Panic And Confusion In Zambia As 'jesus' Came To Town (PIX) by olapluto(m): 1:11pm On Mar 19, 2015 |
Business came to a halt in Zambia, after a white “Jesus” grabbed people’s attention and left tongues wagging after he was seen walking down the streets of Chipata town in Zambia Dressed in a long white robe and wearing long hair and long beard, the white “Jesus”, who was later on established to be an Italian tourist named Antonio Boretti, drew people’s attention because of his garb. His entire appearance resembled that of the Western image of Jesus that has been engraved in most people’s minds, leading most Christians in Zambia to believe that he was “Jesus” coming back for the second time to judge the world. The local people followed him and and some even worshipped him, showering him with gifts. It must have been very confusing for the poor tourist who seemed like he did not understand what was going on but enjoying the attention nevertheless, when he saw people following him. Some believed it was Judgement Day and went to the extent of asking him to forgive them their sins. This case of mistaken identity paints a sad picture of the impact of Western media and associated ideologies on the African people.

I like how repentant these people were. They immediately started confessing their sins,acknowledging the fact that they knew were sinners. Had it been in Nigeria, the people will quickly know the guy's fake. By the time they rush him for miracles and financial breakthrough and he fails to 'perform',all man will begin to suspect the fella. I like the guy that moved in to snap a selfie with the jesus. He'll be like 'one on one with jesus today' 3 Likes 1 Share |

This guy did this intentionally. Do you think an Italian man most probably being a catholic does not know how they Catholics have portrayed how Jesus looks like? Do you think his never been told that he looks like the portraits of what Jesus is said to look like? And what about the attire? Do IItalians now dress like that? This guy was trying to make mockery of how gullible blacks are. Nonsense! |

Sparkle777: It's interesting that you say "looks like the Jesus we see in media and pix", because: 1) no one can really tell what Jesus looks like. Actually no one. Reason being that all those who saw Him on earth are long dead (obviously) and the last biblical recorded description we have of Him is of having hair as white as wool and shining with like the sun. 2) Renaissance painters and sculptors modelled the images they made of Jesus on bearded Italian male models. Jesus has Jewish looks, not Caucasian. Yes I know you would ask aren't there white Jews but remember that He lived before the final destruction of Jerusalem and the scattering of Jews from the holy land. (in fact the name Jews comes from the tribe of Judah, people believe that some other tribes of Israel are lost in other nations.) Referring back to the old testament, remember that the Israelites were warned in the 1st commandment not to have any graven image of anything in heaven or earth and also to not bow down or worship any such image. Christians need to be careful not to also have "media or pix " images of Jesus. 1 Like |
