The "Completely Out Of Touch" Series
#1
Shlama Akhay,

Welcome to the "Completely Out Of Touch" Series! <!-- sSmile --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/smile.gif" alt="Smile" title="Smile" /><!-- sSmile -->

In part 1, I'm quoting "New Testament Origin" by George Lamsa, page 12....

[QUOTE] Prior to the rise of the British Empire the Christians in Europe had no real contacts with those of the Near East. They knew very little about Eastern customs and Semitic languages. This may be the reason that DaVinci pictures Jesus, the Virgin Mary, and the fishermen apostles as dressed in costly crimson robes instead of in simple peasant garments. [END OF QUOTE]

In part 2, Italy and France are given the "cold shoulder" for 1,200 years!!

[QUOTING PAGE 13 OF "NEW TESTAMENT ORIGIN"......] It is interesting to know that, from the time of St. Paul to the thirteenth century, only one Christian prelate from the East was able to visit Italy and France. That was Barsoma, a Mongolian Christian. He was sent to Europe by Khan Argun, King of the East, in the year 1287. Pope Nicholas V was surprised to hear that the church of the East had survived pagan and Moslem persecutions. Barsoma, the church and state representative of King Argun, was amazed to find that there were Christians in Europe. [END OF QUOTE]

Can anyone translate from German? I can understand some of the parts from minute 3:00 onwards, wish I could understand what he's saying.

The Church pictured is nearly 1,900 years old, it was built by the Magi who returned to Iran.

What an awesome video! We both need a meturgeman this time. <!-- sSmile --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/smile.gif" alt="Smile" title="Smile" /><!-- sSmile -->
One of the related videos says "Nestorian Stele" evidently referring to the ornate engraving on that large stone.
This could be the most ancient remains of a Nestorian sanctuary in existence! I'm wondering if prelates of the COE of the present-day would concur with that. <!-- s:lookround: --><img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/lookround.gif" alt=":lookround:" title="Look Round" /><!-- s:lookround: --> Nice find, akh!
