The Real Jesus - Chapter 1: - Garner Ted Armstrong - 1977

Garner Ted Armstrong

Jesus was born sometime in the late summer or early autumn of 4 B.C. The first time I ever made this statement to anyone I was viewed with a combination of doubt, incredulity, hostility and outright pity. "How in the world could Jesus have been born before Christ?" I was asked. It so happens that the present system in the Western Christian-professing world of counting years either prior to or subsequent to the event of our Savior's birth was not established until the work of Dionysius the Little, many, many centuries this side of the event. - Information Supplied By: Herbert W Armstrong Library
