I thought I was done when the season ended. I wasn't ready to announce it, and I knew I needed some time to really decide, but I was pretty sure I played my last game. I was honest at that last press conference when I said I needed to look at myself and deicide if I still love
I believe in one God,
the Father Almighty,
Maker of heaven and earth,
of all things visible and invisible.
I believe in one Lord Jesus Christ,
the Only Begotten Son of God,
born of the Father before all ages.
God from God,
Light from Light,
true God from true God,
begotten, not made,
consubstantial with the Father;
through Him all things were made.
For us men and for our salvation
He came down from heaven,
and by the Holy Spirit
was incarnate of the Virgin Mary,
and became man.
For our sake He was crucified under Pontius Pilate,
He suffered death and was buried,
and rose again on the third day
in accordance with the Scriptures.
He ascended into heaven
and is seated at the right hand of the Father.
He will come again in glory
to judge the living and the dead,
and His kingdom will have no end.
I believe in the Holy Spirit,
the Lord, the Giver of life,
who proceeds from the Father and the Son,
who with the Father and the Son is adored and glorified,
who has spoken through the prophets.
I believe in one, holy, catholic, and apostolic Church.
I confess one Baptism
for the forgiveness of sins,
and I look forward to the resurrection of the dead
and the life of the world to come.
Amen. 🙏🏼
Historians (even the secular, non-believing scholars of antiquity) overwhelmingly agree that Jesus was a real historical figure who was baptized by John the Baptist and crucified under the orders of Pontius Pilate. It's not even a debate in serious academic circles.
Scientists and archaeologists continually uncover the actual, physical locations and artifacts that perfectly align with the historical backdrop of His life in first-century Judea.
Denying the mere existence of Jesus isn't an intellectual flex. It just shows you refuse to accept the overwhelming evidence.
God is real. Jesus Christ is God.
Now thinking Jesus never existed is just weird. Historians, Christians and scientists all agree Jesus Christ is real.
