  • "Live by the laws and be judge by the laws,not by wicked one.For I'm your God of your life

    I don't need neither worship nor any slain sacrifices to make me holy in your eyes for I'm holy and beyond of any sin of my creation." I heard this in my sleep when I was dying early this year.Thank to god I'm still here.

  • as soon as you see these white people you know the rest is a lie. jesus was not white get over it

  • Nice tribute to Jesus.

  • But I'm not Jewish, How can your Jesus Be My god?

  • You're an MORON!

  • I might surmise that the REAL Jesus was very plausibly not caucasian, contrary to popular belief. He could have been, but come on he was born in Israel. That said this whole pious religion of Christianity is quite contentious if they cannot even depict their supposed "leader" right.

  • The filmmaker appears to be influenced by Maoist propaganda films.

  • The son of God the Lord is not a Christian God.Only the Christian Jesus is.

  • Jesus is REAL!!!!

    Watch out world, He is coming back.

  • Look, I know Jesus Christ PERSONALLY- I have the gift of speaking to him as a spiritual medium almost every day- let me tell you he is still fine speaker, always inspiring me to change my corrupt life for the better.

    However, he is angered by false prophets proclaiming him as the ‘Son of God’- he says he never made ANY such claim, he was an inspired preacher but just a mortal man nontheless. He disowns all who call themselves ‘Christians’- people should look only to themselves for salvation.

  • real Jesus according to Matthew, Mark, Luke, John..... all very different personalities portraid.

  • Jesus had brothers & sisters reared from a well to do family, who worked with wood, stone & masonry, hand hewn loom made crafts & linens, pottery & even the occasional piece or two of fine clothing!

    You speak with definite conjuncture & yet you have never know Him.

    His family and personal life on earth was much different than modern man is aware of.

    Have you asked Him to show you the vast wonders comprising the annals of history & time itself.

    His heart aches for honesty alone.

  • Jesus should have written his own book so that people wouldn't have twisted his story up so much. Now we'll never know the truth :(

  • @jackbliss first you have to recieve the free gift of eternal life by recieving him as your lord and savior by faith.... just believe he is who he said he was, and came to earth for the reason he said he did.....and ask him personslly to come into your heart and trust me all the questions you have can and will be answered by jesus himself !!!! He is alive .......He is LIFE itself.....

  • @jackbliss the truth doesnt exist. he said " im the truth" cuz he do what he wants. what u believe and do, IS TRUE, thats the truth. he did good in not writting a book cuz if he did, ppl will follow that book like crazy, looking for the truth. he knew that like that ppl wouldnt find it.

    what is true for me, for u is false, and vice versa. so truth doesnt really exist.

  • @jackbliss The Bible is His book, and He merely spoke through people. He guided them, giving them the words, everything. It's His words, don't worry. ;)

  • @jackbliss The Holy Spirit did, The bible is GOD BREATHED 2 Tim 3:15-17

  • @jackbliss

    Jesus was a carpenter born into a poor family, so it's unlikely he literate because only upper class elites could afford education. But I agree. It would've been nice to learn of his views directly rather through manipulative religious zealots.

  • i didn't know there was a fake jesus.

  • Jesus was a hebrew man. In this world today they call hebrews black people. Jesus had dred locks not goat hair....but who would listen to me in this era....so we wait on Judgement day. Finding the truth then, will be too late if you believe in a caucasian Jesus today. I am not being racist, when I was told he was caucasian it never phased me. I still called on him. It was when he visited me in vision, well all I can say is to this day, I am still in shock.

  • Recently came out a female scholar, certain Sara Hermon, that has written a book " The Galileus Gospel" (italian language). She claims to have been a pupil of prof. Morton Smith, maybe by mailing because she lived in Europe and not in USA; anyway, it seems they met sometimes in England many years ago. We don't know if Hermon's book is fiction or reality, but it's amazing how many similarities the novel shows, compared to Smith hypothesis about secret, gnostic Mark gospel.

  • How many thousand years you and you Church deceive peoples. You said old testament says Jesus is God. But real Jews the law and Talmud says no man can be God. You are poor in your blind faith . Open your eyes if you want to know the true God. He is one and only. Jesus is never God and he can't even be.

  • Don't misguide the people.. Jesus is only messenger of God and he performed miracles and wonders which God did by him.

  • JESUS! I mean; THAT'S my KING!

  • Awesome

  • Awesome!!

    Peace

  • NO PROOF.....

  • everyone that sees this add me as a friend on youtube??? please :)

  • say what you want world at the end of day we kown in our soul we cry out for jesus so you want live porverty and sin and hate then go ahead.if you want a better life say this words jesus come into my heart and be my lord and savior i thank for what you did at the cross for i want to love you are something new in jesus name we pray amen you are now save and eirs and co eirs of the kingdom of heaven now go and to a pentocostal church and begin to live bette life i love all and jesus loves you :)

  • Alright I think I might as well give everyone a synopsis of christianity. It is the belief the some cosmic Jewish zombie can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him that you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree.

    Makes perfect sense.

    Also don't forget you are make of dirt and are a product of incest as well.

  • Christianity is just one big contradiction to itself. I realized this when I was 6 and have never seen it any other way. (btw, my mom was a Sunday school teacher.)

  • sounds like my life to the day

  • This stuff is not only incorrect, it is biblically incorrect. Hey, where is Jesus buried? Jesus himself said you can't get to heaven in human form. Therefore he's dead if he is in heaven. His spirit lives on, his body is DEAD! If you want to know religion's truth then read The Lost Book of Enki. It is the book the Bible was plagerized from. It was also written at least 2000 years before the Old Testament.

  • "God works in mysterious ways " But these Bozos like to think they know what their God knows. A little bit of a presumption.

  • And (remember) when Allah will say (on the Day of Resurrection): "O 'Îsa (Jesus), son of Maryam (Mary)! Did you say unto men: 'Worship me and my mother as two gods besides Allah?' " He will say: "Glory be to You! It was not for me to say what I had no right (to say). Had I said such a thing, You would surely have known it. You know what is in my inner-self though I do not know what is in Yours; truly, You, only You, are the All-Knower of all that is hidden (and unseen). SURAH 5 VERSE 116

  • it shows who ever put up this video hasnt gone thru the bible at all

  • horrible lies u dont say how he disappeard for 18 years and not even written about in the bible he grow to 12 yrs old then came back in the picture boom hes 30 get it right pal

  • he was black man 

  • Explain to me how someone could walk on water. It doesnt make sense. Would he float up when a wave comes? How would it work? You must consider this, christians.

  • @a10fjet

    Christians don't have to consider the plausibility of anything. They just have to believe that god can do anything. That's the beauty of their story. No matter how wrong it is, how contrary to physics and history the situations are... it doesn't matter because if god wanted to create a triangle with 17 sides or a have someone spit out a Ford truck when he burps, he can do it. There also doesn't need to be proof because NOT seeing proof means god is testing you. You HAVE to believe.

  • @a10fjet with God all things are possible. i mean he DID create water. why wouldnt He be able to control it? that wouldnt make sense, you must consider this too

  • @a10fjet i ask myself that as a christian beliver i think it was exaggeration/metaphors cause there is a lot of it in the bible ... but hey if your god you can do anything right? lol hell i would not walk on water i would dance on it ^_^ if i could :(

  • @a10fjet He could if He was God-which He is! Consider that. :)

  • @a10fjet Being the almighty God who created the universe, the Earth, I'm pretty sure he has the power to command the water, and walk on it.

  • @a10fjet he did it with the power of alchemy

  • AMEN

  • Who really was Jesus of Nazareth? Messiah? Prophet? Madman? Who did Jesus claim to be?

  • Check out "The Talmud of Jmmanuel" for the true story of the Christ figure.

  • Jesus was like Rasputin nut with charisma and star power.

  • Buddah has more students and followers. More Buddhists than Christians.

  • wow, how about that for a into lol, He is the King of kings and LORD of lords, no one else deserves that kind of build up and opening.

  • He travelled to Rome,China,Egypt,Babylonia,Per­sia ,India,Greek,Ethiopia and all over the world existed that time,or tell us where was he since he disappeared while 9 years old,and re-appeared again in his 33 years old manhood?24 contineious years of disappearing,where was he?He was in all the countries of the whole world`s civilizations learning ALL the things he had to do what we call MIRACLES.

    Even Moses and Muhammad did that for 20 to 30 years of their lives>

    Read history and you`ll know.

  • The bible was written 1000s of years ago by primitive men. Believing jn Jesus Christ or God is like believing the world is still flat(even science prove that its not). A believer states everything must have a creator but fail to say how he was created. Can a being create the 50 billion galaxies, each with 100 billion stars, then rejoice in the smell of burning goat flesh as an offering?

    If there is no religion. There will be NO war, NO holocaust, NO 9/11 massacre. You better start THINKING!

  • All this, yet his followers seek money, death, control, power, revenge, ignorance, bigotry, slavery

    the Christians I know anyhow.

    The American christian,

    bunch of right wing nazi, science denying, book burning, goodness hating, ingrat's,

    thanks you right wing assholes.

    And you other christians who are offended by what I say, even disagree,

    Start standing up against your bigoted brethren and their flawed theology and let the world see it.

    Then maybe respect will return to a once great religion.

  • If not collecting stamps is not a hobby, why do you non-collectors dedicate so much of your time to it?

  • It is not so accurate to say that His relatives had no education. His mother's uncle Zachery was a priest in the temple. He was raised in a suburb of a very important, priestly city. His Aunt Elizabeth, and therefore Mary, the Ever-Virgin One, were of the priestly cast.

  • @allsaintsmonastery that does not mean mary and joseph had a school education.maybe the uncle but not the parents

  • What action are we to do? Jesus teaches us to love God and love one another. Again, His major theme is to love, show mercy, forgive others, be humble, and be a servant. War is not consistent with this theme. To follow Him, is a to commit to love and peace.

  • Jesus was a simple philosopher. A philosopher of great wisdom, but a man like your or I, nonetheless. Religion has twisted his words in such a way that we have become brainwashed into believing all this literal rubbish, spouted in churches. Find the real Jesus, and you will find great wisdom.

  • He didnt traveld to the far east?

    What can u tell me about his missing years from age of 12 to 30 huh?

  • im jew idont hate jesus (some of us do becouse of cristians hate on us) but people need to understand that we want peace and life without people coming to and tell us to convert to cristianity but only G-O-D himself NOT his son will convert us ,we were loyal to our realigion more then 2500 years ago and we will becouse he gave us his words .and im talking about jews in israel

  • GOD = ELAH = ELOAH = ELAHI = ELOHIM = ALLAH

  • He did get an education by the way: There is a real Jesus, the problem is most do not understand what he tought!!! Knowing Jesus is not his reason for having come to earth, his teachings have not been understood. He is not of ego but rather a teacher which almost everyone did not understand what he tought! Christian should be Christ like, not just Christ praising.

  • @ElementalMutant101 thank you..he was someone who didnt literally mean i am gods biological son..he meant do as i do be peacful, love your enemy, do unto others as you would have them do unto you, forgive those who sin against you 7x77 times and you will be loved by god..clearly the least violent religious text of the 3 monotheistic religions and the most attacked for some strange reason

  • @ElementalMutant101 Christians should be Christ like AND Christ praising!

  • @ElementalMutant101 are you eastern orthodox?

  • At the very least , I would rather die believing in Jesus as my Savior and find out he wasn't real , than to die NOT believing and finding out I was horribly and wrong..

  • @MrMakavelli4ever sounds kinda like youre placing a wager. Im not sure that really constitutes 'belief'.

  • Why humans are so passionate about having someone supperior

    Why not give ourselves self supperiority

    We are bright kind but we have to believe in ourselves

    No one is watching us , we are strong enoght to handle our life

  • How do you say Jesus IS God? The trinity doctrine has pagan origins and this is not the case with Jesus. The bible states clearly that they are in unity but the following scriptures prove Jesus was not God but with God.

    John 8:42 came from God, He Sent Me

    John 12:49 and 5:23 Father Sent Me

    John 14:28 MY FATHER IS GREATER THAN I.

    John 5:19-30 I seek Not My Will but the Will of the FATHER that has SENT me.

    I can go on if you need more scriptures.

  • @mkblagg Man was created in Gods IMAGE but then man sinned, Jesus is said the be the perfect Image of the Father and never sinned. If we cannot know for sure if Jesus (Yeshua) IS God or the Son of God , then why not just follow Him and worship God and give the Son the honor deserving of Messiah? Its okay to not know or understand everything. Someday we will know and understand, but right now in this life, we are only required to hear and obey, to do our best out of love for the Father..

  • "because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, and changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and four-footed beasts, and creeping things."

  • "I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me."

    John 14:6

  • @AcePilot2009 .In John 6:44 Jesus said no one can come to me unless the Father who sent me draws him and I will raise him up on the last day.When you look at this verse carefully you will see,that it's not the person coming to Christ who comes on his own,but it is THE FATHER who brings those to Christ and once this happens they are kept by Jesus and raised to life at the end. Isn't this a little contradictory?

  • everybody look out for "gabriel's revelation",another proof that christianity is just a rip-off of other religions before christ

  • john3:16

  • we dont have a clue about the real jesus beacus paul invented a jesus who was larger than life think about all your so called heroes in real life they never live up to expectations of them because no one is perfect i think paul convienently left out jesus,s own imperfections to make him live up to this cherade of being the son of god i believe he was given power to heal by god but he was not his son what buisness does god have with human beings he only wants us to worship him not idolize a man

  • The Real Jesus

  • Who is Cesare Borgia to you? I love what you have said in this video, and it is truth. But the pictures you're using here disturbs me. Those of an evil man Cesare Borgia who posed for Leonardo DeVincci to paint these portraits that you are using. look it up. Grace and Peace.

  • jesus is completely irrelevant

  • @XceptionalXistence

    To YOU perhaps, but he's the beginning and the end to those who hear his voice :)

  • Hi Jcr4runner, can you explain why Jesus calls himself the morning star? I'm pretty new to Christ and his word but am really confused why he would call himself Lucifer. Hope you or somebody else can answer that. I've seen people today drive out demonds and everybody says they must be evil but Jesus did it and we dont question it, we just assume he was good. The old testament tells us we should not worship any other but the New Test. says Father,Word,Holy ghost are one. Who do we believe? Thanks

  • First, this is a metaphor, Jesus is not literally a morning star.

    Second, Lucifer is called a morning star prior to his rebellion.

    Third, sometimes metaphors can be used more than once to describe opposite things. The kingdom of God is described by Jesus as being "leaven" that works its way through the whole lump of dough. But in another place, Jesus warns the disciples to beware of the "leaven of the Pharisees."

    What we have here is a figure of speech that is fluid, not static.

  • Do we know its just a metaphor? or just guessing? sincere

  • Yes, Jesus is not a star or a planet.

  • @jcr4runner but how do we know?

  • @jcr4runner me agnostic i rock the real jesus, the son of cleopetra. wwwf4wpeaceDOTde....F4 World Peace by Cultural-Change. PEACE ALL. Inshallah! you idiot or snake-oil salesmen?

  • @jcr4runner I'm sorry, no where in the bible does it say Satan is lucifer, no where in the bible does it say Satan was even ever an Angel that was cast out of heaven... Lucifer is a title rightfully attributed to Jesus, but satan has tried and somewhat succesfully stolen that name for himself. Satan is a forced created and obedient to God the Sovereign father, to test humanity. He was never an angel that sinned against God, he has always been in obedience. Basically created to be a tempter

  • @Trepoundent Apparantly you have not read Revelation.

  • @jcr4runner That is obvious but before the rebellion or not God would have known that Lucifer would rebel would he not? Why would Jesus call himself the morning star? Why would God allow for so much misinterpretation of the Bible. The last 2 millennia have been testament to the atrocities committed through misinterpretation of the Bible

  • @jcr4runner wanna bet on that?

  • @jcr4runner he also neither God, people are so blind even to understand what is infront of them and make silly explanantion to justify what they wanna believe, Jesus himself said he is de SON of God, All the Bible stablishes the same statement, i dont even know why.. Hopefully people will understand he is not a planet, and not God, I would even believe more if u tell me he is extraterrestial...(in a way he was though)

  • @bobhawkins1966

    You might benefit from some more open minded theories of Jesus and God. send me a msg if you want some interesting information, and would like someone to explore the bible and religions with, comming from no bias, with an open mind. take care...Sunshine

  • @jcr4runner "metaphors can be used more than once to describe opposite things" ESPECIALLY IN RELIGION lol, all the 3 non pagan religions are based on astrology anyhow

  • @bobhawkins1966

    (The old testament tells us we should not worship any other)

    Bob, the old testament does tell us in the first page or two that God is not alone in the beginning.

    Look at Gen 1:26 (Let US make man in, OUR image, according to OUR likeness) Not my image, or my likeness but our meaning there is more than one being there.

    Also if we look at John 1 (I don't have enough space here) but we see the word meaning jesus (v14). What are words?

  • @bobhawkins1966 Also, remember Lucifer tries to be like God and take everything for himself.

  • @bobhawkins1966 There is no Lucifer' there is not proof to anyones mans God' Jesus is a fabled story but the lesson do indeed share merit when the good book is beaing read properly and not as any sense to history other than the few references to the then powers there were of any influence' reasoning that Jesus couldnt possible have performed his miracles questions any sense to physical possibilities which is why this charachter has become a mythical legend'

  • real name of jesus is ISA not jesus english people make words easier but its not correct sorry for my english. if you read your bible it says do not use other words but only Gods words not your words prophets wasnt speak english

  • If we are made in the image of God, why do people continue to try to make Jesus into his Father God? Are humans the same person as their father? No, neither is Jesus, he is the SON OF GOD and SON OF MAN (human). The real Jesus kept the Torah, the commandments, the holy days and the feasts. Jesus was a Jew and his mother called him Yeshua, not Jesus. Man has invented so many religions to worship the greek Jesus, and this is the imposter.

  • Jesus states very clear that he is NOT GOD!! Yet so called christians persist in calling him god. I dont get it.

  • cad, Oh really you seem pretty sure, have you ever studied the gospels on a scholarly historical level?

  • If you research the origins of the "Trinity," you'll find it is a pagan belief cloaked in christianity. The Bible makes it clear that Jesus was a god, but not God the Father, Yaweh. Jesus is called the "firstborn of all 'creation'" and always showed his subordinate rank to his Father. He said that only his Father knew when the End would be. If he were God, he'd know. Also, he wasn't an anorexic nomad. He was perfect in form and a carpenter who wore fine garments. He ate well, drank wine...

  • @caddy1010 read John 8: 50-58 then read Exodus 3: 13-14

  • Jesus has outlived the rest of the leaders because its so old to ever know who jesus really was and how he was.. We "know him" by the new testement if you didn't happen to know has been tampered with. ?? how can you believe scripts of writting that have been manipulated ? no one knows Jesus... if u happen to have spent your life with him maybe then i would have faith in him..

  • Then how do explain the Roman accounts and Jewish accounts which say he lived, performed miracles,died on a Roman cross and his tomb was empty 3 days later?These are outside the bible and do not contradict it.

  • What roman accounts. Which one names Jesus.

  • Tacitus, Pliny, Suetonius name Christ.

    Josephus mentions Jesus twice and James, John the Baptist and the early Christians.

  • And here I thought I'd find something educational. Instead I find some idiot who believes what has been shoved down his throat like many others. It must be hard to live life so insecure that you require something more to believe in.

  • The exact same thing happened to me.

  • @Lazysan

    Your first sentence depicts the beginning and the end of your pathetic search my brother! You're looking for educational material, instead of looking for the savior of all mankind. I can only pray that your finite carnal mind would some day discover the infinite wisdom of God. By your Standards, I too am an idiot who believes in Jesus (nothing shove down here) as my Lord and savior. Thank you brother JCR4runner for your work inspite of an unbelieving world. God Bless.

  • It is educational ..just not in the way you were looking for, but perhaps in the way you need.

  • Jcr4Runner.. How much of your time is spent selling these DVD"s? Do you have a real job, or is this "ministry" it?

  • I spend about 10 to 20 percent of my time on ministry related projects including video production.

    The DVDs sell themselves just by the web presence here and at our website and a few on Amazon. I don't do much marketing. I would do more.

    Other than that I am a full-time English and Social Studies teacher, the husband of one wife and pro-life Personhood Amendment activist.

    What do you do in your spare time?

  • It is not funny when somebody reads out a fairytale book as a history book.

    There might have been a man called Jesus but not the way portrayed by a self-contradicting fairytale book.

  • I totally enjoy this sort of thing.

    Can you give me just five contradictions? Three? Ok, ok... let's start with just one.  Give me just ONE contradiction.

    If you're willing to make the statement, you should be able to back up your thought.

    Let's see it, please. I'll wait.

  • What day was Jesus crucified?

  • Where did Jesus say that he was not God? I want to see this with my own eyes... Because I have read in the BIBLE that he is saying that he is the Son of God. And it is written that he is apart of the HOLY TRINITY: THE FATHER, THE SON, AND THE HOLY SPIRIT! Please read the BIBLE for yourself and stop making uneducated and ignorant claims about something that you can't back up!

  • @SupremeChimp Passover

  • @ranbonzy There was never a man called JESUS until about 500 years ago. Look up the history for the letter "J".

  • @tranceman22 You are a genius!

    No letter "J" -- no Jesus!

    Poof! Gone in a cloud of smoke!

  • @jcr4runner His name was Yashua (Which means "El (G-d with us.) Jesus is merely a Greek translation of this.

  • @tranceman22 LOL!!! YOUR RIGHT!!! BRILLIANT! Even Latin/Roman didn't have the sounds to create the word Jesus.

  • @tranceman22 Both of y'all are really stupid and slow there was no J becasue there was no English Language yet. Simple and to the point.

  • @tranceman22 wow you are blind and wrong, there is more proof then you think

  • @tranceman22 His Hebrew name was Yehoshuah; the Aramaic form is Yeshua; Iesus is the Greek form & Jesus the Latin and English form. No problem here, the Hebrew, Aramaic, & Greek forms were all used in His day. the names of most famous ancient people in history are translations, that has nothing to do with their historicity; Moses & the other prophets, John the Baptist, Julius Caesar, Confusius, Alexander the Great, Erik the Red, Christopher Columbus-all translations-

  • @tranceman22 Yahshua is a transliteration of the original Hebrew or Aramaic name of Jesus ---You are right for the modern name, but he was the God of the universe before coming to earth as a man so that men like yourself could have someone to either love or hate......

  • @tranceman22 This name has endured since the beginning of time.... Jesus is before David,,, for Jesus is the God of David.... ANd all knee shall render to him... and all tongue should confess that Jesus is the son of God...

  • @ranbonzy Fairytale book? So I guess Rome, Jerusalem, and Babylon never existed in History.

  • @ranbonzy Fairy tale? Can u prove that? Dont think so..Can u even prove history? Were u there? No..so your belief in history is based on faith in man's writings..man who can lie, or be mistaken, or deceive. Just because a man writes a book, an article, etc does not always mean it's the truth. But I can promise you that every word spoken of God is truth, can be proven, is being proven as we speak. Look around, the earth testifies of God's design, God's promises are kept, His prophecies fulfilled.

  • There are other religions in the world that would disagree with the whole Jesus thing and Christianity stuff too. The human race will die out soon enough, and the earth will go on with whatever survives next. Just chill and have a few beers and watch football or something.

  • Hi JC can u direct me to a link or a website where i can have a good material on Holy Trinity,,, I need this to help me share this to my family,,,please help..thanks

  • Try my website. Link is above. Then search for "Trinity: Father, Son and Holy Spirit."

  • If you are a Christian believer, take an ancient civilizations class and look at the similarities between it and the pagan beliefs. The ideas all involve virgin birth/resurrection at the different solstices. It's plagiarism of an already two thousand year old idea that attempted to explain the Sun and seasons.

  • The problem is that no credentialed scholar teaching history at the university level teaches this.

    What you really mean to say is, "I read it on the Internet and I like it, so therefore it must be true."

    So yeah, go take such a class and report back to us.

  • bingo. couldn't have said it better myself.

  • @TheBoringProphet Hello mate, can you explain more of this to me maybe in a private message?

  • @TheBoringProphet Acoording to Lee Strobels documentary "the case for the real Jesus" this is false. Its an old idea that has been disproven by historians and has become a sort of urban myth. Christianity either precedes these other pagan beliefs and/or the similarities are not there as commonly described. I wont go into it in detail, but if you watch the documentary or read the book, its very convincing.

  • @karenasmm i am studying religion for my degree, and at the very least some of the ideas definitely have parrallels with pre-existing religious beliefs. particularly buddhism. see the temptation of buddha by the demon Mara and tell me it doesn't smack of the temptation by the devil in the desert. this is just one instance. buddha was also revered by a wise man at his birth, the similarities go on and on and on

  • @TheBoringProphet ---if you think about it, that is probably why God chose to come in like maner so that men ( like yourself ) could relate to him and see that he was the real one...unlike the mythological ones that are only in histoy books, Jesus is here right now, call on him, you will see him.

  • @TheBoringProphet If you look up historicity of Jesus on wikipedia it says the Jesus myth is a 'thoroughly dead thesis.'

  • @Sean2112bd - Proverbs 8:5 says: "You who are simple, gain prudence; you who are foolish, gain understanding." And Proverbs 14:7 says: "Stay away from a foolish man, for you will not find knowledge on his lips." And 1 Corinthians 1:25 also says: "For the foolishness of God is wiser than man’s wisdom, and the weakness of God is stronger than man’s strength." And finally, 1 Timothy 4:7 says, "Have nothing to do with godless myths and old wives’ tales; rather, train yourself to be godly."

  • @Sean2112bd why are we still talking about it now then? its obviously the living truth:)

  • @Sean2112bd You need a new computer- that is not what i found.

  • @TheBoringProphet well you have to remember that ancient civilizations all came from a similar backround.. from the first man and woman. they had prophecies and promises from God that he would come to earth. It was passed down from generation to generation, but then the stories never are the same when they're passed down so they got changed and most even put it into their own new little gods with those stories to help explain things.

  • @TheBoringProphet

    This is hard to establish historically (in antiquity) whether the concepts involving virgin birth and resurrection of the messiah originated in prophecy and were copied by multiple religions or whether they were just human ideas or spiritual patterns that were duplicated chronologically. We know too little about that period of human history to be certain which came first.

  • @TheBoringProphet got to knowwheretorun1984s channel. he offers $1000 to anyone with documented proof that those stories were pre christianity

  • @TheBoringProphet no, it's not plagarism of pagan beliefs but satan is the liar & plagarizer...he copies everything of God to counterfeit or confuse & deceive the nations of the world. Before the foundations of the world Jesus, the Word or Logos was in existence & was a part of creation. The Word was, before Hammarabi was & all other earthly kingdoms that recorded in writing..long before writing the word of God was handed down orally by sages, later to be recorded in writing, as torah, & bible.

  • "Liberal theology" is essentially agnostic or deistic.

    There are no "liberal" Christians in a theological sense.

  • he was not white

  • The four Gosepls are all quoted numerous times in early church writings prior to 115 AD. The four Gospels each portray Jesus as the Divine Messiah -- one with the true God.

    What are these "many Gospels" you refer to?

    When were they written?

  • "The four Gosepls are all quoted numerous times in early church writings prior to 115"

    The earliest mention of the Gospels is in 150 AD by Papias. Authorship is not named until 180 AD by Irenious.

    "portray Jesus as the Divine Messiah"

    Only John links Jesus with God. Written about 100 AD

  • The Gospels are quoted numerous times in the following writings:

    The Didache and Clement c. 96 AD

    Polycarp, Ignatius c. 107-115 AD

    Papias c. 115 - 125 AD

    These dates really aren't in question by many scholars except as noted. There is enough internal evidence in the writings themselves to demonstrate dating and authenticity

    There isn't a single book in the NT that does not portray Jesus as the Divine Messiah.

  • NONE of these writings quote the four Gospels. They are early church rituals and procedures. As I said, Papais indicated the existence of some writings. Irenaeus named the four Gospels about 185. The "four" Gospels are not in use til much later. Of course, there were more than 80 Gospels to choose from....

    My point is the portrayal of Jesus as God is only in John. Son of God (adopted?) or Servant of God (Didache) does not count.

  • That's ludicrous!

    Any edition of the church fathers shows how often the church fathers I mention directly quote from the Gospels.

    It's not an opinion. It's fact. There are HUNDREDS of quotations in just the authors I mention here.

    You are misinformed or simply haven't read them for yourself.

  • Read them, and also obtained the scholarly opinions.

    You either did not read them or have an extremely liberal interpretation of the word "quote".

    No point looking at your DVD's as you are obviously making it up.

  • 1 Clement (c. 68-96 AD):

    ... being especially mindful of the words of the Lord Jesus which He spake, teaching us meekness and long-suffering. For thus He spoke: "Be ye merciful, that ye may obtain mercy; forgive, that it may be forgiven to you ; as ye do, so shall it be done unto you; as ye judge, so shall ye be judged; as ye are kind, so shall kindness be shown to you; with what measure ye mete, with the same it shall be measured to you."

    How is that not a direct quote from the Gospels?

  • Scholars date 1 Clement to 96 CE. It makes reference to Paul, but not to any Gospel.

    Perhaps you are confusing copying with quoting. At this time, versions of documents which later became the Synoptics might have been in circulation, as were Gnostic Jesus sayings.

    Clement could well have copied some phrases and send it off to the Corinthians.

  • Clement also quotes the Old Testament many times, but doesn't name the books. That was the norm because the audience didn't need book, chapter and verse because they knew the Bible better than we do today.

    Skeptics try to say that quotes that come directly from the New Testament are not quotes because they don't name the book.

    That is nonsensical of course, but if you have blind faith, you will invent anything to support that.

  • The problem with the Gnostic theory is that there is no Gnostic Gospel older than 150 AD.

    Clement is 96 AD.

    If so, why do the church fathers prior to this time quote ONLY from the canonical Gospels and not the Gnostic Gospels?

    We don't find Clement writing: "The words of Jesus" and quoting something NOT found in the canonical Gospels!

  • In any case, you are saying there were "versions" of the Gospels quoted by Clement that match direct quotes from the Gospels we have today!

    If these "versions" were contained only the same quotes, are not they THE Gospels?

    How can you prove otherwise? It is blind faith on your part! You are begging the question!

    Now let's refer to the Didache, Polycarp and Ignatius!

  • All gnostic Jesus sayings were purged by the orthodox Christianity to which you subscribe. We will never know to what degree gnostic sayings were, or were not, incorporated in orthodox text.

    You keep confusing the 4 NT gospels, authorship of which was assigned post 150, with fragments of early documents on which they may have been based. Clement never referred to authors or "gospel". You argument about no OT quotes are a red herring. Scripture at that time was limited to the Torah.

  • This argument is "begging the question" -- since the documentary evidence does not support it, you have to invent phantom Gospels that must have contained this material that would support your claim.

    "Alas! This material was "purged" by the Church fathers!" -- Unfortunately there is no evidence for that theory either.

    Most of the Gnostic Gospels mentioned by the Church fathers exist either whole or in fragments. They even quote the Gnostics in their refutations.

    So much for the "purge"!

  • The Gospel accts have been backed up by the information from the Dead Sea Scrolls too.

  • Be warned the Dead Sea Scrolls/Qumran Documents.

    As a reference for christians are a mine field. That's why the Church ran a 45year campaign to hide, obscure and marginalize the docs. Many Doc's disappeared to the Vatican Archives and have never been seen.

    One Monk translating a doc given to him in error walked away agnostic.

    Showed an Essene political movement that was the pre-cursor to christianity.

    It debunks Jesus (The wicked Priest/The Man of a Lie) as no more divine than you or I.

  • The Vatican never had control over the Dead Sea scrolls. The scrolls were cataloged after each was found prior to being translated. After each one was translated, all were finally published.

    There are no DSS that have disappeared.

    You are confusing the Da Vinci Code with historical fact.

  • See:

    The Real Jesus (DVD): Myth #4 (6 of 10)

    Myth #4: Jesus did not claim to be God

  • Funny! God feels the same way about atheists.

    "He who sits in the heavens laughs."

  • Wow, so you speak for God, do you?

  • JESUS was not God is not God, He is the son of "GOD" get it right. If i am the mayer of a city and I'm having problems with an area of that city, and I send my son to fix it with a few legal powers, that does not make him mayor of the city. Altho he should respected as if his father would be, because he is there in the mayor / father's name.

  • I always was told that the father, the son and the holy ghost were one !!!!

  • You don't understand the concept of the trinity. The proto-orthodox church fathers ran into problems with the notion of Jesus as divine *son* of God. The problem was that a separate divine being would contradict monotheism. They "solved" the problem by conceptualizing Jesus the Son, God the Father, and the Holy Spirit as manifestations of a single divine being. In other words, an artificial contrivance.

  • please everybody Jesus is not god he has never claimed and any misconceptions where created by the corrupt Vatican to let u astray not other entity is worth worship but god and not Jesus. Jesus admittedly claimed he is nothing without his father

  • Jesus claimed to be God in a number of places in the NT.

    This is covered in detail in part 6 of the video.
