Jesus’ Every Word and Deed

John C. Burkhalter

Description

In a Screenplay/Readers Theatre format, the four gospel accounts of Jesus' earthy life are melded into one, using ONLY the words from Scripture, with 58 of the Old Testament Prophecies inserted where fulfilled.

This "Readers Theater" version of Jesus' Every Word and Deed, separates the various roles for groups to interactively verbalize the complete life of
Jesus using only the exact words from the Bible, which is woven to seamlessly read like a book.

This extraordinary work combines the four unique eyewitness accounts of Jesus’ life into a single, unified and harmonious narrative of Jesus' Every
Word and Deed. Fifty-nine Old Testament prophecies are also included where fulfilled in Jesus' life.

Tony Perkins, President of the Family Research Council in Washington, DC states:

"Finally there is a resource that combines the four Gospels into one continuous and compelling account that makes the story of Jesus even more
accessible to those who seek Him. Additionally, Old Testament prophecies that foretell Christ’s words and deeds are inserted in a way that enriches the
whole and everything is color coded for easy identification. I commend John Burkhalter for his labor intensive effort that promises much reward for those
who engage it."

Casual readers, students and scholars alike will enjoy this easy to read but comprehensive work that offers insights for everyone. The entire teachings and actions of Jesus are recorded in Jesus' Every Word and Deed, Readers Theatre Version, which is a companion to the original book Jesus' Every Word and
Deed, Woven From the Scriptures. A mirrored Scripture Reference Section is available in a the back of the original book and its’ eBook which shows where
every word is found by book, chapter and verse. That eBook version also allows the reader to easily toggle back and forth between the book and referencesections.

No "artistic license" is taken and the entirety of the work stands alone in describing the acts, wisdom, and teachings of Jesus in a complete yet concise
format.

A COMPANION TO THE BOOK: JESUS’ EVERY WORD AND DEED
FORMATTED WITH ROLE READINGS
“Finally there is a resource that combines the four Gospels into one continuous and compelling account that makes the story of Jesus even more accessible to those who seek Him. Additionally, Old Testament prophecies that foretell Christ’s words and deeds are inserted in a way that enriches the whole and everything is color coded for easy identification. I commend John Burkhalter for his labor intensive effort that promises much reward for those who engage it.”
Tony Perkins
President, Family Research Council, Washington, DC.

“More than a decade in the making, this work melds the four eyewitness accounts of Jesus’ life into a single version to provide a concise, unified perspective. I highly encourage laymen, pastors and teachers to take this presentation seriously as a valuable learning document for those who wish to understand Jesus’ complete teachings.
“Conceivably, this book could be problematic for some scholars and Bible theologians. However, it does not have to be lost in endless debates over the less important points of precise chronology and matters of minutiae. Burkhalter has concentrated instead on the more weighty matters of exacting the full content of the Gospels so that nothing is lost.
“Also conceived and formatted as a movie script, this document is a significant work with imaginative potential. It could be the basis for a landmark mini-series of film or TV. It’s clearly useful as a text book of the gospels for Bible schools and seminaries and is a treasure for the church for use in small group Bible Studies, church plays, etc..
“Jesus, Every Word and Deed” simply offers something we have not seen before.

ENDORSEMENTS
This work of unifying the Gospel accounts into one cohesive narrative and then adding, at the appropriate points, many of the Old Testament Prophesies that anticipate and foretell the very words and deeds of our Savior is remarkable. You must read this to truly appreciate the attention to detail that helps the most important life of all time to come alive through the written word.

What a blessing to hear God’s WORD like it’s happening right now! The introduction sums up 1300 years of history to make the listener ready for the revelation of the proclamation of the birth of the Savior of the world!
Pastor Norm Tameling , M.Div., Northern Baptist Theological Seminary, Retired Pastor, Christ Church of Oakbrook, IL

Burkhalter has painstakingly poured over the Scriptures—not only to present us with every word and deed of Jesus, but also to show us how the law and the prophets so clearly point to the Messiah’s fulfillment of the promises of God. If you want to encounter Jesus, open this book.

Have you ever finished reading the four gospels and thought “I wish someone would weave all four together so it would read as a complete story as if by a single author”? Look no farther. Jesus’ Every Word and Deed does that for you using nothing but the scripture wordings to tell the story.
