Besides those passages of the New Testament...the ones of scattered actual notes on the sayings of Jesus made at the beginning of His ministry to a few decades after and eventually (late first century) included in the collection known as the Gospel...that plainly state Jesus Himself claimed NO portion of Godhood for Himself ("Why do you call me good? No one is good but God alone"; Mark 10:18; see also Mark 10:45), just a rather special relationship to God who sent Him to represent Leviticus is for only the one with no sin...i.e., God Himself at post-life judgment...and that love of God and everyone on earth are the two greatest commandments with acceptance of all people of any faith or circumstance as children of God (Mark 3:32-35, Luke 9:49-50), there is one passage in particular that stands out in regard to certain modernists who claim they or their associates are like Jesus Himself.
 
Some modernist evangelists claim they or their government faith-funding sources are as Jesus, but note John 17:15 in re what Jesus told God just before His last day in re those who didn't listen to or even believe in His words: "I do not ask that you take them out of this world but that you keep them from the evil one".
 
Now, these are the same modernists who float a stagecraft that the USA is awash in jobs, trabajo, arbeit...work and income opportunities, gosh darn it, and ditto boundless dividend-paying investment opportunities; unfortunately, they say, there are all these "racists, xenophobes, and nationalists" of even Hispanic nature (re seeing economy as a national whole) keeping foreigners not yet here from such Kingdom of God; at the same time, religiously, they float stories in nature of implying Jesus never said things yet so THEY will do it as new prophets; whoever these alleged bad guys are will be put out as God's wrath upon them for disobeying the will of the new Messiah(s) "clinging to the violence Christ didn't stop and the hypocrisy He taught"...if Muslims like Laden or Iran or Hamas do that to Muslims since Christ is part of Islam's beliefs and pan-Christian faith-funded leaders embrace a new Christology so even Imams punish only "bad Muslims" holding to the old sayings of Christ, for all the here foregoing those losing out are the goats of Revelation (come on, the European Union even adopted a flag with stars and such to mimic "end days" signs) and those left over will be the sheep taken into the fold of this second-coming like New Age.
 
Obviously, some have sort of read interfaith sacred texts, but apparently only insofar as necessary to exploit them. Anyone at all having read Revelations will instantly recognize, for example, that the signs of stars and such are apart from the hand of man, as will be the second coming of the crucified Christ Himself without, next time, any need for human or divinely-done birth whatsoever.
 
As to those human-born the usual biological or man-assisted way(s), at best they might be prophets, and where they allege Christian belief, as such maybe they should re-read within aforesaid Matthew 22:36-40, which concludes "The whole law and the prophets depend on these two commandments"...then construe same with the entirety of Matthew Chapter 23, which is a categorical enumeration of every kind of religious and secular hypocrite there is by Jesus, and His excoriation of all of such activity as being worse before God than doing nothing at all...clearly, one stops being a Christian where one practices hypocrisy.
 
In sum, I don't aim to say this or that faith has reacted improperly re Jesus Christ in terms of His prophecy or Divine collaterals. I don't aim to say anyone should or should not specifically believe in Jesus Christ. What I do say is that I find nothing in the oldest Scriptures carried forward a great deal of time that indicates it's even possible for anyone to suggest Jesus assigned or taught naughty things to His believers, and that when one requires based on faith-funded or other neo-evangelical or secular ministers/officials that Christ be quashed or re-written, without demonstrable tether to national security or concern for what Christ's original words were, such modernists seek only to have their cake and eat it too via either taking away the right to worship or publicize the original message of Christ, or taking away the right to worship God except as the theology of faith-funded or neo-evangelicals directs, or both.
 
Of course, only neo-evangelicals could apprise us of where that would leave, say, agnostics or atheists who refuse to practice the "true" or "official" religion.
 
Again, this is all respectfully noted as some officials and evangelicals in the USA have declared to us that they or theirs are more in tune with God, or are seeking power to implement things like "Christ really would", or both.
