I have to agree with skyman and would like to clarify asim's statement from a Christian point of view (lest someone misunderstands something). Christians do not believe that Jesus was a prophet but God himself (basically, Jesus and God are one and the same). They also believe that he did not come to spread the word of God but to "teach" it, to show the people where they were going wrong. God became flesh in Jesus to show the people how much he loved them, to proclaim the Kingdom of Heaven. And many other things...
