I know Christisans believe that Jesus Christ will come to this world before dooms day and will lead a war called Armageddon.What will happen if we see the Jesus Christ does not look like his image or sculptures we see.(I think all of them are similar),How can we be sure he is the christ we are waiting for? I am a muslim. From my religious books I had learnt that he will come in Damascus from the sky.What is the christians believe about this?

We can know the Prophet Isa (pbuh) through our study of the Injeel (New Testament).
When Jesus returns, it will be evident to everyone on earth. Yes, his arrival will be visible in the sky.
If I recall correctly, his appearance will be over the general area of Jerusalem/ Israel / Palestine.
Cordially,
John

In the book of Revelation, there is a passage that describes what He looks like when He appears to John on Damascus...
"13and among the lampstands was someone 'like a son of man',dressed in a robe reaching down to his feet and with a golden sash around his chest. 14His head and hair were white like wool, as white as snow, and his eyes were like blazing fire. 15His feet were like bronze glowing in a furnace, and his voice was like the sound of rushing waters. 16In his right hand he held seven stars, and out of his mouth came a sharp double-edged sword. His face was like the sun shining in all its brilliance. "
As for how and where he will come, I don't know, and I don't think He would let us know anyways.
I hope this helped. <><

He will come from the sky in glorious clouds. As to coming to Damascus I think that the Mount of Olives is a more likely location.
Acts 1:6 So when they had come together, they asked him, "Lord, will you at this time restore the kingdom to Israel?" 7 He said to them, "It is not for you to know times or seasons that the Father has fixed by his own authority. 8 But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth." 9 And when he had said these things, as they were looking on, he was lifted up, and a cloud took him out of their sight. 10 And while they were gazing into heaven as he went, behold, two men stood by them in white robes, 11 and said, "Men of Galilee, why do you stand looking into heaven? This Jesus, who was taken up from you into heaven, will come in the same way as you saw him go into heaven." 12 Then they returned to Jerusalem from the mount called Olivet, which is near Jerusalem, a Sabbath day's journey away.

I think we will all know who he is just naturally. I don't know what He looks like. I'm not sure if the pictures we see today are even close. And as far as coming from Damascus, I've not read that either.

Too much reading the bible, not enough acting the bible.
Now, I don't mean preach the bible, like alot of people do.
To know Jesus Christ is to walk in His foot steps.
Everyone knows what Jesus did.
He gave everything He could to the poor. His time and effort, his blood and dignity.
Doing something as simple as buying somebody that's down on their luck a coffee is one step closer to knowing who Jesus is.
When you see a homeless person on the streets, we know 9/10 times their mentally challenged.
So instead of thinking down upon them, think WWJD, and act on that.

by using fact Christ is a call, i don't think of it rather concerns. The Anointed One, Jesus, or Jesus the Anointed One; the two are distinctive procedures of concerning an identical entity.

There is a lot of hate in this world, and a lot of
people use God and Religion as a means to hate and
feel justified in doing so.
