 Most religions believe that Jesus Christ is the son of God.  Jesus Christ was sent to Earth to save humanity.  To this day, people still follow His teachings. “Yes, God so loved the world that he gave his only Son that whoever believes in him may not be lost, but may have eternal life.” - John 3:16

 Jesus Christ had many followers when He was alive and the main ones were the twelve disciples.  Even though Jesus Christ is not physically here He still has followers like all the religions that worship Him (the Christians, Baptist, Catholics, etc.) “This is your calling: remember Christ who suffered for you, leaving you an example so that you may follow in his way.” - 1 Peter 2:21

 Jesus Christ was a man that lead by example.  He was a man of word that whatever He said He would do it. There was never a lie said by Him.  His faith was so strong and powerful that He had the gift of healing and was able to do miracles.

 It has been about 1990 years ago that Jesus Christ died and to this day He is still being worshipped and followed by different religions.  Jesus Christ has been an unbeatable leader that no other leader has had so many followers for “infinity” years.  He is a worldwide leader that people all over the world still follow Him today and adore Him. “I have told you all this, so that in me you may have peace. You will have trouble in the world; but courage! I have overcome the world.” -John 16:33

Positive Traits! “Do others as you would have others do you.” -Luke 6:31  Jesus Christ had all the six pillars of character which made Him a great leader!  He is trustworthy for the reason that one can always count on Him in the good or in the bad. He most certainly can guide anyone to the solution of their problem.  Every time one prays to Him, He always has an answer, one just needs to learn how to hear His voice.  The main positive trait that is obvious in Jesus Christ is His care and love for each one of us. No matter how dumb of an action one commits He is willing to forget and forgive one for that. He has such a big heart that He even sacrificed himself for us even though we still didn’t exist.

 Jesus Christ has no negative traits.  He is the only person who is perfect. “Our high priest is not indifferent to our weaknesses, for he was tempted in every way just as we are, yet without sinning.” - Hebrew 4:15

 Jesus Christ did powerful miracles like healing the blind, converting water into wine, and reliving the dead.  The one thing that Jesus Christ did not have was negative characteristics. Although many people got against Him for the reason that they did not believe that He was the son of God.  Many people also rebelled against Him since they wanted to be more powerful than Him. “I will not inflict on you any of the diseases I brought on the Egypt, for I am the one who heals you.” -Exodus 15:26

 Jesus Christ came from a very humble family.  His father’s name was Joseph, he was such a hard working man who supported his family by working as a carpenter.  His mom, Mary, took well care of Jesus Christ not just because he was her son, but also because she knew what was the purpose of her son’s life.  Jesus Christ had the most united family for the same reason that they had faith in God at all times.

 Jesus Christ’s family showed him that we are all missioners of God.  His background contributed to his mission in life, to die for us sinners.

 Jesus Christ has not lost any power, but He has lost followers for the reason that they fall into temptation.  He has also lost more followers since the Devil is out there wishing the worst for everyone and drags people with him.
