How does a chinese take to a jewish, arab, mexian, african or eauopean "son of G-d"
My point: wouldn't that be UNWISE from the all-wise to take on a son and a human for that matter?

He was human. That's what we all are.

Jesus was born an Israelite or Hebrew in the line of king David.
He was the son of God, sent to earth as a ransom sacrifice so at tone fro the death sentence Adam gave us.
God did not chose Jesus, he put a plan in action from the time of Adams fall to bring a seed through whom all mankind will be blessed.
God is not partial but the wants all mankind to attain to salvation.
The message that Jesus taught is universal and will benefit all those that follow it.
Unfortunately the history of so called Christianity has done a lot of damage to the teachings of Jesus and have miss-represented him since the death of the apostles.
People of all nationalities can come to God through Jesus if they are given the correct teachings of the Bible

Jesus was a Hebrew born in Bethlehem (which incidentally means "house of bread" in Hebrew, interesting when you consider that Jesus was called the "bread of life"). It would be impossible for Jesus to have a human mother (Mary) while somehow not being born into a certain "race". Race is a label that we have given each other, but it does not take in to account the fact that we are all spirit children of God. So, as to your question; how does a person relate to or take to a "son of God" that may not fall under their race or ethnicity? Simple: We try to understand that God does not place us in racial or ethnic categories, we are his spirit children that have mortal bodies. Race and ethnicity mean nothing in the grand scheme of things.

if you believe the bible, Jesus was the descendant of adam who was the the first man, then to abraham, issac and jacob patriarchs of the jewish race (hebrew) also descendants of adam making the first race hebrew or jewish. so Jesus is a jew. the different races evolved from the sons of noah. making everyone on earth descendants of adam wow! we're all brothers and sisters. now, isreal is the apple of God's eye and all jews are God's elect people which means He will defend isreal a no cost as long as they are obedient to Him and do as He commands and that is not to give up any of the promised land, which belongs to God, to any other tribe or nation (which is happening now) if and once they divide jerusalem and give it to the enemy God will bring His wrath upon the nation and to those who are plundering. God will always be objective because He is fair and just and is not a respecter of persons which is a part of His divine nature.

Jesus was Jewish. And your point..... I don't know I'm confused about that. So many people say that Jesus is God and God is Jesus. So does that make God Jewish? And is Jesus really God's son then? I don't know, I think christianity is confusing in general. They're like "the Party" in 1984 by George Orwell, if you've read that.

Well if you feel that he was God then he wasn't human so he does not fall into a category of race.
If you feel he was human than human is what he was.
The fact that you would ask means you think in terms of race that makes you a racist. The cunning part is that you might not think that about yourself but if you call yourself identify yourself as anything but Human then you think in terms of race and you are a racist.
Until humans stop thinking in terms of race and tribes we will have war.
So I'm asking you to join the human race your whole world can change.

Jesus was hebrew. It says so in the bible. Chances are Buddism, Hindiuism and Islam exist because Buddah was Asian, Vishnu was Indian and Mohammad was Middle Eastern so those races follow those respective religions. You can believe in what ever you want to, I mean in America you can worship Buddah if you want, but hes not American. If we only followed religions that come from the same country we are from, we would all be mormons in America, right?

Jesus was described as "ruddy complected" and was a Jew. Your question is confused, you need to read the Bible with some help in a Bible study. God is all-knowing and is never "unwise", however, people can be very confused.

I believe that Jesus was very dark skinned, but people picture him as white, because the Romans, and the Greeks were mostly influence by the Christian point of view. So they would picture Jesus as white just like them selves.

Well, the bibIe said he had hair of wool and feet of brass. Sound like anyone you might know? Bethleham is i believe in Isreal. So the pictures of the caucasion Jesus i believe to be for the Church to accept him as one of theirs. Who knows though, maybe he was green. He was responsible for miracles, i don't know any HUMAN personally that can do that.

If a thousand people of different race were all looking at Jesus in front of them, they all may see Jesus a bit different, and color. And if Jesus was to speak to them they all may hear their language.
