Will Jesus return on a white horse?

[RichardP]

As I understand it the Book of Revelations has Jesus returning on a white horse. Maybe what that really means is that he will return in a white Ferrari -- with a lot of horse power!

I guess that there is no reason why the second coming of Jesus would be somebody other than the original Jesus. I'm sure that he looks exactly the same as he did since Biblical times -- since he is God! He doesn't have to have aged. Remember he rose from the dead and went off to heaven as a living man. I don't know why people think that he will come as another person. That just doesn't make sense! Maybe their faith is weak and they think that the original Jesus died and he will have to be born again?

But the real question is why is Jesus waiting to come again?

I wish he would come and do something about the Middle Eastern conflict! That sure has been a big waste of money and a lot of people have died because of it. But I guess that God is beyond our comprehension and we just have to trust the Bible and the Republicans. It is too bad that we have to kill men, women, and little children because their religious beliefs are different than our own. But religion is the source of goodness and goodness must be maintained by committing horrific atrocities!

Quiet, you!

Don't you know it is Sunday and "jesus" has football games to watch over?

The mormons saw the full fillment of Joseph Smith's version of this prophesy in Mitt Romney's bid for the white house... In the end it is a prophesy and is subject to interpertation.

who or what are you speaking of?

But the real question is why is Jesus waiting to come again?

to save all of the comming generations looking to be saved.

I wish he would come and do something about the Middle Eastern conflict!

like what?
What can be done that will not destroy the 'free will' of one people or another?
In the past His fix was to destroy entire races of people who opposed Him and his people in that region. is this what you want?
Is this your prayer?

So you would have God kill on our behalf for free? or just change the will of all who oppose a benficial western sense of peace?

to save all of the comming generations looking to be saved.

He seems to have done a fairly shitty job of it the first time. Why do think he'll be better in Act II?

"WIll jesus return on a white horse?"

No.

Call it a hunch.

I want Jesus to fly out of the sun on a dragon made of diamonds. Man! I so should have been hired to write the bible.

Clearly this god had no qualms about destroying people's free will in the stories, then. At what point did it evolve this concern?

Hmm....you know it is an interesting question. I can't recall any spot in the Babble where jesus rides a horse. A donkey maybe but a horse?

Takes some practice to learn to ride a horse. How would it look for the king of kings to fall off and break his fucking neck?

Hilarious.

Well, there was that bit about JC riding on a donkey and an ass at the same time. Maybe he had the one stacked on top of the other and rode on top. Presumably while juggling flaming torches and spinning hoops on his feet.
