if a man sees a vision of jesus christ does this not prove that some christians believe in false doctrine?

Question

Abraham declared that God and two angels visited him. Does this prove tha tGod can be seen by men who called the friends of God? abraham believed that it was God and abraham also debated with HIM about the destruction of Sodom and Gomorah. The two angels that were with God went to Lott and saved him from the destruction of sodom. God was so real to the scriptures that abraham had Sarah prepare a meal for Them all. A trinity God does not eat food! but i admit that it also says in another place that they were all 3 angels! not God. even still a meal was prepared and angels and God ate the meal.
Later Jesus declared a promise to them that were obedient that God himself would visit a believer and eat dinner with them. He also added the He himself, Jesus, would come alone and eat dinner with those that are His freinds and obedient.
To me this is enough proof that God was present with abraham, and that two of them were angels and one was God.

You said: Yes some christians do believe in false doctrine .. no one can see christ in vision............ its all imagination

I reply: it may be partially coorect, it may be that you believe a false doctrine in speaking these words.

the movie the matrix obviously proved that the mind can be altered. but God has appeared to a few through out history. and Jesus has been alleged to appear to more than 500 people just in the bible alone.
I dont think you know what you are talking about in this aspect. I truly am not without experience in the false imaginations and false halucinations.
but when jesus or an angel truly appears to a person They know it, and cannot deny, but if they do deny it, it is because they believe the words of false teachers.

many believe that having a vision is proof of mental illness. but calling abraham a mentally ill person might offend all jews, Prophets that saw visions and heard the voice of God, were Jewish this might alos offend Jews. but if you tell a muslim that mohamed was mentally ill, they might shoot you. or blow you up.
in any extreme calling me mentally ill whether it is intended or not should have all your accounts deleted, it is very offensive to me.

Answer 1

yes

Answer 2

If a man says he has seen Jesus, the shallow human question from another man to ask is, "What color was he?"

Jesus was short, dark and had an under developed beard or was he a women with breast implants and red hair.

The bible in itself can be used as false doctrine or propaganda. It has been revised and interpreted to suit mans purposes. Can you say, "Manifest Destiny?"

It justified slavery in Rome, America, Mexico, Asia just to name a few and today in america it justifies everything our government does when it wants to get something done. Even though church and state are suppose to be seperate. Wanna ban smoking? Pull out the bible and say its hurting our kids, get all the churchs to rally behind you and now you increase taxes which have put more money in the governments pocket and little none back to our kids.

Answer 3

Peace be with you.

Read the bible for truth, use the Word of God as a measuring stick.
In the bible where have you heard of men seeing visions, what happen to them prior to a vision taking place?

Now when women have a vision, do they fall on their face as dead, or see the vision while they sleep as men do?
Angel just appears to women, right?

Therefore the answer is false doctrine? So it is up to you to find out why, and then apply what you have learned to all scripture.

The verse "remember Mary for she anointed Jesus at the hour of his death" is another clue. The 4 Gospels are full of clues as to the truth.

Answer 4

VISIONS LIE!

Look at all the drug-induced visions in history that almost destroyed humanity:

1. The vision of Paul on the road to Damascus(Christianity)
2. The LSD visions of St. John on Patmos (Christianity)
3. The schizophrenic visions of Mohammad (Islam)
4. The schizophrenic visions of Joseph Smith (Mormons)
5. The delusional vision of Moses (BurningBush) (Judaism)
6. The stress-induced, fantastic visions of Buddha (Buddha)
7. The many visions of the Virgin Mary (Catholicism)
8. The megalomaniacal visions of Jesse DuPlantis (Charismatic)

What would religion be without visions?

Answer 5

That christians believe in false doctrine is a given -- all christian sects have dogma that is demonstrably provable false. It doesn't require any "vision" to confirm that.

If a man sees a vision of jesus christ...he's got some serious mental illness. Get him some medical attention. Since there's no such thing as god, and jesus (if he ever lived) died a very long time ago, anyone that "sees" him is having hallucinations.

Peace.

Answer 6

Why do you think that Angels do not eat food?
Mannah was provided to the Hebrews who left Egypt, remember? It was Angelic food; food that sustains the spiritual body. Nothing weird about that;
Your comments simply don't work at all toward what you hope to accomplish with them;
But what the heck: hey, do you know what the word "mannah" means? It means "whats that?"

Answer 7

No, because Jesus appeared to Saul in the road, and this doesn't change anything, it is how people take that apparition and try to turn into something of personal gain, Saul who changed his name to Paul, did not use it for personal gain and in fact was killed in the end because of it. But others have made statements that they have had a vision of Christ and then changed their aspect of what religion is for their own gain. God bless you always.

Answer 8

Can you elaborate on why this would prove belief in false doctrine? It's hard to answer a question that doesn't follow through with the train of thought.

Answer 9

Not really. How did he know that who he saw was Jesus? What was the proof? And was the man that had the vision on street drugs or even prescription drugs? Was the man dreaming?

Answer 10

How can this proove anything man, how do you know that you see jesus and not someone else. It doenst proove anything may the fact that you are thinking about jesus. Why not actually read some of the things he preaced and see for your self wether it is false or true

Answer 11

Having religious visions is also a sign common in mental institutions.
