Jesus wouldn't quote the Bible. It was written hundreds of years after his death.

Merely providing Bible quotes is probably the better decision though.
Yeah. Basically just acting as a pretty good search engine to find relevant quotes.
yeah but he's quoting from heaven
didn't they teach you anything in science class?
The cloud. Didn't they teach you anything in IT class?
Also wasn't white
He might quote himself, which was then put in the Bible, tho.
Let's be correct here: the Christian Bible was canonized centuries after Jesus's death. That's not the same thing as being written.
I still appreciate the point you're making, though.
The New Testament was written after his death too, some parts of it earlier than others. I think it's also a pretty safe bet that there was a lot of editorializing over the centuries, since AFAIK the earliest surviving copies of anything are from the 2nd or 3rd centuries CE.
There's probably less editorializing than you'd think. At least less that was successful in being hidden. There are verses that we know we're added in later that seem like they fit in perfectly. Example: "for yours is the kingdom, the power, and the glory, now and forever" at the end of the Lord's prayer. That verse feels right at home there, but based on early copies and differences between copies as Christianity spread, we know that wasn't original.
Well, the gospels themselves are an example of editorializing. None of the gospels are written by the disciples themselves, most if not all of them were written after all the apostles would have been dead, and it is widely agreed that two of them (Matthew and Luke) are basically fanfiction spin-offs of Mark and a second, long lost source.
To clarify, I think by the time the stories were canonized, the narrative was likely more or less established. But in the 2-3 centuries before that I expect it to have been quite varied. We have no real way of knowing either way because there are very few surviving scraps of manuscripts from that early on.
'this fan fiction is now mainstream'.
Some parts of the bible are shown to have been written about 400 years later
He would and did quote the old testament. The prophets books were written at least a few hundred years before he lived, and those were the latest of the old testament to be written.
The new testament was written about 100 years after he lived, and canonized a few hundred years later.
The old testament did exist, and Jesus misquoted and misunderstood the fuck out of it.
Matthew 22:41-45
Jesus asks the pharisees how the messiah can be the son of David when David calls the holy spirit "lord," referring to psalm 110 whish starts "the lord said to my lord." It's a ridiculous claim to start with, but it's not even the correct understanding. The narrator is not David, they're recounting what happened to David. The lord (God) said to my lord (king David). At no time does David even speak in psalm 110.
And not in English
So how is this not blasphemy? Not that I care, mind you, but they're supposed to
"They" are supposed to do and be many things, which they usually do or are the opposite of. But covertly.
The people making this are almost always cynical, amoral, business-as-religion tech bros.
Of course its blasphemy that's why they do it. They love making a buck off gullible believers.
Who are these "they" you speak of? Do you mean the small handful of christians that actually adhere to their own religious texts?

The image looks rather a lot like the "Buddy Christ" from Dogma. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Buddy_christ.jpg
I see Christian bale
Damn, you saw this first.
25“Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing? 26Look at the birds of the air: they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they? 27And which of you by being anxious can add a single hour to his span of life?g 28And why are you anxious about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin, 29yet I tell you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. 30But if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is alive and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? 31Therefore do not be anxious, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ 32For the Gentiles seek after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them all. 33But seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you.
34“Therefore do not be anxious about tomorrow, for tomorrow will be anxious for itself. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.
You'd think a JesusGPT would remember the Gospels better than the letters Paul wrote decades after he died having never met him.
This just makes me want to try to get it to hallucinate a Bible verse that doesn't exist.... but it's not worth giving them the traffic to try.
So umm "make no idols before me" really took a 180⁰ turn in this capitalist hellscape. Its almost like Jesus was hippie commie who wanted peace in the middle east and not generations of war and bloodshed against the native inhabitants of Jerusalem and the west bank
I have a neighbor down the street named Jesus I gab with sometimes but he hasn't been out much because the government is trying to human traffick him into torture.
That first sentence had me startled.
EDIT: Looks at second text. Is this secretly Winn Adami?
She did her homework. Easily the best actor on that show, she was so perfectly hateable.
The literal peak of AI psychosis, in your hands
Someone please hack this to only return Torah quotes and only in Aramaic.
Why did they use a picture of Christian Bale?
I see they went with “white Jesus” instead of what he actually looked like.
First the pope throws a rave, now this 🤦
MmMmmMmm! hot blonde, whippings and crucifixions!
Afaik these things are not approved of by any churches or religious organizations.
If you ask them if Jesus would suck a dick to save a soul none of them give the correct answer.
And thus far, neither have you. Neither have you.
Ask him what that hole in his hand do
I need this
