A group of 70 or so "books", each with between five and 15 lead leaves bound by lead rings, was apparently discovered in a remote arid valley in northern Jordan somewhere between 2005 and 2007. A flash flood had exposed two niches inside of a cave, one marked with a candlestick, and one with the ancient Jewish menorah. The books, or "codices", were apparently cast in lead, before being bound by lead rings.Their leaves - which are mostly about the size of a credit card - contain text in Ancient Hebrew, most of which is in code. The relics feature signs early Christians would have interpreted as Jesus, and makes reference to Him as the Messiah. The find is significant in the fact that this very well could be the earliest works of Christianity\early Saints and not just in scroll form but book form. Even becoming more significant than the Dead Sea Scrolls. In one of the squares there appears to be a Menorah which Jews were forbidden to represent because it resided in the Holy of Holies. In otherwards, Jesus being equal with the presence of God.

A "1.8 Million" year old skull found in the Republic of Georgia" (Minus the millions of years) From MSNBC:" Putting together the pieces of a "1.8 million-year-old" skull from the country of Georgia has led researchers to a surprising conclusion: Specimens that supposedly represent several early human species might be merely different-sized individuals from the same species.If the conclusion holds up, the skull discovery would require a major rewrite for the story of early human evolution. Such species as Homo habilis and Homo rudolfensis, long a part of humanity's "bushy" family tree, could be folded into a wide-ranging species known as Homo erectus."**Homo Erectus (**Human that walks upright**) OF COURSE this is true because these supposed ancestors are all HUMAN. God CREATED man! There is ZERO evidence for ape to man evolution, and discoveries like this continue to show us that. And once again, evolution is going to undergo another revision. When will they wake up and open their eyes?!** Knowledge of Israel’s history is important if one is to understand the message of the Old Testament. Both message and history are inseparably intertwined. Israel’s history is divinely ordained as preparatory for the coming of Christ. One cannot understand Him without knowing of those events, which called for and led to His coming. Archaeology is a tool that can help one understand biblical history better.- For example, The Siloam Inscription ties together both King Hezekiah from 2 Kings 20:20 and Jesus in John chapter 9 over 700 years later. On April 6, 1980, Adam Zertal, Ph.D, Prof. Of Archeology, Univ. of Haifa was doing a formal archaeological survey of the traditional lands of Manasseh and discovered a Hebrew Altar that dated to 1250 BC. Using pottery to date the site Zertal said: "More important, however, is that they [the pottery] fix a date for the construction of the altar - approximately 1250 B.C.E." The site at Mt. Ebal had two occupation levels. Zertal calls the older occupation "level II" which he dates 1300 BC and the younger level I to 1250 BC.If this site is no older than 1300 BC, then none of it could be built by Joshua, because the exodus took place in 1400 BC. However this is a Hebrew altar built during the time of Deborah the Judge and underneath we believe is the actual altar of Joshua that should be dated to 1400 BC since a scarab from Tuthmosis III was found but wrongly dated to 1250 BC. We agree that there are clearly two occupation levels. The rectangular altar we see today was built about 1250 BC. The 6.5 foot circular stone structure with burnt kosher bones inside is located directly beneath the rectangular altar and was built about 1400 BC by Joshua. Scientists have been struck by how the laws that govern the universe are delicately balanced. One scientist used the analogy of a room full of dials (each representing a different physical constant). All of the dials are set perfectly. Move any dial to the left or to the right and you no longer have the universe. Some scientists have even called the universe a “Goldilocks universe” because all of the physical constants are “just right.” Verified by archaeologists. The top is burned black by forces unknown as can be seen in the photo. It's not volcanic either. At the base of the mountain is a makeshift altar with images of calves on it that are only native to Egypt. There is a giant rock split in half at the base of the mountain where water marks can be seen that clearly came from the rock. Moses tapped the rock and water flowed from it as we know from scripture. There is even a cave half way up the mountain that's associated with Aaron. Everything that is mentioned in the Bible regarding this account matches this location. Watch this video. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-mB5Aw14e4M High on the Andes mountains you can find whale fossils as well as other marine life. In 1987 it was reported in the New York times by scientists that the uplift period of the Andes mountains was actually quick. We of course know this. Due to Noah's flood, the Earth went through a violent catastrophic change that formed the mountains we have today. Everything that had died on the ocean floor was lifted along with what became mountains. This is also evidenced by folded strata on mountain peaks which indicate they were wet when formed. Scientists realize that planet Earth has extremely rare conditions that allow it to support life at a time when most of the universe is uninhabitable. Consider just these six conditions: (1) Life must be in the right type of galaxy, (2) life must be in the right location in the galaxy, (3) life must have the right type of star, (4) life must have the right relationship to the host star, (5) life needs surrounding planets for protection, and (6) life requires the right type of moon. And this is just the beginning! Three thousand years ago the Hindu scriptures recorded the earth was resting on the backs of several huge elephants. The elephants were resting on the back of a very large turtle that was swimming in a sea. Greek mythology claims that the god Atlas was holding the earth on his shoulders. But our Bible says in Job 26:7 — "[God] hangeth the earth on nothing." What a remarkable statement of fact. The earth is suspended in space. Nothing is holding it up. Job wrote about the same time the Hindu Scripture was written. How did Job know this scientific fact? Only God could have revealed this to Job. The Old Testament prophets wrote as they were moved by the holy Spirit (2 Peter 1:21). The Bible is the inspired Word of God |
