Geoff:
Alla, your request has left me somewhat puzzled.

The parameters which you set out are exactly those which 
define the very core of the Christian faith and which have 
been discussed on Main. Jesus was God in human form, 
he died and rose again and did so to bring salvation to 
those who believe in him and accept his sacrifice.

Surely that fulfils all the criteria you need?
