Ok, they were written after the fact.&amp;nbsp; It&#39;s not like anyone thought it was important enough to be sure a reporter followed&amp;nbsp;him, from&amp;nbsp;cradle to grave,&amp;nbsp;everywhere and wrote about his every move quoting him left and right all the time.&amp;nbsp; What did he say or do that was all that newsworthy?&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;I mean look at how many others had done or&amp;nbsp;were doing the same kinda&amp;nbsp;stuff!&amp;nbsp; For all anyone knew, he was just another run-of-the-mill revolutionary wannabe happy to have a following.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; But, it was&amp;nbsp;years&amp;nbsp;later...&amp;nbsp; when, it was like some regular Joe&#39;s on the run&amp;nbsp;behaving like the world should&#39;ve&amp;nbsp;already ended and seeing that their cohorts were dying, were&amp;nbsp;grappling about trying to get enough materials to make a coherent story that had a&amp;nbsp;beginning, middle, and&amp;nbsp;closing&amp;nbsp;about WHAT?&amp;nbsp; for WHAT?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp; What if&amp;nbsp;the writers had collaborated better and had&amp;nbsp;only thought, &quot;Gee!&amp;nbsp; You know this stuff&amp;nbsp;is bound&amp;nbsp;to&amp;nbsp;make worldwide best seller lists!&amp;nbsp; We could make a fortune!&quot;&amp;nbsp; Seems to me they&#39;d done a lot more to spice it all up rather than start circulating these separate&amp;nbsp;gospels that look so half baked and&amp;nbsp;thrown together!&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;But, years&amp;nbsp;after they&#39;d found themselves walking and talking with Jesus, the one they saw crucified, the one&amp;nbsp;God raised (Well, if he was really&amp;nbsp;the same Jesus,&amp;nbsp;who else could&#39;ve raised him)&amp;nbsp;from the dead after he had been dead a few days, and after they&#39;d seen him go up into the clouds, and years after they started walking and talking about all this throughout the known world, &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Dang!&amp;nbsp; We&#39;re not getting any younger!&lt;br /&gt;
Dang!&amp;nbsp; We gotta&amp;nbsp;get this together!&lt;br /&gt;
Dang!&amp;nbsp; The world hasn&#39;t ended, something&#39;s up!&lt;br /&gt;
Dang!&amp;nbsp; We&#39;d better start writin&#39;!&lt;br /&gt;
Dang!&amp;nbsp; Someone should have been there taking note at the very start!&lt;br /&gt;
Nobody ever spoke like this man!&lt;br /&gt;
What do any of us remember?&lt;br /&gt;
What did he say?&lt;br /&gt;
What did he do?&lt;br /&gt;
Where all&amp;nbsp;did he walk and talk?&amp;nbsp; Anyone remember?&lt;br /&gt;
Why was he killed?&lt;br /&gt;
Where did he come from?&lt;br /&gt;
Where was he born?&lt;br /&gt;
Is his&amp;nbsp;father alive?&amp;nbsp; What about his mother?&lt;br /&gt;
Gotta find out all we can about this guy!&lt;br /&gt;
HURRY UP!&lt;br /&gt;
Is ANYONE around who can attest, or deny, what we&#39;re really trying to get across about the man?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Grappled they did ... around the same basic pieces of information:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
1.&amp;nbsp; He was crucified,&lt;br /&gt;
2.&amp;nbsp; He was dead,&lt;br /&gt;
3.&amp;nbsp; He was buried,&lt;br /&gt;
4.&amp;nbsp; A few days later, he was raised from the dead (something only God could have made happen).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
