Am I Jesus Christ?

Christians await the return of Jesus Christ, who according to the Bible resides in Heaven next to God the Father. I must say that I didn’t hear nor see God the Father and that fact says that I am most likely not Jesus Christ. However, when Jesus Christ returns to Earth, He should create paradise on earth. I have defined the only possible way that will unconditionally and unavoidably achieve it. This fact says that I still may be Jesus Christ.

Twenty years ago I was very disappointed with the world around me and therefore decided to find a way to create a good society. It took me ten years to define a new socio-economic system that would make a good society and the same amount of  time to get a clear vision of how the future of mankind would look like. I have presented the results of my research in the book “Humanism”. The system I have proposed is completely different and much better than all known models and will, as time passes, replace them all.

Three professors of philosophy, sociology and economy from the Belgrade University were very kind to read my book on my request. Their reviews of my book basically say that I am not crazy, that I did not write stupid things and that I offer a significant change and improvement to society. They were not able or not willing to analyze my work deeply because my book turns everything they knew upside down.  

The system I have proposed is much simpler than the system used today, however it still requires a lot of time for its understanding because it is totally new. For getting used to the new way of thinking and taking a good picture of the new system, besides reading the book it is necessary to perform a lot of time in its analysis and that is something that I was not able to initialize with anybody so far. Someone might guess that scientists receive many new systems daily so that they do not have time for studying my work. That is not a case. Besides, there is only one irrefutable study in the history of humankind that promises Paradise on Earth and that one is mine.  

In the last ten years I have sent thousands of letters to University professors, social scientists and researchers; presidents of countries, corporations and various societies; editors of journals, newspapers, publish houses; on line magazines and news groups; political parties, foundations; to ordinary people all over the world and got some responses but actually, I have not made any progress.  

Authorities have been mentally oppressing you people from the immemorial time so that you have not developed an ability to find the truth in you yourself without their influences. For the purpose of building a better world I do not use “rocket science” in my book but very simple and logical conclusions that are strange to you. That is the reason I have to build a big authority to me myself in order that you even consider accepting my ideas. Unexpectedly, it seems that the Christian religion might help me in that.

At the beginning of this year (2003) I found, through the Internet, big similarities between what I wrote and what Jesus Christ is supposed to do. I will talk about main points that I found in the holy Bible and which are accepted among religious people as the absolute truth. I quote here important verses from the Bible and from religious articles from Internet:  

When Jesus came the first time it was to settle the problem of sin. He did not come to settle the problems of government nor the social dilemmas that harass our world. When He comes again He will solve all government problems, and political and social ills. Source: http://www.abetterhope.com/whois/coming.html 

Jesus Christ will return to earth to spiritually transform its people and establish utopia, a paradise on earth. The combination of removing Satan's influence, giving humanity God's Spirit and teaching the world the laws and ways of God will produce 1,000 years of peace and a society blessed beyond its wildest dreams. Source: http://www.gnmagazine.org/booklets/bk16/reign.html.

The ideals of happiness, peace, freedom, justice, and prosperity, all of which have been merely dreams of most of the world’s people throughout the ages, actually will be realized during the Millennium. The millennial reign of Jesus Christ will be a transition government from the inept, corrupt rule of mankind to the orderly, perfect rule of God, the Father (1 Cor. 15:24-28). As impossible as it may seem now, all evil permanently will be detached and disunited from all good after this period of 1,000 years, the Millennium, has concluded. http://www.tedmontgomery.com/bblovrvw/C_13a.html

The wolf and the lamb shall feed together, the lion shall eat straw like the ox. (Isaiah 65:21-25)

And He shall judge among many people, and rebuke strong nations afar off; and they shall beat their swords into ploughshares, and their spears into pruning-hooks: nation shall not lift up a sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more. But they shall sit every man under his vine and under his fig tree; and none shall make them afraid; (Micah 1-4).

"I will cleanse you from all your filthiness and from all your idols. I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you; I will take the heart of stone out of your flesh and give you a heart of flesh. I will put My Spirit within you and cause you to walk in My statutes, and you will keep My judgments and do them" (Ezekiel 36:22-27).

Jesus' reign will bring: Abundance, prosperity, stability, restoration and security (Amos 9:13 -15). 

My book describes the system that will fulfill achievements of these quotes. Please find what it is about in these short articles here: Humanism Shortly  and here: Essential Thoughts.

In the new system I have proposed, evil in society will not exist any more. Paradise will be established on Earth and as it is said in the Bible, everyone would go from here to Heaven. However, I doubt those quotes above are supposed to be understood entirely literally. For example, if I were Jesus Christ, I would neither like to be the President nor the King of the World. Simply, I value my freedom. However, my absence from power will not be missed because I made a better solution. I have created a system that will allow you people to take control over yourselves, following the will of God.

I am sure that the realisation of the system I have proposed is an inevitable process. The system will work because it follows the nature of society. The nature of society is, in its essence, very simple but so far it was not defined accurately and the history of humankind has been proving it by social instabilities. I am also sure that there is no other good choice for society because it does not have more than one nature. If Jesus Christ comes after me He would not be able to find a better solution for humankind in the existing nature. The system I have proposed may be tested in a few years in a small community and that would give the answer, whether I am right or wrong. If the system I have proposed proves that it may make Paradise on Earth where "lions and antelopes will eat together", where state's laws will not be needed any more while the people will live in a perfect harmony, am I then Jesus Christ?  

Another very important fact in the Bible is Judgment Day. 

Quote: Romans 14:10-12 - We shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ. Every knee shall bow and every tongue shall confess. Every one of us shall give account of himself to God. In this life people often fail to keep appointments, but no one will be absent for this appointment, and no one will be tardy. No excuses will be accepted. No amount of wealth, influence, or power can prevent your appearance. 

That cannot be taken literally, otherwise I would pity Jesus Christ. Every second about 5 people die around the world. Jesus Christ would have to work non-stop on it and judge each man in 1/5th of a second. That seems to me unlikely. For that purpose, God must have some kind of information technology that collects information about each man. I have simulated a similar process in my system. Such a process might show the people what they should expect when they die while they are still alive. Please pay attention to the value of productive power of man from the article Humanism Extensively for example. If a man at the end of his life possesses a positive value of his productive power he would probably go to Paradise, and vice versa, if at the end of his life he would have a negative productive value he would probably go to hell. A man with a negative value of productive power will certainly not have a pleasant life in this world. That will force people to be very responsible for everything they do and that will contribute to building Paradise on Earth.

I’ve found, in the holy Bible, a number of similarities between Jesus Christ and me but I will not talk about it any more because many people can satisfy this criteria. Beside that the Bible gives too many choices for all kind of interpretations. Also, I question total accuracy of the verses in the Bible because men wrote them for two thousand years. A man is very inclined to imagine, invent and add onto things and events and that is a reason there might be exaggerations and controversies in the Bible. That is a reason I would rather talk about simple facts that might contribute to being considered as Jesus Christ. 

I was born in Zagreb, Croatia, former Yugoslavia on April 30, 1955 at 7:30 PM. Immediately after my birth, the salute roar of cannon fire thundered throughout Zagreb and all major cities in Yugoslavia, together with fire works in the honour of May 1, the socialist Labour Day. In the socialist countries, the 1st of May was as important of a public holiday as Easter or Christmas in the Western world. The doctor who helped deliver me then said to my mother that a great man was born. Isn't this an interesting sign? I tried to calculate what the probability of this happening to another man was, and the result I got was between 1:1,000,000 and never. Can this sign indicate the birth of Jesus Christ?

In the socialist Yugoslavia religion was not very popular. I was baptized and used to go to church once a year. Until this year I was barely religious, better said I was neither a believer nor an atheist. If I was a strongly religious man I would have developed sensitivity to the signs that God has probably sent to me and would be much more aware of who I am. But, I am still new to religion, do not know much and do not want to make a mistake. However, I think there is a chance that I am Jesus Christ and it surprised me more than you. I know, me as Jesus Christ is supposed to be the greatest authority in the Christian religion but unfortunately I missed all of the courses about that or somehow I do not remember anything. Take my excuses and I will try my best to make up the omitted knowledge.

When I decided to find a good solution to change the world, I got the basis of the vision (see Humanism for Dummies) about the future of mankind almost instantly and that vision has given me the strength to be persistent. Might it have come straight from God? Or must it? It is not a rarity that a young man wants to change the world. I am probably a unique person because I was persistent over developing my system for the last twenty years while the work has been mostly hard and I have not received any recognition for doing it. However, I did get small support from people. This support is presented here: Comments. 

I was proclaimed as one of the best architects in Yugoslavia even before I graduated the faculty (see The Republic Square). Soon after my graduation I gave up from a successful career as an architect in order to find more time for defining a good solution to change the world. Who ever knew me, suggested to give up from changing the world with a comment that it was impossible and a loss of time. But I knew I was on the right track right from the beginning of my work. On the other hand, you people have the fully defined system in my book available now and you still do not know what to think about it. Isn’t it strange? 

I delivered two lectures about my work in Belgrade, Yugoslavia in 1992 and 1993 while there was a war. Ten years later, on November 1, 2003 I had my first public appearance at a conference of the Society for Utopian Studies in San Diego, South California. At that time, there were huge, furious wildfires there. Before my departure to California I joked to my wife Dušica: “If earthquake occurs in California while I am there, I must be Jesus Christ”. I spent only one night in San Diego. When I woke up the next day (November 2) in my hotel room and turned on the TV, the first message I received was: “San Bernardino Mountains (close to San Diego) was shaken this night by two earthquakes with a magnitude of 3.5”. Coincidence?

Jesus Christ is expected to make miracles by which He is apparently supposed to be recognized. Jesus Christ should, for example, be able to walk on water. I saw the magician, Criss Angel, walking on water on television. So why has nobody considered him as Jesus Christ? If I learned how to make such an illusion, would I then have a chance to be accepted as Jesus Christ? However, I think that I have made a far greater miracle than walking on water. I have defined how to make the world a wonderful place to be, how to make heaven on earth. This is something that nobody has ever managed to do. Now, one could complain that my theory has not been proven in praxis yet, and it might be wrong. Also, one could suggest that Jesus Christ would simply make paradise on earth and that would make Him recognised. I would have to respond that even the Lord Jesus Christ is not expected to force people to go down the correct path, but the people are expected to embrace the path of Jesus Christ. People will one day accept my path because they will not have any other choice. My path is the only good path.
