Dear Jack:

>>>>Re. Jesus' "looks." Don't get too "uptight" over how he looks. Believe me, he will look sensational---however, the whole point I was making was, I believe God's Triune counsel arranged a "toned-down" look, so he wouldn't appeal to the masculinity and sensual side of humankind---drawn to Christ by the wooing of the Holy Spirit---all for the right reasons!<<<<

That is really a good point to make.. that we are not drawn to Christ for the wrong reasons, believing that he would then understand even our most basic desire to be attractive, even for those who feel they are unattractive.

When John in Revelations saw Christ in heaven and said that he fell on his face as if dead; I really feel that he was saying among other things that this is Christ ? the unattractive, homely person that I knew, look at him now blow me over with a feather; maybe we will be able to say the same thing about some of our friends someday..In Christ......gregor
