A test I give to my Jesus of Nazareth students at the beginning and end of the semester, which I may have put on this blog before, derives from the North England Institute for Christian Education. This test asks questions of you and then of Jesus and, if done over a big group of people, will prove this: that we make Jesus in our own image rather than let ourselves be shaped by Jesus’ image. That is, everyone wants Jesus so much on his or her side that they make him fit. Jesus is a Republican, a Democrat, and a Marxist. And I could go on.
See what you think of it — know this, there are no “right” answers to the Jesus part (which is the point). The point is that people tend to answer the questions in both groups the same — everyone wants Jesus on their side.
