Think about the era and the region that Jesus lived in. Do you think that Jesus and his disciples looked Scandinavian? Give your head a shake. They were all probably all very swarthy. So now my question to you is do you worship what Jesus really looked like or do you worship a Jesus that has been painted by europeans to resemble themselves?

Jesus wan't black or white he was a jew and he looked jewish. That bit about his skin being the color of the earth wasn't talking about alabama earth, it was talking about israeli earth. No the apostles are not black to them and they don't worship a black jesus. At least that goes for the vast majority. By the way, real christians don't worship jesus, they worship god. You need to brush up on your theology.

I was just wondering if you think Jesus and the Apostles were white? I mean, they are Semitic--or middle eastern, how could they be white? The reason you see white interpretations of Christ and the disciples is because they were first painted by Europeans. I think that when people worship, they should not be bowing down to graven images, heh?

The real Jesus is not white, but he is actually of middle eastern descent which would make his skin color dark. So in reality, Jesus is really black, and anyone who tells you different would be lying, I mean just do the research. Go to www.wikipedia.org and search Jesus. You will also find out that his birthday was not really on December 25th and you will find out plenty of other things.

All Christians worship the same Jesus. It doesn't really matter what color He was. In reality, he was Jewish, so he probably had a mid-range skin tone.
I mean, if black people think Jesus might have been black that's fine, its not like we really know. Just like it doesn't matter if hispanic christians think he's hispanice looking; who's to say their wrong?
But it doesn't really matter what color he was at all; what matters is what he did. That is why we worship Him.

We worship one God. The Trinity has various Biblical help. Jesus Himself says that He and the daddy are one. The Bible also makes it sparkling that the Holy Spirit is God. God also says there there is not any god yet Him. That makes it exceptionally sparkling that there is in user-friendly words one God and he's Triune. merely because you do not recognize it it would not recommend that's no longer astounding. We no longer in user-friendly words do not want to hate others for believing in numerous gods, we are meant to love them. that would not recommend we ought to say they are correct at the same time as they don't seem to be. in case you worship the Trinity as separate gods you aren't any further worshiping the God of the Bible. Your analogy isn't even remotely an same component because the what the Trinity is. For connection with the Bible obviously pointing out that there is in user-friendly words one God see: Malachi 2:10, Romans 3:30, a million Corinthians 8:6, Ephesians 4:6, a million Timothy 2:5, James 2:19 God instructions us to in user-friendly words worship Him: Exodus 20:3, Deuteronomy 5:7 The Bible also says Jesus is God and is to be worshiped. there is one God. he's Trinity. that is clearly stated contained in the Bible. @Wha befell John 10:30 John 17:11 John 17:22 Jesus and the daddy are both God.

Yes they worship the same Jesus and are no different from anyone else and should be respected in the same way, I have worked with about all races during my career in the U.S. Army and you will not find better soldiers anywhere.They read and study the same bible and believe in the same way as anyone else.

They worship a large interplanetary being called Laetisha whose apostles are a hot East Indian lesbian, a cool hipster Italian who rides a Vespa scooter and a bisexual midget named Marv.
