@orthomaxxer Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, through the prayers of Your Most Pure Mother, of our God-bearing holy fathers, and of all the saints, have mercy on the father who has suffered an accident and is in pain in the hospital!
@Urhobo_Mudiaga Saint Polycarp (c. 69–155 AD) was a second-century Christian bishop of Smyrna and one of the chief Apostolic Fathers—a group of early church leaders who were direct disciples of Jesus's apostles, connecting the generation of eyewitnesses to the expanding early Church.
@Urhobo_Mudiaga The Bible sent to Africa was finalized in 367 AD by Saint Athanasius of Alexandria. The evidence I showed you dates back to 150 AD and comes from Saint Polycarp.
The Bible was also written by saints—who were human beings, after all—under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit.
@Urhobo_Mudiaga The first formally recorded complete list of the exact 27 books of the modern New Testament was written in 367 AD by Saint Athanasius of Alexandria, a pivotal Eastern Church Father, in his 39th Festal Letter.
@Urhobo_Mudiaga The books of the New Testament were written in the Greek language during the second half of the 1st century AD, roughly between 50 AD and 100 AD. None of the books were written during the lifetime of Jesus, who was crucified around 30–33 AD.
