Did not say, "resurrected" but the actual word uttered by the angels was "ALIVE!"28. MARY MAGDALENE TESTIFIES —". . . they heard that he was ALIVE, and had been seen by her, they believed not." — (Mark 16.-11):Mary did not vouch for a spook, or ghost or spirit of Jesus but a LIVE Jesus. What they could notbelieve was that the Master was ALIVE!29. DR. PRIMROSE TESTIFIES:That the "water and the blood", when Jesus was lanced on the side, was on account of an upsetin the nervous vessels because of the scourging by staves. Which was a sure sign that Jesus wasALIVE!30. JESUS HAD HIMSELF F<strong>OR</strong>ETOLD THAT HIS MIRACLE WILL BE THE MIRACLE OFJONAH!According to the Book of Jonah, Jonah was ALIVE, when we expected him to be DEAD;similarly when we expect Jesus to be DEAD, he should be ALIVE!These thirty points and many more arguments are fully expounded in the precedingpages of this book. Please read and re-read the arguments and practice them on yourfriends. The pleasure is yours. I pray for your success!CHAPTER 19<strong>CRUCI</strong>FIED <strong>OR</strong> <strong>CRUCI</strong>PLAYED?
LANGUAGE DEFICIENCYEvery word is a frozen picture of what it represents. If we take a word and cogitateon it, we will be able to see or visualise it in our minds. Try — "ship", you will see aship in your mind. "Handbag", you will see a handbag in your mind. "Cigarette", youwill see a cigarette in your mind. But we speak at such a rapid rate that weapprehend words as ideas, thoughts and concepts. Words are the tools wherewith weconvey our messages. The greater the vocabulary, the clearer and easier thecommunication. But wrong words can mar the ideas.THE LANGUAGE CUL-DE-SACThe Arabic language is very rich in conveying spiritual thoughts and concepts, butEnglish is richer in the field of science and technology. Yet this latter language isletting me down. It seems to have no verbs for incompleted or attempted actions, forexample:1. A man is taken to the gallows, the noose is put around his neck, "he kicks thebucket" meaning the rope is pulled for him to die, but fate intervenes and he isreprieved before he expires. Twenty years later the same man dies by drowning. Wewant one verb to explain to us what happened — was the man ''hanged" or whathappened? Not un-hanged. We want just one verb , . .?2. Another person Is taken to the Electric-Chair for electrocution. He is strapped tothe chair. And the switch is put on. A bolt of electricity goes through the man, butthe power fails. The man revives, and before another bolt of electricity is shotthrough him, he is reprieved. A few days later the man dies in a motor-car accident.What was his end? What happened to him on the "Chair"? Was he electrocuted or not?One verb . . . ?3. Josephus, a Jewish historian, records in his book of "Antiquities" about"crucifixions" in which he intervened and as a result the "crucified" men were loweredfrom their crosses. One survived! What had happened to him on the cross? was hecrucified? The one who did not die by crucifixion, but an attempt was made to crucifyhim. Was he crucified? One verb . . . ?<strong>CRUCI</strong>-<strong>FICTION</strong>S GAL<strong>OR</strong>EThe above are hypothetical cases one might say. But we are with history in themaking. See page 36, a reproduction from the "Weekend World", dated August 3,1969. Mr. Pieter van der Bergh, a barman by occupation, was "Crucified" for "kicks!" —just for the thrill of it. In his own words, he simply wanted to prove, "THAT MAN ISMASTER OVER HIS BODY". He was on the cross; he went through the whole process ofthe crucifixion. To out do the three of Golgotha, he had "An 18 inch spike piercinghis thigh" — (picture is reproduced earlier in the book). This barman is still alive andkicking. Was he crucified? One verb . . . ? There is no such verb in English.When the Jews cried repeatedly to Pilate — "Crucify him! Crucify him! — (Luke23:27, John 19:6), they meant KILL him on the cross — by crucifixion. "KILL" him! Notjust "taking him for a ride" on the cross! And, if after all the due ceremony, like that
