His death on the Cross was a great example to the world, but that there was anything like a mysterious or miraculous virtue in it my heart could not accept. I could accept Jesus as a martyr, an embodiment of sacrifice, and a divine teacher, but not as the most perfect man ever born. Again, according to Christianity only human beings had souls, and not other living beings, for whom death meant complete extinction while I held a contrary belief. Metaphorically there might be some truth in it. My reason was not ready to believe literally that Jesus by his death and by his blood redeemed the sins of the world. ![]() If Jesus was like God, or God Himself, then all men were like God and could be God Himself.

Was the fact that Hastings had returned and was the narrator a great addition to this book? For me I believe yes and for others who have not read any Poirot novels and met his friend Captain Hastings I still think yes, as I believe the narration comments he makes just endear his character to any reader. Also the ever present threat to Poirot was part of the suspense. Instead we had different events in different locations and always the feeling of having to look over your shoulder no matter where we were. ![]() ![]() I really did want to read it quickly as it was holding my attention well and I kept wanting to know what was going to happen next and who Number Four was, but it also helped that I had been unwell for the four days before this and still not back to fighting fit form so I did not feel guilty about reading so much in one day.Ī very different storyline to her last book The Murder of Roger Ackroyd with this one not being about a specific murder and the household of suspects.
