New painting, "Alien Christ"

Rick Jacobi, Alien Christ, 18" x 24", acrylic on canvas panel, 2019


















 



I've been thinking about this for many years.... If God "sent his son" to Earth, would God not also do the same thing on other planets with alien civilizations? I think that it would be quite likely, at least in some cases. Of course, it would not be the earthling known as Jesus, a.k.a. Yeshua; it would be some alien being with a name we probably could not pronounce. Alien beings on other worlds may or may NOT be humanoid; however, I have presented them as such, and given them they typical "gray alien" heads, and dressed the figures in typical "biblical clothing", just to make the image more understandable and iconic.

What do you think about this? I welcome your comments.
