How all of Jesus Disciples Died

The sacrifice of these men is what established Christianity as the biggest religion in the world. Not only that but its true! Praise the Lord.

[@JacobLee-hd8nk]

This shows how following Jesus won't be easy, and will never be. Be strong in your faith, and if you ever doubt or get mocked for your faith, remember Jesus's disciples, and how they died for him.

[@kombokoroma8533]

Jesus really died for us because He Loves Us, And rose Again From the dead❤❤❤❤😊😊

[@Axlightx]

[@Lookablujay]

​@@Axlightx This is a popular mentality in religious cultist beliefs. Die for your faith, defeat the enemy. The enemy of God is Lucifer and his Lords, those who are not with God either need to be converted or are an enemy of thine God. Point being, all cults say "faith is not easy, let your faith remain unshaken in our monastery beliefs. " Meanwhile, there was nothing there to begin with. Yet, this ideal has spread far and wide. Many people use this same formula today in kidnapping and cultist enslavement. Christians do it too, in the form of conversion camps, mission trips, charity which goes to further the agenda. In the end of the day, people do TRULY believe in this, and anything anyone says is a "test of faith." So this entire comment will more than likely fall on deaf ears, because just like everyone else, I do hope there is something in the afterlife. Just not everlasting pious service. "For what have we to give once coin and toil has been expended? Lest we are buried in tossed soil to be lamented." One day, all of our eyes will close, and when they open, I hope to see all of you. I wish to understand just as you all do. How optimistic it is however to believe that perhaps our eyes will open again?

John was boiled in oil but somehow Survived and was banished to patmos. It is said that Roman emperor Domitian commanded that the apostle John be boiled to death in oil, but John only continued to preach from within the pot. Another time, John was forced to drink poison, but, as promised in Mark 16:18, it did not hurt him. Thus John, the head of the church in Ephesus at the time, was banished to Patmos in A.D. 97.
