How Jesus The Faithful Jew became The Christ of  Christian Faith

Jesus was born a Jew and died a Jew. He taught the religion of his ancestors and lived in accordance with Jewish law. So How did this mortal man, executed by the Romans as “King of the Jews”, become Jesus Christ - Son of God, The second person of the triune Godhead, the Holy Trinity? In this seminar we will explore how the Jesus of history became the Christ of Christian faith.
