jesus is a dead arab jew. thats the reality. a few good ideas, but he left a hell of a mess for us. the gospels are the only source of info about jesus, and they weren't written until at least 50 yrs after his death, most likely 200 years. stories were passed on by mouth. you know how fast a story changes, imagine 200 years worth!

So...because he wasn't really a carpenter, he wasn't the Son of God? Nice logic there, what a substantive, logical link.
Of course, your claim that there were no trees in the time of Jesus is pure crap, not to mention that a carpenter, translated into English from all the previous translations, could have meant "craftsman" or "stone mason" originally.

the Hebrew word that carpenter is translated from suggests a craftsman that works with materials that could be but are not limited to wood, stone masons fall under the catergory also. Full understanding cannot be gained without understanding the full and true definitions of the Hebrew terminology, culture and tradition

in todays world how could a son of carpenter be the president of USA- abraham lincoln.?
as for the roman empire, do not forget that they were the ones who killed Jesus-pbuh by crucifying him, but Allah had replaced him with a likeness of another. so according to muslims Inshaallah (God Willing) jesus-pbuh will return and will give u an answer then.
and it was the church in 100 AD who single- handedly decided to reject and burn the Holy Book or say The Word Of God.
yes u are right he is not the Lord but he was sent by Lord for people like us to be guided. but right now there are muslims and jews who take him for a prophet and christianity that takes him to be the Lord.
may the peace and blessings of Allah be upon us and may He guide us on the right path.

Jesus is the Lord of everything. In Hebrews 1:10-12 it says: In the beginning, O Lord, you laid the foundations of the earth, and the heavens are the work of your hands. They will perish, but you remain; they will all wear out like a garment. You will roll them up like a robe; like a garment they will be changed, But you remain the same, and your years will never end. And in Chapter 2:6b-8a it says "What is man that you are mindful of him, the son of man that you care for him? You made him a little lower than the angels; your crowned him with glory and honor and put everything under his feet.

He was the king of Jews. Mary hadn't ever sinned and was chosen to give birth to him, and was concieved with him; but was currently engaged to Joseph the carpenter. He is the son of God, who made the earth.

Where did u get your info from,and is that really the message that God is sending us,or has He given us a choice to recieve and accept that Jesus died to save us from our sins and ask HIm to come into hearts so that we may live with Him in eternity.The choice is yours,and I pray that u choose Him.

He was a carpenter with his earthly father. His heavenly Father is God.The bible speaks of the cedars of Lebanon.

If that's true, they missed the fig tree He cursed, the tree Zacheus was sitting in, the entire grove of olive trees in one particular garden that I know of,....I'm sure there are more examples we can think of. Where did you get your info?
