As far as the world knows 2017 years after Jesus birth, so as much as they try to eradicate his name it still marks time in this evil age!

It might be a bit more than 2017 years. Most historians who recognize that Jesus was indeed a historical person, say that He was born in 4 B.C.

Speaking of New Years, it's interesting that according to the research of Dr. Ernest Martin, now being popularized by attorney Rick Larson, there is evidence from astronomy that Jesus was born near sunset at literally the very beginning of Jewish New Year and the Festival of Trumpets in 3 B.C. Sounds like something straight out of a tabloid, I know. In my opinion though, the evidence is actually quite compelling. For any partial preterists familiar with Dr. David Chilton, he actually explained some of this theory in his book "Days of Vengeance". Regardless of your leanings, it's a fascinating possibility to consider. For anyone interested, I'd encourage you to check it out now that the holiday madness is coming to a close. I found it quite edifying.
