Hello,

If Jesus were alive today in this world, and he stood right before you, and you could ask him any question or as many questions as you desired, what would you ask?

Note that I’m conducting some research. Questions posted here may be used in this research.
 
  1. Would you join us at our table?
  2. Is there anything we can do for You?
  3. Would you please help me to have a kind and loving spirit?
 
I think the first thing I would say, before I asked any question would be, I’m sorry for the pain my sins added to your suffering.
Then the question I would ask would be, can I have a hug?
Then all the gazillion questions I have would come out. 🙂
 
I would ask Him to forgive me.

If I were allowed more questions, among them would be about the salvation of the several people I have known who committed suicide.
 
Well, technically, we can ask Jesus anything, it’s just that we don’t always know when or how to listen to Him.

But if we had a 1 on 1 conversation, man I wouldn’t know where to start (that is, provided he considered me worthy enough of his presence and communication).

How are my deceased relatives, What exactly do you want me to do, Should I grow hair and a beard as cool as yours? 😛

I’d imagine the most important thing to ask him about myself and my life would be “Am I doing it right?”
 
Just as a clarification, it would be preferable if the questions were not specifically about yourself, but anything you’d ask in the way of being about him, his experience, the truth of things, etc.

Are you kidding?

When are you coming to take me away from all this!!!
 
WoW!

Peter was right there, with Jesus, and he denied Jesus three times, so would have that been a good time to ask Jesus this question is a better question.

The better Question is, if you were sent back in time to the time of Jesus, would you deny him as well, or would have you piled in been true to him and helped him to carry the cross and never denied him?

The better question is, IF you were called, would you anwer the call? that is what you should ask Jesus today, for your faith says he sent the Holy Spirit to guide you today, right now.
Are you in denial that Jesus is here to guide you, and to lead you now is the real question. Do you have Faith of the mustard seed, or not?

That seems to be more asking yourself, not asking Jesus. I’m not sure what you were getting at.

Truly, I wonder if I would be able to even speak, much less think of an intelligent, worthwhile question. Sort of like in the song, I Can Only Imagine, you know?
But one question that pops into mind every now and again is, if/when life on other planets is found, are they also part of Your salvation?
Another would be why are we set up as families here if we won’t be set up as families in Heaven? My understanding of Heaven is that we won’t be interested in being with our “Earth families” because our focus will be solely on God. It doesn’t seem quite right to me somehow.
Obviously (to me at least) these questions aren’t popping into my mind in order of importance… 😃

So what do you ask?

Principally what I have been taught to ask. I don’t view prayer as a way to get things or find out things, but as a way to be.

Send your Spirit upon your people (for example of a “way to be”, praying this prayer has an effect of changing what I will see when I look at other people, and also is a way to live as a member of God’s people and in trust of God’s promises. The Spirit does a variety of things, in case the nature of this prayer is unfamiliar to you. For one example, the Spirit guides the people. For another, it can mean the same as the last prayer in my list, for the whole earth to be renewed, for the end time.)

Help the following people/groups, including those in Purgatory (these are certain dead people).
Give me grace and grant that I cooperate with it.
Forgive me and create in me a clean heart.
Conform us (and me) to the image of your Son (this includes sacrificial love).
Come soon! (about the consummation, renewal of all things in Christ, the new heavens and new earth, kingdom come in glory, etc.)
 
I’d ask Him a lot of questions about his childhood, the unknown years in Nazareth. What games did he play, what were Mary and St Joseph like, day to day. What was home life like? What were some of His family stories…what did they talk about in the evening. How did St Joseph work? What did His friends think of Mary?
