Christ in the Protestant faith is also known as Jesus, or Jesus Christ. They view Christ as an image of God, but not actually God Himself. However, He is not a normal human being. He could heal the sick, feed the hungry, and forgive sins. The Virgin Mary gave birth to Jesus at about 3 BC. He was considered a miracle that was sent from God. It is believed that he was sent here to prophesize God and his doings. Throughout the thirty years he was alive he taught, healed, and baptized. Although he was Jewish, Christians still follow him and listen to his teachings. Today Christians still celebrate Jesus and what he had done for mankind. By celebrating Christmas for the day of his birth and Easter for the day of his resurrection, it shows that Protestants still praise and honor Jesus Christ.
