The secret Christians aren’t sharing with you

Concerning Christ, I'm certain that many followers secretly believe that “Jesus” resides on Earth and that, upon His death, all existence will end and begin again with his "rebirth." Notice Jesus in quotes. The Christian conviction that He is alive in "heaven" now, poised to resurrect the dead and usher in a new Heaven and Earth speaks volumes, in my estimation. In the present day, a man exhibiting a messianic tendency is deemed mentally unsound; yet, for reasons "unknown," Christians do not apply this judgment to Jesus. I surmise that Christianity’s magnitude renders it impervious to scrutiny, and individuals shy away from the prospect of being perceived as irrational for asserting that “Jesus” walks the Earth. Thus, there lies a collective refuge in attributing such divinity to the figure described in the sacred text provided by God.

    I'm sorry, but I don't understand what you're trying to say. You think there are two individuals who are both Christ? Or that Jesus Christ is somehow re-running his earthly life right now? I'm confused.

    Haha. No. Christians secretly think that “Jesus” is on earth right now. Notice Jesus in quotes. They don’t know who this man is. The only thing they do know is that when he dies all existence ends and begins again, repeating the same cycle. As far as the Jesus in the Bible goes, no they don’t subscribe to that.

    I suspect you’re not the one who’s confused.

    When you say 'many', what percentage of Christians do you think hold this belief?

    I’d say around 50-60%. Not many young ones do. It takes time to understand the mystery of life.

    Christianity was meant to introduce people to the truth, but sadly many leave before they get to understand the real truth.
