, was not the unknowable mystery to the Jews that it was all to all
the pagan tribes, nations, and religions all around them.

It was because Ultimate Reality, for reasons known only to Himself, had chosen to reveal
Himself to them as to no one else

He told them His name.


And that name was 'I AM.'-
 "I tell you the truth, before Abraham was even born, I Am!" John 8:58
Jewish to Jesus
Remember the phrase, "I Am" is reserved for only God.
John 14:6 Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to
the Father except through me.

For the metaphysical basis for the idea of the rights of man is the idea of man as created
in the image of God.
“You must be holy because I the Lord your God am holy.”
God has no dark side. And that is why we shouldn’t have a dark side either.

THE MATAPHYSICS OF LOVE


“So that you may have fellowship with us, and our fellowship is with the Father and
with His Son Jesus Christ.” (I John1:3)
The “bottom line” in the Incarnation is the religious opportunity of fellowship, or intimacy,
with Ultimate Reality.
Kaya sabi ni John ang aming naririnig at nakikita ay aming ipamamahagi o iparirinig sa iyo nang
sa gayon ay magkaroon kayo ng fellowship to Jesus Christ. Because you can have fellowship
with God kapag tinanggap mo siya. Unang-una diyan is believe that he is our saviour. Money
cannot save us, our work and position cannot save us. Only our faith!

Only love could motivate such madness. Christ’s outstretched arms on the Cross are
God’s answer to our childlike question: “How much do you love me?” “This much!”
How big is that stretch? It is the distance between Heaven and earth that was bridged
by the Incarnation, and it was the distance between Heaven and Hell that was bridged
by our salvation.
Christ is the ultimate revelation of God, or ultimate reality, of the deepest secret of
metaphysics
