Book excerpt: Jesus Christ Lives: So Great was the Astonishment of the People! is a singular, complete, and purely scriptural account not only of Jesus’ earthly recorded life and teachings among mankind in the land of Jerusalem, but also his resurrected ministry among righteous inhabitants in Ancient America. It is taken both from the best of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John’s accounts in the King James Version of the Holy Bible, as well as the account given in Third Nephi of the Book of Mormon. This book is written for the purpose of removing all the unrelated material and complexity in a person’s attempt to get a basic, clear, yet comprehensive overview of Jesus’ life and teachings among the people who knew him, and recorded their experiences with him in the Biblical account. In the Book of Mormon is the pure, unaltered account of the resurrected Lord’s ministry among the Nephites. . Instead of four partial accounts of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John in the Holy Bible, this book presents a single story of their accounts, followed by the account of the Savior’s Ancient American ministry. The book includes an index and marking system which makes easily available all of the events, sermons, parables, and miracles recorded in the Biblical section. Jesus Christ Lives: So Great was the Astonishment of the People! is an attempt to gather in simplicity for youth, as well as adults, the Savior’s concepts, wisdom and Spirit in these two ministries.
