Jesus Christ and His Naked Life
Return to DiscussionsJesus was born Naked. Jesus was Baptized Naked. Jesus talked and relaxed with his disciples Naked. Jesus was beaten Naked. Jesus was crucified Naked. Jesus arose from the grave Naked. One day we will stand before Him Naked, and He before us Naked. Till that day comes, let us praise him Naked. Nudity has many meanings in scripture. We mostly hear about Nudity being a symbol of shame and guilt. But there are other meanings. The symbol of Innocence, Nothing to Hide, Revealing Truth and Vulnerability. Jesus Christ is the perfect example of Nudity.
My belief is that Jesus was fully human and sexual, penis and all, but whatever was written to clarify that got edited out through the ages. The kind of integrity, compassion and authenticity Jesus calls us to requires an internal nakedness which makes running around without pants feel simple and straight forward in comparison. So what does it really mean to be as beautiful as the lilies of the valley without needing to toil or spin? We can't infer much about pubic hair or other specificities about Jesus' nakedness, but neither do we need to. Face it, Jesus lived in an age before pants, but he still articulated a simple message in clear terms, to love one another.
