Roman Catholic armies were beating back the Muslim hordes at the gates of Vienna and the fleets were doing the same at the gates of Venice. And let's not forget slaughtering the Huguenots.

I was just thinking that in it’s day, if you heated that plate up good and hot, and placed a couple of slices of bread on it, it probably could produce a good grilled cheese sandwich.

The archaeologists estimate the 8.6-inch paten is from the fourth century C.E. When discussing history regarding Jesus Christ, it is downright OFFENSIVE to refer to it as "C.E.".

There’s a more specific reference among the prophets about them plucking his beard, which I couldn’t find right now, but Leviticus 19 forbids Jewish men from trimming their beards.

Found it! “I gave my back to those who strike, and my cheeks to those who pull out the beard; I hid not my face from disgrace and spitting.” (Isa 50:6)”

Grilled cheese sandwich with an image of Jesus.... people will come from all over the world to pray to it. lol so eat it quickMaria Orosco, a 78-year-old mother of two, had just finished making herself a homemade tortilla shell when she says she saw the face of Christ materialize in the shell along with three large paragraphs of what appeared to be Hebrew text. Orosco then covered the vision with beans, wrapped it up and ate it. "I was hungry," Orosco explained to a throng of reporters following the incident. "This is Mexico. Food doesn't exactly grow on trees".... ....The reaction from Biblical scholars around the world has manifested itself in a collective expression of utter disbelief. "We're not talking about some tears on a statue here. This is like if the archaeologists had blown their noses with the Dead Sea Scrolls," said an exasperated Ian Rothchild of the Association of International Bible Scholars. "There's no telling what this message could have beenclarification of the book of Revelation, an answer to predestination versus free will or even a clear message to the Amish to stop living in the past. This woman should be thrown in jail."

Stands for Current Era as opposed to BCE which means Before The Current Era. It’s just the secular world’s way of not acknowledging Yashua.

Instead of depicting Jesus, Peter and Paul, it may be Jesus, Moses, and Elias, as in Matthew 17 verses 1 thru 4.
To: NYer
THEY may believe it’s Christ, but I’ll take it with a pound or two of salt. Who, of those who saw and knew and lived with Christ would have pictorially recorded His Likeness?
It was forbidden in the Jewish heart and mind to make graven images. All the ORIGINAL Christians were of Jewish extraction.
The clincher for me is: This flies crosswise of the image on the Shroud of Turin. No sale!
