Fox News had this posted on their website today. A letter written by Jesus to his "brother" http://www.foxnews.com/science/2017/12/04/ancient-forbidden-christian-text-jesus-secret-teachings-to-his-brother-found.html I'm sure heretics aplenty will be jumping on this. This is along the same lines as Jesus writing about his "wife" Stay tuned Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont see this as discrediting the bible since it is a known heretical book to begin with and not somethign that is brand new. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is not a new book, just an earlier copy of it. I guess I dont see how this will change anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is FoxNews trying to boost ratings, with misleading titles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
