Controversies

John 7:12 records an interesting detail from the life of our Master Yahshua. It says this: “There was a great deal of talk about him in the crowds. Some said, ‘He is a good man;’ others, ‘No, he is leading the people astray.’” Controversy surrounded our Master, and it has always surrounded those who follow Him. That was certainly the case in the first century. Acts 28:22 tells of a controversy that caused the Jews of Rome to say to the Apostle Paul, “We want to hear what your views are, for we know that people everywhere are talking against this sect.” For the sake of such fair-minded inquiries, we’ve attempted in this section to address some of the controversies that have cropped up regarding our twelve tribes.
