haqihana, Christianity is not some sort of "extension' as you put it. You say you want to be fair so why do you make it seem like only the few elite Jews in power were the ones who plotted Jesus death. Why do so many prefer to forget that it was the entire nation that refused him. Go beyond that, it was the entire world.

If the Jewish people really wanted Jesus then on the day of Pentecost the entire city had their chance to turn their hearts over to Him. Did they...well did they? I read that there were twelve apostles, all of whom were filled with the Holy Spirit. They had manifestations of the gifts, they had been witnesses of the resurrection and had great boldness to preach. So why were so few saved if it was just the leadership that wanted Jesus out of the way?

You say all of christianity is not a Roman religion but that is going only half. I will tell you the truth...None of Christianity is of a Roman religion.

Sop trying to discourage the men you hate and trying to please those your trying to win over. Just preach the gospel in truth and simplicity and you will not work yourself into a rut.

Don't be so hostile against me because I am not your enemy.

Chris
