Jesus is the most important figure in Christianity. Christians believe he is the Son of God who came to Earth over 2,000 years ago to show people God’s love and to save humanity from sin.
The Life and Teachings of Jesus
During his life, Jesus taught lessons about love, kindness, forgiveness, and compassion. He often used parables—simple stories with deeper meanings—to help people understand how God wanted them to live. Jesus also performed miracles, such as healing the sick and even bringing people back to life. He welcomed everyone, especially those who were poor, suffering, or excluded.
The Death and Resurrection of Jesus
In the end, Jesus faced opposition and was crucified—nailed to a cross and killed. Christians believe that his death was a sacrifice to take away the sins of the world. Three days later, they believe he rose from the dead in the event known as the Resurrection. This moment is central to the Christian faith because it shows that death is not the end and gives believers hope of eternal life with God.
Why Jesus Matters Today
Christians see Jesus as their saviour, guide, and role model. His teachings inspire them to live lives of love and service, and his birth, life, death, and resurrection are celebrated as the foundation of their faith.
