"Is the historicity of Jesus Christ provable? Proving the existence of a figure who lived more than 2000 years ago can be an uphill task, yet he influenced not just the formation of the Christian religion but also some major philosophical thoughts still in use today. Despite being authored by different people, the gospels provide a similar account of Jesus Christ. Should they be viewed as purely religious texts, or do they provide more context? According to the gospels, Jesus is both God and man. Ignoring the religious aspect, many people would assume that Jesus, as a man, would adhere to worldly laws while living as a man in the world. In the Christian religion, Jesus is represented at the end of his life on a cross as the king of the Jews, which raises many questions if he was divine. The Secret Code of the Gospels by Albert Seidel reconstructs the earthly story of Jesus.
The Secret Code of the Gospels by Albert Seidel is an interesting read. This thought-provoking work got me thinking not only about the Christian religion but also about the historicity of other major religions, such as Buddhism. The careful examination of the gospels shows the work is well researched. Albert also explained everything well, which ensured the work was effective in passing on the intended message without alienating anyone. I loved the numerous references, which means this work can be used as a stepping stone to further exploration of the scriptures. The reader will also appreciate the easy-to-understand language, which makes the work accessible to all audiences. This was a very informative read, and I look forward to reading something else by Albert Seidel." — Reviewed by Frank Mutuma for Readers’ Favorite
