Reza Aslan, author of the new book, “Zealot: The Life and Times of Jesus of Nazareth” has been interviewed on a host of media outlets in the last week. Riding a publicity wave, the book has surged to #2 on Amazon's list.

You could probably go with one if you only take the first chapter of John.

I long for this day, For the Scriptures say, “’As surely as I live,’ says the LORD, every knee will bend to me, and every tongue will confess and give praise to God.’”

Roman 14:11

Please, LORD, just come quickly!

I typed books but changed it to chapters. And I don’t know why. Maybe I was thinking about one chapter from each book that says He is risen.

According to Pamela Geller (who’s dealt with him repeatedly), he has a hardon for Islam as does our current president. “Secular” visionary or not.

If by “Secularized” you mean an apologist for the governmnet of Iran who appeals to retarded secularists.
