There's actually a $1m dollar challenge from a film maker David Rolf to anyone who can prove it was a forgery. He started as a skeptic of the shroud and but later came to faith in Jesus during his research for a documentary on it.

Asides for it being evidence for the resurrection, it also shows how much Jesus suffered to die on our behalf. Attached are images of the wounds including 372 scourge marks. It also shows that he likely had a broken nose due to having no arms available when he fell from carrying the cross. It makes me tear up knowing how much Jesus suffered for our sake.

Yesterday I read the passion in John’s Gospel from an old Recovery Version. WL’s outline titles are so cold and calloused without feeling. Our Lord brutally tortured and the heading says “Life Processed.” Totally void of empathy. Makes me sick to realize how we were taught about Jesus’ suffering for our sins. “Life Processed for our enjoyment.” I grew up on these doctrines. Now so pathetic.
