Will you forgive that I won't worship a Jewish guy as my lord? and that I don't believe he did any of those supernatural things, I like his teachings though, he seems really smart. How could he be so selfish to only show his powers to a certain people at a certain time and place 2000 yrs ago? how come he did'nt show his gifts to other nations and peoples, are we supposed to believe on heresay?

I'll forgive you -- but the much bigger question is, will God forgive you???

There's nothing to forgive. You have a choice. I believe those supernatural acts are just figurative, not literal. You don't have to worship Him.
He said in Jn10:37 on, "Do not believe me unless I do what my Father does. But if I do it, even though you do not believe me, believe the miracles, that you may know and understand that the Father is in me, and I in the Father."
Instant miracles still happen today. But I believe in our time, we are looking at the formation of miracles not as a one-off thing, but lasting a period of time.
Yeah, I say He's smart too! He seems to have a 'right' response to whomever asks Him anything. Other than answering a question, He is aware that there are others in the crowd who are not so open, and His responses always 'hit the spot' where the nail is!
He was also a man, other than his other divine nature, so he couldn't have shown his gifts to other nations, peoples. But He did exhort His disciples to spread their borders.
No, to be a believer, you don't need to do deep studies of the Bible. You need to accept Him, get baptised, learn about salvation, and you're all set to face whatever comes with the faith you have. If you are obedient to Him in simple things, God will show you all the 'deep things' of God Himself. You don't need to hear it from various 'schools' of theology, unless God Himself leads you to a particular man of God who can show you more. Some theology schools are just too high-brow for God's taste, arguing about matters too lofty for the man on the ground.
In order to understand Jesus as a man, try and place yourself in His shoes.
I hope this helps....

Jesus is alive and well today. He sent the Holy Spirit into the world after His ascension into heaven and miracles, healings, wonderful things are still happening whereever people believe and honor Him.
God bless!!!

Sure. I agree with you. No one or thing will ever be held in the same regard as my creator. And I refuse to worship an idol.
Of course, I'm sure there are a bunch of people who will say we'll be dancing in hell together.

Thats true Jesus is not a God but he deserves due respect as he`s the last but one prophet of the total prophets. If people can`t respect holy men atleast dont abuse them.
The last and final messenger and prophet of God is Muhammed pbuh.

God will not forgive you if you don't ask Him to.
My friend, when Jesus came He told His disciples to go to all the nations and make disciples out of all people, not just the Jewish people.
He loves you! He suffered on the cross for YOU. Please believe it.

He showed it to you in the Bible, which you obviously haven't read, because if you had, you would know that a better question would be "Will He forgive me?"--Who cares what Christians think!
"Every knee shall bow, every tongue confess, that Jesus Christ is LORD..."
-Holy Bible, KJV

Even if Jesus did perform wonders, it doesn't make him the Messiah, or a prophet, and especially not God.
The Bible warns against following someone just because he can make miracles. (Deuteronomy 13)

It's not hearsay. The Gospels were written by four of Jesus' personal followers who bore eyewitness accounts to what they saw. Of course I can forgive you if you don't recognize Him as God. You haven't done anything wrong to me; what do I care what you think? What matters is will God forgive you when you stand before him to be judged.

I feel sorry for you. Your view is so wrong. He showed and still shows everyone His power today by always doing for us, healing us, helping us, saving us. I could tell you many things in my personal life that He has done for me. But one thing He asks before He pours out all his many blessings on you is that you believe in Him. You don't offend me. Your only hurting yourself.

Yes,
however, one day we will all meet HIM, if the gospel is in any part true! and he will either forgive us or condemn us.
I think the greater condemnations fall upon those that profess to believe in him. but did not Walk in truth and righteousness
