Since the Rapture is being discussed all across the internet today, let me share this great Religion For Breakfast video on the origins of the theology and how it's spread, mostly in the late 1800s / early 1900s into the mainstream largely came from a particular translation / study Bible. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mvsjMuHkGBc

入這行十多年來，翻譯的書一本比一本厚，現在已經來到四公分的厚度（一般書大概一公分左右），增加的除了厚度還有難度。
神學啊，treat me nice

NATIVITY OF JESUS CHRIST
I am doing some research on the nativity of Jesus of Nazareth. I am looking into the many sectarian traditions and scholarly opinions on this subject.
I would like to get hermeneutic opinions and off the cuff opinions on some groundwork questions.
1. What actual year do you think Jesus was born?
2. How old was Mary when she was married?
3. How did Mary conceive?
4. What is the significance of his birthplace?
5. What is the significance of the Magi who sought him after his birth?
6. Why was it necessary or significant for an angel to tell Mary she was going to conceive?
Where possible, links or citations would be useful for particular opinions or traditional explanations.

"The Los Books Of The Bible and The Forgotten Books of Eden"
As I read somewhere, said that those were the books the Fathers of The Church "refused" to include them in the Bible. Simply hilarious. There are lot of reasons why, and all obvious.
However, I'm interested to get those books and study them someday.
