Jesus repeatedly challenged people both directly in conversation with those whom He encountered and indirectly through His life and teaching.

One example is when He healed the man with the withered hand in the synagogue on the Sabbath. The synagogue ruler was angry about this and Jesus pointed out that the same man would not hesitate to get an animal out of a ditch on the Sabbath, thus exposing his hypocrisy and wrong priorities.

Why did these Jewish leaders not want the apostle teaching in Jesus name?

The Jewish leaders did not like Jesus. He taught and preached the true word of God. Many of the people were beginning to believe in Him and turning away from the Jewish leaders teachings. So they crucified Jesus and thought they had got rid of the problem. They could now go on teaching in their perverted ways. But what happens? Here the apostles of Jesus start teaching the ways of Jesus and even healed a few persons. This upset the Jewish leaders. They thought they had got rid of the problem and now it was manifesting itself again. The leaders told the apostles to stop teaching in Jesus' name. This is all they could do because the true cause, "the way" was so popular killing the apostles would be a big mistake. The apostles did not stop preaching, and this is a good lesson to whether we should obey man or God, when it come to the important things of God.

What are the reasons behind the thought that Jesus will return?

AnswerThere are references to a second coming of Jesus in the New Testament, for example in Mark chapter 13. Some believe they see inferences of a second coming of Jesus even in the Old Testament. Much of Christian theology seems to parallel Zoroastrian theology, and in some ways Jesus parallels the Saoshyant of that faith. The Zoroastrian faith holds that the Saoshyant will return to fight evil and initiate the Last Judgement. Arguably, the Zoroastrian thinking could be behind the thought that Jesus will return.
