CNN just finished airing an hour long special titled “Who is Jesus?”.  All in all, it was a fantastic portrayal of many truths, and I do hope they have an encore presentation.  Many names we know were interviewed: Bishop NT Wright, Dr Amy Levine, and Bart Ehrman, among others.  It presented Jesus in an apocalyptic light as a Messiah claimant, with Ehrman, of all people, saying that his resurrection vindicates his Gospel message.  They share that the Kingdom message was not a one-off, unusual topic.  It was a commonly preached topic, and one understood within Judaism at the time.  Surely, to some of a tight Orthodox faith this message from the media might be hard to hear.  However, from a scholarly perspective, and a perspective that we here hold to, it is right on the money.

May we all celebrate, tounge in cheek, the “liberal” media for putting the true Christ back into Christmas.  Enjoy your holidays!
