Jesus: Tales from the Crypt

Yep. In a book called The Genesis Factor by Yacov Rambsel, he mentions a book called : The Archko Volume written in 1887 by Rev. W. D. Mahan. Rev Mahan went in seach for written evidence of Jesus. He went to the Vatican in Rome, Italy and to Constantinople, Turkey.

Among many writings, he found a letter written on a papyrus scroll to Caesar by Pontius Pilate dated about 31 A.D. following the crucifixion of Jesus Christ.
Excerts from this letter are in the book The Genesis Factor. It includes Pilates description of Jesus, Pilates first meeting with Jesus, Pilates describtion of the mob at the crucifixion and the noise and darkness at Golgotha.

Pilate also quotes Ben Isham, a sentry at the tomb during the resurection.
It gave me chills reading that description!

Also, the Muslim's Holy book talks of Jesus and his Mother Mary too, I believe. There are several historians from that period who mention him too.

Also, the Vatican has a peace of wood that is supposed to have been from the cross and somewhere in Germany, there is a spear that is to be the one that pierced his side. Rumor has it, one of the nails from his hands or feet is encased now in the handle.

I do believe in Jesus always have, and I believe that he died on the cross for my sins. However proof of Jesus being a man there is, proof of his being a God there isn't. He could have been a man, with a good true heart who spoke to the people and gave them hope in a horrible time. People have always prayed to a God, be it a sun good, or a rain God. We need that, need to know that there is something beyond us, beyond this life, someone or something that can lead us, save us, heal us. There has never been a culture on this earth that didn't have their God or Gods. Was Jesus the sun of God, is there even a God, no one really knows for sure, we can only hope?

Argranade do you really believe that these faith healers have magical powers and heal people on TV? If they can do this, why don't they go to the cancer ward of any childrens hospital and heal those children. Why have I never seen one of these people in a hospital proforming ANY work? They certaintly want money. What need does a true healer of God have of money, he can proform miracles let him make money appear by magic.

No they don't have magical powers, the people do.

It's not magic but faith that's healing these people, those stand up people are only trying to make other people belive in God by laying there hands on there heads and saying you are healed, but if you listen there saying 'Do you belive?'' ... it's the faith in the people that is healing them selfs.

I don't realy understand whats going on but I do belive people are getting healed by there faith.

If you don't have enough faith miracles won't happen for you, no matter how much you cry or beg into the heavens.

The flesh is strong but the mind is weak.

If you want God to help you .. ask what you can do to help him first.

You don't have to be rich or poor to have a miracle happen to you, all you need is faith but even then that can't always be enough .... life is life & you just have to deal with it. The sick, blind & crippled people are put on this earth for a reason .. it's not Gods mistakes because God does not make mistakes as he is perfect.

........check out this great bunch of Aussie kids.
Errrrrrrrr....no comment on the fake halo please....lol

I got my copy from Amazon.com. It's really a book about the Bible codes and Ramsel's research in them. The info about Pilate was just one surprise! :D
