Did the Church create Jesus?
might as well make Jesus a woman.
oh wait...didnt I post a thread about paris jackson going to be a lesbian jesus...
The Anglican Church needs to learn there are certain modern ideas and hypothesis the church doesn’t necessarily need to respond to. In other words, don’t be so quick to fold and give up your principles because one or two loud/rude people say they don’t like it.
No.
Jesus had slaves!!
I can show it to you in the Bible.
Jesus (in His incarnation) was JEWISH, not exactly “white”. But you can’t talk to these cretins.
The world has really gone mad if these are the things we get worked up about...
The first question to ask people who say things like this is, Do you accept the entire Bible or are there parts that should be left out today? If you don’t accept it all, what parts, specifically, do you accept? In most cases, I think you will find that the parts they leave out are much longer than the parts they will accept.
Rethink that Black Sanity Clause while you’re at it.
Call me crazy, but how about a Jewish Jesus?
It’s not about thinking anymore.
No one ever said he was white. You can thank early painters and Hollywood for giving us “white” Jesus.
Well, he was a middle eastern man. I imagine you could go to Israel and see a million men who looked similar. Not exactly a black African. But not light haired, light skinned, and blue eyed.
Jesus was a Semite.
buckle to evil? That won’t work out well.
He’s the Resurrection, The Now, Jesus Christos.
The racial Balkanization of Christ.
Evil.
Does anybody remember back 20 years or so ago when the Taliban blew up the Buddha statues in Afghanistan?
I wonder how the Archbishop reacted to that. Was it fine and dandy for that to happen since the Buddha statues offended the Taliban? Somehow I doubt that.
Jesus was born in the particular region As ordained by God. Not being jealous about that is what people need to strive to be, also ordained by God.
The recognized saints come in every race and in both sexes. There are women doctors of the Church as well as men as women have as much ability to understand theology ands men and vice versa. Ditto people of all races.
Many believe that the Mother of Jesus appears to people. All things are possible through God. When she does it is of the local race, nationality, customers, clothes and language of the local people. Japan, Vietnam, Rwanda, Mexico and others.
God created all People to be equal in dignity. That’s all. So Jesus was born in Nazareth and spoke Aramaic. He is Jesus. Right now he has no race or nationality.
