What did Jesus do in his late teens and early twenties?

Question

As there is no record of what Jesus got up to during his late teens and early twenties... Do you think he was out partying with the boys and getting the local virgins pregnant? Or was he being Pious in his room?

Jesus M: Why do you always hate anyone who asks a question about the history and validity of Jesus (and you hate all Catholics - I've read your questions and answers as well - two can play at that game monkey boy) by saying bad words against them. Have they done wrong against your person? If you do not agree with them, how about remaining silent and sleep forever.

Answer 1

It is a movie begging to be made: Jesus The Teen Years. Maybe many movies; the docu-drama; the comedy; the History channel speculative piece...

Seriously, by late teens and early twenties - he was relatively older than those ages are now. The distinction between teen and adult is a relatively contemporary one.

Answer 2

I read that he was a learned individual. Studied under the Buddist religion and traveled. Also was interested in his mothers religion (Jesuit?) Studied astronomy and used stars and earth to guide him. Isn't it interest in that supposing that this shows up in his birth story?

On the radio one day I was hearing the DJ discussing the birth of Jesus. He was mentioning the three kings. After alittle research (yeah, right) on his part he discovered that the three kings were actually Magi. STarts in on his speel about how sinners showed up at Jesus's crib.

I started to put some pieces together.

What were the Magi doing at Jesus's crib? (disregarding the sinners part).

Sins of the old testiment, were used to locate Jesus in the new and no one seems to notice what this actually may signify)?

Was this a planned pregnancy on Mary's part?

How much did she affect those early years? The years you don't hear about.


How can a man with that much power have sat around living a narrow margin of life? He was apparently articulate and educated. Comfortable with who he was and rather mystical to those around him. Or do you gain all that being a couch potato and sanding wood?

You have to work for WHO you are.

Answer 3

The Bible says that "he grew in stature and wisdom with God and man" so I take it to mean he probably recieved however much education was available at the time, Hebrew school or whatever. Joseph was a carpenter so he probably learned that trade and helped out in the shop like all kids at that time.
He was God's Son, so he probably was what you have called "pious" (ie religious, decent, law-abiding) but he didn't stay in his room to do it. He probably related to his neighbours and friends like a normal person, but with a bit of a difference.
People were suprised when he spoke in the synagogue and announced his ministry's beginning, so he probably seemed like a nice, normal guy who was helpful and kind, but nothing out of the ordinary.

Answer 4

Read Luke 2:46-49.Even at the age of twelve years old he was doing his will.

JESUS was without sin. If u read the bible u would have understand him better than the sad stuff u asked.He was a carpenter.JESUS is not like us to lust after woman.He is more greater than anyone the world has every produced.

Infact this very moment he loves u and wants to be with you and show u the truth.

GOD loves u so much that he sent his son JESUS to die for u to reconcile u back.

John 3:16 says "For GOD so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son that whoso ever believeth in him should not perish but have everlasting life".Ask JESUS to come into your heart and forgive ur sins and cleanse ur past with his blood.

With a simple prayer like above u can be saved.

Answer 5

I believe the movie Teen Wolf was based on Jesus's life during his lost years.
Except set in the 80's.
Oh and that whole werewolf thing was just to get the kids interested.

Answer 6

a million.Jesus did no longer write something himself, yet others did. there are various figures in history who have no self-written checklist of their doings. Jesus isn't unique in this. 2.we've no contemporary written checklist of the a number of Kings of england; nevertheless we've some thought that they did exist. different info factors to assist the oral custom. as a techniques simply by fact the teenager years of Christ, some greater-biblical writings do describe those years. 3. The transcription technique isn't what ends up in distinctive "variations" of the gospels. Transcribers purely copied what replaced into given them; any errors resulted contained in the great rfile being destroyed. This replaced right into a sacred activity, and not something replaced into extra or deleted contained in the technique. Transcribers weren't editors or writers. distinctive "variations" would have come from distinctive stages of completeness of the chanced on rfile fragments, or distinctive factors, yet this is not any longer ascribed to transcription errors. 5. the assumption of notion is an invention of the church. as a fashion to declare the perfect authority of the Bible, it had to be initially inspired, translated with notion, the canon chosen with notion, and a few bypass so a techniques as to declare that readers would desire to be inspired with the Holy Spirit. there is plenty war of words in this section, with some purely claiming that the unique documents have been inspired. In any adventure, i'm no longer a Christian, yet i've got studied it extremely.

Answer 7

Yes, you are right.

And you certainly won't get fanatical christians or apologists/spin artists talking openly about it either. If cornered, the standard response is he was basically learning to be a carpenter, like is "step father".

In contrast, there remains long standing, I mean almost 2,000 year old persistent beliefs in India, in Egypt and in England (Glastonbury) that Jesus visited these places.

Now for Christians, even such suggestions seem ridiculous and worthy of negative points. For what would a carpenter's son be doing wandering around Asia?

This is the absurdity of the fabrication of the true life of Jesus by Paul of Tarsus, the High Priests who helped form christianity and hide the truth from the world.

Nazareth wasn't just a town- it was a community "Nazara"- meaning truth. Jesus wasn't called Jesus of Nazareth, he was Jesus the Nazarene- the truth bringer, the co-founder of the Nazarene movement with his father. See:
http://one-faith-of-god.org/new_testament/apocrypha/nazarenes/nazarenes_0010.htm

And Jesus wasn't just the son of some poor builder- he was the Messiah! Remember? In jewish law, only a legitimate heir to the bloodline of the Kings of Judah could be called a Messiah- all the Kings of Jerusalem from David onwards were "messiahs".

While Paul of Tarsus in writing his ficticious stories saw fit to make christians ignorant of these facts, just ask any learned person of the Jewish law and he will tell you to the truth of this.

But Jesus was much more- much, much more than simply the heir to the House of Judah- he was of the blood of the oldest and most powerful spiritual bloodlines of human history- that first formed religion, that first brought the concept of "God" to humanity, that had helped humanity over thousands of years.
See:
http://one-faith-of-god.org/new_testament/apocrypha/jesus_family/jesus_family_0010.htm

This is where he spent much time.

And the greatest sadness of the christian faith created by Paul of Tarsus is that contrary to showing the true heritage of jesus, he belittled his heritage, so that people who claim to believe and know Jesus think of him in simplistic terms- ignorant, willingly and blindingly ignorant of the truth.

Answer 8

He was living the normal life of a teenages. Getting up to no good, meeting nice girls......normal stuff that normal people did in that era. Because as most people seem to forget he was a NORMAL human with normal human needs.

Dont get me wrong from what he did later in life was extraordinary and he was very gifted. Theres no record of what he did then coz he ws being a normal young man of the time and probalby got married and had 6 kids.

Answer 9

Well considering he free from sin, I would think he was being pious...I don't know that it was "in his room" though.

I'm sure he was growing, playing, working...and keeping the 10 commandments.

Answer 10

Why do you always hate Jesus by saying bad words against him. Have he done wrong against your person? If you do not believe Him, how about remaining silent and sleep well.
