Why Believe The Gospels - When were The Gospels Written?
Christadelphians Online
Tradition amongst Biblical Scholars is that the Gospels were written up to 100 years after the events that they describe; that is the ministry of Jesus, called the Christ of the 1st Century. We'll look at seven evidences, some internal, that show that this may not have been the case. What is the implication of this? Most obviously, is that the history and more importantly the claims of who Jesus was and did had a far more dynamic relivence to the Jewish world prior to the destruction of Jewry in AD70. His mission, through his teaching as being the son of God, was a witness to the Jewish people of why he had to die and be resurrected as evidence as being God's Messiah. This fact was of course, rejected by the leaders of his day but his first advent was proof of the Old Testament prophecies that his role as Saviour was first to the people of the Land before the Gospel teaching of a Coming World Age was then distributed to the Roman world and beyond. The Gospels record a future Kingdom on Earth and Jesus was and is portrayed as first, 'King of the Jews and then King over all the earth bringing peace to this evil world at a time fast approaching. Join with us and look at more evidence that the purpose of the Gospels is to teach the Good News of Jesus Christ's Return to restore God's Purpose with all mankind, after 2000 years of attempted universal enlightment since the Gospel was first preached.
⚠️ DOGS DIE IN HOT CARS. If you love them, don't leave them. ⚠️
It's a message we share time and time again, and this year, we're calling on you to help us spread that message further.
Did you know that calls to SPCA about dogs left inside hot cars made up a whopping 11% of all welfare calls last summer? This is a completely preventable issue, and one which is causing hundreds of dogs (often loved pets) to suffer.
Here are some quick facts to share with the dog owners in your life:
👉 The temperature inside a car can heat to over 50°C in less than 15 minutes.
👉 Parking in the shade and cracking windows does little to help on a warm day. Dogs rely on panting to keep cool, which they can't do in a hot car.
👉 This puts dogs at a high risk of heatstroke - a serious condition for dogs, with a mortality rate between 39%-50%.
👉 It is an offence under the Animal Welfare Act to leave a dog in a hot vehicle if they are showing signs of heat stress. You can be fined, and prosecuted.
SPCA has created downloadable resources to help you spread the message even further. Posters, a flyer, and a social media tile can be downloaded from our website here: www.spca.nz...
We encourage you to use these - and ask your local businesses to display the posters if they can. Flyers can be kept in your car and handed out as needed.
This is a community problem, and one we cannot solve alone. Help us to prevent more tragedies this summer by sharing this post.
On behalf of the animals - thank you ❤️
