Many thanks.
The folks who eat the daily bowls of YOPIOS very often get it so very wrong in very comical fashion. If it weren’t so serious, that is.

I agree -- Mark is to be commended for his patience.
The argument so far, for those who came late :)
Iscool: Antioch is in Syria
Mark: Not really, it's in Turkey
Dr E: Ha HA! {posts some strange details from some strange obscure website (that's like the other anti-Church screed websites, all falsehoods, mostly laughable)
Mark: Antioch is not in Syria. The map you posted does not show the borders. And it does not claim that Antioch is in Syria.
As in your Scriptural proofs, your map does not show what you claim it shows. Any more than your snippets of Scripture taken out of context mean what you say that they mean.
Iscool: Well, since the scripture doesn't cut it, and the historical maps don't cut it, will you show us the relevant section of your catechism that shows us where THAT Antioch is at??? (font color = "blue">(now arguing that the catechism should have a geography lesson)
Mark: The CIA Factbook or any non Calvinist world map does very well. The current spelling is Antakya, in case you have difficulties.
Iscool: ( is this a deviation? ) What was the spelling 2000 years ago when it was written in the scriptures???
Iscool: ( is this deviating again? ) Oh, I get it...You think the only Antioch in existance at the time was in modern day Turkey... Well guess what...Im about 40 miles from Berlin...But it aint in Germany...Imagine that...
Mark: ( Still astonishingly calm ) Ἀντιόχεια ἡ ἐπὶ Δάφνῃ You surely didn't think that it was written in English in your KJV that Jesus and the Apostles taught from, did you?
Mark: How many Antiochs do you think were scattered around the world of the Bible? Antioch, South Africa? Antioch, South Dakota? Antioch, Planet Mars? Antioch, the Andromeda Cluster?
=====================
Phew!! Talk about running around in circles!! But that's about par for the course for a normal anti-Church screed (post randomness from obscure website and then jump around)
