Jesus of Nazareths' Legacy

Jesus is the basis of Christianity, one of the world's most influential religions. All of Jesus' teachings, some of his childhood and most of his adulthood are recorded in the New Testament of the bible and shared by people all over the world.

Jesus was born over 2000 years ago in Bethlehem. Jesus Christ is the basis of Christianity. We do not know much about Jesus' childhood but what is known about his life is recorded in the four gospels of the New Testament in the bible. Jesus lived in a Galilean village called Nazareth. Jesus died a humiliating death that was usually reserved for the worst criminals. The Romans called this death on a cross Crucifixion. But it is said that Jesus was resurrected three days after he was laid to rest in a tomb. After 40 days of preaching the gospel Jesus led his 12 disciples to Mont Olivet. There he spoke his final words and then ascended into heaven.

The beginning of Jesus' Ministry is explained in the gospel of John. His first action of Ministry is when he turned water into wine at a wedding. When this happened people started to believe that he was the true Messiah. Jesus traveled all along the Mediterranean Sea, down the River of Jordan, the Sea of Galilee, and the Dead Sea. Through these three years of ministry his 12 disciples joined him to spread the word of Christianity. He traveled by food.
