  The 2000 Year Man   
        He was born in an obscure village, where He worked in a carpenter shop until He was thirty. Then for three years He was an itinerant preacher. 
    He never wrote a book.   
    He never had a family or owned a home.   
    He didn’t go to college.   
    He never visited a big city.   
    He never traveled two hundred miles from the place where He was born.   
    He did none of the things that usually accompany greatness.   
    He had no credentials but Himself.
He was only thirty-three when the tide of public opinion turned against Him. His friends ran away. One of them denied Him. He was turned over to His enemies and went through the mockery of a trial. He was nailed to a cross between two thieves.  

While He was dying His executioners gambled for the only property He had on earth. When He was dead, He was laid in a borrowed grave through the pity of a friend. Nineteen centuries have come and gone, and to day He is the central figure of the human race. 

    All of the armies that ever marched, 
    All the navies that ever sailed, 
    All parliaments that ever sat, 
    All the kings the ever reigned, - put together, 
    Have not affected the life of man on this earth as much as He has.
