The Halo of Christ

In twelve chapters and an epilogue, The Halo of Christ presents thirty-four aspects of Christ's moral character, which was His real halo. In all its human and spiritual force, His character has made an esteemed impact both upon the past and the present. In the Roman cultus of His day, He made a life-changing confrontation that resulted in a new epoch that persists even to this modern age. His unique approach, so different from the Graeco-Roman style, demonstrated such force as to stretch across whole centuries, to seep into the corridors of whole continents, and to pass in review before all races of people. From the posture of quiet dignity, a servant spirit, and a deliberate assumption of the world's moral burden, His greatness and originality made its lasting impact.




Christ's winning characteristic of personal mastery captured first attention. His strength, authority, poise, endurance, leadership ability, firmness, and courage, raised heads and left them quaking like a whirlwind passing through a wheat field. People followed Him due to His engaging transparency in all its sincerity, candor, and moral integrity. They continued to follow because of His infectious radiance - a festive spirit of humor, irony, and unspeakable joy. He held the highest respect and optimism for persons and drew them out through His magnanimous spirit - His resolved inclusiveness, tolerance, non-jealous spirit, undiscourageable goodwill, and moral affection.




Still, with His congenial personality established, Christ was no weak, demure, sexless being. At times, He became slightly exasperated, incensed, irritated, perturbed, or aggravated. At other times, He became fully indignant, abhorrent, outraged, virulent, and almost venomous. His anger was the opposite side of the coin of love. Again, He bore such unifying sexuality that anyone who studies His disposition toward sex, will discover for himself or herself, a healthy and realistic sexual concept.




In the epilogue of the book, the snowflakes of Christ's character pile up to form a Godlikeness that became His strategy for remaking the world.
