Bethlehem, Nazereth, and the Character of Jesus: An Examination of the Person & Birth of Jesus Christ

Published on: 19th December, 2023

Examining debates and heresies formed around the question of the personhood of Jesus Christ, Joshua Noel tries to come away with important questions to ask and lessons to learn around the Christmas narrative. We explore the controversy of Jesus' birthplace, the different ideas of how Jesus could have been fully God and fully human, and even whether or not Santa Claus punched a heretic!

.

Why is Nazareth special to Jesus? What happened in Nazareth to Jesus? Where in the Bible is Jesus of Nazareth? Where is the actual birthplace of Jesus? What did Jesus do in Bethlehem? Why was it important to show Jesus came from David's lineage? What is the lineage of Jesus in the Bible? Was Jesus lineage through Judah? Which of the following describe the unique character of Jesus? What were the two main heresies about Jesus in the early church?

.

In this episode, you will be able to:

  • Discover the importance of the birthplace of Jesus
  • Ask why it's important to remember Jesus was of Nazareth
  • Examine key heresies in the attempt to describe who Jesus is
  • Learn about the history of St Nicholas at the council of Nicea

About the Podcast

Dummy for Theology
One dummy's struggle to worship God with his mind
We can worship God with our minds by pondering the things of God, who He is, and how creation relates to its Creator. If you are looking for a podcast with all the answers about God and Theology, this is not the show for you! But, if you are looking for a show that will leave you with more questions than answers about the Divine, so you can struggle to worship God better, then join me in my adventure to love God better with my feeble brain!
