What color is Jesus
Jesus is from Israel, ethnic Israel and even arabs and that the mediteranian region area were and are and do have light skinned olive skinned people (like italian and greek people). Also every ethnicity has a color range. So we do not know what his "skin shade" is but we do know the Jewish people we see today on the news, the ones newly immigrated here from there, and the ones whove been here for a longggg time are not black brown skinned. This is why arabs and Jews are classified in US as caucasian. And it is why Rome (who ruled Israel at the time and those who came to faith there [way prior to RCC]) depicted him in their art as they did.
Today (since the late '90s to early 2000's) there's black cults in US going around trying to say Jesus is black. And push a black narrative on social media. Avoid them. He wasn't from Africa. Every country out there tries to change his ethnicity. He wasnt black, and def was not Asian and not blue like Hindus paint him.
The important thing is He is God and our Savior.
We focus on truth God has revealed in Scripture (and that is about God, the salvation the Savior brought, and how to live a righteous life and share the Gospel). Let's not let those who are focused on race distract us; if it turns out he is light skinned when those people see him and it is a deal breaker for them 🙃... they're likely not the ones headed to Heaven...cuz no one who hates is of God's family.
Isaiah 53:2 tells us He had no appearance that would draw us to Him. I am sure that was intentional in His design, but for us who love Him... what He looks like doesnt matter cuz He is God & our Savior... and in our hearts he looks like and is Love.
