Acts 5:34-39 - Then one in the council stood up, a Pharisee named Gamaliel, a teacher of the law held in respect by all the people, and commanded them to put the apostles outside for a little while. And he said to them:
"Men of Israel, take heed to yourselves what you intend to do regarding these men. For some time ago Theudas rose up, claiming to be somebody. A number of men, about four hundred, joined him. He was slain, and all who obeyed him were scattered and came to nothing. After this man, Judas of Galilee rose up in the days of the census, and drew away many people after him. He also perished, and all who obeyed him were dispersed.
And now I say to you, keep away from these men and let them alone; for if this plan or this work is of men, it will come to nothing; but if it is of God, you cannot overthrow it - lest you even be found to fight against God."
[NKJV]
In The Bible, these words were spoken by Gamaliel, a Pharisee and a member of the Jewish high court, when discussing the early followers of Jesus and the spread of the gospel in Acts 5:38-39. He advised caution against opposing the followers of Jesus, stating that if their message is truly from God, it cannot be stopped and one would risk fighting against God.
Answer In Acts 5:34-39 the Pharisee Gamalielexplained that it was unwise to try to oppose the witness the Apostles were giving to Jesus because..."...if it be of God, you cannot overthrow it; in case you be found even to fight against God (v39)

BasicInstructionsBeforeLeavingEarthAlthough the person who wrote the above thought that was funny, it is no joking matter. I do not know what Bible means. I do know that it contains God's instructions, promises, accomplishments, stories, and gifts. It is a sacred holy book that was written by men who were inspired by God. It tells us how you truly get to heaven. The only way is through Jesus Christ, not through good works. This may not be the answer you were looking for, but open a Bible, read it and find out for yourself.Answer:The word Bible means "books" or "collection of books".
The gospel is seen as the "good news" of salvation and redemption through Jesus Christ for all believers. It serves as a central message of hope, love, and forgiveness that guides Christians in their faith and relationship with God.
A:Mark's Gospel, the first account to be written, simply says (Mark 15:27-28) that Jesus was crucified between two thieves, one on his left hand and one on his right hand, so that the scripture be fulfilled as Jesus was numbered among the transgressors.Luke's Gospel says that one of the malefactors mocked Jesus, while the other repented, saying to Jesus, "Lord remember me in paradise," to which Jesus said unto him, "Verily I say unto thee, To day shalt thou be with me in paradise."Matthew's Gospel says both thieves mocked Jesus - (Matthew 27:44): "They cast the same in his teeth." There is no suggestion that Jesus spoke to either of them, and no likelihood that Jesus would have promised he would be in paradise. Luke's is the theologically most important account and thus the account most Christians prefer.
Some Biblical scholars doubt the authorship of the Gospel of Matthew because there is no direct claim of authorship within the text itself, and it is believed to have been written anonymously. Additionally, the Gospel of Matthew shares a lot of material with the Gospel of Mark and a hypothetical document called Q, raising questions about its originality and authorship.

The Holy Bible is a "road map", of sorts, for Christians. Not only does the Bible teach the story of Jesus Christ, it also gives examples on how a Christian should live their daily lives. By following the Bible's examples, we can truly live in His image.
Type your answer here... Bullock? No, No, No. OMG! No. One, every song sound the same. It is something artificial about her. The caucausian sister is truly a gospel sinnger. She is what the world need. A true holy instrument to spread the gospel in song.
Truly, the Bible (and Jesus) wanted EVERYONE to preach the gospel and the truth that Jesus died for you to save you from your sins and on the third day he rose again! As illustrated in the Bible, Christ commissioned His closest followers, those twelve men that were known as His apostles, to preach the Gospel to the world. He therefore gave them His authority, to preach in His Name, as well as jurisdiction, that is, He as God bid them to preach over the whole world. This direct line of authority and jurisdiction - the apostolic lineage - was jealously guarded in the early Church, and still is today, as the apostles and their legitimate successors used their authority to commission others while denouncing those that preached Christ without a proper mandate independently of the Church.
