Discussion on the Christ Jesus.

Yes Christianity multiplied: the fact that it reached the Philippines! (LOL) Let me just make it clear dude that what I stated (i.e., "christianity multiplied") did not refer to Jews only, what I want to convey is that Christianity itself multiplied, irregardless of whether there are Jews in it or none, am I clear? Otherwise, again, Christianity could not have reached our place. What is it to me if Christianity does not share a "big chunk" of religion in Israel now?

you misunderstood my point. Are we not discussing within realms of jewish people? then again, it did multiply through the help catholicism and during that period of time, what was the motive, convert or die. My guess (because I dont know more about israel), they gave it to romans to pursue riches. Again, my stand is that if you can find a large census that Israeli people believe in christianity then, I will agree on your views. If not, my point remains... generalizing.

...then you should also understand my point, bro.

Do take note that Christianity, yes, it started with a bunch of rugged, uneducated (they were fishermen, and I used this term not to demean the Apostles but to recall what the Pharisees branded them in the book of Acts) Galilean Jews proclaiming Jesus Christ to their kinsmen, but God's providence made them to spread out beyond Jerusalem, beyond the Jewish nation, paving the advancement of Christianity into far-flung places. And Catholicism that time did not yet exist (if you are referring to the Roman Catholicism Religion). Nevermind about your guess, because that's not what I'm after.

And about your posted census, my view also remains: there's nothing to argue about it. All I can say is, I couldn't agree more!

The bible tells us that Jesus is a descendant of Abraham through Joseph. But Joseph is just the foster father of Jesus.
Mary was conceived by the power of the Holy Spirit.
Review your bible bro. Ayaw pataka diri. Heretic.

the same with you, read your bible alone not other books.

Peace!

I have difficulty getting your english sir rcurman... would you mind rephrasing it?

To be honest sir, Bible is based on salvation not all you can find in one book... there are tons of books that a person can read and it is not prohibited to read too. Our mind is equipped to learn so many things - I haven't heard of such a news that a brain is overloaded with so much information. Di ba, the bible also says... "seek and you shall find..."? Metaphorically speaking, that's the best advice so far for a person to learn more. God bless sir.

What if Jesus the Christ didn't die on the cross? So if he didn't die on the cross, there would be no need for him to resurrect, right? What would the Church do?

Just my hypothesis...if Jesus died by the bullet, Christianity would have been symbolized by a gun...don't you think?

let me give you a biblical view bro.
Christians of the bible didn't make any symbolism about His death, its only the Roman Catholic.
They even claim everything that the Nail being used for His crucification is with them,even the cloth used to wrap His dead body, and also the wood. so what if they still not contended they can claim everything but proving is another thing.

Read first the bible before associating it with human doctrine or doctrine that is not biblical.

Peace!
