Why the curiosity?... because by studying the bible I read the book of Acts (ACTS 24:5-...He (Peter) is a ringleader of the Nazarene sect,... v13-16- I (Peter) strive always to keep my conscience clear before God and man.) and find out that 2,000 years ago Jesus and the apostles were consider a sect/cult. INCREDIBLE!!!

It is amazing, to the extreme of what people can say, or do, to what they don't understand or are afraid of... We must stop and really think for one moment because our Father already said trough the bible: Hosea 4:6 - My people are destroyed from the lack of knowledge. Matthew 22:29 - You are in error because you do not know the scriptures or the power of God. If we truly want to know the truth we must look into the scriptures. If we are really curious and want to know who is our Father Ahnsahnghong we must look into scriptures (John 5:21...These are the scriptures that testify about me...)

Please my people, lets be smarter than that and lets start thinking for ourselfs, lets do research and get the facts, before we make the same mistakes as 2,000 years ago...
