The end of the World is at hand.

RE: The end of the World is at hand.
(August 28, 2009 at 9:22 am)The_Truth Wrote: 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.

No one ever said to you Jesus was a mythical invention of the bible. Many of us are willing to accept the premise that someone named Jesus went around preaching, the question is whether or not his divinity is valid. An earlier church does nothing to prove Jesus's divinity.

Quote: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?

By your standards, the Jews have an edge, because their religion existed way before Christianity. We know that Judaism existed before the 5 Books of Moses, since it's agreed that Moses did not write those books and instead came from about 5 different contributors that were mixed and mashed together to form the final work of the five books. And how about the greek gods? They were worshiped before Christ. Besides, you miss the point, the archeological find is not conclusively said to be an early Christian church. Until it has been proven and widely accepted as such, you're blowing smoke.

Your logic is horribly flawed, an early church, if it is proven to be such, does not prove the truth of Jesus's divinity and the accuracy of the Christian church, only that it may have existed than previously determined. Nothing more

The earliest gospel was written around 70Ad. We know Mark was not an eye witness. And should Jesus have died in 33AD by crucifixion, it is possible eyewitnesses would be dead 40 years later. Life expectancy was not that long 2000 years ago, but it's irrelevant. I honestly don't care if there were eyewitnesses alive then. It's a fact that the gospels are not contemporary evidence for Jesus, and that's the important point.
"The way to see by faith is to shut the eye of reason." Benjamin Franklin
