Do you think JesusChrist is who He said He is?

Question

Hes devinity and place in this world( present, future and past)

Answer 1

That depends on your frame of reference - if you're referring to the Christian scriptures as they are popularly accepted today, then no. I don't believe God would exist in the form of a man. That puts a limit on God, and to me that is sacriligious. God is greater than anything mankind could possibly imagine - He is UN-limited. But I believe, as is stated in the Qur'an, that he is a great prophet who was born of a virgin and shall return on the Day of Judgment.

No matter what you believe about him, he had some great advice for mankind that is well worth paying attention to. No one who has the flow of time in years on earth measured by their birth (i.e. B.C. and A.D.) is too insignificant to pay attention to.

Answer 2

Jesus was a member of the Essenes, a very devout religious group from palestine. He was married, which was almost a requirement of being an Essene, as well as a learned scholar and Rabbi.
The Dead Sea scrolls were stashed away by them, just before the group, was exterminated by the Roman authorities. Some of the oldest known works of the Bible ome from the Dead Sea scrolls.
Jesus himself never laid claim to divinity, mostly refering to himself as the Son of Man, or a generic son of God, as in, we are all children of God.

Answer 3

Yes I do believe He is the good shepherd and that all who believe on Him will inherit everlasting life. past - He was with God at the beginning of creation. "Let us make man into our image." present. "He sustains and delivers anyone who calls on His name. Future- He will come again to take those who are called by his name out of this world, and God's wrath will be poured out on all those who rejected Him.

Answer 4

Uh...no. He isn't the first "savior" to come along, nor the first to rise from the dead, nor the first to be born of a virgin. These theologies are far more ancient than christianity. Read up on the pagan origins of the christ myth. A good starting place would be:

Answer 5

Yes...

For those that buy the false claim that no one taught Jesus as divine before the fourth century, How did Tertullian, writing before 220 A.D., write:

Tiberius accordingly, in whose days the Christian name made its entry into the world, having himself received intelligence from Palestine of events which had clearly shown the truth of Christ's divinity, brought the matter before the senate, with his own decision in favour of Christ. The senate, because it had not given the approval itself, rejected his proposal. Caesar held to his opinion, threatening wrath against all accusers of the Christians.

Answer 6

there is no room for middle ground here; either He is or He is the worst possible kind of human being ever. I personally know that Jesus is the Son of God and that He died for my sins and rose again on Sunday morning.
Praise God!

Answer 7

That he said, follow me and I will make you fishers of men? Whats so hard to believe about that? Being a fisher of men makes it easier to sell them stuff and let me tell you, its easy to sell to a woman, while selling to a man, you have to capture their imagination and any edge you can use is a worthy edge, even using what Jesus teaches.

Answer 8

I know he was completely secure in his identity. Many times when they came to take him away by force he slipped through their midst and was on the outside looking in. He knew their thoughts and minds. That they wanted to make him King by force.

Answer 9

I think history has made him something he was not. He wasn't considered divine until the council of Nicea in or around 325 AD.

Answer 10

it is a flawed cult book, compiled and edited by a pagan roman emperor, that makes that claim. the jesus creature may never have existed, it is only a cult myth. so, one cannot state that he made any calim at all. even as the jesus character is described, it sounds like he was most likely a gay man.
