Salt & Light: The Complete Jesus
History, Biography, Christian
This book is a definitive and complete inquiry into the authentic Jesus. This Jesus is based on rational thinking, the simplest conjectures, and the best available sources of information. This project’s building blocks are ideas derived from the critical method of inquiry, often inspired by academic sources. The critical method is concerned with avoiding, in the case of religious writings, religious doctrine and human bias by applying a non-sectarian, reason-based approach to arrive at reasonable conclusions. This work is intended to be of interest to all people of any and no religious background. I welcome both the New Testament academic and the person on the street who has never had exposure to Jesus in any form. I assume no prior knowledge of the sources about Jesus and no special training, just an open mind and common sense. |
