Part 2 of 4 You referred to the scripture before Jesus was taking up into glory. The Jews were looking for Jesus to come and fight and destroy all of their enemies. They were not looking for him to be as merciful, humble, and forgiving as he was. Jesus during this time came to seek and to save that which was lost. This was his main focus during his time here. In Matthew 1 21 And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt call his name JESUS for he shall save his people from their sins. Who made people in the beginning? The answer is God did. In Revelation Jesus Christ, who is God manifested in the flesh, states that he is Alpha and Omega the beginning and the Last. The scripture you are quoting when it talks about the just men, it is referring to the redeemed of the Lord. It is talking about those who have put on the name of Jesus Christ through Acts 2 38.
