Clerics urged to highlight Baptism Site Authenticity
By Rand Dalgamouni 2/7/2011 BAPTISM SITE – A senior official on Monday called on Christian leaders to help establish beyond doubt that the Kingdom hosts the holy site where Jesus Christ was baptised by John the Baptist. “We request that your beatitudes help us in highlighting the historical facts in the Bible about Jesus Christ’s Baptism Site,” Minister of Culture Jeryes Samawi asked Orthodox patriarchs at a conference yesterday. Father Nabil Haddad, president of the Jordan Interfaith Coexistence Research Centre, said all Christian religious leaders consider Jordan’s Baptism Site the actual place where Christ was baptised, which affirms its authenticity and refutes all Israeli allegations that claim otherwise.
