Free The God Jesus Knew: And Christianity Forgot Ebooks Online
Have you ever felt condemned by Christianity? Have you ever felt disconnected from Christianity’s God? Have you ever felt terrified that a fiery and eternal hell awaits you if you don’t “believe the right thing”? If you have ever felt that you have nothing in common with the early Israelites, a tribal people who slaughtered millions of animals in order to “earn” God’s forgiveness, this book is for you. If you have ever felt that the Spirit that whispers to your heart is more loving than the spirit that you see portrayed in your church, this book is for you. If you have ever felt that there has to be more to spirituality than saying “the sinner’s prayer” and regular church attendance, this book is for you. If you are attracted to the message of Jesus and don’t see the loving simplicity of his teaching reflected in the church that you are going to, then perhaps what your church is preaching is not what you are seeking. Perhaps what you are really looking for is an introduction to the God that Jesus knew.(This book has the same content as "The God Yeshua Knew", but refers to "Jesus" instead of "Yeshua".)

There are books that rock your world and, once or twice in a lifetime, there are books that turn your world completely and irretrievably upside down. 'The God Jesus Knew' is a life-changing, pivotal book for the times we live in today. It is a scholarly but very readable book, written with humor and humanity.I came to Christianity through being involved in a serious car accident. As blood flowed from my wounds, I began the journey of accepting the One who history told me willingly allowed Himself to be sacrificed for me. Prior to that I was a bit turned off by Christianity. As a vegetarian and animal-lover, I found the whole sacrificial, washed in the blood stuff off-putting and distasteful. I remember a letter to a vegetarian magazine that included a photo of a butcher's van outside a vicarage. The local butcher was delivering meat to the vicar. The van displayed the hung corpses of pigs and cows. The letter writer - not a Christian - said he never would be ... he had expected more compassion from the church that allegedly preached love, compassion, and peace. He had a good point.I learned, over the years, to keep my hurt and my opinions to myself. In the UK, where I am from, between 5 and 10% of the population is vegetarian or vegan. Caterers told me that they usually cater to 10% vegetarian/vegan. The church is the same but they are generally the quiet ones, the ones who don't talk about their compassionate beliefs because they go so against the grain. I met a Jewish vegetarian who felt the same. We are treated as somehow lacking and unenlightened - oh the irony!I wasn't expecting anything that fit in with those beliefs when I picked up this spiritual book. But I am on a journey of discovery and the book jumped off the virtual shelves at me.
