Don Verdean
NARRATOR:
For the last 12 years,Biblical archaeologist Don Verdean
has received worldwide acclaim
for his incredible
discoveries in the Holy Land.
- ( CHEERING )
- Don's discoveries have touched the lives
of countless millions,
the miraculous narratives
found in the Bible.
On his latest trip
to the Middle East,
Don contacted Adabi
Hassan from Saudi Arabia,
who agreed to accompany
Don to a location
rumored to be the burial site
of Samson from the Bible.
But, sadly, upon their arrival,
all that remained of the
site was a large, empty hole
caused by looting
the previous month.
Don was devastated.
Adabi then informed him
in the valley of Sorek.
After months of intense excavation,
Don made the discovery
of a lifetime...
iron shears dating
back over 3,000 years.
Could these be the very blades
used to strip Samson
of his strength?
Don decided to share his findings
with Dr. Stelios Patrokolis,
world-renowned for his excavations
of the Byzantine Empire.
After reviewing the forensic data,
Dr. Patrokolis made the
following statement:
I'll bet.
NARRATOR:
After this briefinterview with Dr. Patrokolis,
Don's discovery was made public.
He now travels the world
sharing his message of faith
to a whole new
generation of believers.
The tireless efforts of Don Verdean
will continue to bless
millions everywhere.
Next question.
Yeah?
Mr. Verdean, there's a... a, uh, letter.
Well, it's an online document
that's received wide distribution
throughout the ministry, as
I'm... I'm sure you've seen it.
It's, for the record, from the, uh,
Israeli Antiquities Authority.
I'd like to share that,
if that's all right.
DON:
Yes, go right ahead."Thank you for your inquiry dated July 13th"
asking about Don Verdean.
and have no information
about them whatsoever.
If he says he has
excavated in Israel,
he has committed an illegal act.
We have never heard of this man,
nor have we had any
dealings with him.
Legitimate archaeology finds
are published in professional journals
or by universities and
other scientific institutes.
Sincerely yours, Nahum Ishalom,
"spokesman for Israeli Antiquities."
DON:
Thank you. Thankyou for reading that.
Now, uh,
Satan takes advantage
of situations like this.
There's two things happening here.
One, the Israelis don't
want this discovery confirmed
until, you know,
it can be done in a manner
that won't cause a bloodbath.
Two, all of my excavating was done
in a very public place,
and had I done it without a permit,
I can assure you I would've
been thrown in prison.
Unfortunately, this is how
If you ask any of them
if they know Don Verdean,
they'll say they don't.
Carol, did you, uh...
bring that book with you?
The one with my ugly face on the front?
Could you hand it to me?
Thank you.
Now...
if you'll all be so kind
as to look right here.
In this picture, you will
This gentleman standing next to me
is none other than Nahum Ishalom,
spokesman for the Israeli Antiquities
and author of the letter
that was just read to you.
When asked if he knew
Don Verdean, he said "no."
But if you look at this picture,
you'll see that the
truth is something else.
- ( APPLAUSE )
Thank you so much.
- You may ask me how I know
- DON:
You bet. Let's take a picture.- My Lord is real...
- Thank you.
