Jesus is the Christ, and his age is about 2,000 years. Jesus is the incarnation of the eternal Word, the second Person of the Trinity, present with the Father at the creation. It's the incarnation that happened in time at a definite point. Prior to this time God was not also Man. Subsequently he is, and will be forever.

.....better, 'present with the Father since BEFORE the creation.'

ie. There NEVER was a time when Jesus was NOT!

Jesus too is Almighty God,.....The ETERNAL ONE!

Yeah, yeah, yeah. But the name "Jesus" in this case refers to incarnation of Christ. Hence Luke can write "And when he was twelve years old" (Luke 2:42a). If you were paying attention to the thread and not simply "gotcha," you would have seen that I was arguing that Jesus was, exactly as you say, about 2,000 years old, and not, as the person I responded to would say, infinitely old. The incarnation of Jesus ascended into Heaven, where you correctly state he is and always shall be until he comes again in glory.

Geesh, find something better to do than argue with people who are making your own point.
