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.

I have been interested in the shroud for years myself. “Studying” might be a little to far for me but knowledgeable about it I am.

There is NO DOUBT in my mind that it is real. That the image on the shroud was made when Christ was resurrected.

Do I NEED this to believe in Him? Absolutely not. It is very fascinating none the less.

...I have studied the Shroud of Turin for years. I believe that it is real.

So what?

I don't mean to be insulting, but what does it really matter?

• Is anyone (even a single person) going to be damned to Hell, because they didn't believe the shroud was authentic? No.
• Will anyone have their sins forgiven, because they believed in the shroud? No.
• Will anyone go to heaven, because they believed in the shourd? No.
