    Jesus is Born

    Jesus is Born
    Jesus was born in a stable to Mary and Joseph. This happened through virgin birth as a result of God impregnating Mary. As a result of this event many prophesies in the Old Testament were fulfilled. Jesus began to teach 12 years after that for the first time. The Christian religion was also founded after this.

    Crucifixion of Jesus

    Crucifixion of Jesus
    Jesus was Crucified by the Romans on the Cross. This happened because the Pharisees disagreed with his teachings. He was betrayed by one of his disciples, who turned him into the Pharisees. As a result of this happening many prophesies in the Old Testament were fulfilled. Also the Christian religion was "proven" true by the defeat of Death.

    Martin Luther protests the Cathlic Church

    Martin Luther protests the Cathlic Church
    Martin Luther posted a list of things that he disagreed with about the Catholic church. He did this because he disagreed with what the Catholic Church is doing. The Catholic church was preventing its members from knowing what they were saying or doing. As a result of this the Protestant church was founded. Today, many Christians are Protestant thanks to Martin Luther.
