I recently watched the Netflix show Messiah (review of it click here). While watching it, it got me thinking about things so besides doing a review about it, I decided to do this regular blog.
How do you think the world would react if all of a sudden someone claimed to be the new son of God? I am sure on a daily basis there is someone saying they are God or a son of God but those people sadly have something wrong in their brain. So would we react any different if there was an actual new son of God here on earth? Would what it take for people, for you to believe that what this person is saying is true? Even if you haven't seen the show or don't even believe in a God, what would make you believe?
Just like in the show, I am sure some would believe and follow, some would not believe and the government would want to investigate thinking he might be a terrorist or a dangerous cult leader if certain things happened. I think that's what helps make that show great, it pretty much shows how collectively the world would behave.
Since everyday there is someone out there claiming to be the word of God, God himself or his son, I think a real Messiah would have to really prove himself to be legit. Although, we would probably just think he was an illusionist. It would have to take some real "magic" to make most of us believe he was the real thing. Just automatically believing a guy like that can be dangerous if they are mentally ill and/or just trying to start a cult.
So let's say it has been proven he is the real deal, now what? If you talked to him, what would you ask? How would you feel knowing that there is a God and his son is standing before you especially if you didn't believe in a God beforehand? How would the world change by him being here?
I like to think the world would be able to heal and become better. There might be religious wars on the street and chaos at first. Places like North Korea might be harder to break through since they cut tend to cut themselves off from the world. Maybe he will have answers on how to fix our planet and to end the "religion wars" that we tend to have. He would be able to set the record straight. I know he wouldn't be able to give away all the answers but I like to think he could answer a lot of them.
Since I believe in a God but not religion, it would just confirm my beliefs. I have no idea what I would ask. Maybe things like, what does he think about all the "sins" people say are against God? How does he really feel about LGTBQ, horror movies, exorcisms and other paranormal things. Does things really do happen for a reason? How is my mom doing and can she really hear me when I talk to her? How can the world fix things like hunger and the homeless? I am not sure how I feel if he was to stand before me, probably cry and my anxiety would probably kick in. The only thing I would want from him is to cure the few health issues I have going on that can sometimes interfere with my life.
So those are my thoughts and feelings. If I had the right microphone and didn't have anxiety, I would probably do some Youtube videos and this blog would be one video I would make so I could read other people's thoughts on this subject and more. Maybe someday.
