More proof that Christianity is true.
Jacob Harrison:
This shows an extra biblical source that mentions the 10 plagues in Egypt.

Scientists also conclude that the plagues happened.

And here is evidence of the Exodus from Egypt.

Okay I haven't even read your links yet but how does that make Christianity true? Judaism, Islam, Mormonism and other Abrahamic religions also believe these events took place. I could just as easily quote this as proof of Samaritanism.

And it wouldn't be "proof" that any of those are true, either.

Because Jesus fulfilled the Bible prophecies about the messiah.
Tolpuddle Martyr:
This is where Christianity is on real shaky ground, on the one hand one of their selling points is that Jesus is an ordinary bloke, a carpenter, a street mystic and a man who rubbed shoulders with ordinary folks, not just the well to do. Then they go and claim that he's actually a scruffily dressed king. To claim messiahood Matthew and Luke posit contradictory genealogies which diverge from older Jewish texts and use that as the basis to claim his kingship and relation to the line of King David.
The people who believe this claim are Christians who still give a toss about genealogy (like someone we know.) It's notable that Jews who give a toss about genealogy don't believe a word of it. The most likely scenario is that the 'begat' lists in Matthew and Luke were tossed together post facto to justify the Christian claim that Jesus has the requisite ancestry to be a messiah.
