If he wasn’t there is no point to Christianity.

Don’t they get that?

I thought that 40% said, “Jesus who?”

Jesus was sinless.

Does sin exist anymore? Isn't that just lifestyle?

IF He wasn’t , then He was not God.
Therefore, the sacrifice He made on the cross is to no avail.
Mankind is doomed forever with no hope.
But for me and my house, we choose to believe and have faith in the Word of Almighty God, NOT some godless government indoctrination BS.

Well, Jesus did piss some people off. Acting all judgmental and stuff. Not being a team player. Not going along with the crowd, not bending the popular Will. That’s pretty triggering. Micro-aggressions aren’t cool, you know. Or are you some kind of phobist?

When they were not taught that Jesus is ‘God With Us’ and have no clue regarding Jesus’s message to the disciples in John 14, then they do not believe Jesus is God so they cannot fathom His Righteousness AS GOD WITH US.

A lot of them think that The Da Vinci Code isn’t a fiction, and the church invented the entire “mythology” of Jesus. The movie concludes that Jesus was just some ordinary guy and there’s nothing special about him. It’s nothing less than blasphemy but it’s become ever more popular the more we’re exposed to it. I don’t think too much of Tom Hanks anymore.

Doesn't this study really say that about 35+% of adults do not believe that Jesus was sinless? With a margin of error of 2.51%, there is no real significant difference between Baby Boomers at 35%, Millennials at 35%, Gen X at 37%, and Gen Z at 38%. Every generation has honest unbelievers.

It seems to me that the bigger question is about the 60+% who believe that Jesus was sinless. Why aren't these people serious Christians? Nominal Christianity is not consistent with a true belief in Jesus' sinlessness.

30% of Americans report they have no religion, with the younger cohorts the highest number of “nones.” so it is not a surprise they wouldn’t think Jesus was divine. Add in believers, but nonChristian, and the 40% mark is easily within reach.

No surprise here.

Our Christian faith teaches that Jesus the man led a sinless life. I accept this on faith. But every second of every day in the life of Jesus and every thought He ever had while on Earth was not recorded and written down.

Do they believe he rose from the dead? If they won’t believe that there is no way they will accept a sinless Jesus.

Virtue is POWER. Jesus was virtuous (sinless), therefore he had POWER to overcome death for us. We could not and cannot overcome death by our own power (good people do have power, but not POWER like Jesus has).

I also think it was necessary for Jesus to be perfect and subject to earthly injustice to be able to usher in ultimate justice and mercy for us. If I want to see imperfection I only have to look in the mirror.
