" The Emperor of Mankind and Jesus vs all four Chaos Gods in the Warp or in the Galaxy". This is the title of the proposition that started this Forum. It is pretty vague, does not set limitations and leaves a lot for personal interpretation. As the Lord of Silence stated, what is the status of Jesus in this conversation. Is he generic, mortal man Jesus, is he the demi-god Jesus and/or is he 33% of the "Holy Trrinity"? With the way things are in Warhammer 40K, there is a chance that Jesus and the Emperor wouldn't  work together due to the "Divine State" that the Imperium has elevated the Emperor to. Jesus would interpret this as Mankind worshipping a False Icon,  which breaks a Commandment. Once Jesus finds out about the Black Ships filled with psykers whose sole purpose is to be fed to the Emperor, then that's a singular case of breaking the "Thous Shall Not Kill" Commandment. Now, Jesus could, since he is of that kind of mind, request the Emperor confess his sins prior to the two teaming up so the Son of God can absolve him of any "wrong doing". That for one would be a very long confession, for the Emperor has to go back 10K+ years of transgressions and sinning and the penance the Emperor would have to undergo would be biblical to say the least. I am sure that Jesus would want his tag team partner chaste and pure when combatting evil.

I believe that in this case, the Emperor is alone on this one. Jesus de Christo and the Emperor are polar opposites. Granted with Jesus being infused with the Holy Trinity and what not, aside from the Old Testament where God threw down some righteous curb stomping as a consequence to mortal transgressions that the Lord of Silence has referred to, the Christian Pantheon aren't much to a slugfest outside the Angels. The presence of the Angels themselves may give the Emperor flashbacks on how he failed his son, Sanguinus during the Emperor's Siege of the Vengeful Spirit. There are numerous should of, would of, could of's in this hypothetical which leads to such a scenario being very far from practical.......from the assessment of things presented. I do like the Ark of the Covenant being referred to as the Super Box of Death.
