Chronicling his life and preaching, and his legacy. Was his mother really a virgin? How did he satisfy the lineage required of a claimant to be ‘King of the Jews’? Where was he during the years before he emerged as a preacher? How did he develop his creed and hone his oratory skills? Was he with the Essenes Jewish sect? Were the miracles genuine, or contrived? What was the motive – to attract a believing audience, or a cynical ploy for donations? Were the Disciples just spiritual followers, or was there someone with a wider role – the organiser and dictator? How did they fund the enterprise? How did they live day to day? And why did his brothers disown him during his life, and yet lead the faith onwards after his death?
From an open-minded believer’s perspective. Uses the Gospels and respected historians, specifically Graham Phillips
