I'm enjoying this thread.
I've read some aggressive things about Jesus...
Walked on the raging sea
Not afraid of a gory death
Friend of sinners
Performed spectacular miracles
Took a real whip to the hypocrites
Called-out the reigning authorities
Drew huge crowds
Counter-culture
On the other hand he was born in a manger and rode into Jerusalem on a donkey.
So while he may have been perfectly happy with a VW for his humble transportation, I think he's looking to the GSXR-1000 and a day at the track for something a little more true to his basic personality. ...
7 The earth trembled and quaked,
and the foundations of the mountains shook;
they trembled because he was angry.
8 Smoke rose from his nostrils;
consuming fire came from his mouth,
burning coals blazed out of it.
9 He parted the heavens and came down;
dark clouds were under his feet.
10 He mounted the cherubim and flew;
he soared on the wings of the wind.
11 He made darkness his covering, his canopy around him-
the dark rain clouds of the sky.
12 Out of the brightness of his presence clouds advanced,
with hailstones and bolts of lightning.
and check this out...
11I saw heaven standing open and there before me was a white horse, whose rider is called Faithful and True. With justice he judges and makes war. 12His eyes are like blazing fire, and on his head are many crowns. He has a name written on him that no one knows but he himself. 13He is dressed in a robe dipped in blood, and his name is the Word of God. 14The armies of heaven were following him, riding on white horses and dressed in fine linen, white and clean. 15Out of his mouth comes a sharp sword with which to strike down the nations. "He will rule them with an iron scepter."[1] He treads the winepress of the fury of the wrath of God Almighty. 16On his robe and on his thigh he has this name written
scKING OF KINGS AND LORD OF LORDS.
Peace!
