(dʒiːzəs ) 1. proper noun. Jesus or Jesus Christ is the name of the man who Christians believe was the son of God, and whose teachings are the basis of Christianity.
Jesus is the eternal Son, made flesh of the one true living God. Jesus of Nazareth is the second person of the Holy Trinity in human flesh (Matthew 28:19). John 3:16 summarizes the overall narrative. The Son is “the only-begotten son,” eternally begotten and generated from the Father.
He is the central figure of Christianity, the world's largest religion. Most Christians believe Jesus to be the incarnation of God the Son and the awaited messiah, the Christ that is prophesied in the Hebrew Bible. Virtually all modern scholars of antiquity agree that Jesus existed historically.

Jesus Christ is the reason we exist, He is the purpose and explanation of life. He is the answer to man's desperate need for salvation. Sin separated us from God, but because of His great love for us, he sent His Son Jesus to give His life as a sacrifice to pay the price for our sin.

John writes: “We also know that the Son of God has come and given us understanding so that we may know him who is true. And we are in him who is true — even in his Son Jesus Christ. He is the true God and eternal Life” (1 John 5:20).
Through His actions, and specifically miracles, Jesus taught important lessons about faith, kindness, and God's ability to make great things from our most humble offerings.
That sacrificial lamb had to be human so that His blood would be the atonement for our sins. Make no mistake; Jesus was not half-and-half. He was not simply and enlightened teacher or prophet. He was much more than a humble carpenter.
The name of Jesus is the confidence of a believer. This is all a believer needs in life to succeed. Use it and be victorious in all battles.
"Jesus is Lord" (Greek: Κύριος Ἰησοῦς, Kýrios Iēsoûs) is the shortest credal affirmation found in the New Testament, one of several slightly more elaborate variations. It serves as a statement of faith for the majority of Christians who regard Jesus as both fully man and God.
Jesus is called the "son of God," and followers of Jesus are called, "Christians." As applied to Jesus, the term is a reference to his role as the Messiah, or Christ, the King chosen by God.
For the majority of Christian denominations, the Holy Spirit is the third Person of the Holy Trinity – Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, and is Almighty God. As such he is personal and also fully God, co-equal and co-eternal with God the Father and Son of God.
Christians are monotheistic, i.e., they believe there's only one God, and he created the heavens and the earth. This divine Godhead consists of three parts: the father (God himself), the son (Jesus Christ) and the Holy Spirit.
The Tetragrammaton יהוה is considered one of the seven names of God in Judaism and a form of God's name in Christianity. The consensus among scholars is that the historical vocalization of the Tetragrammaton at the time of the redaction of the Torah (6th century BCE) is most likely Yahweh.
