The significance of Jesus, and His accomplishing of our redemption, is greater than any of mankind's greatest accomplishments.

(Israel) — [Breakingisraelnews.com] More than two decades after his first moon walk, Neil Armstrong visited Israel where he didn't chart a new path, but followed an old one. Because of his faith, this was something that he acknowledged as being even more significant than his 1969 moon walk. (Image: Wikimedia Commons)

When Armstrong visited Israel in 1994 he was brought to a place in the Old City of Jerusalem and asked Meir Ben-Dov, his host and noted archeologist, if Jesus Himselfactually would have walked there.

"I told him, 'Look, Jesus was a Jew,'" recalled Ben-Dov. "These are the steps that lead to the Temple, so He must have walked here many times."

Armstrong asked if these were the original steps, and Ben-Dov said that they were.

"So, Jesus stepped right here?" asked Armstrong. "That's right," answered Ben-Dov.

"I have to tell you," Armstrong said to the Israeli archaeologist, "I am more excited stepping on these stones than I was stepping on the moon"... Subscribe for free to Breaking Christian News here
