3) Now-a-day lots of people are following Jesus because his vibrant and holy ghost cure them from terrible diseases and help them to be a very simple life as he did in the past. For example; many Christian on Easter week try to replenish their soul by remember Jesus crucifixion and resurrection together with their family avoiding their hectic life.
