If Jesus were to come back right now, his own followers would be the first to crucify him a second time.
"Followers"
And then tell him to turn the other cheek so he could slap that too.
Oh, but you probably don't know about Supply Side Jesus, the new Jesus. He'd be right up there with the fat walrus.
I don't think Jesus was a theistic Christian
He probably wouldn’t even know the word Christos. Since he was from the sticks and almost certainly monolingual.
He certainly did not speak Hebrew as it was a dead language ant that point. Aramaic descended from Hebrew and was the spoken language. It’s like saying Italians speak Latin because they’re catholic and their language derives from Latin. We even have him speaking Aramaic on the cross. And if the false messiahs were as provincial as jesus they were illiterate. What is your source for “little Christs”? Edit: and it goes without saying that christos is Greek, and while evangelicals like to say that jbird spoke koine, it’s wishful thinking intended to wave away textual inconsistencies.
Ofc he was theistic ... he was a Jew.
And ofc he wasn't a Christian because that religion only developed because of his death.
That's my point, he was Jewish, not a Christian.
