Question

Does anybody know about a group that believes this?

ojos azul claro: This is totally off topic, but your avatar info says you want to learn Spanish. Your nouns and adjectives always have to agree, so ojos (which is plural) azules claros (adjectives plural, too). See what I mean? Good luck.

Answer 1

Jesus' own words disprove this theory.

Matthew 15:24 But He answered and said, “I was not sent except to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.”

The reason for this may be found at Jeremiah 31:31-34: the New Covenant was to be made between God and the Jews. (This is also the reason why Paul writes that the Gospel is for the JEW FIRST and then for the Gentile or Greek). If Jesus had left Israel to preach the Gospel, He would have been disobedient to His Father.

There are extensive exegetical problems with the notion that Jesus didn't die as the result of His willing sacrifice, as pre-figured by the Levitical sacrificial system. Anyone who believes Jesus didn't die in the manner relayed by the Gospels doesn't understand prophecy or the Mosaic Law.

And, quite frankly, if Jesus didn't die the way the Apostles said He did, but instead died later, then Christianity is a fraud.

Answer 2

Whoever told you that apparently hasnt either read the bible or has the wrong one. They also apparently pay no attention to history. He died outside jerusalem. when they took him down from the cross he was about as dead as dead could get. they wrapped him up and stuck him in a tomb and covered it with a huge stone. The tomb was guarded by roman soldiers.
He arose from the dead a few days later - then went back home to heaven, and has been alive ever since.

Jesus loves france i am sure, but i dont think he's ever been there :)

Answer 3

There are many theories about it. The one you're talking about was used as a base for the bock "The DaVinci Code". Many think its just the imagination of the author, but is not, there is whole theory about everything the DaVince Code expose. There is another about Jesus traveling to Tibet and living for a while with monks and the monks say they have writings to prove it.

Answer 4

The Holy Blood & Holy Grail book goes in to this in detail, as well as him supposedly dying in India theory. It was something that the knights templer were investigating in the 13th/14th century.
The Da Vinci Code was copied/stolen/pirated from the Holy Blood & Holy Grail book which came out 20 years or so beforehand. And HB&HG is more informative, logical and better researched.

Answer 5

Well, it's not the same group, but there is a significant number of nationalist wackos here in the UK that belive he visited England. Have you ever sung the hymn Jeruselem - it's about the 'event'.

Apparently they belive that during the gap (biblical) between his childhood and adulthood was spent travelling the world, so surely he visited the UK because it's so pretty - Okay whatever you think...

Answer 6

All the popular famous dead people died in Paris, just like Jim Morrison.

Answer 7

From what I understood Mary Magdeline had to flee as a politcal enemy (Which they all were) and that she died there. BUT there is also evidence that she died in Jerusalem along with thier child. Jesus most likely died on the cross for heresay and was a pretty big political problem.

Answer 8

Its an historic Celtic party from the British Isles (Britain and eire) The pagan Celtic Britons and Irish celebrated their new year on a million Novermber (time-honored as "Samhain"). On thirty first October - the final day of the "previous" year they beleived that the veil between this international and the subsequent grow to be drawn aside, magical forces abounded and the lifeless walked with the residing. It grow to be a time to venerate the ancestors and have fun the recent year, and the passing of the previous, mild bonfires, tell fortunes, gown in animal skins, slaughter the livestock for the winter. there have been community changes in the way it grow to be celebrated even though it grow to be quite a smiliar party everywhere in the British Isles. The Christians replaced Samhain to All Hallows Day - an afternoon to undergo in ideas the saints and one's lifeless kin. however the persons nevertheless celebrated the night earlier - All Hallow's Eve or Hallowe'en - as a night whilst the "undesirable" spirits got here out to play and magic and goblins have been out and approximately. there have been many diverse techniques of celebrating. they might gown up and bypass "guising" (comparable to trick or manage), carve lanterns out of turnips and swedes, play video games, mild bonfires, bob for apples etc. Hallowe'en oftentimes fell out of favour with the Christians although and died down very lots in Britain a minimum of in spite of if I beleive it carried on in some form in eire lots longer. The emigrants who went to usa took it with them - they substitued pumpkins for turnips, replaced guising into trick or manage and made lots greater of the competition. Its now been "re-bought" back accross the Atlantic and on the instant has a tendency to be celebrated here interior the united kingdom in an quite American form - all Pumpkins, trick or manage, events etc in spite of if its nowhere close to as super in Britain as that's in usa. i think of the branch shops merely realised it grow to be a money maker they have been lacking out on.

Answer 9

Yes he did.

See:

Actually he was murdered. Beheaded by arguably the most evil person to ever walk the face of the earth- Paul of Tarsus.

WWJT- What would Jesus Think?

Jesus founded the Nazarenes, not the christians
See:
http://one-faith-of-god.org/new_testament/apocrypha/nazarenes/nazarenes_0010.htm

Jesus would probably hope that after 2000 years the truth was finally revealed. How would you feel if a religion was established in your name that still hides the truth from those that worship you?

Answer 10

Yes, they are all housed at St Cecilia's Home for the Rather Silly, in Rouen.
