Jesus's early life Most of Jesus's life is told through the four Gospels of the New Testament Bible, known as the Canonical gospels, written by Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. These are not biographies in the modern sense but accounts with allegorical intent. They are written to engender faith in Jesus as the Messiah and the incarnation of God, who came to teach, suffer and die for people’s sins. Jesus was born circa 6 B.C. in Bethlehem.

Jesus love me

Jesus love me Jesus loves me! This I know, For the Bible tells me so. Little ones to Him belong; They are weak but He is strong. Jesus loves me! Loves me still, Tho I'm very weak and ill, That I might from sin be free, Bled and died upon the tree. Jesus loves me! He who died Heaven's gate to open wide; He will wash away my sin, Let His little child come in. Jesus loves me! He will stay Close beside me all the way. Thou hast bled and died for me; I will henceforth live for Thee.
