Why Jesus' Ascension and Resurrection Matter to Christians Today
Ava Barnes

Sin and Salvation
This page explores the Christian concepts of sin and salvation, which are crucial to understanding the faith's perspective on humanity's relationship with God and the afterlife.
Salvation in Christianity is closely linked to the concept of sin. It refers to being delivered from sin, saving the soul, and being allowed into heaven. This salvation is made possible through the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ.
Christians have different views on how salvation is achieved:
- Salvation by faith: This view holds that salvation is achieved by faith alone. Followers who accept and follow Jesus' teachings and message will be saved.
- Salvation by works: This perspective, supported by the Book of James, emphasizes that Christians must act on their faith through good deeds.
- Salvation by grace: This view suggests that God loves, forgives, and saves people not because of who they are or what they do, but through His grace.
Definition: Grace in Christian theology refers to the free and unmerited favor of God.
These different interpretations of salvation influence how Christians live their lives and practice their faith.
Highlight: The concept of salvation is central to understanding salvation through faith, works, and grace in Christianity.
The page also touches on the nature of God, describing Him as omniscient , omnipotent , omnipresent , benevolent , and just .
Vocabulary: Omniscient means all-knowing, omnipotent means all-powerful, and omnipresent means present everywhere.
The Christian view of creation is briefly mentioned, stating that God created the world in six days and rested on the seventh. However, Christians may interpret this story either literally or mythically:
- Literal interpretation: The world was created in exactly seven days.
- Mythical interpretation: The seven days are symbolic, and creation may have occurred through processes like the Big Bang and evolution.
Example: A Christian who views the creation story mythically might see the "days" as representing long periods of time rather than literal 24-hour days.
Christianity Beliefs Overview
This page delves into the core beliefs of Christianity, focusing on key concepts such as incarnation, crucifixion, resurrection, and ascension. These beliefs form the foundation of Christian faith and shape how followers understand their relationship with God.
Vocabulary: Incarnation refers to God becoming flesh in human form. Crucifixion is the execution and death of Jesus on the cross. Resurrection means being raised from the dead. Ascension is Jesus returning to the Father in heaven.
The resurrection of Jesus is a central tenet of Christianity. Christians believe that God raised Jesus from the dead following his crucifixion, which was meant to forgive everyone's sins. This event has significant implications for modern Christians:
- It proves Jesus is the Christ, providing a stronger reason to follow God.
- It demonstrates that sins are forgiven and that death has been defeated.
Highlight: The resurrection influences Christians by strengthening their faith and offering hope for eternal life.
The crucifixion of Jesus is equally important in Christian theology. Christians believe Jesus had to die to atone for people's sins and reconcile humanity's relationship with God. This belief influences Christians today by:
- Reinforcing the idea that God will always forgive.
- Inspiring prayers to Jesus.
Quote: "For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son" - This quote emphasizes God's benevolence and the offer of eternal life.
The ascension of Jesus is interpreted in different ways by Christians:
- Literal interpretation: Jesus' whole body returned to heaven.
- Symbolic interpretation: Only Jesus' spirit ascended.
These interpretations influence Christians by demonstrating God's omnipotence and suggesting that Jesus lives forever.
Example: The ascension might inspire Christians to strive for spiritual growth and to look forward to eternal life with God.

The app is very easy to use and well designed. I have found everything I was looking for so far and have been able to learn a lot from the presentations! I will definitely use the app for a class assignment! And of course it also helps a lot as an inspiration.

This app is really great. There are so many study notes and help [...]. My problem subject is French, for example, and the app has so many options for help. Thanks to this app, I have improved my French. I would recommend it to anyone.

Wow, I am really amazed. I just tried the app because I've seen it advertised many times and was absolutely stunned. This app is THE HELP you want for school and above all, it offers so many things, such as workouts and fact sheets, which have been VERY helpful to me personally.

I think it’s very much worth it and you’ll end up using it a lot once you get the hang of it and even after looking at others notes you can still ask your Artificial intelligence buddy the question and ask to simplify it if you still don’t get it!!! In the end I think it’s worth it 😊👍 ⚠️Also DID I MENTION ITS FREEE YOU DON’T HAVE TO PAY FOR ANYTHING AND STILL GET YOUR GRADES IN PERFECTLY❗️❗️⚠️

The app's just great! All I have to do is enter the topic in the search bar and I get the response real fast. I don't have to watch 10 YouTube videos to understand something, so I'm saving my time. Highly recommended!

I found this app a couple years ago and it has only gotten better since then. I really love it because it can help with written questions and photo questions. Also, it can find study guides that other people have made as well as flashcard sets and practice tests. The free version is also amazing for students who might not be able to afford it. Would 100% recommend
