Hi Ned,
Thanks for pointing out this article.
I been preaching the message portrayed in this article for 46 years.
I liked the part of the article that talks about His death.
The ideals of mercy, service, poverty, self-sacrifice and martyrdom aren't even respected because he has been turned into a cliche, and this has to be the greatest sin. The Romans (or the Jews if you're Mel Gibson) may have killed Christ, but we Americans dealt Jesus Christ his death stroke.
Jesus is not a free ATM where you can name and claim and get whatever you want.
He is not just one of the good ole boys either.
He is the savior of the world.
He will judge the world and everyone in it on judgment day.
As far as His death it was caused by my sins when He took them upon himself so I could be free and reunited with God the Father.
The means implemented to bring about that moment was the Jews imploring Pilate to crucify Him and Pilate wanting to please the Jews obliged them and carried out the death sentence.
But let no one fool you it was my sins that killed Jesus.
God Bless,
