Could Lead Codices Prove The Major Discovery of Christian History?

British archaeologists are seeking to authenticate what could be a landmark discovery in the documentation of early Christianity: a trove of 70 lead codices that appear to date from the 1st century CE, which may include key clues to the last days of Jesus' life. As UK Daily Mail reporter Fiona Macrae writes, some researchers are suggesting this could be the most significant find in Christian archeology since the Dead Sea scrolls in 1947.

This really interested me, as I read with absolute ambition. With everything that is going on in the world, many things that are stated to happen in end times. Now I don't know if this is end times or just our minds trying to put togethor things. Anyway now for the freaky part. If you look at these codices there is a part that is "sealed" or has wire wrapped around to close two or more togethor. The one side is the binder side and the other resulting three sides has seven seals on it. As in the seven seals of end times. I know it kinda made my hair stand on in. It confuses me greatly.

Don't worry. Several prophecies have to be fulfilled before the "end times" are ushered in (if this is your belief system). There has to be a temple built in Jerusalem before any of that happens.

The Bible never says that the temple must be rebuilt before we enter the tribulation. Only that it will have been rebuilt by the time the Antichrist is revealed.

The Jews were expecting a soildier warior messiah. They got a dude in a robe and sandals. Christians should be careful about setting their mind on how things are going to unfold. The end time prophecies could be metaphors that could be interpreted any which way. For example the angels said Jesus would come back descending form the heavens. Does this really mean the sky is going to open up and JC is going to come down.

Best advice is to keep your lamp filled with oil.

Who's the best candidate for a global leader, is it Obama?

Why would it be the last post in this thread? I also believe one of the worst possible scenarios for a person who believes in God and/or Jesus Christ is organized religion as it exists today. As for the bashing of other religions, I don't believe it is a question of bashing or not bashing, it is not up to any person to judge another AT ALL. Have faith in your believe, shine bright with what you have, if it brings forth good fruit, others will see and wonder at what you have. If they ask, then tell them what it is that you have that brings you such peace. God works in trully mysterious ways at times, be not so sure that he is not working in a way you do not understand.

I at all times wonder in amazement of how little I know, and look forward to a time of oneness to comprehend fully.

Peace be with all, and love one another as you would like to be loved, this includes people you may call enemies.

Not really the bible says that these events will take place about half way through the tribulation.

I'm a believer cause it's just a part of who I am. Tried to run from it many times but for some reason I can't shake the voice in my head. Every time I try to ignore the calling some greater purpose comes an bonks me on the head. Trust me I'd love to be a full blown atheist and happy. But I just can't deceive myself about myself. That said, i mesh with the great JC, he was really quite an honest dude with a whole lota wisdom and love. So i pay attention to the words he spoke and I just stick with that. As far as religion goes I hope I'm as far away from that as possible.

I'd never ask someone else to believe what I believe, it's just not my business. Each of us is in charge of ourselves. But I'm more than happy to share whatever light I can shine just because I think all of us are in this shit together and I really appreciate my fellow peps on this planet.

The thing that worries me is there are a lot of haters and atheists that got bad attitude. I'd wish they could have the best opportunites and possibly know what it's like to be one with a higher power.

Oh teach me mighty guru. Believe me I study plenty. But unlike others I don't use Wiki for all my research needs. I actually study collage level history and theology books. You know those paper things that old people used before people gained all their knowledge from blogs.
