Answer 1

no

Answer 2

No. Those are images of a group that made Jesus look like he's caucasian. They did that so they could relate to him in some way. They sort of created God in their own image so they could feel comfortable worshiping him.

Here comes the hard part:

Let's say by wild chance THAT IS what jesus looked like. Would I as a Black man still have given my life and soul over to him?

Answer:

Yes.

So sue me...

Answer 3

No, those look more like portraits of a young David Robb and Peter O'Toole than the actual Jesus.

Heck, I probably look more like the real Jesus than those two pictures.

Answer 4

Ex 20:4
"You shall not make for yourself a carved image, or any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth;

Answer 5

Neither merely an artist's conception intended to depict the
Christ ..... He may have been Black for all we know? Remember
while alive he supposedly had to correct his illiterate Disciples
how ever was it Ego and False Piety that took over after his death or can we simply trust anything written even though Christ
did not himself while alive.... do you follow Christ or his Apostles

Answer 6

Hi... I looked at both pics of Jesus, they are both very beautiful, and the artist's perception of what He looked like... They are both well done and have a gentleness and tender quality! I couldn't choose... but the latter pic was a lot more familiar to my generation.... from back in the olden days... ;0)

Answer 7

Jesus is Love. Yes these are pictures of what they think Jesus would look like but aim not sure anyone does really know for sure.but someday when we get to heaven we will see our father in all of his glory.God Bless

Answer 8

Neither of those would have been Jesus, as he was a Middle Eastern person. His skin would have been more olive colored, and He certainly wouldn't have been white. It seems that even now, we make God in our own image.

Answer 9

I like both of the pictures, but I think Jesus can look like alot of different ways to different people, and that's the whole thing; everyone is different and everyone has a different opion. I think the most important thing is that we believe in him and that he is real. The bible says,"Blessed are those who believe but not yet seen! None of us will know exactly what he does look like until we get there, but to me it doesn't matter what he looks like, just that I know him personally, and he can look at me and say the same!

Answer 10

Probably not. Chances are He looked more like this when He came the first time:

And when he returns He will look something like this:

Answer 11

Jesus is a person, or thing, but we can only guess what He looks like, We don't know what he looks like at all, He could be a spirit, or anything, we can only get something in our minds to represent Him.
