Time magazine reported that Jesus People had taken to the streets and were "embracing the most persistent symbol of purity, selflessness, and brotherly love in the history of Western man." Once again, Jesus was more popular than the Beatles.

David Mack, the Jesus Forever Family experiment at Rochdale College and various communal houses (House of Smyrna, House of Emmaus and the House of Life and Love).

 Religious Movements Homepage: Jesus People USA
Onlookers knew these young people by various names: "Jesus Freaks," "Jesus People," and "Street Christians." A large proportion of these youthful evangelists for Jesus were only a short while removed from drugs, "free love," and alienation from "straight society." They spoke of a "Jesus Revolution" and believed that the endtimes were near (Enroth:12).
Although the "Jesus Movement" was not entirely self-conscious as a movement, they felt as though they were participants in a genuine awakening, comparing themselves to the Great Awakening of the eighteenth century (Enroth:15).
Three decades after the Jesus People Movement emerged from the youth counter-culture of the 1960s, Jesus People USA is one of only a few communical groups to survive in tact.

 JESUS-PEOPLE : the Jesus of History
The present interpretation of the "Words" of the historical Jesus is influenced by Western philosophy, the qabalah and (universal) mysticism and should be distinguished from the "premises" of the Jesus Seminar.
Jesus' sayings and parables are often characterised by exaggeration, humour and paradox (extravagance, humour and paradox).
Statements attributed to the risen Jesus are not admissible as evidence for the historical Jesus (the post-historical Jesus).

 Always Jesus People (Jesus People in Kodiak): An Ongoing Revolution -by Timothy Smith
The smell of "weed" was common wherever young people gathered on Kodiak streets, and the town's own homegrown hard-drinking ways brought its own sense of despair (the town had more bars than churches at the time, and when the fleet was in, drunks littered the docks and sidewalks).
You can find the influence of the Jesus People every time you hear a praise chorus with guitars, a Christian song with a beat, or a sermon that is mostly Scripture yet explained in a down-to-earth way.
It is more proper to say, "Who ARE the Jesus People?" Anyone who finds in Him a new cause to follow, a new Kingdom to build, and a new power to introduce others to Him is a true Jesus Person, regardless of their age or their place on the map.

 JESUS-PEOPLE : the Didache
Jesus' teachings summarized the new Christian synthesis of the law (love God and the other like yourself) and stressed renunciation (we have received everything).
Fully incorporated are the notions that Jesus Christ is the Son of God who voluntarily died to free the believers of the devil and who (in the upper room) initiated (instituted) a commemorative ritual to return in sacramental form as his own body and blood.
Neither was their worship of this man called Jesus, who had been nailed to the cross with Roman nails, to the taste of any of the known Roman gods and goddesses, the emperor included (for he was also a god).

 Jesus' General
According the words attributed to Jesus in the Gospel of Matthew, Jesus is every one of those people being brutalized and humiliated by American Christians.
People who spend a lot of time crying out that America is a Christian Nation are spending little if any time proclaiming that torture and secret prisons are incompatible with Christian morality.
If America is a Christian nation, people may be inclined to regard the cross as its symbol, but perhaps the original Latin Cross is the wrong one to choose.

 Paul of Tarsus   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
Related to Paul's interpretation of the resurrection are his concepts of faith, which he explains through his explanation of Abraham, and of righteousness and the forgiveness for sins, using language that Augustine of Hippo later elaborated on in his formulation of original sin.
Maccoby believes that Paul's revelation was thus actually a resolution of his divided self; Paul subsequently fused the mystery religions, Judaism and the Passion of Jesus into an entirely new belief, centered on the death of Jesus as a mystical atoning sacrifice.
While the teachings of Jesus may be the basis of Christian ethics, they view Paul's teachings as the true basis of modern Christian beliefs such as the atoning death of Jesus and the concept of original sin.
