The Shroud of Turin ?
My  sheep  hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me
                                                        
                                    Gospel of John  10 : 27
...I  am writing  this  in concern for all those who
                                    diligently  seek
the truth 
                                    concerning  the  Shroud  of  Turin..."NO"  I  do  "NOT"
believe   that  the  Shroud  of  Turin 
                                    conceals  the  image  of
Jesus 
                                    Christ...Yes, our  LORD  was  buried  with  some sort
of  a  cloth  but  it  definitely   wasn't   the Shroud of Turin...

...First  of  all  let's  see  who  actually 
                                    OWNS  the  Shroud
of 
                                    Turin  and  what  their "AGENDA"  is...The  Roman  Catholic
Church  owns  the  Shroud which is housed in  a
                                    Catholic Church
in 
                                    Italy  and  "EVEN"  the  Vatican has  "NOT"  officially
claimed  that  it  is  genuine  in  any 
                                    way,  remember  we
are 
                                    talking  about  the  same  religious  institution  who
also  CLAIMS  to  have  other  "biblical 
                                    Relics"  including
the 
                                    very  bones  of  the  Apostle  Peter  housed  in  the
Vatican  under  an  Altar !!!

...Every  true  Child  of  thee  Living 
                                    GOD   should  study
the 
                                    scriptures  before  jumping  on  any  bandwagon  that
claims  to  have  2000  year  old  holy  relics...Most  importantly
of  ALL  Jesus  is  more  concerned  
                                    that  we  obey  his
WORD 
                                    than   of  how  we  may  physically  perceive  him,
GOD  forbade  the  Jews  on  "MANY" 
                                    ocassions  against
following 
                                    the  ways  of  the  Pagans  and  their  worshiping
of  graven  images, "IF"  GOD  wanted 
                                    the  world  to
see 
                                    the  Physical  face  of  Jesus  Christ  HE  would  have
done  as  the  Roman  Ceasars  and  others 
                                    had  done
before 
                                    Jesus, he would have made   sure  that  someone
sculptured  a  statue or bust  of  thee Christ
after all  we  know  how  many  of  the  Roman  Ceasars
and  even  some  Pharaos  physically  looked 
                                    like  because
of 
                                    all  the  graven  images  that  were  made  of  them, NO
GOD  did  NOT  made  a  mistake  and 
                                    therefore  the
Shroud 
                                    of  Turin  is  "NOT"  the  image  of  Jesus  Christ...

...The  Vatican  has  for  over  1500+ years 
                                    been  trying  to
Legitimize 
                                    itself  as  the  true  Church  and  they  use  the
"we  got  the  holy  relics"  trick 
                                    to  deceive  the  biblical
illiterate  concerning  their   ways,  if  you  really  want 
                                    to
WORSHIP 
                                    Jesus   the  Bible  says  that  you  don't  need  an
image  of  him  to  do  so, in fact 
                                    the  Holy  Scriptures  tells
us  the  opposite, GOD  is  Spirit  and  those  who  worship
GOD  must  do  so  in  Spirit  and 
                                    in  Truth  !!!

...The  Book  of  Revelation   forewarns 
                                    us  that  in  the
future  
                                    an  Image  will   so  marvel  the  world  that  it  will
literally come to life and those who DON'T  worship  the
Image  will  be  put  to  Death  -Book
                                    of Revelation 13 : 15

...I  know  that  we  are  all  curious 
                                    about  how  the  real
Jesus 
                                    Christ  may  have  physically  looked  like, but  that
won't  save  anyone's  soul,  what  does 
                                    save  is  OBEYING
the 
                                    Written  Word  of  GOD  found  in  the  Bible...
______________________________________________
...True  Christianity  has   ENDURED  this  far  without  the
need   of  a  Shroud  of  Turin, True 
                                    Christians  are
LED 
                                    by  the  WORD  of  GOD  and  not  by  "Signs & 
Wonders"

...The  "Just  Shall Live  by  Faith"  and  "NOT" 
                                    by the sight
of 
                                    "any"  engravened  image... BORN  AGAIN  believers 
should  "NOT"  allow  themselves  to 
                                    be  deceived  by
half-truth's 
                                    but  by  the  TRUTH  which  is  WRITTEN
it  is  sad  to  see  that  various  teachers  of  Bible 
                                    Prophecy
are 
                                    trying  to   give  credibility  to  the  Shroud  of
Turin, shame  on  them !!!   It  is 
                                    a  fact  that  the
Vatican 
                                    has  given  the  green  light  for  various
Roman  catholic  orders  to  give : veneration, adoration and
Worship  to  such  "IMAGE"  in 
                                    contrast  Jesus
himself 
                                    told  us  that  his  true  followers  are  those  who
"HEAR  HIS  VOICE"  and  "NOT" 
                                    those  who  play  lip
service 
                                    and  allow   DECEPTION   to  lead  them  Astray*

...In  Mark  12 : 16  we  find  that 
                                    the  IMAGE  of  the
Roman 
                                    Caesar  was  very  common  in  the  circulating
coins  of  those  days, had  GOD  wanted  all  to
worship  an  image  of  him  he  would 
                                    have  made  sure
that  
                                    such  an  order  was  carried  out, but  that  wasn't  the  case
in  Mark 12 : 16  Jesus  says : 
"Bring me a denarius and
                                    let me look at it." 
They
                                    brought the coin, and he asked them,
"Whose portrait is this? And whose inscription?" 
"Caesar's," they replied.

...In  other  words,  GOD  wants  "OBEDIENCE"
and  Spirit  Worship 
                                    and  "NOT"  worship  as  the
Pagans  give  unto  their  gods  with  the  use
of   icons, images,
                                    statues  and  the  like*
