The Real Jesus

The present work examines the Gospels, Matthew, Mark, Luke and John to describe the life, death and resurrection of Jesus. Using the same sources from the New Testament used by Christian leaders as the basic beliefs of Christianity beliefs, those beliefs are not supported. The simplest explanation of the facts reported by the Gospels writers is that Jesus did not die on the cross, he was not brought back to life by God and the death of Jesus was not to pay for the sins of mankind. Ch 1: Jesus at the Temple in Jerusalem Matthew 21 Jesus enters the Temple. The scriptures in Matthew 21 describe the actions and behavior of Jesus upon entering the Temple in Jerusalem in which Jesus disrupts the activities of money changers. Matthew 26 Roman soldiers are describe and offering 30 pieces of silver to anyone who can identify Jesus Ch 2: The Crucifixion of Jesus Mark 15 The centurion says, "Surely this man was the Son of God!" John 19 Jesus calls on his disciple, John, to care for Mary, the mother of Jesus. Joseph of Arimathea asks for the body of Jesus for burial. Pilate expresses surprise that Jesus has died so quickly. The centurion confirms that Jesus is dead. Pilate releases the body of Jesus for burial.
