Kloster Maria Friedenshort: Jesus und Homosexualität / LGBTQ+ - K-TV Predigt am 03.10.2023 (P. Isaak)

Oct 3, 2023

Dieses Video erschien auf meiner Startseite, also hörte ich mir an, was dieser Priester zum Thema Jesus und Homosexualität zu sagen hatte und welche christliche Sichtweise er dazu vermittelte. Ich teile es mit euch im Geiste der Offenheit und aus echtem Interesse daran, seine Ausführungen zu diesem Thema kennenzulernen. Ich fand seine Predigt interessant. Ich hoffe, ihr seht das genauso. — © Mark Alexander

Israeli Soldier Destroys Jesus Statue in Lebanon | BBC News

Apr 20, 2026 | There has been widespread condemnation after an image of an Israeli soldier apparently hitting a statue of Jesus with a sledgehammer in southern Lebanon went viral.

Israel's prime minister said he was "stunned and saddened”. Its foreign minister said: "We apologise for this incident and to every Christian whose feelings were hurt."

Locals say the statue was on a crucifix outside a family home on the edge of Debel, one of the few villages where residents have remained during Israel's war with Hezbollah.

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said it viewed the incident "with great severity and emphasises that the soldier's conduct is wholly inconsistent with the values expected of its troops".

Gab es Jesus wirklich? | Terra X

Mar 25, 2021 | Keiner weiß, wie Jesus Christus aussah, wie er lebte und wer er wirklich war. Erst Jahre später wurde die Geschichte des jüdischen Wanderlehrers und Gelehrten aufgeschrieben. Und dennoch ist er im kulturellen Gedächtnis geblieben und wurde zur Hauptfigur einer Weltreligion. Aber hat es ihn wirklich gegeben?

Jesus selbst hat keine Schrift verfasst. Die Berichte über ihn stammen immer aus zweiter oder dritter Hand. Aber es gibt sie, die historischen Dokumente, die über ihn berichten. Sie basieren auf mündlichen Überlieferungen, wie sie damals üblich waren.

Der römisch- jüdische Geschichtsschreiber Flavius Josephus berichtet über Jesus, genauso auch der römische Politiker Tacitus und weitere jüdische Quellen aus dem 3. Jahrhundert. Und natürlich schildern neben den antiken Quellen auch die Evangelien im neuen Testament der Bibel das Leben von Jesu.

Aber lässt sich die Geschichte aus dem Lukasevangelium in der Bibel historisch belegen? Hat Jesus wirklich gelebt?

War Judas wirklich schuld am Tod Jesu? | Terra X

Apr 5, 2026 | Als Judas Iskariot Jesus küsst, ist das wohl der größte Verrat der Geschichte. Seitdem gilt Judas als einer der meistgehassten Männer der Geschichte. Laut Bibel ist er für die Auslieferung Jesu an den Hohepriester und seine Kreuzigung verantwortlich. Aber war Judas wirklich verantwortlich für Jesu Tod? Die Geschichte um Judas ist eine blutige Geschichte. Nachdem er Jesus an den Hohepriester verraten hat, gerät er - so die Bibel - in Gewissenskonflikte, kann mit seiner Tat nicht leben und richtet sich am Vorabend der Kreuzigung selbst.

Von nun an ist sein Name jahrhundertelang gleichbedeutend mit Verrat und Betrug. Er wird auch für die aufkommende christliche Judenfeindschaft haftbar gemacht. Später aber taucht eine Schrift auf, die ein positives Licht auf ihn wirft. Wer war Judas Iskariot, ein Verräter oder ein Heilsbringer. Was wissen wir von ihm? Und was hat er tatsächlich mit Jesus zu tun?

Was Jesus Gay? Probably

THE GUARDIAN: I preached on Good Friday that Jesus's intimacy with John suggested he was gay as I felt deeply it had to be addressed

Preaching on Good Friday on the last words of Jesus as he was being executed makes great spiritual demands on the preacher. The Jesuits began this tradition. Many Anglican churches adopted it. Faced with this privilege in New Zealand's capital city, Wellington, my second home, I was painfully aware of the context, a church deeply divided worldwide over issues of gender and sexuality. Suffering was my theme. I felt I could not escape the suffering of gay and lesbian people at the hands of the church, over many centuries.

Was that divisive issue a subject for Good Friday? For the first time in my ministry I felt it had to be. Those last words of Jesus would not let me escape. "When Jesus saw his mother and the disciple whom he loved standing near, he said to his mother, 'Woman behold your son!' Then he said to the disciple. 'Behold your mother!' And from that hour the disciple took her to his own home."

That disciple was John whom Jesus, the gospels affirm, loved in a special way. All the other disciples had fled in fear. Three women but only one man had the courage to go with Jesus to his execution. That man clearly had a unique place in the affection of Jesus. In all classic depictions of the Last Supper, a favourite subject of Christian art, John is next to Jesus, very often his head resting on Jesus's breast. Dying, Jesus asks John to look after his mother and asks his mother to accept John as her son. John takes Mary home. John becomes unmistakably part of Jesus's family. » | Paul Oestreicher | Friday, April 20, 2012

Jesus - The Mystery of His Descendants | DW Documentary

Dec 21, 2024 | In 2012, respected historian Karen King turned the history of Christianity on its head. She presented a tiny piece of 1,300-year-old papyrus with an inscription: "Jesus said to them: my wife...I dwell with her.”

Despite its authenticity, the parchment was not recognized by religious authorities. However, two years later, in 2014, a new text was discovered in the British Library in London. It was a bombshell. This text tells of a marital relationship between Jesus and his 'wife,' Mary Magdalene. Could these revelations indicate that the couple had children?

This documentary uses animation to bring clues to life, while taking a new scientific look at the question of whether or not Jesus might have had children. The film examines apocryphal relics -- from recently discovered tombs to ancient parchments. It analyzes inscriptions and the results of scientific tests. The aim is to shed light on one of the oldest mysteries in the world.

Who Raised the 'Son of God' | Jesus's Family Tree | BBC Select

Jul 25, 2023 | Jesus was the single child of a nuclear family with his parents, Mary and Joseph. At least, that’s the traditional image. But Jesus lived 2000 years ago in a society where an extended family was the norm. This fascinating two-part documentary reveals evidence from both the gospels and archaeology showing that Jesus not only had a vast family network, but this network inspired and supported him.

Evidence of Jesus' Biological Father (by Dr. James Tabor)

Jan 27, 2022 | In this video we discuss Pantera, the Roman Soldier who may be the real biological father of Jesus of Nazareth. Professor James Tabor breaks down all the sources we have that suggest this.

This is a highly controversial subject. It should therefore be well noted that I neither endorse nor dismiss this material. I am not a theologian, a historian or a specialist in the historicity of the Bible narrative. I am, however, a truth seeker; so, such discussions, however polemical, are of great interest to me. I trust they are of great interest to you too. – Mark Alexander

Jesus Son of Pantera: Ancient Slander or Historical Probability?

Jun 4, 2023 | Contrary to what is often asserted by scholars as well as general readers, the early traditions that Jesus had a biological father named "Pantera" has nothing to do with an assertion that Mary was raped by a Roman soldier. Further, the name Pantera was never said to be a pun on Parthenos--the Greek word for "virgin"--until it was suggested by a German scholar in the 19th century! No ancient writers who comment on the name "Yeshua bar Pantera" associates it with such a pun--they know the name as a real name from the family of Joseph and Mary. Furthermore, 1st century rabbis living in Sepphoris, just north of Nazareth, use the name in a descriptive way--not as slander at all--referring to Jesus of Nazareth. It was a REAL name, not a pun used in slander. In this interview I offer an overview of the Pantera traditions--what we know and don't know, including what I have discovered about the tombstone of a 1st century Roman soldier from Sidon found Bingerbrücke, Germany, on the Rhine river, in 1859.
