Why didn't Jesus fly around the world like peter pan???
Why didn't he write down his teachings and give them out all over the world?
So this way people in distant lands would ALL get his message at the same time. Everyone one knows that flying is a better method of travel then walking on water.

Your question brings up a good point.
First of all Jesus wasn't magic and he couldn't fly OR walk on water. That was just drunk people imaging they saw things.
BUT THE REAL POINT HERE THAT YOU DON'T REALIZE YOU MADE IS THAT
IF ALL OF THIS WERE TRUE, THERE WOULD ONLY BE ONE RELIGION BECAUSE IT COULD HAVE ONLY HAPPENED ONE WAY. THAT IS WHY WE HAVE HOLY WARS BECAUSE NONE OF THES STUPID PEOPLE CAN AGREE ONT THE, AND I'LL SAY IT AGAIN, ONE WAY THAT IT ONLY COULD HAVE HAPPENED!!
Now I know that you "christians" will e-mail me and I welcome it because I LOVE hearing your double speak around these issues. I have friends that are religious and they totally understand it.

I think he didn't show his complete power.He could have walked away.But he rather spend 3 days in hell.Then one day without you.
Besides he wanted the human experience.What was it really like to be a little kid.After running the universe.To play kick ball.To freak out over candy.To have his mommy take care of him.The hard part was the teen years.Could you imagine having a sexual drive.An can't do anything about it,paedophilia.He must have been so lonely.
Why didn't he tell people in other lands?That is what gave us to do.Here is the interesting part.They weren't ready to hear the word.BUT by the time we got there,they were.In his perfect time,not ours.

Jeus is going to be visible to ALL the world when he returns. There was no reason to do the things you described. Jesus had a mission and a prophecy to fullfill and he did it. It was Gods will that Jesus' teachings live on with the apostles, the church, and Scripture.
BTW, Jesus did fly when he left the earth! (the ascension)

"Why didn't he write down his teachings and give them out all over the world?"
Because at the time, his followers were all illiterate peasants. Only a very few knew how to read, and fewer still could write. That goes for everyone in the world. Until the 20th century, only the educated could read and write and only the rich were educated.

Would that really have made a difference to you or other doubters? He brought the dead back to life, made blind men see, turned water into wine, healed lepers, made lame men walk again AND walked on water yet people still doubted and killed Him. What good would flying do? Why isn't His Word and the words of witnesses and history good enough for you? There is such a thing as faith and some people just don't understand.
May God Bless you.

He had to come to earth as a man so He could die for your sins. He is not flying around He is in the third heaven the Holy Spirit is in all those that have trusted in what He done for us. If you reject what He did then you will see Him at the White Throne Judgment before you are cast into the lake of fire.

It is the same way or message (if you recall) in the bible when one of his deciples has some troubles and doubted him. Then jesus ask, walk on the surface of the water to reach for him. If you read the passage in the bible you know what happen.
From here on what should we think, believe about jesus?
I guest it is all up to us.?
are we going to sink and die if Jesus is in front of us and ask us to walk on the water to reach for him?

What is the use of your believing Him like a child laughing with believing in Peter Pan?
His intention is for beings who use their rational sense to read the Word of God and do His Will for the progress of their souls.

He did not need to fly around. All he needed was some students to spread His word after His death.
