Have you ever seen Jesus?

Have any of you Christians ever seen Jesus' physical body with His wounds and scars and stuff... not some vague spiritual presence but actually saw Him standing right in front of you?

How can be sure He's real?

As an Agnostic Theist I think you would fit well into Christianity, and I think believing in Jesus is a choice to invest your life into his work and not a matter of convincing yourself that he exists. That kind of belief in my opinion is a supernatural gift only. I think many people including agnostics believe in Jesus without that kind of belief, but that is of course not how everybody sees it these days. For some people it really matters whether you are sure Jesus is real, but I don't think that is what faith is about. We can debate it elsewhere. In the Dir we just share opinions, and there is a broad group of people in the Christianity Dir.

Obviously not. But I've often seen images of Him of course, some of them very moving.

IDK about fitting well into Christianity since I don't agree with some of its tenets and it also doesn't make sense to me. I'm not even sure Jesus is someone I should trust...
