SUMMARY
Looking at the early Christian catechesis, it is necessary to draw on the basic pedagogical principles of Jesus Christ. He as a model of a pedagogue, a teacher and a spiritual model is a prime example of motivation for all other teachers, catechists. The basic factor of teaching in the person of Christ is living faith, accompanied by miracles. In learning and access to people, we see simplicity and personal accessibility, regardless of age and thought. On the basis of the information we have studied, we can point out that any place for catechesis was appropriate for Christ. Even the environment in which he was located gave him the opportunity to pedagogically motivate and, on the basis of the created visible world, to give examples and parables that simply explained what Heaven and Kingdom are. Christ had publicly preached to all who listened to him, but also personally, and he responded to an impulse or a particular question of some man. We have all the basic pedagogical and catechetical ways of Christ with precise quotations from the Holy Scripture.
