Was Jesus Black? |

here is my take on Jesus' color. i am a christian and study the bible regularly. I don't know it all but I am certain about what things important and what doctrines are the pillars of Christianity. Jesus' color is not even discussed.
the only thing that was important about His race or nationality was that God made a specific promise that the saviour would come from the line of David. The Jews are the chosen people. This does not make them any better than anyother people. No where does it say so. But God has made certain promises about Israel and these prophesies have been fullfilled down through tyme even tiil now without fail.
anyone with any real perspective could not assume anything but the fact that Jesus was anything but white. the likely hood of His being white is much less than Him being a chinese.
