Who Is Jesus?

Some claim He's a great teacher. Others think He's a prophet. Some dismiss Him as a liar or madman. Millions know Him as Savior and Lord.

The Bible tells us Jesus was born to a virgin, lived a sinless life, taught throughout Palestine for about three years, was crucified and rose back to life three days after His death. More than 500 people saw Him alive after this miraculous event, according to the Bible.

Hundreds of years before Jesus' birth, prophets predicted His coming. The Old Testament, written by many people over 1,500 years, contains more than 300 such prophecies. All these details came true, including Jesus' miraculous birth, His sinless life, His many miracles, His death and His resurrection.

By His own account, Jesus claimed He had the power to forgive sins, cast out demons and determine people's eternal destiny. He even declared He was God, which so angered the religious and political leaders of the time they had Him crucified. Jesus was buried, and three days later, He rose from the dead.

Through His crucifixion, Jesus paid the penalty of sin in full, and made it possible for us to enter into intimate fellowship with God. There is only one way to God, and that is through Jesus Christ.
