where the hell is jesus?

Where is Jesus? You will remember learning that he was put to death on a torture stake, and then he was resurrected. Shortly thereafter, he ascended to heaven. (Acts 2:33) Hence, that is where God’s Kingdom is—in heaven. That is why the Bible calls it a “heavenly Kingdom.” (2 Timothy 4:18) Although God’s Kingdom is in heaven, it will rule over the earth.—Read Revelation 11:15.

You should look more in depth though at www.jw.org for answers to what God's Kingdom is and how Jesus plays a role. Also, find the answer to why is there so much death and suffering if there is a kingdom.

"He ascended into heaven and is seated at the right hand of the Father. He will come again in glory to judge the living and the dead; His kingdom shall never end." (Nicene Creed, 4th century)

The concept of the Bible being an errant book is an invention of Protestantism. Since it did not believe that the Church was led by the Holy Spirit, it had to come up with something to explain its new set of beliefs. Protestantism added an interpretation of "only" to scriptures that said we are saved by faith (*only*, say the protestants.) The great bulk of Christianity, namely Roman Catholicism and those in communion with it (Eastern Rite Catholics) and the Eastern Orthodoxy (Greek, Russian, Serbian, etc.) do not see the Bible this way. It is a book of tremendous value, but it is subject to the interpretation of the Church that collected, vetted, protected and promulgated its contents. It is not God.

Forgive me.

@ if jesus arose from the dead then where is he

In Heaven

@ "the holy spirit" is just my common sense

Oh my dear brother, no, He isn't. The Holy Spirit is a unique person.

---

@and i truly don't believe in the bible it was written by man

That's true. Men wrote it under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit

---

@ and i tell you what theyre not going to right down everything said "perfectly" with no mistakes,

That is the power of the Holy Spirit...which you've already demonstrated you know nothing of.

---

@ i think abunch of people who did follow jesus (if even real) just wanted to believe in god so bad that they started writing loads of bullshit about him, then some people found alllll the bullshit and put it into one book.

That's a nice hypothesis. The only problem is that there's no evidence for it.

@ prove me wrong, because "just having faith" isn't working for me.

Unfortunately, faith is where all your answers are.

"without faith it is impossible to please God" (Hebrews 11:6)

No faith = no anything.

@ LOTS of systems have literally been created from nothing.

While even that is debatable, the issue is not "systems" coming out of nothing, but rather the claim that the universe and all that is in it was created out of nothing...

He lives in and among his faithful so that would explain why you don't sense his presence.

Jesus is dead, if he ever existed.

oh really did jesus tell you face to face? @flowerchild

He is here right now with us -

He is alive, you can bet your life on it.
