Earliest Reference Describes Christ as 'Magician' Posted: 2 months ago by AutumnLotus
A bowl, dating to between the late 2nd century B.C. and the early 1st century A.D., is engraved with what may be the world's first known reference to Christ. The engraving reads, "DIA CHRSTOU O GOISTAIS," which has been interpreted to mean either, "by Christ the magician" or, "the magician by Christ."

Fascinating article. They're theorizing that a magician had heard of the miracles of Christ and tried invoking his name for his own magic.
« beckinacea : I already saw all of his tricks on Fox's Secrets of Magic Revealed. Water to wine indeed... Did they try killing a magician, leaving him for three days, and then seeing if he came back to life?
