If Jesus appears before you?

Question

and would like to take your soul with him right now living everything behind. How would you response? How sure are you its Jesus?

Answer 1

I would be locked up on a regime of electricity & Lithium

Answer 2

From learning from people who have spent a lot of time around true practicing saints, the hallmark of a saint and/or enlightened being is supposed to be a deep sense of absolute love. All else vanishes in a radius around the person. The more powerful the person, the larger the radius. It is difficult to describe. I spent a weekend in the presence of a very powerful teacher, and the feeling was overwhelmingly positive. Like my soul was being embraced and loved and soothed and healed.

I can honestly if a being who made me feel more empowered, more free, and more joyful than the few precious saints I have known on Earth appeared before me to take me "home", I would go in a heartbeat. I try to live each day to the fullest anyway because you might never get another chance. So what would I have to lose if I went on the next adventure? I've always managed to keep in touch with the ones I care about; it wouldn't be any different over there now would it?

Answer 3

Your question is all part of the twisted escapist theology, i.e. Rapture etc. Jesus said "Be ye perfect even as I am perfect" so why escape from the process?

You are exhorted to purify your mind and thereby your actions
and to to follow the Master's admonition, "If you would be His disciple you must first DENY YOURSELF 'then' take up the Cross and follow Him".

Of course you're not hearing that too much from the Multi-million dollar tele-Evangelists these days in their 3 million dollar homes and private Leer-Jets...Benny Hin, and his ilk don't look like examples of self denial do they?

Why are you looking outside for Him when Jesus said, in "Luke 17:21 & 22" where to look.

Answer 4

Jesus pronounced the worldwide would in no way see him back. John sixteen. some declare Revelation says he would be considered back. a million:7. however the unique readers of Revelation have been very accustomed to the old testomony. they'd in the present day know the passage in Revelation as an allusion to an adventure defined in Daniel 7. they'd additionally comprehend that Daniel makes use of the word "drawing close the clouds" in specific to consult from an adventure in Heaven, no longer and adventure on earth. so because it is the way the unique Christian readers would comprehend Revelation and comparable passages in Matthew. those with limited Bible information make all forms of fake assumptions by utilising no longer putting each and every section together, like a jigsaw puzzle; which surely provides basically one clean image once you make the hassle to authentic carry together each and every section.

Answer 5

Sorry to answer a question with a question but, do you honestly think that Jesus could or would do that. I know all you bible thumpers out there are going to hate this but, if Jesus came back today do you think he would go to a church? Doubtfully, I think he would go to the bar and try to save someone, everyone at the church already thinks they're saved.

Answer 6

If he ever existed at all, he's dead now, so that cannot happen.

Souls are an imaginary concept.

As for an intelligent creator, there is no such thing. How do we know, you ask? Surely I haven't looked everywhere in the universe to check that there isn't one lurking somewhere, have I?

We've never seen anyone turn a tennis ball inside out without cutting it, but then we haven't been every place in the universe at every moment in the history of the universe, so how do we know that it's never happened?

Logic, that's how. We don't *have* to look everywhere, because we *know* that it's impossible.

Similarly for a god - We don't *have* to look for gods everywhere in the universe in order to prove they don't exist. We just need logic.

All reasoned arguments rely on axioms, i.e. things which we take to be true, but which are not amenable to proof. The most obvious axiom is the validity of reason itself - It is trivially obvious that we can't use a reasoned argument to prove that reason is valid, because we have to presume that reason is valid in order to make any kind of reasoned argument.

I have another axiom, which I'm sure no sane person would dispute: That the order and complexity that we see around us in the natural universe, and particularly in the intricate structure and functions of living organisms, could not possibly just exist fully formed, with no cause, no origin, no precursor of any sort. I can't *prove* that this is the case, but it seems inconceivable to me that anyone would dispute it.

So, the logical consequence of accepting this axiom is that, for the very same reason, it's not possible that the order and complexity of the universe is sourced in an intelligent deity who designed and made the universe and *himself* exists fully formed with no cause, no origin, no precursor of any sort. I don't think any reasonable person would dispute the axiom presented here, and acceptance of the axiom leads to an indisputable proof of the non-existence of an intelligent creator.

Anyone who (against all reason) asserted that the order and complexity we see in the universe *could* indeed exist fully formed with no cause and no origin, in order thereby to save the concept of an uncaused intelligent designer, would find that they had invalidated said designer by making him redundant - i.e. if the order and complexity of the universe could just exist fully formed and uncaused then it would not need (in fact, could not possibly have) a designer.

Either way, the concept of a creator is invalidated.

Answer 7

I would not trust him, his vestment is like that of Bin Laden, I would think it is a fundamentalist muslim posing as Jesus, if at the end he would convince me that he is the anointed and blah, blah, blah, I would tell him to let me speak to his dad to ask him to explain me his idea of love towards his creation, because I surely never been able to understand it, not that I am religious but precisely this was always the point at which since childhood I decided that I'd prefer Walt Disney tales than Biblical tales.

Answer 8

You'd have to sit him down and ask him some questions about his past, you know, like identity verification. What I mean is, stuff like "What's your mother's maiden name?", and "What make and model was your first car?", and "Where were you born?". If he answers a few of those correctly, then of course He would HAVE to be the real Jesus, and I'd go with Him.

Answer 9

I assure you that if Jesus came right now and wanted to take me with him out of this world i wouldn't blink an eye. I am ready to go. I would know it was him from the nail scars in his hands. He showed the to Thomas, he would show them to me.

Answer 10

If Jesus appears before me then I have died or It is the second coming and all hell is about to brake loose .

Answer 11

If it were truly Jesus , you would instantly KNOW that it was Jesus and Yes ..he could take my soul to heaven.
