Why do many believers admire and have Jesus as their "spokesperson"? I heard he evolved before he died.

If you'r a Christian and a true believer, then what is it thats confusing you. Don't you read the Bible? Where does it say anywhere in the Bible that anyone except Jesus ever came back from the dead to live a new life? No, I do not believe in past lives.

I think he meant he dont PRE-judge anyone.  Yes I am getting stirred up over Jesus!  Look at the world and the extremely elevated debate over Christianity, if that isnt proof that the Bible is accurate, non-believers will NEVER be convinced. I am amazed at how many people I am seeing converting to Christianity.  I have even seen in the last few days people here go from anti-christ, to believer- God is amazing!\n\nNOTE: Before anyone else says he didnt ask a question, read it again- the bold highlited part.  "Getting stirred up over Jesus?"  - that looks like a question to me so,,, are you???

Yes, He does, when the man in The Bible was brought to Jesus and He was lowered through the roof we are not told He as A believer, in fact Jesus when He healed the man that had been crippled by the pool for over 40 years never asked do you believe, He asked "do you want to be made better" Jesus asked that because He was going to leave the old way of Life for something else, He like you and me, once Jesus comes into ones life is NEVER the same, God does do miracles, that is one of the reason we become christians is because the way Jesus deals with us non christians, we "became christian bellievers" because of the Love of Jesus in that while we were still sinners He died for us. wgr88@yahoo.com email me I will respond, God Bless ya.

never heard of a Jesusite, maybe you mean christians or jesuites, which are total ends of the spectrum. In general though, people who ask questions filled with generalities that infere all of one type of people always do a certain behavior could possibly be limited in their knowledge of those who follow that certain philosophy of life. My suggestion to you is to get to know a lot more of these "Jesusites before making such an all encompassing presumption.

There is plenty of historical evidence that there was a real man named Jesus that did and said the things that are recorded in the New Testament.  Some people choose to dismiss him as  a myth because it easier then to have to deal with who He was and what He taught.  Basically, you either believe He is who He claimed to be - The Son of God - or you don't.  And if you choose not to believe, you have to justify why you don't believe.  Embracing the "myth theory" is one way to justify ones unbelief.  But if you seriously study the evidence, I think you will see that it is a flimsy argument with no historical support.  Most of the people on here that claim Jesus is a myth have never examined the evidence one way or the other.  Most of them just heard someone else say it was so and they latched on to it as a way of dismissing the whole story.  At least in their own mind.

First, I don't think anybody can definitively "prove" Jesus' existence.  But, I do know that I admire the mythology of Jesus and his teachings.  I also admire other great humans from antiquity.  Whether you choose to believe in Jesus or not, don't disregard the wonderful parables and teachings of the man.  You can choose to learn from a variety of sources without having to be a Christian or Muslim or Atheist.  There is good knowledge out there.  Seek it.

How are Christians supposed to know who he is so they can imitate him?  Trust me, if I wanted to know more about Jesus I wouldn't look at some Christians and assume he was like them.

It wasn't an affair. They were married. And even if he did, why is everyone always picking on Jesus? Seriously, everyone's always trying to prove that he was bad or worng or didn't exist or something. If people want to believe that Jesus is the saviour, then let them. Why are people that choose not to believe so concerned about Jesus?

Jesus didn't do that.  People who create and modify religious practice did that.  Jesus has been dead for over 2000 yrs.

Some would say that's what Jesus did. That he had the power to fool the masses into thinking he was son of god when actually he was just another guy.

Jesus did not worship himself and either do I.  I worship the God that he worshiped.  I am a folower of Jesus (peace be upon him) but not a Christian.\n\nJust like he said "the father is greater than me." enough said.

Because the church has taken away all of his human characterisics and focused on his spiritual side.\nThinking Jesus was "just another human" would make him seem to be more of a prophet than a saviour, as most other religions describe him.\nIt's kind of like why you never see film stars going to the toilet - because if you did, you wouldn't worship them any more.

oh definately, you are so right! I feel I can add to this...I also believe that, if Jesus had nothing to say on the subject, and if his disciples too, had nothing to say on the subject...if nothing can be found in the collected mythology of the nomadic tribes that form Jesus's ancestry, and noone can be found to say anything that sounds like Jesus or his disciples or his nomadic ancestors could have said it, and if we cannot imagine ourselves what he might have done.........we should look to the Easter bunny for inspiration.

Living or Dead? Well never mind, it would still be Jesus, because he is still alive in millions of people hearts. I am not preaching religion, but its just a fact. More people have heard about Jesus than anyone else.

lemme get this straight... he (Jesus) said that he is a prophet, and 'peter' said he is the son of god... so jesus doesn't admit it to himself? \n\nstarr ww agrees that jesus was a prophet, but became a saviour when he died which mean who made him what he is? DID HE? OR DID YOU? unless he screams from the cross "I'm doing this for you people, you better be thanking me and make me your god or something, cos this thing hurts like a b****"

If by "another prophet" you are referring to Jesus, I want to clarify that the Jews did not kill Jesus.  The Romans killed Jesus.  Of course, there were Jews who supported that action, because Jesus was causing a potential danger to them.  If Jesus claimed to be the Messiah, what did that mean to the Romans?  It meant that this Jesus felt himself to be the next king of Israel who would throw off the Romans!  So no wonder the Romans wanted him out of the picture.  But the Jews themselves did not want this kind of animosity.  They didn't want any more trouble with the Romans than they already had.\n\nAs far as the prophets ended with the killing of Zacharias......could we not say that Jesus was referring to those who came before him, since he was still alive?  Why would he include himself when he was not dead yet?\n\nAnd yes, Jesus was a prophet.  A prophet is more than a future-teller, although Jesus did do that.  A prophet is a messenger who tells the people God's will.  How can you all deny that Jesus was a prophet?
