In an astonishing revelation, the archaeologists have unearthed the most ancient and long ago buried faith and spirituality. We are talking about the ‘World’s First Church’ that has been unearthed recently by the archaeologists, as reported by The Jordan Times. The excavated church dates back to as far as 33 AD i.e. nearly 2,000 years back. It was located underneath the Saint Georgeous Church, near the Jordanian border with Syria, which in itself is believed to date back to 230 AD.
Abdul Qader al-Husan, Head of Jordan’s Rihab Centre for Archaeological Studies, confirmed that they have evidence to believe that the church was sheltered by early Christians, the seventy disciples of Jesus Christ, who fled persecution in Jerusalem, founded and took shelter in churches in northern Jordan. This discovery has been labeled as an ‘important milestone for Christians all around the world’. We may here say that in this age of sin and adultery, such spiritual disclosures are a miracle in itself. Apart from this great and holy historical achievement, we also expect a long season of spiritual plunge in Syria.

That’s really an interesting story. Wester Asia was the melting pot of several religions and cultures. Sad to see it involved in such xenophobic conflicts now.
