MarkNsukkaBread:
If you go to the bathrooms of very rich people they have what is called a bidet, this is because using water is actually better than using tissue

Using your bare hands to touch your faeces when you're not bathing is pure witchcraft. That's what the tissue prevents

MindHacker9009:
The Jesus christ they are worshipping today is not a historical person but a Roman empire invented idol.

These are some of the real Jesus' in the first century below:

Jesus, son of Sapphias (Rebel Leader)
Mentioned in: The Jewish War, Book 2.
This Jesus did lead an attack on Romans, and here are the details:
Jesus was one of the chief rebels in Tiberias, a city in Galilee.
He led a group of fishermen and poor people who plundered the palace of Herod the Tetrarch during the early stages of the First Jewish-Roman War (66–70 CE).
He and his men destroyed property and took control of parts of the city.
Josephus, who was then a commander of Jewish forces in Galilee, was sent to negotiate or subdue them.

Jesus ben Ananias:
Jesus ben Ananias was a Jewish peasant who, around 62 CE, began loudly prophesying the destruction of Jerusalem and the Temple. For over seven years, he wandered the city crying, "Woe to Jerusalem!" Despite being beaten and tortured by Roman authorities, he never changed his message. During the Roman siege in 70 CE, he shouted, "Woe to me also!" just before being killed by a stone from a Roman catapult. Josephus saw him as a mad yet eerily accurate doomsday prophet.

God Almighty of the Original Torah is the only true God.

You jews killed jesus and hated him becuase he told you people look torah is past tense, festivals past tense, animal sacrifice gone. Just worship God in Spirit and truth. Pray to God through my name. These changes wan kill una you guys decided to kill him because you refuse to aknowledge him as the Christ.

Well the Sad news is regardless of what you believe you can never be able to thwart Gods divine purpose. Your father the devil has been trying since centuries, he has always failed. From killing all Jobs sons & daughters in a day, to slaughtering male babies in jesus infancy, he has been destined to fail. So open your eyes and choose light.

Conclusion

The evidence detailed above increases the likelihood that Jesus existed. The contexts they speak to are consistent with the biblical narrative. None of the persons referenced were sympathetic to the Christian cause, and none questioned the historicity of Jesus as the central figure of the Christian faith.



The two primary sources of specific evidence for the existence of Jesus come from two different perspectives. Josephus was a Jewish historian, while Tacitus was a Roman historian. Both mention Jesus by name in such a way that there can be no doubt that they considered him a historical figure. In both instances, the historians refer to the context of Jesus’s death at the hand of Pontius Pilate.


Josephus also references James, the brother of Jesus, indicating that he understood that Jesus Christ was a real person. His lineage as the son of a high priest placed him in the ideal position to be aware of the challenge the new-found Christian religion posed to Judaism.


Both Tacitus and Josephus are credible historians from the first century CE, and there is no reason to doubt their references to Jesus as a historical person when scholars hold the rest of their work in high regard. It is significant that arguably the two most revered historians from the first century CE mention Jesus by name. Neither of them had a Christian bias that may cause the skeptical observer to doubt the veracity of their work when referencing Jesus Christ.

Josephus

Flavius Josephus, a Jewish historian who lived in the 1st century CE, provides significant references to Jesus in his works, primarily in his Antiquities of the Jews and The Jewish War. Although some of the writings by Josephus have been subject to later Christian interpolations, most scholars agree that the core passages referring to Jesus are authentic. These passages include mentions of Jesus as a wise man, a doer of surprising deeds, and his crucifixion under Pontius Pilate.



Josephus wrote:


“Festus was now dead, and Albinus was put upon the road; so he assembled the Sanhedrin of judges, and brought before them the brother of Jesus, who was called Christ, whose name was James, and some others…”


Josephus was born shortly after the death of Jesus and, being the son of the high priest Matthias, he grew up in an environment that was acutely aware of the fledgling new Christian sect. He may even have heard some of the apostles preach.


Later, in Antiquities 18.63, Josephus wrote:


“At this time there appeared Jesus, a wise man if indeed one should call him a man. For he was a doer of startling deeds, a teacher of people who receive the truth with pleasure. And he gained a following both among many Jews and among many of Greek origin. He was the Messiah. And when Pilate, because of an accusation made by the leading men among us, condemned him to the cross, those who had loved him previously did not cease to do so. For he appeared to them on the third day living again, just as the divine prophets had spoken of these and countless other wondrous things about him. And up until this very day the tribe of Christians, named after him, has not died out.”

Josephus remains a respected and often referenced historian from the first and early second century CE. His work makes direct reference to Jesus and confirms the historical context of the death of Jesus Christ.

Specific Evidence


Two historians from the early centuries CE made specific references to Jesus in their works. They were Tacitus and Josephus.


TACITUS

Cornelius Tacitus, a Roman historian lived between 54 and 120 CE, and some scholars consider him the greatest Roman historian of all time. He wrote about Jesus in his work the Annals around 116 CE, where he makes the following comment when discussing the scapegoats Nero blamed for the Great Fire of Rome in 64 CE:


“Their name [Christians] comes from Christ, who, during the reign of Tiberius, had been executed by the procurator Pontius Pilate.”


Here, Tacitus confirms the existence of Jesus and his crucifixion at the hand of Pontius Pilate, and he continues to speak of the spread of Christianity in the Roman Empire, albeit from a hostile Roman perspective. He does not show any doubt that Jesus was a historical person.

Jesus in Non-Christian Sources


Six non-Christian sources are relevant to the question of whether or not Jesus was a historical figure: Tacitus, Josephus, Pliny the Younger, Suetonius, Lucian, and Celsus. Some references by these authors are controversial because they are not entirely specific to Jesus Christ but make mention of early Christians. The historicity of Jesus is not necessarily lost in the inexactness, however, these sources are of lesser value than those that reference Jesus by name.



The specific evidence is limited to the historians Josephus and Tacitus showing that Jesus did exist.

Keep in mind that early Christianity was considered a sect of Judaism in the Roman world, and references to Christ and Christians are sometimes derogatory. Jesus, as the central figure of Christianity, may not be mentioned directly in these references, though the Christian movement had its foundation in the life and actions of Jesus. Such references indicate that Jesus Christ did live during the 1st century CE.

Many people doubt that Jesus Christ existed. Others believe as a matter of faith. But is there historical evidence that he existed? Lets find out

Dtruthspeaker:
Don't the music and drums aid in the prayer? Though I think it depends on the Spirit, time and type of prayer which determines the mood whether it is ok or silence would have been better.

However, since the preachings these days are horribly wrong every activity follows suit.

If you want to speak to your parents or someone you hold in high esteem like your boss can you speak to them while playing music simultaneously, i doubt you can as its a sign of disrespect . Why then should it be different for the Creator of Heaven and Earth , The owner of our life.

Does it show respect?

advanceDNA:
I feel u are taking context wrongly ....

When Jesus said turn the other cheek when they slap you, he ddnt literally mean turn the other cheek for u to keep getting hurt....and he certainly ddnt mean go and enter inside cupboard before you can pray....

The same Jesus prayed many times in public and even prayed with his disciples in a garden, where he faulted them for not being able to pray for an hour as they all slept off.....

As for praying loud, this is a relative term..a person is can pray as audible or as quiet as they wish as long as their aim is not to show off or seek validation of men like the Pharisees which was Jesus' warning....

Lastly, why would you say someone's prayer is incomprehensible?..are u the one he's praying to? .the God he or she is praying to hears what the heart is saying at the end of the day

Ok sir


So how can you classify this kind of prayer then?

Redoil:
can you please define what prayer is before we star arguing

According to Oxford prayer
/prɛː/
noun
noun: prayer; plural noun: prayers

a solemn request for help or expression of thanks addressed to God or another deity.

Perhaps there is an answer for doing the direct opposite. i'm waiting for the reasons to justify the act of praying with music and drums.

We learn everyday
