Great article @bibizzle, Jesus is so unique and different from every other messiahs we ever heard of. Apostle Paul made the below statement about Christ illustrating how great, humble and compassionate our savior was/is:
He always had the nature of God, but he did not think that by force he should try to remain equal with God. Instead of this, of his own free will he gave up all he had, and took the nature of a servant. He became like a human being and appeared in human likeness. He was humble and walked the path of obedience all the way to death— his death on the cross. For this reason God raised him to the highest place above and gave him the name that is greater than any other name.
That is: Paul says that Jesus is unique because he set aside all the greatness of God and became humble like any man, and obeyed God even though it meant he had to die the death on the cross. Jesus is unique because he gave up is dignity to suffer for what He never committed, He understood that his death was the only way out for our freedom, and He gave His life for our sake. He went through series of sufferings which no other man could ever withstand, and to gain a prize no other man was worthy of. I love you Jesus!
