5.0 out of 5 stars Most scientific evidence that I have ever seen, December 9, 2004

By	Charles A. Defazio (OCEANSIDE, CA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: The Turin Shroud: Unshrouding the Mystery (Hardcover)

This book is absolutely outstanding. Any atheist, agnostic, skeptic, or uncertain person will have their eyes opened concerning Jesus of Nazareth when they read this book from cover to cover. There is no preaching at all in this book. There are no prayers in it to try to get the reader to accept Christ. It is 100% based on science and history and is loaded with pictures. Whenever I am tempted to doubt my Christianity, all I need to do is begin re-reading this detail-oriented presentation of facts and my doubts or unbelief goes away. The evidence is overwhelmingly conclusive that the Shroud of Turin is genuine. One can deduce (this is my inference, not necessarily the author's viewpoint) that the Shroud image has appeared on the cloth by a supernatural process, such as the literal Resurrection of Jesus from the dead. I have used this book to share the truth of Jesus with my associates and family. For the scientist it is especially appealing.

4.0 out of 5 stars The possible Shroud story, June 16, 2009

By	Pietro Laurenzi (Italy) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This book gives a really intriguing hypothesis about the Shroud missing centuries.
The author is a believer, but the arguments are all very solid.

5.0 out of 5 stars Christ was Here and Christ will come back to Reign. , February 9, 2006

A Kid's Review

This review is from: The Turin Shroud: Unshrouding the Mystery (Hardcover)

The shroud of turin (no caps for shroud of turin)is proof that Jesus Christ was here back then. But as of right now, He is in the Heavens.
The important message of the book, on this topic (on the shroud)is that the He (Jesus Christ)came to save us in order for us to have Eternal salvation. People like to exaggerate or even show off by saying, "the shroud of turin" but what is more important for one is the Person who was wrapped in it (Jesus Christ)and not the cloth itself. The cloth will not take you to heaven but the God Christ will. Christ is Alive and He is in Heaven....we will have new bodies in this new world that Jesus Christ will establish Himself, but for that to happen we must be good and we must be in the book of Life in order to see this new world He will create. i also recommend you get a Bible ESV and read the word of GOD Christ. the shroud can be compared to this example: a person you meet who is very nice but who wore a polo shirt, but when he is gone, the shirt stays behind, but seeing that shirt will remind you of that loving person you always dealt with. You want him back(that person in your life) because he was so loving, caring, unique, and he was the only one who understood you-always and forever.
