STREAMS IN THE NEGEV

Fake news is not new; it goes back a long way. A big one is this:

‘Now while they were going, behold, some of the guard came into the city and reported to the chief priests all the things that had happened. When they had assembled with the elders and consulted together, they gave a large sum of money to the soldiers, saying, “Tell them, ‘His disciples came at night and stole Him away while we slept.’ And if this comes to the governor’s ears, we will appease him and make you secure.” So they took the money and did as they were instructed; and this saying is commonly reported among the Jews until this day.’ (Mt 28:11-15)

We are called to witnesses to the truth of the risen Lord and Messiah. (2Cor 10:3-6)
