The lord of God, Jesus

I have choosin to do Jesus Christ. He was  probably born between 7 and 4 BC/BCE killed between 30 and 34 AD/CE in Jerusalem . Jesus, is the central figure of Christianity. jesus lived a simple life starting out as a shepered to moving up in helping the one less fourtonete then himself. He was thought of as a teacher and a healer. He was baptized by John the Baptist. He was crucified in Jerusalem on the orders of Pontius Pilate.Jesus performed miracles that were signs of God's power, such as giving hungry people food and wine, healing sick people, and making dead people alive again. He also set people free from evil spirits.

Jesus gathered together twelve men, known as the Twelve Apostles, whom he chose and trained to spread his message. He had many other disciples, including many women, but because of Jewish customs, the women disciples could not travel to distant places on their own as teachers. He became angry at what he saw. There were people selling things there, and money lenders who were cheating poor people. Jesus chased away all the people who were selling things. He said the chief priests and scribes had turned the temple into a den of thieves because they were making money from the poor and taking away homes from poor women who had no other way to pay for the temple worship. So when he started this the king got angry at him for taking whats really the kings job so the king ordered the jesus was to be killed. So the king sent the Roman soldiers to kill Jesus by crucifixion; they nailed him to a cross by his arms. This was a common way for the Romans to kill rebels and criminals. Jesus' body was buried in a tomb which belonged to one of his followers. On the day after the Sabbath, early in the morning, women came to wash the body and treat it with spice and perfumed oil. But the Gospels say that the body of Jesus was gone, and an angel sat by the tomb and said "He is risen from the dead!"
