If Jesus Christ were alive today what church do you think he would be the most pleased with: Catholic, Orthodox, Or Protestant?
He'd die of shock when he stepped out and saw horseless carts speeding by and everyone around him shouting in their weird tongues.
>>1143344
Which ever is most ready to fight the poor treatment of the weak and forgive sinners truly seeking a fresh start. These seem to be his main things both of which you could describe as compassion.
>>1143365
So id assume Catholic, especially with pope Francis.
>>1143365
>le jesus was a commie meme
>>1143344
SHITPOST
>>>/pol/, >>>/qst/, maybe >>>/b/
This is fantasy roleplay
I think he'd be happy with how many people are still trying to follow his advice. Jesus don't play favorites.
>>1143344
According to Catholics, Catholic. According to Orthodoxes, Orthodox. According to Protestants, Protestant. According to Muslims, Muslim.
Every Abrahamic claims to be the final and most complete version of the religion.
>>1143344
Eastern Rite Catholic obviously
He's never going to fucking appear you're wasting your time waiting just like countless generations of morons before you wasted theirs.
>>1143344
Jesus would rebuke them all and be a communist.
>>1143428
But Marx was a Christkiller
>>1143431
Pretty sure Romans are extinct, bro.
>>1143434
Jews killed Jesus.
I think he'd be pleased that his people established their own state (Israel)
He wouldn't really understand Christianity though.
Acephalous, primitivist, cripto-Jewish branch, so probably Jeovah's Witnesses
>>1143446
I feel like he'd be surprised his people don't believe he saved them from their sins.
Probably would be pissed regarding treatment of homosexuals.
I mean, he did not say one word about them.
That's assuming he wanted to create a new religion at all.
>>1143440
Roman Jews.
>>1143440
RIDF get the fuck out.
1st century Messianic Judaism (not Talmudic Luciferic Babylonian sorcery that is Judaism now) with heavy gnostic and Essene influence as well as some legalistic undertones
None
>>1143369
>pope Francis
But Francis is the opposite of what he said...
>>1143344
Probably hate everyone and maybeeeee appreciate Gnostics
>>1144198
He is probably the first pope in few hundred years who is actually doing what Jesus did, so I don't know what are you talking about.
>>1144276
We have actually had several centuries of good popes now. Francis isn't really superior to the rest of them, he just has better PR.
>>1143344
None of them for they have all twisted his message
>>1144276
>falling for populist bullshit and current fads
I bet you like John Oliver....
>>1143344
>What mosque
Iss would be a Salafi, just like all the other prophets.
>>1144335
>literally CURRENT YEAR
>still not liking John Oliver
>>1143344
I think he'd be confused and self-impressed like the narcissist he was that his life would be so influential.
>>1143344

He'd be a Jew, though a heterodox one not affiliated with any mainstream Jewish denomination.
>>1143376
Well he certainly advocated progressive views and the protection of the weak and the poor, going as far as to basically say in some parables "if you're rich you're likely not a good person". Jesus's message was "hey let's chill with all the strict rules and let's love one another" hence the permission to not circumsize and to eat pork and the dying for our sins stuff.
Hardcore conservative christians are jews who don't know it. The whole protestant meme of "god wants me to prosper" is heretic. And well the catholics and orthodox are heretic as well for worshipping false idols (Mary and saints) and for putting rite before belief (all the fucking incense and robes...)
>>1143344
he wouldn't be pleased at all and would have to start all over cuz the majority of people are clingy and superstitious more than they believe in god
I think he'd take more interest in the heads of the world's dairy markers, especially the cheesemakers.
First off Jesus isn't a man.
more spirit than physical.
the bible has been rewritten and warped.
I would think gnostic
the apocalypse of peter would be Jesus view of christian leadership ect..
The One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church.
>Ethnophyletistic Eastern "Orthodoxy"
Disappointment.
>Protestantism
Sadness.
>Islam
Abhorrence.
So how do I become a Gnostic Christian?
Probably some branch of Protestantism or Orthodoxy. Especially when he realizes the history of the Church.
>>1143344
Where's Mormonism?
>>1147253
in the trash
>>1143344
None, he didn't want them to be separated, they did it by Themselves, without his opinion.
Just like our prophet, what does this happen to all religions after the prophet dies.
>>1147478
>said the fag that follows the bible like it's the Quran
>>1145544
I have a hard time believing that Christ wanted the church to have as close a relationship with state power as the Catholic church has had.
>>1143344
I wonder how would he react to Bhuddism.
>>1147253
They're protestant apostates.
Joseph Smith was a conman whose deceitful works have been thoroughly debunked.

>But even if we or an angel from heaven should preach to you a gospel contrary to the one we preached to you, let him be accursed. As we have said before, so now I say again: If anyone is preaching to you a gospel contrary to the one you received, let him be accursed.

Much of what we know of Buddha is passed down from legends and oral traditions. There are no written works mentioning him until several centuries after his death. The earliest written texts detailing his life and teachings are dated nearly 500 years after his death. Particular details about him, including finer details of his philosophy, are impossible to know with any certainty.
>See to it that no one takes you captive by philosophy and empty deceit, according to human tradition, according to the elemental spirits of the world, and not according to Christ. For in Him the whole fullness of deity dwells bodily, and you have been filled in Him, who is the head of all rule and authority.

the fuck niggas.
I'm not a Quaker myself, but the loose and non-hierarchical style, the focus on community and positivity (in addition to all the Christian stuff)... clearly has Jesus written all over it.
I was raised Catholic, but am basically passive atheist these days. Still, if I were going to join any church though, it'd be the Religious Society of Friends.
>>1147478
Jesus didn't give a fuck about no Bible. And certainly not any old testament jewy folk tales.
>>1143344
He's more of a one-on-one kind of God.
>>1147478
>rebukes a large amount of the Old Testament
>thinking he'd like people who still cling to it
>>1147656
Your works are as filthy rags to a holy God.
>>1147920
Jesus didn't rebuke any of the bible, at all, ever, and in fact inspired the writing of all of it.
>>1147926
You know nothing about me. Focus on your own works, pal. Faith alone isn't going to save you.
Do not be deceived.
>>1147933
>Jesus didn't rebuke any of the bible,
Durrrrrrr, it didn't exist until hundreds of years after his death, idiot.
"inspired" ≠ sanctioned.
Jesus was against orthodoxy, arbitrary authority and most certainly against literalism/fundamentalism.
>>1147548
like the one the East had with the Emperor and the one the Russians have with Putin?
>>1148011
I have the same problem with the Orthodox church.
>>1147999
>Jesus was a good person therefore he agreed with me and my modern ideology
When will this meme end?
>>1148051
Christ is King of kings, he shouldnt respond to anyone
>>1147945
It doesn't matter who you are.
All of men's works are as filthy rags to a holy God.
>>1147949
Can't watch the video, but the answer is "no, not in this age".
>>1147999
There were 39 books in the bible when Jesus taught them in the Temple. He inspired all of them.
>>1147548
Absolute power corrupts absolutely. The rise of Christianity in the dark ages had little to do with faith and a lot to do with power. I'm sure many did believe in it genuinely, but if you're some pagan lord being offered the chance of a wider community of swords and shields, gold and foreign pooty-tang, it's not all that hard to say goodbye to the old guys and hello Christ.
>>1148065
That is not at all what I said, and for the record I'm pretty much atheist.
When will you develop real arguments instead of crying about the way a message is delivered?
>>1148140

The claim was that there was no bible when Jesus was walking around 2000 years ago.
There were the 39 books of the OT extant, the tanakh, completed 400 years prior to His birth, and Jesus taught them in the Temple. A real temple, with real Jews in it,
>>1148206
Are you really this stupid? You're claiming the collection of ancient Jewish fairytales and political recrods are the Bible? Do you understand at all what the Bible even is?
>>1148221
>collection of ancient Jewish fairytales
Modern archeology keeps proving them true, kiddo.
>>1143344
He would be a Jew trying to convert other Jews.
The original Assyrian church
>>1143344
Buddhists
>>1143344
He would be shot in cold blood by some intel agency
>>1149645
This, sort of... except he was kinda into a particular eschatology and being the son of God,
>>1149772
Pure Land Buddhism then lol.
Modern Anabaptists such as the Brethen Church.
>>1143344
Well, the one true faith oc. As is clear from your pic.
