Jesus?
Jesus Christ is the self-proclaimed Messiah, and his mission was to follow God's will, and spread the word about God's will. Jesus was the son of a carpenter, and his mother was not married to his father when he was conceived (although the conception was divine according to the bible) so she would have likely been the butt of jokes and scorned. He was born in a manger according to the bible, but research suggests that he was more likely born somewhere else. Early in life he ran away from his parents and was found in the temple talking to the Rabbi's who were amazed that anyone his age could have such wisdom. He grew up and made friends with people that lived on the fringes of society like Mary Magdeline, a prostitute (although this is not certain). He spread Gods word throughout the Middle East, but some of the things he said were considered anti-roman, and the romans thus saw him as a revolutionary (as did many Jews). He was tried and crucified. The person that gave the order to have him crucified asked the Jew whether they would like to have Jesus back alive or have another man, a murderer, back instead. Because the murderer was in Roman prison, he most likely killed a roman, and thus was a rather more successful revolutionary in the view of the crowd, so they took the murderer and let Jesus get crucified. His message of peace lives on today, but with many variations on his true messages.

    He was held responsible for treason and blasphemy. He was viciously beaten up and crucified at Golgotha before suffering on the cross for about 6 hours. The following Sunday, when the loyal Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to his tomb, they were astonished to see that the tomb was empty. The book of Matthew explains the resurrection of Jesus, "The angel said to the women, do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified. He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay." (Matthew…

    Over the last seventeen centuries, Christianity has focused on Jesus as the Messiah, the Savior of us all, who was born to save us, and died cruelly on the cross to save us. There is another interpretation of the meaning of his life as well. . In addition, it has been widely believed in organized Christianity that Jesus' death on the cross was ordained by God as a means of saving humankind, but this belief only grew through the teachings of Paul. Too many today, Jesus is seen as a prophet, from the long line of Jewish prophets, going back to Samuel in King David's time.…
