It is amusing to hear the profound arrogance of someone knowing of God, as if He were known outside of fiction. The believer & the literate are separated by the vocabulary of fiction: Blasphemy, God, faith, prayer, prophet, etc. Matthew 17:20 He replied, “Because you have so little faith. Truly I tell you, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.” I like asking believers how they can possibly think their faith is respectable, given Jesus said faith is worthless, since you can't expect obedience when ordering mountains to move? Freud wrote, "The antidote to Christianity is literacy". Blasphemy is a fiction vocabulary word. Blasphemy is a victimless crime. Believers lack of quality-control, so we are to pretend their God made Mormons so Christians would know how Jews feel. Like playing book tag.
For me my beloved ho you are I,am not to tell you about my feeling if because you and me is same to doing sense doing I,am not a perfect only my feeling to tell about of loves feeling of me,
God is so amazing. ❤ 🙏🏼🌲 Jesus loves you and He thinks about you. 💭 I love 💘 you. I’m so sorry this is so heart wrenching. I wish I could fix it . I would fix everything for you if I could. Please stay strong. He’s never been closer and stronger and more giving and things are rolling quickly so please stay strong and safe and peaceful. Don’t forget if it happens God let it happen and we don’t understand everything so please don’t forget that I love you.
I'm a Buddhist who goes to church to honor my in laws, who are so wonderful, and to just enjoy a holy space and time to contemplate and pray silently. I love this program, and revisit it often. There is something so very beautiful about it. All God's emissaries (and there are many) bring us a story of love. They need not conflict. Nor do we.
I'm very grateful for my Buddhist friends that gently pulled me into longer & longer disciplines of silent sits & walking meditations (& the very helpful yogic Hindu practices as well). I'm a practicing Christian, I aspire to walking the path of peace. Again, thank you Buddhist buddies (auto correct kept changing my misspellings of Buddhist to Buddies).
Peace be unto you Brother. Catholic here, but I have many Buddhist/Confucianism family from my wife lines and some from my family. And I often smile seeing my wife (a Catholic) put some incense in front of our ancestor photograph along with cross, Mother Mary Statue, and a rosary.
Buddhism/Christianity are all just vague terms. We're all trying to get to the main source. Our egos have to put labels on it, because it can't see, or understand the divine, or the vastness of the unknown. They're all terms. But you and I are one. Cheers.
Same here!Buddha is more similar with Jesus than Catholic and orthodox or whatever Christianity! Jesus was the best human being ever exist from the old and new testiment!we only need to embrace Him and follow His teachings to see the real meaning of life
I know Jesus is God 💯. I was healed after 2 yrs suffering from covid .. had a brain aneurysm and high blood pressure stroke and limg covid flareuos weekly .. I couldn't speak well nor walk 10 steps .. I was prayed over by anointed pastor and bam .. I can speak coherently write this to u n problem, and walk 15k steps.. I know what Jesus did .. it wasn't them telling stories if a failed messiah ..
If it didn't come from the Holy Bible, don't believe it. A lot of this stuff is conjecture. Beware of false doctrines. Let God's word be true, but every man a liar.
@@mortalclown3812 THAT IS A LIE GOD DOES HATE/ HE HATED ESAU BE4 HE WAS BORN. YOUR RIGHT ABOUT ALL WILL HAVE ETERNAL LIFE SOME IN HELL SOME IN HEAVEN/ U WILL SEE WHAT GOD HATES WHEN JUDGNMENT DAY COMES...
Christ has moved in my own life so many times. I have never seen or touched physically this thing so profound, yet it quite clearly is the strongest and most graceful thing that I have ever witnessed.
Beautiful. I experienced it too, as an atheist. It was the death of Jesus, who remained loving, that opened my heart, where philosophy and other religions had only managed to open my mind. Now I'm led by the heart, and small miracles pour out in my life and around me. Thanks for sharing it so well.
To learn more about Jesus, the Gospels are the best place to start. Another great place is Revelation. He shed his blood on the cross to cleanse us of our sins.
@@1Corinthians15.1-4 I like the Gospels, Christ's words of wisdom. However, I do not see how Revelations align with what Christ professed. Christ was all about love, kindness and forgiveness. And that spirit does not align with the content of Revelations.
@@Juki1976 You know how in every movie where the little guy triumphs at the end over the selfish bullies who were holding him down. That's an aspect of love that we all feel and long for very deeply, unconsciously. It's just awkward sometimes to speak about. For instance, if you stood up to the bully, and no one saw all the horrible things the bully had done or remembered them, and only saw your justice of striking them back, or having the authorities catch them, you might think that the bully was actually the victim. It's complex, but perhaps you can relate to the dichotomy of love as an olive branch that connects us all and a sword that separates the good from the evil. I was an atheist my whole life for context, but the most challenging aspects of the gospel have now become the most enlightening, instructive, and redeeming for me. Literally every emotion, every event, has a place in God's plan if you can take a google maps view of it and zoom out. Just look at how the suffering of the early church fathers was justified in the end, and the bullies were punished. Now, people who don't see the big picture see the Christians as the bullies. But for those who follow the word and understand the nuance, we are still shocked to find ourselves giving to the poor and celebrating the weak, when as non-believers we only feared for our own significance in this life. I pray you will continue your own search, only because I love you and I want you to know what it's like to have an awakening of the heart to things you only thought possible in stories. I gain nothing from writing this besides seeing a fellow seeker who might one day find that these mustard seeds have grown into something palpable, the only story I've ever encountered that changed me into something new for good. Something more loving, and less concerned with my own position above other people.
I have a collection of documentaries I found on RUclips about Yeshua, Daniel and Revelations that I watch and it helps me fall asleep. There's something CALMING about it.
Even though I am an atheist, I am fascinated with the phenomenon of religion. When you don't really understand something, you are drawn all the more to learn about it.
@proud goyim I believe in facts, yes... Let me guess, you believe some sort of supernatural entity zapped you into being and you have nothing to do with the rest of the animal kingdom. If that makes you feel safe and special, dream on!
If you’re interested in more you should watch some of the video presentation given by Dr. Bart Ehrman, a New Testament scholar and Professor at the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill. He’s written over thirty books, some are text books and some for the general public that have been on The NY Times best sellers list.
@@davidkeller6156 Great recommendation! I like him a lot and have watched several of his lectures and podcast appearances. A book by him is on my "must read" list.
@@billscannell93 I”ve read three so far. Just recently discovered him. Even though I’m not a Christian, I was raised as one and still believe in God. I’ve been fascinated for a few years now about the history of Christianity and the Bible. The one I just finished is “Jesus Interrupted”. Covers some of the contradictions and discrepancies in the New Testament. This has been my favorite so far. The others I’ve read were also excellent reads, imho. “Heaven and Hell: A History of the Afterlife” was rather eye opening. It shows the connection of some beliefs in Judaism to other cultures in the Levant, especially the Persians, Greeks and Babylonians. Some of it I already knew but I learned quite a lot from that book. The other was “The Triumph of Christianity: How a Forbidden Religion Swept the World”. Some of what this video showed is covered. Some of the more fundamentalist types don’t like him because he’s an agnostic, but as he states, most of what he covers is already known and agreed on by most scholars. He does offer his own opinion on something’s, but nothing that’s not reasonable. He even knows other scholars, like himself, that still remain Christians, and states it wasn’t his knowledge of the history that led him to leave the church, but he couldn’t reconcile a loving God with all the human suffering in the world.
Dominic Crossan expresses the essential comparative understanding between “literal” interpretation and the “metaphorical” rendering. Here is the heart of the matter, for me. The experts in this documentary all speak from a place of love, wisdom, knowledge and respect. Powerful. I listen and learn continuously. 🙏🏼
PBS doesn't desire factual news for recent events, they sure don't desire to be accurate about our Lord. Keep in mind this is a channel that has Kermit the frog bringing "queens" on to normalize evil to kids.
These people are ignorant because they don't have the Holy Spirit in them, that's why The Word is hidden from these types of people. You have to believe that Jesus was born of a virgin, walked as a man & Jesus as The Messiah that has already come, lived then died for our sins then Rose on the 3rd day (defeated death) then God's/Jesus' Spirit (The Holy Ghost) which dwells inside of Christian's (The Church) so we are God's Temple here on earth.. He will come back to get His church one day & every knee & head will bow to Him as God then he will judge all that never excepted God's only Son (Jesus), if you don't believe on Jesus & ask for his forgiveness, follow Him to be saved by His grace to wash away your sins (past & future) you can never enter heaven. This is the only way we are able to be with a Holy God. This is exactly why you have to know that Jesus is Word that was with God in the beginning and became flesh. The KJV is a perfect Bible that was written by The Holy Spirit. Understanding the trinity is important to understand all of this. I pray you find Jesus and accept Him as your Lord that died for your sins. Seek & you will find The Truth (Jesus)
This is brilliant scholarship! When you actually comprehend the history, you'll now know our, "Christmas" is a renamed Pagan (as in mutiple deities) festival time.
Actually the Origin of Christmas came from pagan festival of Sun god worship Mithra. Nowhere in the bible said must practice christmas From Wikipedia: The origin of Christmas can be traced to pagan celebrations of the winter solstice. Before Christianity, pagans celebrated longer days and more sun at the end of December. Church officials later adopted Christmas as a celebration of the birth of Jesus. Which date that pagan celebrate God's Mithra birthday? It appears that the annual celebration held on December 25, the winter solstice, was the most important celebration of the cult; it was believed that Mithra was born on this day, hence “the birthday of the unconquered sun” (Latin: natalis solis invicti). The celebration of Christmas started in Rome about 336, but it did not become a major Christian festival until the 9th century.
What an absolutely wonderful documentary depicting the evolution of Christianity. We must always keep in mind that man operated within the structure of the society in which they lived, rather than super - imposing 21th century thinking on 1st century civilizations.
Christianity has always been the same garbage. Rome never fell, that's why you have all this degeneratecy in these Greko-Roman Christian societies. The only thing that has changed is the tech.
We as a society, have forgotten the teachings of Jesus. We sadly do deserve what ever god has in store for us. Look what we have done with the world we where given.
Jesus you saved me; an atheistic addict suffering from depression and anxiety, my world was dark but nothing is too dark for the light of the world. Come to him when you have reached the end of yourself, genuine and with humility, seek and you will find. He will answer. I am saved and my life has been transformed. I was told by the world I could fix myself but how can I fix myself when I am the one who is broken? Jesus I was dead in my sins, and you pulled me from the pit. Now I am loved, and I will show love just as you showed me Lord
It's impossible for God to be a human. God is different from humans in that there are inherited sins. All understandings and concepts of divinity are ambiguous. When the debates of the priests just go round and round, there is no clear answer. That's why many Christians have converted to Islam and that's the sane and intelligent human beings in the Bible. Isn't it possible? There is Jesus calling Christians
@@peanut924 yes, praise the Lord in the past year how many times He has delivered me from fear and despair. He has done miracles of healing in my life, curing my brother of leukemia for the SECOND time, healing my father of serious spinal cord injury. My prayers are heard, He hears us. Not a single tear forgotten
Did you not watch the documentary? How does one of many rabbis, eccentric moral reformer; still a common criminal & failed apocalyptic prophet. come to be known as the Jewish diety Yahweh? (god)In the end confronted with the fact we die alone. Paul loved the myth and was able to start his own religion by mixing & continuing the traditions of the cosmopolitan gods & cults in the cities. So interesting the Jesus followers were originally Pagans & and polytheists were urban. I digress (Pagano = rural folk,hillbilly,yoke It’s really simple math in the end if a gentile adds a god 🤷♀️ adds the Jewish god -1 pagan If 10 OG Christians convert 1 gentile a year ur in the millions within a generation so all you really need an avg of one in a lifetime..🤬 spell check

I have an amazing story. One day I was driving home, when all of a sudden the Lord came to me in spirit. I felt very close to Him. I knew if I asked him to play any song on the radio he would, I guess to bless my faith. So I said "ok, Lord play "Come as you are by Nirvana". I turned on the radio and the song started playing right there on the spot, perfectly… I started getting flooded with chills like a waterfall, crying, and trembling. He stayed with me for 10 minutes in my driveway. until I got outta the car. A couple months after that I started getting amazing prayers answered way more often, because it helped me quit doubting when I pray and I was lined up with biblical instructions. It's 6 years later and I still get answered prayers in Jesus name.
@@robbiebobbie2011 No. That's very rare for me. But, let me share a bit more. There have been 3 or 4 people healed from stage four cancer at one church I go to. Another woman was healed of cancer there not to long ago. A deaf woman had hearing restored in another church. A few years ago a woman called me out of the blue and told me her schizophrenia was completely healed after I prayed for her years ago. A few years ago, I told a co-worker 2 stories and asked if I could pray for him and he said yeah. I prayed for his family, his finances, and things. I came to work 4 days later. He said he had gotten promoted to GM Manager over a bunch of different stores. Getting paid from 900 to 1600 and his wife was getting insane overtime hours. I mentioned that we prayed and he looked at me like he saw a ghost.
@@robbiebobbie2011 They were going to the hospital, but stage four cancer, can't just heal miraculously overnight like that from what I understand. Stage four means you're in the stage, where it's so out of control you're certainly going to die. But, those people weren't from my prayers. The whole church was praying for them. I only prayed for one of them. The woman that had schizophrenia, took medication to help her cope with it, but it wasn't a cure. I don't think there is a cure for schizophrenia. The deaf woman, was cured when the church prayed as well. I don't know if she was getting treatment, but since she came and told the church she was healed by Jesus, I assume it probably wasn't from doctors. Not sure if there is an actual cure for deafness either.
@@michi-bi fortunately I wasn’t asking people. And also fortunately I’ve prayed about it and these sources confirmed most of what the Holy Spirit revealed to me. Amen
@@lydiab6072 that's great you got to know the Holy Spirit, but I was wondering why you thought this was non bias perspective.most People are polarized to either run from God or seek God.
Were are we now as far as Christian goes ? Meaning were do we as Christians stand today? And why? As far as me I do believe in CHRIST and our GOD THE Father ❤❤❤❤❤
I have my Bachelor’s and Master’s in History, but chose to devote my career after the military to teaching public school. I'm also a senior leader at my church. I have used Frontline in senior high classes, so it wouldn't have surprised me if this series was a little skewed against Christianity. Actually, what I found was a theme that tried to stay purely historical on a subject that has a foundation of the spiritual and miraculous; no small feat. Because of this, the narrative had to operate without the Holy Spirit, which gives them great license to speculate in many different ways. I think the narrative and the scholars did a pretty good job of staying historical. In fact, a couple of the scholars almost seemed apologetic as they presented their views, as if they had more to share, but had to stick with the narrative. Regardless of whether the scholars were believers or not, most of them kept pretty neutral as far as spiritual matters went. Overall, I found this very interesting, as well as informative. One way of presenting a man (and for some of us God) and movement that had an unsurpassed impact on the history of the world.
Sending warm wishes and uplifting prayers to everyone navigating through tough times. May the streams of financial challenges redirect towards abundance, may health rejuvenate like a spring, and may divine blessings illuminate the way for each and every soul. 🌸🙏💖

☄️THE GOSPEL OF THE WORD OF ALMIGHTY GOD "the last age in which God saves man from the destruction of this old world" (In the Age of the Kingdom, God uses the word to initiate a new age, change the way He works, and do the work of the entire age. This is the principle God uses to work in the Age of the Word. Such work is done to better achieve the goals of conquering man, perfecting man, and eliminating man, which is the true meaning of using words to work in the Word Age. Through these, these, the man is being exposed, taken away, and tested. People have seen God's words, heard these words, and acknowledged their existence. The word "words" can be please and ordinary, but the words spoken from the mouth of God incarnate shake the universe, they change people's hearts, change their thoughts and former dispositions, and change the former form of the whole world. From this time on, man lives under the guidance of God's words, guided and sustained by His words. These words and deeds are all for the salvation of man, to fulfill the will of God, and to change the original form of the world of the previous creation. God created the world with words, He guides people throughout the universe with words, and He conquers and saves them with words. Ultimately, He will use the words to bring an end to the entire old world, thereby completing the entirety of His plan of government.) Almighty God said In the AGE OF THE KINGDOM, GOD USES the WORD to START the NEW AGE, CHANGE the way He works, and do the WORK of the entire age. This is the principle that GOD USES in WORKING in the AGE of the WORD. He became a MAN to speak from different perspectives, so that MAN CAN REALLY SEE GOD, who is the WORD APPEARING IN THE FLESH, and behold His WISDOM and WONDER.🙏 SUCH WORK IS DONE to better ACHIEVE the GOALS of SUBJECTING MAN, making MAN PERFECT, and eliminating man, which is the TRUE MEANING of using WORDS to WORK in the AGE of the WORD. ☀️🙏 THROUGH these words, MAN KNOWS God's work, God's disposition, MAN'S SPIRIT, and WHAT MAN SHOULD ENTER.

PEOPLE have SEEN the WORDS of GOD, HEARD these WORDS, and recognized the existence of these WORDS. 🙏 Because of this, they have believed in the EXISTENCE of GOD, in the infinite POWER and WISDOM of GOD, as well as in GOD'S LOVE for MAN and His only SAVE MAN.

These WORDS and ACTIONS are ALL for the SALVATION of MAN, to FULFILL the WILL of GOD, and to CHANGE the ORIGINAL form of the WORLD of the previous CREATION.☀️ GOD CREATED THE WORLD with WORDS, He GUIDES PEOPLE throughout the UNIVERSE with WORDS, and He CONQUERS and SAVES them with WORDS. 🙏 At LAST, He WILL USE WORDS to END the entire former WORLD, thereby completing the ENTIRENESS of His PLAN of GOVERNMENT. 🙏 Throughout the AGE of the KINGDOM, GOD USES WORDS to DO His WORK, and achieve the RESULTS of His WORK. He does NOT work wonders or perform miracles, but only does His work through words. Because of these WORDS, MAN IS CARED for and fed, and gains KNOWLEDGE and TRUE EXPERIENCE. ☀️ In the AGE of the WORD, MAN is greatly blessed. He does not suffer physical pain and only enjoys an abundant supply of God's words; without having to narrowly search or travel, in the midst of His comfort, he sees the manifestation of God, he HEARS Him SPEAK from His OWN mouth, he ACCEPTS what He gives, and personally baptizes Him to do His WORK. These are things that people in previous ages did not enjoy, and these are blessings they will never receive. 🙏 From "The Word, Vol. 1 The Manifestation and Work of God.

As a biblical Christian I find this doc quite useful. There are those that say Christ Himself is a myth. A superficial breeze through history quashes that belief and renders the opinion of those who believe there was no Christ to be invalid. (I know, today, all opinions are valid. But in reality they are not.) I take comfort that Christ is the enemy of present and ancient world systems. Ever ask why? He used no army. Never robbed stole killed lied or anything that could be considered a crime. His only crime was truth. His followers are taught to forgive their enemies. Pray for those that despitefully use you. Turn the other cheek. Can’t get more non threatening than that. So why the vitriol ? Simple. “ men, love darkness, rather than the light, because their deeds are evil.” Nutshell. They hated Jesus because His very presence exposes our deeds and makes us rethink our actions. Now more than ever.
The theology of the death, life and resurrection of Jesus is way much more complete than this people make it... Paul was already talking about his death and resurrection before Matthew wrote his gospel and the early Christian had a reach understanding of the Law and the Torah which they always used to prove their points of view. It is not as simplistic as some of these people seem to make it... they were quite sophisticated for their time.
Curious about the story of him being in the garden of Gethsemane. If he went up all alone to pray and his apostles were all sleeping, how does anyone write about this if there were no witnesses?
@@peanut924 - Hi! This is one of the roles of the Holy Spirit. John 14:26 says the Holy Spirit will teach you all things and bring to remembrance all that I have said to you. 2 Timothy 3:16 says all scripture is given by inspiration of God (HS) and 2 Peter 1:19-21 says, For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man, but holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Spirit. So, we can trust that since all things are possible with God, even if the apostles were asleep at the time, they were taught by the Holy Spirit what they should write.
Thank you for this wonderful document. Please pray for my country. Recently, there has been a heat in my country between Buddhists and Christians about Jesus. There is a famous Buddhist Monk who claimed on social media that Jesus went to India before he started his ministry and after he was crucified on the cross based on some books (Jesus Lived in India by Holger Kersten) (Life of Saint Issa by Nicolas Notovitch) and a BBC documentary (Jesus was a Buddhist Monk). It is so sad to see those books and documents lead people away from God. More than 90% of people in my country are Buddhist, and they fell for that too. Can you make the document to prove those claims were wrong or anyone can provide the source to prove that those claims were wrong? Please pray for the lost sheep🙏🙏

I see this movie as a collaboration between a faction of Christians and Jews trying to hide the true ethnic origins of the Biblical Hebrews. What I find amazing is how they went into such explicit detail without revealing that the Bible is a black history book. All of the biblical icons were Africans. The Biblical Hebrews were not called Jews and the Messiah's name wasn't Jesus. They and the people of that era referred to them as Hebrews or Hebrew Israelites. The iconic images in this video of the one they call Christ looks like an Irishman. The deception is intentional. The Old Testament established their was no physical differences between the Egyptians, Hebrews, and the Ethiopians. Physically you could only tell them apart by their clothing and their ornaments. The demographics in the Holy Land have changed quite significantly due to war and mass migration. How can you talk about the first Christians and Hebrews and not mention their establishment in Ethiopia. How can you talk about the Hebrews without talking about those that settled in Ethiopia and in West and South Africa after the destruction of Jerusalem. It really gets scary to the church and the synagogue. The first Africans to be deported in the transatlantic slave trade were biblical Hebrews. People in this country who try to dodge the responsibility for slavery by proclaiming other African tribes were selling other Africans into slavery. There's a part of that story that was intentionally left out. The biblical Hebrews tribe of Yudah living in West Africa were different from the other African tribes. They were singled out to be the first captured Africans sold into the transatlantic slave trade in the Western Hemisphere. This information must be terrifying to the church and present-day Jews. Present-day Jews converted to Judaism in 740 AD under King Bulan. The European Jew therefore has no archaeological, genetic, or historical connection to the original biblical hebrews. They are European gentiles who lived in the Kazarian Empire. They always lived between the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea and as far north as the present day city of Keiv. The devil has deceived the whole world. This video is an intentional attempt to deceive and distract. It's an attempt to explain Christianity as a European religion when actually the Bible is a black history book. This video attempts to draw a connection between European Jews and the biblical Hebrews that did not exist. The biblical Hebrews were Africans. There was no physical difference between the Hebrew Israelites, Egyptians and the Ethiopians. They were all Africans.
Constantine defeated Maxentius at the Battle of Milvian Bridge ... after winning the battle Constantine painted Maxentius as a persecutor of Christians ... while not pro-Christian, Max was tolerant of the faith ... it had already become established thru-out the empire and was a force to be reckoned with ... Constantine was more pragmatic and saw the benefit of getting the Christians on his side pronto-mundo ...and Constantine did not actually convert to Christianity until much later ... very near to his own death ... he claimed that as emperor he could not adhere to the compassionate teachings of the church ... it simply was not feasible to run the empire and be a good Christian ...actually quite true
Constantine did not start the Catholic Church, contrary to protestant narratives. It had been around for at least 300 years prior he used to walk in on masses and just observe & his mother Helena was a Catholic.
Hello 👋 how are you doing today? I pray2024 brings happiness, peace and love all over the world 🌎🌎🌎I’m originally from Canada grow up in Fort Worth Texas, currently living in Key West Florida. Where are you from if i may ask?
Well, it's Jewish music. Literally. Cultural appropriation, including stealing ancient Jewish history as that of the "first Christians"... And stealing [and rewriting] Jewish scripture (5 Books of Moses - aka the Torah) ... And fetishizing persecution that was done to actual Jews, for being Jewish. Persecution for being revolutionary by daring to believe in only one God - a God that's _not_ a King or Ruler on Earth, as was common place in virtually every empire and kingdom at the time. The peasants worshipped their own oppressors as Gods, because they were indoctrinated to believe this for generations, and it was enforced by the Ruler's armies. Hence, why Jews were seen as a threat to these empires that'd go on to enslave, wage wars, invasions, coups, massacre, burn, and yes, crucify _all_ Jews (why put one life above hundreds of thousands killed exactly the same way? Why wear a symbol of these violent injustices around your neck?). Josephus, whose, of course, carefully quoted throughout this series, was a Jewish slave to the Romans, forced to "author" their propaganda. They used his literacy and knowledge of Hebrew & Aramaic to translate, and literally rewrite thousands of years of documented Jewish history the Roman Empire plundered and burned. It's truly sickening that every historian knows Josephus (a Romanized name, not his real name) was a *slave* , and yet they continue to utilize this work as the singular source for the "history of the Jews"... Well, besides the Christian Bible, which is equally unkind to Jews and their history. It's obvious to anyone who reads Josephus, that it contains a myriad of fundamental historical and timeline inaccuracies, and further, note from the very first sentence how tainted the content is with Antisemitism. It goes to great pains to paint the Roman Invaders and Spartans as "victims" of "savage" Maccabeean fighters, fighting in self defense against Roman invasions that sought to end the Jewish people, during the 3 Roman-Jewish Wars (Jews won the first 2 against all odds, but in defensive wars, it only takes one loss to lose everything). Josephus was one of the only Jews at the time "allowed" to live outside of Judea. Judea, a small walled province that housed the only Jews "allowed" to remain on their own land, was the very first Jewish ghetto created by the Greco-Romans in Byzantine-occupied Israel. It was the first time Jews were banned from intermarriage with non-Jews, banned from practicing their religion, deprived of the most basic human rights; living segregated from society in an open air prison the size of an entire province. Any sane person would take issue with the perpetrators of such inhumanity not only skipping over exactly _how_ Jews were persecuted throughout this period (likely because this is the part Christians don't want to "appropriate," given they've persecuted Jews in the exact same way many times over the last 2,000 yrs, and it never happened to a single Christian) - but then the gaslighting; pretending it happened to the "first Christians" instead, is just too much for anyone who knows this history to stay silent. The first Christians were never Jews at all - they were the Romans. Christianity was their "long game" to end Judaism. First by trying to trick Jews into believing in adopting their Messiah, then converting them to this centralized authorization doctrine (Judaism has no doctrine) that'd then exert incredible control over their free will. Jews have been persecuted in large part because they could not suspend disbelief and adopt new beliefs in superstition, or willingly adopt very dark & scary ideology (i.e. Satan, Hell, possession, demons, the afterlife, end of times prophecy, Revelations, tribulations, etc). The Bible is an incredibly violent book. All of it. The Old Testament, btw, at most, only contains up to 0.5% Jewish text taken from the Torah. Judaism is not a scriptural religion, so it should go without saying the OT is not Jewish at all. Those who follow the OT are called _Fundamentalist Christians_ . Anyways, didn't intend to go into all that... But the usage of straight-up Jewish prayer and worship songs, literally sung by a Cantor but edited so you can't hear the words being sung, in addition to using Jewish melodies as the music score for a documentary attempting to erase Jewish history as that of "early Christianity," really was a bridge too far. This was a privately funded "documentary" made by one of Frontline's sponsors, and distributed by Frontline in exchange for donations that help fund actual journalism. All of the so-called "scholars" are professors are private Christian universities (Duke, DePaul, etc), or Christian theologians, many teaching in Christian seminary schools (Harvard Divinity School, etc). Only 2 of them claim to be historians of any kind, but even they are just fringe authors whose work is only published by Christian and/or Church owned/affiliated publishing companies and universities.
If Jesus wasn’t a real man then he was at least a compilation of separate men doing great works of good and that’s almost more relatable as we are all human like him. I look at the bible like a litmus test, those who read it for the hidden wisdom for courage and those who read it in faith for comfort. It is beautiful either way.
The people on here commenting how this series has a neutral or even worse positive or uplifting take on Christianity shouldn't reproduce. Seriously. You people aren't listening.
Very little that is positive to humans or intellect is part of "Christianity". Nothing the Bible says was not said in other cultures. Christianity is a derivative of the good and bad of its predecessors. Accept this and you will see more clearly the entirety of the human experience.
I hope that people look towards one another in kindness instead of catagorizeness. Thankyou for the documentary. I hope everybody who reads this is blessed with a safety and clarity and understanding that God knows you beyond any confusion or mistake... May healing and restoration and understanding be yours thru the creativity of God and Love and the Good Spirit of light and love.

Christ Mass has nothing to do with Yahushua( falsely called J-Zeus/ Jesus) . That is a pagan invention of Rome. Yahushua was not born on 25 December. There was not even a Gregorian Calendar then. We are not to celebrate birthdays.

How can they talk about the first Christians and Hebrews and not mention the earliest establishment in Ethiopia, West, and South Africa. Ethiopia was the first Christian nation. How can you talk about the Hebrews history without talking about those that settled in Ethiopia and in West and South Africa after the destruction of Jerusalem. This really gets scary to the church and the synagogue. The first Africans to be deported in the transatlantic slave trade were Biblical Hebrews from the tribe of Yudah. People in this country who try to dodge the responsibility for slavery by proclaiming other African tribes were selling other Africans into slavery. There's a part of that story that was intentionally left out. The Biblical Hebrews tribe of Yudah living in West Africa were different from the other West African tribes. They were singled out to be the first captured Africans sold into the transatlantic slave trade in the Western Hemisphere. This information must be terrifying to the church and present-day Jews. Present-day Jews converted to Judaism in 740 AD under King Bulan. The European Jew therefore has no archaeological, genetic, or historical connection to the original Biblical Hebrews. Jews are European gentiles who lived in the Kazarian Empire. The kingdom occupied the region between the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea and as far north as the present day city of Keiv. When the new Jewish Kingdom eventually failed the people spread out across Eastern and Western Europe. The devil has deceived the whole world. This video is an intentional attempt to deceive and distract. It's an attempt to explain Christianity as a European religion when actually the Bible is a black history book. This video attempts to draw a connection between European Jews and the biblical Hebrews that did not exist. The Biblical Hebrews were Africans. There was no physical difference between the Hebrew Israelites, Egyptians and the Ethiopians. They were all Africans and technically the holy land is in AFRICA.

It is amusing to hear the profound arrogance of someone knowing of God, as if He were known outside of fiction. The believer & the literate are separated by the vocabulary of fiction: Blasphemy, God, faith, prayer, prophet, etc. Matthew 17:20 He replied, “Because you have so little faith. Truly I tell you, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.” I like asking believers how they can possibly think their faith is respectable, given Jesus said faith is worthless, since you can't expect obedience when ordering mountains to move? Freud wrote, "The antidote to Christianity is literacy".
Blasphemy is a fiction vocabulary word. Blasphemy is a victimless crime.
Believers lack of quality-control, so we are to pretend their God made Mormons so Christians would know how Jews feel. Like playing book tag.

This is a very informative history of Christianity that I remember watching in 1998 and have enjoyed watching it again now in 2024.
I'm a Buddhist who goes to church to honor my in laws, who are so wonderful, and to just enjoy a holy space and time to contemplate and pray silently. I love this program, and revisit it often. There is something so very beautiful about it. All God's emissaries (and there are many) bring us a story of love. They need not conflict. Nor do we.
I'm very grateful for my Buddhist friends that gently pulled me into longer & longer disciplines of silent sits & walking meditations (& the very helpful yogic Hindu practices as well). I'm a practicing Christian, I aspire to walking the path of peace. Again, thank you Buddhist buddies (auto correct kept changing my misspellings of Buddhist to Buddies).
Peace be unto you Brother.
Catholic here, but I have many Buddhist/Confucianism family from my wife lines and some from my family.
And I often smile seeing my wife (a Catholic) put some incense in front of our ancestor photograph along with cross, Mother Mary Statue, and a rosary.
Buddhism/Christianity are all just vague terms. We're all trying to get to the main source. Our egos have to put labels on it, because it can't see, or understand the divine, or the vastness of the unknown. They're all terms. But you and I are one. Cheers.
Same here!Buddha is more similar with Jesus than Catholic and orthodox or whatever Christianity! Jesus was the best human being ever exist from the old and new testiment!we only need to embrace Him and follow His teachings to see the real meaning of life
We are one!I see you

To learn more about Jesus, the Gospels are the best place to start. Another great place is Revelation. He shed his blood on the cross to cleanse us of our sins.
@@1Corinthians15.1-4 I like the Gospels, Christ's words of wisdom. However, I do not see how Revelations align with what Christ professed. Christ was all about love, kindness and forgiveness. And that spirit does not align with the content of Revelations.
@@Juki1976 You know how in every movie where the little guy triumphs at the end over the selfish bullies who were holding him down. That's an aspect of love that we all feel and long for very deeply, unconsciously. It's just awkward sometimes to speak about. For instance, if you stood up to the bully, and no one saw all the horrible things the bully had done or remembered them, and only saw your justice of striking them back, or having the authorities catch them, you might think that the bully was actually the victim. It's complex, but perhaps you can relate to the dichotomy of love as an olive branch that connects us all and a sword that separates the good from the evil. I was an atheist my whole life for context, but the most challenging aspects of the gospel have now become the most enlightening, instructive, and redeeming for me. Literally every emotion, every event, has a place in God's plan if you can take a google maps view of it and zoom out. Just look at how the suffering of the early church fathers was justified in the end, and the bullies were punished. Now, people who don't see the big picture see the Christians as the bullies. But for those who follow the word and understand the nuance, we are still shocked to find ourselves giving to the poor and celebrating the weak, when as non-believers we only feared for our own significance in this life. I pray you will continue your own search, only because I love you and I want you to know what it's like to have an awakening of the heart to things you only thought possible in stories. I gain nothing from writing this besides seeing a fellow seeker who might one day find that these mustard seeds have grown into something palpable, the only story I've ever encountered that changed me into something new for good. Something more loving, and less concerned with my own position above other people.

@@billscannell93 I”ve read three so far. Just recently discovered him. Even though I’m not a Christian, I was raised as one and still believe in God. I’ve been fascinated for a few years now about the history of Christianity and the Bible.
The one I just finished is “Jesus Interrupted”. Covers some of the contradictions and discrepancies in the New Testament. This has been my favorite so far. The others I’ve read were also excellent reads, imho. “Heaven and Hell: A History of the Afterlife” was rather eye opening. It shows the connection of some beliefs in Judaism to other cultures in the Levant, especially the Persians, Greeks and Babylonians. Some of it I already knew but I learned quite a lot from that book. The other was “The Triumph of Christianity: How a Forbidden Religion Swept the World”. Some of what this video showed is covered. Some of the more fundamentalist types don’t like him because he’s an agnostic, but as he states, most of what he covers is already known and agreed on by most scholars. He does offer his own opinion on something’s, but nothing that’s not reasonable. He even knows other scholars, like himself, that still remain Christians, and states it wasn’t his knowledge of the history that led him to leave the church, but he couldn’t reconcile a loving God with all the human suffering in the world.
Dominic Crossan expresses the essential comparative understanding between “literal” interpretation and the “metaphorical” rendering. Here is the heart of the matter, for me. The experts in this documentary all speak from a place of love, wisdom, knowledge and respect. Powerful. I listen and learn continuously. 🙏🏼

These people are ignorant because they don't have the Holy Spirit in them, that's why The Word is hidden from these types of people. You have to believe that Jesus was born of a virgin, walked as a man & Jesus as The Messiah that has already come, lived then died for our sins then Rose on the 3rd day (defeated death) then God's/Jesus' Spirit (The Holy Ghost) which dwells inside of Christian's (The Church) so we are God's Temple here on earth.. He will come back to get His church one day & every knee & head will bow to Him as God then he will judge all that never excepted God's only Son (Jesus), if you don't believe on Jesus & ask for his forgiveness, follow Him to be saved by His grace to wash away your sins (past & future) you can never enter heaven. This is the only way we are able to be with a Holy God. This is exactly why you have to know that Jesus is Word that was with God in the beginning and became flesh. The KJV is a perfect Bible that was written by The Holy Spirit. Understanding the trinity is important to understand all of this. I pray you find Jesus and accept Him as your Lord that died for your sins. Seek & you will find The Truth (Jesus)

Watching Christmas. 2023. God bless you all. Jesus is the reason for the season ❤
This is brilliant scholarship! When you actually comprehend the history, you'll now know our, "Christmas" is a renamed Pagan (as in mutiple deities) festival time.
Actually the Origin of Christmas came from pagan festival of Sun god worship Mithra. Nowhere in the bible said must practice christmas
From Wikipedia:
The origin of Christmas can be traced to pagan celebrations of the winter solstice. Before Christianity, pagans celebrated longer days and more sun at the end of December. Church officials later adopted Christmas as a celebration of the birth of Jesus.
Which date that pagan celebrate God's Mithra birthday?
It appears that the annual celebration held on December 25, the winter solstice, was the most important celebration of the cult; it was believed that Mithra was born on this day, hence “the birthday of the unconquered sun” (Latin: natalis solis invicti).
The celebration of Christmas started in Rome about 336, but it did not become a major Christian festival until the 9th century.

People may want to see it, nobody "needs" to see it as you suggest. People like you are what's wrong with this world.
This is brilliant scholarship! When you actually comprehend the history, you'll now know our "Christmas" is a renamed Pagan (as in mutiple deities) festival time.@@takyrica

I have an amazing story. One day I was driving home, when all of a sudden the Lord came to me in spirit. I felt very close to Him. I knew if I asked him to play any song on the radio he would, I guess to bless my faith.
So I said "ok, Lord play "Come as you are by Nirvana".
I turned on the radio and the song started playing right there on the spot, perfectly…
I started getting flooded with chills like a waterfall, crying, and trembling.
He stayed with me for 10 minutes in my driveway. until I got outta the car.
A couple months after that I started getting amazing prayers answered way more often, because it helped me quit doubting when I pray and I was lined up with biblical instructions. It's 6 years later and I still get answered prayers in Jesus name.
Do you have conversations with him like you have with a person…..do you hear him answering you?
@@robbiebobbie2011 No. That's very rare for me. But, let me share a bit more. There have been 3 or 4 people healed from stage four cancer at one church I go to. Another woman was healed of cancer there not to long ago.
A deaf woman had hearing restored in another church.
A few years ago a woman called me out of the blue and told me her schizophrenia was completely healed after I prayed for her years ago.
A few years ago, I told a co-worker 2 stories and asked if I could pray for him and he said yeah. I prayed for his family, his finances, and things. I came to work 4 days later. He said he had gotten promoted to GM Manager over a bunch of different stores. Getting paid from 900 to 1600 and his wife was getting insane overtime hours. I mentioned that we prayed and he looked at me like he saw a ghost.
@@Cerulean9002 did the people you prayed for get medical treatment?
@@robbiebobbie2011 They were going to the hospital, but stage four cancer, can't just heal miraculously overnight like that from what I understand. Stage four means you're in the stage, where it's so out of control you're certainly going to die. But, those people weren't from my prayers. The whole church was praying for them. I only prayed for one of them. The woman that had schizophrenia, took medication to help her cope with it, but it wasn't a cure. I don't think there is a cure for schizophrenia. The deaf woman, was cured when the church prayed as well. I don't know if she was getting treatment, but since she came and told the church she was healed by Jesus, I assume it probably wasn't from doctors. Not sure if there is an actual cure for deafness either.
@@Cerulean9002 this is the problem us unbelievers have is how would you know a God did the healing if they were seeking medical treatment?
I had been searching for what happened AFTER Christs ascension from a non bias perspective. This is awesome!
If Jesus is real...why not go to the source, why waste time asking people they have bias. God reveal himself to those who earnestly seek him
@@michi-bi fortunately I wasn’t asking people. And also fortunately I’ve prayed about it and these sources confirmed most of what the Holy Spirit revealed to me. Amen
@@lydiab6072 that's great you got to know the Holy Spirit, but I was wondering why you thought this was non bias perspective.most People are polarized to either run from God or seek God.
Amen. for the kingdom of heaven is within you. Jesus showed us how to get there. For God is within.
**Supposed Ascension .... it didn't happen c'mon. Dude died, if he ever existed at all as described in the bible.
Were are we now as far as Christian goes ? Meaning were do we as Christians stand today? And why? As far as me I do believe in CHRIST and our GOD THE Father ❤❤❤❤❤
Hallelujah Amen. Thank You Jesus for your love and kindness for humanity ❤
This is the day that the Lord has made. I will rejoice and be glad in it. 🎉
I have my Bachelor’s and Master’s in History, but chose to devote my career after the military to teaching public school. I'm also a senior leader at my church. I have used Frontline in senior high classes, so it wouldn't have surprised me if this series was a little skewed against Christianity. Actually, what I found was a theme that tried to stay purely historical on a subject that has a foundation of the spiritual and miraculous; no small feat. Because of this, the narrative had to operate without the Holy Spirit, which gives them great license to speculate in many different ways. I think the narrative and the scholars did a pretty good job of staying historical. In fact, a couple of the scholars almost seemed apologetic as they presented their views, as if they had more to share, but had to stick with the narrative. Regardless of whether the scholars were believers or not, most of them kept pretty neutral as far as spiritual matters went. Overall, I found this very interesting, as well as informative. One way of presenting a man (and for some of us God) and movement that had an unsurpassed impact on the history of the world.

Hello 👋 how are you doing today? I pray2024 brings happiness, peace and love all over the world 🌎🌎🌎I’m originally from Canada grow up in Fort Worth Texas, currently living in Key West Florida. Where are you from if i may ask?
I thank you so much.

As a Christian I found this to be so enlightening and powerful. I am so honored and grateful to be an heir of the Kingdom of God. These early Christians are what we need to look to and remember when we feel being a Christian is just too hard.
☄️THE GOSPEL OF THE WORD OF ALMIGHTY GOD "the last age in which God saves man from the destruction of this old world"
(In the Age of the Kingdom, God uses the word to initiate a new age, change the way He works, and do the work of the entire age. This is the principle God uses to work in the Age of the Word. Such work is done to better achieve the goals of conquering man, perfecting man, and eliminating man, which is the true meaning of using words to work in the Word Age. Through these, these, the man is being exposed, taken away, and tested. People have seen God's words, heard these words, and acknowledged their existence. The word "words" can be please and ordinary, but the words spoken from the mouth of God incarnate shake the universe, they change people's hearts, change their thoughts and former dispositions, and change the former form of the whole world. From this time on, man lives under the guidance of God's words, guided and sustained by His words. These words and deeds are all for the salvation of man, to fulfill the will of God, and to change the original form of the world of the previous creation. God created the world with words, He guides people throughout the universe with words, and He conquers and saves them with words. Ultimately, He will use the words to bring an end to the entire old world, thereby completing the entirety of His plan of government.)
Almighty God said
In the AGE OF THE KINGDOM, GOD USES the WORD to START the NEW AGE, CHANGE the way He works, and do the WORK of the entire age. This is the principle that GOD USES in WORKING in the AGE of the WORD. He became a MAN to speak from different perspectives, so that MAN CAN REALLY SEE GOD, who is the WORD APPEARING IN THE FLESH, and behold His WISDOM and WONDER.🙏
SUCH WORK IS DONE to better ACHIEVE the GOALS of SUBJECTING MAN, making MAN PERFECT, and eliminating man, which is the TRUE MEANING of using WORDS to WORK in the AGE of the WORD. ☀️🙏
THROUGH these words, MAN KNOWS God's work, God's disposition, MAN'S SPIRIT, and WHAT MAN SHOULD ENTER. THROUGH the WORDS, the ENTIRE WORK that GOD wants to DO in the AGE of the WORD is FULFILLED. THROUGH these WORDS, PEOPLE are exposed, removed, and tried. PEOPLE have SEEN the WORDS of GOD, HEARD these WORDS, and recognized the existence of these WORDS. 🙏
Because of this, they have believed in the EXISTENCE of GOD, in the infinite POWER and WISDOM of GOD, as well as in GOD'S LOVE for MAN and His only SAVE MAN. THE WORD "words" may be simple and ordinary, but the words spoken from the mouth of God incarnate shake the UNIVERSE, they CHANGE PEOPLE'S HEARTS, CHANGE their mindsets and former DISPOSITIONS, and CHANGE the former form of the whole WORLD. 🙏💐
THROUGH THE AGES, only the GOD of TODAY HAS DONE in this way, and He is the only one who SPEAKS LIKE THAT and comes to SAVE MAN like that. From this TIME, MAN LIVES UNDER THE GUIDANCE OF GOD'S WORDS, guided and sustained by His WORDS. 🙏
PEOPLE LIVE in the WORLD of GOD'S WORDS, IN THE MIDST of the curses and blessings of GOD'S WORDS, and even more people begin to LIVE UNDER THE JUDGMENT and PUNISHMENT of His WORDS. These WORDS and ACTIONS are ALL for the SALVATION of MAN, to FULFILL the WILL of GOD, and to CHANGE the ORIGINAL form of the WORLD of the previous CREATION.☀️
GOD CREATED THE WORLD with WORDS, He GUIDES PEOPLE throughout the UNIVERSE with WORDS, and He CONQUERS and SAVES them with WORDS. 🙏
At LAST, He WILL USE WORDS to END the entire former WORLD, thereby completing the ENTIRENESS of His PLAN of GOVERNMENT. 🙏
Throughout the AGE of the KINGDOM, GOD USES WORDS to DO His WORK, and achieve the RESULTS of His WORK. He does NOT work wonders or perform miracles, but only does His work through words. Because of these WORDS, MAN IS CARED for and fed, and gains KNOWLEDGE and TRUE EXPERIENCE. ☀️
In the AGE of the WORD, MAN is greatly blessed. He does not suffer physical pain and only enjoys an abundant supply of God's words; without having to narrowly search or travel, in the midst of His comfort, he sees the manifestation of God, he HEARS Him SPEAK from His OWN mouth, he ACCEPTS what He gives, and personally baptizes Him to do His WORK.
These are things that people in previous ages did not enjoy, and these are blessings they will never receive. 🙏

Should Men Think Only About Jesus While Masturbating?
This guy has the perfect documentary voice...
IIt's odd that I don't have the patience for 5 minutes of a Sunday sermon, but I can happily listen to scripture in a 4 hour acedemic approach.
Not odd at all. It's called sanity.
As a biblical Christian I find this doc quite useful.
There are those that say Christ Himself is a myth.
A superficial breeze through history quashes that belief and renders the opinion of those who believe there was no Christ to be invalid.
(I know, today, all opinions are valid. But in reality they are not.)
I take comfort that Christ is the enemy of present and ancient world systems.
Ever ask why?
He used no army.
Never robbed stole killed lied or anything that could be considered a crime.
His only crime was truth.
His followers are taught to forgive their enemies.
Pray for those that despitefully use you.
Turn the other cheek.
Can’t get more non threatening than that.
So why the vitriol ?
Simple.
“ men, love darkness, rather than the light, because their deeds are evil.”
Nutshell.
They hated Jesus because His very presence exposes our deeds and makes us rethink our actions.
Now more than ever.
God is real. Thank you for finding me when I was lost for 30 years.
God bless you
I so appreciate this Thankyou and GOD bless you in JESUS MIGHTY NAME AMEN 🙏✝️🙏

This is what was possible in 1998, and it made it on public tv. There is even more being shared now. Keep looking folks and it will be revealed to you
The theology of the death, life and resurrection of Jesus is way much more complete than this people make it... Paul was already talking about his death and resurrection before Matthew wrote his gospel and the early Christian had a reach understanding of the Law and the Torah which they always used to prove their points of view. It is not as simplistic as some of these people seem to make it... they were quite sophisticated for their time.
Many have chosen their spiritual direction, the finalization process begins.
Yep! So it begins! Like its been beginning for the last 4000 years...
Here it comes! The finalization! Yep this time is the time! I can feel it!
Thank you Agnes and Violet Alex and Joe
Thank you for this. Its a very balanced view on Christianity and its origins.
Glad I read the Bible for myself. Jesus is coming back, and He never lies.
What did you think of Matthew and John using Mark to write their stories?
Nupuqi Om-Re Khonectics chamber degrees will guide you
Curious about the story of him being in the garden of Gethsemane. If he went up all alone to pray and his apostles were all sleeping, how does anyone write about this if there were no witnesses?
@@peanut924 - Hi! This is one of the roles of the Holy Spirit. John 14:26 says the Holy Spirit will teach you all things and bring to remembrance all that I have said to you. 2 Timothy 3:16 says all scripture is given by inspiration of God (HS) and 2 Peter 1:19-21 says, For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man, but holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Spirit. So, we can trust that since all things are possible with God, even if the apostles were asleep at the time, they were taught by the Holy Spirit what they should write.
Thank you for this wonderful document. Please pray for my country. Recently, there has been a heat in my country between Buddhists and Christians about Jesus. There is a famous Buddhist Monk who claimed on social media that Jesus went to India before he started his ministry and after he was crucified on the cross based on some books (Jesus Lived in India by Holger Kersten) (Life of Saint Issa by Nicolas Notovitch) and a BBC documentary (Jesus was a Buddhist Monk). It is so sad to see those books and documents lead people away from God. More than 90% of people in my country are Buddhist, and they fell for that too. Can you make the document to prove those claims were wrong or anyone can provide the source to prove that those claims were wrong? Please pray for the lost sheep🙏🙏
Watched this during Holy Week 2024. Great docu on the historical Yeshuwa.

The creators of this show did an absolutely amazing job.. So well done. So historically accurate and interesting. Thank you for this..
FRONTLINE one of the BEST in the documentary world! thank you for sharing!
I see this movie as a collaboration between a faction of Christians and Jews trying to hide the true ethnic origins of the Biblical Hebrews.
What I find amazing is how they went into such explicit detail without revealing that the Bible is a black history book. All of the biblical icons were Africans.
The Biblical Hebrews were not called Jews and the Messiah's name wasn't Jesus. They and the people of that era referred to them as Hebrews or Hebrew Israelites.
The iconic images in this video of the one they call Christ looks like an Irishman. The deception is intentional.
The Old Testament established their was no physical differences between the Egyptians, Hebrews, and the Ethiopians. Physically you could only tell them apart by their clothing and their ornaments. The demographics in the Holy Land have changed quite significantly due to war and mass migration.
How can you talk about the first Christians and Hebrews and not mention their establishment in Ethiopia. How can you talk about the Hebrews without talking about those that settled in Ethiopia and in West and South Africa after the destruction of Jerusalem.
It really gets scary to the church and the synagogue. The first Africans to be deported in the transatlantic slave trade were biblical Hebrews.
People in this country who try to dodge the responsibility for slavery by proclaiming other African tribes were selling other Africans into slavery. There's a part of that story that was intentionally left out. The biblical Hebrews tribe of Yudah living in West Africa were different from the other African tribes. They were singled out to be the first captured Africans sold into the transatlantic slave trade in the Western Hemisphere.
This information must be terrifying to the church and present-day Jews. Present-day Jews converted to Judaism in 740 AD under King Bulan. The European Jew therefore has no archaeological, genetic, or historical connection to the original biblical hebrews.
They are European gentiles who lived in the Kazarian Empire. They always lived between the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea and as far north as the present day city of Keiv.
The devil has deceived the whole world. This video is an intentional attempt to deceive and distract. It's an attempt to explain Christianity as a European religion when actually the Bible is a black history book. This video attempts to draw a connection between European Jews and the biblical Hebrews that did not exist. The biblical Hebrews were Africans. There was no physical difference between the Hebrew Israelites, Egyptians and the Ethiopians. They were all Africans.

Falling asleep to this for the nth time, praise the Lord
Constantine defeated Maxentius at the Battle of Milvian Bridge ... after winning the battle Constantine painted Maxentius as a persecutor of Christians ... while not pro-Christian, Max was tolerant of the faith ... it had already become established thru-out the empire and was a force to be reckoned with ... Constantine was more pragmatic and saw the benefit of getting the Christians on his side pronto-mundo ...and Constantine did not actually convert to Christianity until much later ... very near to his own death ... he claimed that as emperor he could not adhere to the compassionate teachings of the church ... it simply was not feasible to run the empire and be a good Christian ...actually quite true
Constantine did not start the Catholic Church, contrary to protestant narratives. It had been around for at least 300 years prior he used to walk in on masses and just observe & his mother Helena was a Catholic.
Thank you for such a GREAT DOCUMENTARY, it help increase my faith!

So so well done! The music, the visuals, the variety of scholars and analysts and the narration. All brilliant. Thank you. The Best Fronline ever.
Well, it's Jewish music. Literally. Cultural appropriation, including stealing ancient Jewish history as that of the "first Christians"... And stealing [and rewriting] Jewish scripture (5 Books of Moses - aka the Torah) ... And fetishizing persecution that was done to actual Jews, for being Jewish. Persecution for being revolutionary by daring to believe in only one God - a God that's _not_ a King or Ruler on Earth, as was common place in virtually every empire and kingdom at the time. The peasants worshipped their own oppressors as Gods, because they were indoctrinated to believe this for generations, and it was enforced by the Ruler's armies. Hence, why Jews were seen as a threat to these empires that'd go on to enslave, wage wars, invasions, coups, massacre, burn, and yes, crucify _all_ Jews (why put one life above hundreds of thousands killed exactly the same way? Why wear a symbol of these violent injustices around your neck?).
Josephus, whose, of course, carefully quoted throughout this series, was a Jewish slave to the Romans, forced to "author" their propaganda. They used his literacy and knowledge of Hebrew & Aramaic to translate, and literally rewrite thousands of years of documented Jewish history the Roman Empire plundered and burned. It's truly sickening that every historian knows Josephus (a Romanized name, not his real name) was a *slave* , and yet they continue to utilize this work as the singular source for the "history of the Jews"... Well, besides the Christian Bible, which is equally unkind to Jews and their history. It's obvious to anyone who reads Josephus, that it contains a myriad of fundamental historical and timeline inaccuracies, and further, note from the very first sentence how tainted the content is with Antisemitism. It goes to great pains to paint the Roman Invaders and Spartans as "victims" of "savage" Maccabeean fighters, fighting in self defense against Roman invasions that sought to end the Jewish people, during the 3 Roman-Jewish Wars (Jews won the first 2 against all odds, but in defensive wars, it only takes one loss to lose everything). Josephus was one of the only Jews at the time "allowed" to live outside of Judea. Judea, a small walled province that housed the only Jews "allowed" to remain on their own land, was the very first Jewish ghetto created by the Greco-Romans in Byzantine-occupied Israel. It was the first time Jews were banned from intermarriage with non-Jews, banned from practicing their religion, deprived of the most basic human rights; living segregated from society in an open air prison the size of an entire province.
Any sane person would take issue with the perpetrators of such inhumanity not only skipping over exactly _how_ Jews were persecuted throughout this period (likely because this is the part Christians don't want to "appropriate," given they've persecuted Jews in the exact same way many times over the last 2,000 yrs, and it never happened to a single Christian) - but then the gaslighting; pretending it happened to the "first Christians" instead, is just too much for anyone who knows this history to stay silent. The first Christians were never Jews at all - they were the Romans. Christianity was their "long game" to end Judaism. First by trying to trick Jews into believing in adopting their Messiah, then converting them to this centralized authorization doctrine (Judaism has no doctrine) that'd then exert incredible control over their free will. Jews have been persecuted in large part because they could not suspend disbelief and adopt new beliefs in superstition, or willingly adopt very dark & scary ideology (i.e. Satan, Hell, possession, demons, the afterlife, end of times prophecy, Revelations, tribulations, etc).
The Bible is an incredibly violent book. All of it. The Old Testament, btw, at most, only contains up to 0.5% Jewish text taken from the Torah. Judaism is not a scriptural religion, so it should go without saying the OT is not Jewish at all. Those who follow the OT are called _Fundamentalist Christians_ .
Anyways, didn't intend to go into all that... But the usage of straight-up Jewish prayer and worship songs, literally sung by a Cantor but edited so you can't hear the words being sung, in addition to using Jewish melodies as the music score for a documentary attempting to erase Jewish history as that of "early Christianity," really was a bridge too far. This was a privately funded "documentary" made by one of Frontline's sponsors, and distributed by Frontline in exchange for donations that help fund actual journalism. All of the so-called "scholars" are professors are private Christian universities (Duke, DePaul, etc), or Christian theologians, many teaching in Christian seminary schools (Harvard Divinity School, etc). Only 2 of them claim to be historians of any kind, but even they are just fringe authors whose work is only published by Christian and/or Church owned/affiliated publishing companies and universities.
This was a wonderful program. Please, keep investigating. We want to know the truth.
John 3:21 in JESUS name! Thank YOU! LORD!
No matter how smart you guys think ,you gonna answer to God one day !
If Jesus wasn’t a real man then he was at least a compilation of separate men doing great works of good and that’s almost more relatable as we are all human like him. I look at the bible like a litmus test, those who read it for the hidden wisdom for courage and those who read it in faith for comfort. It is beautiful either way.
It's a miracle in itself that Christianity has not only survived, but thrived over the centuries. There's something about it.
The people on here commenting how this series has a neutral or even worse positive or uplifting take on Christianity shouldn't reproduce. Seriously.
You people aren't listening.
Very little that is positive to humans or intellect is part of "Christianity". Nothing the Bible says was not said in other cultures. Christianity is a derivative of the good and bad of its predecessors. Accept this and you will see more clearly the entirety of the human experience.
THE CHRIST IS WITHIN ALL OF US!!!
Thank you, this is wonderful. Bless TMH.👑🕎
I hope that people look towards one another in kindness instead of catagorizeness.

There is some challenging info Christians may not want to believe. But I challenged myself and and my bias so none of this was offensive to me.

The Biblical Hebrews tribe of Yudah living in West Africa were different from the other West African tribes. They were singled out to be the first captured Africans sold into the transatlantic slave trade in the Western Hemisphere.
This information must be terrifying to the church and present-day Jews.
Present-day Jews converted to Judaism in 740 AD under King Bulan. The European Jew therefore has no archaeological, genetic, or historical connection to the original Biblical Hebrews.
Jews are European gentiles who lived in the Kazarian Empire. The kingdom occupied the region between the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea and as far north as the present day city of Keiv. When the new Jewish Kingdom eventually failed the people spread out across Eastern and Western Europe.
The devil has deceived the whole world. This video is an intentional attempt to deceive and distract. It's an attempt to explain Christianity as a European religion when actually the Bible is a black history book.
This video attempts to draw a connection between European Jews and the biblical Hebrews that did not exist. The Biblical Hebrews were Africans.
There was no physical difference between the Hebrew Israelites, Egyptians and the Ethiopians. They were all Africans and technically the holy land is in AFRICA.
@@paysour3 LOL you’re so misinformed it’s insane, keep believing your crazy conspiracy theories instead of being objective
@@paysour3 Intriguing subject. Did you write this piece yourself? You raise some interesting points, and I would like to learn more. I am not sure which scripture you are using but right off the bat I see a combination of both fact and fiction. It would be nice to get to the bottom of this argument once and for all.

Every knee will bow and every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is Lord. Bible prophecies are continuing to be fulfilled. Life and love are miracles from God each day.
