    Shroud of Turin: Absolute proof the man in the Shroud is Jesus Christ

    No, science has not said that. Science has said that there are still questions to be answered.

    Shroud of Turin: Absolute proof the man in the Shroud is Jesus Christ

    Jaques de Molay was the last Grand Knight of the Order of the Knights Templar. At that time the Templars had become the bankers of Europe and both the Papacy and France were heavily indebted to them. The solution was simple. In 1307 the Pope ordered that the Order be disbanded and the knights...

    Coronavirus and End Time Prophecy

    I believe it to be both intellectually and spiritually unhealthy to spend your time in end times speculations. It is far better to live your life in such a way as to make this world a better place not just for the present but into the distant future.

    Are Babies Born With Sin ? (All Bible all the time)

    I was stopped for speeding and the young female officer took my license and ran it and then she played it to the hilt. I received a stern lecture about road safety and then she said "I am Jane Doe I was in your calculus class seven years ago." We had a pleasant chat for about 10 min in her...

    The Real Face of Jesus From the Shroud of Turin. With new information on the blood on the shroud extrapolated using new technology. Fascinating.

    A very good case can be made that this is the shroud of Jaques DeMolay. He was the last Grand Knight of the Knights Templar. When King Phillip of France ordered the Order dismantled (he was heavily in debt to them) in AD 1312, DeMolay was tortured before execution. One of his tortures was to...

    Are Babies Born With Sin ? (All Bible all the time)

    I do not read the Genesis myth as a fall from an original state of perfection into sin and death. The first couple were completely innocent and naive creatures. They were certainly capable of making a mistake but, without knowing good from evil, they lacked even the ability to sin. That ability...

    Do you memorize scripture?

    I am at that time of my life when the entire memory capacity of my brain is used up. To learn anything new is at the cost of an old memory being deleted. This usually happens in a random way. I live in dread of learning something new and forgetting my wife's name.

    Is Sabbath, Saturday or Sunday.

    The early Christian Church was originally no more than another branch of Judaism. They worshipped in temple and synagogue with their Jewish brothers and sisters. In some rare cases, they constituted the majority and were able to control the order of service, readings and such. However, in most...

    Trump wanted to have open unrestricted convention in NC

    Someone on Quora asked “Why do some British people not like Donald Trump?” Nate White, an articulate and witty writer from England wrote the following response: A few things spring to mind. Trump lacks certain qualities which the British traditionally esteem. For instance, he has no class, no...

    Favorite Indian Dishes?

    Ahout 50 years ago I was invited to dinner by an Indian professor. His wife prepared a traditional dish that simply blew my taste buds away but I did recognize that the meat was beef. I asked "As a Hindu don't you consider the cow to be sacred?" He laughed and said "That was a Canadian cow not...

    The Old Covenant and the New Covenant are the same Law..

    There are contradictions found in the three versions of the Ten Commandments contained in the Bible (Exodus 34:1-28, Exodus 20:1-17, Deuteronomy 5:1-21). How can all three versions be true if they are not the same? Exodus 34, the oldest version at about 950 BC, is from the pen of the “J” or...

    Christ and the Ten Commandments

    The Athanasian Creed is one of the most confusing pieces of writing in history. It was written leaning heavily on the language of Greek philosophy and is almost incomprehensible to modern readers. Even if, like myself, you have some training in Greek philosophy it remains a challenge...

    What about the Greek Septuagint?

    Messiah means literally "anointed one" and was the common way in which the Jews referred to kings of the dynasty of David. "Anointed" refers of course to the method of investiture of the Jewish kings. It translated into the Greek as "Christos". The Jews regarded themselves as a "theocracy"... a...

    What about the Greek Septuagint?

    The Septuagint was a translation of the Jewish scriptures about two centuries before Jesus. At that time the Hebrew language was dying and being supplanted by Greek. The suggestion that it was forged by the RCC is simply ludicrous and is not even worthy of debate.
