c. Jesus' teachings made many Romans feel their life had meaning.
Jesus taught that God came into this world to redeem human beings. Jesus taught that he was the Son of God, who was one with the Father and the Spirit, and that true life is found in connection with him. The new life brought by Jesus motivates his people to love others and live according to God's will.
Jesus' friend and apostle John summarized the impact of Jesus' teaching:
- "We proclaim to you the eternal life, which was with the Father and has appeared to us" (1 John 1:2).
- "If we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another" (1 John 1:7).
- "Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God" (1 John 4:7).
