Is the Christian church representative of his intentions and teachings?
Do you think Jesus would have said or done anything differently as described in the New Testament, knowing back then how humans would interpret the scriptures over the next 2000 years?
What do you think he might want to go back and change or clarify a bit?

No, I think the Bible is exactly as it should be, people just don't seem to follow really what is quite simple. I think it was made very clear what was expected of us. It's up to us though to pull through. I mean, Goodness He forgives us every time we fall. I think we can always improve our practice, but He knows we are not perfect. After all, He died for our sins.

Jesus is now fully here in Spirit worldwide; continually leading all God-seekers of all faiths into All Truth !
The Bibles are only a tiny record of the real Life and Teachings of Jesus Christ. For example, therein is no record at all of what Jesus did and said from his Incarnate ages 12-30. Thus we must follow Jesus here now in Spirit ! Listen to what the Spirit of God says -- and obey.
In the ETERNAL NOW, there is no past to go back to. The Absolute of time is Eternity.
Jesus did not FOUND the Christian church; many believers did that over the last 2000 years. He does FOSTER the more spiritual Christian churches and ALL individual human sons of God, in or out of churches. Just AS and just WHERE you, Dear Reader, now are !
Present day Christianity today DOES contain evough True Teachings of Jesus to immortalize it. It is slowly learning ever more Truth -- WHO IS JESUS OUR LOVING CREATOR FATHER-SON GOD-MAN HERE IN SPIRIT ! (John 16:7-16)
GOALS, not mere CREEDS, will help unite all sincere Christians in Jesus Christ.
Peace and progress,

He is the Good Shepherd and His flock know Him.
The Roman Catholic Church is what He instituted on earth. Being True God and True Man, Jesus knew everything and everyone from beginning to end. He did what He did in full awareness of His Creation in His chosen time!
The obdurate - proud sons of Adam change their opinion of Him and His teachings, while in exile, according to their whims and fancies, thereby becoming heretics.
Human beings fail to understand that following Christ is to take up your cross and follow Him; just the way His Mother did, just the way the Saints did and those among us now do.
Contemplate this :
No Pain - No Gain
No Cross - No Crown

My guess is he'd be happy with parts you don't like, but he'd obviously see room for improvement as well. He knew before he came to earth how humans would interpret the scriptures, so I don't think there's much chance that he would have said anything differently.

I do not think He would change anything from what He said then. He knew what was coming for all of the 2000 years, and He knew that the world would change, but that values don't. I believe He would rely on the values!

No, the world destroys his fathers creations.
Animals extinct because of humans abuse of their power.
Animals slaughtered for greed by humans
Nature being policed instead of what God wanted (Pharmacy trade)
We're destroying the world each day and then we pray to someone who is annoyed because we're destroying their creation.
Human beings are now the most vicious animal to walk the earth. Jesus was a gentle person and we betrayed him with the way we are living now.

I would think he would attempt to introduce Darwinism into the church.
Every body always says, WWJD, but what did Jesus do???
What invention did he make, how did he better the world he left behind.
Of course you could always say he terminated sin, but i can do that right now also.
"SIN DOES NOT EXIST. ONLY GUILT DOES."

He was kind of pissed at the church when he was here 2000 years ago. It would be worse now.

Christianity isn't "practiced" anyway. I don't know where you got that idea. It's an identity as saved by Jesus Christ.

I'm sure He wouldn't do anything differently. He wasn't the problem. He'd probably have a lot of issues with the practices of today. Hopefully, he wouldn't be crucified again--but I wouldn't count on it.
