How would Jesus be if He were here today (in the U.S.)?
What would He be doing for a living?
How would He dress?

Jesus would become a pope and lead his people to glory.

Amen...but I'd see Him wearing jeans and a T-Shirt and boots. He was a Carpenter.
Then, when He preached, I'd see Him dressed as a Priest (for He was a Priest).
Ok, let me rephrase that question...if Jesus were here today (not His return, but if He had been born say 29 years ago).
And wouldn't it be more appropriate for God to be The Pope since He is The Father (and that's what pope literally means)?
But, I gotta say...I love your answer!

I'd see Jesus also wearing jeans, t-shirts, and boots because of his occupation. But I'd see him in the ghettos with the prostitutes, gang members, etc. Preaching and teaching.

You might say Jesus was down for the homies. =P

He'd be right in the midst of those places that some Christians condemn.
With the homosexuals, the pagans, the Godless.
It's easy to preach to the choir.
A real preacher takes The Word to where it's needed.
Jesus didn't come for the saved, but for the unsaved.
And as a Priest, He'd be wearing Priestly Vestments when holding Mass and Holy Communion as He did in the NT.

He wouldn't be hiding out in 10 hour bible study groups with other believers, but rather out in the real world, trying to get his message across. |

Jesus (like the Monks who stay at Monastaries) was homeless once He began His ministry. Monks are the example of what Jesus did...live "off of" The Church.
You're right...Jesus would've lived like a monk...no home. Going to where they are needed.

If Jesus were here (which He is!) he would be among His disciples, training them up and sending them out preaching the gospel, teaching them to love others as He has loved them.
