| == Historical-critical view ==
| |
| Jesus of Nazareth (c. 4 BCE – c. 33 CE) preached in Roman-occupied Judea. His message combined imminent apocalyptic expectation with radical social teaching: blessing of the poor, condemnation of wealth ("it is easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle..."), the cleansing of the Temple money-changers, and the Lord's Prayer's "forgive us our debts." He was executed by crucifixion under Pontius Pilate — a Roman punishment for sedition, indicating the political character of his movement.

| Chalcedonian Christianity confesses Jesus as fully God and fully man, crucified dead and risen, the second person of the Trinity.

| == Islamic view ==
| |
| Islam reveres Jesus as a great prophet and Messiah, born miraculously of the Virgin Mary (Qur'an 19), who performed miracles by God's permission and was raised to heaven — but denies the crucifixion-as-death and divine sonship (Qur'an 4:157, 112).

| == Infrared's usage ==
| |
| Haz Al-Din has presented Christ as a figure whose genuine teaching — anti-usury, anti-rich, communitarian — was domesticated by Rome into imperial ideology, and whose recovery is part of the communist appropriation of religious heritage (see [[Communism is Islam]], [[Moses]], [[Abraham]]).
