It was a long time second-coming. After years of searching, Italian archaeologists have discovered an ancient site that matches a Bible description of where Jesus Christ was buried, per a preliminary study in the Jerusalem archaeological journal Liber Annuus. “We have found evidence of a funerary landscape,” lead archaeologist Francesca Romana Stasolla, of the “La Sapienza” University of Rome, told the Daily Mail as part of an exclusive article. The researchers had been excavating Jerusalem’s Church of the Holy Sepulchre, a fourth century Roman Church that was built over a holy site where many Christians believe Christ was crucified, buried...

United Methodist Church Pastor Adam Hamilton catapulted onto the national stage after his Democratic primary win last month in the race to represent Kansas in the U.S. Senate.

Roger Marshall, says he's reaching out to conservative Evangelical voters as part of his “Leading From the Middle” statewide tour. The founding pastor of Resurrection Church in Leawood, Hamilton has positioned himself as an alternative to Marshall, who also identifies as a Christian and was elected to the Senate in 2020.

Digital ID: Billionaires are CIRCLING your digital life - it's time to WAKE UP

The technology allows you to share a minimum level of information to prove identity by tapping your phone on a reader or scanning a QR code . Some states allow digital IDs and drivers licenses to be added directly into your mobile wallet. Others offer a state-backed mobile app. But privacy experts have concerns around digital security and government data collection, warning that frictionless identification could lead to things like increased surveillance pricing.

Police Confronts UK Street Preacher for THIS 😱🤯‼️

Editor's Note: This column was coauthored by Bob Morrison. President Obama's choice to be Director of Central Intelligence (DCI) was approved by the Senate on a vote of 63-34, with thirteen Republicans voting to confirm him. Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) created quite a stir with his 13-hour filibuster against the Brennan nomination. Not until he received written assurances from Attorney General Eric Holder that U.S. citizens would not be targeted for killing by drones on U.S. soil would the doughty Kentuckian stand down. Good for him. John Brennan then proceeded to take the Oath of Office, as administered by Vice...

The Giants president of baseball operations met with reporters Tuesday at Oracle Park and opened with a brief statement acknowledging that fans had “strong feelings” about the issue. But when follow-up questions came, Posey repeatedly shut them down. “I’ll answer baseball questions,” Posey said. That did not go over well. The controversy began on June 12, when Giants pitchers Landen Roupp, J.T. Brubaker and Ryan Walker wrote Bible verse references on their Pride Night caps. A fourth pitcher, Sam...

People in China pay using their hand — but how? All you have to do is hover your hand over the POS terminal, which uses infrared cameras to scan your palm. Beforehand, you have to use a device that registers your palm print and vein pattern and connects it to your bank card.
