Explanation:
- According to Christian belief, Jesus was a Jewish preacher and rabbi of Nazareth. After his martyrdom, he became a central figure in Christianity and an important figure in several other religions. Muslims regard him as a prophet, a Hindu avatar, and Christians as the Messiah and the Son of God, calling him Jesus Christ.
- Jesus presented his teaching in the form of short allegorical stories, through which he conveyed spiritual lessons through examples from everyday life. Most scholars agree that Jesus was a Jew from Galilee, regarded as a teacher and healer, baptized by John the Baptist and crucified in Jerusalem at the behest of Roman governor Pontius Pilate on charges of conspiracy against the Roman Empire.
- The main sources of information related to Jesus' life and teaching are the four Gospels of the New Testament according to Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. Only a handful of contemporary Bible scholars believe that all ancient scriptures about the life of Jesus are either completely correct or completely incorrect.
- Christians believe that Jesus is the Messiah, whose coming was announced in the Old Testament, which is the basic point of their disagreement with Judaism. Christians overwhelmingly believe that Jesus is the incarnation of God, the Son of God who came to bring salvation and reconciliation with God, who was resurrected after his crucifixion.

The teachings of Jesus are recorded in the New Testament, which consists of the four Gospels, plus the book of Acts and the Epistles (letters to the churches).
The accounts of Jesus' life and direct teachings are found in the Gospels (or "good news" books), which were written by Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. From the standpoint of Christian theology, however, the whole New Testament continues to be the teaching of Jesus, as he gave his apostles authority to write and speak in his name. So, for instance, in one of his epistles, the Apostle Peter wrote, "We did not follow cleverly devised stories when we told you about the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ in power, but we were eyewitnesses of his majesty" (2 Peter 1:16). The apostles firmly believed they were continuing the mission and teaching of Jesus in the world, for Jesus had promised them, "The Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you" (John 14:26).
