There are three great monotheistic religions in the world today and there is one person separating these three giants, JESUS. To most Christians, he is the Lord and Savior of the world. He is the God in the flesh, who came to this earth to show his love for mankind by taking on the sin of the world. To most Jews, he is a false Messiah and a false prophet. For the Muslim, Jesus falls in between these two extremes. To Muslims, he is neither God, nor a false prophet. To the Muslim, Jesus is a mighty messenger and servant of God. Muslims believe that Jesus was the Messiah that the Jews have awaited and whom they still await.
Because of Jews perspective of Jesus, they reject his teachings and they look for the "true" Messiah to come. Because of Christians understanding of Jesus, their every want and need is met through the belief in Jesus. As God incarnate, he is the ultimate path to Heaven. The Muslim considers Jesus to be one prophet in the long line of prophets and because he was the final prophet to the Jewish people, Muslim maintain that another prophet was sent after him, who would by a prophet for the whole of mankind.
Jews make up about 13 million people in the world today. 1.8 billion people on earth are Muslims and 2.1 billion people are Christian. Isn't it a shame that so many people's paths diverge from one point. There are 6.8 billion people on earth. If these three groups could get together and come to an agreement on this one issue, 4 in every 7 people on earth would share a common path and a common goal. I have written two books which address the nature, the message and the life of Jesus and I have written another book discussing the beliefs of those who adhere to the principles of Judaism taught in the Jewish Torah. These three books can help explain why Muslims, Jews and Christians believe as they do. These books also attempt to rectify these three perspectives and formulate a conclusion and an answer to the question, Who Is Jesus?
