    “he Was Tortured By The Romans” Series

    Contributed by Dave Mcfadden on Apr 20, 2015
     | 5,402 views

    The Romans tortured Jesus out of ignorance. But is that a justifiable excuse?

    It’s interesting to contrast how the suffering of Jesus is portrayed. There are depictions that are rated PG. There’s hardly any blood; and Jesus looks more annoyed than in pain. There’s a heavenly glow around His head, as He gazes into heaven. Then there are depictions that more ...read more

    Jesus was not out to reform Judaism but to transform Judaism into something new. He was not out to give life to old form but to give life to a new form, a new way to God.

Jesus had several powerful experiences, including his Transfiguration, which we heard about in Mark 9:2-9. Transfiguration is a ...read more
