And my Biblical question is: Do you believe Jesus believed he was the messiah, do you believe a bunch of people misunderstood him and he was just a normal wise man, or do you believe something else regarding Jesus?
As for whom I believe Jesus was/is: I believe Jesus was the Messiah foretold in the Old Testament. That he was both God and man. I would not state that he was misunderstood if you are referring to the Jewish leadership of the New Testament. I would say he was a wise man but that mere wisdom does not denote deity or anything truly remarkable, just being wise.
I see you state that you are Muslim sir. I have spent some time in the Middle East. I must say people over there are devout to say the least. I was very surprised by what I experienced over there. It was my perception that most Muslims were much more dedicated to their walk with God than most Americans are. I was taken aback at times when observing soldiers openly praying on the street when the call to prayer would sound. Who do you believe Christ is?

The first thing that comes to mind would be the eternal ramifications of Christianity if what it purports to be true is.

I can expound on that by stating why I should care if atheism, or any other religion for that matter proves to be true.
