let me explain in my way. it might hurt the christians a lot.
Budha was a prince. he left the comforts of the palace, searched true reasons why we are not contended, satisfied in life. why there is so much sadess in life. what no other men did, budha did. he achieved samadhi, that is he disappeared into god. it is a step above salvation. he taught common people how to lead a righteous life. all that budha taught are what he learned, gained by his own experience.
Jesus on the other hand was merely repeating what is already said before him. most of jesus's teachings are similar to Budha. Budha lived 500 years before Jesus. It is possible that Jesus heard about Budha and liked those teachings and spread those message among he savages in the desert. and a miracle happened, there were people to accept that message. but the disciples convenientsly forgot jesus and his teachings and created the new testament and a church for thier own convenience.
During Budhas life people respected him, the society he lived was receptive of good ideas, doctrines. whereas jesus's lived in a society hostile to him and anything new. precisely for this reason even today christianity is hostile to eastern religions. christianity has forgotten jesus christ. all that remain in christianity is chuch and bible. no life.
Jesus has always been described as son of god. budha on the other hand became a god. now you will ask me how? budha was a dhyani, a great soul. when a person goes beyond salvation, he just disappears and merges into the universal soul. what is universal soul? that is god. this happened with budha.
now you decide it. i explained it. nothing more, nothing less.

Well, therein lies the problem of idol worship. The sculpture of the man with a big stomach and long ears is not Buddha any more than the sculpture of a European-looking man on a cross is Jesus Christ.
Try to get past idol worship and attach yourself to the Word of God revealed by these magnificent Manifestations of God.

JESUS is the God
He is the only one who said "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one can go to Father without through Me"
No one in this world will have a dare to say like this. If Jesus is not truly the God, He will have no right to say like that. But, He is the God's incarnation, so the words are true.
And His resurrection on the 3rd day (today, it's called as Easter day) proves that every word that Jesus said when He was in the earth, is TRUE.
Belive Him, there's no other way to Heaven but Jesus Christ whos was crucified to paf for your sin.

Jehovah-- The Almighty God, the creator of the universe, no beginning and no end, God is love.
Jesus--a mighty god, the only begotten son of God, The Messianic King, King of Kings, The Word, Immanuel, greatest prophet, our savior
Gautama started the buddist religion of psychology telling everyone to reach a state of enlightenment and that is the same thing satan did in the garden of eden..he misled adam and eve telling them if they ate of the fruit that God told them not to touch they would be like God...knowing good and bad..hence...enlightened.

The Buddha did NOT have a big stomach ! Your're thinking of Hotai, the Chinese god of happiness...Many people mistake him for the Buddha, but they are mistaken by those who do not know. The Buddha was very thin. Please research this ! The Buddha is not thought of as a god, but as a teacher.

No one is GOD. Neither Jesus nor Buddha had ever told that they are GOD. These are only the result of overambitious followers.
