Its not a matter of whether he can, more or less whether he will. It wouldn't go against the free will thing if he told them to stop with his Godly word or saying something that would make them stop without using his Godly abilities.
First you say he would use his powers, then you say he wouldn't. So which one is it?
If Jesus came across bandits raping a girl with every intention of murdering her afterwards, would he intervene or let them kill her & let the bandits leave in peace & resurrect the girl?
Post your scenario & lets discuss what you think Jesus would do.
Well, you can also interpret Jesus in His Revelation persona which will be much different than His Gospel persona. When He came 2000 years ago, He was here to be the Lamb of God. When He returns again, He will come as an Avenging God of flame. So, if He came in the course of a rape, He would save and heal the woman and obliterate the bandits; in Revelation, Jesus is going to come in the form of an eleventh hour miracle and lay waste to the army of darkness, leaving rivers of blood and obliteration; Satan, the ant-Christ, the False Prophet, and demons will not be spared this carnage.
Yeshua was a deluded 1st Century Middle-Eastern Jew
Unsubstantiated claim is unsubstantiated.
Tag me, next time.
I do not need to ''substantiate'' it because the burden of proof does not lay with me; extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. The historical Jesus was a 1st Century Middle-Eastern Jew. Taking the assumption that you're a Christian, the burden of proof is on you to substantiate why Jesus was a superhuman. If you cannot substantiate it, then I see no rational reason why I should believe the claim of him over any other false-prophet or anyone else who makes silly claims for themselves; the term for such people is delusional.
What proof do you have that Jesus was diluted? No one among even His enemies claimed Jesus was crazy. Jesus obviously substantiated all of His claims, because He amazed a gathering of thousands and than spawned a religion of billions. His most extraordinary following came during the first 350 years of Christianity, when millions of Christians amazed under imminent threat of persecution. Actually, it’s you who’s sounding diluted in being in denial about the true nature of Jesus which is in accordance with all of His claims. Christianity is the product of others tooting Jesus’s horn not Jesus tooting His own horn.
He would save the girl, and try to talk the bandits out of it. If they got violent, he'd perform a miracle.
Depends if the texts about Jesus is totally right, partially right or just fiction.

Ya there is no indisputable historical evidence for Jesus as a person. For all we know he could be a legend manufactured by a guy and spread through a few writers, or a conglomerate beliefs personified as a man during that time period, or a normal man with myths attached to him by his followers, or he could be the real deal. Who knows?

Your opinion that He was deluded is indeed unsubstantiated. It is itself an extraordinary claim. Your own simple deduction based upon selective evidence is not at all intuitive let alone normative.
And speaking of which, I'm sot sure when "extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence" became anymore normative than "with great power comes great responsibility" but we all need our creeds now don't we?
@kuonphobos: My ''claim'' is not extraordinary nor does it even need ''substantiation''; it's rooted in probability and fairness.
My response has been posted in the religion thread.
Being taught Christian values all my life, I am confident that:
he would grab those bandits and tell them ''You made a grave mistake doing that'' *Rips their hearts out and throws them to The Devil*
Pun intended? XD
@noone301994 That has to be one of the best gifs I've ever seen.
