Abstract

The question whether Jesus Christ is merely another religious figure is presently considered. In this article Jesus' glory and uniqueness are explained apologetically in relation to religious figures from antiquity to the present. The virgin birth is accepted here as totally different from Hercules’ birth; Jesus’ glorification as Son of God is more than just that of a prophet; the incarnation of Jesus was God becoming human and not an avatar; Jesus’ ascension was not Nirvana. He was the true and only Messiah; He is risen and therefore not just another ancestor. Finally, the truth of the Trinity as confessed in Nicea is reiterated.
