My main man Jesus (Kebir Blue)

Dam. I tell you what, if I was Jesus I'd be nailing myself to the cross.
I mean, thats some fucked up shit. Being born God but being just a man. Having people question you every day about being God, but knowing that your just a man. I tell you what would mess me up the most. Knowing that all those baby boys were killed when you were born just because you were born. Hell on Earth.
Yet he still tried to show us the good in ourselves, even though all he felt for us was contempt.
He fought for man till the bitter end. Maybe thats why he was/is a God amongst men? Because he did'nt turn his back on what was wrong, even though he knew it was going to kill him.

And before any of you say that he knew he was God. He did'nt. How do I know? "God? Why have you forsaken me?"

I wonder. If Jesus turned up now and with what we know about life, do you think he would be seen as a God/Devil? or would he be seen

I don't know you Nix, but have some faith in humanity.

Hi Tisiphone. Hope all is well
Did'nt Jesus have a big part to play in shaping our humanity?

Have some faith in humanity. I like that

It depends what you believe i guess

I would like to think humanity cannot be shaped - the human mind is perhaps the only certainty.

One day, every knee shall bow and every tongue confess that Jesus is Lord!

Except those of the jewish, islam, hindu, buddhist, wicca, etc...you know those 'other' faiths.

Me, i will never bow and confess that jesus is anything other than a dead jewish carpenter.

I hear he made exceedingly good cakes, too. Just like Mr.Kipling.

Where does the bible say that Jesus is God? I know many places that it says Jesus is Gods son! John 14:28; Mark 13:32; Mark 1:11; these are just a few if you want more there are plenty. Although he is a God and a Lord, he is never said to be the Almighty God or Lord. Even before he died notice what he said at Luke 22:42.

Where does the bible say Jesus had contempt for humans? Prov 8:30,31; Even God loves humans. John 3:16

If Jesus turned up among us now, Why would he be viewed any differently that he was then?

jeebus? oh come on guys you can't think theirs some guy in the clouds looking down at you. Do you? if so me thinks you need to go have your head looked at.

Honestly, that isn't the weirdest thing that people believe though is it?

Jesus sucked my balls. He then passed out of the smell of cheese

lol

Christianity: One woman's affair gone out of control.

thx nix, for once again starting yet another religious thread

I gotta say, seriously, that jesus got a pretty good deal. A demi god, preaches about stuff for a while, does some miracles. Gets nailed to a cross. Suffers for 3 days. Then gets resurrected and then gets to rule the universe as god for eternity.

Sounds like a pretty good deal! Life time of preaching, 3 excruciating days in return for ruling the universe? Sign me up now!

Yeah, but think about the amount of emails and facebook messages he gets! Would be a nightmre :P

Who do you recon gets more. Jesus or Santa?

You still here Martock? I tell you what. You would be so surprised how many religions are waiting for Christ to return. Hindu, Islam ect ect.

Anyways, hi Serpent, I know your still around. You make a point. I thought he was the flesh of God on Earth? I'm gonna scan my bible now.
I did use the word contempt. Contempt(Collins English Dic)Deliberate disrespect for the authority of a court of law. And as the people follow the authority of a court of law, did he not also have contempt for the people?
And how was he viewed earlier?
When was the last time you went to church? I go Midnight mass. Up until 2 years ago, the churches around my area were empty. Apart from the old folk. I don't know what it's like where you are.

Maxwell. Helloa if your still around. Got a que

I'm waiting for Christ to return. Then I have somebody to blame for the state of the world.

Jesus WAS god on earth. Some religions believe there are 2 gods. The one to make earth and jesus. I believe it to be different. I believe they are both the same man. Jesus' purpose was to sacrifice himself for the sins of this world. Yes he did preach and do miracles but that wasn't his main purpose. Some churches(like mine) also think that when jesus died he WENT to hell because every ones sins and then he took away the keys from the devil and freed jewish people that were in hell. Then he arose and made his final sermons to his disciples and then left. I don't have all the verses right at this moment to give you proof but i know my pastor does. All in all many of you have made great points.

Jesus don't exist by the way folks.study he egyptians history and it goes way back before Jesus crap stuff so there for,there are no evidence of him,so called God.ah ha ha ha.

Nix, the bible does say that Jesus was the *son of God* several times. Jesus never had deliberate disrespect for the people, that's why the scriptures I quoted earlier apply. Obviously many people showed contempt for him. And except for a select few people, (and not just Jews either) people did have contempt for him, they did not believe he was who he said and proved he was. And that would no doubt be the same reaction he would get now, if he was here in the flesh.
And to answer your question about when I attended church last....I do attend 'church' 2 times a week, have done so since I was very little, and have been very regular at it. There are not many things I do know, but when it comes to the bible, I feel confident in my knowledge. Although I'm not a bible encyclopedia.
Also the bible does say that Jesus did in fact go to hell. In Acts

if jesus exist,why is the world coming to an end in year 2036 with an asteroid coming to earth.how do you explain this situation.i heard some where in the bible that so called god from heaven,will not destroy the earth again as his promise.from the days of noah.if it does hit the earth without russians and america not going to fix the problem,who else is going to save the earth,god?yeah right.i doubt it.

I have no idea about an asteroid hitting the earth in 2036, all I can tell you is what the bible says. It says at Ge 9:8-17; Isa 54:9,10 that God would not bring to ruin the earth as he did in Noah's day. There are many other places where the bible says that the earth will not be destroyed, that 'the meek shall inherit the earth.' There are however places in the bible where it speaks of the earth being consumed, or burned with fire, but with a little bit of research, those passages can be understood to be illustrative. But as for an asteroid hitting the earth, this is news to me, or at least a big un.

i know about the noah's days.i used to be christian and read the bible my self.but a lot of things he says about healing and all the promises he makes,dont makes sense to me.because i been there and done that with the church etc.and all i got out of it was nothing but trouble and no healing at all.so where is jesus in all this?

All because you cannot understand does not mean it isnt true. Besides by going to 'church' what did you expect? Not all churches are the same, perhaps it was the wrong one? Possibly it being trouble, might have been a clue!

a wrong church? jeez
