Muslims declare that the book of revelation describes Jesus as being black for having hair like wool and tanned feet like brass

of course i had a dream where i was calling upon the name of jesus and a man appeared, his description is that he was caucasion and with a brown beard. The one thing I dont know is that it was Jesus I saw, or even a similitude. but He did show up in the dream as i was calling His name. For all i know it was an angel that came to Harvest souls. Which is it?

muslims dont fall on their face to pray, they kneel and bow down, there are still some wester religions that practice prostration FLAT on the ground that do pray. But generally correct prayer is on bended knee

How can anyone be not biased in answering this question? muslims say he was black, others say middle eastern were always dark skinned. only a few say he was blond and blue eyed.
The dream i had was not proof i saw what jesus looked like, but i did see a brown hair and caucasion, even if it was only an angel reaping the harvest of souls.

He had red hair, same as his mother, and essentially a white toned skin with greenish gray eyes.

Jesus was born in the line of David, so we should expect Him to look somewhat like those ancestors. That said, He was not technically genetically related to Mary. Rather, Jesus was "second Adam," that is, the second (and last) time God created a body from nothing for a specific purpose. Revelation 1 gives the only physical description of Jesus that we have and everyone ignores it. Go figure.

Jesus was Hebrew so his skin would be on the darker side, maybe olive. He would have had dark hair and possibly a beard. Dark eyes most likely.

Eastern icons portray Him in this manner, as does some Western art, but not as much.

"He was not comely that we would look upon Him.....A man of sorrows, acquainted with grief."

God bless you.

He wasn't white I think he looked middle eastern that was where he was born. Using methods similar to those police have developed to solve crimes, British scientists, assisted by Israeli archeologists, have re-created what they believe is the most accurate image. Check link if he was white or black they would of definately mentioned it in the bible so it makes since that he looked like everyone else.

Jesus was a Jew in Palestine, the Bible does not say but chances are He was tan brown eyed and brown hair. But then what does it matter, This is all pigmentation, we all look alike inside and that is where Christ does his best work from the inside out.

the Bible states that he would not have had long hair since that was a "degrading" to a man. Other than that, there'snothing to describe him except the bit in Revalation that says he has broncze feet and hair like white wool.

Geographically the majority of the Bible took place in east africa, so why would he be caucasian. Plus, i cant think of any other white man in history that spoke about what Jesus spoke about. But there are plenty of African leaders or Asian leaders that spoke so peacefully

I think maybe you should stop falling asleep with the Trinity Broadcasting Network still on.

As far as how Christ appeared... let's just put it this way. He would sure have a hard time getting through the airport nowadays.

i think Jesus (peace be upon him) was middle easterner.

“Jesus…fell on his face and prayed…” (Matthew 26:39).

as middle eastenern and Muslims we fall to the ground in prayer as well
