(Worthy News) – An Italian scientist and his team claim their research shows the Shroud of Turin, a fabric purported to have been Christ’s burial garment, may have originated during the time of Jesus’s death and resurrection.

The researchers’ findings were published in the international journal Heritage in April. [ Source: Christian Today (Read More…) ]
