720.0. "The Crucifixion" by ICTHUS::YUILLE (He must increase - I must decrease) Thu Apr 27 1995 12:01

   I have available a transcription of a talk on the crucifixion, which 
   includes significant insights.  It is copyrighted, so not for general 
   publication, but pending publication it was felt that it would be of 
   interest to friends here.  I'll include the full disclaimer below, but 
   it's available as a text file from :

		ICTHUS::SYS$PUBLIC:CRUCIFIXION.TXT

   or as a postscript document from :

		ICTHUS::SYS$PUBLIC:CRUCIFIXION.PS

Disclaimer :

    This is a transcription of a talk given by Keith Maxwell, a 
    medical doctor in Asheville, N.C. This is a copyrighted piece, 
    entered without permission of the author, and is not for further 
    distribution.
    
    This talk is approached from the perspective of how a physician 
    would assess the injuries of Jesus if he were there to see the 
    actual physical trauma he experienced. Dr. Maxwell speaks plainly, 
    with as little medical jargon as possible. His development of this 
    topic began to evolve one night when Dr. Maxwell, in the emergency 
    room, thought to himself, "If they brought the Lord in here, 
    exactly what would his physical injuries be like?" 
    
    He hopes through this talk to reveal some things that will make us 
    meditate on the actual suffering Jesus experienced in the last 
    hours of his life.  In the notes that follow are his conclusions 
    about the death of Jesus based on his research, experience as a 
    trauma physician and his understanding of scripture.

    Andrew,
    
	do you have any contact details for Dr Maxwell - other than "Asheville,
NC" ?

	Not that I want to 'drop you in it' - at all, but rather for permission
to re-print the information locally.

	In Him who is our Life,

Hi Harry,

� do you have any contact details for Dr Maxwell - other than "Asheville, NC" ?
� Not that I want to 'drop you in it' - at all, but rather for permission
� to re-print the information locally.

If I had ready contact, I think I could possibly get permission to forward, 
instead of just a disclaimer.  Unfortunately, there are complications in 
this area all I have is this file, which is a transcription from a tape.

						Sorry....

    I just read the article and would thoroughly recommend it to everyone
    in this conference to see just a fraction of the immense suffing of
    Jesus for our sakes (this article only covers the physical sufferings
    of Christ which, although horrific, were nothing compared to the
    spiritual suffering He suffered when He took the punishment for our
    sins and was then cut-off from His Father).
    
    Thanks Andrew for taking the time to put this in - it has done a lot
    for my heart.

Glad you appreciated it, Ben, though it was actually typed in by someone 
else - not by me.
