God give me grace to love and follow you at ALL times.

not really some christains are still going thru hell

i totally disagree, apparently and according are not good enough...they died that's we know, although the bible gave some description on how some died but historians will always make things look the way they want others to perceive it.

So revealing, thanks!

What's the source of these your tales?

Orait

Thank you jesus..your grace is enough

What a price dey all paid for the message...Only very few pastors can do dt nowadays... God help us

Sunnycliff:
Our preachers of today cannot give such messages the apostles gave that led to their death by gruesome means. They rather preach what will cheer the people and not what will prick their hearts. What a great shame!

God make me a true soldier, I will die at my post!

#itpaystoserveJesus

Preachers of today are lovers of money and pleasure

So if Buhari kill Oyedepo or Adeboye, he wont be the first and nothing should happen

Fine babe, good to see your moniker again on nairaland.

Please I have a question:

Would Judas go to Heaven or hell fire? As you can see, his own death get "k" leg

Thanks as you answer..

The Persecution and tempation the current breed of 'sanctimonous men of God' are experiencing is nothing compared to what the disciples Suffered.

Their deaths are grueesome.

what about the Female apostle... Mary Magdalene?

gozzlin:
Lies! There is no iota of veracity in these claims.


There's no single place in the Bible where the death of any of the original apostles was recorded except Judas who hanged himself. Any other claims outside the Supreme authority of the Bible are mere conjectures and utter fallacy.

Besides, how can God allow His first apostles to die such gruesome deaths? I refuse to believe these myths.

The bible is not a historical document and we actually don't have very good or accurate sources on what happened to the 12 apostles after Jesus' death. Much of it is tradition as recorded second-hand in a few sources. So anything written here is simply telling you what is in the primary sources that we have, with not a huge deal of certainty

Hippolytus of Rome is one of those sources, along with Eusebius' Ecclesiastical History

Here is what is recorded:

James, brother of John, son of Zebedee: decapitated by Herod Agrippa (Acts 12:2, see also Hippolytus, and Eusebius EH 3.5

James, son of Alphaeus: stoned to death in Jerusalem (Hippolytus)

Andrew: preached to the Scythians and Thracians (in modern day Georgia and Bulgaria), was crucified on an olive tree at Patrae in Greece (Hippolytus)

Bartholomew (Nathanael): preached in India and was crucified upside down, buried in Allanum (southern Georgia) (acc to Hippolytus). Alternatively, Eusebius records that a certain Pantaenus from Alexandria had visited India and found Christians there with a Hebrew language version of the Gospel of Matthew given to them by Bartholomew.

Matthew/Levi: died at Hierees, Parthia (acc to Hippolytus). Possibly beheaded.

Simon Peter: Irenaeus puts Peter in Rome (Against Heresies 3.1). Eusebius says he was crucified under Nero. Hippolytus also records crucifixion, upside down, under Nero.

Philip: preached and crucified upside down in Phrygia, during the reign of Domitian (Hippolytus)

Simon the Zealot: died in Jerusalem at 120 years old (Hippolytus)

Thaddaeus/Judas son of James: preached to Edessa, through Mesopotamia, and died at Berytus (Hippolytus)

Thomas: preaches through the Parthian empire all the way to India, where he was killed by a pine spear (Hippolytus)

John, son of Zebedee: believed to have died of old age. Hippolytus records his exile to Patmos, and his death in the time of Trajan. Tertullian records a tradition that they attempted to boil him alive but to no avail.

On this account, I doubt Judas would make/made heaven. The bible does not condone suicide

We the last days christians have loads of work to do: to preach alone na waec, let alone die for one's faith......i am not a saint here ooo all wailers take note

If Christ had mixed his desciples with men and women, am sure some would have murdered some among themselves or problem would have separated them. Women sef...

Like if its true, share if its a lie.

Go and study church history so as to clear your ignorance. These deaths are all historical facts. It is your type in two hundred years from now that will argue that Hitler never existed, but only a made up myth.

The bible is a historical and factual document.

Even apostle paul was beheaded.
My God make me a true Christian soldier.
Wanna take the gospel to the ends of the earth.
Wanna live for you.
Wanna die for you.

You are ignorant of the working and the ways of God.St Steven was killed by apostle Paul and his gang

Make una no let Oristejafor and co change their minds o

Are you a Christian and still not looked down on by the world? Think again.

If it were today
Judas wouldn't need to commit suicide coz some Nigerian youths would have started a protest for him with different hass tags
