Dear friends, I am pleased to reach the end of this amazing adventure and Series.
Watching and re editing Raymond J. Schneider research on the Shroud of Turin has led me to my own discovery, a discovery of believing we may think we know it all, until we open our hearts and listen to others, we find others know a lot more, and what we know was very small.
This is an astonishing story, full of twist's and turns, and a heroic adventure going back 2000 years to the ancient histories and mysteries of God/Jesus, His disciples and Holy Bible, where we looked at a treasure which has immense religious, political and historical importance and has uncovered an element of surprise, from carbon dating proving the Shroud was a great hoax,
 |
| to countless and brilliant investigation's by the best experts, researchers and scientist in history, proving the carbon dating of the Shroud, mistaken, notoriously inaccurate and flawed. |
Now with extremely, astonishing scientific papers, evidence and articles confirming and evaluating the scientific, academic and professional work taking us on a roller coaster ride, going right back to where Jesus spent His last hours at His crucifixion death and resurrection.

We Followed Raymond back to a concealed mystery which emerged from its secret hiding places.
And yet there are still secrets not yet discovered, and it all started at Golgotha, by an extremely famous person, from an honourable counsellor, who was a rich man and secret disciple of Jesus who is now the famous Joseph of Arimathaea.

Joseph of Arimathaea became the founder of the greatest mysteries and most priceless treasure's in the world, the burial cloths that covered the body of Jesus, and the GREAT STONE that sealed our King in the rich man's tomb.
Including the popular legend of keeping and being responsible for the Holy Grail, with people still searching, which connect's him to a traditional popular historical story and site, the founder of the earliest Christian church, known as the famous Glastonbury abbey in the UK.

Raymond showed us the overwhelming evidence, where Joseph took the body of Jesus and wrapped it in fine linen and laid it in his own new tomb cut out of rock.
Joseph of Arimathaea proved to be a true Samaritan who assisted and created the most debatable and controversial artefacts known in world history, which many now believe is, The Shroud of Turin and The Sudarium of Oviedo .

We went over sea's, mountains, and terrain, following Ray as he showed us the history of the Shroud and the forensic medical science.
We looked at what many believe is the very face of Jesus, God's actual real perfect blood, the torture of the forty lashes, the scars and pierced body, and the painful puncture wounds from the crown of thorns.

We saw the humiliation Jesus patiently and humbly endured by the Romans, who punched and bruised His swollen cheekbones.
His agony from the blood shed of His pierced hands and feet, that bears silent witness to the horror of the cross.
That bears the spear wound in His side, and yes, the ultimate triumph of the Resurrection of Jesus (Yeshua) meaning Salvation.
God's supernatural love is clearly preserved like a fossil in a time capsule, 'for all humans' to gain faith and have no excuse not to believe and follow Jesus and be saved.
Our kind creator has beautiful, gracefully, elegantly, sufficiently, clearly, preserved and revealed to all believers, the rock solid evidence for those who doubt the Christian faith.

Seek and you will find said Jesus, and when we do we truly find the Christian faith is no blind faith, thanks be to God who has lovingly provided 'real scientific fact's' proving and confirming every single word recorded in the Gospels over 2000 years ago is a matter of actual certainty, in deed, truthful and truly reliable.
The most important time in history, when God Himself became the Lamb of God, who takes away the sins of the world, who so bravely, voluntary and amazingly, humbly gave His life to buy our soul's and grant us eternal life, when we believe and follow, was all recorded supernaturally as a 3 D hologram. All because: God is not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. 2 Peter 3:8 - 9.

Said by a group of 26 scientists, 'could not be reproduced' with the best applications machinery and devices ever developed by scientific knowledge in world history.
Jesus said: unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible. Matthew 19:26.
We followed Ray through his course divided into five sessions; 1) Introduction, 2) Science, 3) History, 4) Sceptics & Images, 5) Integration & Conclusions.
And I have to say, while editing the last part 5, it truly touched my heart, Ray talked about Concept Four, while Ray was at a Russ Breault conference, Russ explained about,
The Proof of Purchase.
