Thank you so much for all of your efforts! I am a non-denominational Christian and I have been doing heavy research lately, not because I doubt my faith however, to expose the truth to others and spread the Gospel. Recently as well have been debunking Islam and my gf who was muslim as of yesterday pledged her loyalty to Christ. She came home. Which is beautiful. Not only did she see the evidence that I presented to her plus other finding from other sources, historical evidence, scientic evidence and her own spiritual encounter. Jesus is King! Jesus is our savior! Thank you again!
What amazing news of soul-winning!!! Adding to the Kingdom!
Amen!!
What leads you to imagine you could be able to be able to be a christian, or have any idea at all what it*means* to be a christian, or have any idea what conditions must be satisfied for you to be able to call yourself a christian?
What a great time for Christianity -- when we have two professors enlightening us and linking archaeological evidence of the validity of the gospels. Thank you for your diligence!
I'm no Mythicist however, I'm very skeptical there's archeological evidence of Jesus of Nazareth.
@@howareyou139 You expect them to have such artifacts on hand?
@@howareyou139 He cites Josephus writing about Corenius (so?) being involved in a "tax accounting". Granted that's historical evidence and not archeological evidence however, you claimed there was no evidence without qualification
I suspect as I watch the rest of the video , there will be archeological evidence cited as well
I suspect you're resorting to a trope, commonly appealed to by people born after 1977, of conflating evidence in general with absolute proof.
Saying there is evidence isn't the same as claiming there is slam dunk proof.
@@howareyou139 My hunch was correct. He did cite archeological evidence at the 3:59. Well, one of those pieces of evidence where archeology and history overlap, a Latin encription.
@@howareyou139 He also cited archeological population surveys. I've heard that evidence before.
Esther your listening comprehension sucks or you're a liar.
I really think if your listening comprehension sucked that much, you would know sucks. If you know your listening comprehension sucks that much, you were pretending to know something you couldn't possibly know . That makes you a list as well
Thank you alot of my questions and doubts were answered. God bless your ministry and all the work you do!
Glad to help!
If that be right you are clearly entirely innocent of any kind or form of intellectual ability or accomplishment or you would recognise that" archaeological evidence " for" (sic) jesus is semantic gibberish and factual nonsense for there cannot be archaeological evidence "for"(sic) anyone; archaeological evidence for" (sic) is arrant nonsense, and semantically null - conveys nothing.
Archaeological evidence for jesus, my arse! those creatures are clearly halfwits, but that is to be expected with kinderlander.
Few but half- witted kinderlander would venture to suppose that the could possibly be"archaeological evidence for(or even of-which makes more sense, *Anyone*. There can_only be evidence for a particular assertion, proposition or thesis- not a particular person. Put the case or suppose that there once existed Fred, or Jon Doe. How(in terms of semantics or meaning) could there *Ever* be archaeological evidence of evidence either for or of either?
To anyone that is not an halfwit or imbecile , to ask that question is to answer it, particularly if whoever understands that hearsay can *Never_Ever* constitute, or amount to evidence it being forensically wightless and insignificant.
Must the supposed or soi disant christians(of course there*are_none* scrape the bottom of the barrel and go:"Ah the gospels mention a town or village and the time of day or any geographical feature * t-h-e-r-e-f-o-r-e jesus- the tacit assumption or premise being that otherwise there is not a single shred of evince that the fellow ever existed, which is certainly perfectly true. There is or are places called Jerusalem or Nazareth *therefore jesus is more than a bit desperate or strained, it positively_screams * the tacit premise that there is no reason to suppose there ever was such a creature; desperate cherry-picking of that sort positively bellows that that the existence of jesus is in doubt, but it also reveals a certain sort intellectual deficit leading to the utterly absurd supposition that the truth or validity of the proposition that the sum of two and two is four is entirely contingent on there having been a certain X that once declared the sum of two and two to be four.
If it is indeed that case that the best way to go from one to ten is via the intervening numbers it is is *screamigly_obvious* that the truth of that assertion is made out regardless of whether or not, whoever made that assertion ever existed (and regardless of the characteristics of whoever asserted that the best way to go from one to ten is via 2, 3.4,5,56,7, 8 and nine or if he or she ever existed, and only a complete imbecile halfwit or possibly kinderlander might suppose otherwise. If what X said or says is true why the fcuk does it matter or signify that there was or may have been an X. If a particular map is of assistance in my getting from A to B, why the fcuk might I give a shit whether or not the map -maker was a jolly decent chap ore even existed? However if the map- maker tells me that a one-eyed three-legged donkey-Criplon will win the Epsom Derby, I will not wager on Criplon wining that race simply and *Only because said map-maker turned out reliable maps..*Of_course there neither is nor could be any evidence that any being dead for the best part of three thousand years hsvingever existed because there cannot be any such evidence that*Anyone dead for nearly three thousand years ever existed, be they Fred Tom, Dick Harry Mary or Enid ; at that remove no witness could possibly be alive. Anything purporting to be or advanced as, evidence that cannot be tested can *never* amount to evidence because evidence that cannot be tested is worthless or weightless and the worthless or weightless can*Never* amount to, or constitute evince.
At about marker 24.00 Dr Kennedy adds some information re the Sanhedrin having moved to the southern side of the Temple Mt. about 30AD.
I read a fascinating article years ago that stated that the Sanhedrin had originally met in a room abutting the actual Temple, but at the time of the Crucifixion when the earthquake struck and the Temple veil was torn, a large part of the overhead structure above the Sanhedrin rooms, collapsed - thereby forcing them to convene elsewhere i.e to a south-western corner room of the southern portico
That is interesting, I love the little quarks in history.
Dr. Titus seems too not be driven by an emotional prejudice but a genuine goal to delve into truth🙌🏻
Hahahahahaha

Yes, his sincerity and humility shine through, in wonderful contrast to so many of all points of view.
Hallelujah Amen, Accept the Truth (Jesus Christ) and Truth will set you free hallelujah Amen 🙏🏻✝️
Very thorough and logical analysis - supporting the FACT that Jesus Is Lord!
All Elect firstborn sons of the spirit of YHWH are Lords. There is only one LORD and thats YHWH. Rev. 21:7, Rev. 3:21. All firstborn sons are eloheim, but YHWH is the only Elohiem. Knowing greek and hebrew is imperative in understanding the true gospel.
I really enjoyed this conversation. I'm not scholar, but I'd like to share some wisdom I've been blessed with. Searching for "evidence " of the authenticity of the Gospels will only reveal so much. I believe whole heartedly that God will not allow proof without belief. God's objective in creating us is to establish true love between Him, the Creator, and His creation. If God is proven, we cannot choose to believe, or more importantly, to love Him. It is comforting as a believer to see the archeological discovery of the places and times depicted in the scriptures. But do not hang your believe upon the evidence unveiled, or the lack there of. If in your heart you TRULY believe, He will show Himself to you. I look forward to the day of the Lord where we will all laugh on the side of glory. Until then, I pray God's peace and love to you all! Blessings!
I believe I was meant to read this.... All glory to the Father.... Praise Jesus
Very informative and interested. Thank you for sharing.
Jesus is Lord.
I'm such a archaeological geek who loves this. Great interview.
So do I, but, I'm just beginning. If it's possible, could you recommend me some sources about it? Thank you in advance. God bless you.
Please compare the evidence to any of the available studies and there thousands if not millions publications about Jesus from an archaeological prospective and you will change your mind about this person.
this is breathtakingly disingenuous.
these claims are historical fiction.
they sound so authoritative propping up a specious argument supporting their delusional beliefs.
the real history does not support this nonsense.
@@melemeiryify No matter how many publications about Jesus there are, there is still no demonstrable evidence that he was a god.
@@andreafitzgerald4609 there is not enough archeological evidence to prove he wasn't god either. But then again, I am not sure archeology finds those sort of answers. Can archeology prove Jeffrey Dahmer was a cannibal? We can look and date the paperwork that convicted him of the crime, but ultimately it will rely on faith.
Excellent interview; thanks for not interrupting!!
No one needs to prove to me there is a God ...He lives in my heart..He made me a better person when I laid down my sins for his mighty love and forgiveness...
Yes AMEN
I agree, but I don’t think that’s what the goal is here. The goal is to “have an answer” or to “be ready always to give an answer to every man who asketh you a reason for the hope that is in you, with meekness and fear.” Part of that “answer” is the historical arguments and such.
Thank you for making it possible for us to watch this. What a great conversation in illuminating us about the gospels. Thank you.🙏🙏🙏
Really enjoyed every second! Well done for the clear explanations given.
Heavenly Guide, I seek your wisdom as I journey through life's uncertainties. Illuminate my path with your divine light, so I may make choices that align with your purpose for me. Amen.
Thanks Sean may God bless for staying true to the word and your dad
I appreciate that
Thank you for a well-organized presentation and giving the areas/topics where we can do more reading to get the details. I look forward to your book!
Praise the Lord that people are going to and fro, knowledge is increasing (just like the Book of Daniel says), and the truth that Jesus was and is and is to come is being revealed. So much has been uncovered in the last 20 to 30 years through archeologists' findings. Amazing! Great interview!
True
Children born were also named as Jesus during His time and afterwards.They had family life and decendents.Not Christ who is saviour of World. Please note🙏
The middle East was the epitome of going to and fro and you don't think that whoever wrote that saw all the new things that were being discovered wow we made a wheel knowledge increased 🤣🤣🤣 Nostradamus made better predictions than the Bible I think 🤔🤔🤔 I made a prediction that we would have a female vice president does that make me aGod or just a lucky guess????
Why are we talking about Josephus when the title is archeology that proves Jesus Josephus was a historian that didn't even live during the time of Jesus!
Desperation
Capabilities for knowledge has increased. Knowledge has decreased. Per person. There's far more blind ignorant people today. Than 100 year's ago.
Excited to get Dr Kennedy's book. I gifted his other book twice, but had not gotten it for myself yet. So, I cannot wait to get the book mentioned here. What a wonderful interview!
But could they have gotten some things wrong? check out my comment above.
This book is joke.,...
You know I listened to what you were saying, but I remember what Jesus said to his deciples. He said you see me now ,handle my feet and hands ,but blessed are those though they don't see me yet they know and understand I don't need proof of Jesus for when my life was filled with grief . He reached down and I felt His gentle touch as the tears rolled down my cheek. You see l lost every thing my home , my family I was all alone frightened .then I felt that gentle touch deep within my heart , for this is when I accepted my lord and Savior as my own. Yes I've made mistakes over the years then fell to my knees in prayer and Jesus gentle touch reassured me that He is always there . So I don't need proof of Jesus ,He is always in my heart. He is coming back to this old world and I am ready to depart. No more sadness ,no more hardships , no more pain ,no more tears. For I don't need proof of Jesus He has always and still is near.
Thank you very much for this amazing work❤ . Blessed Easter for everyone! 😊
there never was EASTER. That started with the Catholic Church ❤
Lord you are the king of kings and lord of lord's Jesus christ yeshua messiah my lord and my God amen. King Jesus christ the son of God is coming back soon to judge the world.
That was so interesting. Thanks Dr Sean & Dr Titus. I thoroughly enjoyed this. God bless you both
Really good questions were asked in this interview. I think it was a debris clearing consideration of some of the archaeological discoveries associated with Jesus! Thank you gentlemen. The stones still cry out as another archaeologist once pointed out. Some choose to remain "stone deaf" while others have their hearts of stone brought to vibrant life. Answers usually take digging and yes, faith can be excavated! The geography fits (having been to Israel I can attest to this), the cultural situ fits, the Gospel stories fit and the archaeology fits. There are yet other discoveries that come to mind in addition to the ones mentioned and I look forward to digging deeper into what appears will be an "X"ellent read! Hmmmm... An "X" does indeed mark the spot! :) ... Blessings!
But could they have gotten some things wrong? check out my comment above.
Thank you for a very informative and sensible account of the archeological evidence supporting the story of Jesus Christ’s life described by the Gospel. Thank you for a gripping conversation.
when does he pick up his Nobel Prize?
This titus kenndy guy looks like a Chad. Respect bro especially doing work for the ,krd👍🏻🙏🏻
I appreciate that!
Thank you for all.
May you be well.
I love this. Though I do not need it, it is interesting to hear. I guess some people might need to hear to believe. For them, I am thankful that they can come to Christ.
a wonderful conversation. May the Lord bless you abundantly. very sound work
Dr. Sean's program grows on me. Whenever Satan plans a negative thought all I have to do is pray first and look at the scriptures and those who support sound Bible and archaeological research. God bless you and P.T.L. ALWAYS
Satan, eh? I have a question for you, which Epicurus expressed a whole lot more succinctly 2000 years ago:
Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent.
Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent.
Is he both able and willing? Then why does evil exist?
Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God?
@@OslerWannabe he’s willing and able. Doesn’t mean it doesn’t happen
@@OslerWannabe your ignorance is overwhelming: God doesn't operate according to man's limited knowledge !
@@OslerWannabe 1) God is Sovereign , He has the right to allow what we deem as bad things to happen , for a greater good in the outcome ; example the crucifixion of Christ , God allowed it for the greater good , being the salvation of mankind
2) God never promised bad things would not happen in this life , but He promises never to forsake those who are His through it
If evil happens then God is either unwilling or unable to stop it
Very interesting.
Thanks for posting this.
Thank you both. Happy Easter!
Easter is pagan.
Very interesting! I never heard all this before.
Wife and I watched. Very well done. Another relic is discussed by a 38 year Nuclear Engineer you tube video titled "Hypothesis to Explain the Main Mysteries of the Shroud of Turin" and the carbon dating is explained with a theory on nuclear radiation. Worth listening to. Evidence should hold in any Court in the Land beyond a reasonable doubt. Judge for yourself.
I visited the Church of the Holy Sepulchre in 1968 when working on a kibbutz and my abiding memory was how close of the place of crucifixion was to the tomb - I couldn't believe that people would want a tomb so close to where people were put to death.
I think it was partly a matter of time as the Sabbath drew close they had to hurry to get him to the tomb before Sabbath hit. The real tomb is outside of Jerusalem. I saw Golgatha and the tomb just outside of the Damascus Gate.
@@katharden5806does Golgotha still look as much like a skull as it did in that black and white photo from over a hundred years ago?
Jerusalem changed so much before Constantine..The church of the holy sepulchre could not have been built before his time..And it wouldhave been difficult to trace the place by that time especially since the Christians would have had to flee following persecutions
There is evidence by locals that says that is not the actual place where he was in tombed heard from a guy that visited both places saying he felt noting at the seplacir but had a strong emotional reaction when showed the actual tomb and he had no idea that's where he was being taken at the time
Awesome, be blessed
WOW! I knew about some of this, but some of it was new to me, and mindblowing!
I love this information!!!!
And they say there’s no archeological evidence for Jesus , excellent!Good job Sean-and Titus !
In Luke's account of the census, Lk 2:2 specifically says, "This was the FIRST census that took place while Quirinius was governor of Syria." A FIRST census implies there was at least a second...perhaps the one that took place in 6 or 7 AD.
Really great interview questions and measured responses from Dr. Kennedy.
Audio book bought, thanks for this interview!
This is all very excellent. Great post.
Thankyou! I plan on going out and buy Dr. Kennedy book.
You've changed me! Good lord !!!
Amen!
Wow! This was super interesting, insightful and helpful. Thank you so much for sharing all of this information. Cannot wait to share this video with others and get the book.
You bet. So glad it’s helpful.
@@SeanMcDowell You should be proud of yourself, taking advantage of naive people and children.
@@bartbannister394 if you really want to read B/S check out his books. Specious, disingenuous dogma on steroids.
They love it and can't get enough.
I go more along with boring! And I didn't see/hear any archaeological evidence for any risen Jesus...!
@@bartbannister394 Please explain.
Thank you for this commentary
11:29 & 28:54 &39:55 great questions
I wasn't able to watch it live.. just watching it now. thanks for this Sean and Titus.
Dr. McDowell, it would be great if you also brought Dr. David Falk on sometime to discuss this topic with you. I'm not sure if you're familiar with his channel Ancient Egypt and the Bible.
Thanks for the suggestion!
Yeaahh
Dr. Faulk did a video on the Exodus with Inspiring Philosophy, that was a good watch.
Bringing David Falk on is a phenomenal idea-- he's an egyptologist and archeologist who makes a robust case for the historicity of the Exodus.
@@SeanMcDowell Great job to reinforce the gospel truth. GBUA. Countless thanks to all.
Thank you!!
Will definitely buy the book. Raised Catholic, but as anybody can be, started questioning my own faith.
Don't believe ANYONE. Read and study the WHOLE bible for yourself using a lexicon Because the English translations destroyed the truth.
Psalm 146:3, Revelation 21:7.
Even if someone could prove that a certain Jesus did exist, “ which would be impossible to ascertain 100% “ it would still not prove that he is a God or the Son of a God, there is a heck of a chasm between proving the existence of Jesus and a God.
But when you objectively look at all of the evidence that clearly states that Jesus indeed did rise from the dead, that fact coupled with the prophecies that He fulfilled you definitely have a person that is the Messiah. Go listen to Gary Habermas’s bulletproof evidence of Christ’s resurrection and, if you can humble yourself, your eyes will be opened to the truth of all.
@@jimmock1155 With all due respect, the only so called “ evidence “ you have for a “ resurrection “ is the Bible, which is no evidence at all, it’s all based on hearsay, and would be thrown out of court in 5 seconds, one cannot use the Bible to prove the Bible. Extraordinaire Claims Require Extraordinaire Evidence, and unfortunately theists failed to provide extraordinaire evidence for their claims. If I write in a book where I say that I had a flying horse in my stable, does it mean that it’s true just because I wrote about it ? No ! But if I can bring you to see the horse physically then you would believe me, that’s extraordinaire evidence for my extraordinaire claim. Other claims for example are the stories of creation, Adam and Eve, the flood etc, etc……
Thank you and have a nice day.
@@jimmock1155
Habermas admits that all of his facts could be false.
Bulletproof…😂
Excellent information, great interview.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank You!
Thanks, I'm going to check out his book. God bless.
The whole thing is a scam to sell you books, collect your tithes and offerings, like and subscribe to their social media. Yahweh never existed any more than Baal, Asherah, Moloch, Marduk, Dagon, Chemosh or any of the other gods mentioned in the Bible.
Great interview
Back in 2000 I signed up for a Dig - through the biblical archaeology magazine. After watching this - I'm doing it again!! Wish we could get more digs in Turkey and Saudi Arabia....Weird huh - I choose to focus on archaeology and cool discovery instead of fighting politicians and parties.....Ha Ha Ha HAAAAA! Shalom. Laurie
I already believe in the historical Jesus as Son of God. The archeological evidence is just confirming. And will be helpful to share with my grandkids who are so new in their faith. Some people dont want to believe and nothing will convince them. But God has provided enough evidence in Nature , the Bible, history, archeology and thru the Holy Spirit that they will have no excuse on the day of judgement.
Thank you for this interesting video. FYI: The Nazareth Stone has been carved on the island of Kos during the reign of emperor Augustus in the 1st Century BC, this proved the marble investigation. The text was intended to prevent people to steal the body of a local ruler.
You guys did a great job explaining the archaeological evidence. I just bought both of Kennedy's books which I will link to in our Church's website and in my books (next reprint).
Awesome, enjoy!
Absolute excellent program very informative
God is so Omni potent he deals with every person while he is looking him in the face. He can see his heart just by looking at his face.
The truth will set us free.
I sat and absorbed this Documentary, and it reminds me of two scholars ( Sean & Titus ) are preaching to the Choir ( Me ). I assume and believe everything and have the faith that this is the absolute truth of Jesus. Thank you. God Bless.
There has been so much strident opposition/ rejection of historical Christianity this kind of refutation is necessary to provide support for belief, and provide intellectual ammunition to argue the Gospel.
Yes. Thank you for your response.@@appaloosa42
Amazing discovery by the archeological evidence for supporting the facts in the gospel, hope more evidents would be reveal in time to come .
You filled out my Census....
Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly realms.
Oh excellent! I always thought there was no evidence for a census at the time of Jesus birth.
Super encouraging and very exciting as we move closer and closer to Christ’s second coming!
I wouldn't hold my breath.
The following quote from Stephen L. Harris, Professor Emeritus of Humanities and Religious Studies at California State University- Sacramento, completes this point with a devastating argument.
*Jesus did not accomplish what Israel’s prophets said the Messiah was commissioned to do:* He did not deliver the covenant people from their Gentile enemies, reassemble those scattered in the Diaspora, restore the Davidic kingdom, or establish universal peace (cf.Isa. 9:6-7; 11:7-12:16, etc.). Instead of freeing Jews from oppressors and thereby fulfilling God’s ancient promises-for land, nationhood, kingship, and blessing- *Jesus died a “shameful” death, defeated by the very political powers the Messiah was prophesied to overcome.* Indeed, the Hebrew prophets did not foresee that Israel’s savior would be executed as a common criminal by Gentiles, *making Jesus’ crucifixion a “stumbling block” to scripturally literate Jews.* (1 Cor.1:23)
------------------------------------------------------------------
The end is near?
*The Bible’s New Testament contains a drumbeat of promises that Jesus is ready to return any day now, implying that it will happen so soon that it would be wise to keep it in mind when making any kind of life decision. But it didn’t happen.* The following is a sample of verses professing this theme:
Matt 10:23: [Jesus said to his disciples] *‘When they persecute you in one town, flee to the next;* ***for truly, I say to you, you will not have gone through all the towns of Israel, before the Son of man comes’.*** (They fled through the towns but the Son of Man never came)
Matt 16:28: [Jesus said to the disciples], *‘Truly, I say to you,* ***there are some standing here*** *who will not taste death* before they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom’.
Mark 9:1: And he [Jesus] said to them [the disciples], *‘Truly, I say to you,* ***there are some standing here*** *who will not taste death* before they see that the kingdom of God has come with power’.
Mark 13:30: *[After detailing events up to end of world, Jesus says]* ‘Truly, I say to you, ***this generation will not pass away*** *before all these things take place’.*
Mark 14:62: And Jesus said ***[to the high priest - died 1st cent. AD]*** ‘You will see the Son of man seated at the right hand of Power, and coming with the clouds of heaven’. (The high priest died and never saw the Son of Man)
Rom 13:12: The day is *at hand.*
1 Cor 7:29: The appointed time has grown very short; from now on, *let those who have wives live as though they had none.* (Funny thing to say if you didn’t think the end was imminent)
1 Cor 7:31: For the form of this world is *passing away.*
Phil 4:5: The Lord is *coming soon.*
1 Thess 4:15: *We who are alive, who are left* until the coming of the Lord.
Hebrews 1:2: *In these last days* he has spoken to us by a Son.
Hebrews 10:37: For yet a little while, and the coming one shall come and *shall not tarry.*
James 5:8: The coming of the Lord is *at hand.*
1 Peter 1:20: He [Christ] was destined before the foundation of the world but was made manifest at the *end of the times.*
1 Peter 4:7: The end of all things is *at hand.*
1 John 2:18: *It is the last hour;* and as you have heard that antichrist is coming.
Rev 1:1: The revelation of Jesus Christ (i.e., the end of the world)…to show to his servants what must *soon take place.*
Rev 3:11: [Jesus said] ‘I am *coming soon’.*
Rev 22:6: And the Lord…has sent his angel to show his servants what must *soon take place.*
Rev 22:20: [Jesus said] ‘Surely I am *coming soon’.*
*It is puzzling to understand why Christianity survived the failure of this prediction. It is not ambiguous.* This would be like a rich uncle who promises to give you $10,000 ‘very soon.’ Ten years pass and he still hasn’t given anything to you, but he still says he will do it very soon. Would you still believe that it will happen any day? No, you would realize that it is a false promise. *For some reason, Christians cannot comprehend that they have been scammed. Jesus is not coming back, not tomorrow, not next year, not ever. But they still think it will happen any day.*

@@LM-jz9vh well then by all means don't hold yout breath . All this you've written down here are old arguments and actually old arguments from heretic called preterist , alot of these arguments here . These have all been dealt with and I can only hold my breath a couple of minutes so I find it silly to hold my breath as well but only a self deceiving person doesn't believe in CHRIST and HIS resurrection after all the evidence put forth proving it factual history.

Thanks a lot !
The evidence is appreciated for those that need it, but time is getting short.
excellent thanks
Thank you for all the information said here. God bless.
Aperverted generation seeks for signs and except the sign of Jonah nothing will be given. The word became flesh and dwelt amongst us. By faith through grace
Thanks!
Just bought the book. Can't wait.
Receive the book and haven't had time to read it all yet but I started it and so far it is very readable---to someone like me who is not an historian. I recommend it to anyone. You don't have to be a Phd to understand it.
I just finished this video, which followed my watching your most recent video!! Amazon was just visited too!! My new books will be here by Friday!! I am excited to add them to my collection, and can't wait to read them! ☺️
This gentleman speaks the truth and God and Christ Christ is not a belief until you understand his ministry Christ be with you saw and finding the truth had to go a lot of the Jewish people who are Gentiles with closed minds keep up the good work I follow Christ
Though some may know..but yet hid it..now that it is surfacing it'll be the "glory be to him "to change the perceptions of sckeptics..
Nice Easter gift. Thank you!
Praise JESUS Christ!!!
That was great. Subbed👍
Dr McDowell i really love this video,
I really want to know your position on the debate about Gospel's Model, between Dr Licona and Dr Lydia McGrew.
Archeological discoveries really approved highly historical account of the Gospel, which really not a concern if you can just invent / replace / change an event inside the Gospel narratives.
Terrific update. Titus is a real standout.
“I will declare the decree: The Lord (the Father) has said to Me: ‘You are My Son, today I have begotten You'. Ps 2:7
My SAVIOR lives with or without PROOF! HOWEVER, it is wonderful for proof to be brought forth shedding EVIDENCE on his birth, life, muder, and resurection! Thank you for your work for OUR LORD!
I see no evidence for the resurrection.
Thank you for this. We forget that there's still evidence being discovered. Just hearing it from someone on the ground so to speak is enlightening.
How is it that so many Christians understand that principal regarding Jesus, but can't grasp it when it comes to the spread of disease or climate?
@@TheKim369 Because people believe in Jesus for selfish reasons.
@@AllyMonsters Wow, great answer, so great it could be the answer to lots of really deep questions!
there is non
Easter & Christmas are excellent dates for people to publish that there "MAY" have been "new" evidence found for Jesus.
Just like the second coming it never seems to be revealed.
Really enjoyed this! Great interview.
Thanks
They found the house on straight street near Damascus I think that Paul the apostle went to, by the sea.
Wow! I really enjoyed this presentation! Thank you 💙
Both Abrahamic and Ibrahamic cults are evil ideology and threw the new converts into perpetual dark ages. Only after the French Revolution did Europe liberate themselves from the satanic clutches of clergies by decapitating and debilitating their vicious blasphemy laws and hounding the non believers as pagan worshippers.
Wow! the amount of detail that went into the gospels is incredible!
All of it made up... a hundred years or more after the "events" that never even happened
It's amazing how a little bullshit can go a long way. Mankind's gullibility is on record.
I had no DOUBT JESUS WS REAL, but the proof is great , for the maybes. Thank you for showing priif postive for the people on the fence!
I have just watched a Jewish guy called Simcha Jacobovici’s doco about the same subject and as a believer in Yeshua ha Machiach I was a little disillusioned with his evidence that almost proves that Yeshua wasn’t even crucified! It’s the Jews that need convincing! They are so intelligent and it is their nature to argue truth! I would love to see Titus and Simcha in discussion about this!
He needs to read what his 1st and 2nd century Jewish leaders wow. Polemics bragging about how they facilitated the execution of Jesus
I will go to each archeological and artifact that mention in the interview to understand more about this amazing fact.
I believe God will expose and reveal more and more finding in the future.
Thank you
So he's playing a game lasting over 2000 years, where he teases us by "revealing" an ambiguous new clue every century or so?
What an utter dck he is.
This was excellent!!! Buying the book now.
The best evidence outside the 4 gospels of the Crusofiction and resurrection is Actavis Pontious Pilate letter to Tiberious Ceaser of the events during the Jewish passover. Both Ron Wyatt's work of Archiology and the Letter of Pilate's is on CZcams. Robert Specht, geologist and historian.
I've known for a long time that Augustus ordered a census in 8 BC. Also, that Herod the Great was King of Judea at the time of Jesus's birth. This works well with the Bible that Joseph was told to take Mary and Jesus away until it was safe to return, which came in 4 BC when Herod died. As for the Slaughter of the Innocents, I heard that a study was done, and given the size of Bethlehem in that time, there were probably only about 5-8 babies that would have met the criteria for Herod's order.
Love watching these archaeological programs
Amen. They did the heavy lifting for us. We contribute in other ways. See my other comment.
