> **monavis** you have set up such a filter you can’t see and can’t understand. You set up straw man arguments saying I know Jesus through men, though I met Jesus, and many more have - your filter just will not allow God coming to people to your loss. Second Yes His kingdom has come with power for millions back then till today, the harvest is ongoing and Jesus’ word is was and will be always true.

I forgot to add to my one post…I did not say you met Jesus through men, but everything you know about him that you were taught or read was from humans and since you believe, and want to believe those humans, you are able to use your imagination and think you met him. If that helps you it sure doesn’t bother me, but doesn’t convince me that you actually met any one. There is no one who can say for sure how Jesus looked, and there are many, many, pictures of what someone ‘thought’ he may look like,just as the people who claim to have seen his mother, all describe her as looking different than each other. There are people in mental hospitals who claim to see George Washington and other people from the past, the mind can do strange things. Desire can play a huge part on the mind.
