Jesus And his apostles traveled without purse or scrip, except for
Judas Iscariot, who did not have faith to follow that instruction from
Jesus.  As I understand it, you are upset that disciples of Christ
shared their food and clothing with him.
====================================
"his apostles traveled without purse or scrip" so they had nothing to share 
with him.
Ah. Got it now. Magic food and clothes. Bwahahahaha.
====================================

prophecy of John the Baptist,
===============================
As I understand it, John the Baptist lived concurrently with your Jesus 
character.
Not much of a prophesy there.
"Son, you're gonna make it big time." from a talent scout, isn't a prophesy.

===========================================
Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make his paths straight.
=======================================
