Abstract :

This study deals with the religious advertisement methods of the holy Jesus in the holy Quran. In this regard, verses relevant to his position were extracted and then verses about his advertisement methods, according to verse 125 of Nahl sura, on the three axes of wisdom, good (hasaneh) preaching, and the best (ahsan) controversy, were analyzed. By advertisement, here, we mean crating positive interpretation about divine teachings in the society. In this study, only those verses referring to the holy Jesus' (PBUH) interactive state (a dialog between the Holy Jesus and people) are discussed. In these verses the holy Jesus tries to invite people to accept the divine religion and have faith in the Almighty God.  In this descriptive research, we concluded that the holy Jesus's advertisement methods are based upon wise revelations and inviting people to worship Allah. Such advertisement  is based on reason and rational argument and the acknowledgement of the Torah by Jesus, at the invitation of the people to faith, is an example of the best (ahsan) controversy.
