There appeared in thefe our a Man of great virtue, called JESUS CHRIST, who is yet living amongst us, and of the people is accepted for a Prophet, but his own Difciples call him the Son of God.He raifeth the Dead and cureth all manner of Difeafes, a Man of ftature fomewhat tall and come- ly, with a very reverend Coun- tenance, fuch as the beholders may both love and fear, his Hair, of the colour of a Cheftnut full ripe, and plain almoſt down to his ears, but from the cars down ward fomewhat curled, and more orient of colour waving about his ſhoulders.In the middeft of his Head goeth a ſeam or partition of his Hair, after the manner of the Naza- rites his Forehead very plain and fmooth his Face without spot or wrinckle, beautified with a comely red; his Nofe and Mouth fo formed as nothing can be reprehended; his Beard fomewhat thick, agreable in colour to the Hair of his Head, not of any great length, but forked in the midft; of an innocent look; his Eys gray, clear, and quick.In reproving he is fevere, in admonishing courteous, and fair-fpoken, pleafant in fpeach mixed with gravity.It cannot be remembred that any have feen him laugh, but many have feen him weep in proportion of Body well shaped and itraight, his Hands and Armes very delectable to behold; in fpeaking, very temperate, modeft and wife. A Man for his fingular beauty furpaffing the Children of Men.

Conclusion :

Prophet Muhammad ﷺ described exact description of Jesus Christ as it appears on the historical letter of lentulus. That he have reddish face . 

The amazing thing is that the letter described Jesus not as God but as a human and a prophet. Which confirms Islamic teachings that in past people doesn't see Jesus as God but a prophet. The letter also says that he is son of God but it's completely normal in Christian tradition. The son of God doesn't mean literal son but it means metaphorical son . For example all Jews are also called children of God in psalm 82:6
