They musta had the same problem back then, believing THIS is the guy, as they would today. Every time somebody shows up today, they get followers, but the masses conclude its a cult, or so and so is a fraud.
Imagine Jesus picked today to come? Instead of uneducated people writing stories, wed have it on social media, and videos of Jesus walking around. And probably videos of his crucifixtion. is it that God chose a different time period, or is it that back then, it was easier to push a story through, cause there was no way to verfiy it.
When I watch Joel Osteen, the one thing I cant get out of my mind is that hes worth 100's of millions.
David Koresh had a compound and he managed to convince some, so have many. Harold Camping predicted the world would end, incorrectly, twice, not once, but twice, and STILL had believers for the second one. They sold their homes and cars and all belongings to prepare for doomsday.
What evidence do we have that Jesus was any different than these people? We were told these stories when we were young, the same way our folks were. Nobody is doing anything wrong, they are just following tradition.
If somebody was filmed on the news saying they were the second coming, wed expect a shrink to look at them.
it must be because its so long ago, we dont even think in practical terms, it's all blind faith .
