Oluvan: @Techwriter,u sound like a carnal man,one dat do not have proper understandin of d scripture,if a Holiness Church is nt conducive 4 a new convert where else can he be fed-prosperity and mordern day church?...
Oluvan, notice I didnt mention my church unlike 98% of the people speaking here. It takes maturity to understand the unity of the body of Christ. Paul identified those that were denominational in their thinking as being carnal and babies, so you better understand the meaning of carnality. I've been privilieged to belong to what you call holiness preaching churches and I can tell you that rules and regulation is not "holiness" many things go on, especially suspicion, gossip etc. I am not an advocate of ostentation and materialistic display of opulence under the cloak of faith, i believe we should be moderate in all things but the modern day churches as you call them has reached more people and changed more lives. Many will be shocked on the last day to hear Jesus' judgement.

These days its very difficult to recommend a church most especially a young convert. There are so many gymnatics happening in church now.

A church where the convert can be groomed in the word. Probably Deeper life come handy in this.

Any first one he visited. Then, he should read his bible, follow his conscience and observe the golden rule.

Go to any bible believing church, where you will be grounded and grow in faith. A new convert is like a baby that needs to grow up to adulthood/maturity.

God bless you for your sincerity.

The church that says the our Lord's prayer everyday. How main churches say the our Lord's prayer that Christ thought us in the bible, the Catholic church saya the our Lord's pray. For those who dont know, the Catholic church does not worship our Mother Mary but honour her as the Mother of the Saviour of the word JESUS CHRIST. The Hail Mary the Catholics say is in the bible.Angel Gabriel said it to her so why cannt we say same to her.
Re: Which Church Will You Advice A New Convert To Attend ? by Nobody: 12:59am On Sep 10, 2012
you cant just pick churches any how because of false doctrines and false teachers and decietful men. therefore, pray and let the Holy Spirit do the confirmation. And pick a church where you can grow actively spiritually with sound doctrine. I know of RCCG but there are others too.

Please don't misunderstand me, I writing here with all love and humility. I have not come to criticize but to correct that the name of God will be glorified. I will like you to find out the difference btw worship and honour. When someone kneels before another praying for assistance with all adulation, please what is it called. Now hail mary yes. Gabriel said hail mary but he didn't command that such routine be carried out and if we look into the scripture. There no where that Gabriel asked mary to pray for us sinners from now till the end of our life. That is a prayer of entanglement, a prayer of someone who is not willing to repent, a prayer of someone who wishes to continue in sin till he dies. The bible says we should forsake our wicked ways. God didn't confer a mediator on Mary but on Jesus which means Jehovah our Salvation.This is my beloved son, hear ye him. Jesus now said, Come unto me all ye that labour and are heavy laddened and I will give you rest. Jesus didn't say come unto me thru my mother or some angels even some dead saints. Come let us reason together that's what the bible says. Ask my father anything in my name (JESUS) and he shall do it.john 14:13-14. Then John 16:23-27. We are commanded to pray thru Jesus Christ that was Jesus said I am the way the truth and the life, no one comes to the father but by me. God says his glory will he not share with anyone and creature can not be greater than the creator. Take away sentiments and go thru ur scripture and understand God's perfect way for man. I will also like to ask u to read Exodus 20:4-6. Please read 4 and 5 thoroughly and take time to meditate on them. I pray that the blessings of GOD be enriched in your life in Jesus name! GOD bless.

Guy relax ur mind.
Peter never prayed with the Rosary,he never prayed to dead or living saints,never bowed down to image of 'mary' or any other graven image.He never instructed us to ask mary to forgive us our sins or to help us tell Jesus to in turn tell God to forgive us our sins!He never baptized any infant.He never sprinkled water on any one and called it baptism -i.e baptizo meaning putting something inside water .He never burnt candle and incense during worship and instructed the church to do so.Was any of the churches then called a Roman Catholic church ?He never advised us to follow the traditions of men but of God. Where did you guys get all these that made you consider Peter to be the foundation of ur ROMAN catholic church ?People dnt convert to Roman Catholicism except wen dey are forced to do so wen they are getting married to a catholic partner or dey are born into such families.No hating words please.One they God will show us all the way to go.

Mary played the mother to son role.Which even an un believing mother would have done and the son would have listened becos mother is mother! If Jesus said come unto me all ye that labor and heavy laden i wil give you rest,so why go to other means always wen i have a short cut -Jesus.Nothing wrong in asking some one pray with me or for me but not always unless i see myself as not having any relationship at all with my lord.Do i bow to Judges in worship or spiritually ?If i bow to judges spiritually,then i worship him.But bowing to an image u call mary durring worship is actually worshiping mary.I know for sure the Mary mother of Jesus is not happy becos you guys worship her either knowingly or unknowingly.When you call the Judges lord does not mean they are ur spiritual lord and over the lord JeSUS.After all Sara callas Abraham lord but not spiritual lord ! The yoruba's prostrate to elders and so on but not in worship but greetings and that's all.So my friend,i am not saying any denomination is the best but let's not go contrary to d word of God knowingly or knowingly. Surprisingly most ROMAN catholics do this things unknowingly but those at the top know too well.We pray for his grace and some day God will bring you out from that entrapment as HE has done for many.Let's set the foundation straight first and start a solid building.You dnt build on a faulty foundation.No hatings but just to bring to ur knowledge that which is right !

EPOMA:
Roman catholic is not the holy catholic church mentioned in the bible and that is why the Romans had to differentiate it by adding the the roman
Mind you, I never mentioned Roman Catholic. You guys should continue bringing out your ignorance. You are just assuming that I meant the catholic church. Assumption in itself is a grievious sin. Finally, you know the truth. And the truth shall set you free.

My dear, i don't indulge in arguement too. i am not a protestant, i simply practice christianity according to bible standard. if we check the book of ezekiel, it says if a guard hears a sound of war or danger and refuses to warn the people, that the blood of the people will be required from the guard's hand. ezekiel 33:4. you can read more if you wish. roms 2 says oh man u r without excuse. I am bringing a word of condemnation but of edification that the church will presented to Jesus will neither have spots nor wrinkle. let me address the case of cana in galilee. Remember what did mary tell the disciples. Mary bluntly told the disciples to do whatever Jesus asked them to do. Jesus now commanded to fill the jar with with water and the disciples obeyed. take note "obeyed". This same Jesus has asked us come to him directly that he is final high priest and our mediator. God frowns at any other mediator if not Jesus who happens to be God himself Rev 1:7-8 and 11. At the upper room, Mary the mother of Jesus was also there praying to God in the name of the Jesus. Mary obeyed Jesus, why won't we obey him knowing that Jesus Christ is LORD GOD ALMIGHTY.All I will ask you to do is pray ernestly that God should teach u more. Then Study the scripture and believe the scripture. Call a spade a spade while reading. GOD bless.

Jesus is the Word made flesh. He is God the Son. If this is true then Mary is the mother of God. The womb that carried God cannot be stained, therefore Mary is special. She must have been concieved sinless herself. And so the few scriptures that refered to her must be magnified to suit the new office created for her by religious men. The office is that of the queen mother. What better way to curry the kings favour than through his mum. He will never refuse her anything. And so the catholic story goes...

Mary was the mother of Jesus-the Christ of course HE JESUS HAS TO BE BORN BY A WOMAN,just one woman and not two and Mary was the fortunate woman according to the plan.
Our case now is like the one who received an envelop,and is expected to take the letter in the envelop and digest it's content leaving the envelop cos it's just a means of carriage.But the reverse is the case as the ROMAN catholics received an envelop -(Mary),cared less of it's content-(Jesus).See Mathew 12 :46-50.I know for sure The beloved Mary mother of Jesus won't be happy that the praises and worship that could have been given in whole to her son is been shared 50-50 or some times all to her as against the messiah due to ignorance of the world.See the book of luke 17:27-28 how Jesus rebuked the woman who tried to praise human as against the WORD-Jesus. The bible said all have sinned.mary also was a sinner who only found favor in the sight of God.I love Mary but she will never want us to worship her or honour her in that manner.Jesus said,what so ever ye ask in my name....no in the name of HIS mother.May the soul of Mary rest in peace.We love her.
