Workers digging the foundations for the extention of a prison in Northern Isreal have discovered a mosaic floor in an early Christian church which dates back to around 230AD.
The mosaic mentions Jesus Christ as God. This is one of the earliest references to Christ as God outside the bible and shows how the early Christians were not hiding their belief at the time and were acknowledging Christ as God.
This is more evidence for Christ and disputes the claims by historians that the idea of Christ as God was a later elaboration the church had created rather than having any truth that Christ had declared himself as God and was seen as God by early Christians.
