Can 500+ Eyewitnesses Be Wrong? (Jesus, Earth, disciples, Corinthians) - Page 7

As I said, if there are other independent witnesses, or written account of the 500 or 5000 witnesses during the contempary time, other than the repeated quoting of passages from the bible's collection of work by Paul, then the case is proven. If not we might as well believe Jerry's time-travel to messopotamia.

Give me a break... no one here is fooling anyone... even if there were 50,000 independant witnesses, there are some here who would discount them as delusional or biased.... AV, nice try, but try as you may, your "evidence" will never do any good without a conversion of hearts.

So you believe I time-traveled to ancient messopotamia?

What does capitalizing Scripture do? Bring out posters that just wanna practice their typing skills?

No, I agree that Napoleon was smarter than I thought he was.

And that, of course, is your prerogative. As a Sola Scripturist, I shall remain true to my calling, and let those who need independent corroboration do what they must.

I agree, Scott, thank you --- but I figured it was worth a try.

1 Corinthians 2:14 = BUT THE NATURAL MAN RECEIVETH NOT THE THINGS OF THE SPIRIT OF GOD: FOR THEY ARE FOOLISHNESS UNTO HIM: NEITHER CAN HE KNOW THEM, FOR THEY ARE SPIRITUALLY DISCERNED.

You believe that 5,000 witnesses are wrong and I didn't travel to ancient messopotamia? Doesn't that make your belief of 500 based on "there were 500 witnesses" a lie?

Again we go to the bibles credibility. Who is to say the bible is any more credible than any other books of religious decent? The correct answer to this is it is as credible as any other religious book.

I believe you were in ancient messopotamia, but it was not back in time, it was your former lifetime, one of many.
