If I disagreed with Jesus, it would only prove my arrogance.

I always agree with Jesus. Jesus did not condone slavery.

I have no disagreement with any of the bible what so ever. Jesus not only spoke in the New Testament , but in the Old Testament as well. And not all that Jesus taught is in the bible so then we also have sacred tradition passed on from Jesus thru the Apostles.

NOT "agree" with? none

As for slavery, mankind did that, NOT Jesus.. yes, He DID speak to those whom were servants and/or slaves, as well as speaking to the "masters and/or employers"....Through His teachings, and the convictions of them upon the hearts of many, I believe that many slaves were freed... However, as stated before, slavery was of man's laws, and only man could be blamed for that, NOT Jesus.

Peace be with you :)

None. If I don't think I agree, I study it more and by the time I'm done, I usually understand it really well and agree. Since the teachings of Jesus are the teachings of God, I agree.

Geezah your answer looks really ignorant or sarcastic.

I agree with all of his teachings and everything in the bible.

2 Timothy 3:16
All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness,

This question always cracks me up. Its like your trying to say God isn't perfect and I as a human know whats best for the world.
Eric do the world a favor and speak only what you know of. The Gospels are different because it was 4 different eyewitness accounts. Also if the Disciples rewrote what Yeshua said then all the Gospels would not have agreed upon what he did say.

I do not agree that Jesus cursed a Fig tree because it did not bear fruit for him that morning.
I do not agree that if someone strikes your left cheek you are to turn your right cheek to him also
Jesus did less teachings and more story telling during his days.

Geez, where to begin...

"Turn the other cheek" for starters. I'm not a masochist who's just going to let people walk all over me.

Self-mutilation as a way to punish yourself for lust (take out your eye, chop of your hand, etc.). Do I even have to explain this one? Who actually believes this is a good idea, to pluck out your eyeball if you see somebody who turns you on?

That whole fig tree incident doesn't make any sense either.

He says nobody can ever remarry, to give away all of your money, that crippled people are crippled because of sin, and so many other things that I just find completely absurd. I can't think of one admirable thing about this character.

Who can tell WHAT Jesus taught? His disciples re-wrote so much of what he said to reflect the current political situation, it's pretty tough to decipher what can only be described as second-hand reports.

Why do you think the four gospels are so radically different?
