These Youths Slept; Only To Wake Up 180 Years Later. by Muyogoa: 1:17pm On Nov 09, 2014 |
The seven sleepers of EPHESUS. This is a story that should actually show to the whole world how great and powerful our God is. Please atheist, change your thought. During the reign of the then roman emperor Decius, there was a great persecution against the christians. These seven men was ordered by Decius to be throwned and abandoned in a cave (250AD), since they refused to change from being christians after giving them enough chance to do so. Instead,they continued in their faith and in giving food to the poor..They were kept in the cave and the cave was sealed. (although,some other story said, these seven men deliberately hid themselves in the cave to avoid been persecuted by Decius then). In the year 251 (during the first century) Decius died and many years later, another emperor Theodosius 11 began his reign(which was between year 408-450) This particular emperor was not really cruel on christian unlike Decius. During this time,the (new) owner of the cave decided to go open the cave. He had the intention of turning it to a cattle pen . But he was surprised to see sleepers there. The seven sleepers then woke up when the cave was open thinking they had slept for one day. They ordered one of them to go to ephesus to get food for them to eat. He was warned to be careful of the pagan to avoid them been arrested and persecuted. When this fellow got out, he was surprised to see many buildings with crosses on it. And many other things, which was never permitted during the reign of Decius. People and sellers was also surprised to see someone coming to buy goods with coins that was used during the reign of Decius about 180years ago. The seven men was later interviewed by a bishop and they narrated what God actually did. Their miracle story. ISN'T GOD GREAT?. With God all things are possible.

OP giving glory to the bible God for what he clearly does not understand. Time travel has always exist,it is only alien to modern humans. There are stories of people going back in time to re-live certain lives or make correction,find certain information etc. According to the laws of Physics,Time travel is a possibility. Please do not embarrass yourself by attributing it to an unknown deity. 1 Like |
