This is a very good word and encouragement Cheryl. As usual. I’ll
comment later.
At the moment, I’m trying to find an answer to the following question.
Sorry this isn’t on topic.
There is a circulating claim of historical evidence of Iounias the bishop
outside of Jerusalem during the apostolic era. Does anyone know of this?
Is this information on a website, and in any books documenting it? I’d
like to see what info there is on it.
While so many scholars have claimed no evidence of any male having the
name of Iounias… not one bit of evidence … where and when did this
info turn up? Is this person real. And if so, what evidence is there that
it is a man. Just because he/she was a Bishop that mean it was a man, is
circular reasoning (the same circular reasoning regarding Iounia) . Fact
is that there have been female elders in history.
Thus we have no indication anywhere that Iounia(s) is a male name. Yet, we
have a Iounia(s) Bishop that supposedly is male because of the position of
Bishop.
If anyone has any documented info they can point me to I would be most
grateful
