My husband and I watched a program that used the Shroud as a basis for a computer program that created the face of the man in the shroud. It somewhat resembled the common portrait we see. The really chilling comparison is the face created by this program compared to the famous painting of Jesus done by the young girl who claims to have been taken to heaven. It’s the same face. http://blog.godreports.com/2012/01/for-child-art-prodigy-akiane-jesus-is-for-real/

Her rendition looks like Kenny Loggins. :)

She found someone who looked like Jesus and asked him to be her model.

Apparently, her painting is very close to how Jesus has shown Himself to Colin Burpo, especially his eyes, which Colin thought was His most memorable feature.

I saw that program also (History Channel.) They did a great job detailing how they conducted their research, and went about constructing what they thought the face would look like. I got chills at the end of the program when they revealed the face, with the eyes opening, etc. I thought the program was very well done, and was presented in a very respectful manner.

Wow, that’s really incredible.

Akiane spoke of colorful dreams and visions about heaven, Jesus, and God’s amazing love. Her stunned parents realized her intense focus on God could not have come have been inspired by anything in the world they created for her. Indeed, Akiane seemed to be having supernatural encounters with the living God.

“Most of my spiritual experiences I kept secret, so as not to overwhelm my parents,” she says.

At a tender age, God implanted the desire to articulate her divinely-inspired dreams and visions into art. “When I was four years old, suddenly I started experiencing vivid impressions about different dimensions and a great desire to express them through art,” she says. Initially, she utilized whatever medium was on hand: candles, lipstick, fruits, vegetables, charcoal or pencils.

That picture was also in *Heaven is for Real*.

I had a dream once about seeing Jesus and Him talking to me and years later when I saw that picture in that book, it took me aback, it was so similar, except the eyes were brown and the hair was straighter and a bit longer.
