The disciples of Jesus didn't die of political death, they were killed for preaching Jesus crucified and heaven, they were killed because they preached "without Jesus there's no heaven for anyone", they didn't encumber themselves with the politics of this world.
The people that killed them are political leaders in church and kings of the world at that time and these disciples converted evil kings to follow Christ none of today's clergymen can do that

You want them to become political activists instead of leading people to heaven?
What do you mean who is talking of political activist here , those disciples of Jesus Christ were able to use the gospel of Jesus Christ to change even the worst kings then which is political too , none of your clergymen can use same gospel to touch the heart of these bad leaders we have today .

Omote! All the people that have died in Nigeria because of their faith in Christ, including Deborah is a fable too, right?

How I found little truth on this!

Think of this:
Peter was crucified upside down cross in Rome and he is the First Pope. Did you know that the sign of cross by Catholics churches is cross upside-down? Check it out. Meaning they are not really worshipping God but Peter (Pope) indirectly.
Meaning that ur head is down ward na not upward. The sign starts from ur head upwards

As they were crucifying and murdering them, no miracle happened to save them, they preach of those powers and perform wonders with it yet they can't save themselves with it, I no just get.
Same statement said by one of the thieves crucified with Jesus. "If u r d Christ, save ur self and us"

Sounds like a good subject of little research for you.

Let me get you going with this background. Many texts documenting early Christian beliefs, teachings, and events were written, but only a portion were deemed authoritative and included in the Bible by early church leaders. Factors such as theological consistency, apostolic origin, and widespread acceptance influenced which books were accepted. As a result, numerous writings, often referred to as apocryphal or non-canonical, were excluded, though they still offer valuable insights into early Christianity and its diverse perspectives.
Ruled out the possibility of it being false for it not to have been included?

[quote author=Racoon post=135041100][/quote]Great reminder writeup! This is one of the only things that unites you and I on Nairaland together while ipob message divides us. This is a great selfless sacrifice from the apostles that laid solid foundation for the church and body of Christ. Happy Easter!

Not sure what you mean? If you are interested in the topic, go ahead with your research and share your opinion if that's your goal. I have no personal opinion on this & I rule nothing out, I was not there.

You've said it all. It wasn't included for lack of authenticity or still, reasons best known to them.

Nonsense! 🙄🙄🙄🙄

The Rock referenced by Jesus Christ of Israel, an Israelite, is the same Rock that is the Lord of Israel, not some guy whose name translates to rock. undecided

“The Lord is the Rock, and his work is perfect! Yes, all his ways are right! God is true and faithful. He is good and honest.

No one really knows how any of them died. The list above was created by rogue bishops, most of them non-Israelites— mostly Romans at the time — whose purpose was to hijack the movement that existed before the destruction of Jerusalem and Judah for their personal and political gain. undecided

No wonder… I suspected so because there isn’t any account of their deaths in the Bible… Thanks for letting me know.

Not just that! The disciples were all Israelites, and the ones who destroyed their former holy city and country around 70 AD, exiling them from parts of the Roman empire at that — the Romans— are the same people who went on to proclaim themselves church fathers over a movement that comprised 100% of Israelite before the destruction and exile. Christianity is a farce! undecided

Christianity is 100% real.
The Bible might not have recorded how the apostles and disciples died but the Bible is the most realistic book that has ever been written. And it's all pointing us to our beloved LORD AND SAVIOUR JESUS CHRIST who died for us more than 2000 years ago to redeem us and restore us back to Himself.

1. Christianity is a sca,m same as every religion out there. undecided

2. The Bible, which is a Book solely about the people of Israel and their God, YHWH, God of Israel, has nothing to do with Christianity, which is instead founded on the theories and doctrines created by bishops, most of whom were of Roman descent. undecided

3. There is absolutely no direct connection between the religion of Christianity and the person of Jesus Christ or the many stories written of Him in that book. All your Christian connections are instead tales manufactured by the mostly Roman group of self-installed bishops, whom you point to as your church fathers. undecided
