Did Jesus express fear?

This question is a difficult one to evaluate because the New Testament does not specifically say that Jesus expressed fear.

According to New Testament Bible, some people may think that Jesus expressed fear about the way He would be die.  Some may interpret His sorrow in the Garden of Gethsemane before being captured then crucified as fear. Some may think that when He prayed this prayer, it was a sign of fear, “If it be at all possible, Father take this cup from Me.” However, Jesus also prayed, “But not my will, but Yours be done.” Such surrender of the will depicts total trust in the Father.

In some ways, trust and fear would seem to be incompatible. However, in His human form, in His human weakness, Jesus no doubt feared the pain of the crucifixion. He knew that this was one of the most painful ways a person could die. He would have apprehended it as a human being. Yet, as God’s Son who could have saved Himself, He still chose to go through with it.

Did Jesus express strength?

According to the New Testament Bible, Jesus expressed spiritual strength. He also expressed physical strength at times. We see this in the Gospels when He turned tables over in the temple to show His anger towards the money changers. Read about it here.

Jesus would also have been somewhat physically strong as a carpenter.

However, Jesus also expressed physical weakness in His human form many times. He was weak from fasting 40 days and 40 nights.

Read here in Matthew’s Gospel about Jesus’ weakness.

Jesus was also very weak after being whipped 39 times, not eating and being provoked for hours. He was too weak to carry His own cross and another man had to do it for Him.

However, He was not weak per se. He was strong spiritually and He would also have been somewhat robust or strong as a carpenter.

Did Jesus express humor?

Since Jesus was the Son of God but also the Son of man, He would have expressed humor. He possessed human characteristics (although He did not have a sin nature). In this way, in His human form, Jesus would have expressed humor.

What kind of attributes did Jesus express?

The New Testament Bible (and the Old Testament which prophesies of Jesus) depicts many attributes which Jesus expressed. They are too numerous to include in a brief answer. The best way to learn of His attributes is to read the New Testament Bible.

Here are some of Jesus’ attributes we find in the Bible:

Jesus was the Son of God and the Son of man.

As such, Jesus possessed the following attributes:

Love, compassion, humility, patience, longsuffering, mercy and mercifulness, graciousness, gentleness, meekness, kindness, holiness, perfection, prayerfulness, submission, obedience, divine anger, joy, peace, sensitivity to others, the ability to read into people thoughts and hearts, spiritual strength,

Jesus' attributes are seen in His nature. According to the New Testament Bible, Jesus’s nature was perfect and sinless. He was a person of impeccable (true and perfect) character. But He did have a character. He did not lack the attributes of human nature. He simply lacked sin. Jesus expressed emotions like anyone else, but in the right way. In the New Testament Gospel of John, chapter 11, the Bible records “Jesus wept.” This is the shortest verse in the Bible and shows that Jesus clearly had feelings.

Jesus’ nature expressed love, grace, mercy, compassion, kindness, goodness, understanding, righteous just and anger (i.e. He was angry at injustice, hypocrisy, unrighteousness etc.).  Jesus reflected the nature of His father. 

According to I John 4:8 in the New Testament God is Love. Since Jesus was one with God the Father, He too was love and His nature expresses love. 

Jesus’ nature was divine inasmuch as He was one with His heavenly Father and was God’s son.

Did Jesus express love?

According to the New Testament Bible, Jesus was love incarnate (in human form). We see that Jesus expressed love to every sector of the human race.  We see in the Gospels that Jesus was often with children and desired that they be loved and considered. 

In the New Testament Gospel of John, chapter 11, the Bible records “Jesus wept.” This is the shortest verse in the Bible and shows Jesus love for the people.

When one of Jesus’s closest friends, Lazarus, died,  Jesus showed compassion for Lazarus’s family; He resurrected Lazarus (see the Gospel of John, chapter 11).

Jesus’s nature expressed love because He reflected the nature of His father. 

According to I John 4:8 in the New Testament God is Love. Since Jesus was one with God the Father, He too was love and His nature expresses love.

According to the New Testament Gospel of John chapter 8, when some Jewish leaders wanted to stone to death an adulterous woman, Jesus, showed love to her and said,  “ I do not condemn you, go and sin no more”.

Did Jesus tempt others?

According to the New Testament Bible, Jesus never tempted others. He did not tempt people.

If Jesus had have tempted others, He would have sinned, but the Bible teaches that He was without sin. On the contrary, others tried to tempt Him often. Read about that here.

The New Testament Bible teaches that God doesn’t tempt man, and Jesus was one with God as the Son of God.

Did Jesus condemn prostitution?

The New Testament Bible reveals that Jesus condemned prostitution inasmuch as He condemned all sin. However; Jesus showed in His teaching that what a man thinks makes Him a sinner – not just what He does. Jesus condemned sin but loved the sinner. He died for the sins of mankind.

Read this story of Jesus’s encounter with a prostitute as seen in the Gospel of Luke in the New Testament Bible:

Luke 7:36-50.

36 Then one of the Pharisees asked Him to eat with him. And He went to the Pharisee’s house, and sat down to eat. 37 And behold, a woman in the city who was a sinner, when she knew that Jesus sat at the table in the Pharisee’s house, brought an alabaster flask of fragrant oil, 38 and stood at His feet behind Him weeping; and she began to wash His feet with her tears, and wiped them with the hair of her head; and she kissed His feet and anointed them with the fragrant oil. 39 Now when the Pharisee who had invited Him saw this, he spoke to himself, saying, “This Man, if He were a prophet, would know who and what manner of woman this is who is touching Him, for she is a sinner.”

40 And Jesus answered and said to him, “Simon, I have something to say to you.”

So he said, “Teacher, say it.”

41 “There was a certain creditor who had two debtors. One owed five hundred denarii, and the other fifty. 42 And when they had nothing with which to repay, he freely forgave them both. Tell Me, therefore, which of them will love him more?”

43 Simon answered and said, “I suppose the one whom he forgave more.”

And He said to him, “You have rightly judged.” 44 Then He turned to the woman and said to Simon, “Do you see this woman? I entered your house; you gave Me no water for My feet, but she has washed My feet with her tears and wiped them with the hair of her head. 45 You gave Me no kiss, but this woman has not ceased to kiss My feet since the time I came in. 46 You did not anoint My head with oil, but this woman has anointed My feet with fragrant oil. 47 Therefore I say to you, her sins, which are many, are forgiven, for she loved much. But to whom little is forgiven, the same loves little.”

48 Then He said to her, “Your sins are forgiven.”

49 And those who sat at the table with Him began to say to themselves, “Who is this who even forgives sins?”

50 Then He said to the woman, “Your faith has saved you. Go in peace.”

 (New King James Version).
