Jesus Christ
Jesus Christ is the central figure of Christianity, who is believed by Christians to be the Messiah foretold in the Old Testament of the Bible. He is also considered a prophet in Islam. The primary sources of information about Jesus are the Gospels of the New Testament, which were written by followers of Jesus in the first century AD.
Life and teachings[edit | edit source]
Jesus was born in Bethlehem to Mary, a virgin, by a miracle of the Holy Spirit. He was raised in Nazareth by Mary and her husband Joseph, a carpenter. Jesus began his public ministry around the age of 30, preaching a message of love, forgiveness, and adherence to God's commandments. He performed many miracles, including healing the sick, raising the dead, and turning water into wine.
Crucifixion and resurrection[edit | edit source]
Jesus was arrested by the Roman authorities and crucified on a cross. Christians believe that he rose from the dead on the third day after his crucifixion, an event known as the Resurrection. After appearing to his disciples and others over a period of 40 days, he ascended to heaven.
Impact and legacy[edit | edit source]
The teachings and life of Jesus form the basis for Christianity, the world's largest religion. His message of love and forgiveness has had a profound impact on the world, influencing art, culture, philosophy, law, and ethics.
