Jesus Was NOT 'Only Recognised As God' Years After The Events, As Claimed By Some Heretics.

Historian Jaroslav Pelikan indicates that the oldest Christian sermon,the oldest account of a Christian martyr, the oldest pagan report of The Church and the oldest liturgical prayer - 1 Corinthians 16:22 ALL refer to Jesus as 'Lord and God'.

This was not some bolt-on idea. It was the absolute reality of the early Church and the Gospel writers.
