Scala Santa to open for limited time with the original marble stairs Jesus walked 

Mark 13:1 As Jesus was leaving the temple, one of his disciples said to him, “Look, Teacher! What massive stones! What magnificent buildings!”2 “Do you see all these great buildings?” replied Jesus. “Not one stone here will be left on another; every one will be thrown down.” Catholic church claim to be possessing the Scala Sancta, the Holy Stairs are the steps leading up to the praetorium of Pontius Pilate in Jerusalem on which Jesus Christ stepped on his way to trial during his Passion. Medieval legends claim that Saint Helena, mother of Emperor Constantine the Great, brought the Holy Stairs from Jerusalem to Rome circa AD 326. Jesus disputes those claims by predicting the Siege and destruction of Jerusalem in the year 70 AD in the First Jewish-Roman War, in which the Roman army captured the city of Jerusalem and destroyed both the city and its Temple. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siege_of_Jerusalem_(70_CE) Jesus was very clear in Luke 21:6 “These things which you see-the days will come in which not one stone shall be left upon another that shall not be thrown down.” It is definate Saint Helena, mother of Emperor Constantine the Great, claims about the Holy Stairs relic is a made up hoax contradicting both Scripture and history. Do not be decieved.

@@reevesmirondo It's not a hoax, and you don't have to go there if you don't want. Leave people alone.

@@fabrizio483 how did Helena manage to bring the stairs back to Rome while Jerusalem was totally destroyed just like Jesus predicted in the Scriptures? Please explain

@@reevesmirondo I don't know, since I haven't studied about this, but if the Church says the stairs are authentic, who am I to disagree? If you're curious, I'm sure you can research this in depth.

@@fabrizio483 Jesus said Jerusalem will be totally destroyed. No stone will be on top of the other. Very clearly stated in the Scripture. History attest to the words of Jesus. Now we have the church saying otherwise. Should we put our trust on Jesus or the church?

No he lived and died in Palestine. About 300 years later the mother of the western Roman emperor travelled to Jerusalem to collect what she believed were relics to be brought back to Rome, items like the True Cross.

Where in the Bible does Jesus even mention...the Bible??? He DOES mention His Church!!!!

@@mmmail1969 this is Jesus' own words in these verses. John 10:35 "And you know that the Scriptures cannot be altered...." Luke 24:25 "Then Jesus said to them, “You foolish people! You find it so hard to believe all that the prophets wrote in the Scriptures." Scriptures = Old Testament = Bible

@@starpowerfitness9651 STILL waiting for Jesus's reference to the Bible???

They were taken to Rome by Saint Helena.

@@fabrizio483 how could she take them to Rome while history testifies to Jesus prophesy about Jerusalem total destruction?

@@reevesmirondo what about the crown of thorns...the holy foreskin...the shroud of Turin...the spear used to pierce Jesus the cloth mary wiped Jesus face with the holy grail and the burial place the tomb and place of birth are they Àll false

@@bettyboossister3918 A critique of the adoration of the Crown of thorns was set forth in 1543 by Jean Calvin in the work «Treatise on Relics». He described numerous parts of the Crown of thorns known to him, located in different cities. Based on a large number of parts of the Crown of thorns, Calvin wrote: In regard to the Crown of thorns, it would seem that its twigs had been planted that they might grow again. Otherwise I know not how it could have attained to such a size. First, a third part of it is at Paris, in the Holy Chapel, and then at Rome there are three thorns in Santa Croce, and some portion also in St. Eustathius. At Sienna, I know not how many thorns, at Vineennes one, at Bourges five, at Besan~on, in the church of St. John, three, and as many at Koningsberg. At the church of St. Salvator, in Spain, are several, but how many I know not; at Compostella, in the church of St. Jago, two; in Vivarais, three; also at Toulouse, Mascon, Charrox in Poicton, St. Clair, Sanflor, San Maximinin Provence, in the monastery of Selles, and also in the church of St. Martin at Noyon, each place having a single thorn. But if diligent search were made, the number might be increased fourfold. It is most evident that there must here be falsehood and imposition. How will the truth be ascertained? It ought, moreover, to be observed, that in the ancient Church it was never known what had become of that crown. Hence it is easy to conclude, that the first twig of that now shown grew many years after our Saviour's death.

I feel the exact same way. The blindfolds are thick on these people. Which is why Jesus came back a second time in 1948 and removed these blindfolds off our eyes so we can know the truth

God LIKES Holy Idols......

How is climbing stairs and meditating completely on Jesus in His Passion considered idolatry?

Why would you not want to ascend the very stairs that Jesus walked on his way to Pilate?

@rach d I think it does, you do know there is no evidence that the biblical jesus ever existed.

@rach d That doesn't make the biblical jesus true. There is no evidence for the biblical jesus. Where is your evidence.

@rach d That's all you've got, I'm a closed minded idiot, Ha Ha. You are the one who's closed minded I was born into a Catholic family in Ireland and was a christian until I was forty. Then I started examining the hisrory of the biblical jesus and found none, why because there is none.

​@Behyelzebub there's non biblical references to him too in the classical world. Josephus, Suetonius, Tacitus, Pliny the Younger.....

@@lw3646 The person I originally replied to, seems have deleted their posts. I'm not a Biblical scholar, but I've read the Bible and the evidence you refer to. I've no doubt that a person called Jesus existed, but none of these people describes the Jesus as described in the Bible. There is no mention of thirty seven specific miracles which include raising the dead, walking on water, curing the deaf and the blind, walking on water turning water into wine and much more. And the night he died the dead arose out of their graves and walked amongst the living. Surely these things would have been worth a mention.
