I wonder if paul's sexual confusion had any impact on his pov.According to Paul..........
Yah, James and the church in Jerusalem had a bit of a different take.
As a deist, I believe Jesus existed but not the way his followers have organized themselves.
last time I checked dead is dead..hell and heaven are both imaginary...As a deist, I believe Jesus existed but not the way his followers have organized themselves.
That is nice, but if Jesus is not the Christ, then we are all still dead in sin and will go to hell when we die.

no more than yours.. the difference is I understand that we make meaning, it's not giving to us by a sky faire.last time I checked dead is dead..hell and heaven are both imaginary...That is nice, but if Jesus is not the Christ, then we are all still dead in sin and will go to hell when we die.
As is your purpose in life.
24,000 written manuscripts say otherwise.I don't dispute that Jesus existed. Besides those references in the OP's link, there's the fact that James, the brother of Jesus, existed; so by inference.... The problem is the opening phrase in the link, "Although there is overwhelming evidence that the New Testament is an accurate and trustworthy historical document." The NT, and the Bible, are loaded with contradictions and unreliable hear-say evidence.
We shouldn't even be calling it Christianity, since it's a total pagan re-write that should be called Paulism.
BTW, it's all but a given that they've found Jesus' grave and bones in Talpiot near Jerusalem. If that does stand up, it will show that Jesus, and John the Baptist, weren't trying to start a new religion, not even a new Jewish sect, they were just trying to cleanse the Temple, which brought about their deaths as heroic martyrs--nothing more.
St. Paul said otherwise.This interpretation helps explain the Christian claim that the meal was merely food of an ordinary and innocent kind.
St. Paul said otherwise.
Ok. I wasn't criticizing you or Pliny. I was arguing that the early Christians did not think they were eating just bread and drinking just wine.Pliny wrote that. Not me.

There were apparently several guys named Jesus preaching in the area at the time. No proof of any miracles, though. Or is there?
Right. But there's a third option he never considered which is it is the body and blood of Christ and it's not cannibalism. It's a concept as mysterious as God Himself. Speaking from personal experience communion is a powerful trans-formative phenomenon. It's how I share in His suffering and it alters the fabric of my existence.Well, Pliny seems to be softening the accusation of cannibalism...
And yet here you are discussing it.Anyone who believe the events and slaughter in the old testement is a near complete idiot. If they read anything from a ministry which attempts to prove God exists, they then become a complete idiot.
Enjoy.
