As far as I know, the only weapons our Lord Jesus used were his message and also a whip when he drove the moneychangers out of the temple.
I think this painting is dopey.

Tripe--He probably looked more like Gabe Kaplan than as He is often depicted in paintings. I believe Mr. Kaplan is Jewish, as was our Lord.

Okay, deep strange thought here.
If God made us in His image, wouldn't that mean Jesus would resemble all of us in some matter?
I mean, after all, He is the Son of God, right?
Does Jesus appear differently to each of us?
I have sometimes seen what I believe represents Jesus in my dreams. Usually in the form of someone I've lost -- one of my oldest and dearest friends, or my grandfather, or a news anchor I looked up to who died when I was a teenager. Really, though, how far off could that be?
After all, if God is omnipresent and omnicient and allpowerful, who's to say Jesus isn't a chameleon?
Okay, I'll back away from the caffeine now.
