thats a negative image madam, i bet you have seen a negative image before, you would look 192 on one and your Master won't be an exception

I think this doesn't really matter. This is what breeds idolatry, in the long run.

Even most learned Christians know that the shroud of turin has been shown not to be the burial cloth of Christ and this one is coming to propagate confusion on the internet

Oh, I see.

Do you agree that the Shroud of Turin is His actual burial cloth?

Brother, those things don't mean anything to me. They won't give anyone salvation, neither can they heal or restore life to anyone.

Jesus was born, He died, resurrected, ascended to heaven, He'll come again. Anything outside of these means less to me.

It will be interesting especially if that Shroud happens to be the real deal.

Lollz, a fictitious character having a physical cloth? That must be the cloth of the guy who acted fictitious Jesus in a movie

You must have been watching a lot of movies to know what is real and what is fictitious.

Hahahahahaha. why does it matter?

analice107:

You never know who might just get saved by it.

OLAADEGBU:

Got saved by it? Does it have redemptive power?

analice107:


Got saved by it? Does it have redemptive power?

Not exactly saved by it but may motivate them into seeking to be saved.

Op,isn't these a distraction from the subject point?

OLAADEGBU:

Not exactly saved by it but may motivate them into seeking to be saved.

Oh, okay.

1) The 1988 carbon-dating test was flawed

Many researchers will dispute the claim, however, a growing consensus of researchers are accepting the notion that the 1988 carbon-dating test was flawed (Stephen Adams, Telegraph, 2009).

It is well documented that the Shroud was damaged by a fire in the 1200s and was extinguished and repaired by a group of nuns at the cathedral where the Shroud was held.

A person can still see the marks on the Shroud where it was damaged. It is now widely accepted that the fibers tested in 1988 came from the nuns' repair work. Recent studies confirmed that this was the case as dye was found on the fibers that were tested, indicating that the fibers did not originate with the original cloth (Adams, Telegraph, 2009).

In 2013, a new set of tests were conducted on the Shroud that placed the cloth to the time ranging from 300 B.C. to 400 A.D., well within the time of Jesus of Nazareth (Stanglin, USA Today, 2013). Thus, the 1988 testing is no longer the knockout punch that it was once held to be.

2) The blood on the Shroud is authentic

Blood on the Shroud. The blood is separate from the image on the Shroud.
Skeptics have long thought that the image and blood on the Shroud were painted on the cloth. However, it has been confirmed that the blood and image have separate origins. When examining the cloth, researches have noted that the blood appeared before the image. The Turin Shroud researchers have adopted the slogan "blood first, then image" to describe the Shroud. The blood has been confirmed as authentic hemoglobin and identified as Type AB.

3) The image on the Shroud is not a painting

As archeologist Ted Wright noted recently on The Bellator Christi Podcast, when researching the Shroud, we can rule out several things that the Shroud is not. One of those things that has been negated is the idea that the Shroud is a painting. The image on the Shroud is only a few fibers deep.

Also, the image is a photographic negative and is three-dimensional. Whatever the image is, it certainly did not come from a painter's brush.

4. The pollen on the Shroud is found exclusively in the Jerusalem area

Pollen has been found throughout the Turin Shroud. Dr. Max Frei noticed that around the head and the abdomen, the imprints of flowers are visible although they are quite difficult to observe.

The pollen and the imprints match flowers found in the vicinity of Jerusalem including the pistacia lentiscua, the chrysanthemum coronarium, and the gundelia tourneforii (Whanger and Whanger, Duke.edu, 2015). The Council for Study of the Turin Shroud from Duke University notes the following:

"While there are images of hundreds of flowers on the Shroud, many are vague or incomplete. We feel we have identified, tentatively but with reasonable certainty, twenty-eight plants whose images are sufficiently clear and complete to make a good comparison with drawings in the botany literature.

Of these twenty-eight plants, twenty-three are flowers, three are small bushes, and two are thorns. All twenty-eight grow in Israel. Twenty grow in Jerusalem itself, and the other eight grow potentially within the close vicinity of Jerusalem, either in the Judean Desert or in the Dead Sea area or in both. All twenty-eight would have been available in Jerusalem markets in a fresh state" (Whanger and Whanger, Duke.edu, 2015).

These findings suggest that the Turin Shroud must have originated in, or at least have been in the vicinity of, Jerusalem. That the pollen dates to the first-century also provides an indication that the Shroud was first found in first-century Israel.

5. The wounds of the man on the Shroud match the details of Jesus's crucifixion

Any examination of religious art depicting the crucifixion of Jesus shows the nail prints in the palms of the hand. However, the Turin Shroud shows the nail marks at the lower part of the hand into the wrist. Experiments conducted on cadavers note that the Turin Shroud accurately depicts how crucifixions would have transpired.

In addition, the whip markings on the man's back match the ends of the flagrums used by the first-century Romans for scourgings.
