“This traveling preacher never graduated from the recognized academies, never accepted political office, never entered religious orders, never joined the military. He never founded a school, never fathered a dynasty, never wrote a book, never led an army, never had an ounce of earthly power. He was butchered as a blasphemer in his thirties yet today he commands more allegiance than any human has or could. Billions call him Lord. Not bad for a kid born in a shed.” - Glen Scrivener’s 321: The Story of God, the World, and You (10Publishing, 2014) [animated presentation].p16
“Wherever Jesus sees faith, he has forgiveness on a hair trigger.” - Glen Scrivener’s 321: The Story of God, the World, and You (10Publishing, 2014) [animated presentation].p19
“Jesus can’t speak of judgment day without putting himself at the center of our cosmic conclusion—he is the Judge. He can’t set eyes on Jerusalem without lamenting the way they’ve treated him for the last millennia. He can’t mention Abraham without saying how terrific it was when they met—2,000 years earlier. . . . He owns divine titles; accepts divine worship; performs divine acts; pronounces divine verdicts; and makes divine oaths. In short, he walks around planet earth like he owns the place.”- Glen Scrivener’s 321: The Story of God, the World, and You (10Publishing, 2014) [animated presentation].p26, 28
