Answer 1

Yes, Jesus is alive. He was crucified, layed in a tomb, and three days later they went to check on him and he was gone. There have been numerous people in the 40 days after his resurrection that saw him and gave first hand accounts. after 40 days Jesus ascended into heaven. he is still alive and is sitting at the right hand of the Father (God). When he's ready he will return to earth.

Answer 2

My dear girl, truth is relative and in the beginning it's hard to judge which truth is most relative to your own being at the present time.

But remember this, and you shall be safe. Truth involves no confusion, once you are confused know that what's keeping your mind busy doesn't make sense at all. Example, "masturbation is a sin, says the priest", but then you ask God: "Then why have you created the desire? Why is this my nature to feel hor*y?".. is it because God wants you to go against your nature? No.. because religion is wrong.

I believe in Jesus. He was a great spiritual teacher, but his teachings were unfortunately altered in 2000 years.

Answer 3

It is a fairly well-established fact that Jesus Christ was publicly executed in Judea in the 1st Century A.D., under Pontius Pilate, by means of crucifixion, at the behest of the Jewish Sanhedrin. The non-Christian historical accounts of Flavius Josephus, Cornelius Tacitus, Lucian of Samosata, Maimonides and even the Jewish Sanhedrin corroborate the early Christian eyewitness accounts of these important historical aspects of the death of Jesus Christ.

As for His resurrection, there are several lines of evidence which make for a compelling case. The late jurisprudential prodigy and international statesman Sir Lionel Luckhoo (of The Guinness Book of World Records fame for his unprecedented 245 consecutive defense murder trial acquittals) epitomized Christian enthusiasm and confidence in the strength of the case for the resurrection when he wrote, “I have spent more than 42 years as a defense trial lawyer appearing in many parts of the world and am still in active practice. I have been fortunate to secure a number of successes in jury trials and I say unequivocally the evidence for the Resurrection of Jesus Christ is so overwhelming that it compels acceptance by proof which leaves absolutely no room for doubt.”

Answer 4

Yes, just like Harry Potter and Frodo are alive in the hearts and minds of millions, so is Jesus...

Answer 5

I think the whole idea, is that he`s alive in your heart. You`re not going to physically find him, but you could " find him" in any situation. He`s alive if you believe him to be. I`m not a big church-goer, my mom dragged us in there 4 or 5 times a week, when I was a kid, but I`m still a believer. You can worship in any way that you want.

Answer 6

Only the body Jesus used suffered death.

Jesus is the physical aspect of God, the "Son".

When God acted as creator of the universe and everything in it (including the body used to be Jesus), he was acting as the "Father"

The spiritual force which God uses to accomplish His will is referred to as His "Holy Spirit"

These 3 entities are merely different expressions of the same universal being. They are not 3 gods, but the 3 forms of God which we are all familiar in one way or another.

Answer 7

Yes. Jesus is alive. Jesus died but rose from the dead and ascended back to Heaven. Jesus is with God the Father, and God the Holy Spirit. Read the Bible...Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. You will see that Jesus was alive did ant taught many, many good things. It shows that Jesus died but rose from the dead, defeated death, death could not hold Him. and later, ascended (alive) back into Heaven. Jesus is very alive, very well, and will be forever.

Answer 8

"Before answering your question, know that Prophet Issa Ibn Maryam (Alaihi Salaam) was neither crucified nor killed. The one who was killed was a man who looked like him. Allah Says (interpretation of meaning): {….but they killed him not, nor crucified him, but the resemblance of 'Iesa (Jesus) was put over another man (and they killed that man), and those who differ therein are full of doubts. They have no (certain) knowledge, they follow nothing but conjecture. For surely; they killed him not [i.e. 'Iesa (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary)]: But Allâh raised him ['Iesa (Jesus)] up (with his body and soul) unto Himself (and he is in the heavens)….}[4:157-158].

As for the “holy light” it is a pure lie that ridicules the naïve ones.

Even if you suppose that it is true, Allah, sometimes make some of those who do not believe in Him do something extraordinary, or undergo some unbelievable event to make them disbelieve even more and to try those who believe in Him to see such extraordinary events. The Antichrist (Dajjal) will say to the sky rain, and it will rain and to the land grow and it will grow. There are many magicians and charlatans who do many extraordinary things that are trials for those who see them."

Answer 9

Yes he is alive, but not on earth for he is in heaven. But the holy spirit is alive in all the hearts who believe in Jesus.

Answer 10

Sorry, he's long dead; you missed him by almost 2000 years. But there are still a lot of people worth knowing who are alive today.

Nobody can prove any gods, much less a specific god, exist; many people will tell you their god exists but no others, but will never be able to prove it, even if they think so. Some will threaten you with eternal pain or promise eternal joy to get you to believe in their god; these are all stories, created for people who were scared long before we understood the universe. Now we have no more reason for these superstitions.
