Without Jesus nobody will make heaven.

That's why Jesus lives & mohammed is dead.

Ancient records show that Jesus has always been known as the Son of God.

Since 100ad it was recorded that Jesus is the Son of God, proving its not an addition to the bible.

Anyone telling u that Jesus is not the Son of God is an antichrist.

1Jn 2:22 KJV
Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son.


This is why Christians reject Mohamed.

Is Jesus Christ sent only to the Jews with what he did to Romans, Gentiles, etc compare with what that cripple messenger of yours that couldn't step his legs outside Saudi Arabia to proclaimed his jihad?

Jesus went away from there, and withdrew into the region of Tyre and Sidon. 22 And a Canaanite woman from that region came out and began to cry out, saying, “Have mercy on me, Lord, Son of David; my daughter is severely demon-possessed.” 23 But He did not answer her with even a word. And His disciples came up and urged Him, saying, “Send her away, because she keeps shouting [a]at us!” 24 But He answered and said, “I was sent only to the lost sheep of the house of Israel.”

Jesus Christ don't just peached to the Gentiles, he healed many of them ELERIBU NI E JESUS HIMSELF SAID I WASNT SENT TO THE GENTILE, SEMERIAN BUT THE JEW...
I WAS ONLY SENT TO THE JEW.... SO WHY RHE LIE...

He healed a Gadarene (Gentile) demoniac (Matthew 8:28-34). Ori rẹ burú no be that the man live within the Palestine where where he meet Jesus... Ayé rẹ ti bajẹ se

Another time, among 10 lepers healed, one was a Samaritan (a mixed race, half-Jew) eleri àwọn to nsọ live within the reach of Jesus not that Jesus went to there nation...aye rẹ ta pau bibon

Jesus remarked upon the fact that only the foreigner returned to thank Him (Luke 17:12-19). Oponu those that live in your country that are not originate from your country what did you call them🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 oti sofo nibi iro

Another example of Jesus reaching the Gentiles involved a Roman centurion whose servant was healed. Commander of a band of 100 foreign soldiers quartered at Capernaum to keep the peace, this Roman leader was despised by the Jews who resented this “army of occupation.” Conscious of his own authority as a military man, he humbly assured Jesus that it would not be necessary for Him to go to his house to heal his servant (and thus render Himself unclean — because He was a Jewish man — by entering a Gentile home). “But only say the word, and my servant will be healed,” he declared with genuine faith (Matthew 8:8, ESV). Jesus turned and announced to the Jewish crowd which was following Him: “Truly, I tell you, with no one in Israel have I found such faith” (Matthew 8:10, ESV). He did not stop there but continued with this solemn prediction: “I tell you, many such foreigners shall come from the east and the west to join Abraham, Isaac and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven. But many others who thought they were ‘sons of the kingdom’ (the chosen people of Israel) shall be shut out” (Matthew 8: 11-12, author’s paraphrase).


In Jerusalem, during the week of Passover, a group of Greeks who had made a commitment to follow the laws of Judaism asked to speak with Jesus (John 12). Their request for an audience caused Jesus to declare: “The hour has come for the Son of Man to be glorified” (John 12:23, ESV). The deep interest of the Greeks was evidence that the world was ready for His redemptive mission to be culminated by His atoning death: “And I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all people to myself” (John 12:32, ESV). “All men” — Greeks as well as Jews — this is the clear implication of these profound words recorded by John.

Can you now see that you are slowpoke because Jesus was in Palestine talking of aliens to join in the cause of God.. not that he left Palestine for another place🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 aye rẹ ti ta werey shoot himself for leg
According to religious books like te'amire Mariam and others, the lord Jesus christ visited Ethiopia with his mother during the time they flee from Israel

Europe history on minor marriage

Historically, marriages involving minors were relatively common in Europe, especially in medieval and early modern times. These marriages were often driven by political alliances, economic considerations, or cultural norms. Here are notable examples and contexts of minor marriages in European history:

1. Royal and Noble Marriages

Minor marriages were particularly common among royalty and nobility, where political alliances were prioritized over the personal readiness of the individuals involved.

Richard II of England and Isabella of Valois (1396): Richard, aged 29, married Isabella of Valois, who was only 6 years old. The marriage was a political alliance between England and France during the Hundred Years' War. The union was never consummated due to her age, and she was later sent back to France after Richard's death.

Mary, Queen of Scots and Francis II of France (1558): Mary married Francis II at the age of 15, while Francis was 14. This was a strategic alliance between Scotland and France to counter England’s influence.

Margaret Beaufort (1443–1509): The mother of Henry VII of England, Margaret was married to Edmund Tudor when she was around 12 years old. She gave birth to Henry at age 13.


2. Religious and Cultural Practices

In medieval Europe, canon law allowed girls to marry at 12 and boys at 14, based on the idea that these ages marked the onset of physical maturity.

Anne de Bretagne (1477–1514): Anne, Duchess of Brittany, was married to Charles VIII of France when she was 14, securing Brittany's annexation to France.

Blanche of Castile (1188–1252): Blanche was betrothed at age 12 to Louis VIII of France as part of a political arrangement between Castile and France. She became Queen Consort of France.


3. Social Norms and Peasantry

In lower social classes, the age of marriage varied widely. While young marriages occurred, they were less common among peasants than among the aristocracy due to the need for economic stability. However, girls as young as 13 or 14 might marry in agrarian societies if they were deemed ready to contribute to the household.

4. The Habsburg Dynasty

The Habsburgs, one of Europe's most powerful royal families, frequently arranged minor marriages to consolidate their empire.

Philip II of Spain and Maria Manuela of Portugal (1543): Philip married Maria when she was 16, and he was 16 as well. Both were still minors by today's standards.

Maria Theresa of Spain and Louis XIV of France (1660): Maria Theresa was 15 when she married her cousin Louis XIV to solidify peace between Spain and France.


5. Criticism and Decline

By the 18th and 19th centuries, the Age of Enlightenment and changing views on childhood, consent, and education led to a decline in minor marriages. Laws raising the age of consent for marriage were introduced across Europe.

So call American history

2. Legal Context in the 19th Century

During the 18th and 19th centuries, U.S. marriage laws were loosely regulated and heavily influenced by English common law. Many states allowed girls as young as 12 and boys as young as 14 to marry with parental consent. Examples:

Laura Ingalls Wilder (1885): The famous author of Little House on the Prairie married Almanzo Wilder at age 15. He was 28. Their marriage was legal and not uncommon in frontier communities, where survival often took precedence over formal schooling or age norms.



---

3. Child Bride Marriages

Child marriage was more prevalent in rural and frontier areas due to limited educational opportunities, the need for labor in agricultural communities, and cultural norms.

Susannah North Martin (Early 1600s): In New England, Susannah married at around age 16, which was considered early but legal. She later became a well-known figure during the Salem Witch Trials.



---

4. Political and Economic Alliances

Some marriages were motivated by political or economic gain, similar to practices in Europe.

Sarah Childress Polk and James K. Polk (1824): Sarah married future U.S. President James K. Polk when she was 19, though earlier engagement discussions began when she was a minor.



---

5. Legal and Social Shifts

By the late 19th and early 20th centuries, reforms in child labor, education, and women's rights led to increasing scrutiny of minor marriages. Laws were introduced to raise the legal marriage age:

Child Marriage Resistance in the 20th Century: In 1889, Delaware became the first state to set the minimum marriage age at 15 for girls, signaling a shift toward modern standards.



---

6. Notable Cultural Examples

Jerry Lee Lewis Scandal (1957): Though not historical, rock musician Jerry Lee Lewis married his 13-year-old cousin, Myra Gale Brown. The marriage caused a scandal, but it highlighted the lingering permissiveness toward minor marriages in some regions, especially the rural South.


---

Decline of the Practice

Reforms during the Progressive Era (1890s–1920s) emphasized compulsory education and child welfare, leading to higher marriage ages. By the mid-20th century, societal norms shifted away from early marriage, though legal exceptions for minors with parental or judicial consent persisted.
