Line 9 ⟶ 8:
In addition to being the founder of [[Christianity]], and second-'biggest' prophet in [[Islam]], Christians believe that Jesus Christ (from ''Christos'', "annointed", from the Hebrew word ''Messiah'') is no less than the Son of [[God]] as well as being [[God in Human Form|an aspect of God Himself]]. The New Testament of the Christian Bible says He was crucified by Roman procurator Pontius Pilatus after being betrayed by Judas Iscariot (Yehudah of Kerioth/Yehudah the Sicarius), but returned from the dead 3 days later. Muslims dismiss the idea that any human can be the Son of God or an aspect of God, but do believe that Jesus (whose name they translate as Isa) was born of a virgin mother and will someday [[Second Coming|return to Earth]]. They also believe that Jesus did not die on the cross, as God intervened to prevent it, carrying Jesus's physical body to Heaven. [[The Bible|The whole Bible]] [[Your Mileage May Vary|(or for some only the second half, depending on your views)]] is mostly about Him, His life, His sayings, and His deeds ... if you're not [[Judaism|Jewish]]. But then you would not have the Bible, but the ''Tanakh.''
