Nope.
Again, you are wrong. It's weird how frequently you are wrong.
Thirty-eight of the thirty-nine books of the Protestant Old Testament are represented among the Dead Sea Scrolls. None of the 27 books of the New Testament have been conclusively identified. There has been some speculation that some very small, very fragmented pieces of scroll are from the New Testament; four fragments from Mark and one each from Acts, Romans, 1 Timothy, and James. This view is not generally accepted by scroll scholars however, and remains a fringe theory. Source
What do the Dead Sea Scrolls say about Jesus? Nothing. What do they say about the world in which Jesus lived? Lots.
The Dead Sea Scrolls are comprised primarily of two types of texts: parts of the Hebrew Bible (Old Testament) and sectarian works written by the small group (or groups) of Jews who lived at Qumran. The scrolls date from the mid-third century B.C.E. until the mid-first century C.E. Source
"List of the Dead Sea Scrolls" Source ((Sorry for this one...but I am really trying to lift your spirits!))
It is a commonplace that every book of the Hebrew Bible except Esther has been found among the Dead Sea Scrolls. Actually, this is true only if you count Ezra-Nehemiah as one book—as, indeed, it is so regarded in Jewish tradition—since only a fragment of Ezra, but not Nehemiah, has been identified. But why not Esther? Some have suggested theological reasons: Esther is not a particularly religious book; it lacks any interest in Judah and its cultic institutions; and it has a sympathetic view toward the gentile King Ahasuerus. Moreover, it is the only book of the Hebrew... Source
((Maybe when you see the word "Hebrew", you think of the N.T. Book you have so many doubts about?))
It is worth emphasizing at the start that no New Testament passages occur in the Dead Sea Scrolls and the Jewish group that settled at Qumran was not Christian.[3] These are Jewish religious texts collected and studied by certain Jews at the turn of the era. But they have much to offer for our study of the Christian New Testament. Source ((not a source I would normally use, but still... you need all the help you can get.))
I judge your failures in light of truth and Truth. You need to study harder. I'm not intending to insult you but your misrepresentations can't all go unanswered. Otherwise, some people can be misled by you. Everyone deserves the truth.
You may be 100 percent correct.
I report - you decide.
Thank You for the information... It’s been years since I researched this and my memory is not what it used to be. I thought they found New Testament documents in Cave 7.
I may have confused this with the Codex Vaticanus from 325 to 350 AD. That is the manuscript where the Book of Hebrews end at 9:13.
I attended a lecture by Bart Ehrman a few years ago at UNC and he spoke about Cave 7 and the New Testament. I don’t agree with his scriptural interpretation, but his historical manuscript information is pretty good.
In the morning when my mind is fresh, I will go back and dig into this for more detail.
Thank you again for challenging my statement on this.
Except those who will now have no hit pieces to post on FR now that Francis won't be around to bash and kvetch about any more.
...yet true, because PoPo seemed to embrace a variety of “gods” besides the One True GOD.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>...
Yep, no question about it. Pope Croak coming soon!
Given how Nicholas treated Arius, I doubt that Francis would care to encounter him, . . .
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>.
By the way, did you hear about the archeologists who recently reported they believe they’ve discovered the grave of Nicholas? I believe they were excavating somewhere in eastern Turkey.
So, who are the front runners to replace him?
Karma for giving Joe Biden communion.

And for faithfully serving as Satan’s Pope doing everything possible to finish the destruction of the Church that began on the first day of the Second Vatican Council.
put his trust in the Jesus of the Bible.

Jesus of the Bible?
Luke 21:8 And he said, “See that you are not led astray. For many will come in my name, saying, ‘I am he!’ and, ‘The time is at hand!’ Do not go after them.
“I, Jesus, have sent My angel to give you this testimony for the churches. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, the bright Morning Star. (Revelation 22:16)
Funny! I had a Sister Margaret Mary.
They'll probably get a few weeks/months worth complaining about the process and those who get to elect the next one. Who knows...maybe the next one will be even WORSE!
Well, I don’t see how the next one could help being better, but you never know. The RCC hierarchy hasn’t failed to surprise us yet.
That will be a relief!
The tide is out.
I’m sure his replacement won’t be much better.
It would not surprise me in the least.
