  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Luke 3:

23 Jesus was about thirty years old when he began his work.
John mentioned three or four Passovers during Jesus' ministry.

John 2:

13 The Passover of the Jews was near, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem."
John 5 was a possible Passover:

:1 After this there was a festival of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem.
John 6:

4 Now the Passover, the festival of the Jews, was near.
John 11:

55 Now the Passover of the Jews was near, and many went up from the country to Jerusalem before the Passover to purify themselves.
Jesus' public ministry was >2 but <4 years. Taking the middle value, he probably died at 33.

That is what the Eastern Orthodox believe. They hold 33 candles at the Holy fire ceremony in Jerusalem.

In His mid-30s, so probably between 33 and 37, assuming a birth year of 4 BC and a death year of 30 AD or 33 AD.
