Hi again
@FatalFantasy, no one believes that Jesus has ever lived in the Bible. We know that He lives, body and blood, in Heaven, though the fact that He is God as well as human means that His Divine presence is always here and everywhere else too, of course.
The Bible is His story, not Him. Much of it is, in fact, autobiographical, which is good, because w/o His input in His book, the Bible, we would know almost nothing about Him except by conjecture.
You didn't answer most of the questions from my last post, so I'll ask the important ones again.
1. How can we know Jesus, who He really is, what He believes, what He wants and needs us to know and do, etc., if we do not use the Book He wrote for us (granted, except for the Decalogue, humans did the writing, but the words are His nevertheless, the ones He breathed out just for us
).
2. You say you love Jesus, but you say that you don't like what He has to say to us. How can you say that you love someone who you seem to neither like nor appreciate?
3. You believe that all of us will end up in Heaven, even those among us who don't want to go there. Why do you think Jesus would do that (force people to spend eternity in Heaven with Him against their will, that is)?
Thanks again!
--David
p.s. - I hope you don't mind, but I have one last question, how can you know the One you call the "revealed" Jesus apart from His Book, the Book that tells us all about Him, the place where He has chosen to reveal Himself to us?
