D. Bercot. Most western Christians immediately recognize a picture of Jesus when they see one. His face is as familiar as that of Abraham Lincoln or George Washington. Or is it? Is it possible that the real Jesus looked nothing like the portraits of him that have become so commonplace? In this set of audio message and CD-ROM (or PDF files), Bercot looks at the historical facts. No portraits or sculptures of Jesus were made in His lifetime. However, we do have paintings and sculptures of men who lived near or at the time of Jesus.
What do they tell us? What about the paintings of Jesus in the catacombs? In addition to discussing these historical sources, Bercot talks about the Shroud of Turin and whether or not it is likely to be the genuine burial cloth of Jesus.

I remember talking to a brother who has long hair about 1 Corinthians 11 where men should have short hair by nature, and then he responded that Jesus had long hair too. My guts told me that it couldn’t be true that He had long hair, but I didn’t know where to start to find out the truth. I’m really glad that Bercot did this topic, and I like it how he always goes back to the primary sources and finds out answers.
