Pardon my interruption here... but I couldn't resist...
Technically Jesus wasn't nailed to a cross or a "T form"... The correct translation is "stake"
Meaning he was Nailed to a Pole... hands over head...
Again sorry for my intrusion... things like this make me twitch... lol
Glad you caught my misnomer/hiccup; my only reference for REAL AND TRUE crucifixion scenearios; is "Sparticus" and Movies especially of the 1960 era with Kirk Douglas starring ARE REAL. Golgotha/Calvary on the other hand; Jesus was crucified on a Merkaba Vehicle, (Star of David) construction, wood; it can activate itself Jesus rose right from the spin of the thing (no need for an internment or messiness that might ensue).

There is actual proof now that he was not crucified as the Christians want to believe...
They found a heel bone of someone who was crucified around that time...
cojs.org...
The nail is through the side of the heel... meaning this person was nailed to a "stake" or pole...
Heels on the sides at the bottom of the pole... Nail went through the side of the Heel just below the ankle...
Hands were over the persons head... Exactly how the bible tells it....
They nailed him to a "stake"... which is a vertical pole.... NOT a cross...

Who arranged for a merkaba vehicle to be used for crucifixion? Wouldn't that not quite fit somehow? Jesus on a merkaba between two thieves on crosses or stakes or whatnot?

This merkaba thing is a recent new age invention, which basically consists of the star of david...
I think hes speaking metaphorically... I mean he must be...

Well... I've always found people that say they've talked to Jesus amusing... but im also usually the first one to debunk them as well...So please make a thread on your conversation with him, and lets see if it holds up to what is written about him...Then we can figure out if its valid or not... unless of course you consider your conversation with Jesus to be more valid then what is written...And keep in mind Im also considering sources outside of the bible to be things written about him...

That is one of the biggest questions in New Testament studies, how much of a connection there is between Paul and Jesus.
Of course we don't have books written by Jesus, but only books written supposedly about him.
The book that I read that got me thinking along these lines (that the Gospels borrowed a lot from what Paul said, and maybe things not preserved today) is Paul and Jesusedit on 6-6-2013 by jmdewey60 because: (no reason given)

I like to think of it like this: I am not God, but WE are. God is not confined to one particular person, he is everyone and everything as a whole. I am only a piece of God, not the whole, as are you and everyone else.
There is no God that is separate from creation, he is creator and creation, the Alpha and Omega, the beginning (creator/cause) and end (creation/effect).
