A naked man on a cross?

Today the world remembers that Jesus died on the cross. Are you remembering or asking yourself, "So what does this naked man on a cross have to do with me?" I am a follower of Jesus but I can see how many people could ask that question. Sacrifice, shedding of blood, sin, being born again, it can be confusing and strange but if there is nothing to it, then why has the world been talking about it for over 2,000 years? Have you ever asked yourself that question?


I long for everyone to take just a few hours out of their life to look at the Bible and what it has to say about this naked man on a cross named Jesus. Make an educated decision, don't just reject something that seems strange and confusing. PLEASE don't judge Jesus based on Christians and organized religion, both of which are often flawed.


The Bible has some very profound things to say about life and death. The reality is you are going to die, we all are. So before you do please consider reading a book called The Stranger on the Road to Emmaus. You may walk away saying, "No thanks" or you may believe. I guarantee you will understand Christians better and why we are always talking about Jesus.
