Who Is Jesus Christ?

Millions of people every month ask the search engines, "Who is Jesus Christ?" Some wonder if He is just a teacher. Others say He was the Son of God. One way or another, Jesus Christ has had more impact on humankind than any other figure in our history. It behooves us to understand why!

No matter who you think He was - or is, there is nothing ordinary about this man. For thousands of years before His birth, the prophets foretold of His coming. From the circumstances surrounding His birth, to His understanding of scripture as a young boy, His youth stands out among the rest. From His teachings about loving your enemies and not allowing yourself to even think about sin, much less commit it, to his constant inviting, nurturing, and healing people - even small children - no matter who they were, His life and ministry were both exemplary and inspiring.The events surrounding His suffering in Gethsemane and on the cross, followed by his many appearances in resurrected form to hundreds of eyewitnesses are nothing short of miraculous.


So who is Jesus Christ, and what will the answer mean to you and me? This page is my answer to that question.



By The Mouths of All My Holy Prophets


It would be impossible for me to answer the question of who is Jesus Christ without making mention of the many evidences that people knew of His coming thousands of years in advance.


What's in the Bible? Behold, A Virgin Shall Conceive - Read the testimonies of the prophets of the Old Testament concerning the birth of Christ, given thousands of years before He was born.

What's in the Book of Mormon? Many Hundred Years Before His Coming - Read the testimonies of the prophets of the Book of Mormon concerning the birth of Christ, given "many hundred years before his coming".



The Real Story of Christmas


Some of the things that come to mind when we think about who Jesus Christ is are the events surrounding His birth. Was there really a new star in the sky? Was Jesus really born of a virgin? Did Joseph and Mary and the shepherds really see angels? You would expect a life so full of miracles to begin with miracles too. Hear what the prophets and apostles in the scriptures have to say, for their account concerning the coming of the Messiah into this world to be raised up among us is not one of fiction, but testifies of miracles and the power of God that was witnessed by many.

What's in the Bible? Miraculous Conceptions - This is the story of how John the Baptist and Jesus Christ came to be born, how they came to begin their ministry together.

What's in the Book of Mormon? Signs In America - The people in ancient America knew by the signs their prophets had given them that their Savior had been born!


What's in the Bible? Good Tidings of Great Joy - After thousands of years of wondering when the new star would appear in the sky, when the Father would announce the birth of His Son, the holy night finally came. Joseph and Mary traveled to Bethlehem, angels appeared to shepherds, and Jesus Christ, the God of heaven and of earth, was laid in a manger in the form of a baby, wrapped in swaddling clothes.


What's in the Bible? Three Wise Men from The East - By recognizing and following the signs in their time, the Three Wise Men were able to find the young Jesus and honor him as the rightful king of the Jews 



Jesus' Ministry Foretold


I know what it is to walk in darkness and not have the power to make badly needed changes in my life. I also know what it is to have Him who is the Light of the World come and break the rod of my oppressor, and make changes in my heart, in who I am, in who I'm trying to be, as though by fire. Who is Jesus Christ? To me, He has been a Wonderful, badly needed Counsellor! He has helped me fight my personal battles as with fire and with fuel of burning! The prophets of the Old Testament knew for thousands of years that a Messiah would come into the world and minister in power and glory to the souls of all who would hear Him, both during His life, and throughout all history.


What's in the Bible? They that Have Walked in Darkness - coming



The Resurrection of Christ

He is Risen - Read about the events surrounding the resurrection of Christ as testified of by those who knew Him. Read of the surprise, wonder, and great joy as His disciples witnessed their Friend "rise again the third day" and give new meaning to scriptures that had long foretold of His resurrection.
