New Testament

Psalm 2 The One enthroned in heaven laughs

Psalm 2 ,  
(1)  Why do the nations conspire and the peoples plot in vain? 
 (2)   The kings of the earth rise up and the rulers band together against the LORD and against his anointed, saying,
(3)  “Let us break their chains and throw off their shackles.”
(4) The One enthroned in heaven laughs; the Lord scoffs at them.
(5)  He rebukes them in his anger and terrifies them in his wrath, saying,
(6)  “I have installed my king on Zion, my holy mountain.”

Is The Original New Testament Lost? :: A Dialogue

Dating the new testament to Augustus

In those days a decree went out from Emperor Augustus that all the world should be registered. This was the first registration and was taken while Quirinius was governor of Syria. All went to their own towns to be registered. Joseph also went from the town of Nazareth in Galilee to Judea, to the city of David called Bethlehem, because he was descended from the house and family of David. He went to be registered with Mary, to whom he was engaged and who was expecting a child. (Luke 2:1–7NRSV)

Nero, Acts 25

Nero. the 5th emperor of Rome, and ruled A.D. 54-68 Although he is not mentioned by name in the Bible, he did reign during the events of the Apostles that are chronicled in the Book of Acts.
Acts 25
8 Then Paul made his defense: “I have done nothing wrong against the Jewish law or against the temple or against Caesar.”
9 Festus, wishing to do the Jews a favor, said to Paul, “Are you willing to go up to Jerusalem and stand trial before me there on these charges?”

Luke 12 Not Peace but Division

Could this be an indication that Christ is at the start of the Jewish conflict, he foretell's how things will be and have been until today? 

49 “I have come to bring fire on the earth, and how I wish it were already kindled!

50 But I have a baptism to undergo, and what constraint I am under until it is completed!

Who do you say I am , Mark 8: 22-30

Mark 8
22 And he cometh to Bethsaida; and they bring a blind man unto him, and besought him to touch him.
23 And he took the blind man by the hand, and led him out of the town; and when he had spit on his eyes, and put his hands upon him, he asked him if he saw ought.
24 And he looked up, and said, I see men as trees, walking.
25 After that he put his hands again upon his eyes, and made him look up: and he was restored, and saw every man clearly.
26 And he sent him away to his house, saying, Neither go into the town, nor tell it to any in the town.

Mammon

Luke 16:13 "No servant can serve two masters. Either he will hate the one and love the other, or he will be devoted to the one and despise the other. You cannot serve both God and Money."

matthew 6-24 No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon.

Enter through the narrow gate

Matthew 7:13-14

New International Version (NIV)
The Narrow and Wide Gates

13 “Enter through the narrow gate. For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it. 14 But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only a few find it.

Eph. 5:6-13:

Eph. 5:6-13:
6 Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of these things
the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience. 7 Therefore do
not be partakers with them; 8 for you were formerly darkness, but now you
are Light in the Lord; walk as children of Light 9 (for the fruit of the Light
consists in all goodness and righteousness and truth), 10 trying to learn
what is pleasing to the Lord. 11 Do not participate in the unfruitful deeds

Matthew 21:42 the kingdom of God will be taken away from you and given to a people who will produce its fruit.

 42 Jesus said to them, “Have you never read in the Scriptures:
   “‘The stone the builders rejected has become the cornerstone;
the Lord has done this, and it is marvelous in our eyes’
43 “Therefore I tell you that the kingdom of God will be taken away from you and given to a people who will produce its fruit.
44 Anyone who falls on this stone will be broken to pieces; anyone on whom it falls will be crushed.”[i]
