There is no god, and Jesus, IF he existed, was a suicidal loony egomaniac Jewish preacher. He pissed off the religious leaders AND the Romans and he had to die. IF he existed.
You can't be wanting a peek at something that doesn't exist . . . I'm not desperate to catch the Tooth Fairy. Although if it actually showed up, now THAT would be interesting.
God doesn't want anything. God doesn't have a nature. God is a fantasy, just like Spiderman and Santa Claus.
I'm just reasoning as best as I know, with what people post.
I wouldn't expect any historical evidence of Christ on earth - a planet in rebellion.

You have to believe to see the evidence and you have to have faith to believe.
If you have those, you don't need evidence.
It's an excuse for the lack of evidence.
The same way you'll only hear from "god" is if you believe and have faith. And if you don't hear it's because you don't belueve hard enough or have enough faith.
It's just empty claims and excuses.
That's pretty much it.
I appreciate your answer.
The Bible says that "faith is the evidence." And that added knowledge should fit the glove.
The statement of truth comes first, then the evidence has to match.
That's the same as saying that perception is determined by one's philosophy.
But there is more to it, as you would rightly expect.

Yes, the court is in session now.
There is a jury of 24 members - human beings, at any given time, and these people represent life from all era's of earth's history, and their full life experiences. The jury is changed with each case, and sometimes each circumstance of a person's life.
The judgement isn't about condemnation but confirmation of eternal life.
While God already knows each case, people in heaven don't know, and angels don't always know the fate of the ones they guarded. And intelligent beings from other planets are also interested in what Christ has been able to achieve for the human race.
The recordings of this judgement may be perused in detail by all who live forever.
As for the inquisition and other atrocities, you are able to know the details and causes of these institutions etc, and whether they have anything to do with God or not. You may want to check out the series called "Total Onslaught" by Prof W. Veith. on Amazing Discoveries.
