Tangible Christ

Watching the History channel, they have so many programs that are "about" Christ.  Of course it is a secular view, a scientific viewpoint.  My question is why?  Will having or seeing something that was Christ's, make their faith stronger?  Do I need to know what Christ really looked like?  Do I need to touch the Shroud of Touran?  Will this make me a better Christian?  I believe what God's word says.  I believe that Jesus is the Son of God who came to die for me so that I could be reconciled to God.  Why?  Not because I have seen the Shroud; not because I have a piece of the actual cross that He was crucified on, but because God sought me.  He sought me because He loved me and for that I am thankful.  Because of that I have the Holy Spirit indwelling in me.  If you want something tangible, look around at His beautiful creation in awe.  

By faith we understand that the entire universe was formed at God's command, that what we now see did not come from anything that can be seen.  - Hebrews 11:3 (NLT)
