see how you have no understanding



Act_5:30  The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom ye slew and hanged on a tree.

Joh_20:25  The other disciples therefore said unto him, We have seen the Lord. But he said unto them, Except I shall see in his hands the print of the nails, and put my finger into the print of the nails, and thrust my hand into his side, I will not believe.

Thank you for that question. You are evidently
misunderstanding the verse because of its usage of
“tree.” When the King James Bible says Jesus was
hanged on a “tree,” the Greek word thus translated is
xulon (“wood”). Note those five occurrences:
Acts 5:30: “The God of our fathers raised up Jesus, whom
ye slew and hanged on a tree .”
Acts 10:39: “And we are witnesses of all things which he
did both in the land of the Jews, and in Jerusalem; whom
they slew and hanged on a tree :”
Acts 13:29: “And when they had fulfilled all that was
written of him, they took him down from the tree, and laid
him in a sepulchre.”
Galatians 3:13: “Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of
the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed
is every one that hangeth on a tree :”
1 Peter 2:24: “Who his own self bare our sins in his own
body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live
unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.”
It would be profitable to see how our 1611 translators
handled that Greek word xulon elsewhere in the New
Testament.
When the multitude came with Judas to arrest Jesus,
the Bible says they came with “swords and staves”
(Matthew 26:47). “Staves,” wooden clubs, in Greek, is
xulon (also translated “tree” ). This word appears again
in verse 55.
In discussing the quality of the Christian’s doctrine
evaluated at the Judgment Seat of Christ, Paul talked
about “gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble” (1
Corinthians 3:12). “Wood” is xulon.
Jesus Christ, dictating to the Apostle John what he is
to write to the Jewish assembly at Ephesus, said: “He
that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the
churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the
tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of God”
(Revelation 2:7). In the New Heaven and New Earth, we
read about the “tree of life” bearing twelve manner of
fruits, yielding fruit every month, and the “leaves of the
tree” were “for the healing of the nations” (Revelation
22:2). Xulon is translated three times in these three
verses, “tree.” The “tree of life” is again mentioned in
Revelation 22:14.
While describing the wealth of the Antichrist’s
government, and its economic collapse, we read of
gold, silver, precious stones, pearls, fine linen, purple,
silk, scarlet, thyine wood, ivory vessels, precious wood
vessels, brass, iron, and marble (Revelation 18:22).
Xulon is twice translated “wood” in this verse.
CONCLUSION
When the Bible says Jesus was hung on a “tree,” tree is
being used in the general sense of “a structure made of
wood” (The Oxford American Dictionary says this is the
archaic and poetic/literary definition of “tree”). It was not
a tree in the sense of Jesus being nailed to something
growing in the ground with branches and leaves. It was
some type of wooden structure, a tree that had already
been cut down, stripped of leaves and branches, and
trimmed into beams that could be carried by men
(Matthew 27:32; Mark 15:21; Luke 23:26; John 19:17).

the people of Jesus time sometimes use the word tree for cross interchangeably. this is because cross looks just like a tree with stem and brach when viewed from a distance

A cross can be made from a tree. Does the make the cross a tree? shocked
Just like "Suya" can be derived from a cow, if I tell you I bought "Suya" will you tell your friends I bought a cow? grin grin









Funny grin though

But you are wrong. tree means wood and wood means tree.
Remember the original text was not in english.

Some languages use one word for more than one objects.

Example.
Yoruba uses igi for tree and igi for wood.
Ge igi yen si meji in yoruba could mean cut that tree into two or cut that wood into two.


So I bought suya and I bought Cow doesnt work with the issue of the cross.

Christ was killed and hung on a tree..There was no other way for him to have died but what was written of his death,The sanhedrin also confirmed that it had to be by the rabbincal hebrew law. I WILL PROVE THAT!!

john chapter 20 >When the chiefe Priests therefore and officers saw him, they cried out, saying, Crucifie him, crucifie him. Pilate saith vnto them, Take ye him, and crucifie him: for I find no fault in him. 7 The Jewes answered him, We haue a law, and by our law he ought to die, because he made himselfe the Son of God. Then deliVered he him therfore vnto them to be crucified: and they took Iesus, and led him away

THERE YOU SEE PILATE DELIVERD THE MESSIAH INTO THE HANDS OF THE SANHEDRIN TO DO AS THE LAW REQUIRED. NEXT HERE IS WHAT THE MESSIAH HIMSELF SAID WHILE THEY WERE TAKINFG HIM AWAY TO BE KILLED

LUKE CHAPTER 22: 29For beholde, the dayes are coming, in the which they shall say, Blessed are the barren, and the wombs that neuer bare, and the paps which neuer gave sucke. 30Then shall they begin to say to the mountaines, Fall on vs, and to the hills, Cover us. 31 For if they do these things in a green tree, what shalbe done in the drie? And one of the malefactors, which were hanged

CHRIST CONFIRMS HE WAS GOING TO BE KILLED ON A GREEN TREE!!! WHAAAAAT? YES CHRIST CONFIRMS HE WAS GOING TO BE KILLED ON A GREEN TREE AND NOT A DRY ONE....HE SAID FOR **IF THEY DO THESE THINGS IN A GREEN TREE!!!*** IN A GREEN WHAT? IN A GREEN TREE!
[img][/img][img][/img]

i WILL FURTHER CONFIRM WHAT THE HEBREW LAW STATES AND CHRIST AGAIN CONFIRMS THAT ALL MUST BE FULLFILLED OF HIMSELF AS WRITTEN IN THE LAW THE PSALMS AND THE PROPHETS.

DEUTERONOMY CHAPTER 21: ¶ And if a man have committed a sin worthy of death, and he be to be put to death, and thou hang him on a tree: 23 His body shall not remain all night upon the tree, but thou shalt in any wise bury him that day: for he that is hanged, is accursed of God: that thy land be not defiled, which the Lord thy God giveth thee for an inheritance.

The cross theory is the imaginations of Caucasians who been adding and taking away from scripture and giving false doctrines. The cross is a pagan symbol of the god Tammuz and the churches today are Antichrist as they wear his symbol.They used Christ death and resurrection to entice the people to honor Tammuz. That thing you people worship in the churches is Satan himself..

MY NEXT POINT:THE TWO MEN HUNG WITH CHRIST THEY WERE HEBREW REBELS AND THERE ALSO HAD TO BE HUNG ACCORDING TO THE HEBREW LAWS AND NOT ROMAN LAWS.. AGAIN PILATE DELIVERED CHRIST INTO THE HANDS OF THE SANHEDRIN AUTHORITY...THE SANHEDRIN ALWAYS HAD THEIR OWN POLICE FORCE LIKE THE NIGHT THEY WENT TO CAPTURE CHRIST. THE DAY OF THE EXECUTION OF MESSIAH THE ROMANS WERE ONSITE TO CONTROL THE CROWDS AT THE HANGING AND KILLING.

YOU CHRISTIANS WHO LOVE TO ARGUE WHILE YOU KNOW NOTHING AND JUST REPEAT LIKE A PARROT THE ERRORS OF OLD DEAD PAGAN GENTILES AND DEMONS, ITS TIME TO SHUT UP AND STUDY THE WORD

A meticulous friend would ask you what animal meat. Some people don’t eat cow Suya; they would specifically tell you to buy goat meat Suya.

The Bible is not the only source of history. You should have gone to check many sources detail on the modus operan di the Roman army rather than picking three verses from one verse and giving a conclusion which falls short of sources that give more specific details on the mode of execution by the Roman army.

Jesus Christ was crucified which signifies the trinity.
Why tree was used was because wood is gotten from trees and the cross was made of wood

Horus:



Christians are indeed idols whorshipers.
Except Jehovah's witnesses.
We have no symbols of the Cross in the kingdom Halls neither do we have any in our residence.

How can someone create a symbol he claims to be the murder weapon of his beloved friend and wear it like a bracelet or even say prayers with it?

Common sense is not common at all !
