brocab:
{Matthew 10:5-15} 5 These twelve Jesus sent out with the following instructions: “Do not go among the Gentiles or enter any town of the Samaritans.
6 Go rather to the lost sheep of Israel.
7 As you go, proclaim this message: ‘The kingdom of heaven has come near.’
8 Heal the sick, raise the dead, cleanse those who have leprosy, drive out demons. Freely you have received; freely give.
9 Do not get any gold or silver or copper to take with you in your belts..
10 No bag for the journey or extra shirt or sandals or a staff, for the worker is worth his keep.
11 WHATEVER TOWN OR VILLAGE YOU ENTER, search there for some worthy person and stay at their house until you leave.
12 As you enter the home, give it your greeting.
13 If the home is deserving, let your peace rest on it; if it is not, let your peace return to you.
14 If anyone will not welcome you or listen to your words, leave that home or town and shake the dust off your feet.
15 Truly I tell you, it will be more bearable for Sodom and Gomorrah on the day of judgment than for that town.
I can't seem to find where you believe Jesus said: knock on every door? Plus it would be pointless for me to knock on your door-you can't accept the Word of God on this page now, so what difference would it make if I was to knock on a door that is so unwelcoming..

Well if you're not doubting Jesus' command of ENTERING HOUSES so you must agree with the terms and conditions of the owner of the house. In my own community, you'll knock or press the door bell before you can gain entrance into any house,so knocking is most appropriate here!
Secondly Isaiah's prophecy regarding the best preacher ever says "he will not shout in the streets" {Isaiah 42:2} and Jesus perfectly fit in to the description{Matthew 12:19).
Before Jesus,all those who preached are often found in streets and main roads,John the baptist was the last preacher that used that old pattern, but when Jesus (CHRIST, ANOINTED, MESSIAH) commenced His own preaching and teaching program, everything changed!
Today anyone engaging in any kind of preaching programs but fails to follow Jesus' pattern is on his/her own because "Jesus is Lord" not just on your mouth but to "follow His footsteps CLOSELY" if you're truthfully convinced that He is Lord over you. 1Peter 2:21
Prove what i've said wrong from the scriptures (not with your man-made tradition) then i'll accept whatever you've got to say!

johnw47:



the two Spirit beings God and the Word are indeed two persons and the one God:


Father and the Word are two beings and they are both God,


Jesus is Father God's Son, He is also God the Word, He is both man and God

Thomas calling Jesus my Lord and my God is very plain and clear,

of course they walk together in agreement, they are also the one spirit which is God.

The Trinity traditional religion has been in existence for almost two thousand years now so it's very difficult for them to agree that it's untrue.
What baffles me is the fact that they've all turned against those who initiated the TRINITY doctrine (Catholics) but why is it that they're sticking to the doctrine taught by their former religious Fathers is the question.

You can't quote the passage? OK let me quote it for you


The Council at Jerusalem
15 Certain people came down from Judea to Antioch and were teaching the believers: “Unless you are circumcised, according to the custom taught by Moses, you cannot be saved.” 2 This brought Paul and Barnabas into sharp dispute and debate with them. So Paul and Barnabas were appointed, along with some other believers, to go up to Jerusalem to see the apostles and elders about this question. 3 The church sent them on their way, and as they traveled through Phoenicia and Samaria, they told how the Gentiles had been converted. This news made all the believers very glad. 4 When they came to Jerusalem, they were welcomed by the church and the apostles and elders, to whom they reported everything God had done through them.

5 Then some of the believers who belonged to the party of the Pharisees stood up and said, “The Gentiles must be circumcised and required to keep the law of Moses.”

6 The apostles and elders met to consider this question. 7 After much discussion, Peter got up and addressed them: “Brothers, you know that some time ago God made a choice among you that the Gentiles might hear from my lips the message of the gospel and believe. 8 God, who knows the heart, showed that he accepted them by giving the Holy Spirit to them, just as he did to us. 9 He did not discriminate between us and them, for he purified their hearts by faith. 10 Now then, why do you try to test God by putting on the necks of Gentiles a yoke that neither we nor our ancestors have been able to bear? 11 No! We believe it is through the grace of our Lord Jesus that we are saved, just as they are.”

12 The whole assembly became silent as they listened to Barnabas and Paul telling about the signs and wonders God had done among the Gentiles through them. 13 When they finished, James spoke up. “Brothers,” he said, “listen to me. 14 Simon[a] has described to us how God first intervened to choose a people for his name from the Gentiles. 15 The words of the prophets are in agreement with this, as it is written:

16 “‘After this I will return
and rebuild David’s fallen tent.
Its ruins I will rebuild,
and I will restore it,
17 that the rest of mankind may seek the Lord,
even all the Gentiles who bear my name,
says the Lord, who does these things’[b]—
18 things known from long ago.[c]

19 “It is my judgment, therefore, that we should not make it difficult for the Gentiles who are turning to God. 20 Instead we should write to them, telling them to abstain from food polluted by idols, from sexual immorality, from the meat of strangled animals and from blood. 21 For the law of Moses has been preached in every city from the earliest times and is read in the synagogues on every Sabbath.”

The Council’s Letter to Gentile Believers
22 Then the apostles and elders, with the whole church, decided to choose some of their own men and send them to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas. They chose Judas (called Barsabbas) and Silas, men who were leaders among the believers. 23 With them they sent the following letter:

The apostles and elders, your brothers,

To the Gentile believers in Antioch, Syria and Cilicia:

Greetings.

24 We have heard that some went out from us without our authorization and disturbed you, troubling your minds by what they said. 25 So we all agreed to choose some men and send them to you with our dear friends Barnabas and Paul— 26 men who have risked their lives for the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. 27 Therefore we are sending Judas and Silas to confirm by word of mouth what we are writing. 28 It seemed good to the Holy Spirit and to us not to burden you with anything beyond the following requirements: 29 You are to abstain from food sacrificed to idols, from blood, from the meat of strangled animals and from sexual immorality. You will do well to avoid these things.

Farewell.

30 So the men were sent off and went down to Antioch, where they gathered the church together and delivered the letter. 31 The people read it and were glad for its encouraging message. 32 Judas and Silas, who themselves were prophets, said much to encourage and strengthen the believers. 33 After spending some time there, they were sent off by the believers with the blessing of peace to return to those who had sent them. [34] [d] 35 But Paul and Barnabas remained in Antioch, where they and many others taught and preached the word of the Lord.

Disagreement Between Paul and Barnabas
36 Some time later Paul said to Barnabas, “Let us go back and visit the believers in all the towns where we preached the word of the Lord and see how they are doing.” 37 Barnabas wanted to take John, also called Mark, with them, 38 but Paul did not think it wise to take him, because he had deserted them in Pamphylia and had not continued with them in the work. 39 They had such a sharp disagreement that they parted company. Barnabas took Mark and sailed for Cyprus, 40 but Paul chose Silas and left, commended by the believers to the grace of the Lord. 41 He went through Syria and Cilicia, strengthening the churches.


Did you see anything like governing body written in acts 15?
You are just assuming. The governing body is only in your imagination. In real life nothing like governing body is ever mentioned in the Bible.

Still waiting for the bible passage where governing body appears. Lol

See someone that's calling another person brain dead. He can't even provide a bible verse that governing body appears. Lol

I think when people point out that certain phrases you use are never mentioned in the Bible you begin to curse the people. It's a normal phenomenon. When you realise that everything you have ever been taught in your magazines and everything you've ever believed in life from your magazines are never mentioned in bible you become aggressive and confused so the only way you know how to console yourself is by cursing.

Other religious groups has a single religious leader called daddy GENERAL OVERSEER (Daddy GO) it's like that's boldly written in the Bible, unlike the GB that was FABRICATED by JWs! so please Sir,
can you suggest a better GROUP name that's appropriate for such a small group Sir? God bless you!

You JW's are so rude, and you call yourselves someone of importance-Where in the scriptures does it say Jesus said; knock on every door? No where do we find in the scriptures Jesus ever saying go out unto all the nations and preach from House to House without an invitation. Jesus was against this sort of preaching-matter of fact Jesus said: Do not give what is holy to the dogs; nor cast your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you in pieces.
{Acts 5:42} Day after day, in the temple courts and from house to house, they never stopped teaching and proclaiming the good news that Jesus is the Messiah.
And if you were to have read the scriptures proper, you would find Paul preached in Houses from People He met in the court yards, after he was invited to go to their houses to eat and preach, some asked Paul to stay a couple of days..
Paul “sent to Ephesus, and called the elders of the Church,” saying to them, “I…have taught you publicly, and from house to house.”
He taught the Church leaders in their own homes. Paul did not go from house to house, teaching whomever answered his knock at the door.
Based on a quick reading and misinterpretation of {Acts 20:20} many believe that the apostle Paul preached the gospel of the kingdom from house to house, to those who were unconverted. But when the entire paragraph is read, starting in {verse 17} the proper meaning can be understood.
Even at his own hired house in Rome, Paul “received all that came in unto him, preaching the kingdom of God,” which Christ had commanded him to preach {Acts 28:30-31}
So Paul didn't have to go door knocking-because it was those who wanted the learn the gospel 'who knocked on Paul's door, maybe the JW's should think about knocking on my door and come in and sit and learn that very same gospel Paul had preached!
Christ had personally taught the gospel to Paul {I Corinthians. 15:8, Galatians 1:11-2:2} One of Christ’s teachings was that we are not to force our beliefs on anyone {Matthew 7:6}
This makes clear that Paul did not try to convert people by preaching from house to house, nor should the JW's harass people house to house, Paul's public teachings were carried out mainly in the Jewish synagogues, they were arrested constantly in the temple court yards!

Janosky:


Brocab quoted v11-14 , so your brain shut down too?
if they are not knocking on every door & preaching , how would Jesus disciples "search
there for some worthy person and stay at their house?"

After your initial denial, u come dey speak with both sides of your mouth.

the only doubt is in the minds of non believers:

2Co_4:4  In whom the god of this world hath blinded the minds of them which believe not, lest the light of the glorious gospel of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine unto them.



Ecc_7:6  For as the crackling of thorns under a pot, so is the laughter of the fool: this also is vanity.

Janosky:


You be brain dead idiot.

now now false jw mumu brain
don't go getting yourself all angry and upset, you hear

you said: "i and the father are one" means that they are in agreement

but it also means they are one Lord - one God - one spirit, God is a Spirit

Jesus said Himself "God is one Lord"
he is not two gods as you false jw's falsely believe

Heb. 1:8 and Psalm 45:6, "God is thy throne."
written by a christian

Your Throne O God "But with reference to the Son: 'God is your throne forever and ever, and [the] scepter of your kingdom is the scepter of uprightness'" The New World Translation.

In this particularly interesting verse, God is addressing the Son. The Greek construction of Hebrews 1:8 allows the text to be translated in two legitimate ways:

"God is your throne forever and ever . . .
and
"Thy Throne O God, is forever and ever . . . "

Because of the Watchtower presupposition that Jesus is not God, they choose the first version; otherwise, the Father would be calling Jesus God, and that goes against Jehovah's Witness theology. Yet, most Bibles do not translate it the way the New World Translation does. They choose the other way. Why? Two reasons.

First, Heb. 1:8 is a quote from Psalm 45:6, which says,

"Thy Throne, O God, is forever and ever; a scepter of uprightness is the scepter of Thy Kingdom" (All Bible quotes are from the NASB).

In fact, the ASV, KJV, NIV, and NKJV all translated it as "Your throne, O God . . . " The RSV translates it as "Your divine throne endures for ever and ever," "but this is a highly unlikely translation because it requires understanding the Hebrew noun for "throne" in construct state, something extremely unusual when a noun has a pronominal suffix, as this one does . . . The KJV, NIV, and NASB all take the verse in its plain, straightforward sense, as do the ancient translations . . . "1

When we look at the Hebrew, we see that there is no grammatical requirement for this translation though it is considered to be the best translation by most translators. In and of itself, this is not conclusive because the context of this verse in Psalm 45 is dealing with a king which would make one wonder why he would be addressed as God; but, it is not uncommon for NT writers to take a verse in the OT that seemingly deals with one subject and apply it to another. They knew something we didn't. In fact, in Ezekiel 28:12-17 is a section that deals with the fall of the devil. Verse 13 describes how he was in the garden of Eden. Verse 14 says he was the anointed cherub, (v. 15), etc., but the context of this section begins with an address to the king of Tyre (v. 12). Yet, right after Ezekiel is told to write to the King of Tyre, he then goes on to describe what the great majority of theologians agree with--a description of the devil's fall. So, we need to look at the context into which the writer of Hebrews put Psalm 45:6. He addressed it to Jesus. Therefore, Psalm 45 is a Messianic Psalm and must in interpreted in light of the NT not the other way around.

Nevertheless, the context of this verse follows:

"For to which of the angels did He ever say, "Thou are My son, Today I have begotten Thee"? And again, "I will be a Father to Him, and He shall be a Son to Me"? 6And when he again brings the first-born into the world, He says, "And let all the angels of God worship Him." 7And of the angels He says "Who makes His angels winds, and His ministers a flame of fire." 8But of the Son He says, "Thy Throne, O God, is forever and ever, and the righteous scepter is the scepter of His kingdom, 9Thou hast loved righteousness and hated lawlessness; therefore God, Thy God, hath anointed Thee with the oil of gladness above Thy companions. 10And, "Thou, Lord, in the beginning didst lay the foundation of the earth, And the heavens are the works of Thy hands; 11They will perish, but though remainest . . . " (Heb. 1:5-11).

To say "God is your throne" doesn't make sense. What does it mean to say, "But to which of the angels did he say, God is your throne." What would that mean?

Also worth noting here is verse 10: "Thou, Lord, in the beginning didst lay the foundation of the earth, And the heavens are the works of Thy hands . . . " This is a quote from Psalm 102:24-25 which says, "I say, 'O my God, do not take me away in the midst of my days, Thy years are throughout all generations. 25Of old Thou didst found the earth; And the heavens are the work of Thy hands.'" Clearly, God is the one being addressed in Psalm 102. It is God who laid the foundations of the earth. Yet, in Heb. 1:10, Jesus is called 'Lord' and is said to be the one who laid the foundation of the earth. This becomes even more interesting when we note that in Isaiah 44:24 it says, "Thus says the Lord, your Redeemer, and the one who formed you from the womb, "I, the Lord, am the maker of all things, Stretching out the heavens by Myself, And spreading out the earth all alone." If God was laying the foundations of the earth alone, that would mean that either Jesus has to be God, second person of the Trinity, who laid the foundation the same as YHWH did; or we have a contradiction in the Bible. Clearly, this section of Hebrews is proclaiming that Jesus is God. Therefore, contextually, it is best to translate Heb. 1:8 as, "Thy Throne, O God. . ." and the Father call Jesus God.

The Watchtower organization denies that Jesus is God. Therefore, it cannot permit any verses in the Bible to even hint that Jesus is God. That is why they choose a translation that does not best fit the context or overall theology of the Bible.

brocab:
Where in the scriptures does it say Jesus said; knock on every door? No where do we find in the scriptures Jesus ever saying go out unto all the nations and preach from House to House without an invitation.

[color=#990000]{Acts 5:42} Day after day, in the temple courts and from house to house, they never stopped teaching and proclaiming the good news that Jesus is the Messiah.
And if you were to have read the scriptures proper, you would find Paul preached in Houses from People He met in the court yards, after he was invited to go to their houses to eat and preach, some asked Paul to stay a couple of days..
Paul “sent to Ephesus, and called the elders of the Church,” saying to them, “I…have taught you publicly, and from house to house.”
He taught the Church leaders in their own homes. Paul did not go from house to house, teaching whomever answered his knock at the door.
Based on a quick reading and misinterpretation of {Acts 20:20} many believe that the apostle Paul preached the gospel of the kingdom from house to house, to those who were unconverted. But when the entire paragraph is read, starting in {verse 17} the proper meaning can be understood.
Even at his own hired house in Rome, Paul “received all that came in unto him, preaching the kingdom of God,” which Christ had commanded him to preach {Acts 28:30-31}
So Paul didn't have to go door knocking-because it was those who wanted the learn the gospel 'who knocked on Paul's door,
Christ had personally taught the gospel to Paul [color=#990000]{I Corinthians. 15:8, Galatians 1:11-2:2} One of Christ’s teachings was that we are not to force our beliefs on anyone {Matthew 7:6}
This makes clear that Paul did not try to convert people by preaching from house to house, nor should the JW's harass people house to house, Paul's public teachings were carried out mainly in the Jewish synagogues, all in the temple court yards!

.

Hhmmm!
Acts 5:42 u quoted knocks out your fictitious post above .
What would Paul achieve by "proclaiming the good news" to an Ephesian christian in the house of that christian?
Wetin Paul wan preach to another believer?
In Acts 20:17-20 Paul trained the Ephesians Christians on the art of preaching.
He taught them to preach publicly & from house to house, they learned the ropes while preaching with Paul from house to house.
Matt 10:8,11-14 reinforced it.
The early Christians did not deviate from their Master's instructions


Jesus used every opportunity to preach, John chapter 4, Paul copied Christ example too.
From house to house, in the market place, his rented apartment, - all na him preaching territory. Acts28;17-30

Heb. 1:8 and Psalm 45:6, "God is thy throne."
written by a christian

Your Throne O God "But with reference to the Son: 'God is your throne forever and ever, and [the] scepter of your kingdom is the scepter of uprightness'" The New World Translation.

In this particularly interesting verse, God is addressing the Son. The Greek construction of Hebrews 1:8 allows the text to be translated in two legitimate ways:

"God is your throne forever and ever . . .
and
"Thy Throne O God, is forever and ever . . . "

Because of the Watchtower presupposition that Jesus is not God, they choose the first version; otherwise, the Father would be calling Jesus God, and that goes against Jehovah's Witness theology. Yet, most Bibles do not translate it the way the New World Translation does. They choose the other way. Why? Two reasons.

First, Heb. 1:8 is a quote from Psalm 45:6, which says,

"Thy Throne, O God, is forever and ever; a scepter of uprightness is the scepter of Thy Kingdom" (All Bible quotes are from the NASB).

In fact, the ASV, KJV, NIV, and NKJV all translated it as "Your throne, O God . . .

the writer showed that "Your Throne O God" is the right translation,
but of course you jano lie and say it isn't, you are false jw, of course you would lie:

Joh_8:44 Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.

The Watchtower and 1975
written by a christian

The Watchtower Bible and Tract Society (the governing body of the Jehovah's Witnesses) has produced many false prophecies which completely undermine its claims to be God's organization. These attempts to use the Bible to predict the future on the authority of God's revelation have also exposed their incompetence in interpreting the Scriptures. The numerous contradictions in their literature only reinforce this conclusion. One clear example of all of this is their failed prediction that the end of this system of things and the dawn of a new era of peace on earth would come in 1975.

The idea was first introduced in the Watchtower book, "Life Everlasting in Freedom of the Sons of God." It explains:

"The time is fast drawing near for the reality that was foreshadowed in the Jubilee of liberty to be proclaimed throughout the earth to all mankind now oppressed by many enslaving things. In view of the earth-wide situation and the world's condition, it appears most urgent for the liberation like that of the Jubilee to come soon. Most certainly the near future would be the most appropriate time for it. God's own written Word indicates that it is the appointed time for it," (Life Everlasting in Freedom of the Sons of God, 1966, pg. 26-27).

After arguing for specific dates for creation and other key biblical events, it goes on to explain:

"According to this trustworthy Bible chronology six thousand years from man's creation will end in 1975, and the seventh period of a thousand years of human history will begin in the fall of 1975 C.E." (Life Everlasting in Freedom of the Sons of God, 1966, pg 29).

After cobbling together some verses from the Psalms to imply that God literally perceives every thousand years as a 24 hour day, the book goes on to say:

"So in not many years within our own generation we are reaching what Jehovah God could view as the seventh day of man's existence. How appropriate it would be for Jehovah God to make of this coming seventh period of a thousand years a Sabbath period of rest and release, a great Jubilee Sabbath for the proclaiming of liberty throughout the earth to all its inhabitants! This would be most timely for mankind. It would also be most fitting on God's part, for, remember, mankind has yet ahead of it what the last book of the Holy Bible speaks of as the reign of Jesus Christ over earth for a thousand years, the millennial reign of Christ. It would not be by mere chance or accident but would be according to the loving purpose of Jehovah God for the reign of Jesus Christ, the 'Lord of the Sabbath,' to run parallel with the seventh millennium of man's existence," (Life Everlasting in Freedom of the Sons of God, 1966 pp.29-30)

And then, drawing again on the Levitical year of Jubilee as a prophetic type of the dawning of the new age, it continues:

"The blessed time for its introduction is fast approaching. Shortly, within our own generation, the symbolical trumpet will be sounded by divine power, proclaiming "liberty in the land to all its inhabitants," (Life Everlasting in Freedom of the Sons of God, 1966 pp.30)

This was not the first time the Watchtower had used the law of the "year of Jubilee" to produce this kind of false prediction. They had previously used it to arrive at the date 1925, about which they wrote:

"Therefore we may confidently expect that 1925 will mark the return of Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and the faithful prophets of old, particularly those named by the Apostle in Hebrews 11, to the condition of human perfection," (Millions Now Living Will Never Die, 1918, p. 89).

The same bad approach to Scripture will continue to produce the same failed results. In the same year that "Life Everlasting in Freedom of the Sons of God" introduced the 1975 prediction, another Watchtower publication elaborated on it:

"Does God's rest day parallel the time man has been on earth since his creation? Apparently so. In what year, then, would the first 6,000 years of man's existence and also the first 6,000 years of Gods rest day come to an end? The year 1975. This is worthy of notice, particularly in view of the fact that the "last days" began in 1914, and that the physical facts of our day in fulfillment of prophecy mark this as the last generation of this wicked world. So we can expect the immediate future to be filled with thrilling events for those who rest their faith in God's promises. It means that within a relatively few years we will witness the fulfillment of the remaining prophecies that have to do with the 'time of the end'," (Awake!, Oct. 8, 1966, pp.19-20).

The idea of 1914 and the "last generation" is another biblical error that has led to multiple failed Watchtower predictions. Here it was used to reinforce yet another one. The same Awake! magazine also explained:

"It was to our generation that Jesus referred when he added the key thought: 'this generation will by no means pass away until all things occur.' (Matt. 25:34) The generation that saw the beginning of woes in 1914 would also see the end of Satan and his entire wicked system of things. Some who were alive then would still be alive when 'the end' comes. It is to be carefully noted that the youngest of those who saw with understanding the developing sign of the end of this system of things from its start in 1914 are now well over sixty years of age. In fact, the greater part of the adult generation that experienced the start of the "last days" has already passed away in death," (Awake!, Oct. 8 1966, pg. 18)

The Watchtower was not merely mistaken on one or two verses. Its interpretation of passages throughout the Bible, along with its central and defining doctrines like the matter of 1914, all pointed to 1975. The year came and went, and nothing happened. Nothing happened because the Jehovah's Witnesses are wrong. Their interpretation of Scripture, their core doctrines, their alleged identity as God's prophet and chosen organization are all plainly and demonstrably false. Let their own words indict them:

"True, there have been those in times past who predicted an 'end to the world', even announcing a specific date. Yet nothing happened. The 'end' did not come. They were guilty of false prophesying. Why? What was missing? . . . Missing from such people were God's truths and evidence that he was using and guiding them," (Awake, Oct. 8, 1968).

"Jehovah God is the Grand Identifier of his true messengers. He identifies them by making the messages he delivers through them come true. Jehovah is also the Great Exposer of false messengers. How does he expose them? He frustrates their signs and predictions. In this way he shows that they are self-appointed prognosticators, whose messages really spring from their own false reasoning – yes, their own fleshly thinking!" (Watchtower, 1997 May 1, pg. 8]

Trust in the true Word of God, not in the false teaching and fleshly thinking of these deceitful men.

The TRUTH is indisputable!
The Apostles has NOTHING to do with the teachings of the Pharisees, so there is NO record of any of their teachings in the Bible. On the other hand the Pharisees, Sadducees, Scribes and other Rabbis were going up and down trying to refute the teachings of the Christians. Act 13:50,17:5,24:5
So my brother LET THEM SAY. If they are claiming they can IDENTIFY falsehood but can't POINT, NAME or PRESENT a GROUP that's PRACTICING PURE WORSHIP, what difference is between them and the Pharisees of Jesus' day? John 8:48 compared to Matthew 12:24-27
In the same manner their ancestors who were God's enemies did to the holy ones in ancient times! 2Chronicles 36:16 compared to Matthew 10:25 & Act 7:51-53
Their ancestors gathered from different religious groups having contradicting teachings and conflicting doctrines only to condemn Jesus and His followers! So my brother, let's sing joyfully to Jehovah. Act 5:17-42

Judaea in the year 30CE.
A young man about 29-30 years started gathering followers,going from one place to another, preaching, teaching and curing all sort of illnesses. Matthew 4:24 Luke 7:17
One man from another region in that same country heard of His activities,but since this man is doing fine without any infirmities he decided to stay at home enjoying whatever people are saying about Jesus of Nazareth.
Next he heard is that all the renown religious leaders are furiously against Jesus and bitterly complaining about His activities. John 12:42
Next he heard that many of Jesus' followers have deserted Him. John 6:66
Next he heard that one of Jesus' closest confidants betrayed Him for 30 pieces of silver. Matthew 26:15
Next he heard that Jesus couldn't deliver Himself from the hands of these religious leaders who instigated the Roman government to kill Him. Mark 15:31
Next he met with one or two of Jesus' FORMER disciples that have deserted Him, and that one started saying "don't mind that impostor, He was teaching HERESY". John 6:60
Next He heard is Jesus is DEAD and His loyalists are claiming that He has been resurrected,but only their members saw Him.
Please if this person didn't take his time to WELCOME Jesus' true followers to into his home and listen to their own part of the story, how can he know the TRUTH?
Whoever has brains to reason, let him make the best use of it!
