(Mark 6:3) Isn’t this the carpenter? Isn’t this Mary’s son and the brother of James, Joseph,[a] Judas and Simon? Aren’t his sisters here with us?” And they took offense at him.
Yes, unfortunately the New Testament kind of omitted his first 32 years when he was swinging a hammer. Whether or not He was truly a carpenter is therefore somewhat of a leap of faith friend. g8rb81 - If you are having disbelief at this small historical fact I’m guessing your unsure about the miracles Jesus performed as well...? /s
There's a lot from the Bible that is missing. The earliest accounts of the older section or "Old Testament" date almost 700 years AFTER the events. Considering what we know now about information manipulation and how stupid easy it can be, I am very certain that a version of the original law has been hidden that preached a more forgiving message and was more consistent with the teachings of Jesus. But such texts would encourage freedom of thought and ideas and well... as history has shown us, the cabal makes every effort to stifle that.
I know a lot here have this boring idea of what the Kingdom is like and aren't ready to accept the possibility that the hippies may have been closer in alignment... but the truth is that remains to be seen. All I know is if you are certain you know the Will of God.... you're likely very wrong.
(John 21:25) But there are also many other things which Jesus did, which, if they were written in detail, I expect that even the world itself would not contain the books that would be written.
AFAIK Jesus was the son of a carpenter and never hit a lick at the trade. Prove me wrong. Get started.
I'll be your huckleberry:

Anyone that believes Jesus actually turned water into wine is... special.
Color me special then...!
