Very few attempts at trolling the Demonrat/Commie/homo/pedo Party elicits a more visceral response, than showing a religious/historic figure with President Trump.

Most Demonrats denounce any form of religion or spirituality,so a meme of President Trump sitting next to Jesus Christ sent them into a hysterical frenzy.

This meme was discovered by President Trump on X.He then shared it on his own Truth Social site.

I am not comparing Jesus to president Trump but I bet the welcome back would be about the same if not worse

That western European artist's depiction of Jesus, so similar to all the various westernized paintings of Jesus, is not even close to what anthropologists believe Jesus would have looked like at the time he lived. Mid-east men had the look as the "Jesus" in the lower right reconstructed head. Jesus would not have looked at all as if he'd been born of "Celtic" parents.



FWIW.

The Bible describes Jesus as someone who men wouldn't desire, meaning he was homely. He was followed because of who he was, not what he looked like.

I have studied His picture behind the altar and the pastor many times. I’m often thinking to myself that the picture is of a European man painted by another European man who couldn’t possibly have looked like this.
But I’m not gonna get hung up on what He looks like. I’m sure I’ll recognize Him when we finally meet in person.
The fact that he paid for my very soul through the shedding of His own blood tells me that.
I think people sometimes get hung up on little details instead of grasping the truly important things.

What would make anyone think that actual pictures of Jesus even exist?

Wolfman Jack used to hawk locks of Jesus' hair and pieces of his robe on XERF. Guess he kept some Mexican barbershop in business by collecting the sweepings.

Who woulda thunk that The Fire would focus on the accuracy of the portrait's likeness and totally ignore the message.

I've seen this sketch before. I'm very sure it's been mocked by every liberal and many so called conservatives and caused heads to explode in the swamp. There is no doubt in my mind there has been Divine intervention of Trump's behalf on many occasions. That being the case we as patriotic Americans have been benefited too.

I have often studied His portrait behind the pulpit and with the preacher. While I'm not equating Jesus with President Trump, I imagine that the welcome back would be at least as bad.

My guess is God could have his son look however he wants.

Also, at that time, late 1940s and early 1950s, XERF, Del Rio, Texas, they advertised splinters from the cross on which Jesus was crucified, and pieces of cloth from the tablecloth used at "the Last Supper." You could buy your "home in Heaven" right there on XERF for only a few dollars. I have no doubt they made millions of $$$$$$. grin

XERF's transmission setup was across the Rio Grande in Via Cuña, and was so powerful they blasted those radio programs all over the world.

I and my buds used to listen to XERF at night and get some great laughs.

Those were the "good ol' days" of radio. cool

All this is very true AND I speculate that the actual Jesus probably looked closer to the last picture, in reality, than any of the others. However, with the picture used in the meme, everybody assumes it to be a picture of Jesus. If they had used the last picture, everybody would have assumed it to be a meme about the "so simple, even a caveman can do it" commercial/meme.
