Most people seem to want Jesus to be 'just like them' in every way shape form and manner...

I'm totally different in this regard...in that I do not want the Savior of the world to reflect me at all...

Not my nature, not my physical, nothing...

I can't save myself, and if Jesus was just like me, I'd be doomed...

I recognize my flaws...both biological and spiritual...and as such, I need a savior, not a reflection of myself...

People who want Jesus to reflect themselves, are basically worshipping themselves...

And this is evident in many ways...

Everybody has a different interpretation of the Bible. Why should these guys be an exception? Let them believe what they believe, it's their right.
