(In response to "Who would Win in a fight: Jesus or Odin.")

I came upon this months after it was posted but I feel some context is needed. First, Jesus died on a cross for the sins of the world, an act of mercy and grace. If Odin did exist, he would be considered a false god as far as the Bible is concerned. Jesus is stated by the NT as being the embodiment of Yahweh of the OT (the Word of God [John 1:1, 1:14)(Colossians 2:9). In the Book of Revelation Jesus returns as the Lion of the Tribe of Judah and pretty much hands all rebellious humans and rebel angels (i.e. false gods) their collective heads, especially in chapter 19 where He is the rider on the white horse and has the hem of His robe dipped in the blood of His enemies. He is the Creator of the universe (Genesis chapter 1) and therefore the entire universe responds to and belongs to Him. In other words, Jesus would imprison Odin for his rebellion and false presentation of himself as a god forever. This means that Odin is one of the rebellious angels and Yahweh’s creation and, therefore, less than Yahweh. In the Bible’s context Jesus takes this in what cannot even rise to the level of a “curbstomp”. This is pure “spite” as a battle from the perspective of the Bible.
