"WOW ---! Kay's Note re: Jesus of Nazareth - the Jewish Encyclopedia"

It is amazing how this article is "MARKED" : When you read it - you can't help but notice all the phrases like:
 
"It is apparent..."
"It would appear..."
"It would seem..."
"It is assumed..."
"It is difficult to decide..."
"This, however, raises the question...."
"It is scarcely to be wondered at..."
"The antinomianism of Jesus became more evident..."  (Just camouflage for disbelief!)
"As far as can be judged..."
 
SOUND FAMILIAR? Amazing, isn't it?
uh-huh....EXACTLY the phrases that the people who WROTE this article will be using when
they stand before HIM at the Great White Throne trying to "explain" their disbelief! I can
ALREADY hear them stammering out their EXCUSES, while a billion angels clad in robes of
light stand in hushed silence before the LAMB:
 
"B-but - God --- it seemed to me---"
"B-but - God --as far as I could judge--"
"B-but - but God --- it appeared to me----"
"B-but - but God--- it was apparent that----"
"B-but God ---I assumed that----"
"B-but God, I was TOLD that---"
"B-but God, I believed that-"
"B-but God, I thought that---"
 
AND the SAME old LAME excuses you will hear from those who trusted in their own WORKS to save them, or in their religion, or some saint, or some dogma, or some church, ANYTHING but believe the truth!
Then the ONE who is HIGH and LOFTY will close the books in their faces and declare, "depart from me ye that work iniquity - I NEVER KNEW YE!"
