That's what YOU want to believe. :yes:
What I believe is that one should not just believe something because they want to, but should study and try to find the truth. It would take days and pages to present all the scholarship and quotes of the early church fathers and etc. to even begin to "prove" these things, especially to a skeptic. I am only able to offer what I have found to be credible and true through my own findings. It is up to each individual to study and read for themselves, if they really are in search of truth. I do know that the Bible says that Jesus said that we shall know the truth and the truth shall set us free, and he that the Son sets free is free indeed. That Jesus said that he is the truth. He told the religious leaders of the day that they search the scriptures, that's Old Testament, in vain because the scriptures speak of him, but that they won't come to him whom the very scriptures speak of. I believe Jesus is the way. If someone examines the evidence and believes otherwise, that is okay by me.And once again you cite no support at all, just allege that you are well-studied. Let's pick a random apostle and look at the historical documents. How about Bartholomew?
The fact that you, a stranger, believe something, is not helpful to us. What would be helpful would be to know on what basis you believe it. What historical documents or accounts of same have caused you to believe that St. Bartholomew was martyred? Or do you just accept that because you read it in some apologetics somewhere? I think you'll find that the historical support for this assertion is weak or non-existent. Or would you prefer Matthew? Or Thomas? Or Simon? You pick. Myth and tradition are not history.
What we are here for is to have conversations about various topics, not just your particular brand of Christianity. If you have nothing to contribute to the subject of the OP, then it is better not to post. Preaching is not conversing.
That makes sense.

Depends what you believe doesent it? Depends on what you believeto be the truth. We cannot know what is the truth beacause there are so many truths.
