To read the Gospel According to Christianity, it is necessary to understand that we believe Jesus of Nazareth is the Christ, the Messiah, the Divine Son incarnate. As the Divine Son, who has always existed even before the creation of the world, He was already part of the community of the three divine persons in one God: the person of the Divine Father, the person of the Divine Son, and the person of the Divine Holy Spirit. The Divine Son became incarnate through the work of the Divine Holy Spirit and was conceived by the human person of the Virgin Mary of Nazareth. At 8 days old, He was named Jesus on January 1st of the year zero, according to the extrapolated count of the Gregorian calendar. The incarnate Divine Son was killed, buried, and resurrected from the dead on Sunday, April 3rd of the year 33, according to the extrapolated count of the Gregorian calendar. Christ is the redeemer of humanity, He is the light of the world that dispels the darkness of evil. Christ is the only way to the Divine Father, His words are the truth, and He enables the fullness of life in eternity.
