What if he came back and proved himself to you somehow (walking on water... stigmata... whatever)? What if he told you that you had it all wrong? What if he said that you were really supposed to help poor people (all of them... ). What if he told you that your selfishness was wrong... that war was wrong.. that he, Jesus, was (especially in those last few hours) pretty firmly against torture. What if he told you that every kid who couldn't get healthcare... every homeless person you saw... every homosexual who wanted to be treated equally was, in fact, also Jesus.
Would you change? Would you live the words you read? Or would you denounce him.

I'm sure that many Christians would turn away in disgust as soon as he made a statement that contradicted their own emotion-based political views. They would insist that he was a manifestation of Satan, placed on the Earth to test their faith.

Jesus says every one of those things except that homosexuals were to be shown the truth. Homosexuality is strictly forbidden according to God's word. War cannot be helped. For when Jesus does come back, it will be to rapture the christians out of this world. And then there will be 3 1/2 years of peace and 3 1/2 years of war. torture is a sin and no christian would ever torture anyone. There is pain in this world because man sinned against God in the beggining of this world. Adam and Eve sinned against God and so there is pain and suffering. There is famine and homeless people and serious problems with the world also for another reason. Because people don't go to the lord and ask him for help. How can you get help if you don't ask for it from God?

When Jesus comes back I will be meeting Him in the air. Jesus will never teach anything against what God taught.
That said, Jesus did teach to help the poor, not to be selfish, love your neighbors and treat others how you want to be treated. As a Christian I should not and do not hate homosexuals. I believe they are in sin, but I believe telling a lie is also a sin, and we all have sinned. That is why we all need Jesus as Savior!

Jesus is coming and quickly He instructed us the main substantial sign could be Israel being back and what a miracle it relatively is immediately. The mark of the beast is basically that a mark 666 no longer something greater. Chips are reliable they help to discover my dogs and could be reliable for discovering human beings. The mark of the beast doesnt come till the 2d a million/2 of the tribulation. and there's a catching away of the saints till now then. in case you're walking and conversing to God you would be caught away till now all of it occurs. do no longer concern for God has no longer given us that spirit. you have chose a e book Revelation Reveled by employing Hilton Sutton he sticks to the word of God. Get it examine it relatively is blessed

Why you silly fool, don't you realize that if Jesus came
back, he'd be wearing a suit and tie, work on Wall
Street, and vote Republican in every election?
And he'd be in in favor of the death penalty, the war
in Iraq (they're a bunch of no-good heathens anyhow)
and would oppose universal health insurance for poor
kids (hey, His Daddy gives the little brats cancer all the time,
so why let gov't money be used to cure 'em?)
How do I know this, you ask? (By observing His typical
supplicants..!)

You need to understand that all who call themselves christians are not all Christians. Even Jesus said that many will say to Him in that day "Lord did we not do (this this and that in your name)? And He will say to them, "Depart from me, I never knew you". There are many Jesus' in this world, But there is only one "TRUE" JESUS. And he is the Son of the Living God. He IS coming back and He will be are judge as to how we treat people. He is the same Jesus that the Bible speaks about and it's the same Bible that tells us how to live as Christians.

So far, I'm unaware of doing any of that bad stuff. But maybe I am, subconsciously. in any case, if Jesus Christ came back to Earth and told me I wasn't doing well enough, I'd thank him so much for letting me know before it was too late, and I'd definitely change.
Of course, Jesus Christ will come again...but then, it'll be too late.

He is back - didn't you know about it???
Figuratively though... His original teachings are available to us now - if you care to read and follow up on it?
The text in question is 'The Talmud Jmmanuel' text.
And yes - there are a great number of changes that the Christians made, to his original message and story, etc etc.

They'd all be clamoring for his attention. like groupies after an autograph. Each one would be entreating for HIS/HER salvation and personal validation. None of them would actually listen to him - they'd all interpret what he said to fit their beliefs and judge everyone else accordingly.
Just like it happened the first time.

First off, it is generally not Christians who go door to door, it is JW's or cults.
Secondly, if you started pushing Darwinism on me, then i would argue to prove you wrong. If you still believe in Darwin's theory of evolution, then you are uneducated on that topic. Scientists dont even believe in it anymore, and if you look at evolution logically, then you too would see that it doesnt make sense
