Showing results for "Luca" in Religious Studies

Teenager Lucas Leonard made shocking admissions in front of the altar - he'd practiced witchcraft, conspired to murder his parents, and committed unspeakable crimes. The confessions earned him a brutal beating by a gang of angry church members, including his parents and sister. Lucas was brought to the hospital dead, awakening the sleepy community of Chadwicks, New York, to the horror that had been lurking next door. Nine members of Lucas' church would eventually find themselves facing murder-related charges. But how did they get to that point? And what made Lucas confess?

El Evangelio de Lucas, o Evangelio según san Lucas es el tercero y más extenso de los cuatro evangelios canónicos del Nuevo Testamento bíblico. Relata la vida de Jesús de Nazaret, centrándose especialmente en su nacimiento, ministerio público, muerte, resurrección y termina con el relato de su ascensión. El propósito de Lucas, al escribir una historia de la vida, muerte, y resurrección de Jesucristo, era que las personas fuera de la fe y cultura judía pudieran entender el mensaje de salvación.
