## Biography

### 30-33 A.D.

In Judea, Jesus is working as a carpenter for the Roman Empire as they begin to orchestrate the crucifixions of various Jewish rebels. The main reason for Jesus doing these "sinful" acts in order for his desire to have God hate him, due to his own desires, which go against God's plans for Jesus. Jesus' friend, Judas Iscariot is sent to murder Jesus, but rejects this to due to his suspicion of Jesus being the Messiah.

After saving prostitute, Mary Magdalene from being stoned to death and being baptized by a man named John, Jesus begins to preach the word of God. He eventually meets his disciples, who join forces with Jesus in order to be free from the control of the Romans. Eventually, Jesus goes to the desert, where he resists various temptations of Satan in order to test his connections with God. After going against Satan, he is nursed back to health by Martha and Mary of Bethany.

After bringing back Lazarus of Bethany from the dead and performing various other miracles, Jesus enters Jerusalem with his apostles, where he begins to cleanse the temple from money lenders. After doing this, Jesus' hands begin to bleed, where he realizes his destiny his to be crucified and die for the salvation of mankind, where he then orders Judas to betray him. Jesus is taken by the Romans, and is told by Pontius Pilate that he will be put to death before being flogged and mocked by the Romans.

While being crucified, Jesus is encountered by a young girl, who claims to be a guardian angel by telling Jesus that he is not the Messiah and that God just wants him to be happy. The girl brings Jesus of the cross and to Mary Magdalene, who he marries, but after she suddenly dies, the girl tells Jesus to start a family with Mary and Martha of Bethany. As an old man, Jesus encounters Paul, one of his apostles, who is preaching about the Messiah, which Jesus denies.

On Jesus' death bed, he is encountered by his disciples while Jerusalem is in the thrones of rebellion. When Judas visits Jesus, he criticizes Jesus' rejection of being the Messiah and dying for the salvation of mankind. Judas then informs Jesus of the fact that his guardian angel, is in fact, Satan, who had manipulated him into not saving mankind for his own selfish desires. Jesus crawls outside and begs God for forgiveness and that now he wishes to be the Messiah. Jesus is then transported to the very moment he was tempted by Satan on his cross. After realizing he has overcome the "last temptation", he then shouts the words, "It is accomplished!", before dying.
