Henrik. (1966).’’ The boy who painted the Christ black’’.American Negro Short Stories. Ed. John Henrik Clarke. New york: Hill And Wang 1966. 108-114. The bible never mentioned no description of the physical apparence of Jesus. That’s why every nation painted Jesus their own way‚ because the bible did not cite any detail about his color or race‚ and ‘’the boy painted Jesus black’’. Was he wrong? Who knows. The world has a perception of a white Christ. It is inconceivable to some people that

is Directly Compared to Jesus Christ Throughout the novel "a prayer for Owen Meany‚" by John Irving‚ the main character is portrayed as a very religious martyr. In the Christian faith Jesus Christ is a martyr as well.

Godspell vs. Jesus Christ Superstar Godspell and Jesus Christ Superstar are two very different productions based off the Bible and the story of Jesus. Though created in the same decade‚ the two have many differences as well as many similarities. Godspell is a very “trippy” musical based in a city‚ a house‚ and a junkyard of some sort. This scenery is nothing like that of Jesus Christ Superstar’s desert setting of nothing but rocks and dirt‚ much like what Jesus would have actually lived through
