what did people in the bible say about jesus?
A lot of people say to me, Why did you kill Christ? I dunno... it was one of those parties, got out of hand, you know. We killed him because he didn't want to become a doctor, that's why we killed him.

 Many modern scholars do not consider the story to be describing a historical event but a pious fiction created by the author of the Gospel of Matthew .

 Some early Christian and Gnostic groups had separate descriptions of the life and teachings of Jesus that are not included in the New Testament . These include the Gospel of Thomas , the Gospel of Peter , and the Apocryphon of James , among many other apocryphal writings . Most scholars consider these much later and less reliable accounts than the canonical gospels .

 In the synoptics , quotations from Jesus are usually in the form of short , pithy sayings ; in John , longer quotations are often given . The vocabulary is also different , and filled with theological import : in John , Jesus does not work " miracles " ( Greek : δῠνάμεις , translit. dynámeis , sing. δύνᾰμῐς , { { | transl | el | dýnamis } } ) , but " signs " ( Greek : σημεῖᾰ , translit. sēmeia , sing. σημεῖον , sēmeion ) which unveil his divine identity . Most scholars consider John not to contain any parables . Rather it contains metaphorical stories or allegories , such as those of the Good Shepherd and of the True Vine , in which each individual element corresponds to a specific person , group , or thing . Some scholars , however , find some such parables as the short story of the childbearing woman ( 16 : 21 ) or the dying grain ( 12 : 24 ) .

 Stories of Jesus ' birth , along with other key events , have so many mythic elements that some scholars have suggested that Jesus himself was a myth . Historians say that the doctrine of Jesus ' virgin birth arose from theological development rather than from historical events . Michael Coogan says that Paul considered Jesus to have been conceived by Joseph . Other scholars take it as significant that the virgin birth is attested by two separate gospels , Matthew and Luke , ( see the criterion of multiple attestation ) .

 Christians believe that Jesus has a " unique significance " in the world . Christian doctrines include the beliefs that Jesus was conceived by the Holy Spirit , was born of a virgin named Mary , performed miracles , founded the Church , died by crucifixion as a sacrifice to achieve atonement , rose from the dead , and ascended into Heaven , whence he will return . Most Christians believe Jesus enables humans to be reconciled to God . The Nicene Creed asserts that Jesus will judge the dead either before or after their bodily resurrection , an event tied to the Second Coming of Jesus in Christian eschatology ; though some believe Jesus 's role as savior has more existential or societal concerns than the afterlife , and a few notable theologians have suggested that Jesus will bring about a universal reconciliation . The great majority of Christians worship Jesus as the incarnation of God the Son , the second of three persons of a Divine Trinity . A minority of Christian denominations reject Trinitarianism , wholly or partly , as non @-@ scriptural .
