Did jesus have a penis?
Did jesus ever get stiff or was he divinely impotent?
Did jesus have balls with semen in them?

Did semen ever come from his balls out of his penis from say wet dreams?
If not, then how did the semen ever get replaced, semen has a short shelf life, if jesuses semen was never ejeculated then it would ROT IN HIS BALLS. 30 year old semen would be very rotten.

For wet dreams to occur them jesus would have had to have a dream, either about women, men or animals, what did jesus dream about?

From the logical pathway above we see that Jesus MUST have been a sexual being if he existed, whether he acted on that sexuality by masturbating or having sex is another Q.

However he must surely have at least had wet dreams, and dreamt about other beings having sex with him. Whether human women men or animals. So when he was awake he must surely have remembered these dreams, and also then looked upon fellow humen sexually.

If he was heretrosexual, then he would have looked sexually upon women, like the prostitute who bathed his feet with oil n hair.

  Jesus said he was Son of Man or Son of Adam; so naturally he was not a woman; and his mother took him as a son not a girl.
  
  Jesus must have married and have had children and proginey. Bible is an incomplete book, it only cover 3 years of his life; they missed a lot.
  
  There is some material to that effect.

  the reason i think is that to admit that jesus had sex would ruin the sin thing about having sex before your married. if he never had sex then he has no right condemming those who enjoy sex. christians love to use "sin" as a way of making anything they disagree with wrong.

  Like couturepopcafe said, The Bible tells us that Jesus was tempted in all areas, as we all are. But He resisted all temptations.
  
  Jesus had a purpose here on earth far greater than your outlandish imaginings. It's called offering to save your soul, if you can entertain the notion of something that gracious and awesome!

  I wonder why it's taken so long to address the utter ignorance of male physiology expressed in the original post. Also the ignorance of just how choice affects sexual behavior. Men don't have to act like bonobos, looking with lust upon whoever takes their fancy, in order to be sexual human beings. In fact, Jesus spoke rather strongly against even looking upon anyone with lust in their hearts, saying it was tantamount to actual adultery.

Jesus was rare human being born out of no sexual intercourse. So those who are not born out of intercourse have no sexual drive and hence resort to opposing any type of sex - straight, homosexual.

Would it really make any difference in his message if he was a sexual human being? As long as he followed the fathers instructions as to proper behavior?

It is said that he came to the earth to resist temptation.
And to give himself as a perfect sacrifice.

Would that include setting a perfect example for husbands to follow?

I think that it was customary for a priest, before he became a priest ... to be married. As it was also the custom to wait until the age of 30 before becoming a priest.

I personally have no problem believing that he might have had children. In fact his message might be enhanced by it ? I don't know.
The children would have to have been hidden from the "Beast" that is later prophesied in Rev.
That would be the only problem that I see.

  Jesus was not customary at all. He was really against tradition. Tradition makes Word of God invalid, He said.
  Custom is tradition and he was not traditional at all. He opposed tradition.
  It would be also uncustomary to get married and leave at age 33.
  Jesus was free of genetic (DNA) marker of Adamic sin. There was no similar partner for Him. Besides it was not His mission to get married and have family.

  The only reference to "NOT Interpreting" that I am aware of is in reference to PROPHESY of scripture.
  
  These are said to be messages that come from God himself.
  
  I also do not recall the bible stating whether Jesus was or was not married.
  
  Too many people read things into scripture that are not actually stated.
  
  If the definition of being a Christian is to believe everything that a religious leader tells us to believe!!
  
  Then I don't want to be one!
  But if reading scripture unabated by the reasoning of another person. And believing those things that are said to be spoken by God and Jesus ... if this is being a Christian ? I do sign up for that.

In all fairness, one must assume this logically: Jesus was sent/born as man to experience man's ordeals and therefore must have had desires of the flesh. But he could not and did not act upon them because then he would have sinned. End of story. I'm just sayin'.

But desires of the flesh are not automatically wrong. It's only when it's used as an expression denoting desires not of God that it means wrong desires. Eating, sex, drinking, exercise, work... all those are desires of the flesh but they're not sinful. The Bible says not to be a whore but it never condemns sex itself as sinful.

I liked the movie from long ago called "The Last Temptation of Christ" because it assumed that being married, having children, living a normal life was Jesus's temptation - and why wouldn't it be? I've sometimes wondered about what he did about sexual desire but I don't actually see why it would matter. It's no sin to marry. (Or to do what guys do...he would have just been considered unclean for the specified period of time. He was always touching unclean people and becoming ritually unclean anyway, how would that be different?)

  I'm certainly no Bible scholar but I think Jesus' temptation was when Satan tried to seduce him into using His power to possess the land and the riches and everything else, to use His power for His own personal gain.
  
  I believe the only way one was 'allowed' to have sex was after marriage, not before. So if He didn't marry, he could not know a woman. Marriage itself wasn't the sin.
  
  I think the reason He did not marry was because it supposedly did not serve the reason He came. There was to be no physical heir. He came to fulfill a certain agenda and marriage was not part of it. I guess someone will come on with chapter and verse.

Why do Christians insist that Jesus was not a sexual being?

Having any knowledge of the political climate of the first century; can you imagine what would have happened to any off spring of the Messiah, if he had had any?

His followers would have kept that fact a secret.

And the Church that the Roman Empire built would not have allowed his heirs to come forward.

Maybe he did and maybe he didn't. One thing for sure..., no one wanted it to be known if he did.

But myself ? .. He may have gotten married but I am fairly confident that he didn't have any children.
He would have known that the end of time for the Hebrew Nation was to soon come.

He would have known that the Hebrew people were going to be scattered throughout the rest of the world; not being allowed within any city in Israel for over 1650 years.

I don't think that he would have allowed his children to have to go through that ordeal.

Jesus never married! It says Jesus never sinned! If he never married and did not sin then he could not have had sex! The scriptures and all the other writings there is no evidence whatsoever to think this!

Jesus, full of the Holy Spirit, returned from the Jordan and was led by the Spirit in the desert, where for forty days he was tempted by the devil. He ate nothing during those days, and at the end of them he was hungry. The devil said to him, "If you are the Son of God, tell this stone to become bread."

Jesus answered, "It is written: ‘Man does not live on bread alone.’ "

The devil led him up to a high place and showed him in an instant all the kingdoms of the world. And he said to him, "I will give you all their authority and splendor, for it has been given to me, and I can give it to anyone I want to. So if you worship me, it will all be yours."

Jesus answered, "It is written: ‘Worship the Lord your God and serve him only.’ "

The devil led him to Jerusalem and had him stand on the highest point of the temple. "If you are the Son of God," he said, "throw yourself down from here. For it is written: " ‘He will command his angels concerning you to guard you carefully; they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.’ "

Jesus answered, "It says: ‘Do not put the Lord your God to the test.’ "

When the devil had finished all this tempting, he left him until an opportune time.
—Luke 4:1-13

Many argue there are signs in the bible that point to him being married. But I have studied it in great detail and found nowhere saying he was married, nor have I found anyting leading one to believe he could have been married! Mary Magdeline had 7 demons in here and Jesus cast them out. She persued Jesus and is consistently with them all. Whe was devoted to him because he healed her! I think people confuse an old tradition with the Jews with him being married to her.... Jews kissed other Jews on the lips just as we shake hands. I believe this is part of the misconception!

There is simply no hard evidence that Jesus Christ was married to Mary Magdalene or any other woman. The vast majority of scholars, whether they are liberal or conservative, agree that Jesus Christ was not married.

"For all that is in the world, the lust of the flesh and the lust of the eyes and the boastful pride of life, is not from the Father, but is from the world" (1 John 2:16).

Since Jesus came from the father, he could not have the lusts of the flesh... lusts of the flesh is from this world! Read the scriputre above!

"For we do not have a high priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who has been tempted in all things as we are, yet without sin" (Hebrews 4:15).

Jesus came to this world but was not of this world! He was tempted but could not sin! Those who believe that Jesus could not have sinned do so based upon His nature as God. Since God cannot be tempted to sin, and Jesus was God, then Jesus could not have sinned. This is known as the impeccability of Christ.
He was tempted by satan and God allowed this to prove sin can be overcome! It was impossible for him to have sinned because God cannot sin!

James 1:13-15—Let no one say when he is tempted, “I am tempted by God”; for God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does He Himself tempt anyone. But each one is tempted when he is drawn away by his own desires and enticed. Then, when desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, brings forth death.

Again... God/Jesus cannot be tempted by sin! It is he who has his own desires who gets enticed... if you do not have desires you cannot be tempted. Satan tempted Jesus but Jesus was not tempted to act upon them! He could not have sinned and God cannot be tempted!

Again, Christ faced no such struggle because His one and only desire was to do the will of the Father. He could not be led to stray even when He was at the point of death. Matthew 27:34, Mark 15:23—Then they gave Him wine mingled with myrrh to drink, but He did not take it. He would not so much as take anything to dull the pain of the torture He was enduring.

While Satan may have tested Jesus, to see if He would sin, and while Satan tried every way he could to lead Jesus to sin, there was no way that Jesus would have ever even considered sinning against the Father—because He did not have our sinful nature. We, however, are tested by our own fleshly lusts and desires that bring forth nothing but death.

Whenever the bible speaks of Jeus' natural relatives it speaks of his father, his siblings and his mother... but never does it speak of a wife! To believe that Jesus had a wife yet
most reliable accounts of Jesus' life failed to mention one of the most salient aspects of that life. How unlikely!

If Jesus and Mary had been married, then we should expect that he would have entrusted her into the care of the Beloved Disciple at the cross, just as he did with his mother. The absence of this action strongly suggests that Jesus and Mary were not married.

I believe Jesus was unique!! And, I'm sure everyone can agree with that? We know that Jesus was fully God and fully human when he walked among men! It is true this is hard to comprehend and he surely could have very well married and remained sin free...however, in what I've read and studied (including the bible) and writings after the bible I do not see any evidence to support this theory! There is not enough evidence to assume in any way that Jesus was married to anyone, much less Mary Magdeline! I can speculate why he would not marry... I
imagine that Jesus realized his unique calling was incompatible with marriage and family life. I believe Jesus knew his calling and it was his life! He was sent for a reason... and I believe he did not marry because of the demands of his calling for his Father!

And I hardly think that if Jesus fathered children they wouldn't be mentioned, these would be grandchildren of God... think about that... I think it was not Jesus calling to be married. He was sent for a purpose!

If it were a court of law and one would have to prove that Jesus was married by the scriptures and all other writings of that time... the evidence would be null!

Jesus was a male; his mother new and from her the others.

He had parts special for a male.
Jesus had a mouth; he used it for eating, drinking and talking. Jesus had a nose to breath; he had hands to pick things; feet to walk about.

He had male parts; for what use?

He did marry and had children; he was potent and not impotent.

This one is a no brainer.
Jesus did not have sexual relations even though a lot of women desired the man who could heal and was a prominent person and completely interesting to talk to.
Jesus came to do the fathers will. Jesus had a mission and that mission was
1) to preach the gospel of christ
2) to die as a willing sacrifice on the cross

Spiritual common sense dictates that Jesus did both preach the gospel and die on the cross. Seeing as jesus was a man of duty and serious about what God wanted, born of a virgin, (imagine hearing that story if you were not already aware of God in you).

There is a difference between living, according to the desires (food, entertainment, shelter, etc) or the lusts (sexual anxiety, greed, selfishness, etc) of the flesh (body and its mechanisms)
1 John 2:16 "For all that is in the world, the lust
of the flesh, and the lust of the eyes, and the pride
of life, is not of the Father, but is of the world"
Jesus was in all ways tempted as we are. Jesus was tempted by all the lusts and desires that we experience because he lived in a fleshly body. Jesus overcame everything perfectly. There was no sin in jesus and jesus did not marry to prevent the sin of fornication, he overcame the lusts of the flesh.
How did he do that
The same way christians today overcome their ungodly impulses.
Galatians 5:16 This I say then, Walk in the Spirit,
and you shall NOT fulfill the lusts of the flesh.
You have heard many christians say that God resides in them, indeed many with a false belief claim the same thing. So, here comes one of my favorite sayings, it is only God in us that stops us from sinning.
And of course jesus was the God of the bible (yahweh) in flesh, come down to show us how to do all things. This is why God was born of a woman, to experience flesh. And this is why jesus was hung on the cross, to be the last blood sacrifice of that system (a lamb substitute without blemish) to prepare the way for a great host of people to also do as Jesus had done. No greater love has any God shown in that He should sacrifice his only son that a world might be saved.

  Absoultely. I believe many want to make Jesus like us. But Jesus was unique. He was God in the flesh. He was tempted but he did not give in to those temptations because it is impossible for God to sin!

  if he wasn't able to have the lusts of the flesh, he wasn't really a man, so how could he really know the temptations of humans.
  
  How far does one go before you consider it sin ie these "lusts of the flesh".
  
  eg if he had a dream desiring a woman, is that sin?
  
  Or was he never equipped with semen etc?

You would have to know the Jewish way of Life. Marriage was created for man. He made woman and man for each other. Hebrews seek marriage very young. They are very devoted to their family.
Being married helps them keep from having sex outside of marriage.

Yahshua. So what if he was married. Does that make him any less than who he is? What’s the big deal and why has the church put so much effort into stressing his singleness? The church and its hidden motives need to be looked at, seriously. The church, the original beginnings that turned into the Roman Catholic religion that was instrumental in changing things to suit its own hidden agenda; things like the original appointed holy days as determined by YHVH, according to the books we call the bible or torah or Tanakh.

  I believe it doesn't matter. One could say he was or he wasn't but either way the scripture does not prove he did or he didn't! I believe by the life of Jesus recorded in the bible that he did not marry. He was not your usual man... his purpose was a higher calling!

Yahshua was a Jew.
For him to be single, would be to consider him out of balance and incomplete.

Things left out of scripture means people know only half truths.
Christianity and the Catholic church all came from the Pauline doctrine (except the Narazenes)

Male and female, created equally the same by the same Creator; created as two physically, yet one for they are the same, each with his or her own strength. The female is by very nature and as spoken of in the Bible/Torah, wisdom. She would rule wisely and not with intimidating fear to control people, but to allow people to live and be as intended by the Creator of all that is.

It is more likely that Yahshua would not been married than not.

  Paarsurrey did you not see the word "peace"????
  
  He was not just a man. He came to Earth with a purpose! He came as a man for a reason. If you do not understand the smallest concepts of the Bible, which I see from other posts that you don't, then how on earth could you understand why Jesus was a man?
  
  You can argue against the Bible all you want... but the fact is the Qu'ran was all hearsay.... people memorized events and they weren't recorced for many, many years after Muhammad was dead and gone!
  
  Think about a few facts will you??
  
  1. You seem determined to undermine Jesus as God's son and the Bible's truths, yet your own Qu'ran is merely hearsay.
  
  2. You put a lot of faith in a man who pushed war, took booty (openly admitted to theft), had more wives than allowed by what the Qu'ran says, and took his step son's wife (which was a direct result from divorce which was brought forth because of Muhammad wanting the woman sexually), and many other immoral issues with this man.
  
  3. God always calls his prophets himself... yet with Muhammad we find (by Muhammad's word) that an angel came to him and called him for God. If this is true then why coudn't Muhammad do miracles as the rest of the prophets could that were called by the one true God?
  
  There are many, many more I could write but I wont. I don't feel like typing it all! But I think you should really look at the life of Muhammad to understand why people don't agree with you. He was not a prophet of God... he wasn't even a moral man! He was a warmonger and thief who led many wars just for the booty. He allowed his men to rape women from villages they took over through war.
  
  If anyone should be looking at their religion and questioning it.. it should be you Paarsurrey!
  
  Now peace and stop trying to say Jesus was just a man! In the end, when you stand before God... and he asks you why you did not accept his son... you can argue with him as he tells you "depart from me, for I never knew you because only through my son can you enter the gates of heaven".
  
  So good luck with your life Paarsurrey and stop persecuting christians... but you realize the Bible foretold people would!

Don't ever join spiritual discussions, but....

I love the way God confirms things for us in the scriptures. I have never found a concept that is singular and mentioned only once. When the Lord conveys a point, He makes that point at least twice in the Bible -- and sometimes more.

I feel it's important to point out that Jesus or Yeshua is not the only young unmarried Hebrew person in the New Testament. Mary, Martha (2 sisters) and Lazarus (their brother) were surely single (Luke 10, John 11). The scriptures state that it was "Martha's home" that Jesus was welcomed to.

As unmarried women, Mary and Martha relied on Lazarus for income and protection. I'm sure their parents were already dead. Martha is depicted as a devoted homemaker in charge of the household. Lazarus probably lived with his two sisters. If he were married, his wife would have entreated Jesus the way Martha did when she said, "Lord, if you had been here, our brother would not have died."

The resurrection of Lazarus was an absolutely pivotal moment in the gospel accounts, and it was a single man that Jesus raised from the dead. Is there a better hint that single people were considered worthy, if not traditional?

Would these three unmarried Jews be considered odd in society? Most likely VERY odd. But they weren't ostracized. Did one or all of them marry sometime later? Yes, I have no doubt. But at the time of this account, they were all single.

But Jesus never married. God's plan for the Messiah was for a more exalted purpose -- the salvation of souls.

  From the Old Testament, Jeremiah (another Jew) was commanded by the Lord to be single his entire life. He's the other example I can remember.
  
  It has nothing to do with what Jeremiah "desired". In point of fact, this meant that Jeremiah lived with unfulfilled desires.
  For all we know, he could have been in love with a special girl, but had his plans changed dramatically.

I believe that Jesus was indeed human in every way but sin. So, I would imagine that he was tempted sexually - possibly in His dreams, as you mentioned, and certainly in His waking hours. As an unmarried man (according to canonical scriptures), he would not have acted on His sexual desires. I believe He sublimated the energy in other ways that were as constructive as sex can be for those in marriage.

I know you said you had directed the OP to those who did not believe that Jesus was a sexual being. My reply is primarily directed toward those folks as well.

I think for us to yammer on about Jesus' humanity, yet deny His sexuality is asinine. Fully God and Fully Man - Fully Man seems to indicate to me that He would have experienced, with great awareness, His own sexuality, but would have chosen not to act on it in what would have been considered a sinful manner.

My personal opinion as to whether Jesus was ever married? Given the importance that he placed on the sanctity of marriage in the canonical scriptures, and given the importance that the Christian Church places on it as well, if Jesus had been married, there would have been no desire on anyone's part to keep it hidden. So, I think, if there's no mention of it in scripture, then he remained a single, celibate man until his death. -- Just a thought.

VERY interesting question.

Well, if your goal was to ask a question that nobody has ever asked before, I think you accomplished your goal. But, is this really a question we need to ask? As...in who cares?

Some priests never marry, and claim that they never have any kind of sex, not even masturbation. But, you know that's a big lie. So, why would anyone question Jesus? What's the point?

This is also the first time I have heard someone say that the Church claiming any religious figure was a sexual anything. They even claim that Mary gave birth to Jesus without having sex with anyone. But there certainly was a lot of "begots" going on.

The biggest one of all is Adam and eve...and apparently Adam was here first, then Eve, then two sons, then Adam died, yet there are suddenly all these other people. Meaning that we are all children of incest, which the church will deny...claiming the whole beasts in the field BS. They just can't admit that the story of Adam and Eve and the bible is too full of holes to be possible. Which is why they still try to pick apart the bible every day for hundreds of years to justify it.

I think the early church probably erased all information that might have shed some light on who he was other than his role as savior. Probably to avoid arguments like this thread. If he was going to be held up as the son of God, he had to have a godlike life. Above possible reproach. In every way.

I think there are enough passages in the gospels nuanced to imply an intimate relationship with Mary. Coupled with the gnostic gospels, and the vilification of Mary early in the church's history; it's difficult not to wonder.

Why it would matter, is beyond me; but it obviously upsets the religious to consider the possibility.
