Jesus, while he walked the earth, had a large drawing among the people. Some followed him wherever he went and listened to him raptly. Those that were able to get close enough were able to have conversations with Jesus and what they learned could be used today. This information has been, largely, ignored in this modern world and studying his word has taken a back seat to other things.
A world of politics legislate against the words that Jesus has given us. If this was studied with the same seriousness as some of this legislation we would have a better society. It has been captured and available for all and there is no real need for a person to person conversation which is not possible anyway.
War would be the subject of one of those conversations. One of the things that our Savior would comment on is that all things that are done should go toward improving our society. This would be based on what is the greatest benefit to people, generally. The discussion would not center around religious differences, however, as that is only a smoke screen for what is happening in places like the middle east, where he came from.
Gun control would likely be a subject many would bring up to him. Yes, he said that blessed are the peace makers, however, he did not discourage his followers from carrying the weapons of the day. He was also not a fan of unnecessary violence balanced against the need to defend oneself.
When discussing abortion, the visitor gets an entirely different idea than what is in the media. People are divided about this issue now and they were not divided about this issue then. It has no bearing on what is the proper way to care for family members, born or unborn. He would be the first to state that science, in the form of Latin words, defining the term fetus as an unborn person.
There are many people who have stated that if they had a chance to talk to Jesus, they would tell him a thing or two. They would be wrong about this as the nature of the man and his presence would quell any thoughts they had that they know better than he does. The nature of men and women, from the earliest mention, has not changed and can not make the decisions they need to make without the insight he provides.
Reading the Bible, not all of the talks Jesus had with people will make a great many modern people happy for the issues they are presented. These have been written down and they are available for an imagined conversation with him. Most people, facing the choices they have and the decisions they make will feel bad about them if they knew what the right choice was.
Having any number of conversations with Jesus would, they believe, not be in the best interests of most people. The things they believe are right and morale will fall very short of what he left for us in the Bible. His tolerance, religious teachings and unconditional love would not fit in with most peoples lives and they would know it immediately.
