Christian Persecution Thread on The Plain Truth's Message Board 

The Myth of Artificial Intelligence comes at a time when it is intellectually fashionable to denigrate the human capacity for creativity and knowledge creation. We are continually reminded that we are biased, irrational, prone to misinformation, stubborn, and unreasonable. Bob Barney exposes the fallacy of so-called "smart phones" and AI.

The Age of AI

Why Do We Celebrate Christmas? 

Was Jesus actually born on December 25th?  Why do we celebrate Christmas on the winter solstice? We are going to travel back in time over 4000 years and find out what history has to say about what the enemy is really trying to hide. 

This video is worth watching every second! The host does a great job presenting the facts and making sure it is scripture that is highlighted, not our feelings. The Plain Truth is about presenting the truths of God's Word and challenging our readership on the topic of Christmas. Is Jesus really supposed to be a part of it? Don't we want to be obedient to Christ? 

Why was Christmas Banned in America?

It may seem like Christmas has always been celebrated in the United States, but that's not the case. In fact, Christmas was banned in America for several decades by Christians themselves. Most Americans today are unaware that Christmas was banned in Boston from 1659 to 1681. The original war on Christmas was waged during the sixteenth and seventeenth century by Puritans, or Protestant Christians who believed that people needed strict rules to be religious and that any kind of merrymaking was sinful. Shocking as it sounds, Christians in both America and England helped pass laws making it illegal to observe Christmas, believing it was an insult to God to honor a day associated with ancient paganism.

Bob Barney briefly explains in this broadcast the origins, traditions, and the practices of Christmas which are unmistakably pagan and outside of the biblical faith. It challenges the common view that Christmas was and is a Christian celebration and calls for a biblical perspective...

The silent years of Jesus between 12 and 30 and an examination of the historical records concerning Joseph of Arimathea the great uncle of Jesus as a provincial Roman Senator and metal merchant. It was rumored that he owned many of the merchant ships that came to England from Rome and Phoenicia to barter for metal and other goods. Did Jesus accompany his uncle to this isle of the west? Mr. Capt reveals that there is substantial evidence to support that he did.

EXCERPT: One day a small boat from one of the large merchant ships anchored in the Bristol Channel tied up at the causeway of the Lake Village. A bearded man and a slim young boy in his early teens stepped ashore. They were no strangers to the villagers who crowded around to welcome them. The merchant had been coming by their village for many years on his way to the lead mines of the Mendip Hills. It was known that he held a very important position in the powerful Roman government and carried the title "Nobilus Decurio". It was rumored that he owned many of the merchant ships that came to these Isle of the West from Rome and Phoenicia to barter for metal and other goods.

The auburn-haired lad was also known. He had accompanied His uncle on a prior visit staying at the village and exploring the surrounding territory while His uncle conducted his business at the nearby Mendip lead mines. But this time a woman perhaps in her early thirties was with them. As the boy helped the woman ashore the crew proceeded to unload various sized chests and sacks obviously belonging to them. Accommodations were soon found and the baggage was carried to one of the tiny huts facing the estuary.

In the weeks that followed the merchant, and the boy constructed a wattle hut similar to those of the village on a nearby island. The site they chose was at the base of a hill from which ran a spring of fresh water. Hawthorne and oak trees dotted the landscape. Small game and fish were in abundance and the marshy fertile shores promised bountiful crops. When the hut was finished the woman and the boy moved from the village to their new home. The merchant and his men sailed away.
Jesus and His mother Mary were alone . . .

At first glance, one might think E. Raymond Capt must be an ordained minister. He quotes chapters and verses from the Scriptures and talks about Bible characters in a flowing narrative which would credit any pulpit. What he’s been, for over forty years, though, is a practicing archaeologist - not always digging to unearth ancient remains, but in recent years, sifting through known archaeological findings to shed new light on the history of the Bible.

Capt holds a Master of Arts degree in Christian History and Biblical Archaeology from Covenant College, Lake Wales, Florida, and California State teaching credentials in Biblical Archaeology and History. He is also a member of the Archaeological Institute of America. In addition to writing, Capt has produced and presents slide and film lectures on Biblical Archaeology. These have been enjoyed by clubs, churches, and schools in many states and in Great Britain.

In 1972, Capt was elected a Fellow of the Society of Antiquaries of Scotland, and in 1976 received an honorary Doctorate of Literature (Doctor Literarum Honoris Causa) from the Accademia Testina Per Le Scienze, (established A.D. 450) Pescara, Italy.

A three-part broadcast on the fate of The United States as compared to the Roman Empire by Bob Barney...

 To Roman citizens living in the glitter of empire — enjoying an explosive frenzy of building, with huge cities, bejeweled with rising marble columns, with paved, pleasant tree-lined avenues and rushing fountains; seeing the victory parades through triumphal arches of yet additional conquests; hearing of the exploits of this or that great general — Rome was impregnable. She was the world — and the world was Rome.
   To speculate for one brief moment that all this could soon collapse — that the ravages of wars, taxation, mounting crime, race riots, subversion from within, political assassinations, natural disasters and public apathy would one day bring Rome to utter collapse and ruin, was not only unimaginable to them — it was folly to the heights of idiocy.
   And to millions of American and British people today — the thought that America and Britain could suffer a similar fate — though with more modern consequences — seems equally ludicrous.
   But Rome fell.
