Could the most devastating propaganda blow against Christianity be unfolding now?

NEWS BRIEF: "Jesus’ burial site found", by Ariella Ringel-Hoffman, YNET News, February 23, 2007
"New film documents discovery of Jerusalem cave containing ten caskets believed to hold remains of Jesus, Mary, Mary Magdalene and others. The cave in which Jesus Christ was buried has been found in Jerusalem, claim the makers of a new documentary film. If it proves true, the discovery, which will be revealed at a press conference in New York Monday, could shake up the Christian world as one of the most significant archeological finds in history. The coffins which, according to the filmmakers held the remains of Jesus of Nazareth, his mother Mary and Mary Magdalene will be displayed for the first time on Monday in New York."
If this claim can be made to appear authentic, the Christian Church world will be shaken as never before, and many Christians weak in knowledge of doctrine could very well lose their faith. In fact, since the Christian Church is weakened as never before because of lack of Biblical knowledge, the acceptance of worldly and occult methods within the Church, and by preaching a watered-down Salvation Plan, the entire Church could wobble from this claim.
Let us now return to this article for more information.
"The story starts in 1980 in Jerusalem’s Talpiyot neighborhood, with the discovery of a 2,000 year old cave containing ten coffins. Six of the ten coffins were carved with inscriptions reading the names: Jesua son of Joseph, Mary, Mary, Matthew, Jofa (Joseph, identified as Jesus’ brother), Judah son of Jesua (Jesus’ son - the filmmakers claim)."
"The findings in the cave, including the decipherment of the inscriptions, were first revealed about ten years ago by internationally renowned Israeli archeologist Professor Amos Kloner. Since their discovery, the caskets were kept in the Israeli Antiquities Authority archive in Beit Shemesh, but now two have been sent to New York for their first public exhibition. Although the cave was discovered nearly 30 years ago and the casket inscriptions decoded ten years ago, the filmmakers are the first to establish that the cave was in fact the burial site of Jesus and his family." (Ibid.)
Of course, the entire lie of the DaVinci Code is that Jesus never died in the tomb, but was revived and gotten out of the tomb by his disciples, who bribed the Roman guards. His supposed wife, Mary Magdalene, escaped the wave of persecution which killed Jesus and travelled to the Coast of Normandy, France. She gave birth to a daugher, whom Jesus had sired, and later married this daughter to a Merovingian Prince. The nobility families of Europe, Russia and Great Britain, can all trace their lineage back to the Merovingians. Therefore, when Antichrist arises from within the Merovingian bloodline, he can trace his lineage through Jesus and therefore, directly to King David (Read our expose' on this most important, and exciting subject, NEWS2123).
Obviously, if this Da Vinci Code ("Holy Blood, Holy Grail") story were true, Jesus' body would be lying somewhere in a cave. In fact, this book, "Holy Blood, Holy Grail", strongly hinted that the secret societies had discovered Jesus' body many centuries ago, and were awaiting "just the right time" to reveal it to the world!
What might that "right time" be? Just before the appearance of the Masonic Christ, of course! For, just before his sttaged appearance on the world scene, a major effort must be made to conivnce the world that Jesus never resurrected. Not only would millions of nominal Christians suffer a loss of faith, but the vast majority of the world would feel safe in believing that Jesus Christ was simply another "World Teacher", an Avatar, on the basis of Buddha, Krishna, Mohammed, and other Avatars of other religions. Therefore, when Antichrist will claim that he is possessed of the same "Christ Consciousness Spirit" as possessed Buddha, Krishna, Mohammed -- Jesus -- all in their own time periods, people will believe him more readily. Few people will protest that this story pouring from the lips of Antichrist cannot be true, because Jesus resurrected.
The final matter to be understood is that this spurious story is being backed by some of the greatest "heavy hitters" in Mass Media.
"The film, which documents the stages of the discovery, is the result of three years labor and research. It will be broadcast on the international Discovery Channel, Britain's Channel 4, Canada’s Vision and Israel’s Channel 8, which also took part in the film's production. " (Ibid.)
That lineup is quite impressive. The Discovery Channel, in particular, has the reputation of being quite scientific and very impartial. When they air this documentary, a lot of people will be convinced.
This film also will trot out quite of number of "experts" to solidify their claim.
"According to the filmmakers, the film’s claim is based on close work with world-famous scientists, archeologists, statisticians, DNA specialists and antiquities experts."
How important to the Christian faith is the belief that Jesus rose from His grave? While we can offer only a short segment to this subject, we encourage you to read a treatise from the International Standard Bible Dictionary on "The Resurrection of Jesus Christ".
* 1 Thessalonians 4:14 - "For since we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so God will also bring with Him through Jesus those who have fallen asleep in death." (Parallel Bible, KJV/Amplified Bible Commentary)
The dead bodies of saints will arise because Jesus bodily rose first. If Jesus did not rise, then the hope of the resurrection of the dead is also an empty, futile hope.
* Romans 1:4 - "And as to His divine nature, according to the Spirit of holiness, was openly designated the Son of God in power, in a striking, triumphant and miraculous manner by His resurrection from the dead, even Jesus Christ our Lord (the Messiah, the Anointed One)." (Parallel Bible, KJV/Amplified Bible Commentary)
In other words, Jesus' resurrection proves His Divine Nature! If He did not rise, then He cannot be proven to be Divine, and hence our faith is in vain.
* 1 Corinthians 15:14 - And if Christ has not risen, then our preaching is in vain, it amounts to nothing, and your faith is devoid of truth and is fruitless, without effect, empty, imaginary, and unfounded." (Parallel Bible, KJV/Amplified Bible Commentary)
* 1 Corinthians 14:17-18 -- "And if Christ has not been raised, your faith is mere delusion [futile, fruitless], and you are still in your sins under the control and penalty of sin; And further, those who have died in spiritual fellowship and union with] Christ have perished are lost!" (Parallel Bible, KJV/Amplified Bible Commentary)
The entire Christian faith is immediately cast upon the rocks if it can "be proven" that Jesus never resurrected. Of course, in the world of propaganda, what is "truth"? The Master Illuminist, Adolf Hitler, answered this question for us, once and for all, when he said:
"Truth is not what is; truth is what people perceive it to be".
Prepare yourself, Christian, for your faith may be tested as never, ever before. God is selecting for Himself a people who will have faith in Him and His Son like never before. We may be witnessing this particular prophecy:
"Then at Mount Sinai, His voice shook the earth, but now He has given a promise: Yet once more I will shake and make tremble not only the earth but also the starry heavens. Now this expression, 'Yet once more', indicates the final removal and transformation of all that can be shaken--that is, of that which has been created--in order that what cannot be shaken may remain and continue." (Hebrews 12:26-27; (Parallel Bible, KJV/Amplified Bible Commentary)
After this mighty storm of Satan has swept over the earth, the number of Christians who retained their faith may be very small. These are the true Christians, whose faith "cannot be shaken". All other peoples and weak Christians will suffer the shaking of their rootless faith so that they will lose what little faith they did possess.
Truly, this event must be considered another "Sign of the Times", which herald the coming of the Masonic Christ, which the Bible identifies as "Antichrist", coming at the same time when so many other prophecies have either been fulfilled, or are about to be fulfilled!
These are exciting times for genuine Christians, for we shall have unparalled opportunity to share our Christian faith with unbelievers and skeptics. Will you know the facts enough to be able to defend your Rock-Solid Faith?
As this resurrection dissertation, above, states:
" If we are not allowed to believe in any divine intervention which we may call supernatural or miraculous, it is impossible to account for the Person of Christ at all ... No Christian, therefore, can have any difficulty in accepting the abnormal, the unusual, the miraculous ... Thomas Arnold of Rugby, no ordinary judge of historical evidence, said that the resurrection was the "best-attested fact in human history." Christianity welcomes all possible sifting, testing, and use by those who honestly desire to arrive at the truth, and if they will give proper attention to all the facts and factors involved, we believe they will come to the conclusion expressed years ago by the Archbishop of Armagh, that the resurrection is the rock from which all the hammers of criticism have never chipped a single fragment."
To this, we can only exclaim, "Praise the Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ", and "Come Quickly, Lord Jesus!"
