If the bible prophesied about the coming of Jesus, why were people calling him all sorts of names?
Remember Elijah was supossed to come back before Jesus, who was Elijah of second coming?
You mistake. If you read carefully, you will notice that the common folk were not really against him. It was the priests and even among the priests, Nicodemus and Joseph were not. Why were they calling him names? because He was calling it out as it was. Supposed 'men of god' were riding the wave on peoples backs. From the first they had hated Him because He had exposed their hypocritical pretensions. He had torn aside the cloak of rigorous rites under which their moral deformity was hidden. The pure religion that He taught had condemned their hollow professions of piety. They finally passed an edict that any man who professed faith in Jesus should be cast out of the synagogue. I thought you would mention Caiaphas and Annas as those who hated Him and called Him names. Now about direct instructions, when He sent out his disciples He expressely told them not to carry anything, not even bread. Nowadays, 'men of god' carry whole bakeries with them as it were. No sandals or staff only, they go with magari and not just magari but magari za nguvu. Money, well! Now about Elijah that will require a whole exposition and if you are willing we can have it. To tie in with Kysse contribution about Lazarus, He gave the elaborate reason why He raised up Lazarus and there is no need to second guess or to ask why. Oh, and He raised up the widows son too and Jairus daughter! And at His death, graves were opened and 'many' bodies arose. And if it is really about following Gods commands, I could mention a couple of commands believers want nothing to do with. Kysse, was there anyone with an affliction that went to Jesus or was in the vicinity of Jesus and for some reason he did not, or failed to heal them? He didnt heal them all? About prophets being accepted in his own country, there was a certain man, called Simon, which beforetime in the same city used sorcery, and bewitched the people of Samaria, giving out that himself was some great one: To whom they all gave heed, from the least to the greatest, saying, This man is the great power of God. Presidents, prime ministers, governors, wazuans, plebeians all and sundry are all in agreement that Owour has the great power of God, just like they thought of Simon Magus. lol.

And the man your hubby!  ngatho! How do you kneel before a mortal man? 'oh ye foolish kenyans,who bewitched you? People touched the hem of Jesus' garment and got healed. Dare touch this owuori's garment you will get shot.The same guy talks about repentance yet he's promoting idol worship. Oh how I miss Jesus. Is Owuor Jesus? Why then would he behave like Jesus? Do all Christians in this city of ours let strangers touch their clothes? Do you @kysse let strangers touch your clothes? Was there terrorism in the days of JC? Is Owuor's mandate same as that of JC? Owuor may or may not be what he claims but you people are too quick to pass judgement. How different are you from the people of the days of Jesus Christ? They called him a prince of demons for his miracles. They didn't like his association with fishermen and other low-life-like people. Just let the guy be. God knows better and only Him should judge in a case like this.

Let me put a twist to this by laying a foundation.
Here is some information about Saul alias Paul: From Grolier Encyclopedia 1996 The Apostle Paul, one of the most successful early Christian missionaries, is chiefly known for his letters to various churches, which are preserved in the New Testament of the Bible and had a major influence on later Christian theology. Of Jewish origin, Paul became a leading champion of Gentile CHRISTIANITY, denying the need for Christians to observe Jewish law. His Life Paul is actually an unknown character. There is no history of a man called Paul or Saul. Nobody can actually confirm who Paul was. Nobody has actually identified Paul or Saul for that matter. We don’t even know his full name. Therefore, we do not know whether Paul was an actual person or simply a fictitious character in a story like Harry Porter written by an unknown author who takes on the name Paul. For example: Harry Porter was written by J.K. Rowling. If J.K. Rowling took on the name Harry Porter, we would never have known who the author was, and we would assume that Harry Porter was an actual person writing his own story.

My bad. On the first blue, who demanded the release of the criminal in place of Jesus before Pontius washed his hands? Were those not the masses? Were the people asking John the Baptist whether JC was the one prophesied or if they were to wait for the real one? JC had His people, but they were the minority. Reason why he was cruxified without much opposition. About the second blue,i don't need a "whole exposition", just a name is all i ask. A NAME!

Hii haipatikani in the secondary car market, (was released 2012/2013) you order direct from Landrover dealers ikiwa mbichi ...it will still be a hot car in 2020 when the slightly less rich guys are able to lay their hands on one. Can you now imagine the kind of coin this guy has forked to roll all over town in one?
