TRUTH

Error, indeed, is never set forth in its naked deformity, lest, being thus exposed, it should at once be detected. But it is craftily decked out in an attractive dress, so as, by its outward form, to make it appear to the inexperienced (ridiculous as the expression may seem) more true than the truth itself. - Irenaeus

Jerusalem and Israel

When President Trump made the public announcement that Jerusalem was Israel's capital in December of 2017 the Muslims world wide went crazy in protest.  While the foundation of ancient Jewish temple has been in Jerusalem for three thousand years the Muslims have tried to make claim to it by building a mosque there six hundred years after Christ. Trump is the first President that has went so far as to announce this reality to the world.  This scriptural passage from Zechariah comes from about the fifth century BC.  Jerusalem is found no where in the Quran.
The Merneptah Stele found in Egypt by Flinders Petrie is the earliest record of Israel in Egypt.  This black granite stone dates 1208 B.C.
