Dear St Robert,

We due respect, (and please don't take this personal)you seem so sure of what you are saying and writing that I have difficulties believing you are a "scientist". A scientist and engineer in my book (which is not holy I can assure you) constantly questions todays and yesterdays truth. You are bogged down by a book written anything from 3000 to 1500 years ago.
The book has not been tested and although it has been subject to peer review, the findings of this peer review have been rejected.
Scientist??

This final convenant gave birth to the church. Just as the Jews broke the earlier convenants with God, so shall the church lose faith under increased pressure from the non-believer. There are numerous examples of this lack of faith by the church since it began. If you are interested in knowing which church is the right one, Jesus describes the true church in John chapters 3 and 4.</strong>

Besides the Bible or yourself, please quote one reliable source for your information. Just the source please, no prosthelytizing.

Seems to me that when that 'biblical prophecy' was written, even then the author knew eventually it would be discovered there were no facts in the writing.
