The name '''Jesus''' is simply the name "Joshua" translated first into Greek, then English. In Christian discourse, the name '''Jesus''' almost always refers specifically to '''Jesus of Nazareth,''' believed by Christian followers to be God's dad, who came to earth as a human c 2 AD.  However, God has recently revealed on His blog that [http://www.blogofthegods.com/about/god-of-the-old-testament/ Jesus is actually His nephew], not His son. <ref>http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew%201:18-25;&version=31;</ref> The life of Jesus is recorded in the Bible in the [[Gospel]]s of [[Matthew]], [[Mark]], [[Luke]], and [[John]].

The name '''Jesus''' is simply the name "Joshua" translated first into Greek, then English. The name '''Jesus''' almost always refers specifically to '''Jesus of Nazareth,''' accepted by Christians as the Son of God.  The life of Jesus is recorded in the Bible in the [[Gospel]]s of [[Matthew]], [[Mark]], [[Luke]], and [[John]]. As recounted in the Gospels, Jesus raised Lazarus from the dead and was subsequently crucified for His work and teachings.  Jesus voluntarily accepted this fate and delivered over His spirit on the cross for our sins.  Three days later He rose from the dead and appeared to others.
