I Got My Jesus Bones!

Or so an unnamed "documentary" maker is asserting, along with the self proclaimed "investigative reporter" who wrote the book. A lot of bloggers are already commenting (http://kerussocharis.blogspot.com/). I'll leave that to them. The only exception I'll make is to NOT WATCH THE PROGRAM. Not because I'm just a dupe of my shallow beliefs, but because that's the whole point of messers Cameron and etc. They want us to spend our money, enrich them and become true non-believers as a result. People of faith are not concerned about this. We know The Lord Jesus Christ's bones weren't kept in a box in South Jerusalem. There are after all historians from the period and the Jesus story was a well known one at the time. There would be documentation, say from Josephus, that a bunch of deluded followers had missed the fact that Jesus got married, had a boy or was it a girl (ala DV Code), and was buried in a tomb with his mother Mary. All that Christian hogwash about Mary probably dying in Ephesus, Jesus being wrapped in a shroud, other guys with the name Jesus. Well anyway, you get the point. I just hope that what usually happens when this stuff is published, doesn't happen this time. A lot of people in the Church go overboard and end up giving the heretic what he wants, more publicity, more controversy etc, which ends up with more money in their pockets. The anti-Christ, DV Code, Jesus Bones in a box, Last Temptation, Superstar, etc crowd won't stop until Jesus returns and (horrors of horrors) they're staring into the lake of fire thinking "O my god (who I don't believe in); it's all true." We evangelicals have a job; that's to go into all the world in the power of the Holy Spirit and rescue as many as we can from the fire. Check out Kirk Cameron's efforts at http://www.wayofthemaster.com/. Much better than James Cameron and his attempts to lead thousands of people into eternity without a savior. Ever heard of Jim Jones? Following James Cameron is like drinking that purple poison Jones got his followers to drink. If you don't believe in Christ, or are unsure, Just pray this prayer. "Dear Lord; I'm not even sure if you exist, but if you do, would you let me know today that you're there and that you're real?" I have faith that your prayer will be answered if you're truly seeking an answer. In Jesus name.
