The Conspiracy to Assassinate Jesus Christ

Christopher Seepe

Jesus Christ is about to start a revolution—but it’s not the one he had in mind!

 

In this novel, a completely original plot unfolds as the same events described in the Bible are driven by entirely new and plausible motivations of Pontius Pilate and Joseph Caiaphas, high priest of the Judean people. Encouraged by Jesus’ words, ‘I did not come to bring peace but a sword, to set a man against his father …,’ Pilate secretly wants Jesus to become the Judean people’s military leader and incite them into an uprising against Rome. Caiaphas, meanwhile, advances his own agenda by conspiring with others close to Jesus to manipulate the Sanhedrin, Judea’s high council, and the Romans into executing Jesus, also intending to inflame the Judean people into rebelling against Rome Why do both men want to kindle an uprising against Rome? Why do they want Jesus dead? What role does the Praetorian Prefect, Sejanus, play in this multi-faceted conspiracy? Learn from Jesus’ own words about his journey from toddler to adult. Discover his bloodline relationships, the evolution of his divine powers, his relationship with God, and gain an insight into the nature of God. The startling conclusions will have every reader contemplating the many still hotly debated religious concepts in this original could-have-been historical fiction thriller.

I'm not sure I understand. Would abortion not have been an inconceivable thought for Joseph, Jesus' stepfather?

The book is, in fact, complete but not fully uploaded.
