Was the original gospel of Jesus altered after his death and resurrection? Rocking the Boat: Is It Time to Update Christianity? calls into question some long held traditional Christian beliefs and assumptions about the true mission and message of Jesus. What was the good news Jesus preached about the Fatherhood of God and the brotherhood of mankind? What did Jesus say about salvation and achieving eternal life? How did the ancient Jewish tradition of animal sacrifice influence the theology of atonement? Why was the tomb empty and what happened to the mortal body of Jesus? Who actually wrote the four Gospels? Should we fear God? What will it take to help revive Christianity and make it relevant to younger generations around the world? These and other important questions are discussed and answered using the Bible and the Urantia Book revelation as primary sources. Come along on a journey in search of truth about the Son of Man and the Son of God. Caution: this little book may rock your boat!
