WASHINGTON - TelAve -- The Journal of Pre-Nicene Christian Studies today announced the publication of a groundbreaking paper that proposes a radical new model for understanding the formation of orthodox Christianity. The paper, titled "The Theophanic Replacement Protocol: A Forensic Reconstruction of Divine Identity Theft, Textual Erasure, and the Formation of Nicene Christianity," integrates historical, textual, and astronomical evidence to argue that the traditional narrative was the result of a centuries-long, systematic overwriting of an earlier form of the faith.

Authored by researcher A.W. Mitchell, the study moves beyond traditional theological debate to apply a forensic, historical-critical methodology. The central thesis posits that the identity of the God of the Torah was systematically grafted onto the biography of a different, "previously unknown" God revealed by Jesus, a process the paper terms "divine identity theft."

Key claims of the research include:

• The recovery of a suppressed founding event: a "Eclipse Theophany" in 29 AD, recorded in the earliest gospel but later excised.
• The delineation of a multi-phase "Protocol" (c. 50-400 AD), involving catechetical shifts, textual interpolation, social coercion, physical destruction of rival scriptures, and final dogmatic codification at the Council of Nicaea.
• A resolution to a longstanding historical puzzle, re-assigning the eclipse and earthquake recorded by the 2nd-century historian Phlegon of Tralles to this earlier foundational event.

"The Theophanic Replacement Protocol is not a theological position but a historical model," said A.W. Mitchell. "It attempts to explain the profound anomalies within the canonical record—such as the stark character difference between the Gods of the Old and New Testaments and the mysterious 'silent years' of Jesus—not as mysteries of faith, but as forensic artifacts, or scar tissue, of a profound historical process."

The paper is published in Volume 2, Issue 1 of the Journal of Pre-Nicene Christian Studies (ISSN: 3068-8469) and is openly accessible via the Zenodo research repository.
