Quote:B. Only some of the early followers of John the Baptist didnt follow Jesus.Prove any of them did follow Jesus. Good luck.
Quote:Your theory assumes that John the Baptist told them Jesus was not the Messiah and they were obeying him.No. My "theory" comes from reading history. That's what the followers of John the Baptist believed. That's why they were followers of John the Baptist.
Quote:C. Huge numbers of Johns' early followers DID then become followers of Jesus.Prove it. Good luck.
Quote:D. John the Baptist, (the Old Testament Jew) was preaching repentance and baptism for a very specific reason.That's what the Bible says he said, all right.
Prepare ye the way of the Lord. Make straight paths. If not Jesus then WHO????
