The Chief Cornerstone (pdf)
DownloadOver the years I've listened to everyone from clergy to laymen explain how these Gospel accounts do not agree with each other. When examined closely The Holy Bible is in perfect agreement with itself. Minor errors may exist in the translations of various words and phrases but these can be easily reconciled.
Events at Jesus Tomb (pdf)
DownloadThere has been much debate over the centuries regarding just what Peter and that other disciple saw when they peered into Jesus tomb that Sunday morning.
They had no doubt Jesus had resurrected from the dead.
If we think about those things which occurred at Jesus burial we can then understand what they saw after His resurrection.
Joseph of Arimathaea and Nicodemus wrapped Jesus' body in fine linen with a hundred pounds of a mixture of Myrrh and aloes.
(John 19:38-42)
Myrrh is a tree sap. The fine linen strips were soaked in
the mixture of Myrrh and aloes and then wrapped around Jesus' body.
This quickly dried creating a hard shell around His body.
A shroud was also draped over this.
When Jesus resurrected, His body transfigured into
His incorruptible body which is capable of passing through
material objects without affecting them.
The hard linen shell would have remained intact as Jesus' transfigured body passed through it leaving His image embossed on the shroud.
The Solar Calendar vs Other Calendars
This is a presentation of the Annual Calendar I believe The LORD issued in
Exodus 12:1-2; 13:4
As with other calendars the Solar calendar can be arranged day by day and month by month but here it is represented by a pie chart. The first day of the year is 1 Abib which is the Spring Equinox.

NOTE:
The scripture I reference at jacobspillar.org is taken from
the King James Bible 1611 Authorized Version.
In order to make reading the scripture a little easier I may convert a few of
the archaic English words to modern English
(wast = was, knowest = know, thou = you, hast = have, ...).
