 <\/p>\n

Me:\u00a0 What are you standing on?<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Prodigal:\u00a0 This is just an artifact from this original building from over a hundred years ago.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Me:\u00a0 Very nice!\u00a0 I like to learn from history at times.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Prodigal:\u00a0 Me too, I don’t mind hearing from the past.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Me:\u00a0 Well I was just reading from a Jewish archaeologist.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Prodigal:\u00a0 Please share!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Dr. Nelson Glueck a Jewish Archaeologist wrote in his book Rivers in the Desert<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

It may be stated categorically that no archaeological discovery has ever controverted a Biblical reference.\u00a0 Scores of archaeological findings have been made which confirm in clear outline or in exact detail historical statements in the Bible.\u00a0 And by the same token, proper evaluation of Biblical descriptions has often led to amazing discoveries.<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Three hundred seventy-seven clay tablets were found belonging to the two Pharaohs who ruled in 1500-1400 B.C., which accurately described the events of the Exodus.<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Science and belief in the Bible do not have to be a separate thing!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

1 John 2:1-2<\/p>\n

My little children, I am writing these things to you so that you may not sin.\u00a0 But if anyone does sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous.\u00a0 He is the propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only but also for the sins of the whole world.<\/p>\n
