This special retardation is called 'the knowledge of God', something the world's smart ones (like yourself) can't see, as our Lord himself said, these things have been hidden from the prudent and the wise, and as Paul said, God has chosen the foolishness of preaching to save us, and again that God has chosen the foolish things of this world to confound and bring to naught the wisdom of this world. We are most definitely a cult - we are the Jesus cult, a bona fide Bible cult. And if the whole religious world were set against
John 3:16, we'd be preaching
John 3:16 so hard you'd be on here complaining about retarded
John 3:16 cultists.
Acts 2:38 says what it says. What shall a person do? They are to repent, and be baptised in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and they shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost - for the promise is unto as many as the Lord OUR God shall call.
Is he calling you? Have you heeded his call? If you were alive in the first century, would you have heeded the preaching and teaching of the apostles?
"I trow not." Why? Because you won't heed it now. If you won't heed the writings of the apostles and prophets of God, you wouldn't heed the message even if one were to come back from the dead...
