However a scientist saying the "believe" it to be the first Christian church is far different from concluding that it was.They found artifacts such as coins, pottery, and stone seating arrangements. Very familiar with other Christian Churches in nearby areas. Except this Church predates all others. This proves 'Christ Worship' predates the Bible by a few decades. This puts to rest the theory that atheists claim. Jesus was a mythical invention in the bible.
Quote:Furthermore, you did not meet void's criteria. If this church is in fact what the archeologists say it is, it does not prove the validity of Christianity, only that there were earlier Christians than previously thought. Nothing more.He asked for one single piece of evidence that proves Christianity rises above all others. I have shown evidence of Christ worship existing long before the Bible was written. If you can find evidence of people worshipping Allah long before the Koran was written, I would love to see it.
This discovery proves Jesus Christ existed, and he was worshipped as a God, as the bible claims.
This amazing discovery should have you thinking. Were the Gospels actually telling the truth about this man (who left behind no evidence of his existence)?
Secondly, eyewitnesses from Jesus' era would have declined the Gospels (55AD) as false information.
Unless you believe all of the eyewitnesses from 33 were dead by the time the Gospels were written?
