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.

    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.…

    For Matthew and Mark, Jesus was the fulfillment of Old Testament. He was the teacher of Israel. However, both differ in the depiction of the teacher. For Mark, Jesus was an authoritative Jewish teacher. His actions and miracles, including calming a storm (Mark 4: 39) to curing the blind (Mark 8: 23) to conquering death (Mark 5: 21), were deliberately showing his power. He was mysterious in his ways and purpose, but on the cross, defined his life through his death as a ransom for the sins of his people.…

    Jesus Christ was born between two and six BCE; His mother, “Mary, was a virgin who was betrothed to Joseph, a carpenter. Christians believe Jesus was born through Immaculate Conception (A&E Networks, 2012).” At the age of 12 Jesus became separated from his parents in Jerusalem and was later found three days later discussing affairs with the elders of Jerusalem (The Gospel of Luke (2:41-52). At the age of 30 Jesus began his ministry after he was baptized by John the Baptist, who declared him to be the son of God. After the baptism, Jesus went into the Judean desert, fasted for 40 days and nights, while being tempted by the devil; once to turn stone to bread, once to cast himself off a mountain where angels would save him, and once to offer him all the kingdoms of the world. All three times Jesus denied the devil by turning him down (A&E Networksl, 2012). Jesus traveled through Galilee and Judea preaching using parables and miracles to explain how the prophecies were being fulfilled and that the kingdom of God was near. Jesus…
