The Second Messiah by Christopher Knight

For almost seven and a half centuries, a piece of cloth was venerated because it bore the image of the crucified Christ. However, but results of carbon dating have shown that the fabric could not have predated 1260. Now new evidence conclusively proves that it is not a face.yet neither is it the image of Jesus Christ.In the follow-up to their groundbreaking first book, The Hiram Key, Christopher Knight and Robert Lomas continue their research into the mysteries of Freemasonry and the true historical Jesus, and uncover the precise time and place of the shroud s creation.The answer to the great mystery of the Shroud of Turin will surprise and astonish as the authors unlock the secrets of abandoned Freemason rituals and the man who would be called the Second Messiah.

Dr. Robert Lomas earned a B.Sc. in electronics with honors before going on to get a Ph.D. in solid-state physics with a focus on improving the theory and practice of crystalline semiconducting hetro-junction photo-optic devices. He moved on to work on the first microprocessor chips and missile guidance systems before focusing in software development for Fire, Ambulance, and Rescue Services command and control systems. He later gained expertise in data mining and data capture techniques, which he applied to help emergency services control rooms improve their response times. He taught data-based command and control as a visiting lecturer at the Fire Service Staff College for a time. He became a Freemason in 1986 and immediately became a well-known lecturer on Masonic history before co-authoring the international best-sellers The Hiram Key, The Second Messiah, Uriel's Machine, and The Book of Hiram.

He's been writing on his own since 2000, and his books include Turning the Hiram Key, Freemasonry and the Origins of Modern Science, and The Man Who Created the Twentieth Century, among others. He also publishes academic texts like Mastering Your Business Dissertation and Masonic publications like The Hidden Science of Masonic Initiation. He is currently a Visiting Fellow in Information Systems at Bradford University School of Management in Yorkshire, United Kingdom. His most recent work is Freemasonry for Beginners.
