INTRODUCTION

resurrection, humans can reconciled to god. The following report provides the learning skill and
ways to lives life from the story of Jesus. From his thoughts, activities and life an individual can

Jesus as a model of my life
From the story of angry Jesus i have analysed that Jesus was truly believed in god and he
was not want to use the pure and most religious place temple for occupation and business for
people so that he got angry on those people who used temple for their benefit. The angry nature
is not Jesus natural behaviour as other story but he has not wanted to misuse if temple by people
for their business so that he got angered. According to his perception, the temple is a place of
worship and he was believed in the god so deeply. In this situation i have analysed that a anger
is not sinful but people can sinfully react it. I have analysed that Jesus loved the people who
worship of god but he has not loved the people who used the god for their advantage. I have
learned that in this given situation, Jesus was right and true with his role. From this image of
Jesus , i truly learned the lesson of life that we should always take side of truth and honesty.
Furthermore, the place of god for only worship , we should not use it for our personal use.

In the second image of Jesus, I really very disappoint from the ancient times as a method
of killing for slaves or non Roman citizens. Those people have stripped Jesus naked and publicly
hanged because they assumed as criminal and a revolutionary. In this manner, the Jesus image as
depicted could be emotionally torturing and difficult because unforgettable death of him. The
mistreatment of Jesus was about injustice, doubt, fear , pain and degrading death. All this kind of
treatment has really shocked and find unacceptable about the death. According to my point of
view, those people who has given such kind of death to Jesus should not be given such kind of
punishment. In this manner, my heart is very favourable loved for Jesus who learnt me a skill of
living life with self respect and self confidence. This kind of attitude for accepting the
punishment from the Roman citizen has provided me inspiration for living life with full of self
image and strong heart. The follower of Jesus believes that he did this because of he showed
what God is like in a way people can understand. From the Jesus life I have learned the lesson of
simplicity and honesty in my life so as I believe Jesus is as a model of my life.
From this unforgettable movement of Jesus, I analyzed that he was a very peaceful
person as he accepted the pain of degrading death from the religious people, thus I have assed
that he have strong heart and fearless soul. From the Jesus crucifixion I have learn two truth that
is god hates sin and sin hurts the people he loves. Jesus accepted the death because it is universal
in nature which no human being can ignore in this world. I analyzed from Jesus that he hates sin
so much and according to him sin is the vilest , ugliest thing in this universe. Jesus told that all of
us is the beautiful gif of god and there is no greater blessing could ever exist which god gives it
to us so we all should enjoy this gift. From this story of crucifixion I have founded that Jesus was
a great personality and true human being who defined among us that all of us are gift of god so
we all should lives will love, blessing, collaboration and honestly with each other. We should
loves our enemies rather than get revenge from them. I believes that Jesus is as a model of my
life because I have learned honesty, simplicity, truthiness, love and collaboration skill from him.
