See the full gallery. Title: The Passover Plot Dramatization of the controversial best-seller that posits an alternate version of the birth of Christianity. In this version, Jesus planned for His crucifixion by taking a drug that would simulate death. After His unconscious body was placed in the tomb, a religious sect known as the Zealots would secretly steal Christ's body from the tomb, then spread the rumor that He had risen, thus fulfilling Biblical prophecy. Written by Mike Konczewski. This flashy adaptation of a controversial book on the true nature of Jesus Christ should have been "The Da Vinci Code" of its day; unfortunately, its sheer rarity the copy I acquired suffered from 'combing' issues for the film's entire duration has, instead, all but ensured that it forgotten over the years! Still, its theme is certainly fascinating — theorizing that Christ was not really the Son of God but merely a man who was deluded into thinking himself the savior of his people. Incidentally, this is partly a Jewish production, therefore the characters adopt their Hebrew pronunciation — so that Jesus becomes Yeshua, John The Baptist Yohanan, Judas Iscariot is now Judah and Bartholomew gets saddled with the amusing name of Bar Talmi! Zalman King of all people — in view of his later association with softcore efforts in both Film and TV! The Passover Plot and Scott Wilson Judas. The latter, however, gets as much of a radical make-over as Christ himself: part of a warring rabble led presumably by Barabbas, though he is never actually namedJudas is asked to join Jesus' peace-mongering throng in order to bring the two parties together! However, Jesus also has a back-up plan: ordering Judas to betray him! Looking for something to watch? Choose an adventure below and discover your next favorite movie or TV show.

Nonetheless, the disciples mistook others as Christ some days later and believed he had risen from the dead Schonfield, Apart from these basic truths there is no historic Christianity 1 Cor. Thus, it is incumbent on the evangelical apologist to refute the Passover Plot hypothesis. At least three basic dimensions of traditional apologetics are called in question by this alleged plot: the character of Christ, the supernatural nature of messianic predictions, and the resurrection of Christ. Each will be addressed in order. The Character The Passover Plot Christ. He intended to deceive his closest disciples into believing he was the Messiah when he was The Passover Plot. But this The Passover Plot is contrary to the character of Christ known from the Gospel records, which have been demonstrated to be reliable. The Jesus of the Gospels is the perfect exemplar of honesty and integrity. The Nature of Supernatural Prophecy. And in the case of Christ there are many reasons that he could not have manipulated events to make it look like he fulfilled all the predictions about the Old Testament Messiah. First of all, this was contrary to his honest character as noted above. It assumes he was one of the greatest deceivers of all time. It presupposes that he was not even a good person, to say nothing of the perfect man the Gospels affirm him to be. There are several lines of evidence that combine to demonstrate that this is a completely implausible thesis. Second, there is no way Jesus could have controlled many events necessary for the fulfillment of Old The Passover Plot prophecies about the Messiah. For example, he had no control over where he would be born Mic. Indeed even Schonfield admits that the The Passover Plot failed The Passover Plot the Romans actually pierced Christ. In short, it takes a bigger miracle to believe the Passover Plot than to accept these prophecies as supernatural. The Resurrection of Christ. The Passover Plot offers an implausible scenario as an alternative to the resurrection of Christ. This is true for many reasons. First, it is contrary to the Gospel records, which are demonstrably reliable, having been written by eyewitnesses and contemporaries of the events.

  • False Ideas About Jesus Christ (Part Two) by Wayne Jackson
    January 19, 2014 False Ideas About Jesus Christ (part two) By Wayne Jackson Without question, Jesus of Nazareth is the most dominating figure in human history. Who was he? Alternatively, in the words of the Teacher himself in a question to the leaders of the Jewish community, “What do you think of the Christ?” Every intellectually reflective person must come to grips with this engaging question. The available data regarding the identity of Jesus are definitive. He is the Christ, the Son of God (John 20:30-31). Regrettably, however, there are numerous erroneous opinions regarding him in the marketplace of religious ideas. Same Person As The Father Those who are affiliated with the United Pentecostal Church contend that “Jesus” is merely the earthly name of God, the Father. They allege there is but one person who is God, but that “God” is represented in three manifestations — Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. The Scripture, however, reveals a clear distinction between the Father and the Son, and between the Son and the Holy Spirit. The Jews had never seen the father nor heard his voice (John 1:18; 5:37), but they had both seen and heard Christ. Hence, Christ was not the same as the Father. The person who abides in the Lord’s doctrine has both the Father and the Son (2 John 9) — both implies a plurality. One could sin against Christ and be forgiven, but not the Spirit (Matthew 12:32). Therefore, Christ and the Spirit were not the same person. This topic is discussed more fully in the author’s tract, The Biblical Doctrine Of The Godhead (1994).

  • Was Jesus Really Raised from the Dead?
    Was Jesus really raised from the dead? The evidence that Jesus is a real, historical figure is so overwhelming that very few skeptics try to say Jesus never existed. Still, since Jesus could not have been raised from the dead unless He was an actual historical figure, it seems necessary to briefly discuss whether or not Jesus is a fictional character (some skeptics have likened Him to Santa Claus). The gospels, which are highly regarded historical documents, say that Jesus lived, but they are by no means the only source. Proof for Jesus being a real person is found in the writings of Josephus, a first century Jewish historian who said: “He convened a meeting of the Sanhedrin and brought before them a man named James, the brother of Jesus, who was called the Christ, and certain others. He accused them of having transgressed the law and delivered them up to be stoned” (Josephus, The Antiquities 20:200). This historical reference not only proves that Jesus lived, it is especially noteworthy because Jesus and Josephus were so different. Jesus encouraged people to pay taxes and encouraged people to submit to the government. Josephus was mainly interested in the Jews’ struggle against Rome and political matters (his philosophy was the very opposite of Jesus’ teaching). In spite of these two very different philosophies, Josephus does refer to Jesus and says people “called” Him the “Christ.” Another reference to Jesus is found in the writings of Tacitus, a premier first century Roman historian. Tacitus said, “Nero fastened the guilt and inflicted the most exquisite tortures on a class hated for their abominations, called Christians by the populace.

And their word will eat as doth a canker: of whom is Hymenaeus and Philetus; Who concerning the truth have erred, saying that the resurrection is past already; and overthrow the faith of some” (2 Tim.

  • Chronology of Jesus' Life
    The Chronology of Jesus’ Life A Detailed and Dated Timeline of the Life and Ministry of Jesus Christ ABSTRACT: This chronology uses a framework of nine signs in the heavens to help date the birth, ministry, death, and resurrection of Jesus. The Passover/Exodus event forms a typology for Jesus’ life.1 It continues to sequence and date precisely the events of Jesus’ life. Understanding the phrase in the second-first Sabbath (Luke 6:1 Douay), revealed that Jesus’ public ministry was two years in duration. It also revealed that Jesus did many Passover related actions and teachings, at times and places other than at Passover in Jerusalem. Instead, He did them around Passover in the second month and around the solar Passover. Much as Dr. Jaubert proposed the solar Passover as the date for the Last Supper. The gospel of Matthew was determined to be in sequential chronological order. These insights helped link the vast majority of Jesus’ ministry to the few weeks of these Passover events. It was further revealed that there were a few similar events that occurred a month before Passover in the month of Adar. The order and character of the events strengthen and even forces the dates of Jesus’ actions and teaching. The Exodus and first Passover form the plot for Jesus’ life. Accurately chronicling Jesus’ entire ministry gives a clearer picture and more insight into Jesus and God’s plan, work, and ways. This Passover order and structure can aid one to remember the details and order of the events of Jesus’ ministry.

From The Historical Jesus: Ancient Evidence for the Life of Christ, College Press Publishing, 1996. Chapter IV Reinterpretations of the Historical Jesus In addition to the major historical approaches presented in the last chapter, many have attempted to write more-or-less popular lives of Jesus. These authors often advocate unorthodox interpretations: Jesus never died on the cross; he was connected with the Qumran community; someone else changed his message to fit their own desires; he traveled to various parts of the word during the so called "silent years" or even after the crucifixion. While such works are given virtually no attention by careful scholars, these attempts are sometimes very popular with those who are unfamiliar with the data behind such questions. Many are bothered by nonfactual or illogical presentations, but are not quite able to locate the problems involved. This is the major reason that these approaches are included in this book. We will investigate several of the most popular recent attempts to present unorthodox pictures of Jesus' life.

  • Jesus in the Gospel of John Today’S Message: the All-Surpassing Worth of Christ
    : Jesus in the Gospel of John Today’s message: The All-Surpassing Worth of Christ Context: The Passover Plot John 11:45-57 (ESV) 45 Many of the Jews therefore, who had come with Mary and had seen what he did, believed in him, 46 but some of them went to the Pharisees and told them what Jesus had done. 47 So the chief priests and the Pharisees gathered the council and said, “What are we to do? For this man performs many signs. 48 If we let him go on like this, everyone will believe in him, and the Romans will come and take away both our place and our nation.” 49 But one of them, Caiaphas, who was high priest that year, said to them, “You know nothing at all. 50 Nor do you understand that it is better for you that one man should die for the people, not that the whole nation should perish.” 51 He did not say this of his own accord, but being high priest that year he prophesied that Jesus would die for the nation, 52 and not for the nation only, but also to gather into one the children of God who are scattered abroad. 53 So from that day on they made plans to put him to death. 54 Jesus therefore no longer walked openly among the Jews, but went from there to the region near the wilderness, to a town called Ephraim, and there he stayed with the disciples. 55 Now the Passover of the Jews was at hand, and many went up from the country to Jerusalem before the Passover to purify themselves.

  • Netscape: at Judas' Feet
    AT JUDAS' FEET by David H. Roper As we look at this passage in John 13, it is important that we understand the situation the Lord faced as he did these things and uttered these words to his disciples in the Upper Room. This was his darkest hour. Less than twenty-four hours later, he went to the cross. Inside, the disciples are meeting with the Lord, and outside there is confusion and hostility. The Passover plot is under way. The men who have been plotting Jesus' death for some time are now ready to act. Things are no better within the Upper Room. We know from reading the other Gospel accounts that the disciples were arguing and fighting among themselves, trying to determine who was the greatest among them and who would have honor in the kingdom, when the Lord came into his own. Of course, Judas himself was also in the Upper Room. This gives you some idea of the climate in which the following things took place. It is interesting to see the Lord's actions through all of these events, and to note his poise, the quietness of his heart. Jesus has a resource, and it is very obvious that he does. There are times when he is troubled. John says of him -- and once he said of himself -- that he was troubled in his heart. This is the same term that Jesus uses later when he says to the disciples, "Don't let your hearts be troubled," {cf, John 14:1}. It is descriptive of an emotional state of agitation.
