My Guest next week will be R. Edwin Sherman, bible code researcher, founder of the Isaac Newton Bible Research Society (www.biblecodedigest.com), and the author of two books; Bible Code Bombshell and Buddha and Jesus: Could Solomon Be the Missing Link?   

Show notes from Jeff:  I briefly mentioned these items in passing.
  • Issue of earth being near the center (but NOT the center) of the universe - see the book: Starlight and Time: Solving the Puzzle of Distant Starlight in a Young Universe  by Dr. Russell Humphreys Ph.D.
  • Josh McDowell started out as an atheist but became a Christian after taking a critical look at the evidence.  See his website here:  http://www.josh.org/  and a compendium of his work here at Amazon
  • Dead Sea Scrolls: In 1948, famed archaeologist and leading Biblical scholar William Albright made the extraordinary claim that the Dead Sea Scrolls were “the greatest archaeological find of the 20th century.”
  • Many of the New Testament writers were writing from a first hand account with respect to being with Jesus including, Matthew, John, Peter, Jude, James, and Paul.  In fact, James and Jude were the earthly brothers of Jesus; they grew up in the same home as he did.  We also have the writings of the disciples of the apostles; for example, Polycarp was a disciple of John.  Mark was a disciple of Peter, and Luke was a disciple and traveling companion of Paul.  (see: The Forbidden Book)
  • "I claim to be an historian. My approach to Classics is historical. And I tell you that the evidence for the life, the death, and the resurrection of Christ is better authenticated than most of the facts of ancient history ..."  - E. M. Blaiklock - Professor of Classics, Auckland University
  • Gospel of Mark Fragments Reportedly Found; Possibly Oldest NT Artifacts  Dallas Theological Seminary professor Daniel B. Wallace has said that newly discovered fragments from the Gospel of Mark could be the oldest New Testament artifacts ever found and date from the first century A.D., or during the time of eyewitnesses of Jesus' resurrection.
  • Names in Genesis chapter 5 encoded with the gospel of Jesus Christ.
  • Coral-ized chariot parts in the Red Sea (Gulf of Aqaba) - Evidence of Moses leading the Israelites out of Egypt through the Red Sea.

My apologies to Beth.  My recording software was cutting her off after 15 minutes which caused her to lose her train of thought.  I rectified that problem in my interview with Mark Lowe.  I also apologize for not being fully engaged in the conversation.  I was too concerned about the recording equipment and watching the time.  It made me sound disengaged and not interested.  I only realized that after a friend pointed it out to me.

Show Notes from Jeff:   R. Edwin Sherman, bible code researcher, founder of the Isaac Newton Bible Research Society (www.biblecodedigest.com), and the author of two books; Bible Code Bombshell and Buddha and Jesus: Could Solomon Be the Missing Link?   

Show Notes from Beth:  Here is the list of FB pages that I admin and are related to atheism - the last three are part of the "Exposing Religion Network" which was developed by other people - I just participate as an admin, which means I throw content on there and try to keep things respectful:
  • Denying Evolution Won't Make Your God Any More Real - 1,000,000 likes?
  • Atheism - another word for Reality
  • New Slogan! What WwCHd? (What would Christopher Hitchens Do?)
  • Defriending Jesus
  • Strong Intelligent Women Choosing Equality & Freedom Instead of Religion
  • The Science Nexus Of Human Cognitive Evolution & The Extinction Of Religion
  • Debating The Untested, Unsubstantiated & Unproven Hypothesis Of Religions
I also write for the website: www.crocoduck.com

Hello Everyone
My first interview, if all goes well, will be this Thursday evening.  I hope to have the show on the web by the weekend after doing some post production work.  My guest will be a member of the LDS church (Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints) also known as Mormon.  I consider him a friend and hope to have a great discussion.  


Also, I was given universal broadcast rights to the song, Seeking Love, by Olivia Kay.  It's a perfect match for the Mars Hill Radio program and I think you will enjoy it.    


I also have a few others that want to do the show so please keep checking back. 


Thanks and God Bless,
Jeff
