Stop taking words out of the Bible to suit your man-made theory and accept the facts please.
Oh, I am sorry! You should have told me not to quote anything that might hurt your ears.
Acts 7 — Stephen is stoned to death in the Temple, by the Jews, with Saul witnessing.
I don’t believe that stoning ever happened. No one could stone someone in Israel if not condemned by the Sanhedrin. If you read the text without church blinders, the man was stoned after he delivered a heretic sermon. Therefore, he could not be stoned for those words. He had to return to the Sanhedrin to be judged. And once judged and condemned, there was no more chance to speak or explain his position. So, it never happend. That’s the same fabricated accusation made by the writers of the NT
also with regards to Jesus: That the Jews killed both: Jesus and Stephen. I know an antisemitic act when I see one.
Stephen did not have to be judged, Peter and another apostle (I believe it was James) were already judged by the official high priests. They were also put in prision but escaped. This must have made the Jewish officals very upset because not only did their captives escape by an angel send by God, but they heard the same
Christian preaching from ANOTHER apostle. This was enough to make the Jews angry enough to kill Stephen without a trial in order to send a message for anybody else deciding to spread Christianity.
Acts 8 — “A great persecution arose against the church which was at Jerusalem.” Paher even admits that Paul, in Acts 8, was “aggressively persecuting”
Christians. (P. 3). The text says the persecution was so severe that the only Christians left in Jerusalem were the apostles. This means that literally thousands upon thousands of Christians were forced to flee the city due to persecution. This was at the very time that Paher insists good relations prevailed between the church and the synagogue.
There was a policy among the Romans to arrest the heads of any movement, so that the followers would disperse. Here, you are telling me something the opposite. Persecution of the followers and leaving the heads of the movement in peace. This story is not well told. There were no Christians yet. Those were members of the Sect of the Nazarenes. Christians started quite later with Paul in Antioch. (Acts 11:26) Now, where was Paul persecuting the Nazarenes? Oh, I remember; he went to Jerusalem for letters from the Priests to arrest Nazarenes in Damascus. Two reasons why this is a lie. First contradiction: Even in the Land of Israel, the Jews had lost legal power to condemn one to death. How could Israel send an envoy to arrest citizens of another country, which was Syria? Makes no sense. Now, for the second contradiction: Paul goes to Jerusalem for authorization to arrest Nazarenes in Damascus, when the headquarters of the Nazarenes was in Jerusalem. Why not start with Jerusalem? How do you explain that?
No, I am not saying anything thats contrary, look at closely what you said. You said there were no Christians yet, well if that was a
factthat yes, I would be contradicting myself. But considering that you`re not following any history facts your theory holds no water whatsoever.
Even the vast majority of Jews blame Jesus Christ for the Catholic Church.
Acts 13:42-51 — **The Jewish persecution of Paul **and his ministry was so acute that Paul shook the dust from his feet. This was a sign of assigning them to judgment.
That’s an interesting episode about Paul. He used to preach mostly in the synagogues of the Jews, although claiming that he was an apostle of the Gentiles. In Acts 13 he had been so much opposed by the Jews that he shook the dust from his feet and said, “we now turn to the Gentiles.” Do you know where he went to after he shook the dust of his feet and left? To the synagogue of Iconium. (Acts 14:1) Wasn’t the man something? He loved to say that he was the apostle for the Gentiles and never left the Jews in peace, as if Gentiles were to be found in the synagogues of the Jews. What credibility such a man could have?
Acts 18 — We have already seen the Jewish nature and instigation of this persecution.
You have, haven’t you? So have I of the Christian nature to persecute the Jews throughout History. If I start to tell you here about Christian Crusades, Christian Inquisition and Christian blood libels, I’ll be typing this for days.
True Christian don`t persecute others for their own pleasure, ture Christians are: Saint Peter, Sain John, Saint Stephen, and Saint Paul
You are so intoxicated with Jewish hatred that you don’t even know how to study your own NT. That persecution started in Rome against the Jews, who were expelled from Rome, as a result of an edict signed by the Emperor Claudius ordering all Jews to leave Rome. (Acts 18:2) The fire of those persecutions followed them to Israel and throughout Asia Minor. That’s why many went to Antioch, as the Nazarene Synagogue grew out of proportions. (Acts 11:19-26)
I`m waiting for a reply
