- THE TURIN SHROUD (Part 2).
- In 1988, the Church finally agreed to the carbon-14 test of the Turin Shroud. ... With the Shroud samples went fragments of other ancient fabrics whose ages were already known to act as controls. ... The flax from which the linen of the Shroud had been woven had been harvested some time between 1260 and 1390. Around the world the Turin Shroud was denounced by the media as a 'forgery'. Then it was discovered that, far from it being a blind testing, the scientists doing the tests had recognised the sample which had come from the Shroud, and that unauthorised persons had been allowed to witness the tests. ...
- Few of those who have examined the shroud believe that it is a medieval fake; they believe it is much more likely to be the burial cloth of a crucified first-century Palestinian. ...
- If the Turin Shroud is authentic, then one mystery still remains. Where was the Shroud before 1357, when the de Charny family began to show it to fee-paying pilgrims in the French town of Lirey? Sceptics say that this was because it had only just been faked and use as the argument for their case the fact that the image of the face on the shroud conforms closely to the 14th century conventional image of Jesus - bearded, commanding, with a V-shape at the bridge of the nose. ... However, the opposite argument could be true, that the long line of traditional portrayals of Christ stems from the image on the Turin Shroud itself.
- It is not legend but a historical fact that the Byzantines so prized a holy relic, which they called the Mandylion, (a name derived from a Greek word for an ecclesiastical robe) that they organized an expedition in 944 to wrest it from the Muslims who had gained control of Edessa. ...
- Thereafter he is always shown as longhaired, bearded, and with a pronounced V above the bridge of his nose - all features that correspond to the image on the Turin Shroud. Could it not be that the Mandylion lost in 1204 resurfaced as the shroud 150 years later?.
- But the shroud shows signs of having been folded, and it could be that only the head was open to view. ... Could Geoffrey's family have been the very people who put the Mandylion on display in 1357 as the burial shroud of Christ? At least, it is a plausible explanation of the sudden appearance of this relic after a lapse of many centuries.
- This, then, is a brief history of the object known as the Turin Shroud, with one or two of the arguments for and against its authenticity thrown in. Whether or not you think this is indeed the burial shroud of Jesus Christ is up to you. ...

The Shroud of Turin is also not consistent with Gospel accounts of Jesus' burial, which clearly refer to multiple cloths and a separate napkin over his face.
- Carbon-14 dating has demonstrated that the Shroud is a 14th-century forgery and is one of many such deliberately created relics produced in the same period, all designed to attract pilgrims to specific shrines to enhance and increase the status and financial income of the local church.

33. The Holy Shroud, Introduction
- www.crc-internet.org
- THE HOLY SHROUD.
- Figure 1: After the announcement of the results of the fraudulent carbon 14 dating by Cardinal Ballestrero (13 October 1988), the Church locked the Holy Shroud in its reliquary "as a dirty rag is thrown in the dustbin. ...
- The same goes for the Holy Shroud as for the Gospel. ... And that is what we shall do in preparation for the exposition to take place in Turin from the 18th April to the 31st May 1998, the fifth centenary of the consecration of the Cathedral of Saint John the Baptist, and the first centenary of the exposition of 1898, during which the first photograph of the Holy Shroud was taken (28 May 1898).
- But since it is the "mediaeval dating" that is a "hoax", the Holy Shroud is genuine. ... The Holy Shroud is truly, really, substantially the sheet in which Joseph of Arimathea, Nicodemus and Saint John shrouded the Body of Our Lord Jesus Christ on the evening of Good Friday. In his Gospel, Saint John relates how Saint Peter and he found this "Shroud" (soudarion), carefully rolled up, apart from the other funerary cloths, in the empty tomb, on Easter morning (Jn 20. ...
- The last time was in 1978, when three and a half million pilgrims filed past the Holy Relic unfolded full length and displayed above the high altar of Saint John the Baptists Cathedral, at Turin, during those blessed days of the pontificate of the holy Pope John-Paul I. ...
- The Church is like Saint Veronica: down the centuries for two thousand years, but more than ever now in our modern times "on the threshold of the third millennium", she lovingly keeps this cloth left to her by Jesus after having mysteriously imprinted it not only with the features of His Holy Face, but also with the image of His Body, naked, scourged, wounded all over with the sacred stigmata of His sorrowful Passion, so that in contemplating these images, this virginal Spouse, the Church, might be absorbed in the memory of her Saviours agony and might devote herself to loving and consoling Him for the many blasphemies and outrages that have reached their fill in these times of apostasy in which we are living, renewing the insults of His Passion.
- In this spirit of reparation, soon after the Revolution and the Empire, the 19th century was the century par excellence of devotion to the Holy Face. And yet, before the exposition of 1898, it was not the Holy Shroud kept at Turin that was the object of this devotion, but the image honoured and then propagated by "the holy man of Tours", Monsieur Dupont, from 1851.
- After the death of Sister Marie de Saint-Pierre, "the holy man of Tours" became the messenger of this mystical message, by exhibiting the Roman Holy Face, the "Veil of Veronica" in his study, soon to be transformed into an oratory. ...
- She was, therefore, already a member of the Confraternity of the Holy Face. ...
- She could rightly be called Saint Thérèse of the Holy Face, based on the testimony of Mother Agnes: Devotion to the Holy Face was the Servant of Gods special attraction. ...
- Guy Gaucher rightly remarks that "the word devotion to the Holy Face suggests some optional pious practice, left to the freedom of each individual". ...

- The Wounds of the PassionThe man on the Shroud was crucified in the same way as Jesus, and details of the wounds which appear on the Shroud correspond to those in the Gospels, namely: the nail wounds in the hands and feet, the injuries around the head from the "crown of thorns", the whip marks, the injury to the chest, and the absence of fractures to the leg bones. The Greek Gospels refer to the Shroud as "Sindon", (in Italian, "Sindone") meaning piece of cloth, or funeral shroud. The Shroud is an image. ...

- The Shroud's HistoryThe Shroud arrived in Turin in 1578 from Chambéry, then the capital of the Duchy of Savoy, and it has been kept in Turin Cathedral ever since. Reliable historical documents record the Shroud's movements, without interruption, from the mid-fourteenth century. It is known that in 1350s the Shroud was in Lirey, France, and perhaps previously it was in the East, initially in Edessa and later in Constantinople, before being brought to Europe during the Crusades. ... Umberto II left the Shroud to the Pope in his will, and in 1983 it became the property of the Holy See. The Holy Shroud has been publicly displayed over the last four centuries, most recently in 1978, to celebrate the four-hundredth anniversary of its arrival in Turin. ...
- ScienceThe Shroud began to "surprise" a century ago when it was photographed for the first time by Secondo Pia, in 1898. The negative of that photograph revealed in detail, and with even greater clarity than the positive image, all the "wounds" that the Shroud preserved. How was the image on the Shroud formed? Science has not yet come up with any plausible explanations. ... ¨ Pollens have been found on the cloth, strongly supporting the view that the Shroud spent time not only in Europe but also in the Near East. ¨ Tests on traces of blood from the Shroud have revealed the presence of human blood from blood group AB. ¨ In 1988, carbon-14 dating was carried out on a fragment of the Shroud. ...

- According to tradition the Holy Shroud is the burial shroud in which Jesus was wrapped after he was taken down from the cross.

- This tradition matches the historical vicissitudes of the Holy Shroud, although the documentation of the Turin Shroud can only be considered absolutely certain and complete from the mid fourteenth century onwards. ...
- The Holy Shroud has always aroused great interest, but the first photograph of it gave an entirely new direction to all studies on the subject, and to the cult of the Shroud itself.

The imprint on the Shroud therefore behaves like a naturally negative image, with the exception of the bloodstains and the marks of the wounds, as will be explained below.

- No man can serve two masters, yet in the ignorance of the world the wisdom of God does not shine through because the modern Church has kept the vast majority in the darkness, not allowing men to see the glorious true face of Christ through the Exaltation of the Most Holy Cross. Yet, it still shines through in the darkness, radiating brightly in every Holy Sacrifice of the Mass. ...

- www.missionoftheshroud.com
- The Shroud of Turin is a piece of linen measuring 14 feet x 10 1/2 inches at its full length. ... Some years remain unexplainable as to the disappearance of the Shroud of Turin (about 18 years). In 1531, the Shroud of Turin was subjected to a fire where the silver casket containing the Shroud melted over the Shroud, making it literally impossible to have an accurate dating by the carbon-14 dating process. In the research done by me, Roger Poisson, photographically, we come to conclude that the structure of the human race is embodied into the blood of the man of the Shroud. ... Miracroulsly, proving the divinity within these fibers is that we are finding numerous scenes of before the birth of this man, Jesus, where we portray him to be the man of the shroud. ...
- However the man of the Shroud also reveals in his blood the times of Abraham, Moses, Adam and Eve, the times of today and yet, the future. If we refer to Christ as the man of the Shroud, who else could have seen the past, the present and the future? It is not merely words, because the Shroud of Turin bears images of the entire human race from creation into forever. ...
- If the man of the Shroud is other than the greatest man that we could reveal through the shroud, known as Jesus Christ, what other man could it be that we never heard of, other than him? The incredible factor of this document that you now read is that we could prove what we say. ... We invite you to click on any of the few photos on this website, under Shroud of Turin findings, enlarge it, take time with belief in your heart to scrutinize it and you will discover things of your own. ...
