How so ?
I’m reminded of the old hymn, “You ask me how I know he lives........ He LIVES within my heart.” The Shroud isn’t proof its an interesting artifact. The proof is in the power of possession.
I have reserved the rights to write a book about the Shroud and mankind’s arrogance. It takes place in the future where decadence reigns supreme and an all-powerful world government dominates everyday life.
In their arrogance and desire to destroy what remains of Christianity, the government gets a team of atheist scientists to clone Jesus by using DNA found on the Shroud.
These atheists hope to show that Jesus is just an ordinary man and not the Son of God.
But the man who is born from the cloning turns out to be anything but an ordinary man and most definately is not the Son of God.
Mankind creates the anti-Christ.
Easter 2011, Jesus resurrection, Wisdom of God, Message to doubting Thomases
“Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men.”…First Corinthians 1:25
What I am about to present is intended primarily for the Doubting Thomases out there. First some observations. Jesus was born in the Middle East. His skin color, neither lilly white or black, was average. He was born into a lowly existence and therefore could speak to everyone regardless of status. His message is simple and true. I can find no fault with it. He was crucified. No other method of death would have gotten the attention of humans. If that is not enough for you, I have studied the Shroud of Turin for years. I believe that it is real.
Bump.
Not really as the copies of the shroud demonstrate. It's right out there with the house where Mary was born, a house supposedly carried by angels from the Mideast to Italy, with stops along the way.
Believers in the Shroud would like to put the burden on doubters since they have no proof and can produce none, to prove their contentions.
