    About this ebook

    The aim of this book is narrowly focused on answering one question: why was Jesus Christ executed? One of its mantras draws a distinction between an emotional truth and a rational idea. In emotional terms, every traditional Christian feels that Jesus Christ was innocent. However, in rational terms Jesus Christ was arrested, tried, convicted, and executed. There had to be a reason for that. It couldn't have been merely a charge of blasphemy.

    Popular discussion is replete with warnings of the daunting challenges a modern world must face and the dire consequences of failing to meet them. Climate change,political and economic instability as well as ongoing armed confl icts all point to a need for a fundamental shift in human perception. The word apocalypse means'revelation' or 'the lifting of the veil.' That revelation must be the reason for the crucifi xion of Jesus Christ. What else could it be?
