Partners in the Crime

Normally, I do not share an article that I have written myself on this very same blog; however, today for some odd reason I find it important do so. The article I speak of is titled: The Sudarium of Oviedo and The Shroud of Turin. I wrote it back on Sunday, September 19, 2010, and it was basically on archeological apologetics dealing with both of the relevant artifacts. I was recently watching a portion of the CNN series Finding Jesus about The Shroud of Turin, and towards the end of the program they brought up The Sudarium of Oviedo and how the blood stains match on both cloths when overlapped. For some reason, despite the contrary arguments, many people still believe there is authenticity just as I do also believe. Ironically, I have Asturian, Galician, and Sephardic lineage, and although I have never bothered to research it, who knows if my very own ancestors may have been actively involved in the preservation of these artifacts at one point in history. Who knows what all is transmitted by them in our DNA’s. Of course, that is not important right now. What is important is that we all get more informed on the significance of these two cloths with relevance to the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ if indeed they are both authentic. Anyhow, I hope you enjoy reading the article, and you can use the search engine I provide at the top left hand corner to find it, but the link is provided below to make it easier. Blessings!
