WARNING: This is not a devotional. It is a forensic investigation into the biblical Jesus. If you are looking for a book to confirm your faith, comfort your spirit, or explain away the Bible's difficult passages, do not buy this book. But if you have ever read the Gospels and felt a nagging sense that something doesn't add up, that the message of "Love your enemies" contradicts the threat of "eternal torture," then you are ready for The Unauthorized Jesus. Welcome to the investigation the Church has spent 2,000 years trying to prevent. For centuries, we have been told to read the Bible through the lens of tradition. We are taught to ignore the contradictions, excuse the cruelty, and worship the messenger. What happens when we stop making excuses? Author Richard L Haight applies a forensic lens to the New Testament, stripping away the theology to conduct a psychological profile of the character of Jesus. He treats the text not as a holy relic, but as evidence. In this unflinching analysis, you will discover: The Dark Side: Why the figure in the Gospels often displays the exact opposite of the love he preaches-demanding worship, seeking glory, and mirroring the very behaviors he condemns in others.The Trap: How the most beautiful teachings in the Bible were weaponized to create a system of psychological dependency rather than spiritual liberation.The Hidden Teachings: Buried beneath the dogma are teachings so radical and liberating that they had to be obscured by the institution that bears his name.The Final Twist: A forensic discovery within the text itself that connects the beginning of the Bible to the end in a way that changes everything you thought you knew about the story.This is a rescue mission to find the truth buried by 2000 years of tradition. It reads like a detective story that unfolds with the pulse of a thriller, connecting the dots from the Garden of Eden to the cross, and finally to the unending geopolitical crises of the Middle East. The Jesus we have been told about is a myth, but the truth you uncover through this forensic investigation of the Bible might just set you free.
