The ministry of Jesus, according to the account of the Gospels, falls into a pattern of sectarian preachers with devoted disciples. After being baptized by John the Baptist, Jesus preached for a period of one to three years in the early 1st century AD. Jesus' method of teaching involved parables, metaphor, allegory, sayings, proverbs, and a small number of direct sermons such as the Sermon on the Mount. His ministry was ended by his execution at the hands of the Roman authorities in Jerusalem. His surviving disciples then followed the Great Commission to spread the teachings of Jesus to "all nations".
The First Century was the century that lasted from 1 to 100 according to the Julian calendar. It is often written as the First Century AD or First Century CE to distinguish it from the First Century BC (or BCE) which preceded it. The First Century is considered part of the Classical era, epoch, or historical period.
During this period Europe, North Africa and the Near East fell under increasing domination by the Roman Empire, which continued expanding, most notably conquering Britain under the emperor Claudius (43). The reforms introduced by Augustus during his long reign stabilized the empire after the turmoil of the previous century's civil wars. Later in the century the Julio-Claudian dynasty, which had been founded by Augustus, came to an end with the suicide of Nero in 68. There followed the famous Year of Four Emperors, a brief period of civil war and instability, which was finally brought to an end by Vespasian, ninth Roman emperor, and founder of the Flavian dynasty. The Roman Empire generally experienced a period of prosperity and dominance in this period and the First Century is remembered as part of the Empire's golden age.

What It Was Like Being An Early Christian In The Roman Empire
Imagine a world without Christianity: It’s next to impossible, right? But everything needs to start at some time, and for Christianity, that was during Roman rule, an era of history synonymous with bloodlust, human suffering, and gladiatorial games. Not the most expected moment for a religion that emphasizes “love thy neighbor.”
Being an early believer wasn't just a matter of talking theology and spreading love — it also meant convincing people that their long-held belief system was wrong. And within the Roman Empire, that could lead to a very horrible death. Here’s what it was like being an early Christian in the Roman Empire.

Fun facts:
-Budget: about $15. Maybe $15.32.
-Yes that's real wine. No, I didn't/don't drink it. Any respectable Greek girl in my family always has red wine, lemons, olive oil, garlic, and feta on hand for cooking.
-Yes I know the wine levels are inconsistent. I must live up to my mediocre satire name.
-Yes, that is a curtain on my head.
-Yes, I love the Church and my fellow brothers and sisters in Christ. I think we need some perspective though.
-No, I don't think all Christians are like this. But this is most likely the type of 'cultural Christian' we would run into today.
-No I don't hate Joel Osteen... But he probably needs to meet a first-century Christian.
-No, he wasn't the only preacher I quoted directly in this. Most of what I say is complied from about four different preachers! They all need to meet a first-century Christian.
-Kudos and a high five if you get the coffee cup cameo and the running joke with it throughout the video ☕️😎
Credit: I got this idea from a video that had a similar idea about women in different times in history having conversations and I thought... okay... yeah... there's a lesson here in this for the Church.

Imagine a world without Christianity: It’s next to impossible, right? But everything needs to start at some time, and for Christianity, that was during Roman rule, an era of history synonymous with bloodlust, human suffering, and gladiatorial games. Not the most expected moment for a religion that emphasizes “love thy neighbor.”
Being an early believer wasn't just a matter of talking theology and spreading love — it also meant convincing people that their long-held belief system was wrong. And within the Roman Empire, that could lead to a very horrible death. Here’s what it was like being an early Christian in the Roman Empire.

The ministry of Jesus, according to the account of the Gospels, falls into a pattern of sectarian preachers with devoted disciples. After being baptized by John the Baptist, Jesus preached for a period of one to three years in the early 1st century AD. Jesus' method of teaching involved parables, metaphor, allegory, sayings, proverbs, and a small number of direct sermons such as the Sermon on the Mount. His ministry was ended by his execution at the hands of the Roman authorities in Jerusalem. His surviving disciples then followed the Great Commission to spread the teachings of Jesus to "all nations".
