What color skin is that man whom died on the cross??
475554
olive skinned or the color of the modern arab. This is based on ancient manuscripts and tomb paintings in egypt showing what the jews looked like.

I cant stand it when people think Jesus was a blue eyed blonde. That's what organized religion wants u to believe especially the Baptist. I believe he was dark skinned and had black hair. I am a white person with blonde hair and blue eyes and people get mad at me when I tell them this is what I think Jesus looked like.

artistic license.  What Jesus actually looked like is unknown.  He was definately of Middle Eastern decent.  He most likely was unshaven.  He probably had shorter hair (as was the common jewish style at the time) unlike the long haired interpretations.

You sound so very angry. Are you in hell already?  Calling people inbreds because they believe in Jesus doesn't sound very enlightened or intellectual to me.  If you don't want to see Jesus as the way, then follow your own spiritual path in whatever way your soul leads you ... but be kind to others and respect their beliefs.  I wish you peace and love in your spiritual search.

Christ started the entire charistian religous adventure. Would it be fair to say the Christianity is a religion and a race. A race that is poulated by blood descendants of jesus? Unlikely.\n\nOr, the first jew was Abraham who took the commandment from God outside of the cty of Ur, check out the old testament for this. Before that Abraqham was not a Jew, just like Christ was Jewish befor he converted to Christianity by his death by some charistians account. Therefore the only true members of the Jewish race would be blood descendants of Abraham. Again not a likely defintion or race event.\n\nBut to be precise here is the definition of race(noun)\na group of persons related by common descent or heredity.  \n2. a population so related.  \n3. Anthropology. a. any of the traditional divisions of humankind, the commonest being the Caucasian, Mongoloid, and Negro, characterized by supposedly distinctive and universal physical characteristics: no longer in technical use.  \nb. an arbitrary classification of modern humans, sometimes, esp. formerly, based on any or a combination of various physical characteristics, as skin color, facial form, or eye shape, and now frequently based on such genetic markers as blood groups.  \nc. a human population partially isolated reproductively from other populations, whose members share a greater degree of physical and genetic similarity with one another than with other humans.  \n \n4. a group of tribes or peoples forming an ethnic stock: the Slavic race.  \n5. any people united by common history, language, cultural traits, etc.: the Dutch race.  \n6. the human race or family; humankind: Nuclear weapons pose a threat to the race.  \n7. Zoology. a variety; subspecies.  \n8. a natural kind of living creature: the race of fishes.  \n9. any group, class, or kind, esp. of persons: Journalists are an interesting race.  \n\nThe only definitions for race that come close are"\n 4. a group of tribes or peoples forming an ethnic stock: the Slavic race.  \n5. any people united by common history, language, cultural traits, etc.: the Dutch race\n\nJews may or may not have developed from a common tribe or ethnic stock. If you believe they did, the 12 tribes of Israel...then Yes Jews are a race.\n\nIf you believe that jews are united by a common history...you are making a wek argumenbt as Jews can be found in many countries and cultures are are unrelated by a common history, language or culture.\n\nNo...jews only have a religion in common. They are a very diverse froup of individuals spread arounfd the world living within cultures and speaking diverse languages so they are not tryuly a race as such.

Well, according to American Standards, one drop of "black blood" makes a person black. Jesus was decended from David through Soloman. Solomans mother, Sheba, was Black, and from the royal family of Sheba, a nation of very dark (and in her case FIONE) people.  Therefore, by American standards, Jesus was indeed black. In Revelation, Jesus brother describes him as having "Skin of copper and hair of wool" sounds like a black man to me!!!\n\n(and I'm white BTW)

His earthly human existence died, not Him Himself.\nHe was resurrected and is still alive today but not in His human form.

I understand the cross is concrete and only clad in granite.\n\nBTW, this was built using Republican prisoners from the losing side of the civil war, and many died and more were tortured during its construction.

he died on the date of the holliday.\n   It's celebrated because he was a Christian missionary to Ireland and Scottland!  He saved many people and stated how God is three in one (Father, Son, Holy Spirit) like a shamrock!

When Jesus died,it was a sad event,but there were people who went through alot more suffering than he did.Can you imagined being inslaved all your life?Can you imagin being experimented on?Can you imagin being burned to death?All through centries,people have suffered terribly.What makes Jesus so special?He wasn't the only person who was tortured and cruxified.Some believe that he never sinned and that he died for our sins,but I disagree.Jesus was only human,not a god.Of course he sinned according to society's standards.Lust is a sin.You mean to tell me that he never looked at a beautiful woman in awe.I doubt it.Jesus was a man with testosterone hormons.I highly doubt that he wasn't attracted to woman at all.\n\nJesus was only a man.\n\n\nNow to answer your second question.Jews and Romans were responsible for his death.Not Jews and Romans of today though.I don't understand why people blame Jews and Romans of today for the murder of Jesus.They have nothing to do with it.just like the white people of today havenothing to do with Africans being inslaved and abused.

Jesus was a Jew.\n\nHe wasn't Black, \nHe wasn't White,\nHe wasn't Chinese,\nHe was a Jew.\n\nThe Bible is very clear on his heritage.\nSome people just choose to believe what they want to.\n(I'm not a Christian either, but this question has a very simple answer).

Mainstream Christianity has always maintained that god's son died on a cross to save people from their sin. But other Christians rejected this and said that it is not his death that can accomplish anything, but rather his life and teaching. I agree with the latter (though it is very unorthodox and wonderfully heretical). And I agree with your thinking and I cannot see how the death of a man on a cross can possibly achieve anything. Such primitive practices go back to when people believed that god can't do anything without seeing blood ("without the shedding of blood there can be no remission of sin").

I am so glad you are still seeking the one true Son of God.\nThe historical Jesus was born in a carpenters home. He learned the tricks of the trade from his earthly father. He was a Jew so I am sure He was different than what you have seen in pictures and movies. He probably had short hair with the long hair hanging like sideburns as the Jewish custom. I believe he was strong since carpenter work was hard work. I believe he was short and dark complected as were most men of the time.\nTalk about a lovable character, He took a beating, and torture, and even death, because He loved us so much.
