I agree with your sentiments but we shouldn't be downplaying Jesus's importance at all just to please the masses. Political correctness is terrible and it's ruining us, Jesus is the son of God not a God but the God the one and only Jesus, he is our Lord and savior we have to be washed in his blood fully submerged baptized. Or else we will not see the kingdom of heaven! No more political correctness no more trying to please non-believers tickling ears does nothing but prolong the inevitable which is eternal damnation for not believing in God and accepting Jesus as the son of God!! Denying our father and his son, our savior is the only sin that is unforgivable!!! Praise be with all of you saints!

[@geraldbrienza4474]

@@StephenMillerTheWriter there is no “eye witness” testimony from non Christian sources. The first words ever written were from Paul, 30+ years after his supposed death. Half of those epistles are fraudulent, many are missing, others with interpolations, additions, deletions and misinterpretations. No first century historian records his life. 50 years beyond, Tacitus briefly mentions Christians (only shows they existed, which no one doubts.) and in Josephus’ Antiquities of the Jews, the Testimonium Flavianum, which has been debunked as a pious fraud interpolation (probably by Eusebius in the 4th century.) So basically, nothing.

I don’t see what you mean. There is nothing about Christianity or the teachings of Jesus that is racist. Christianity embraces men and women slave and free Jew and non-Jew. It is a faith for people of all races. And people of every race are counted among the Christians.

[@StephenMillerTheWriter]

@@MistressMary...22-u9j Not the "left" people I know, who are Christian, by the way. It's pretty easy to spot a racist, like some key political leaders who enable white supremists and see nothing wrong with white police shooting unarmed black people who are not threatening them, and sometimes running away, and in one shooting a sleeping woman without repercussions.

[@akintunde007]

Neither a party nor its flag bearer can be arbitrarily assigned the title of 'God's chosen' simply because they believe in and adhere to a handful of commandments. Let us put it this way, if Jesus returned today, would He look at either political party and say 'these are my children in whom I am well pleased?'. Surely we all know the answer. Christianity is greater than us following a handful of commandments at the expense of others and feeling righteous about it. A closer look at the political system in the US shows that each party has some policies/ elements that align with the Christian faith. None of them is an absolute fit...and neither should it be. These are man-made systems and therefore cannot align entirely with the will or nature of God. As a result, christians will and should vote for either party depending on their challenges. If your primary issue is related to immigration, vote for someone who will solve the problem. If your burning platform is medical insurance, vote for a candidate who will support that. It is presumptious to believe that all Christians should vote for one party and if they do not, then they are opposing the faith. This is political deception at its highest and as children of God, we should not fall for it. Jesus never tried to change the Roman government. This reality got even the disciples confused as they still asked Him when the Kingdom would be restored to Israel. Jesus always maintained that His kingdom was not of this world. He focused on the hearts of people, reconciling them to God and getting them ready to enter into His everlasting kingdom. The Book of Revelations tells us that sooner or later all world systems will bring persecution upon those of the true faith. This is happening already across the world. Not just in politics, but in schools, offices, and even in some churches. For sure it is happening to different degrees in different places at different times. However, no president or governor will change that. It is foretold that it will be so as this entire world system comes to an end. Our focus should be on training our children in the way of the Lord, living a life that is pleasing to Him and preaching the gospel so that others too may know Him and come into the everlasting kingdom. May the Lord help us to that.

[@dancarpentieri7762]

@Andrew Harper spinning the fact that Jews killing Jesus is typical liberalism.

[@dancarpentieri7762]

Roman crucifixion was a horrible atrocity that sexually humiated the person nailed up. David Tombs and Gunnar Samuelsson are onto something when they both discuss Seneca's _acuta crux_ in their reviews of John Granger Cook's _Crucifixion in the Mediterranean World._ They both sharply criticised his blindness to the high probability that the extreme and highest penalty involved some kind of penetration. Are you familiar with this?

[@StephenMillerTheWriter]

It has been a couple of years since I've read Samuelsson. Scholars can get a bit schoolyard-nasty with each other, when there's a disagreement. My reading focused on what Roman and Greek and Jewish and Christian writers in the first few centuries AD said about crucifixion. I did read of impalement through the private parts, much like the Assyrians did to the Judeans at Lachish around 700 BC (documented on Assyrian stone images; I think in the British Museum now). But I did not come away with the perception that Romans had a protocol for crucifixion. They tortured and crucified people in creative and wretchedly evil ways. Our attempts to imagine what Jesus went through and how he was hung on what could have been a cross or a stake are futile. The Bible says almost nothing about the method and the instruments that the Romans used. Most of us have an established portrait of the Crucifixion in our head. The image comes from paintings and from a first-century picture of graffiti. But those are artistic guesses. God knows what his Son suffered. We can only guess. However, try to preach that on Good Friday.

[@steffenritter7497]

I think that the closest any movie makers came to the crucifixion of Christ was Mel Gibson's "The Passion of the Christ". It was brutal to see in that film. But then again, crucifixion was meant to be brutal, as a warning to every non-Roman what the State would be willing to do to them. By the way, in that movie, Jim Caviezel (who played Jesus) dislocated a shoulder while on the Cross, and was struck twice by lightning, according to his own accounts. Another time, while carrying the cross, he fell down, his mouth in the sand, and biting his lip, in the process. So when blood comes from his mouth when on the Cross, it's actually Jim's own blood.

[@StephenMillerTheWriter]

The Romans probably didn't treat Jesus like a movie star, either.

[@edwardmiessner6502]

He also had to have open heart surgery because he hanged on that thing for 8 hours a day, 35 days straight. They could have done all the shooting of the actual Crucifixion in one day. Mel Gibson is one sick puppy

[@derekardito2032]

Mel Gibson is a convicted racial bigot, a professed Jew hater, he was indoctrinated by his parents in a sick Catholic Christian sect, a sect that still to this day in spite of latter Day Pope's admitting and apologise for blaming the Jews for killing the myth man Jesus, still hold the Jews responsible. Religions are designed to create division, the two Abrahamic proselytising ones command their followers kill all infidel, something Christians have done with gusto for centuries and theocratic Islamist states still do to this day, they even kill each other by the millions to this day, just on differing dogma, what sick ,vile, disgusting religions, what sick vile people support those religions, we all know the Mel Gibson's, the Bin Laden's you are either for them or are an atheist.

That's true. I've read his work. But the original Greek usage had morphed by Roman times. Romans seemed to use the word more broadly. It was just about anything you could hang a person from: post, cross, tree. There are times when Romans used the Greek word and then described the instrument of torture as a cross with two posts.
