Good Friday & The Face of Jesus
It's Good Friday...
(in case you didn't know that)
Matthew 27:50-53
And when Jesus had cried out again in a loud voice, he gave up his spirit. At that moment the curtain of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom. The earth shook and the rocks split. The tombs broke open and the bodies of many holy people who had died were raised to life. They came out of the tombs, and after Jesus' resurrection they went into the holy city and appeared to many people.
On this Good Friday morning I awoke to this sunrise.
What a perfect sunrise for a day like today. Today is the day that Jesus himself gave his life so that whom so ever believed in him shall not parish but have eternal life with him in Heaven! You could not ask for a better gift!
Also, I wanted to bring to your attention this amazing documentary that will be airing tomorrow evening [8/7CST] on the History Channel. It's called, The Face of Jesus. Here is a little bit about the show as taken from History Channel.com.
Join HISTORY in this two-hour television event, as the Shroud of Turin is put on public display for the first time in 10 years. New data reveals more than just a flat image embedded in the ancient cloth, but an astonishing, three-dimensional, sculpture-like figure.
Using the principles of physics, cutting-edge digital technology, and the revolutionary CGI process pioneered in Stealing Lincoln's Body, HISTORY brings that image to life, unveiling the most accurate representation ever seen of what many believe to be Jesus Christ. Don't miss this startling, life-like composite of what could be the most accurate depiction of Jesus Christ ever formed, as HISTORY unlocks the Shroud of Turin's greatest mysteries.
And a sneak peek at one of the photos you will see on the show.
The show goes into more details of the skills and years it took to create these images. I would encourage you to watch it. If you do, I would love to have your opinions on it.
And if you want my 2 cents on it here it is:
Jesus lived in a time where people saw his face. I do not think that he would mind if we were to see it again. As a matter of fact, it might just be what people need in this era of time.

I am watching the show tomorrow. I saw a preview of it and it looked so interesting! I agree, I do not think it would hurt to see the face of Jesus again. I think we need to be reminded of why we are here. We are all imperfect people and need to remember Him and all He did for us! Even if this is not His true face I still think it will be interesting. Love the post!
I thiink that show looks so interesting already! I haven't seen any previews for it at all, but I'll be sure to check it out!! :)
I only caught the last 45 min. I did record it on the later time slot, so I'll get to watch the entire show.
