Judas Lloyd Webber

RECEIVED Tue., Oct. 8, 2019

Dear Editor,
    Jesus Christ Superstar tries to put down Jesus [“Jesus Christ Superstar 50 Years On,” Daily Arts, Oct. 7]. It strips Him of His divinity and questions what He did. The lyrics, “Who are you, what have you sacrificed?” “Did you mean to die like that, was that a mistake?” and other lyrics portray an unbiblical version of Jesus. A careful reading of the Gospels reveals the Son God performing many miracles, dying for our sins on the cross, rising from the dead and ascending into heaven. Andrew Lloyd Webber, like Judas, has betrayed Christ.
