The Twelve Disciples of CHRIST: Where are They Now? -
02-05-2014, 01:51 PM
But I tell you of a truth, there be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the kingdom of God. - Luke 9:27
These were JESUS' words to His disciples, spoken to them on the same occasion that He gave them the power to cast out devils and heal the sick.
JESUS promised them that at least a few of those standing before Him would not die before they saw the Kingdom of GOD, that is, Heaven. Since the Second Coming of CHRIST hasn't happened yet, a reasonable Christian must therefore conclude that a few of JESUS' followers are still living today.
Because they were close friends of JESUS CHRIST, there are two further assumptions we can make: One, they are thousands of years old, and two, they are True Christians.
Given this information, I believe it is logical to conclude that the last disciples of CHRIST still living on Earth must be members of Landover Baptist Church.
I am particularly interested in Cranky Old Man and Old Man Hatchet, both of whom appear to be thousands of years old. I am also interested in Nobar King and his righteous beard.
I am calling on any members of Landover Baptist who have information regarding these surviving contemporaries of CHRIST to speak up now.
If you are one of the Twelve Disciples, come forward and make history. Please do not feel embarrassed or nervous. I promise you, there is not a True Christian alive who would not believe that there are still members of the Twelve Disciples still running around casting out devils.

Hello Bob4God.
I have read that verse many times but I was reading it wrong I thought that it meant that some of the Disciples would not eat anything that was already dead at least that made Genesis 9:3 make more sense to me it says:
Every moving thing that liveth shall be meat for you; even as the green herb have I given you all things.
When I asked the colored girl who works for me if we could eat some things that were still moving because I wanted to follow the Bible she said oh daddy they do not mean it has to be moving when you eat it I am not her father she is from the West Indies they say things differently.
If one of the Disciples is from Landover Baptist Church they might not look old like Cranky Old Man or Old Man Hatchet because God may have turned back the clock on them look at Lamentations 5:21 it says:
Turn thou us unto thee, O LORD, and we shall be turned; renew our days as of old.
If God renews their days as of old it would seem He makes them younger that would be a very nice thing to do but it would make your job more difficult because you would have to look at everyone not just the old people.
Thank you.

They say that if you can remember the BC's, you weren't really there…
But seriously, the last I heard is that FEMA has them locked away in one of their concentration camps. It has to be true, it was peer-reviewed by twitter.
Come to think of it, this is PROOF that FEMA (or Obama, or Clinton, or FDR, or Lincoln) has secret prisons. After all, if the democrats don't have have secret prisons for Christians, then WHERE ARE THE DISCIPLES? We've found the smoking gun, patriots!
Disagree? By failing to register and debate me, you prove that liberals are factless frauds who only persuade through intimidation. To prove otherwise, debate me!

We've all know since way back that Landover Baptist Church is the premier Christian church in the world, Jesus' favorite by far.
It only makes sense from scripture some of his people would be walking among us. This is exciting.
Isaiah 24:1-3 Behold, the LORD maketh the earth empty (2)...as the taker of usury, so with the giver of usury to him. (3) The land shall be utterly emptied, and utterly spoiled: for the LORD hath spoken his word.

Well, if the Bible says some of Jesus' disciples are still alive then clearly this must be true and Landover would indeed be the most logical place for one of Jesus' disciples to live.
It seems to me though that if I was one of Jesus' disciples, I would remember this. On the other hand, I usually cannot remember what I did 5 minutes ago. And thousands of years is probably a long time to remember things. Jesus could even have wiped my memory of Him in His infinite kindness to save me from the suffering of having to miss Him for each and every day for thousands of years.
All this is very confusing, I hope a Pastor can assist me with this.

To most "Christians" The Bible is like a license agreement. They just scroll to the bottom and click "I agree". All those "Christians" will burn in Hell!

Try to remember, Cranky!
Don't you remember the taste of loaves and fish split by our Savior's salty sweaty hands?
How about the sweet sound of your Master's voice when He called that woman a dog?
Do you recall Peter's cock? You must remember that!

I would have to disagree on the LBC part.
Matthew 10:16
Behold, I send you forth as sheep in the midst of wolves: be ye therefore wise as serpents, and harmless as doves.
We should find them amongst the most wolvish of sinners. Maybe we can identify them when they say something that we wouldn't expect from such groups.
PRAISE THE LORD!

This is electrifying testimony.
Here we see the work of a Christian scientist and scholar. Kudos, Brother!
God Bless!

I'm not a theologian, but I thought that meant the Disciples were to go out to the lowlives and preach. If this is correct, they could be headquartering at LBC and converting the heathens around Des Moines.
The State Capitol downtown has lots of liberals, gay bars and flat out drunks.
They have a lot of work to do, that's for sure.

Of course!
JESUS told them where to work, HE wouldn't force them to mingle.
And we know that it's a waste of time looking for Simon/Peter that one is long gone to heaven.
John 21:18
Verily, verily, I say unto thee, When thou wast young, thou girdedst thyself, and walkedst whither thou wouldest: but when thou shalt be old, thou shalt stretch forth thy hands, and another shall gird thee, and carry thee whither thou wouldest not.
John 21:22
Jesus saith unto him, If I will that he tarry till I come, what is that to thee? follow thou me.
When JESUS invites a disciple to follow him and stretch his hands to be tied it's a privilege.
PRAISE THE LORD!
