No. By all accounts they are much more tolerant and peaceful than the ones of his time. He'd smite them all for being pussies. Seriously. Read the bible and tell me I'm wrong.
He would recognize them as they killed him, again. His followers did not follow orthodox Christianity as it came to be known hundreds of years later.
I thought he was a Jew. Only text written back then in that place was by the Jews. They wrote the first Bible, Old Testament, remember.
He would ignore the christians, and present himself to the Jews as the messiah...returning to claim his people.
Another thought was inside my mind when I wrote that, sorry, I've corrected. Thanks for pointing that out. Please Register or Log in to view the hidden image!
Jesus rebelled against an orthodox religious tradition that claimed a monopoly on truth. They used that monopoly to accumulate wealth and enforce traditional values. Few of today's Christians would accept anything so radical as a Jesus. They would certainly align themselves with the authoritarian rulers of our empire.
1)There where no Christians until the day of Pentecost. 2) He loves us for our love for His mercy and longsuffering towards us. So no. He will not be smiting us. All Praise The Ancient Of Days
1. There were no Christians until Paul invented Christianity. 2. Jesus doesnt smite. Why bother when you can promise hell instead.
Well the people we think of as the first Christians were, like Jesus, Jews. So it might be odd to find that Jews are specifically not followers of Jesus - except for Jews for Jesus.
I am quite sure Jesus would find it fascinating the version of him put forward in the Bible and then the interpretations of the version(s) of him presented there. And then he'd shock the lot of them by pointing out what was incorrect.
