Will he be a regular man (or woman)?  Or the son of G-d?  Or G-d Himself wrapped in a physical human body?  Does Scripture give any clues as to when He will come?

Christian Prophecy - Seeking the Jewish Messiah\nChristian prophecy is really Jewish prophecy. I'm a Jew, and here's how I discovered that incredible truth… \n\nI grew up in an orthodox Jewish home in New York, and several years ago I came to believe that Jesus (Yeshua is the Hebrew way to say the Greek name Jesus) is truly the Jewish Messiah. Believing that Yeshua is the Messiah wasn't easy. I had many, many questions, and I spent months examining the evidences and seeking G-d's answers. During my journey, I constantly reminded myself of a very important verse from the Jewish Scriptures (the Tenach). The Jewish prophet Jeremiah records the words of G-d, "And ye shall seek me, and find [me], when ye shall search for me with all your heart. (Jeremiah 29:13) \n\nThe Jewish Scriptures (The Torah, The Prophets, and The Writings, which make up the Tenach or the Jewish Bible) paint a very clear picture of who the Moshiach (Messiah) will be when He eventually comes to the nation of Israel. In fact, there are over 300 prophecies in the Hebrew Scriptures, which detail many facts about this coming Messiah/king. Here is just a sampling (and remember, all these verses come from the Jewish Bible): \n\nMessiah was to be born at Bethlehem: Micah 5:1.\nMessiah would be from the tribe of Judah: Genesis 49:10. \nMessiah would present himself by riding on an ass: Zechariah 9:9. \nMessiah would be tortured to death: Psalm 22. \nMessiah would arrive before the destruction of the Second Temple: Daniel 9:24-27. \nMessiah's life would match a particular description, including suffering, silence at his arrest and trial, death and burial in a rich man's tomb, and resurrection: Isaiah 52:13-53:12. \n\n\nChristian Prophecy - Fulfilled in the Jewish Messiah\nChristian prophecy is remarkably specific. In detail as to lineage, birthplace, time and lifestyle, Jesus matched the Messianic expectations of the Hebrew Scriptures. The record of this fulfillment is to be found in the pages of the New Testament. As you review the more extensive list of Jewish Messianic prophecies, allow G-d to speak to your heart and your mind as you seek HIS truth. \n\nInterestingly, the Jewish Scriptures paint seemingly two different pictures about the Messiah to come. For one, they talk about the Messiah who will come as the reigning King, who will usher in a period of unprecedented peace on earth. But many verses talk about the Moshiach who will be a suffering servant, who will suffer and die for the sins of the people. For many hundreds of years the rabbis believed that there would be two Messiahs, the King Moshiach ben David, and the suffering servant Moshiach Ben Joseph. The rabbis, unfortunately, were not able to see that one Messiah would accomplish both missions. \n\nChristian Prophecy - The Jewish Messiah Stands at the Door and Knocks\nChristian prophecy was indeed fulfilled in the Jewish Messiah. Yeshua came to the "lost sheep of the House of Israel" 2000 years ago. He came as Isaiah chapter 53 so clearly states, to die and "suffer" for the sins of the Jewish people. He came to the nation of Israel, but was rejected. If the Jews would have accepted His "once for all" atonement for sins, Yeshua would have ushered in the Kingdom of Heaven at that point in history. But the Jews did not recognize Him. Even though they had the Word of G-d in their own Scriptures, and more than 300 descriptions of who He would be when He comes, they missed Him. As a result, the Good News of God's Kingdom went forth to the Gentile world, and for 2000 years both Jew and Gentile have come together in Moshiach, looking forward to His soon return as reigning King, just as the rabbis have always expected. \n\nAlthough the nation of Jews rejected Yeshua when He came, G-d has always, through the last 2000 years, kept a "remnant" of believing Jews for Himself. I and many thousands of Jews alive today, have received Yeshua as the

It's a spiritual battle.  God has placed in each man a desire to know Him and in innate knowledge of Him.  Either people put Him in themselves or they replace Him with wooden idols, money, success or whatever.  Peace :-)

"For the Son of Man is to go just as it is written of Him; but woe to that man by whom the Son of Man is betrayed! It would have been good for that man if he had not been born." \n\nMark 14:21 \n\nDoes that really sound like someone you want for a role model?  The gospel of Judas was excluded from the Bible for good reason; it was not the inspired Word of God, and is therefore heresy.  The Bible clearly warns against this.\n\n"I testify to everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: if anyone adds to them, God will add to him the plagues which are written in this book;"\n\nRevelation 22:18

I will be praying that Jesus will reveal to You that He is real - He is alive.  Experience over-rides the words written in mere books.  I know Jesus - He is awesome - hope you get to know Him too!!  Psalm 14:1 & 53:1 ... The fool hath said in his heart that there is no God ...

Well considering that Julie from Boise had a message from Him in which she was told that she would bear His son on Earth (to be called Macaroni) I'm thinking male.\n\nBut, He is a deity after all, so why need to bother with fiddly decisions like gender?\n\nAlthough, I suppose the debate over gender could lead to the first great schism in the church?\n\nMaybe there could be a Council of Pasta-Roni?

You are probably a little off on that, but you never know.  However, just thinking back about how he would get upset with people concerned with money and those things he would probably shop at Mervins or Ross or something like that.  I am certain though he wouldn't dress according to what was "in" and he probably wouldn't be rockin out too much (although I hope he doesn't mind my listening to stuff like RATM). I guess the bible does say he will be wearing white when he returns, right? Or was it red? One of them, haven't read Revelations in a while.

If you can grasp what eternity is, you can also understand how difficult things in the physical are puny in the eternal. God is a spirit and is not limited by mass. So can the personage of God fit in the human frame? It could fit in a ladybug if He wanted to--He's spirit and eternal. Can He co-exist as both man in the flesh and God? Why not? He's eternal.

...hmmm...I notice that your list doesn't have this prophecy which clearly foreshadows the role Jesus would play in our salvation.\n\nIsaiah 53:3  He was despised and rejected by men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief; and as one from whom men hide their faces he was despised, and we esteemed him not.  (4)  Surely he has borne our griefs and carried our sorrows; yet we esteemed him stricken, smitten by God, and afflicted.  (5)  But he was wounded for our transgressions; he was crushed for our iniquities; upon him was the chastisement that brought us peace, and with his stripes we are healed.  (6)  All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the LORD has laid on him the iniquity of us all.  \n\n(7)  He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth; like a lamb that is led to the slaughter, and like a sheep that before its shearers is silent, so he opened not his mouth.  (8)  By oppression and judgment he was taken away; and as for his generation, who considered that he was cut off out of the land of the living, stricken for the transgression of my people?  (9)  And they made his grave with the wicked and with a rich man in his death, although he had done no violence, and there was no deceit in his mouth.  \n\n(10)  Yet it was the will of the LORD to crush him; he has put him to grief; when his soul makes an offering for sin, he shall see his offspring; he shall prolong his days; the will of the LORD shall prosper in his hand.  (11)  Out of the anguish of his soul he shall see and be satisfied; by his knowledge shall the righteous one, my servant, make many to be accounted righteous, and he shall bear their iniquities.  (12)  Therefore I will divide him a portion with the many, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong, because he poured out his soul to death and was numbered with the transgressors; yet he bore the sin of many, and makes intercession for the transgressors.\n\nNeither do you confront the prophecy of Daniel which when correctly interpreted points to the exact time that Jesus was here on earth. http://www.aloha.net/~mikesch/dan927.htm\n\nDaniel 9:24  Seventy weeks are determined upon thy people and upon thy holy city, to finish the transgression, and to make an end of sins, and to make reconciliation for iniquity, and to bring in everlasting righteousness, and to seal up the vision and prophecy, and to anoint the most Holy.  (25)  Know therefore and understand, that from the going forth of the commandment to restore and to build Jerusalem unto the Messiah the Prince shall be seven weeks, and threescore and two weeks: the street shall be built again, and the wall, even in troublous times.\n\nBoth of these are definitely Messianic prophecies and both of them were fulfilled by Jesus.\n\nhttp://www.clarifyingchristianity.com/m_prophecies.shtml

I believe that God is neither male nor female, but rather a Spirit. He has both male and female qualities. For example, He has the protective, strong side that can be classified with males and the caring, compassionate side that we identify as feminine. He created both man and woman to be like Him, not only externally but internally as well. Jesus, however, was male. In order to come down to earth and become human, He needed to have a gender. But God Himself is neither. Hope this helps, God bless!

The question within your question, "Is God just?" The answer is yes. King David lost his baby due to his sin, and he declared, "I shall go to him, but he shall not come to me." There is an age of accountability where we become responsible for our destination. I believe it is 13 since that is the age a Jewish boy becomes a man, but I have no reference for this assumption. But in all this, I trust God will be just. That is what you should trust in as well, alwaysheaven.

Not like angels. We will be raised in a glorified body, like the one that Jesus was rasied in at His resurrection.\nColossians 1:18\nHe [Jesus] is also head of the body, the church; and He is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead, so that He Himself will come to have first place in everything.\n1 John 3:2\nBeloved, now we are children of God, and it has not appeared as yet what we will be We know that when He [Jesus]appears, we will be like Him, because we will see Him just as He is.

We don't know who he will be for sure. We will recognize him by several ways. Reinstitution and corruption of worship\nin the temple, all the world agreeing on his leadership,and several other distort attempts at appearing to fulfill prophecy. "No man will know the day, or the hour.

Prophecies to Identify the Messiah, Which Jesus Does Not Fulfill:\n\n1) Matthew 1:23 says that Jesus (the messiah) would be called Immanuel, which means "God with us."  Yet no one, not even his parents, call him Immanuel at any point in the bible.\n\n2) The Messiah must be a physical descendant of David (Romans 1:3 & Acts 2:30).  Yet, how could Jesus meet this requirement since his genealogies in Matthew 1 and Luke 3 show he descended from David through Joseph, who was not his natural father because of the Virgin Birth. Hence, this prophecy could not have been fulfilled.\n\n3) Isaiah 7:16 seems to say that before Jesus had reached the age of maturity, both of the Jewish countries would be destroyed.  Yet there is no mention of this prophecy being fulfilled in the New Testament with the coming of Jesus, hence this is another Messiah prophecy not fulfilled.

Definitely Jesus will return as per his words.\n\nMATTHEW 24:30 -  And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. \n\nMuslims also believe the Jesus will return.
