What most of you are forgetting is it Jesus didn’t walk this life with divinity he was all God but he was on man. He walked this Earth as a Spirit-filled man. Now that being said I saw one comment that said if he had syphilis boils it would have meant he was sexually active that’s not true. If you read what the historians who have dug back found they said that he didn’t even look human. Consider every sickness every disease that ever was and ever would be being placed on your body what you would look like so if he carried all of them he carried syphilis and gonorrhea for his two which meant he could have very well had those sores on him. Now was he sexually abused I have prayed and sought him on that question because like most of you the thought of it just cause big bills and alarms and red lights to go off in me I didn’t know how to deal with that thought. But once I could get past it and listen to him then I believe that yes he had suffered some form a sexual assault. That doesn’t lessen who he was not for 5 seconds but it certainly makes his Humanity and love for us is so much more relatable. If he isn’t concerned with that question why is everybody else. Why do we accuse each other. If believing that he was sexually assaulted gives me peace and helps me heal from mine then why should you care. Our relationship with Jesus is just that it’s with Jesus not with other people. So just love Jesus and Let Jesus love people that’s really all this is about

One thing is certain, nothing occurred during his being tortured, to defile his holy body. He was and remained spotless within and physically which made him morally and physically fit to be “the Lamb that took away the sin of the world.” john 1:29,35; Exodus 12:5 Your lamb shall be without blemish.

HE experienced no sexual molestation, but sexual nakedness yes. He remained our blessed, holy saviour and Lord. Accept him as the appointed sacrifice , the risen and now crowned Christ. Hebrews 2:9

In reply to Pompom's seal pups. Another drawling sop who thinks religion is a history lesson. A dead history lesson. A literal, dead, history lesson.

Spirit and matter are not separate. Contemplate that, the ramifications, how that affects the sinner/savior doctrine….. It explodes the commitment to the ideology! No one can wake to this knowledge until they are ready. Belief is what the poor do. There is no need to be poor!! Snap out of it!! It kinda takes away the illusion of power, which is ultimately what man does not want, giving up the spectrum of power. Really, we only ever have responsibility, not power.

That’s all christians are – stuck in an illusion of power: none of it (sinner), or all of it (gaseous vertebrate found elsewhere). All is interdependent. We are “god”, all of everything! – there is no separation. The inner reaches of outer space. Put down the bible, grab a mirror – and THERE!! – YOU FOUND ” GOD”!!!

In reply to Raymond Francis Rice.

That’s not possible – for there to have been syphilic lesions – even if only as an artistic representation would have to have meant that Jesus was sexually active, at the very least, somewhere close to 3 weeks prior to his crucifixion. Syphilis does not cause sores all over your body – mostly there’s only one sore at the point where the virus entered tue body. A rash appears about a week to two after the chancre sore but is hardly likely to look like the sores in the painting.

In reply to Patricia Apy. I had a dream today. They raped him. They pinned him down with stakes and raped him. And draped like a women. Because the women loved him. They made a head dress to crown him. God my heart aches.

I clicked on this article because curiosity killed the cat. Jesus did not have to experience EVERY SINGLE PAINFUL EVENT in order to know what that pain felt like. Did he have to commit each and every sin in order to become that sin?? No. (There are some painful experiences that he could not have experienced personally.)He carried each and every burden, including the ones of victims, to the Cross. And he alone was able to do that. We could not, because we were not spotless, but also because as humans we could not have endured the burdens of the whole world. When we argue and debate whether or not Christ was raped, we miss the forest for the trees folks. If you are a victim of abuse, you can take your burdens and lay them at the feet of Jesus and be truly healed! And we, as sinners, can also be redeemed thru Jesus. That should be the REAL take away from anything that Jesus suffered. Put your focus back on him regardless of what you are or where you have been and you will get to be with him for eternity. I have suffered abuse in various forms, from various people. If I hang on to my pain then I am not free. And my abusers get to keep a chain around my neck. But, because I can go to Christ with my pain and leave it to him, and I can also forgive those who sought to do evil against me, I am truly free. Because of JESUS. Find a way to heal and forgive and I can promise you that you will find peace like you have never known! May God be with every person who reads this.

I don’t believe that such a thing happened at all because of the following reasons.
1. Romans usually were told to respect some religions if those religions were considered ‘legal’ . Judaism was considered :legal’ by Augustus Caesar so the legions and treyarchs etc had to follow some rules of such religions to prevent civil unrest or protests leading to instability.
2.Roman soldiers were not much similar to their Greek counterparts and didn’t have sex with each and every living creature as much as Greeks did and so to some extent were not as much as same sex doing people.
3.The entirety of Jesus being the lamb of God was God’s way of displaying His love for us and to what extent He was willing to sacrifice for us. The crucifixion of Christ can be seen as the greatest display of sacrifice from God for us this in this way we can see that it is an act which uplifts the reputation of God as a loving and caring God. I do believe that Christ was stripped of His clothes but that was mainly for public humiliation. God would never ever want anything to lower His own reputation and as anyone would , God would also want all His plans to go perfectly. And God’s main goal was to have a great impact on the world in order to save it from sin . If Jesus was raped then this would have led to Him having not as great as an impact for Christianity as society won’t be able to accept some parts of it plus God Himself wouldn’t want this to happen as it would tarnish His reputation . And therefore God would not have allowed any such thing as it would lead to His plan not having as great as an impact as it has had . And the Romans use to make rumours of Christ to reduce the faith of Christians and if it was so then they would have used this reason as well but evidently it hasn’t . Therefore in conclusion the God of the Bible from the destruction of Sodom to the building of Israel would always let His plan go accordingly and perfectly for maximum impact on people thus I now hope that you are convinced that such a thing didn’t happen with Christ . Jesus has had His share of His pain already enough but also understands the pain you and I have as well because after all His creation . Just as a computer engineer knows what’s going on with his software.( Example)
