Social Media And Sightings Of Jesus

By Lila Barry


All around the world people from different backgrounds and beliefs have claimed sightings of Jesus. These claims have been through posted videos, verbal claims, written claims, as well as pictures of what they claim to be this Christian figure. For some it seems to be truth, but for others, a complete act to gain publicity, or start controversy.

Have you ever thought you had seen an off the wall figure in a cloud or in in a meal that you prepared? Well all around the world there have been claims of Christ appearing in everything from prepared food, grease in pans, and even the walls of abandoned buildings. Most of these sights have been documented in picture or video form and posted on certain websites for the world to see.

Believers of the Christian faith will quickly report that these sights are not the real thing. They believe that Christ does not appear to anyone, but gives signs of His presence in other ways. They do however believe that He will one day return to take His people Home, though no one knows the day or the hour.

There are those who truly believe that they have seen this massively influential religious figure, and there are those who think that all of these sights and claims are simply publicity stunts, and people trying to make fun of the Christian faith. Obviously opinions vary concerning this topic, and all are entitled to believe as they wish. Typically those who claim these types of sights have also claimed to have seen extraterrestrial figures as well.

With religion being a very rough topic to discuss these days, it takes guts to claim these sights. There are numerous video clips, which can be found online, of those making these claims, as well as pictures of items that appear to look like that of Christ's face or an alien life form. Whatever one makes of these videos and pictures, is their own opinion, yet many are disgraced for reporting.

If one were to research different claims of sights from around the world, they would find numerous similarities. Such as no noises or sounds coming from the sight itself. As well as the descriptions of what is being seen as either a shadowy ghost-like figure, or radiant light in the form of a human figure, most claims match in these areas.

In most cases, those who claim these sights often capture their experience via photo or video, typically on their smart phones while out and about. Many of these videos and photos are posted by their owners on various social media web pages for all to see. Once posted, the claimers and those who view the post can comment on what they see and how they feel about it.

There have been thousands of claims of sightings of Jesus over the years. For those interested in these claims and learning more about this topic, online and library research is highly recommended. Most social media websites can be beneficial, as well as actually interviewing the men and women who have actually reported the sights in question.
