01.4 Explain two Christian teachings about the incarnation. Refer to sacred writings or another source of Christian belief and teaching in your

answer. [5 marks]

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Two Christian teachings about the incarnation are the following.

The idea of incarnation in the New Testament of the Bible teaches Christian followers that God sent his only son, Jesus, to Earth to save his people. This is the most important idea of incarnation, that God, who loves humanity, sent his son to be the example and the teacher to save humans for all their sins, according to Christianity.

Then we have references, for instance, John 1:14, which says that the incarnation of Jesus is the lesson that Jesus is the essence of God made flesh, which menas, God transformed into a human.

That is how Christians understand that Jesus was born and incarnated as a human being for 33 years on life on planet Earth. This is part of the lesson to humans in that Jesus, as a human, could felt and suffer as any human can do.

the crusades are one of the most significant events in the history of europe and the middle east.   they were a series of religious wars carried out by christian crusaders from europe during the timeframe of the middle ages.   beginning in 1095 ce, the crusades saw european knights and noblemen travel to the middle east in an attempt to capture the holy land away from muslim people that had controlled the region for the previous centuries.   the term crusade means ‘cross’.   therefore, the europeans that became crusaders viewed themselves as ‘taking up the cross’.   in fact, many of the crusaders wore crosses on their clothing and armor as they made their pilgrimage to the holy land.
