He was literate. There are references in the book of John to the Jews marvelling that Jesus "knoweth letters" and also about how Jesus wrote. There's a mention in Luke as well about Jesus reading. John 7:15 John 8:8 Luke 4:17-20
For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life. (the testimony of Jesus concerning himself) For God- the creator of heaven and earth so loved- impartial benevolence the world- all people, races, languages, nationalities- for all time that He gave- offered up as a sacrifice His only begotten Son- Jesus of Nazareth (the Christ), the Son of God that whosoever- anyone- for all time believeth in Him- convinced of His message should not perish- eternal punishment but have everlasting life- forgiveness of sins and life in heaven Yes, Jesus could read and write.
This guy is obviously just trying to create controversy to cash in - and apparently it's working. Even though he lost the law suit how much publicity did he get out of suing Dan Brown? Dan Brown is also loving the controversy -- it sells books. If you believe the Bible Jesus was either the Son of God or a lunatic who died for nothing. Obviously the people who know him believed he was Son of God or else they wouldn't have gone through what they did to get his meesage out. Peter, John, Timothy, Paul received no personal gain (and alot of hardship) for standing by Jesus' message.
what a dumb post, what does "america-hating" have to do with jesus' father? as usual your just trolling for an argument.
not quite 100% true. yes the society was much more oral than now, but there were people who could read and write, and not just arabic. many times there were letters sent to the leaders of other clans and the prophet pbuh would seal it. the contract between the makkans and the muslims was also written down. so no not everyone was illiterate, and yes muhammad pbuh was uneducated in that way.
pms? no one slandered jesus (pbuh), no one called him a pedophile, infact the muslim posters that you attacked consider jesus to be one of their prophets and respect him with the same level of respect given to muhammad (pbuh). and where you threw in jews and other non believers i have no idea, but seriously, read what is written before posting something stupid like that again.
speaking of liberals hating america and other tired cliches, I was driving out towards humble yesterday and I saw a billbaoard for 1070 AM and it says "we hate liberals. unbelievable.
Jesus is as American as Islam. By discussing Jesus, it does not matter at all what happens in America. texxx, go home because you are not welcome in this thread.
