This prominent theologian adds his contribution to the authority of Scripture debate An impassioned contribution to the debate about the authority of scripture - how we read the Bible, and how, the author believes, a fundamentalist reading is unsustainable. This book will infuriate many and delight others, and will make a valuable contribution to the debate, which we plan to join with voices from many corners. The book works through a series of Bible passages often cited as 'proof texts', and explores how they can be read, and how they are used.

As Jesus faced his final days before his crucifixion, he offered a prayer (in John 17:23) that all believers in the future could be perfectly one "as God and Christ are one." Yet two thousand years later we see Christians divided by doctrine, denominational structures, political interests and contentions over moral and social values. Our present division seems to indicate that we are in dire need for reflection and deep soul-searching. "Realizing Jesus" strives to be the hoped-for wake-up call and attempts to shed light upon the numerous mysteries and unanswered questions that traditional doctrines have ignored or glossed over. Questions such as: Why was Jesus praying "to let this cup pass" on the night before his crucifixion? Why would Jesus pray to avoid the cross if his only purpose was to die? Why was Jesus only a carpenter in Joseph's shop, when both Joseph and Mary, as well as their relatives, including the parents of John the Baptist, KNEW that Jesus was the prophesied Messiah and King to sit on the throne of David? Why did Jesus' family turn on him and even question his sanity? Why was Jesus still unmarried at the age of 30? Why is John the Baptist thought to be a saint when he never followed Jesus and eventually went his separate way?*If Jesus was only to die on the cross, why did he ask God to forgive his executioners, saying: "they know not what they do?" What did they do? Weren't they supposed to crucify Jesus?"Realizing Jesus" answers these questions and so much more. It will take you beyond the constraints of the doctrinal Jesus and bring you to the realization of so much more about him. It is the Jesus the Bible truly reveals.
