Mithra was viewed as the Good Shepherd, the "Way, the Truth and the Light," the Redeemer, the Savior, the Messiah.

Mithra is omniscient, as he "hears all, sees all, knows all: none can deceive him."

He was identified with both the Lion and the Lamb.

His sacred day was Sunday, "the Lord's Day," hundreds of years before the appearance of Christ.

His religion had a eucharist or "Lord's Supper."

Mithra "sets his marks on the foreheads of his soldiers."

Mithraism emphasized baptism.

Mithra has the following in common with the Jesus character:

Mithra was born on December 25th of the virgin Anahita.

The babe was wrapped in swaddling clothes, placed in a manger and attended by shepherds.

He was considered a great traveling teacher and master.

He had 12 companions or "disciples."

He performed miracles.

As the "great bull of the Sun," Mithra sacrificed himself for world peace.

He ascended to heaven.

Mithra's birthday on December 25th has been so widely claimed that the Catholic Encyclopedia ("Mithraism") remarks: "The 25 December was observed as his birthday, the natalis invicti, the rebirth of the winter-sun, unconquered by the rigours of the season."
