Cartaphilus Conspiracy

There is lots of room for debate throughout the world about a man named Cartaphilus. Many people of good reputation claim to have spoken to him, and throughout history, some have claimed to have personally known him. There is no mention of Cartaphilus in the Bible, so many of us would write off these tales as folklore. This is a fictional book about conspiracies to commit murder, nothing more. I have not written this book to offend religious sensibilities. This book is pure fiction and based on what if scenarios. 

There have been conspiracies since the beginning of recorded history. The conspiracy to kill Jesus Christ began when he interfered with the finances and politics of the Jewish Temple that was under the authority of the Sanhedrin. Was Jesus killed on the cross? What if he wasn’t? What would we do if we found out that he lived, only to be killed somewhere else? I will take the actual history of time and twist all of this into a mystery.

Each religion has its own version as to what happened in the first century during the Roman occupation of the Middle East. Please remain open-minded and let your imagination wander through time. Then ask yourself, could it have happened that way? The timelines and historical events are close. However, what might Cartaphilus know that historians do not? Perhaps hidden truth about other’s misdeeds. We have trusted and placed faith in what was written well over 2000 years ago, should we trust that? Could Jesus have argued his case when standing before Pontius Pilate? I believe that he could have very easily, but instead chose what he felt was his destiny.
