Jesus and Mohammad a Comparison
Tracing the lives of Jesus and Mohammed historically
Jesus was born in Bethlehem BCE 4 to Mary who was at that time a virgin. (Living Religions, Sixth Edition, by Mary Pat Fisher. Published by Prentice-Hall. Copyright © 2005 by Pearson Education, Inc.,p 295) (Luke 1:26–38). Jesus was raised in the town of Nazareth in Galilee. Other than a journey to Egypt when he was an infant and a trip to Tyre and Sidon, all of Jesus' life was spent in Israel. Mary and her husband Joseph returned to Nazareth after the death of Herod to avoid living under the rule of Archelaus, Herod's son. Baptized at about age 30 Jesus worked either as a carpenter or as a builder and most likely with his father. (Mark 6:3, Matthew 13:55)
Jesus started his life's mission after the baptism by John the Baptist. A scant three years later the Roman rulers executed him at the request of the Sanhedrin (supreme Jewish court made up of chief priests, elders, and law teachers). Crucified as a criminal he was laid to rest in a borrowed tomb and arose to walk among his followers three days later. (Luke 24) After visiting with his followers and moving around town so the people could see him and recognize him; Jesus ascended to God his Father and charged his followers to "Go unto all the world and preach the Gospel"
His birth is the reference point from which all peoples, Christian and non-Christian count time. Jesus has more followers than any other religion in the world.
