Barabbas

Jesus Christ is the I AM, eternal, ridged, unchanging, and constant Word made flesh. He can never not be who He is, yet through different eyes, different perceptions of Him exist. To the believer He is Savior and King, but to the skeptic He was just a Jewish man who was crucified. To some religions, He was a good Teacher, and to others He didn’t even exist.

perfectly. When the trials of Jesus and Joan of Arc were going on thousands of years ago the public did not play as much of a role in trails.

The “Shadow of the Galilean”, written by Gerd Theissen, is a novel that shows the quest of the historical Jesus in narrative form. This novel does a good job at bringing in the historical study recorded in the gospels with a fictitious character, Andreas, who is from Sepphoris during the first century. Andreas is introduced as he is being interrogated by the Romans. Here it begins to detail some of his life, as it comes out he deals in fruit and grain, was in Jerusalem for Pentecost, and that…

A Time to Live and a Scheduled Time to Die How ironic that Shirley Jackson in 1948 created a story that illustrated mankind’s compulsion to create ceremonies that would endanger the lives of their inhabited populace. What’s so alarming is that this practice is still carried out today in remote parts of the world. Indigenous tribes and self-established societies in the Far East and the Amazons continue to bedazzle and amaze the advanced civilized world whenever they are found. Most civilized…

After questioning Jesus with no response in return, he sends Him back to Pilate, refusing to place judgment (Luke 25:7-12).
