The Crucified Man Presentation Kit


An Interactive Kit for use in Church, Sunday School or in fact any arena....
This kit comes with a full size replica foot/ankle with a Roman nail through the calcaneal (heel) bone, full size hand/wrist bones along with a CD Rom that includes printable
work sheets (Wanted/forgiveness posters) as well as a Power Point presentation on the history and process of the crucifixion of Jesus.
In 1968 a team of archaeologist discovered a tomb just out of Jerusalem that held the bones of a man that had been crucified, the first ever discovered in an Archaeological context. The man's calcanues still had a large Roman  nail embedded in it indicating that he had been nailed to a cross, not through the tops of his feet but through both his heels. Clear archaeological evidence for the true passion of Jesus and the pain He went through for our salvation.
This kit is ideally suited to present at any time of year, but especially prior to Easter.
The Power Point presentation goes through the forensics of crucifixion and is quite graphic in nature.
Included on the CD is full instructions on how to use the kit, which now also comes with the hand/ wrist bones allowing you to demonstrate how Jesus would have been nailed not through the palm of the hands as most artists portray but through the wrist between the ulna and radius bones. A proper study of the text of the Gospels clearly demonstrates that the wording includes wrists in Jesus words, when most translations say "see my hands". The kit comes with a extra Roman nail to demonstrate the position of the nail and how it was inserted through the wrist. Also included is a printable "Wanted" poster onto which your listeners can go home and paste their own images.
Who was responsible for the death of Jesus Christ? Not the Jews, not the Romans, but each one of us as individuals, yet therein lies a reward of forgiveness.

These kits are now made to order. Contact us for details.

Biblical Archaeology Reproductions....

For many years the accuracy of the Biblical record was never questioned, but over the last century or so the Bible has been under attack like never before. The accuracy of the historical narrative of the Bible is being questioned throughout the media and the scholarly world. Many claim that the Biblical account is not true and cannot be trusted, that it contains many historical errors. Biblical Archaeology is showing that the Bible can be trusted when you look carefully at the evidence. Some organisations like the "Associates for Biblical Research" are working tirelessly to set the record straight.....

There are many resources available for use in private study, for church presentations and for use in the public arena.
Biblical Archaeology reproductions are available on our Biblical Archaeology page.
Study materials are available through the Associates for Biblical Research.
There are many resources available.

Prayer of Salvation

 

"Father, it is written in your Word that if I confess Jesus is Lord and believe in my heart that You have raised Him from the dead, I shall be saved. Therefore, Father, I confess that Jesus is my Lord. I make Him Lord of my life right now. I believe in my heart that You raised Jesus from the dead. I renounce my sinful past. I thank you for forgiving me of all my sin. Jesus is my Lord, and I am now a new creation. Old things have past away; now all things become new in Jesus name. Amen."

Take Communion in your home or Fellowship group with our Communion Cup sets from Bethlehem!


They devoted themselves to the apostles teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer…..They broke bread together in their homes and ate together with glad and sincere hearts. Acts 2:42,46b

 The Early Christians on instructions from Jesus on the night before He died, did celebrate the "breaking of bread" in remembrance of Him. They celebrated it in their homes and with fellow believers. It was only after the Roman authorities broke these home meetings up thinking they were secret meetings, that the breaking of bread then took place in public worship. So the first celebration of communion or breaking of bread was in the family home, and was celebrated around a meal just as it was when Jesus instituted it. The Passover meal, is what we are remembering at communion as was Jesus when He was in fact remembering that night many years before at the first Passover when the angel of death was caused to" Passover” the houses of those who had placed the blood on the lintels of their doors and ate the first meal, a covenant meal of protection.

When Jewish people had an issue to reconcile with another person they would have a meal with them over which they would reconcile their differences. A meal of reconciliation to right wrongs, to establish forgiveness. David said in Psalm 23:5 You prepare a table for me in the presence of my enemies. This was a table of reconciliation with ones enemies, those with whom you had differences. As we gather as a family around our dinner table, reconcile your differences, reaffirm your covenant with God, and celebrate the work that Jesus wrought for each of us on Calvary.

Sharing the Lord's Supper, Communion together as a couple, as a family or as a fellowship group or just with friends is a precious time to come before the Lord. Sharing communion is a time of reconciliation before the Lord, a time when you bring your life before the Lord, and get things right before Him.
Our communion cup sets are made in Bethlehem and are fully washable. They are a great gift idea for those special occasions and make communion just a little more special.
We have specific sets available, but we also make up larger sets for fellowship groups. Contact us through our contact page for prices.
