I am curious to ask, how do we know jesus, is Jesus, when the letter J was not part of the alphabet, until the 17th century,

so prior to the crucifixion , was Jesus followed by the early Christians, or were they followers, of  a Christ, or anointed one, by no name, I am very confused about this,

how this lines up, for even in the king james 1611 bible it is I and not J,

English form of Ιησους (Iesous), which was the Greek form of the Aramaic name יֵשׁוּעַ (Yeshu'a). Yeshu'a is itself a contracted form of Yehoshu'a (see JOSHUA). Yeshua ben Yoseph, better known as Jesus Christ, was the central figure of the New Testament and the source of the Christian religion. The four gospels state that he was the son of God and the Virgin Mary who fulfilled the Old Testament prophecies of the Messiah. He preached for three years before being crucified in Jerusalem. http://www.behindthename.com/name/jesus

In the present tense? no! Absolutely not if he did then he would not be throwing the majority in the lake of fire. He Loved us past tense. We all know John 3:16 but what about John 3:36. He who not believeth not on the son of God hath not seen life but the WRATH of God abideth on him!

All who have come to Jesus have received that which was not expected... A Life not of this world nor of it's apparent structure! We have depths that are not of here nor are reliant upon the things of here - simply we are transformed into children of God and are no longer of what we were when first born in this place... When talking to people who have not come to Jesus with repentance of dead works ~we realize our words reach them without their ability of comprehending- for you must be born again spiritually to understand spiritual things. So it is a draw within the heart of something not known but is definitely the desire for other than what we have began in ...  It is here The Lord has designed a sterile membrane called faith and faith is

Hebrews 11:1 (KJV)

[11:1] Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

[2] For by it the elders obtained a good report.

[3] Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.

You see The Lord explains Himself through His Word and begins to develope this membrane called faith which is the necessary element

Hebrews 11:6 (KJV)

[6] But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.

Most will turn back here because it requires a reliance out side of normal lanes in life we have learned to ascertain reality (through our senses). The god of this world lucifer has set up our world as an idol to love, worship and cling to even though it is dying and all people do it without thought! Here is where God explains this to us

2 Corinthians 4:4 (KJV)

[4] In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.

So the counsel you have received here by my sister in Christ is the narrow path to God through His Word- In entering God's Word to seek for Him you have this promise

Romans 10:17 (KJV)

[17] So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

Love, Steven

It doesn't feel like he loves me.  I'm not even sure if he is real.  If Jesus is real and really does love me then why was a so called "Christian" priest so abusive toward me?

Please do not blame Jesus Christ for the sexual abuse that a "so-called Christian priest" did to you when you were 4 years old. Why ? Simply put, this "priest" does not represent true Christianity. In fact, there are some 41,000 different denominations and sects that comprise Christendom that are called "weeds" by Jesus in an illustration he gave at Matthew 13:24-30, 36-43

At Matthew 7, Jesus said: "Be on watch for the false prophets who come to you in sheep's covering, but inside are ravenous wolves".(Matt 7:15) How then would a person be able to distinguish those who are genuine Christians from those who are just pretenders ("ravenous wolves in sheep's covering", saying they are Christian but not the genuine deal)?

Jesus said that "by their fruits (or conduct) you will recognize them. Never do people gather grapes from thorns or figs from thistles, do they ? Likewise, every good tree (genuine Christianity) produces fine fruit (fine conduct), but every rotten tree (religious organizations that only pretends to be Christian) produces worthless fruit (conduct that is rotten)".(Matt 7:16, 17)

At Matthew 13, Jesus outlines that true Christianity ("wheat") that he planted would be oversown with "weeds", counterfeit Christians, saying: "The Kingdom of the heavens may be likened to a man who sowed fine seed (true Christianity) in his field (or "the world" of mankind, verse 38). While men were sleeping (or after the death of the apostles who were the ones who restrained the coming of "weeds" that resulted in apostasy or a falling away from Bible truth, 2 Thess 2:3, 6, 7), his enemy (Satan the Devil, verse 39) came and oversowed weeds (imitation Christians) in among the wheat (genuine Christians) and left".(Matt 13:24, 25)

Thus, following the death of the last apostle, John, in about 100 C.E., "weeds" or imitation Christians began to proliferate to the point that genuine Christians or "wheat" was as good as swallowed up. In our time frame, "weeds" are abounding to the tune of almost 2 billion people that comprises Christendom.

Genuine Christianity stands by the high moral principles that our Maker, Jehovah God, has established for his people. At Titus 2, the apostle Paul wrote that "Jesus Christ (as God's Son), who gave himself for us to set us free from every sort of lawlessness and to cleanse for himself a people who are his own special possession, zealous for fine works".(Titus 2:13, 14)

Your abuser is not of Jesus "special possession, zealous for fine works", but rather was a "wolf in sheep's covering". Jesus said: "I am giving you a new commandment, that you love one another......By this all will know that you are my disciples - if you have love among yourselves".(John 13:34, 35)

Jesus stressed that agape love (not erotic or sexual love) or self sacrificing love, love that seeks others advantages over their own, would be an identifying mark of true Christianity.(see 1 Cor 10:24 that says: "Let each one keep seeking, not his own advantage, but that of the other person")
