This Is So Cool!

This is wild! Vikings traveled to Northern Canada, and inscribed the Lord’s Prayer on bedrock only hundreds of years after Christ’s ascension. The Vikings used, Elder Futhark Runes between 150A.D. and 750A.D. This copy of the Lord’s Prayer was unearthed in Northern Canada. A tree had grown up near it. It’s roots covered it, and it slowly was completely covered by soil. When the tree blew over in a storm the stone was discovered. We can know that this copy of the Lord’s Prayer was written on this stone approximately 300-500 years after Christ’s earthly ministry, and ascension. This means that Viking converts to Christ traveled to North America earlier than previously thought. Imagine where they might have heard the Bible read. Keep in mind, they would have heard it about the same time that Jerome translated it into Latin. The translation from Elder Futhark into modern English has the same words as the Latin Vulgate. It was translated between 382A.D.-405A.D. The prayer on the stone was much older than the King James era, and even the earlier Geneva Bible. We know this because it lacks the added doxology of the later translations. This is soooo cool!
