Do history, science, and reason prove that Jesus was nothing more than a human being with a "messiah complex"? If he was truly God, what does it mean that he "suffered and died to save the world"? In clear, concise, and compelling language, Jesus the Christ presents what the Catholic Church teaches, prays, and believes about the Second Person of the Blessed Trinity. From the writings of the Old Testament to the latest papal documents, it includes: The Jesus of history and the Christ of faith. The answer to: Did Jesus know he was God? The Crucifixion as "sacrifice". Three truths about who Jesus is. Christ's resurrection and you. Your new life in the Holy Spirit. Book jacket.
