Answer 2

People talk about the religion because they are ingorant. They just dont know. I have been studying the bible for some time and i have came to the conclusion that this is the true religion also. Everything is supported by the bible. This is the only religion that is united in true worship. I just came back from a convention today and it seems like every different race of people were there and everyone had the same bond and the same goal in mind and that is to serve Jehovah. I planned to get baptized soon and this is going to be the most happiest day of my life.

Answer 4

Hey, make that 14 or 15.

oops, I did not put Barnabas in earlier.

Ac 14:13 Then the priest of Jupiter, which was before their city, brought oxen and garlands unto the gates, and would have done sacrifice with the people. Ac 14:14 Which when the apostles, Barnabas and Paul, heard of, they rent their clothes, and ran in among the people, crying out,

Answer 5

Heb 3:1, lists Jesus as an apostle,

Acts lists Paul and Barnabas (Acts 14:14)

Answer 6

I suspect that your book lists Paul as an apostle. He is often referred to as one, but was not one of the original 12. In fact, he never even knew Jesus personally (other than in a religious sense, of course).

Answer 7

After Judas' demise the apostles acquired Mathias as a replacement.

Answer 8

Acts 1:15-26
15 And in those days Peter stood up in the midst of the disciples F3 (altogether the number of names was about a hundred and twenty), and said, 16 "Men and brethren, this Scripture had to be fulfilled, which the Holy Spirit spoke before by the mouth of David concerning Judas, who became a guide to those who arrested Jesus; 17 for he was numbered with us and obtained a part in this ministry." 18 (Now this man purchased a field with the wages of iniquity; and falling headlong, he burst open in the middle and all his entrails gushed out. 19 And it became known to all those dwelling in Jerusalem; so that field is called in their own language, Akel Dama, that is, Field of Blood.) 20 "For it is written in the book of Psalms: 'Let his dwelling place be desolate, And let no one live in it'; F4 and, 'Let F5 another take his office.' F6 21 "Therefore, of these men who have accompanied us all the time that the Lord Jesus went in and out among us, 22 beginning from the baptism of John to that day when He was taken up from us, one of these must become a witness with us of His resurrection." 23 And they proposed two: Joseph called Barsabas, who was surnamed Justus, and Matthias. 24 And they prayed and said, "You, O Lord, who know the hearts of all, show which of these two You have chosen 25 to take part in this ministry and apostleship from which Judas by transgression fell, that he might go to his own place." 26 And they cast their lots, and the lot fell on Matthias. And he was numbered with the eleven apostles.

Matthias replaced Judas.
