How Do You See Jesus?
How do you see Jesus?.... JESUS has/have been translated into all kinds of things: My help in time of need! My bridge over trouble waters! My lawyer in a court room! My doctor in a sick room, etc....We have to remember, people have seen Jesus as Black, Brown,Yellow--and even Blue-eyed with blonde hair....Are any of them more correct than Elton's view?... I really believe that people conceptualize Jesus to help them understand and grasp who HE is....Therefore, in the case of Elton John, I really believe that's what he was doing....However I think he is going have a hard time "proving" in the Scriptures that Jesus was GAY...In Elton John interview with Parade magazine the singer talked about a lot of things including Jesus being gay.... "He said “I think Jesus was a compassionate, super-intelligent gay man who understood human problems"...So the question becomes, Who is Jesus Christ, really?Is Jesus Christ only love? I mean, not according to man’s opinion, but according to the truth of God’s Word.... Yes! Jesus is loving....But, is that His only attribute? No, for just as Jesus is love, so also is Jesus holy and righteous.... And we must know and understand that Jesus Christ, the Holy and Righteous God, must and will punish all lost sinners at the judgment....If our Jesus is not greatly to be feared as well as greatly to be praised, then perhaps we have another Jesus, a Jesus of our own making, and not the Jesus of the Bible...Again how do you see Jesus?
