The Crucified Man and His Book Remains!
Jesus was Crucified, and at times His Book is Burned,
But Word of Truth existing in both will Eternally be the Same!

Matthew 24:35 – Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not
pass away.
John 1:1-4 – In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. [2] The same was in the beginning with God.
[3] All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.
[4] In him was life; and the life was the light of men.
Revelation 19:13-16 – And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.
[14] And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean. [15] And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God. [16] And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.
Begin Jerusalem Post Excerpt
Orthodox youth burn New Testaments
Associated Press, THE JERUSALEM POST
May 20, 2008
Orthodox Jews set fire to hundreds of copies of the New Testament in a religious Israeli town.
Or Yehuda Deputy Mayor Uzi Aharon said missionaries recently entered a neighborhood in the predominantly religious town of 34,000 in central Israel, distributing hundreds of New Testaments and missionary material.
After receiving compl aints, Ah
aron said, he got into a loudspeaker car last Thursday and drove through the neighborhood, urging people to turn over the material to Jewish religious students who went door to door to collect it.
The books were dumped into a pile
and set afire in a lot near a synagogue, he said.
The Israeli Maariv daily reported Tuesday that hundreds of Jewish religious school students took part in the book-burning. But Aharon told The Associated Press that only a few students were present, and that he was not there when the books were torched. Not all of the New Testaments that were collected were burned, but hundreds were, he said.
He said he regretted the burning of the books, but called it a “commandment” to burn materials that urge Jews to convert.
“I certainly don’t denounce the burning of the booklets,” he said. “I denounce those who distributed the booklets.”
Calev Myers, an attorney who represents Messianic Jews, or Jews who accept Jesus as their savior, demanded in an interview with Army Radio that all those involved be put on trial. He estimated there were 10,000 Messianic Jews, who are also known as Jews for Jesus, in Israel.
Police had no immediate comment.
Israeli authorities and Orthodox Jews frown on missi
onary activity aimed at Jews, though in most cases it is not illegal.
