"With this [...] a simple carpenter turned water into wine."
―Al Mualim, on Jesus' use of an Apple of Eden, 1191.[src]

Jesus (c. 4 BCE – c. 30 CE), also known as Jesus of Nazareth or Jesus Christ, was a first century Jewish Rabbi and Carpenter who became one of the central figures of Christianity. His believers, called Christians, view him as the Christ and the Messiah foretold in the Old Testament, believing him to be the Son of God who sacrificed himself to cleanse the sins of all humanity, before being resurrected from the dead and ascending to Heaven.

Early Christians wrote down his life and teachings as the New Testament. His miraculous powers were discovered to be due to possessing a Shroud of Eden.

History

After being betrayed to the ancient Templars by Judas Iscariot, one of the disciples of Jesus, the Templars had the Romans arrest, tortrue and then crucify Jesus, while they took the Shroud for themselves.[1] However, Jesus' disciples were able to recover the Shroud and on the third day, resurrect him.[2]
