RICHARD DAWKINS DUPED AND FOOLED, EVOLUTION DOOMED, FLAWED - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z4KXD2zqzBA.
3000 year old beehives prove Bible verses, Deuteronomy 27:3 And thou shalt write upon them all the words of this law, when thou art passed over, that thou mayest go in unto the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee, a land that floweth with milk and honey; as the Lord God of thy fathers hath promised thee. The Beehives of Tel Rehov - http://www.sourceflix.com/vid_rehov.htm
First Beehives In Ancient Near East Discovered - http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2007/09/070904114558.htm
In September 2007 it was reported that that 30 intact beehives dated to the mid-10th century BCE to the early 9th century BCE were found by archaeologists in the ruins of Rehov.[2] The beehives were evidence of an advanced honey-producing beekeeping (apiculture) industry 3000 years ago in the city, then thought to have a population of about 2000 residents at that time, both Israelite and Canaanite. The beehives, made of straw and unbaked clay, were found in orderly rows of 100 hives.[3] Previously references to honey in ancient texts of the region (such as the phrase "land of milk and honey" in the Hebrew Bible) were thought to refer to honey derived from dates and figs; the discoveries show evidence of commercial production of honey and beeswax. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rehov, http://www.rehov.org/

II Chronicles 11:15

Then he appointed for himself priests for the high places, for the demons, and the calf idols which he had made.

The Old Testament frequently and disapprovingly mentions the fact that the Israelites often built "high places." The Bible indicates that high places were worship centers where a pagan religion or a mix of Israelite and Canaanite religion was practiced.

Until recently, high places found by archaeologists revealed little about these sites of false worship. However, the discovery of a high place at Rehov tells a much more complete story one consistent with what the Bible tells us. Its dating could make this high place one of those for which Rehoboam, son of Solomon, appointed priests. The sanctuary was a raised ten-foot square of mud brick. In the middle was a stone platform that was three feet square. One side of the platform had four large stones, two of them taller than the others. These may have been the "standing stones" mentioned in the Bible. In front of the platform was an offering table. Many of the bones of offered animals, often wild goats, were found at the site. Such offerings would have been against God's law. In addition, various figurines were found at the site. These included a bull, two female figures and another animal. Israel was forbidden to make such images.

This discovery challenges the skeptics and upholds the integrity of biblical history. Once again, the Bible's history has proven to be factual, even when reporting Israel's sins.

Prayer: Lord, preserve me from being misled in any way from Your truth. Amen.

  • Whoa. This video is shockingly flawed and biased!

  • yep and their is archaeoligical evidence to prove the koran. This just proves that your particular religion dates back to a certain time, but it does not prove gods existance.

  • @TheBikermanUK the historical Jesus isn't in question at all. There is indeed evidence outside of the scriptures. No credible historian doubts the existance of Jesus.

  • @Humbler25 The historical Jesus is very much in question. The only evidence is the scriptures and they are, putting it very mildly, suspect.

  • @Humbler25 There were over 40 writers who were active during the supposed life of Jesus. Not one of them even mentions him in passing.

    There's no mention of him in any Roman records, even regarding an arrest or crucifixion.

    Even the Nativity itself is contradicted by the bible.

    The 4 gospels were selected by the early church from about 30 and it was the church leaders who gave them the names they have now. No-one actually knows who wrote the gospels, but they were not anyone who knew Jesus.

  • It never ceases to amuse me how Christians will take any old piece of archaeology and twist it to fit their pre-concieved beliefs in the bible.

    The truth is that the only pieces of evidence that show anything about the bible relate to geographical places mentioned in it and no-one questions those.

    However, there is absolutely NO evidence regarding the events of the bible that are independantly verifiably accepted by expert achaeologists other than the bible itself.

    Not even Moses and the Exodus.

  • The theory of evolution gets stronger every day. You have a lot of wishful thinking.

  • @yeudh Actually there is lots of evidence that document a life lived by Jesus... consider reading "The Case for Christ", sure Stroebel has his critics, but that is a good place to start your study. Good luck!

  • @Humbler25 There is no evidence outside of the Bible that Jesus exist. One obscure reference by a Roman historian, but not a first hand account. Historians have not found any first hand accounts outside of the Bible. How you clam to have hundreds of pages. In my reading of history out side of the bible I have not came across these accounts. You would be good to share with the world these hundreds of pages. Please list these authors outside of the Bible that you referring to.
