[jesus] how could he do it


And another thing, while we're still on the topic. If I knew, in the back of my mind, that I was going to suffer the gruesome fate related here in graphic anatomical detail [don't follow this link unless you have a strong stomach], then I don't think I could roam about Palestine healing people, eating and drinking sparingly and maintaining my magnanimity.

I think I'd be a deeply depressed person.

He wasn't.

  1. I'll think you'll find that "Palestinians" weren't around 2000 years ago.

  2. No but Palestine was. Don't worry - I share your view of the history of the area.

  3. This is one of the things that troubles me.
    I was having this discussion with a frind recently and got a little emotional.
    I sense I actually envy Christ his WILL to face what he knew would face. There's a part of me that feels if it were possible to acheive what he acheived by going through that, then I would wish I had the guts too.
    But most of almost certainly wouldn't and it sometimes makes me feel worthless by comparison.
