What did jesus do……………?
Please, don´t listen to this bunch of ignorants, they just know about booze… When Jesus came, he came with mission of preaching a new whole way of life and to prove he was saying the truth he died in the cross, an empty cross means the resurection of Jesus and the Cross with Jesus on it means the suffering and bravery of Jesus for changing our life. He came back in 2 ways, apearing to all of his apostols, one by one and all of them worte and confiorm this and he told that he will come back in the number of millions and form 13 Christians had evolved to 2.3 billions.
