Why Jesus for God's sake?

12:05 PM 11/12/06 · It's so interesting how the littlest thing can cause conflict. Christianity is, more or less, Judaism with just the tiniest difference in opinion regarding who the Messiah is. I've even heard it said that there are those that think the fact that the heads of the Hebrew faith, back then...not now, were backing the Roman Empire in

How long was Jesus alive before the Messiah tag was attached?
Before he was born. but it is more dominent when he turned 30 and got baptized by john the baptist.

When Jesus was established as the Messiah, what was it about him that made some of the faithful disbelieve this?

Jesus, was destined to be the messiah, before he was born. he went off the radaar for a few years, and then when he turned thirty he got baptized by john the bap.... Why some of the faithful disbelive it? well its alot like today. Jesus stepped on toes, and while the "faithful" of the day looked good, Jesus knew they werent. They didnt like what Jesus was preaching, because it made them look bad. Just read the gosples, and youll get why i think that. People havent changed. Many people still dont like jesus, and dont believe in him...beacause well they think either its to good to be true, or its a contradiction....which it isnt.

On the offchance they make another movie, and you know they will, who do you think should play Jesus?
hmmm. i dont konw. i think it would be cool if mel gib. actually played Jesus :D

• I'm afraid that 1 - 20 don't count. you're qoting Bible passages at me when the information requested is from the Torah; probably should've mentioned that but had assumed it was a given. Before he showed up, as is written/typed up there there was no Bible.
• While I suppose spiritual niceties might argue this...by alive I meant after he was born.

Oops!
