Subject: Politics source? |
Bible Note: Greetings SRN! There aren't many recorded instances of the Jews stoning people during the Roman rule. There are a few, like Stephen in Acts. By Roman law though, it was illeagle for them to execute anyone. They might have been able to get away with it every now and then with people of little importance. However, stoning Jesus would have been too public. Now concerning Jesus, as a "public figure", one may loosely consider Jesus a political figure. However, there is no record of Him being involved in or starting any political movement. In your previous post, you said that you had sources for your position. Would you mind sharing them so that we can better evalute your statements? Your Brother in Christ, Tim Moran |
