WHY DIDN'T HE WRITE DOWN ANYTHING?
THE QUEST FOR THE HISTORICAL JESUS!!
ESSAYS BY D.G. BESHORE
INTRODUCTION
This is an exciting time to be investigating the historical Jesus. Why is
the historical Jesus different than the one we grew up with? Well, that question goes back
to how you were taught and by whom and in what congregation. I have attended several
churches over my lifetime (RLDS, First Christian, Baptist, Catholic) and wondered why
there weren't straight answers to who Jesus was and what could he ever do for me. The last
question is....why didn't he write something? This single question has led me down a path
of truth that I could not have really expected 7 years ago. I have been to Israel, spoken
in churches of my miraculous recovery and salvation and have baptized others in the name
of the Lord. I am a Promise Keeper and have attended four conventions in the last
four years. I sit down and tell others who I think God and Jesus are.
The quest continues, as I became a born-again Christian on 9 Feb 92, and
the following documents are based on my research and Judeo-Christian and world religion
studies. They were part of my studies and graduation at Cal Lutheran University - Thousand
Oaks, CA. I hope you enjoy them and do not feel threatened or provoked - stimulated yes. I
do hope you think about who Jesus was and who he now is. My quest started with the three
questions on the title page of this page. He has taught me so much through the Good Book
and through others. Keep your hearts clean and pure and he will show you the way...come I
will show you.
