Jesus/God IS:
Book of Matthew: 1-4
Trinity and Mary brought to earth
Mary Mother in flesh
Mary pregnant by Holy Spirit
The Father sends the Holy Spirit to Mary
The Holy Spirit is described as the one who sanctifies and fecundates Mary's womb, enabling her to conceive the eternal Son of the Father
Messiah
Will save his people from their sins
God with us
King of the Jews
Should be worshipped
Shepherd of his people
Give him gifts
People seek to kill him from infancy on
Called a Nazarene
Childhood silent
Jesus is Lord
He brings the kingdom of heaven
Calls to flee from wrath to come
Calls to Produce fruit consistent with repentance
Calls to not be presumptuous of standing with God
Tells that non fruit bearing will be cut and burned
He baptizes with Holy Spirit and fire
He will gather wheat but burn chaff
Baptized to fulfill righteousness
Spirit on him
God’s beloved son in whom he is pleased
Led by Spirit into wilderness for temptation by Devil
Even though weak in flesh he combats the liar with the word of God (hunger, safety, power)
Eat only the Word of God
Trust the Almighty
Worship and Serve God alone
He fulfills all commandments (all prescriptions of law on mankind without sin) of humanity so as to be the perfect human sacrifice
Preach repentance and the arrival of the kingdom
Calls to follow him
Fishers of people
Teaching, proclaiming gospel of kingdom, healing sickness and disease, and exorcism
