Reps: 203 (power: 0) | | | It doesn't matter to my being saved if Jesus had a beard or not. The Bible is a book to our salvation and so they didn't put all the little details in it because it doesn't matter. Someday in heaven I'll find out, but I don't believe it right to do the guessing now. |

Reps: 310 (power: 0) | | | without Him telling us, there's no way to tell, but i think he had a full beard.
He grew up poor right? He was a humble man right?
I think his appearence paled in comparison to his mission, it was probably the least of his concerns. Then again maybe it was. |

Reps: 39,178 (power: 70) | | | Does it matter??? come on! What would the purpose of this thinking be? painting a picture in your mind? We don't know what Jesus looks like, so why go round with an imagined image of Him?? sheesh
__________________ The question: "What would you do if you were totally sold out for Jesus?" Jesus' answer:
“He who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me; and he who loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me. ... He who has found his life will lose it, and he who has lost his life for My sake will find it."
A spring of hot water can heal, a spring of cold water can refresh, but a pool of lukewarm water causes sickness.
Are you sold out for Jesus, or just a Christian? |
