There are many views about Jesus. Here are some of them:
- Most Christians believe that Jesus was the Son of God, and is one with God, as the second person of the Holy Trinity
- A minority of Christians say that he was the Son of God, but reject the notion of the Holy Trinity
- Some Christians accept that Jesus did not really perform all the miracles attributed to him
- Muslims think that Jesus was a great prophet who was given the power to perform miracles, but that he was not the Son of God
- Jews believe that Jesus was a great preacher but not divine, nor even a prophet
- Many others believe that Jesus was a wandering preacher, whose story grew in the telling, until the gospels presented him as someone he was not
- Some doubt whether Jesus ever existed as a real, historical person
- Some see Jesus as the Teacher of Righteousness spoken of in the Dead Sea Scrolls. They believe that the Teacher of Righteousness lived more than a hundred years BCE, and that the story of Jesus of Nazareth grew out of this legend.
