Jesus Christ, Real Person

I
As a person trained in Bible and soft sciences, it is necessary - at the risk of disagreeing agreeably - to proclaim Jesus of Nazareth was a real person if one accepts the Bible. Sadly, since Jesus was crucified about 33 AD or C.E., at least 40 messiahs or CHRISTS were accepted by Jewish groups. One Moses of Cyprus led "believers" to drown. More are familiar with Bar Kokbah's false Messianic game. Without the Old Testament & New (both) to guide us, we pretend we ARE the AUTHORITY on Jesus of Nazareth. Christ is a title, "the Anointed One." Hindus like Yogananda taught Christ Consciousness without Scripture. Many false Yoganandas are around today. Watch, pray, READ the Bible yourself. Please (not easy). Or fall for ear-tickling fancies sooner or later. Without the Bible, I am no Jesus disciple.

II
He is always  near
And to some, most dear
Angels declare:
Do not fear
He will be here
But first clear
The ego, your air
Jesus is no  fortune clair*

NOTE: * poetic license for clairvoyant.

Valsa George January 23, 2022 at 8:13 AM I missed reading this ! Agree with you brother ! The Bible is the Word of God and word has such power. Without the Bible, there cannot be a Christian.... ! Sure, to experience God, one has to pulverize the ego. The second part, I particularly liked.
