What? Did Gladys Knight find a fourth Pip?

Revelation: Experts speculate that the tablets could be the lost collection of codices referred to in the Bible's Book Of Revelation....

[Celtic Cross]

Wow. I hope they’re genuine.

[Davidlion]

No one dot or tittle.

[paladin1_dcs]

Very interesting, I wonder what’s in them.

[TaraP]

X marks the spot: The cave in Jordan where the artifacts were discovered

[colorcountry]

Oh my heck! Proof positive that the golden plates truly exist!

</ sarcasm>

[Quix]

I pray this is not a centuries-in-the-works or otherwise hoax.

I pray God’s will and God’s will alone will govern what occurs vis a vis this find.

[Celtic Cross]

Ping. Interesting early Church related find.

[TaraP]

Quix,

I believe they are genuine, all part of GOD’s divine plan to save human beings from eternal destruction...Revelaing his eternal truth in these *Last Days*

More:

Dr Margaret Barker, a former president of the Society for Old Testament Study, said: ‘The Book of Revelation tells of a sealed book that was opened only by the Messiah.

‘Other texts from the period tell of sealed books of wisdom and of a secret tradition passed on by Jesus to his closest disciples. That is the context for this discovery

[paladin1_dcs]

I really wish that people would be a little more careful with this type of stuff. There are no sealed books in Revelation, that verse is in Daniel 12. John was told not to write something, not to write it and seal it up.

I suspect that this is going to turn out to be more reinforcement for the accuracy of the fragments we already have.

Daniel 12:28

Does say GOD will reveal his secrets in latter days.....

[paladin1_dcs]

Boy do I have egg on my face now. I completely forgot about the seven seals that begin the Tribulation period. I really, really, really hope that this isn't that book.

GOD works in Mysterious ways....

‘Other texts from the period tell of sealed books of wisdom and of a secret tradition passed on by Jesus to his closest disciples.

That's Gnosticism, and it is heretical. Although the amount of gnosticism present in today's world is extraordinary. Many people are led astray by the thought that they can get secret wisdom which mere Christians do not have access to.

[paladin1_dcs]

Agreed, Daniel does say that secrets would be revealed in the last days but could this be Daniel’s book? I would think that it’s much too young for that.
