This is a Christian themed design
I created based on Jesus and classic symbols associated with him: the
Alpha and Omega; the fish, and the cross. Jesus (also known
as Jesus of Nazareth and Jesus Christ) is the central figure of
Christianity. Christian views of Jesus center on the belief
that Jesus is the Messiah whose coming was promised in the Old
Testament and that he was resurrected after his crucifixion.
Christians predominantly believe that Jesus was God incarnate, who came
to provide salvation and reconciliation with God.

The main sources of information
regarding Jesus' life and teachings are the four canonical Gospels of
the New Testament: Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. Most
scholars in the fields of history and biblical studies agree that Jesus
was a Galilean Jew, was regarded as a teacher and healer, was baptized
by John the Baptist, and was crucified in Jerusalem on orders of the
Roman Governor Pontius Pilate under the accusation of sedition against
the Roman Empire. Very few modern scholars believe that all
ancient texts on Jesus' life are either completely accurate or
completely inaccurate.
The Gospels state that Jesus, as
Messiah, was sent to "give his life as a ransom for many" and "preach
the good news of the Kingdom of God." Over the course of his
ministry, Jesus is said to have performed various miracles, including
healings, exorcisms, walking on water, turning water into wine, and
raising several people, such as Lazarus, from the dead.
At the height of his ministry,
Jesus attracted huge crowds numbering in the thousands, primarily in
the areas of Galilee and Perea (in modern-day Israel and Jordan
respectively). Some of Jesus' most famous teachings come from
the Sermon on the Mount, which contained the Beatitudes and the Lord's
Prayer. Jesus often employed parables, such as the Parable of
the Prodigal Son and the Parable of the Sower. His teachings
encouraged unconditional self-sacrificing God-like love for God and for
all people. During his sermons, he preached about service and
humility, the forgiveness of sin, faith, turning the other cheek, love
for one's enemies as well as friends, and the need to follow the spirit
of the law in addition to the letter.
The teachings of Jesus promoted
the value of those who had commonly been regarded as inferior: women,
the poor, ethnic outsiders, children, prostitutes, the sick, prisoners,
etc. For centuries countless hospitals, orphanages, and schools have
been founded explicitly in Jesus' name. Jesus and his message
have been interpreted, explained and understood by many people.
