God, the Father = Jesus, the Son and Savior = Holy Spirit, our guidance
This is all apart of the Trinity, a concept so big and unbelievable (yet true) that humans cannot wrap there minds around.

Jesus is God, and also referred to as the Son.

God is a tri-unity, seen in 3 equal manifestations-the Father, Son and Spirit-each having differing interaction with man. Like water-it has liquid water, ice and vapor. All 3 are fully water, but with 3 different uses.

In the Hebrew scriptures and in the Old Testament God is often referred to using the plural of the word for God, "Elohim", as in Genesis 1:1 "In the beginning God (Elohim) created the heavens and the earth". This allows for a plurality in the Godhead. Later God says "Let US make man in OUR image..."

There are hundreds of prophecies in the Old Testament that were fulfilled by Jesus Himself or in the circumstances surrounding His birth and death. The odds of this occurring by happenstance are mind-boggling.

Secular historians of the time recorded public sightings of Jesus after His resurrection. how else could he have returned to life, except that He is God?

Several of the Apostles died for their belief that Jesus is God and the promised Messiah. Men do not die so readily for something the do not know to be true.

For Christians like myself, Jesus is God-made-man, the second person of the Holy Trinity, the Son of God. Forgive me if I can't explain it better - I'm still studying and learning.

However, for non-Christians, particularly Jews and Muslims, I think they only view Him as a prophet, or religious leader or teacher/healer. Obviously to acknowledge His divinity is to admit He is God and to surrender to and worship Him, which they obviously will not do, but that's another subject.

Anyway, my first sentence is your answer. God bless.

Jesus came to realise that he was made from little pieces of everything.

Then sent his mind into the past where he found the beginning... then sent his mind into the future, to the end of everything and found the beginning. Then he realised he was part of it all and all was a part of him.

God the father the creator was in him and he in it and all was illuminated... the cycles of life. He realised he was a beautiful creation of purity and truth made for the creation of love.

Jesus was a man, He is God in human form(Immanuel which means God with us), He is God's Son. I know ot seems to contradict but it this is true, its known as the trinity( God in 3 persons)

In Christianity He is G-d.

In Islam He is a prophet.

To Jews He was a rebel.

In rastafarianism, He was a prophet.

Dont think He is significant figure in other religions.

Well, I met him once, and I think he is what we could become. I sometimes feel that something happened a while ago, but I was left behind to puzzle about it. Do you ever remember that feeling you had when you were a fearless kid? Something like that.

Jesus was a man that lived many years ago. That's all.
