Why in churches is Jesus portrayed as a White-skinned man?
AWS SS 88:
why he is portrayed as different races has been explained,by c walker i think.
The fact of the matter is that Christians believe that Jesus is the son of God, and for most people it is easier to relate to God if he looks the same way you do.
which makes a lot of sense,to me anyway

Documents from the time in which Jesus was born (historical facts) it was said that Jesus had light Brown Skin. Any other way is just historically innacurate.And just so you know, I did not get upset that I saw a picture of a White Jesus, I simply was curious as to why. I don't understand why he would be portrayed as Black or Asian either.

There are no documents that exist that state what color Jesus skin was. You are flat out lying.
