Christianity is not a means to financial prosperity. It the promise of a hope of eternal life, that our testimony and our salvation will not be lost.

There is a present evil age and there is the age to come. The age to come has already started and we are in the overlap of the ages.

We can see that tension now, but soon messiah will come.

Hold on Christian soldiers.

Since this came from Roman Catholic, I don't believe it. Is there any source different from theirs?

There is little to no truth to these claims, as they were instead created by those who attempted to hijack the movement created by Jesus Christ in Judah and Jerusalem for themselves. You will know this by the fact that the tales were all mostly told, not by Israelites, but by non-Israelites, the very ones Jesus Christ of Israel warned could not handle that which is the Truth of God of Israel — Holy; they are the very same ones who went on to establish the religion of Christianity — a religion created by non-Israelites aka dogs. undecided
You think the Gospel of Jesus on the new testament is centred on the Israelites shocked shocked. You forgot those who killed Jesus are not.
The whole Bible was a story, Some of it where letters and the others diary and visions. Some were thoughts of people.

How I found little truth on this!

Think of this:
Peter was crucified upside down cross in Rome and he is the First Pope. Did you know that the sign of cross by Catholics churches is cross upside-down? Check it out. Meaning they are not really worshipping God but Peter (Pope) indirectly.

Aside these disciples, another person that came close is David Livingstone who won 1.2million souls for Christ. He died due to critical illness. At the point of his death, he is still preaching the gospel of christ and desolation of slavery in Africa.

As they were crucifying and murdering them, no miracle happened to save them, they preach of those powers and perform wonders with it yet they can't save themselves with it, I no just get.

Were the Apostles then more anointed than the Pastors/Apostles of today?
There's nothing like more anointed! Based on your context the then Apostles were kingdom focused while most of today's apostles are after their stomach

First, for all those bashing today's church leaders because they are living the realities that the Lord and his apostles paved way for, you don't know the bible.

Neither Jesus nor the apostles lived miserable lives. The apostles became men of influence following the death of Christ. They shook the whole known world. They met with world leaders, preached to and converted some of them. Revered by societies and early churches. They were not by any means impoverished. Just the logistics of the things they did would require vast amount of wealth by the standards of their day. If you can't fathom that, na your head.

Secondly, and this is for anybody doubting the Lordship and Godhood of Jesus, every last one of the apostles died a terrible death instead of denying for one second that Christ rose from the dead. These were the same guys that bolted and denied him when he was arrested. They watched him die. And three days later, he walked through a wall into the room where they were huddled together in fear and doubt. After 40 days, they watched ascend into the skies. From then onwards, Omo, nothing anybody could do would make them fear as they did before. Saw them into two, boil them in oil, skin alive, they have seen something that was impossible to deny!

Nobody would endure such tragic death over a lie. JESUS IS THE RISEN KING. HAPPY EASTER.

They will never preach about this. Are they saying these experiences are inconsequential?

You want them to become political activists instead of leading people to heaven?

Christianity is actually misunderstood, otherwise we won't have so many fake pastors deceiving so many gullible people.
Both Christians, Muslims and Atheist don't know anything about Christ.

With all these kinds of untimely and unwarranted deaths, do u think Christianity has power? All the deaths described here contradict the potency and all manners of miracles narrated in the New Testament! We must all wake up Africans!

How is the sign of the cross by Catholics upside down? Do we start the sign of the cross from the chest region or head?
