Jesus Christ


Book Description

Jesus Christ is a well-known, worldwide figure and is synonymous with human salvation. Yet the man himself has largely remained undiscovered. While he means different things to different people, only very few understand his true nature. The Jews see him as their own brother but believe he was a false messiah. The Muslims regard him as a renegade prophet of Yahweh and a messiah without a definite portfolio. Customary Christians, who consider themselves Jesus's only disciples, believe he is the true Messiah, Savior of the world, and head of their church. Author Uche Ephraim Chuku contends that Jesus Christ was, in fact, not a prophet or a Jew, and he was not the founder of Christianity. Jesus Christ: The Way Yet Unknown reveals the true Messiah and his heavenly mission in the world for the benefit of those who truly seek spiritual salvation in his name.
