" Einstein read the bibles, Old and New Testaments, regularly. He enjoyed the historical and spiritual aspects of the books in question particularly the New Testament. He loved reading the Gospels chiefly because Jesus fascinated him. In fact, when reading the Gospels, Einstein could feel the 'Presence' of Jesus. We read these in "Einstein: a Life", by Brian, Denis (a good biography).
The biographer somewhere in the book is talking about an interview with Einstein that had taken place earlier; and he quotes some of it. In it the interviewer is asking Einstein about his attitude to religion especially Christianity. Later, in the end, he is asking the great man an important question: "Do you accept the historical existence of Jesus?" Einstein replies:
[COLOR=blue]'Unquestionably! No one can read the Gospels without feeling the actual presence of Jesus. His personality pulsates in every word. No myth is filled with such life'. (pp. 278-279)[/COLOR]
Spiritually, very strong words indeed! '... the actual presence of Jesus .... His personality pulsates in every word ....'. It is a kind of language that tells us that Einstein was 'touched' by Jesus, the Christ.
Einstein sometimes also used to attend a certain church in New York City in order that he could hear something about Jesus and His Healing Power. Christian Science Church (a Church founded by Mrs Mary Baker Eddy) traditionally has, once a week, their 'testimony meeting'; it is on Wednesdays. It is a day that people go to listen to a number of persons who, each at a time, tell the audience about their spiritual experiences, mostly about their being healed from illnesses or being freed from stresses and strains of life through the Love of Christ and His Healing Power. The great man, Einstein, would go and sit among the audience to listen to these spiritual testimonies.
One day as he was leaving the church, one of the members greeted him. Einstein looked at him and said,
[COLOR=blue]"Do you people realize what a wonderful thing you have?" (See Robert Peel, 'Spiritual Healing in a Scientific Age", p.28)[/COLOR]
Although he was born and lived and died as a Jew, Einstein developed a personal relationship with Jesus.
Yes, Einstein was not 'just a spiritual' but 'very much a spiritual' man, and deep in his heart, he was truly a religious man. "

"To what extent are you influenced by Christianity?"
"As a child, I received instruction both in the Bible and in the Talmud. I am a Jew, but I am enthralled by the luminous figure of the Nazarene."
"Have you read Emil Ludwig's book on Jesus?

"Emil Ludwig's Jesus," replied Einstein, "is shallow. Jesus is too colossal for the pen of phrasemongers, however artful. No man can dispose of Christianity with a bon mot." "You accept the historical existence of Jesus?"
"Unquestionably. No one can read the Gospels without feeling the actual presence of Jesus. His personality pulsates in every word. No myth is filled with such life. How different, for instance, is the impression which we receive from an account of legendary heroes of antiquity like Theseus. Theseus and other heroes of his type lack the authentic vitality of Jesus."
"Ludwig Lewisohn, in one of his recent books, claims that many of the sayings of Jesus paraphrase the sayings of other prophets."
"No man," Einstein replied, "can deny the fact that Jesus existed, nor that his sayings are beautiful. Even if some them have been said before, no one has expressed them so divinely as he."
