Comment on What did Jesus really look like? by Mark

Mark — Mon, 30 Jun 2008 23:53:38 +0000

When I was aprox 13 years old a minister of some sort told me that the pictures of Jesus we see around today come from one picture that was painted by a gay artist many many years ago and was what he thought
Jesus would look like. I have never heard anything other then that to agree or disagree and now I am 44 years old.

looks like Copeland is fighting back with a website of his own. I can’t say that I blame him. This article recently came out in Dallas Star Telegram..

Comment on Does Hollywood hate Christians? by Felicity

Felicity — Sun, 04 May 2008 19:45:49 +0000

I usually watch foreign movies, just because I can’t stand to see yet one more portrayal of people who have any association at all with Christ or His name, or His image as being small-minded, biggoted, back woods, repressed, maniacs. recently I watched an independent film called LolliLove.., the air headed young couple in the movie decided to make and distribute lollipops with artwork and “inspirational” messages to the Homeless in a large Californian city. The couple used Jesus Christ’s name.., as always Hollywood only uses His name if it is in parody and in a “making fun of” way. They had the Chrisitians paraying at a dinner table, and downplaying the horrid events that the Jews suffered in the past. I wondered why the airheaded rich couple had not instead, as a total stroke of new idea and true genius.., had not instead been portrayed as being Jewish themselves…, as that would have been a real risk taking activity….,no, never, never, instead, predictably.., they had to be “Chrisitian” It made my heart hurt.., It made me ache.., it hurt me.., it really was painful. Werenot Chrisitians tortured and killled by the Romans, by the Chinese, are tehy not now being persecuted by the producers of Hollywood who cut away at us in small bits daily?

Comment on Why Won’t God Heal Amputees? by martyraj

Ben,
I liked your comments and found them to be very intersting.
Can try to answer your two questions.
1. My forefathers accepted Christ as their God facing opposition, persecution, violence and hardship. I am very proud of this fact and their Faith Life .
Following Christ is my “free will” choice .Their Life may be an inspiration.
2. I would like to consider myself as not belonging to any religion.
My simple definition of Christian is a person who believes in the word of God -a person who lives a life of Faith.
Few things I would like to add about my understanding and perception of God.
God came to earth searching for the lost ones ..He is making as much as effort as we make to find us and probably more. …HE is making HIMSELF available 24X7X365 in ALL Languages ABSOLUTLY NO BARRIERS… and Possibly the Best Help Line ever known to mankind…
And Finally,
The God of Christians says He came to SERVE and not to get SERVED..
P.S. I would like to know about “M-Theory”.

If Hell was not there ,Christ would not have to die on Cross. HE died to save us from HELL which is due to us (ALL PEOPLE EVER BORN ON EARTH).
I feel people have hard time grasping the concept of sin and hell.
I asked once that how a loving GOD can sent anybody to hell to suffer for eternity and so there cannot be a Hell.
But i cannot find a satisfactory answer to the question why the almighty GOD HIMSELF had to suffer and die on cross.
That obvoiusly led to the conclusion that hell is such a horrible place and it is 100% real.
As a corollary ,I found the and experienced the LOVE of GOD .
I may sound old fashioned and preaching .I would like to say to all reading the blog that I WAS SAVED FROM HELL.

I read that the Angel Moroni, that appared to Joseph Smith was a Nefilim and also the god of the Old Testament. I have been terrorfied of this god all of my life, starting with a complete nervous breakdown at 6yrs of age, from a sermon about death. .I was physically and mentally abused from my father.

Also, I would like to know if the book of Revelation is a literal or spiritual interpertation only as channeled by Edgar Cayce or is it byfold, Many scriptures talk of war, food shortages, and nearly everthing that is transpairing today.

Rev. also teaches, if I’m not mistaken, that Elijah will appear in the last days. Which last days? Jesus asked the diciples,

‘who do say that I am? Jesus answered, ” but Elijah has already come and they did with him what they would”. And the diciples preceived He spoke of John the Baptist, the reincarnation of Elijah. The Bible, as far as I know doesn’t declare there will be two returns of Elijah.
Love your web site, the answers from the real Jesus has changed my life. I have been seeking for the truth ever since I came out of the dogmatic teaching in of the pentacostal church. I tried one of the meditations Jesus gave concerning connecting to your Christself. A miracle transpired that I cannot explain, all I know is that I have the joy and peace that I lost from the tradgic death of my mother. I have been healed many times and had the joy of the Lord, as the church teachs, with unexplainable joy unspeakable. I have waited for the conscious knowing along with the inward realization that God does abide within. The truth has set me free from most of the confusion and the “what if’s I may be decieved”. I, as we all, still have a ways to go as we prepare for the Assendtion My whole consciousness has changed so much just since I did the one meditation.
May God bless all with the inward knowing of the oneness of ALL that Is. Our I Am Presense.

Hi Ben,

That is great that you are keeping an open mind. Christianity is historical in evidential, in that it points to real people, places and events in history. There is lots of evidence and reason for it.

Re. the threat of hell - as an aside, it isn’t torture, it is punishment - the due punishment for our sins, unless we trust in Jesus and have his righteousness transferred to our account and our sins transferred to his. Is Hell a “threat?” I suppose so. But scare tactics are only inappropriate if the consequences aren’t real.

I encourage you to take an open minded study of the Bible. I think you’ll find that all the tough questions people ask (Why do bad things happen?, etc.) are addressed there.

Peace,
Neil
