Frontline and Jesus

I generally like PBS’s Frontline but I found myself amazed and disconcerted by the portion of their show on Jesus that aired this week. The show appeared to give exclusive weight to the idea that Jesus’ deity was a myth created ex post facto to cope with the power of the Roman empire.

I understand why they would want to find excuses for Jesus not being God, not being divine, not being resurrected. It just seemed like finding a single bone in the sand and telling everyone it was a chicken bone not a dragon’s tail. Of course, it might be a chicken’s bone, but what if the dragon was real? What if archeology and historically faulty human empiricism is not enough?

Frontline could not find a couple of believers with credible Phds? If they couldn’t then I would not trust them to unearth the full scoop on that guy on the cross…

That Guy on the Cross

Funny about him. The title of the show was From Jesus to Christ
Jesus is the name Yeshua which means God saves and Christ means Anointed King

God saves is enough. Jesus is enough. That He is also the Anointed One is the icing on the cake.
A very important cake.
Too good to miss
