Subject: RE: BS: There are 2000 year old living people!
Okay....this thread started with the following statement:

"To the best of my knowledge, every Christian church that makes any claim to theological conservatism holds to the belief that Jesus of Nazareth will return. It would appear to be impossible to believe in the inerrancy of the Bible without holding to that belief in the second coming."


Fine. ;-) Okay, what's the big deal about Jesus returning? Does is say how? Does it say when? The reason I ask is that there are a really large number of spiritual traditions and groups out there that think we ALL return many, many times through the common process of reincarnation.

We are spirits, born again in another physical life.

No one notices, because the new baby is seen as a brand new and original person by its parents and everyone else around it, so the "return" is not recognized as a return.

So Jesus could already have returned many, many times and no one would even have noticed. For all you know, I could be Jesus! ;-D

And If I was, I probably wouldn't even be aware of it!

And for that matter, you could be Jesus. If so...get on the job, willya! There's a lot of stuff going on here that needs to be set right, moneylenders in the temple again, unforgiveness, war, that sort of thing. These things need fixing!

Don't let us down.
