Few will dispute that a man named Jesus lived 2,000 years ago and that He was a great teacher who impacted the world from His time onward. But He has always been a controversial figure. He made a claim that was breathtaking in its audacity—that He was the very Son of God, the long-prophesied Messiah! Yet the religious authorities in Jerusalem rejected Him, hated Him and eventually succeeded in having Him put to death. Likewise, the local Roman civil authorities also saw Him as a threat and became complicit in His execution. The religions of His day, both Judaism and paganism, opposed the growth of His teachings and used unlawful and violent means to try to destroy the Church He founded. The government of Rome also came to vigorously persecute the followers of this Jewish teacher from Galilee. Today Jesus continues to be a controversial figure who continues to arouse passions. Discover the true, fascinating story that so few understand—the story of the greatest Man who ever lived and His little-understood message!
