who does Jewish and other faiths apart form Christians say Jesus Christ is?

Answer 1

The Jewish faith, as a religion does not mention him. People often pay lip service and say he was a great rabbi (teacher), knowing that honestly is just said to be nice.
Assuming he existed, and I would guess he likely did, Jews do not really consider him at all. They might have, had his followers followed the basic laws of living, i.e. diet (no pork), the ritual of circumcising, etc.
In fact the first Christians were Jews, or non-Jews that converted to Judaism first and then to Christianity. The Paul, I am not sure, said the old law had been replaced by the new law, and that ended any chance many Jews would become Christian.
It is interesting to note that many of the old laws proved to be right, and some say that was why they were made law, but consider, no other religion at the time of Jesus had these laws. People just ate what they ate. How did the Jews know what was the better way to eat foods? (Not mixing dairy with meat).

Answer 2

Jesus came from a family of Rabbis which had previously been the leading family in the Jewish hierarchy, the family of David. By the time of the New Testament The Davids had been deposed by the Herods but were still held in respect by a lot of Jews because the Herods were not popular. Their support of the Roman annexation didn't help much either. This helps to explain Jesus's access to the priests of the temple and the easy way He could get people to take Him seriously ( Apart from divine influence if you are a Christian )!

Jesus's split from the mainstream Jewish opinion was, in what Christians regard as the defining difference from Judaism, that anyone could join if they accepted his ministry.

To Moslems Jesus in one of the most important prophets and is respected by them. One thing that makes this believable is that Jesus never claimed himself to be the son of God. All that was said by other people or by God himself if you believe the scene with John The Baptist and the voice from the heavens. Even some Christians think that it may be an event embellished after Jesus's death.

Answer 3

The Muslims believe that Jesus was the only prophet that ascended to heaven in a bodily form and that for that reason he will one day return. At the very big mosque in Damascus there is a tower and we were told that Jesus ascended to heaven through that tower

Answer 4

Jesus plays no part in Judaism.
Islam regards Jesus as a prophet.

Answer 5

Mormons see him as the captain of a magic submarine that he used to come to America 2000 years ago to visit the indians. That makes sense.

Answer 6

The Qur'an tells us a lot of wonderful things about Jesus. As a result, believers in the Qur'an love Jesus, honour him, and believe in him. In fact, no Muslim can be a Muslim unless he or she believes in Jesus, on whom be peace.

The Qur'an says that Jesus was born of a virgin, that he spoke while he was still only a baby, that he healed the blind and the leper by God's leave, and that he raised the dead by God's leave.

What then is the significance of these miracles? First, the virgin birth, God demonstrates his power to create in every way. God created everyone we know from a man and a woman. But how about Adam, on whom be peace? God created him from neither a man nor a woman. And Eve from only a man, but not a woman. And, finally, to complete the picture, God created Jesus from a woman, but not a man.

What about the other miracles? These were to show that Jesus was not acting on his own behalf, but that he was backed by God. The Qur'an specifies that these miracles were performed by God's leave. This may be compared to the Book of Acts in the Bible, chapter 2, verse 22, where it says that the miracles were done by God to show that he approved of Jesus. Also, note that Jesus himself is recorded in the Gospel of John to have said, "I can do nothing of my own authority" (5:30). The miracles, therefore, were done not by his own authority, but by God's authority.

What did Jesus teach? The Qur'an tells us that Jesus came to teach the same basic message which was taught by previous prophets from God—that we must shun every false god and worship only the one true God. Jesus taught that he is the servant and messenger of that one true God, the God of Abraham. These Qur’anic teachings can be compared with the Bible (Mark 10:18; Matthew 26:39; John 14:28, 17:3, and 20:17) where Jesus teaches that the one he worshipped is the only true God. See also Matthew 12:18; Acts 3:13, and 4:27 where we find that his disciples knew him as Servant of God.

The Qur'an tells us that some of the Israelites rejected Jesus, and conspired to kill him, but Allah (God) rescued Jesus and raised him to Himself. Allah will cause Jesus to descend again, at which time Jesus will confirm his true teachings and everyone will believe in him as he is and as the Qur'an teaches about him.

Jesus is the Messiah. He is a word from Allah, and a spirit from Him. He is honoured in this world and in the hereafter, and he is one of those brought nearest to Allah.

Jesus was a man who spoke the truth which he heard from God. This can be compared with the Gospel According to John where Jesus says to the Israelites: "You are determined to kill me, a man who has told you the truth that I heard from God" (John 8:40).

Answer 7

Muslims acknowledge him as a prophet, but lesser than Mohammed, and certainly do not see him as the Son of God.

Answer 8

Judaism holds that Jesus was, at most, just another rabbi; a man, and nothing more.

Answer 9

Most of them call him a "good man" or a prophet.
