Matt 1:18-23
Now the birth of Jesus Christ was as follows: After His mother Mary was betrothed to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Spirit. 19 Then Joseph her husband, being a just man, and not wanting to make her a public example, was minded to put her away secretly. 20 But while he thought about these things, behold, an angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, "Joseph, son of David, do not be afraid to take to you Mary your wife, for that which is conceived in her is of the Holy Spirit. 21 And she will bring forth a Son, and you shall call His name JESUS, for He will save His people from their sins."
22 So all this was done that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying: 23 "Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and bear a Son, and they shall call His name Immanuel," which is translated, "God with us."
NKJV
John 11:38-44
38 Lazarus Raised from the Dead
Then Jesus , again groaning in Himself, came to the tomb. It was a cave, and a stone lay against it. 39 Jesus said, "Take away the stone."
Martha, the sister of him who was dead, said to Him, "Lord, by this time there is a stench, for he has been dead four days."
40 Jesus said to her, "Did I not say to you that if you would believe you would see the glory of God?" 41 Then they took away the stone from the place where the dead man was lying. And Jesus lifted up His eyes and said, "Father, I thank You that You have heard Me. 42 And I know that You always hear Me, but because of the people who are standing by I said this, that they may believe that You sent Me." 43 Now when He had said these things, He cried with a loud voice, "Lazarus, come forth!" 44 And he who had died came out bound hand and foot with graveclothes, and his face was wrapped with a cloth. Jesus said to them, "Loose him, and let him go."
NKJV
1 Cor 15:3-5

John 21:25
25 And there are also many other things that Jesus did, which if they were written one by one, I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that would be written. Amen.

Here is a man who was born in an obscure village, the child of a peasant woman. He grew up in another village. He worked in a carpenter shop until He was thirty. Then for three years He was an itinerant preacher.
He never owned a home. He never wrote a book. He never held an office. He never had a family. He never went to college. He never put His foot inside a big city. He never traveled two hundred miles from the place He was born. He never did one of the things that usually accompany greatness. He had no credentials but Himself...
While still a young man, the tide of popular opinion turned against him. His friends ran away. One of them denied Him. He was turned over to His enemies. He went through the mockery of a trial. He was nailed upon a cross between two thieves. While He was dying His executioners gambled for the only piece of property He had on earth – His coat. When He was dead, He was laid in a borrowed grave through the pity of a friend.
Nineteen long centuries have come and gone, and today He is a centerpiece of the human race and leader of the column of progress.
I am far within the mark when I say that all the armies that ever marched, all the navies that were ever built; all the parliaments that ever sat and all the kings that ever reigned, put together, have not affected the life of man upon this earth as powerfully as has that one solitary life.

This Jesus is a divine deity that can be best known when we meet in heaven where he will be on the throne as the sovereighn lord. before his immaculate conception and birth, prophet isaiah, king david and a host of credible men testified of him as the coming mesiah.Though born to a humble background he left nobody in doubt that with focus and obedience to the will of God, one can accomplice the noblest of goals(in his case the salvation of mankind)
for the 33.5 yrs that he lived according to bible records,he taught repentance from sin. he showed so much compassion to as many as came his way not minding their religion,social status nor nativity-several people got healed by his ministry.he was an outstanding miracle worker using no other power but that of God almighty.
though many people misundertood and misjudged him, he knew that he was God the son, the only way to eternal life.he taught and live by the truth not minding whose ox was guged. at a time the religouse leaders could not tolerate his person any further so the crucified him but that it might be known that he has power over dead he rose up on the third day and is seated in heaven with a promise of returning some day to conclude God's plan over mankind.
From his life men have learnt to dear to do the impossible by faith by so achieving spectacular results.people all over the world who believe his teachings have been transformed from evil to good.they have lead a good life, done well in government and champion humanitarian courses rather than following after their evil tendencies such as terrorism, rape, murder and racism to mention but a few.

He was born of the Holy Spirit to the virgin Mary.
During his life, he healed the sick, such as lepers, he made the blind see, the deaf hear, and the lame walk.
He also preached love and truth and taught us to pray (The lords prayer, from the sermon on the mount)
He died because God sent Him for that precise purpose, and he rose from death to new life, which means that we don't have to die for our sins anymore, because Jesus was the ultimate sacrifice. Elaborate on that and you'll be fine

Jesus is our savior. He is our redeemer. This should not come from us, it should come from your own soul. Who is Jesus Christ in your heart and soul? How do you feel about him? Do you live for him or against him? What significance does his life and death and resurection have on you? How do you feel when people spit on him, whip him and crucify him today with their woords and actions? What is your personal relationship with Christ?
