A Cross of Thorns reexamines a chapter of California history that has been largely forgotten -- the enslavement of California's Indian population by Spanish missionaries from 1769 to 1821. California's Spanish missions are one of the state's major tourist attractions, where visitors are told that peaceful cultural exchange occurred between Franciscan friars and California Indians.
God does not let anything go to waste. This includes any instance of pain, suffering, or persecution in the life of the believer. Through God's Word, we know that "all things work together for good to them that love God" (Romans 8:28). This was demonstrated for us in the life, death, and resurrection of our Lord Jesus Christ. We know Christ's sufferings were the price of our redemption. We know that "he was wounded for our transgressions...bruised for our iniquities...and with his stripes we are healed" (Isaiah 53:5). Now, pastor and author Gerald Davis reveals the powerful healing purpose behind The Crown of Thorns. "When I have declared this message, it has yielded amazing results. In this book, you will read of miraculous mental healings that have directly occurred from this revelation. I know you will be blessed as you read and discover this exceptional and life-changing truth." --Gerald Davis

Jesus Christ in History and Scripture highlights two related bases for the current revolution in Jesus studies: (1) a critically-chastened world view that is satisfied with provisional results and (2) a creative (or "poetic") use of the sources of study of Jesus.
