常见问题

Was this growth expected?

The rapid spread of the message and faith in Jesus might have surprised some, but it fits with earlier prophecies about many people turning to God.

What does 'obedient to the faith' mean?

It means that these priests accepted and followed the teachings about Jesus, showing they believed and acted on what they learned.

How did this growth affect the early church?

This increase in followers meant more people were learning about Jesus, which likely strengthened their community but also brought challenges like needing to organize better care for all members.

Priests held important roles in Jewish religious life, so their conversion was a big deal as they had firsthand knowledge of the Old Testament and were expected to uphold traditional beliefs.
