I'd have to ask him why the "prince of peace" and "turn the other cheek" took a whip to some moneychangers.

If "Jeus" told me that, I'd respond that you are not the messiah, or a prophet of God. I know that because the Torah says no prophet will change the Torah, which he did. He changed the Torah, thus proving beyond any argument that he was not a prophet.
If "Jeus" threatened me with eternal damnation for doing something that was none of anyone's business...I'd tell him he was a crazed judgemental, evil, entity.
If I stuck a gun to your head, and told you to stop being a heterosexual or I'd pistol whip you for the rest of your life....would you love me? Would you respect me? Why is "Jeus" different?

Maybe.
To turn the question around, what if Jesus came to you and told you you had to live the rest of your life as homosexual and have premarital sex with people of your own gender, otherwise you will go to hell, would you?
Don't say "Jesus would never say that" "or "that would be satan pretending to be Jesus". Real Jesus, really happening...

If I were doing one of the above and Jesus said to stop (which BTW he has commanded us to stay away from sexual sin and not to lie, etc.) I would. However, I'm not doing the above things because the living God has commanded us not too.

None of those changes would get you into heaven. You also have to truly feel that you were in the wrong, then appologize to Jesus and God and ask that Jesus forgive you for your sins. .Unless you truly feel that you were wrong your appology is meaningless. So changing to get to heaven doesnt cut it, you'd still go to hell.

If Jesus was standing before you and said, "now you will be judged by the same judgment you mete out." OR ...depart from me ye worker of iniquity, for I never knew you....

If I knew it was the "actual Jesus", then I'd do whatever he said to avoid Hell. Fortunately there is no way I could know that, and there's no god.

Jesus has stood in front of many, through his Christians, and told them that. NO, they will not listen.
