If you suffer with motion-sickness, do not take this test! [photos]

Look at the following pictures.  Are they moving or are they still?

The pictures are used to test the level of stress a person can handle.   Just move your eyes around the images.  The slower the pictures move, the better your ability of handling stress.  Allegedly, criminals who were tested, see them spinning around madly.  However, the elderly and children see them standing still.  None of these images are animated.

Significance of the folded burial cloth in Jesus’ tomb

Image via Wikipedia

Remember when Peter rushed into Jesus’ tomb and saw the burial linen cloth neatly folded (John 20)?  Have you ever wondered why?

The answer lies in the Hebrew tradition of that day.  The folded napkin had to do with the master and servant; every Jewish boy knew this tradition.  When the servant set the master’s dinner table, it was exactly how the master wanted it.  The table was furnished perfectly and then the servant would wait out of sight until the master finished eating.  The servant wouldn’t dare touch the table until the master was finished.

If the master was done eating, he would rise from the table, wipe his fingers, mouth, beard, and then he would wad the napkin and toss it on to the table.  The servant then knew it was time to clear the table.  In those days, the wadded napkin meant, “I’m done.”  But if the master rose from the table and folded his napkin next to the plate, the servant wouldn’t dare touch the table because…the folded napkin meant, “I’m coming back!”

Jesus IS COMING BACK!!!

UPDATE: The source is probably from here.  But where they got their source is unknown.  Another website that disclaims this theory.  I would like some historians, scholars, theologians, etc to post their thoughts about the cloth surrounding the above scripture.  True or not, I enjoy different perspectives (as my magazine indicates!).  Tradition or not, it is written in Matthew 24:30 that He is returning.
