If Jesus were born today

Jesus was born over two millenniums ago, His time as a mortal was short but earth-shaking. But what if Jesus had been born now? How would He treat the world and how would the world treat Him? If Jesus was born today, in 2008, there wouldn't be much to say about His actions, he would simply be a newborn. So let us fast forward to 2030, when Jesus would be roughly 22 years old.

Every newspaper, magazine, tabloid, and television camera have been following this so called "Jesus Christ" for His entire life. Who is this man? Is He a prophet, a cult leader, or the savior of mankind? These questions have been studied since his birth, February 15, 2008. Wars have already been fought, families divided, churches created, and churches destroyed over this young man.

Half of the world's population claiming to be Christians deny this man is really the son of God. His existence is merely a footnote amongst many Christians throughout the world. There are, however, millions of people who believe He is the Almighty. There are roughly a dozen men that follow Him throughout the world preaching the word of God. These men are spit on in some places and warmly welcomed in others. One of them was executed by a mob of protesters several months ago for simply following this Jesus character. Who exactly is this Jesus guy and what is He up to in 2030?

In 2015, when Jesus was just a boy, He performed His first supposed "miracle". The gymnasium at His elementary school caught fire and trapped several young students inside. Against His teachers will Jesus walked straight into the blazing inferno and rescued all of the kids. This event made headlines in every major publication in the world. Some called it a miracle, some called it black magic, and some refuse to acknowledge the event. Since that time, Jesus has performed other great wonders throughout the world. But the people who have met Jesus, don't see him as a magician, but as a man.

Jesus currently works as a handy-man for hire in Los Angeles. He is a great worker with a variety of skills. He builds porches, lays flooring, paints, and basically can do anything you need around the house. On the weekends, Jesus travels. Jesus doesn't preach in front of large crowds often. For this reason alone, many churches deny His credibility. He doesn't demand attention from the media and from people, that is inconsequential. He doesn't announce where He is going, He just goes. People often call Him a hippie and a freak, and He is banned in many places.
