What does Jesus look like? Good question, so many think long shoulder length hair, pearly white teeth, broad shoulders and so forth. The truth is, flesh and blood do not inherit eternal life, and in Peter its written, It does not appear what we will become (in the new man/creation) yet when we see him as he is, we will be like him. Therefore what does Lord Jesus look like? He stands over 7 feet tall. He has no ears eyes or nose sockets, the legs aren't divided, he's a body of light born of water and spirit, he's eternal and everlasting. There is procreation in the new man; the new man is neither male or female; the new man is one with the Father through the Son and how we know who we are is by the names we are given written in the lambs book of life before time began. The name we receive along with hidden manna when we overcome ignorant darkness so the truth is pretty important, you can't see the light without it. How do you receive the truth? You have to turn to Lord Jesus face to face, having faith, and ask him for the truth. The asking opens up the door to receiving. M

For many scholars, Revelation 1:14-15 offers a clue that Jesus's skin was a darker hue and that his hair was woolly in texture. The hairs of his head, it says, "were white as white wool, white as snow. His eyes were like a flame of fire, his feet were like burnished bronze, refined as in a furnace.”
The language here is figurative. White wooly hair is symbolic of a lamb. White as snow is symbolic of purity. Burnished bronze is symbolic of one who has been tried by fire or undergone great duress. The passage isn't meant to give a physical representation of Jesus, but a symbolic one.

You might not have known,
Nostradamus was an astrologer.
God forbids astrology and anyone looking to astrologers for information.
In fact He puts the sternest warning to those who do so. Isaiah 47 says,
10For thou hast trusted in thy wickedness: thou hast said, None seeth me. Thy wisdom and thy knowledge, it hath perverted thee; and thou hast said in thine heart, I am, and none else beside me. 11Therefore shall evil come upon thee; thou shalt not know from whence it riseth: and mischief shall fall upon thee; thou shalt not be able to put it off: and desolation shall come upon thee suddenly, which thou shalt not know. 12Stand now with thine enchantments, and with the multitude of thy sorceries, wherein thou hast laboured from thy youth; if so be thou shalt be able to profit, if so be thou mayest prevail. 13Thou art wearied in the multitude of thy counsels. Let now the astrologers, the stargazers, the monthly prognosticators, stand up, and save thee from these things that shall come upon thee. 14Behold, they shall be as stubble; the fire shall burn them;
Nostradamus is looked to as a prophet or religious leader to some.
Jesus goes on to address those who prophecy or claim the following.
Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not. 24For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect. 25Behold, I have told you before. 26Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not. 27For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. 28For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together. 29Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken: 30And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven:
Matthew 24 He tells us where we will see Him. He will shine as lighting from the east to the west.
Nobody will need to go find Him. He will appear suddenly AFTER THE TRIBULATION in the sky.
When someone writes about Nostradamus, reject everything they say outright. The same goes for the charismatic preachers on TV/ YouTube who make such prophecies. Reject them and their denominations. Jesus tells us all that we need to know from the traditional Holy Bible.
