Jesus Christ, born in 2-6 BCE in Bethlehem, is recognized as the incarnation of God and the founder of Christianity, whose life and teachings are primarily recorded in the New Testament. He performed numerous miracles, including healings and exorcisms, and is believed by Christians to have died for humanity's sins and resurrected after death. Islamic tradition aligns with some aspects of his story, though it diverges on the crucifixion, claiming that Judas was mistaken for Jesus and crucified instead, while Jesus was taken up to heaven.
