many people try to deny jesus or hate him, and others love him and praise him. wars have been fought over him and many give their lives for him. Many famous authors claim to have been agnostic before their total transformation in jesus. many nations have shunned jesus and outlawed the teaching of him. society shuns jesus even though christianity is the largest religion to date. Religious persecution is steadily growing against christianity.
Historian Philip Schaff described the overwhelming influence which Jesus had on subsequent history and culture of the world. "This Jesus of Nazareth, without money and arms, conquered more millions than Alexander, Caesar, Mohammed, and Napoleon; without science...he shed more light on things human and divine than all philosophers and scholars combined; without the eloquence of schools, he spoke such words of life as were never spoken before or since, and produced effects which lie beyond the reach of orator or poet; without writing a single line, he set more pens in motion, and furnished themes for more sermons, orations, discussions, learned volumes, works of art, and songs of praise than the whole army of great men of ancient and modern times."
