I was wondering if you ever thought of changing the structure of your
website? Its very well written; I love what youve got
to say. But maybe you could a little more in the way of content so people could connect with it better.
Youve got an awful lot of text for only having 1 or 2 images.

Maybe you could space it out better?

Jesus was born in 100 BCE and died in 67 BCE under Queen Salome and the Pharisees.

Jesus was aka the Teacher of Righteousness of the Dead Sea Scrolls.
Jesus, uniquely foresaw the coming of the “End Times ” of the Age of Aries and the coming New Age, the Age of Pisces.

Jesus learned of this during his exile in Alexandria Egypt form 88 BCE to 76 BCE.
His Apocalyptic Message seemed to associate him with the expected coming of the Messiah.

For someone to say that Luke was talking about Christmas is absurd .Christmas is man made, no one knows when Christ was born and the Bible does not tell us to celebrate his birth . Thank you your friend Jane

I’ve been reading these magazines for more than twenty years, I don’t recall when Prof. Wetherington was first published in them but he has long since been my favorite columnist, among many I do like. However, this is absolutely the first time that I think he entirely missed the boat and ended up all wet. The analysis of two witnesses in Luke I think is spot on, but the question of Mary, “as successfully making the spiritual journey into the family of faith” etc., is flabbergastingly distracting. There is no way we can read Mary as not accepting of the message of the angel, there is no way of reading Luke where Mary requires some sort of conversion for salvation. Yes we can imagine a Mary that doesn’t understand the implications of her son being the Messiah, but to pretend she didn’t know he was the messiah is simply badly reading Luke.
