Did Jesus ever kill anyone?

I'm sure of what I believe.
I'm sure that Jesus is fully man, and fully God. I'm sure the Christ that said that we should follow Him, and imitate him, was not merrily the carpenter's son, but was actually God in flesh, the eternal One.

Do you have a different perspective of his divine nature/human flesh dichotomy? Sure you don't believe Jesus was some divine flesh, jfrog?

There is no historical reference to Jesus of Nazareth killing anyone.

He preached/taught quite the opposite. He came to build up, not destroy. He came to fulfill, not destroy. He came to set free, not put to bondage. He came to save, not condemn. He came to give life, not death.

To answer "yes" to this question, there is not all information known to the audience (some implied theological argument hidden only to the surveyor), or you aren't understanding the question properly.

We refer to the manifestations of God to His people by "Father, Son, Spirit" and the question concerns specifically, Jesus Christ. In the future tense, Christ will judge the world, and a wealth of goodies in Revelation... but nothing present tense, or past.

What is your opinion on how Ananias and Sapphira died?

If the man Christ Jesus killed he'd be no better than Mohammad. The thing about Jesus is that he was a man of peace who's teachings turned the world upside down through the power of love.

From what I can tell, my idea of Jesus being fully man and fully God differs drastically from yours.

If Christ is God, then Christ has taken peoples lives. In fact, if Christ is God, then it seems everything that God has done can be attributed to Christ. There is no way to separate the actions and say: Jesus didn't do this but God did. If Jesus is God then Jesus did it by virtue of being God.

I believe they were smitten by the Holy Ghost.
