So the people who have died can never come again... never!!!

The Communal Crucifixion of Jesus

  My proposal is that multiple details about the death of Jesus were deliberately created but not just at random as mere narrative fill-up. They were created to describe Jesus' death amid a tissue of resonances and a volley of echoes from the biblical past. By John Dominic Crossan The Jewish historian Josephus, the Roman historian Tacitus, and the Christian Apostles' Creed have very little in common. Except for this one thing: that, respectively, Jesus "had undergone the death penalty in the reign of Tiberius, by sentence of the procurator Pontius Pilatus"; that "Pilate, upon hearing him accused by men of the highest standing amongst us, had condemned him to be crucified"; and that Jesus "suffered under Pontius Pilate [and] was crucified." Pontius Pilate was the Roman governor of Judea and, appointed by the emperor Tiberius, he ruled from 26 to 36 C.E. He and the Jewish high priest Caiaphas collaborated not wisely but too well and they were

Jesus never said in the Gospels: “I was dead and now I am alive!”

Written and collected by Zia H Shah MD A comment by a devoted Christian in the Muslim Times gave me the title of my article or column for today. I have known it before as well that Jesus never said in the Gospels: “I was dead and now I am alive!” However, today, I took on a careful reading of all the canonical Gospels from where he is put on the cross to the ending of each Gospel.  It is called  Horizontal Reading  of Gospels.  So, I read the account horizontally with a special purpose in mind. Did Jesus describe his death and his resurrection, in so many words? What is  Horizontal Reading  and what do we learn by this simple tool, about this issue, at hand? We will also consider if the followers of Jesus, have been putting words in his mouth? Horizontal Reading  is a method of textual analysis used to compare multiple accounts of a similar event – such as the two creation stories found in  Genesis , or the accounts of the life of Jesus found in the  Synoptic Gospels  of

Jesus ‘Used to Be Jewish’? That’s Not What the Gospels Say

“And remember when Jesus, son of Mary, said, ‘O children of Israel, surely I am Allah’s Messenger unto you, fulfilling that which is before me of the Torah, and giving glad tidings of a Messenger who will come after me. His name will be Ahmad.’ And when he came to them with clear proofs, they said, ‘This is clear enchantment.’’      (Al Quran 61:7) Temple Mount Jerusalem.          Temple of Solomon was destroyed by the Romans in 60-70 AD Source: The Huffington Post By: Bernard Starr ( Psychologist/journalist/college professor) When I interviewed Christians and Jews for my book "Jesus Uncensored: Restoring the Authentic Jew," I heard over and over "everyone knows Jesus was Jewish." But when I dug a little deeper I discovered that "everyone knows he was Jewish" really means "he used to be Jewish." Then I found that many still believe that Jesus was born Christian and that he launched a new religion. For example, Ja
Source....   The Crucifixion Was A Fraud Billions of Christians believe  Christ  was crucified, buried, and then rose again . This is the basis for  Christian faith . What if  Jesus  survived the crucifixion? Would this be pure blasphemy or is there reason behind this assumption? There is evidence in the gospels themselves that say  Christ   may have survived the crucifixion  and that  the crucifixion to put it bluntly was a "fraud."  Writer and researcher  Michael Baigent , author of  Holy Blood-Holy Grail , and other scholars believe that the gospels are suspect to the theory of the survival of  Christ . He says his theories are not intended to offend, but one must keep a clear  distinction between the  Jesus  of history and the  Jesus  of theology even though the  Jesus  of theology is based on the historical  Jesus . One can only find the figure of the  Jesus  of history by teasing out of various historical documents, some which are the New Testament.

Epigraph: “And We caused Jesus, son of Mary, to follow in their footsteps, fulfilling that which was revealed before him in the Torah; and We gave him the Gospel which contained guidance and light, fulfilling that which was revealed before it in the Torah, and a guidance and an admonition for the God-fearing.” (Al Quran 5:47) … The New Testament consists of 27 books, 13 of which are letters by St. Paul. The Holy Quran, recognizes in principle, the revelations given to Jesus, may peace be on him, but, makes no mention of St. Paul or his letters. The letters of St. Paul according to the Holy Quran, do not belong in Scriptures, as these are not endorsed at all by revelations to the Prophet of Islam, Muhammad, may peace be on him.
