“When Jesus came to earth, demons recognized him, the sick flocked to him, and sinners doused his feet and head with perfume.

Could we be perpetuating an image of Jesus that fits our pious expectations but does not match the person portrayed so vividly in the Gospels?” ShouldPersonsDoeEarthJesusReligiousWonderFeetTypeFitExpectationsSickJewRejectionDemonSinnerReverseStrictPerfumeOffendedPiousPreconceptionsPerpetuating Book:The Jesus I Never Knew Study Guide Source: The Jesus I Never Knew Study Guide

“There are people accusing me that I'm sick, that I'm a danger to morals, western civilization and basically everything under the sun. And they've got these wild stories about me, completely off the wall, completely untrue.

“I never had a checkbook. It used to be cash in hand, stuff in the pocket, or a manager would keep some accounts and give me money.
