You have stated on a number of times that Jesus in the NT was an apocalyptic preacher when it has been pointed out to you that that your claim is erroneous. Even Ehrman has claimed the Gospels and the sources for the Gospels are not historically reliable yet you use the NT without corroboration. I really don't know what you call the truth. In the earliest gMark, Jesus preached the Good NEWS of the Kingdom of God. Mark 1 Quote:
Now, please tell us the Truth? Did NOT Jesus in gMark have a PRIVATE discussion about the Apocalypse with FOUR disciples, named John, James, Andrew and Peter? See Mark 13.3 In the earliest Jesus story in gMark Jesus did NOT publicly declare that Jerusalem would be destroyed and that no stone would be left upon one another. |

Earl - this Ehrman book could be a big moment. Might expose your work to a whole new crowd of people?
Hope so. Wishing you all best EZ |

This may be quite useless, but there is a site kindleformatting.com which provides advice about formatting for kindle and sells a book giving detailed instructions. Whether it is any good I don't know. Andrew Criddle |

Secondly it is a Presumption that Jesus called Christ in Antiquities 20.9.1 was from Nazareth, a presumption he was dead, a presumption that his mother's name was Mary. a presumption that he lived in Galilee and baptized by John. Again, HJers have made Presumptions Without evidence and want others to accept their imagination. ApostateAbe does NOT accept the Jesus story in the Canon and want people to BLINDLY accept what he IMAGINES happened. I find this extremely disturbing because the Four Canonised Gospels seem to have been INVENTED using the same methodology of HJers. ApostateAbe seems to think Whatever is imagined is true, the best dreamer is the winner or people who dream the same things are right. We cannot be constantly going the same debunked claims by HJers. No writer in the NT Canon claim Jesus of Nazareth was human with a human father and No non-apologetic source mentioned a character called Jesus of Nazareth. There is NO data in antiquity for the character called HJ of Nazareth who was an Obscure preacher. The phrase "Jesus called Christ" cannot be a biography or a historical account. The phrase "Jesus called Christ" does NOT explain anything about Christianity. Let us stop wasting our time with people who do NOT understand what evidence of antiquity is needed to show that there was an historical Jesus of Nazareth who was an Obscre preacher. HJers NEED a credible source with an ACTUAL BIOGRAPJY of HJ of Nazareth that was an Obscure preacher. No such document exists today. |
