Isaiah 44:25-26 -- the Brilliance of Jesus; He didn't make sense!

In our world of egos with people who think they have the solution Jesus stepped in an challenged the King of the day.  Before He was 2 the King thought he was a threat and tried to killl Him yet all He did was connect with 12 men of no real stature.  Of course there were a few rich and wise who secrectly tried to find out what he was about but in general it was the nobodies, the blind, the sick... who followed Him for of course, He gave them what they needed...health for both the body and soul.  What is interesting though is today we know the King , with more than one palace killed baby boys but that's about all we know.  But Jesus, really, what did happen 2013 years ago that we would have our calendar year as this?  And why do our universities have so may church sponsored colleges?  And why do our hospitals have the words Grace and St in so many of them??? 

Yes, Jesus...what makes this man so special?  Is it time to read His biographies?  Mark, the teenager who lost his clothes running away from Jesus oposition; Luke the doctor, Matthew, the hated tax collector, John one of Jesus' best friends...  and then Acts, what happened to Jesus' followers after he died.
