Yes. You read that right. The image of 'Jesus' is none other than Cesare Borgia. To have a glimpse of how disgusting the Borgia's were maybe you should watch the seasonal movie 'The Borgias' . Anyway let's take a look at Cesare's life. . .

Cesare Borgia
Cesare Borgia was the Son of Pope Alexander VI. In fact, he was the popes most loved and illegitimate son. (at one time papacy members were allowed to marry.) Pope Alexander VI was known for having multiple mistresses and in 1476 bore a son named Cesare Borgia. Cesare was Alexanders favored son and by the age of 15 had already become the Bishop of Pamplona. By his 18th birthday he was a Cardinal. Borgia also had an older brother named Giovanni who was Captain General of the Papacy Military forces.

Cesare envied his brothers position and many scholars believe he envied it so much that he had his own brother assassinated in order to obtain the office. Other records show the brothers slept with the same mistress, the wife of their younger brother Goffredo. Many believe the inflamed love triangle between the brothers and their so-called mistresses is what led to young Giovanni’s demise. Following Giovanni’s assassination, Cesare Borgia resigned his position as Cardinal and became Captain General of the Papacy Military. During this time, the Catholic Church was waging war on Islam and Cesare was about to play a vital role in the history of the Church.

At the time, the Muslims had successfully made their way to Germany and taken control of Turkey. This threatened the Churches stronghold over the empire. During the same period, the image of Jesus was similar to that of a Muslim and the church was having a hard time selling its ideologies in the region. Some say they devised a plan to correct this issue and used Cesare Borgia as its tool. Consequently, some historians say the pope came up with a plan to have every painting of the original messiah destroyed. Next, Alexander VI commissioned Leonardo Di Vinci to reinvent Jesus in the image of his own beloved son, Cesare Borgia. This completely disassociated the whites of the empire from the Muslims they had to fight, making it easier to kill their enemies in good conscious. (OMG Information)

Between 1502 and 1503, he (Borgia) employed Leonardo da Vinci as a military architect and engineer, in which him and Leonardo da Vinci became intimate instantaneously, they were lovers. To express his love towards Cesare, Leonardo painted many pictures of him. Cesare’s Father Rodrigo Borgia, who later became Pope Alexander VI, under the authority of the Catholic Church Elite, had his son picture put up as Jesus Christ in the Western World. Cesare had sex with his own sister Lucrezia, and he killed his brother Giovanni in 1497, and this is the man whom the Catholic Church gave their consent to allowing his picture to be put up and portrayed as Jesus Christ to deceive the whole world to think Christ was European. See what most people don’t know is, there was a competition during the time called the Renaissance period, between Leonardo da Vinci and the well known Michelangelo. The competition was to see who could impress the king by a making a new image of the King’s son that would deceive the world, in which Leonardo da Vinci won the competition.

Are you squirming yet?
Pro-Christian blogs that agree with this. . . Also, I’ve seen depictions of Jesus as Hercules, with brown hair, clean-shaven and muscular, and Jesus as Apollo, with blonde hair, clean-shaven, young, and effeminate.
***********
So then what does Jesus really look like??
Herodotus, an ancient historian, described exactly what the ancient Egyptians and Hebrews looked like, which he witnessed with his own eyes. Herodotus, who visited Egypt about 457 BC, says in Book II: [The Nubians, the Egyptians, and the Ethiopians have broad noses, thick lips, woolly hair, and they are burnt of skin.]

Directly and indirectly, the following verses reveal the visual appearance of the Biblical Israelites: Lamentations 4:8 [Their visage is blacker than a coal.], Lamentations 5:10 [our skin was black like an oven.]

The skin color of Christ is described as being dark: as if it was burned in a furnace. Revelation 1:14,15 [His head and his hairs were white like wool, white as snow (Christ suffered a lot, and went gray early in life), and his eyes were as a flame of fire (reddish), and his feet like unto fine brass as if they burned in a furnace!] Brass is already brown, like a doorknob; anything burned has to get very dark from oxidation. And Christ’s feet were the same color as the rest of his body: dark brass! (The Israelite Network)

So when I walk by and I see African slaves to a fallacious European religion, putting an image of a European aristocrat all over their churches, in their homes, etc, I can't help but chuckle.

Op, this is a very Interesting topic you've touched on. Let me go and do a little research before i make any further comment.

cckris:
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

Jesus of Nazareth rules the world.

Are you confused?

cckris:


How?

What is the topic of this thread and what are you saying?? If you don't have anything relevant to add then stay off

cckris:
Op, are you suggesting that Lamentation & Revelation are authentic Scriptures?

If you can read, and have comprehension skills, then you'll understand that those passages are references to what your physics defying bogeyman would look like, if he existed at all.

cckris:
And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.


Without any Central administration,

Without an army,

Without a dime of bank deposit,

Jesus practically owns everything on earth, including the Oil in Saudi Arabia.


Christ Jesus is Lord.

That is in your little world.

cckris:



ifenes, long time! I full ground.

It's nice to see you again. I can see you haven't outgrown that middle eastern religion.

cckris:


Na so so wonder Jesus de do,
Na so so wonder Jesus de do. Jesus is doing many miracles around me here in Nigeria.

Unfortunately there was no human called Jesus. If the above picture is the reason why you are glued to your false belief you need to take jesus to the ebola camp or the clinic to heal proper sick people.

I could post a long list of of sick people helped to recover by medical practitioners. One must advance and not regress. Every sickness is an illusion anyway,none of them are real. Just state of mind.

so the headache you feel is an illussion and perhaps so is the panadol you also drink

the malaria is also an illusion and so are the drugs for it.

if sickness is an illusion then bring an HiV infected person and take their blood and inject yourself with it. prove your illusion theory right. Afterall the blood too would be an illusion.

Please don't derail the thread. This thread serves to show that Christianity was just accepted without scrutiny. I've seen these depictions of 'white Jesus' everywhere in churches, some denominations even bow down to it. . . despite Exodus being strongly against that. This thread shows them what they've been worshipping, and if any of you can debunk this, by all means, please do so

Do you know the meaning of illusion?

Do you know the meaning of illusion?

Do you know the meaning of a Mirage? Or a hallucination or an apparition?

That is what happen when you say jesus died for you. Type illusion on google to learn more for yourself. The earlier you freed your mind the better

cckris:

I also show you that Jesus is VERY REAL.

We accept Jesus based on the ACCURACY & CONSISTENCY of His WORD from Genesis to Revelation. Not some European portraiture, but the authentic Messiah, who rules the world by AGAPE LOVE.

The man who you claim had agape love, created hell of torment incase people don't reciprocate. SMH

What has my talk got to do with Jesus. Am I the one who said sickness is an illusion? So u don't know that an illusion is also a mirage and a hallucination? You need a brain evaluation.

Now now, no need to trade insults here. . . I noticed you jumped on the thread without addressing the topic

Do u have a child? Do u love that Child? If in the land u live there are offenses punishable by death under law and you have repeatedly warned your kind against carrying out those offenses and your child still deliberately goes ahead to do them....would your love prevent him from serving the punishment? Yes or no

Enough with your stories just explain why you have images of Cesare Borgia in your churches.

I am not bound by any law to address the OP. I responded to what I felt I needed to clear up. if I would tender a direct response to a direct comment and the other person would immediately switch to targeting Jesus from my statement when my comment had nothing to do with that then surely he needs a brain evaluation

Stop twisting the truth.
There are non-religious men who are by far morally better than most hypocrite in the Christian sect, but according to your believe, they will tormented eternally just because they don't believe in Yahweh.
