Re: Jesus
One thing for sure, he wouldn't have given you a straight answer!
Maybe he would have said "You will need to ask my dad"

Re: Jesus
Hi,
Have you went into some kind of rabid cut and paste frenzy?
Is this a new game, see how many words you cant type before something coherent appears?
I think you have replied to about 30 people here, and decided to just throw all the answers into one reply and let us sort it out ourselves!
All of this seems true to me
It may well do, but I dont understand a word of it!
Best Wishes Brad, I take it this reply was meant for someone else.

Who is Jesus Christ according to the Bible, not our opinion?
It is quite clear who Jesus was according to the Bible:
A false prophet:
Matthew 24:11 'Many false prophets will rise up and deceive many.'
Jesus fits this description perfectly, even 2000 years later people are still being deceived.
Matthew 7:15 'Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves.'
Jesus again, the lamb of God, comes as a meek sheepish person, but underneath is the mind of a madman (as demonstrated at the temple cleansing)
Matthew 24:24 'For false Christs and false prophets will appear and perform great signs and miracles to deceive even the elect--if that were possible.'
Jesus again. This states that even false Christs and false Prophets can perform signs and miracles. So Jesus' 'miracles' do not make him unique and his false prophecies prove he was a fake.

A bit Miffed
Hi Iasion,
Hope you are well,
Could you expand on what you mean by 'myth' in the sentence 'Further evidence that Jesus was a myth, added late to Christianity'.
I agree with the statement at face value, but people sometimes have a different idea of what the word 'myth' means, so I wouldn't like to presume that what I think of as being a 'myth' is the same as anyone elses.
If you could just give me your definition of 'myth' then I am sure we can have a good discussion on how the importance of Jesus has been blown out of all proportion.
Brian.
