Written sources for Christianity outside the Bible (Interesting Stuff for all Christians)

Facing The Challenge ^ | Unknown | David Couchman?

However, there are at least half a dozen non-Christian (that is to say Roman or Jewish) sources that refer to Christian origins. These are sufficient to provide some confirmation of the historical picture that is painted by the Bible. Some of the most important of these sources are: Tacitus, Pliny the Younger, Suetonius, The Babylonian Talmud, Josephus, and the letter of Mara Bar-Serapion.

All hearsay. None were alive to witness anything to do with Jesus of Nazareth.

“All hearsay. None were alive to witness anything to do with Jesus of Nazareth”.

This, from the guy who can't distinguish between Julius Caesar and Caesar Augustus.

Whenever Christians look for proof, they cheapen their faith.

“Whenever Christians look for proof, they cheapen their faith”.

Well, I guess our Saviour thought us to be cheap converts,
since he performed so many miracles in order to give that terrible thing called proof to our reason (which He created to be used)so we could believe in His Divinity.

Big bump for Jesus.

Sister, believe in miracles based on faith and faith alone!

Whenever Christians look for proof, they cheapen their faith.

That is similar to the pattern of old moth-eaten lines which liberals use to diminish the facts in the Bible.

Its an old trick that leftists use for political purposes, but it only serves to reveal the shallowness of the liberal.

God says we have a reasonable faith, God cannot lie.

Men lie, distort and manipulate especially those who have no fear or respect of God's judgment.

[GonzoII]

“reasonable faith”

There is a verse like that somewhere, do you know where?
