no jesus was framed when the policticians wanted all the ppl to worship ceaser as god...Originally posted by Raptured:The tax collectors were collecting more taxes than they were supposed to collect by abusing their authority given by Rome. If you dont pay, they haul you to court then you are in big trouble with govt. So they grew very rich from these ill gotten gains on top of their commissions. Why despise gamblers? These blood suckers were more despicable. Just like loan sharks.
Jesus said it bcos He was being tested by politicians trying to trap Him into saying He disobeyed Roman laws & was against the Roman Emperor by revolting. So you are right He was being framed bcos they wanted to get rid of Him.
and jesus refuses to bow down..hehe.. -
sorry, I should have use a less common name like Bob....Originally posted by Repented John 2:I am not Raptured. Mistaken identity.
actually on the way home, just now, i thought about it again and regretted using "john", again sorry, not meant as an insult to you. -
Originally posted by Raptured:How do you know? Am i John the Baptist repented? Am i not? I dont know. You keep guessing lah. no problem... actually someone had asked me if you are JTB, my answer to that question is, probably not...... but a clone nonetheless.
Realistically speaking, who you are is not important, what you do with your problems is of a greater concern.... -
isnt that obvious enough? NO
but of course u can go to the casino to eat buffet , enjoy shows , jalan-jalan but not gambling. -
It's ok CE. John is a very common name also in Jesus' time. Jehohanan in Jewish language. I forgot the translation. Very common name in the streets. That's why a fisherman son called John the son of Zebedee. An ah beng.Originally posted by Chin Eng:sorry, I should have use a less common name like Bob....

But maybe not so common in the priestly family of Zechariah. That's why his relatives(prob well to do) refused to name his son John until the angel loosed his tongue & Zechariah spoke giving the prophecy abt his son's name & destiny to prepare the way of the Lord. -
Jesus wasnt a political rebel. He obeyed the law of that time. He even paid taxes. He obeyed the temple laws also. He was a law abiding citizen. He was framed in the sense that they accused Him of being a rebel & attempting to create unrest & political insurrection so that they can crucify Him. Bloody murderers!Originally posted by contact:no jesus was framed when the policticians wanted all the ppl to worship ceaser as god...

Hah is it? Who hah? I am not JTB resurrected or repented leh.Originally posted by Chin Eng: no problem... actually someone had asked me if you are JTB, my answer to that question is, probably not...... but a clone nonetheless.

I am important to God. But i was wondering why God give me all the mess in my life. Maybe i messed it up & tried to blame God?

How is that obvious? JTB speaks out against sin with fire & brimstone & hell fire. I am a great sinner judging from my gambling with toto & masturbation. Yea, i will go casino. Maybe i will be gambling king? Just joking.Originally posted by brown_obsession:isnt that obvious enough? NO

I think the messiah wannabes started only after the death & resurrection of Jesus. They were copycats. Am i correct? Can anyone pls check & confirm?Originally posted by Icemoon:bo bian .. there were just too many messiah wannabes at that time.
Matthew 24:4-5:
4 Then Jesus replied to them: "Watch out that no one deceives you. 5 For many will come in My name, saying, 'I am the Messiah,' and they will deceive many. -
