All the insults and rumors about Yahshua Messiah, are not true. Only Satan and his followers would try everything to discredit Him on His accomplishments. This is the only one thing I can say, lots of people have had witnessed all the miracles He performed and especially when people saw Him ascend to heaven. No one has ascend to heaven except Him. If He did a single sin on earth, which HE DID NOT, he won't be able to ascend to heaven, to be with YHWH Elohim. Think about it.

There isn't one shred of evidence—not one—to support this idea. The book you were reading is fiction—and that's exactly what this idea is: fiction.
Nowhere in the Bible (or in any other Christian writing after Jesus' ministry) is there any hint at all that Jesus was married. For example, His closest relatives and disciples came together at the cross as He was dying—but no wife is mentioned, as she would have been if He had been married. Jesus' sole concern then was for the welfare of His mother (see John 19:26-27).
This isn't to say that Jesus disapproved of marriage—not at all. In fact, His first miracle took place at a wedding, to which He had been invited with His mother and some of His disciples (see John 2:1-11). God gave marriage to us, and Jesus spoke often about the joys and responsibilities of marriage. Most of the earliest disciples were married, including Peter (whose mother-in-law was healed by Jesus—Mark 1:30).
Jesus came into the world for one reason: to die for our sins on the cross. Don't be misled by myths that might turn you away from that great truth. Instead, make sure of your commitment to Him, for "He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree (cross), so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness" (1 Peter 2:24).

It's just a whole bunch of bull. I also am glad to see that there are people who are smart enough to know what is real and true from total fiction.
If Jesus felt it was important for us to know what His life was like between adolescence and adulthood He would have inspired either one or more of the apostles to write that in the Bible. And it's evident that He felt it wasn't important. What's already there for us to know is what is important. Hope that makes sense. :-)
Even though Jesus lived as a human here on earth and had the same temptations we have, He as a extreme God would never lean to temptation and that means sex.

I think it is 100% believable and a lot more plausible than some of the other stuff I have heard about him. Since we are talking about made up Christ stuff, how about Vonnegut's "Another Roadside Attraction" where it is suggested that the Vatican has Jesus' body and they are hiding it lest the whole religion goes up in smoke?
Peace!

Doesn't scripture itself state that Jesus was fully human? Since human beings are sexual beings, and since the Bible never stated that Jesus wasn't married, isn't it at least feasible that Jesus had children? Remember, most of the writings that were not canonized into the Bible were rejected because many of the gospels came from his family members (brothers) and from Mary herself (gospel of Mary). The early Christian fathers wanted to distance Jesus found his humanity and focus more on his divinity.

The truth is that neither you or anyone else knows for sure. But you are the only one that has something to lose if this does turn out to be the truth. That is if you are a christian.

I think a better question is why do people get so upset at the thought Jesus had a child? Would it really diminsh what he did? Would it make his teachings meaningless? Would you love him anyless?
Would the fact he had a child prove he wasn't divine? God had a child and he was divine.

those of us who follow the Bible and the Christ of the bible don't believe that
people who are always looking for an excuse to rebel against God might, cause they'll believe anything to keep away the light
John 3:19
And this is the condemnation, that the light has come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil.

why is that so impossible. he was a man. di you think that he could not feel love. and sex is not a sin so long as it is done for the reasons of love and conception.
the church cannot allow the thought of a holy bloodline. simply because it would open them up for an usurper claiming divine blood to take over theri business.

I don't think that anyone (other than a few addled conspiracy theorists) really takes this very seriously. However, for some, it is a very tempting jibe to throw at Christians.
