Well accoring to Jesus the messages that they would have would not be accepted by the nations. Just as the ones that Jesus himself were telling everywhere he went which included his own people. But the preaching work he did was in a small part of the world at that time but he said that the "nations" would hate and persecute them. So that lends one to realize that it would have to be a much larger work then what was being done then.

I don't know but I don't think it's a respectful thing to use his name in some of those situations. But just my thought...

Killers hate the truth, so they killed Jesus, and ever since they've been killing His followers.

Also included would be ones of other religions that are exposed to any falsehoods that they promote just as in Jesus's day.

There's no comparison.

Get the facts. The greatest holocaust in human history has been against true believers.

If your refering to the Jews, yes they did. But Jesus was not talikng about the Jews or he would have said that about them.

I know where your going with this G75 the JW's are the persecuted ones. Other religions including Christendom are persecuting you. The Followers of Christ would and will be persecuted because of his word.
