No, the boy Jesus (son of Mary, adopted son of Joseph) did not kill any human. His enemies would surely have mentioned this during their repeated insults and accusations against him.

I haven't come across that incident anywhere in the bible. I have been a christian all my life (more than 20 years) I have been around Christians as well, so I am confident that its not true.
You can read the account of Jesus' life as a kid in Mathew chapter 2 verse 1 to the end. You can also read Luke chapter 2 verse 1 to the end. They give the full account of Jesus as a child.
You can read the bible on line at http://www.htmlbible.com/
Try the King James version
Hope it helps!

There is an obscure tale in one of the obitted books, or perhaps it is from one of the books found in the dead seas colls, that when he was a young shilc, Jeses pushed one of his playmates off a roof and killed him, then restored him to life. The church does not officially recognize this text and while scholars acknowledge that the esxt is of the right age, they cannot agree on whether the text depicts actual events, or is just a tale told as some sort of a moral lesson.

** I heard somewhere that when jesus was a boy he killed someone? Is that true? **
The Bible Luke 19:24 - 28:
"Then he said to those standing by, 'Take his mina(money) away from him and give it to the one who has ten minas.' " 'Sir,' they said, 'he already has ten!' "He replied, 'I tell you that to everyone who has, more will be given, but as for the one who has nothing, even what he has will be taken away. But those enemies of mine who did not want me to be king over them bring them here and kill them in front of me.’ ”After Jesus had said this, he went on ahead, up to Jerusalem.
The Infancy Gospel of Thomas
Estimated date range 140-170 C.E.
English translation by Andrew Bernhard
Chapter 3: 1- 4
The son of Annas the scribe was standing there with Jesus. Taking a branch from a willow tree, he dispersed the waters which Jesus had gathered.When Jesus saw what had happened, he became angry and said to him, "You godless, brainless moron, what did the ponds and waters do to you? Watch this now: you are going to dry up like a tree and you will never produce leaves or roots or fruit." And immediately, this child withered up completely. Then, Jesus departed and returned to Joseph's house.The parents of the one who had been withered up, however, wailed for their young child
as they took his remains away. Then, they went to Joseph and accused him, "You are responsible for the child who did this."
Whether it's true is for you to decide.

No, it is not true. You are referring to a story that is written in the one of the so-called "Gnostic Gospels" which have been proven to have not been written by who they claim to be. They story goes that a young boy said something vicious to Jesus and the boy fell down dead on the spot.
In addition, we only have a mere handful of incomplete and inconsistent copies of.
Everyday we found more and more copies of the New Testament writings.
These heretical writings were denounced at the Council of Nicea.
The full minutes to the Council of Nicea are available online, as well as the so-called "lost books" of the Bible. Just get a copy and read it for yourself and you will know it doesn't fit.

I do not know where you heard that, but I have read the Bible many times and though I do not claim to know it 100 percent, I am sure of one thing, Jesus came to bring life. Not to kill! I think I would have remembered something like that.

This idea actually appears in one of the Gnostic gospels. But this doesn't mean that it's true. On the contrary. The gnostic gospels were written 300 years or more after the death of Christ. they are called the Gospel by Judas or the Gospel by mary Magdalene, but these people were long dead, so whatever is written in them is pure fiction

False rumor being spread to blemish the life of Jesus. The only people embracing that are Atheists. You wont see any Bible Scholars even laugh at that.

There's obviously no way of knowing for sure. It doesn't seem to be a story that's written anywhere, so it's unlikely, since Jesus was a historical figure that people wrote about. However, almost nothing was written about his life as a boy, so anything's possible.

In the bible it says that Jesus was without sin. People rejected his love, spit in his face, mocked him, beat him, made him carry his own cross and then crucified him. With all of that....he prayed and asked God to forgive them for they know not what they do. So I would say no. It's a lie.
