On 15 February 1994, Kenyan nun Sister Anna Hadija Ali, held a press conference in Rome and spoke about her experience of meetings every Thursday since 1987 with Jesus Christ. Two photographs she had taken of Jesus in 1987 and 1988 were displayed at the conference

I quoted from The Archko Volume, a little-
known book written by Drs McIntoch and Twyman, printed in 1887.
These men had discovered written reports in the Vatican Library
dealing with Christ. One of these contained a description of Jesus
that remarkably coincides with the descriptions given by the
various subjects. After Jesus and the Essenes was printed I came
across another letter which contained a similar description.This
startling document was also discovered in the Vatican Library. It
was supposedly written to the Roman Senate at the time of Christ by
Publius Lentulus, then Roman proconsul in Judaea, a predecessor and
friend of Pontius Pilate. The following is his description of
Jesus.

This is a man of noble and well-proportioned stature, with a face
full of kindness and firmness, so that the beholders both love him
and fear him. His hair is the colour of wine (probably tawny) and
golden at the root- straight and without lustre- but from the level
of the ears curling and glossy, and divided down the centre after
the fashion of the Nazarenes.
His forehead is even and smooth. His face without blemish and
enhanced by a tempered bloom; his countenance ingenuous and kind;
his beard full, of the same colour as his hair, and forked in form;
his eyes blue and extremely brilliant.
In reproof and rebuke he is formidable; in exhortation and
teaching gentle and amiable of tongue. None have seen him to laugh,
but many, of the contrary, to weep. His person is tall; his hands
beautiful and straight. In speaking he is deliberate and grave and
little given to loquacity; in beauty surpassing most men.

Hi

I accessed the page. It has an image of Jesus in black and white, one cannot see the colour of his eyes.
I clicked on “Sister Anna Ali Homepage” three time but could not access it. I was only interested in “Physical description of Jesus”, sorry I did not read the other material being off topic, moreover the experience of “Sister Anna Hadija Ali” is not approved, I think, by Vatican. I think if it would have been genuine, they would have approved it. Any reason?

Thanks and regards
 
I believe there are many things not accepted by the Vatican.

Sister Anna of Kenya Interview:

For several years, and particularly of recent, many private revelations have been reported in various countries of Africa. We have heard about the apparitions of Jesus or the Blessed Virgin Mary, but none of these apparitions have been researched into and brought to the notice of the wider public. I have been wondering why this is so.
For the past five years, I have been studying most of these apparitions (Otukpor, Enugu, Kibeho in Rwanda, Cairo). I found most of them enlightening. I have, therefore, after the most careful consideration, undertaken to edit and send for publication the revelations made to a 25-year-old Kenyan girl, now a professed Sister of the Pious Union of Daughters of Jesus, the Good Shepherd, founded by His Grace Archbishop Emmanuel Milingo (Special Delegate Pontifical Council for the Pastoral Care of Migrant and Itinerants, Vatican City). The following points ought to be carefully noted:

I am aware that some people might shudder at these revelations, and might be saying to themselves “how can this come from an African girl?” However, I do not think the question need arise, for in listening to the testimonies of people about their various experiences of God, what matters is what is said and not who said it.
It is important also to reflect on the fact that Anna Ali is a girl of limited education (She reached Form 4 in a secondary school). Her studies were interrupted by ill-health. When she was eventually healed through the prayer of Archbishop Emmanuel Milingo, she traveled to Rome with the sole purpose of giving her life to God within a religious congregation.

Hi

I accessed the above website. How to confirm that the letter is in the Vatican, any reference from the Catholic website or from Cahtholi Encyclopedia?

Also the website mentions certain things not believed by the Catholics, I think:

**JESUS IS NOT GOD **
In the bible one may read in John verse whatever that Jesus is God. WRONG.
In Chapter 91 Verse 35 Jesus states
And Jesus said, All men are sons of God and if they live a holy life they always are at home with God.
In Chapter 147 Verse 20 he states
“Now, Hark, you men, if he could say that to the men who simply heard the word of God, why should you think that I blaspheme the name of God because I say, I am a son of God?”
In other words he says that he is a son of God, not God.

**Romans not responsible for Jesus’ death
Who is responsible for Jesus’ death? **

The guards of Herod were not under Pilate’s command. They were under Herod. Herod had hired Roman soldiers as his guard. But Herod was Jewish not roman. Pilate had no responsibility for Herod’s soldiers. Therefore it was the Jews that had crucified Jesus.

Jesus’ Description By His Mother
Chapter 20, verse 5 states
And then they went up to the temple courts and asked the guards, Have you seen Jesus, a fair-haired boy, with deep blue eyes, twelve years of age, about these courts?

Name of the book is not mentioned, therefore, I could not find it.

Would anybody help.

Thanks
 
I was on Sister Anna of Kenya Homepage several weeks ago; apparently ther is a problem with it…maybe they are updating it…Remember Sr Anna is with the church and she has to do what the church tells her…

Per the Holy Mother there is a lot the Vatican does not want the people to know…but they won’t be able to hold off much longer…
 
It is true Pontius Pilate washed his hands and declared “I Pontius Pilate have washed my hands of this affair…Let it be written,” and it was written.

Also Dolores Cannon is the researcher of the Jesus description it is in her book “Jesus and the Essenes” but others have mentioned it…hundreds
 
There are sites that state the letter of Jesus description may have been fiction but , it agrees with other letters held. But, what is proof of Jesus description is those hundreds who have seen him in appearance, and in public such as Coldwater Springs, KY before thousands …I also have read Michael Baigent’s book “Jesus Papers” it tells what happens to a lot of writings found, there are papers Jesus wrote…Baigents book discusses them. Many are locked away in bank security boxes, under fictious names for protection…

Different manuscripts vary from the foregoing text in several details: Dobschutz (“Christusbilder”, Leipzig, 1899) enumerates the manuscripts and gives an “apparatus criticus” . The letter was first printed in the “Life of Christ” by Ludolph the Carthusian (Cologne, 1474), and in the “Introduction to the works of St. Anselm” (Nuremberg, 1491). But it is neither the work of St. Anselm nor of Ludolph. According to the manuscript of Jena, a certain Giacomo Colonna found the letter in 1421 in an ancient Roman document sent to Rome from Constantinople. It must be of Greek origin, and translated into Latin during the thirteenth or fourteenth century, though it received its present form at the hands of humanist of the fifteenth or sixteenth century. The description agrees with the so-called Abgar picture of our Lord; it also agrees with the portrait of Jesus Christ drawn by Nicephorus, St. John Damascene, and the Book of Painters (of Mt. Athos). Munter (“Die Sinnbilder und Kunstvorstellungen der alten Christen”, Altona 1825, p. 9) believes he can trace the letter down to the time of Diocletian; but this is not generally admitted. The letter of Lentulus is certainly apocryphal: there never was a Governor of Jerusalem; no Procurator of Judea is known to have been called Lentulus, a Roman governor would not have addressed the Senate, but the emperor, a Roman writer would not have employed the expressions, “prophet of truth”, “sons of men”, “Jesus Christ”. The former two are Hebrew idioms, the third is taken from the New Testament. The letter, therefore, shows us a description of our Lord such as Christian piety conceived him.
 
I would like to point out that as Jesus is risen, his body has its glorified form. He may or may not look anything like he did on earth. Also, as he is God, he can appear with any form he wills.

Hi

In other words we could say, in my opinion, it is all superstition.

Thanks
 
Words of Sister Anna in Kenya interview:

digilander.libero.it/appellodivino/notr3.htm

WHY DID JESUS ALLOW HIMSELF TO BE PHOTOGRAPHED?
The answer is given by the Lord Himself:

“Listen to me. I am above this earth. I allow myself to be seen after many warnings” (12.15 am, 3rd April 1988; Cf. 11th December 1987).
“I make myself visible in order to bring back souls” (10th April, 1988).
“I love mankind and I make myself visible in order to give my warnings of mercy” (12th April, 1988). Note the distinction between “Warnings of Mercy” and "Warnings of Justice’ in all of the messages.]]
“Many do not listen to me because they do not believe in my reality” (23rd April, 1988).
I find the four reasons to be of theological importance. Jesus wants to evoke faith in His person, for many do not believe in a historical Jesus of Nazareth. They have no faith! In His caring love, Jesus permitted himself to be photographed.

The hidden God who once came in the flesh (Jm. 1:14; Gal. 4:4) and walked on the streets of Palestine, has now begun to make Himself visible once again so that those who doubt His reality will no longer doubt but believe that He is the Living One (Rev. 1:18). He cares. He loves and saves. Countless times He said to Sr. Anna: “I do not want anyone to perish.”
 
No matter how many times you point out things about Jesus, how he appears, what he has told us, what he has done to prove who he is, some people wont believe it until he personally comes up to them and hits them with a sledge hammer saying, I am Jesus, Son of God!

Sadly, its just the way of the world these days, there are so many people with harden hearts, they wont give Jesus a go until they soften their hearts and let him in.

That is exactly what Jesus, his Mother Mary, and God the Father; have said…They plan on using the sledgehammer by 2012

Guess what! They plan on wiping out 2/3 of the world…It was written in the Old Testament it would happen and it is in Revelations…Definitely by 2019…They are warning…They said the world is worse now then it was with Noah…I have found thousands of written words by people who have spoken with them…
 
Nobody knows when the end of the world is going to happen, only God himself knows.

I am quoting Holy Mother…I will find her material and post it…Everyone knows she has been appearing all the world for 25 years, and I am sure she would not lie to us…They want us prepared for it…because they care…

Also, it won’t be the end…It will be the beginning…of a new world and new life…There will be survivors…for this new world…Holy Mother and Jesus said so to thousands of witnesses…and the witnesses recorded it on tape…video…and wrote it on paper for everyone to see, and hear, read and watch…

Because They care about the world…
