The Greatest Man in History

I got this in an email.  I just had to share it.

The Greatest Man in History, Jesus, had no servants, yet they called Him Master;
Had no degree, yet they called Him Teacher;
Had no medicines, yet they called Him Healer;             
He had no army, yet kings feared Him;
He won no military battles, yet He conquered the world;
He committed no  crime, yet they crucified Him;
He was buried in a tomb, yet He lives today.
I feel honored to serve such a Leader who loves us! 
In chemistry, He turned water to wine;
In biology, He was born without the normal conception;  
In physics, He disproved the law of gravity when He ascended into Heaven;
In economics, He disproved the law of diminishing return by feeding 5000 men with 2 fishes & 5 loaves of bread;
In medicine, He cured the sick and the blind without administering a single dose of drugs;
In history, He is the beginning and the end;
In government, He said that He shall be called Wonderful counselor, Prince of Peace;
In religion, He said no one comes to the Father except through Him;
So, who is He?  He is Jesus!
Celebrate Him; He is worthy.
