A:

Luke's Gospel suggests that Jesus began his ministry in 29 CE, and the synoptic gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke) seem to indicate that the entire period of Jesus' mission was no more than one year. Hence, many Christians believe that Jesus was condemned to death in 30 CE.

John's Gospel, on the other hand, quite clearly defines the length of Jesus' ministry as three years, because Jesus went to Jerusalem for the Passover each year. Based on this and Luke's assumption, other Christians say that Jesus was condemned to death in 33 CE.

A further piece of information is that the synoptic gospels say that John the Baptist was imprisoned and executed right at the very beginning of Jesus' mission. Since we know from Josephus (Antiquities of the Jews, Book 18) that John was imprisoned and executed in 35 or early 36 CE, the gospel account would meant that Jesus was condemned and crucified in 36-39 CE. The problem with these dates is that Pontius Pilate was no longer governor of Judea.

This simply demonstrates just how little we really know about the crucifixion of Jesus. We do not know when this happened, but the most popular guesses are 30 or 33 CE.

Why do people say after death of Jesus Christ instead of Anno domini?

Anno Domini does not mean "after" the death of Jesus. It is a Latin term that means "The Year of Our Lord." So ostensibly the modern Gregorian calendar has its start date anchored on the birth year of Jesus (although it is generally held that Jesus was born 4-7 years before the 1st year of the Gregorian calendar).

It wasn't identified exactly in the Bible the year on which JESUS walk on the water but we can say it was perhaps year 33 as JESUS walkes on the water after His resurrection from the death when He appeared to His disciples,and as known that JESUS died when He was 33 years old so we can guess that His resurrection and His appearanace to His disciples was in year 33.

What does A D mean in dates?

The AD stands for After Death in reference to Jesus Christ. ie a date like 200 bc means 200 years before the birth of Jesus Christ, and 2000 ad means 2000 years after Jesus Christ`s death. AD is a Latin term "Anno Domini" meaning "the Year of Our Lord" and references Jesus' birth not his death. So 2000 a.d. means 2000 years after Jesus' birth not after his death. And 100 b.c. means 100 years before Jesus birth. So time was divided by the birth of Jesus alone not his birth and his death. Events are considered happening before his birth or after his birth. AD doesn't have anything to do with Jesus' death.
