Jesus on Mars

Rating:
Summary: Liar, Lunatic, or Lord?
Review: The first manned mission to Mars discovers a civilization living underground on Mars. About half are human, the other half are an alien race. They speak ancient Greek and Hebrew, and live by Jewish law!

The visitors learn that two thousand years earlier, an alien spacecraft visited Earth and collected many samples of Terran flora & fauna, including humans, some of whom were early Christians. Soon after settling on Mars, Jesus appeared and everyone, including the aliens, became Christians.

Jesus lives with the Martians still, and performs miracles for the visitors.

But is he really the same Jesus described in the Bible? He he really the Son of God? Or is he an alien masquarading as the human religious figure to gain trust and take over? Or all of above?

That's what the visitors and all of Earth must decide as they examine their own religious beliefs as Jesus prepares for his return to Earth.

I found this a fascinating book that I still often think about years later. I hope it is brought back into print.
