God, as an eternal being, doesn't have a "birth" in the human sense; most religions teach God is without beginning or end, existing "from everlasting to everlasting". In Christianity, Jesus (often called Christ, the Son of God) was born, traditionally celebrated on December 25th (Christmas), though historians estimate his birth was likely around 6-4 BC, linked to King Herod the Great's reign.
The date of the birth of Jesus is not stated in the gospels or in any historical sources and the evidence is too incomplete to allow for consistent dating. However, most biblical scholars and ancient historians believe that his birth date is around 6 to 4 BC.
The Jubilee of 2033
The year 2033 will be of exceptional significance for the Christian community and the entire world. This extraordinary year will mark the 2000th anniversary of the Redemption, an event that highlights the passion, death, and resurrection of Jesus Christ, the foundation of Christian faith.
Now, the Christian answer to this is that God didn't come from anything. God has just always been there. He has always existed. This is what the Bible means when it says that God is “from everlasting to everlasting” (1 Chron.
Answer. God is eternal, so he doesn't have an age. As Timothy wrote, "Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only God, be honor and glory for ever and ever. Amen" (1 Tim.
777 is considered the number of God (or divine perfection) in Christian and biblical traditions because it's a powerful emphasis of the number 7, symbolizing divine completeness, perfection, and holiness, often linked to the Holy Trinity (Father, Son, Holy Spirit) and representing the perfect fulfillment of God's work, contrasting with the imperfection of 666 (Beast). While not explicitly named as God's number, its symbolism stems from the pervasive use of '7' for perfection in the Bible, like creation in seven days, with 777 being a triple reinforcement of this divine attribute.
Yes, historical consensus confirms that Jesus lived approximately 2,000 years ago in the region of modern-day Israel/Palestine, with most scholars placing his birth around 4-6 BC and his death around 30 AD, fitting within that timeframe, though details are debated. There's significant historical evidence for his existence from both Christian and non-Christian sources of the era.
God did not simply create the universe and then step out of the picture. God created all things and continues to sustain them. He didn't just bring the world into existence, but He continues to preserve it and maintain it.
God tells us 365 times in His Word: “Fear not.” Why? Because He is with you.
Bethlehem lies 10 kilometres south of the city of Jerusalem, in the fertile limestone hill country of the Holy Land. Since at least the 2nd century AD people have believed that the place where the Church of the Nativity, Bethlehem, now stands is where Jesus was born.
Year zero does not exist in the Anno Domini (AD) calendar year system commonly used to number years in the Gregorian calendar and Julian calendar. Instead, AD 1 is treated as the epoch, so that the year 1 BC is followed directly by year AD 1.
We believe in the second coming of Christ. His return from heaven will be personal, visible and glorious, a blessed hope for which we should constantly watch and pray.
Yeshua was said to be 33 years old at the time of his crucifixion and resurrection. Whether you believe that literally or symbolically, the Christ Year—your 33rd year of life—is often seen as a spiritual initiation. A time when the soul is called to deeper service, deeper truth and deeper surrender.
Using the numbers associated with the genealogies in Genesis, Exodus, Kings, and Chronicles, Ussher and Lightfoot determined that Adam was created on October 23 at 9 a.m., 45th meridian time, in 4004 BC. Their determination presumed that these genealogies were exhaustive—with no generations missing.
When Hezekiah pleaded that his life would be prolonged, the Lord said, "I will heal thee: . . . And I will add unto thy days fifteen years. . . ." (2 Kings 20:5-6.) Bishop Vandenberg said: "Thus the Lord granted Hezekiah's request to extend his life.
So we can think of it as “Yahweh God.” From that point, Yahweh appears over 7,000 additional times in the Bible. It is by far the most common way the biblical writers referred to God, and that makes sense because it's His name.
God doesn't want us to go a single day without hearing his word of comfort: “Fear not!” Actually, as I share in my book Your Best Life In Jesus' Easy Yoke, there are way more than 365 “Fear nots” in the Bible! Thank God because everyday we need to be reminded to “Fear not” and trust God's loving presence.
Also worth noting, the word “wisdom” is mentioned 222 times in scripture. Lastly, Acts 2:22 is the only scripture in the whole of the Bible that mentions “signs, miracles and wonders” in the same verse.
The majority of prominent conceptions of God explicitly or effectively posit a being whose existence is not testable either by proof or disproof. Therefore, the question of God's existence may lie outside the purview of modern science by definition.
2025 is the Jubilee Holy Year, the 2,025th anniversary of the Incarnation of our Lord, an "event of great spiritual, ecclesial, and social significance in the life of the Church." The concept of "Jubilee" has its origins in the Book of Leviticus (chapter 25) as a special year of reconciliation, pilgrimage, and coming ...
Elon Musk's beliefs have evolved; while previously skeptical, he recently stated he believes "God is the Creator" and the universe came from "something," though he avoids strict religious labels, identifying more as a "cultural Christian" who values Christian principles for boosting happiness and birth rates, rather than subscribing to all traditional doctrines. He acknowledges a higher power but distinguishes this from a judging, moralistic deity, focusing on the creative origin of the cosmos.
At this time, there is no DNA test that can identify a person, especially one that has been deceased for centuries. We're getting closer, though. Geneticists have been studying ancient bones collected from Israel and Bulgaria including alleged bones from John the Baptist.
The Bible is silent about Jesus' life between ages 12 and 30, known as the "Lost Years," but scholars generally believe he worked as a carpenter (or stonemason) with his stepfather Joseph in Nazareth, learned Jewish traditions, and prepared for his public ministry, though some fringe theories suggest travels to India or Egypt. These theories lack historical evidence, with most scholars pointing to a quiet, formative period rooted in his Jewish upbringing and family responsibilities.
I am a Jew, but I am enthralled by the luminous figure of the Nazarene." Einstein was then asked if he accepted the historicity of Jesus, to which he replied, "Unquestionably! No one can read the Gospels without feeling the actual presence of Jesus. His personality pulsates in every word.
