Apostle Paul.

Paul

jesusjnr2020:
My second favourite apostle in the Bible is Stephen.

The reason is when he was being attacked by his enemies, he didn't pray for them to die as many Christians do today, instead he would follow the example of Jesus and instead pray for them to be forgiven.

So it wasn't surprising that Jesus who is said to be sitting on the right hand of God, was seen standing at the right hand of God on that particular moment.

Moreover his prayer may have been pivotal to Paul's conversion, because it may been an entirely different story had he not prayed for the forgiveness of his enemies, but for them all to die by fire as many Christians do today, so the apostle Paul who most of them claim to love may never have lived to have that encounter with Christ that would change his course for good and lead him to be used by God as he was.

It is the extent to which he reminds of Christ and followed His teachings that made him to be my second favourite apostle in the Bible.

God bless.

Spot on

You think everything can be explained logically. Fool

Somethings can be explained illogically for dummies like you.

None

It's childish and unchristian like comparing prophets/apostles. Infact no one is greater than the other in the kingdom

Apostle Paul is prominent and well know.

This thread isn't in line with Christianity. The Christian isn't expected to have favourite apostles...



1 Corinthians 3:3-7
[3]For ye are yet carnal: for whereas there is among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as men?
[4]For while one saith, I am of Paul; and another, I am of Apollos; are ye not carnal?
[5]Who then is Paul, and who is Apollos, but ministers by whom ye believed, even as the Lord gave to every man?
[6]I have planted, Apollos watered; but God gave the increase.
[7]So then neither is he that planteth any thing, neither he that watereth; but God that giveth the increase.

You are very correct, it's either the person who created this post is not a believer or the person has not been reading the Bible correctly

Apostle Paul

When Jesus was going, he didn't hand over the ministry to his blood brother among his disciples, but here we are in naija, wen they are going, wife, brother, son takes over.

Maybe because he is popular, I have a fondness for the great Apostle Paul. I love him because of how nuanced his teachings were which is the reason many Christians still can't comprehend them even up to this moment.

It takes proper study to understand his teachings.

Sweet.

I loved James, brother of our Lord God in Christ.
Dudes scriptures was down to earth, didn't mince words to appeal to a diverse audience. Said it as it was, in a series of flowery Do's and Don't's.

Apostle Peter

I relate with him
Not worthy but chosen
Not ready or equipped
But zealous to be used

Full of mistakes but ready to accept my mistakes and push on

It was not credited if Paul the apostle had any wife but I must commend his determination and resilience

It is human nature to have favorites. Having a favorite will only become an issue if it causes division, jealousy and unhealthy competition.
Joseph was the favorite son of Jacob. It led to division and jealousy in his family. Apostle John was Jesus favorite disciple but it did not cause any division among His disciples.

Apostle Paul n philip

Apostle Paul, he had much revelatory knowledge and he was persecuted the most, the thorn of his flesh.

Did you know that Jesus never taught nor showed that John was Jesus' favourite disciple. It's never in God's nature to be partial.

Thomas, that's the Christian name I even gave myself

wow.. this so lovely and interesting.
I learnt something today...no man is an island of knowledge

Paul and John the beloved.

In the true history of isreal Jesus wasn't even recognized not to talk of him being the son of God.

Explain to me why 90% of the Jews still practice Judaism till date and why aren't they Christians.

From the get go on that video Chris has made the mistake and
confused Ashkenazi and Sephardic. Some but not all, married
Turkish people. He then states that Ashkenazi is a German word,
which it is not. He is right in that the book he reviews is wrong in
that they descended from Turkish people (where it’s a common
meme that Kharzars are Turkish or just Turkish)
The word Ashkenazi comes from:
10:2 The sons of JAPHETH; Gomer, and Magog, and Madai, and
Javan, and Tubal, and Meshech, and Tiras.
10:3 And the sons of Gomer; ASHKENAZ, and Riphath, and
Togarmah.
I.E. not Shem Semites, nor could be of Judah.
The land of Ashkenaz was here, http://www.israel-a-history-
of.com/sons-of-noah.html
First of all, the Zionists are NOT Semites, nor Israelites, nor
descendants of Judah,
The Zionists are counterfeit-Jews who have stolen the name Jew
(Judah) from its true owners and are falsely masquerading as the
descendants of Judah, when in reality they do not have one drop
of his blood in their veins.
They misquote the Bible by claiming that the Holy Land is theirs
because God gave it to the descendants of Jacob/Israel and his
son Judah, when they are not Judah’s descendants and thus their
claim is false and fraudulent.
The Zionists and 96% of modern so-called Jews are ASHKENAZI
(Ashke-Nazi) and are not descended from Shem (Sem-ites), but
from Japheth’s grandson Ashkenaz –
Genesis 10:1 Now these [are] the generations of the sons of
Noah, Shem (Sem-ites), Ham, and Japheth: and unto them were
sons born after the flood.
10:2 The sons of JAPHETH; Gomer, and Magog, and Madai, and
Javan, and Tubal, and Meshech, and Tiras.
10:3 And the sons of Gomer; ASHKENAZ, and Riphath, and
Togarmah.
In the time of Jesus, 2000 years ago, the inhabitants of
Jerusalem and Judaea, and their ruler king Herod, were Edomites
(sons of Esau not Jacob/Israel) and thus were counterfeit-Jews,
who had stolen the land from the “House of Judah” whilst the
House of Judah had been in slavery in Babylon and the Idumeans
were pretending to be Israelites when they were really Edomites
(Idumeans) - sons of Esau.
Jesus condemned them and warned the world against them in
Revelation 2:9 and 3:9.
Revelation 2:9 I know thy works, and tribulation, and poverty, (but
thou art rich) and [I know] the blasphemy of them which say they
are Jews, and are NOT, but [are] (Idumeans) the synagogue of
Satan.
3:9 Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which
say they are Jews, and are NOT, but do LIE (Idumeans); behold, I
will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know
that I have loved thee.
In the 8th century AD the Khazar nation descended from
Ashkenaz, who lived North of the Caucasian Mountains, well
outside the Holy Land, converted en-masse to Talmudic Judaism
and since then have inter-married with the Edomites and like the
Edomites falsely claim to be descendants of Jacob/Israel’s son
Judah.
(The Babylonians and the Romans are the same race with a new
name and country - note well New Covenant/Testament -
Revelation 17:5). They destroyed both the First and Second
Temples. They destroyed the First Temple as Babylonians (c.588
B.C.) and the Second Temple as Romans (70 A.D.)
