This is your chance.
But I have one question I need a logical answer to.
If Jesus was God incarnate, doesnt that mean God has a preference?
That he likes to look like a man?

Dear Lost no man can save you only God can reveal the truth to you. We as Chrisitans can show you the truth but only God can make it real to you and only he can convert or save you.Christ came to the world in human form in humility and humbleness as you can see if you read the Bible. Christ came to the world not boasting of being God but to do the will of the Father in heaven to bring his people back to righteouness with him. Christ came to this world to do what no man could and that is to bring sinful man back to a righteous God. God could not be joined to sin. In as much as Allah says sin is forgiven, he would have to be in agreement with sin and no longer righteous...consider this If God is righteous could he say that which is not holy is holy or that which is unrighteous righteous? God had a plan for his creation and that plan involved paying the penalty for man. This plan was before the creation of the world...If you study the words of the prophets from the begining of scripture you will find that it is the true word of God and that Moses and Abraham and Isaiah and all the prophets of God were in agreement and the Messiah that was to come was to come was to atone for sin. Isaiah said that the Messiah would be born of a virgin in the house of David and that this Messiah would atone for sin his prophesy was 800 years before the birth of Christ who did fufill all of the prophsies of all of the prophets. If the word of God was corrupt before Christ would we not have received that information when he came would he have attempted to fufill the prophesies of corrupt scripture? Go back to the first book of Moses and read how man was created in the image of God and what that image was ...In Genesis 1 God said let us create man in our image...In Genisis 2 God told how he created man ..He formed him from the dirt and he breathed into him a spirit and the two became a living soul...This is the image of God that man is body and spirit and te two make one living soul...Without this spirit man is the same as the animals and perishs with his flesh...If you continue to study this book of Genisis you will see that They Adam and Eve were place in the Garden of Eden and in the middle of this Garden were two trees and God warned Adam do not eat of the tree of knowledfe of good and evil and do not touch it because in that day you eat of it you will surely die....Satan lied and said you will not surely die...this was the first lie of Satan that God would not demand their life but it was against what God had told them and the fact is sin causes death...remember also \there is another tree in the midst of the garden this tree is the tree of life..If hey eat of this tree thay would live forever....Consider these two trees for a moment becasue thay are God's plan for man and thay are the two natures of God his righteousness and his mercy...Gods righteousness which is represented by the tree of knowledge of good and evil could also represent the law...Man could not live up to the law and God warned on the day you eat of ti you will surely die...becasue God knew that man could not live up to the law he had a plan for him and the other tree represented that plan of mercy...the tree of life also represents Jesus who would come to the world to atone for sin this was the first scripture man was given by God and it foretold of the fall of man and the coming of salvation this was 1500 years before the birth of Christ...I'm not sure if you are serious but I do hope and pray that you will seek God through his word and see that it is his word and it is his plan for us that none should perish but that we would realize our need for him and receive his gift of life through Jesus Christ our lord. May God bless you!

No one has the power to convert anyone who does not want to be converted. Becoming a true Christian involves first a hunger for knowledge, wisdom and to know and serve the true God.
It involves humility. A willingness to learn because you recognize there are things you do not know and even some of your closely held beliefs may be in error. That's where honesty comes in. You must honestly admit to yourself that you are in error when you see that you are.
As far as a logical answer to your question here it is: Jesus was not God incarnate. He was the son of God. (Matthew 27:43) No human can possibly know what God looks like since he is a spirit.(John4:24) As to preferences the Bible states that "God is not partial" (Acts 10:34)

He sent Jesus as a human because He wanted to show us how much love he really has for us. Jesus is all about love that's why it's a great way of life. If Jesus didn't become human, He couldn't die for us. He also became human to let us know that He has been through all that suffering. Rejection, loneliness, sadness, all those feelings. He became human so we can relate to Him. He wants to be our best friend. Also, if God sent Jesus as an animal, well who would listen to it? IT might even scare the people back then. He became human, had been through all the hardships, when He died He rose up again and because of that Resurrection, we can be saved just by simply accepting Him. I hope you consider it, Christianity has a lot of love when you meet the right people!:D God Bless you and go wherever you find peace.:)

No one can convert you to Christianity, Only God can do that, & Jesus Was the Son of God, When Jesus was baptized then the spirit of God dwell in Jesus without measure, which means all that God is, is now in his Son, But that did not void the universe of God since God is everywhere, It was the Son of God that died & not God.

No. That is not the premises God wants. God the father sent his only begotten Son Jesus that who ever believes in him shall not perish but have everlastinglife. Jesus is the image of the Father as to being compassionate , understanding,patient to teach us. God has no preference but he loves those who obey him for salvation. The Bible did describe must of the physical feature of Jesus Christ. whatisimportant is his message.

im no christian, but instead of conversion, how bout some s...
ok, i shouldnt have said that. i have no idea who you are. lol
i just thought it d be funny to answer this way.
honestly though I think that Jesus was not God, that instead he was just a spirit in a body, that was more mature and honest and fearless then most.
And that the world continues to kill off people that have those same dear spirits.

opening a can of worms here, but why not think on becoming versed in many religions. who is to say either muslim or christianity is correct. (the muslims and christians of course) ah I risk being called intolerant here but, I think it is best to broaden ones mind beyond the scope of just two religions.
Best wishes in your search for knowledge.
