OK FIRST OFF I AM QUITE AWARE THAT I HAVE BEEN ACCUSED OF BRINGING IN DIFFERENT DOCTRINE BUT >>>
MARK 1 VS 22 And they were astonished at his doctrine: for he taught them as one that had authority, and not as the scribes

MARK 1 VS 27 And they were all amazed, insomuch that they questioned among themselves, saying, What thing is this? what new doctrine is this? SO BASICALLY THESE WERE QUESTIONS ASKED OF THE MASSES WHEN CHRIST CAME WITH HIS DOCTRINE. SO IT IS SAFE TO SAY THAT FOR YOU TO HAVE THE DOCTRINE OF CHRIST, YOU SHOULD BE GETTING THIS KIND OF RESPONSES FROM THE PEOPLE. IF PEOPLE DONT LOOK AT YOUR DOCTRINE IN ASTONISHMENT, THEN YOU MAY JUST BE PREACHING THE DOCTRINE OF DEMONS WHICH WOULD NOT BE AN ASTONISHMENT BECAUSE THE WHOLE WORLD LIETH IN WICKEDNESS.

I DIGRESS. SO WHAT IF I TOLD YOU THAT FASTING HAS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO DO WITH ABSTINENCE FROM FOOD AND THAT CHRIST DID NOT GO 40 DAYS WITHOUT EATING ? WHAT IF YOU FOUND OUT THAT YOUR IDEA OF WHAT FASTING IS IS A DOCTRINE OF DEMONS STARTED BY THE PHARISEES ?. OK LETS GET INTO IT
MARK 2 VS 18 and they come and say unto him, Why do the disciples of John and of the Pharisees fast, but thy disciples fast not? SO THEY COME ASKING HIM HOW COME HE AND HIS DISCIPLES DONT FAST ?

MARK 2 VS 19 And Jesus said unto them, Can the children of the bridechamber fast, while the bridegroom is with them? as long as they have the bridegroom with them, they cannot fast. << SO BASICALLY HE IS SAYING THAT HE IS THEIR PURPOSE AND SO LONG AS HE IS THEIR THEY HAVE A JOB TO DO. THE CHILDREN OF THE BRIDE-CHAMBER HAVE A PURPOSE TO THE BRIDEGROOM TO ENSURE THAT HE IS COMFORTABLE AND ENSURE HIS WEDDING GOES SMOOTH WITH NO HITCH

MARK 2 VS 20 But the days will come, when the bridegroom shall be taken away from them, and then shall they fast in those days. THE DAY HE WILL BE TAKEN FROM THEM WHICH WOULD BE THE PERIOD BETWEEN HIS DEPARTURE AND THE SECOND COMING. IN THAT PERIOD THEIR PURPOSE WOULD BE BE GONE, WHICH THEIR PURPOSE IS SERVING GOD.

SO BASICALLY FOR A TERRESTRIAL BEING PRONE TO SIN, FASTING IS BEING AWAY FROM YOUR SOURCE OF LIGHT. FROM YOUR PURPOSE

WHILE FOR A CELESTIAL BEING LIKE CHRIST FASTING WILL ALSO BE STAYING AWAY FROM HIS PURPOSE. EVERY-TIME HE WENT ALONE INTO THE WILDERNESS TO BE ALONE, HE WAS AWAY FROM HIS PURPOSE OF TEACHING THE PEOPLE. WHEN HE STAYED IN THE WILDERNESS ALONE FOR 40 DAYS AND FORTY NIGHTS, HE WAS FASTING MEANING HE WAS AWAY FROM HIS PURPOSE OF TEACHING THE PEOPLE.

SO FASTING IS BEING AWAY FROM YOUR DIVINE PURPOSE WHICH SO MANY PEOPLE IN THE WORLD ARE IN HEAVY FASTING AS WE SPEAK. THEY ARE LOST. BUT NOTHING TO DO WITH FOOD IN THE BIBLE

You have come again with your doctrine of demons and according to Jesus,it will take fasting and prayers to cast out such demons(deceiving) from you...
...and this things can not happen except by fasting and prayers!
Guys stop this your heresy...go back to God and accept Jesus into your life as your lord and personal saviour.

MARK 3 VS 11 And he said unto them, Unto you it is given to know the mystery of the kingdom of God: but unto them that are without, all these things are done in parables:

12 That seeing they may see, and not perceive; and hearing they may hear, and not understand; lest at any time they should be converted, and their sins should be forgiven them.

MATTHEW 4 VS 2 And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was afterward an hungred AND AFTER RESTING AND MEDITATING IN THE WILDERNESS FOR 4O DAYS AND 40 NIGHTS HE WAS EAGER TO GET BACK TO WORK. EAGER = HUNGRED

I love nairaland's religion section.

Goshen360: Sex between 2 unmarried adults (fornication) is not sin.

Obadiah Fasting has nothing to do with abstinence from food.

GOSHEN IS RIGHT. HOWEVER THE CONDITION TO HIM BEING RIGHT WILL BE
a- YOU MUST MARRY THE WOMAN AFTER THE ACT. IF YOU DONT, THATS WHAT MAKES IT FORNICATION. EXODUS 22 VS 16 And if a man entice a maid that is not betrothed, and lie with her, he shall surely endow her to be his wife <<< YOU MUST MARRY ANY WOMAN YOU SLEEP WITH. NOT MARRYING HER IS FORNICATION.

BROTHER PASCHAL007, ONE THING YOU WILL FIND OUT IS THAT A LOT OF BIBLICAL WORDS MEANT DIFFERENT THINGS WHEN IT WAS USED THAN THEY MEAN TODAY. 'FASTING', 'VIRGIN', 'SEA', 'MOUNTAIN', 'WATER', 'STONE', 'MILK', ETC ETC. THESE WORDS DONT MEAN WHAT THEY MEAN TODAY. HENCE THE CONFUSION OF MANY FOLKS TODAY. IN THE BIBLE FOR EXAMPLE
HORN = POWER
MOUNTAIN = COUNTRY
WATER = KNOWLEDGE
SEA = AN ASSORTMENT OF PEOPLE
BEAST = EMPIRE
VIRGIN = UNWED WOMAN ETC ETC ETC

are you saying that fasting doesn't neccessary mean bein without food?
That one can eat during fasting as long as one is not doing what one normally does?

Mintayo:

AM SAYING WHAT FASTING MEANT WHEN THE BIBLE WAS WRITTEN IS DIFFERENT FROM WHAT FASTING MEANS TODAY. TODAY FASTING IS ASSOCIATED WITH NOT EATING FOOD SIMPLY BECAUSE SOMEONE DIDNT INTERPRET THE SCRIPTURES CORRECTLY. ITS MANY BIBLICAL WORDS THAT DONT MEAN WHAT THEY MEAN TODAY WHEN THE BOOK WAS WRITTEN

Paschal007: I love nairaland's religion section.

Goshen360: Sex between 2 unmarried adults (fornication) is not sin.

it is always good for someone to stay with the Bible and let the Holy Spirit minister to you.

Both goshen and obadiah lack the Spirit of God in them,they need to sit down with God and ask for His Spirit. Christainity is not a religion,christainity is A WAY of LIFE(CHRIST).
So ppl shld only listen to God via His Spirit instead of so many false teaching and teachers we have today...end time is here indeed.

ONE OF THE REASONS WHY IT IS ASSOCIATED WITH FOOD TODAY IS BECAUSE OF THIS VERSE
LUKE 4 VS 2 Being forty days tempted of the devil. And in those days he did eat nothing: and when they were ended, he afterward hungered. <<< PEOPLE SEE THAT HE DID NOT EAT NOTHING AND THEY ASSOCIATE FASTING WITH FOOD. HOWEVER THEY DONT KNOW THAT THIS WHOLE PROCESS WAS IN PREPARATION FOR CHRIST TO GET TESTED LIKE HUMANS SO HE CAN SHOW THAT HE BECAME HUMAN AND TESTED AND TEMPTED JUST LIKE YOU. SO HE HAD TO BE IN ISOLATION SOMEWHERE AND AWAY FROM ANY SCROLLS TO MAKE HIM MORE TERRESTRIAL THAN CELESTIAL. IT IS THIS STAYING AWAY FROM SCROLLS THAT MEANS HE DID NOT EAT ANYTHING. WASNT TALKING ABOUT FOOD. HERE IS A PRECEPT

REVELATION 10 VS 9 And I went unto the angel, and said unto him, Give me the little book. And he said unto me, Take it, and eat it up; and it shall make thy belly bitter, but it shall be in thy mouth sweet as honey. WHEN YOU READ SCRIPTURES IT IS CALLED EATING IT.

Goshen360: Sex between 2 unmarried adults (fornication) is not sin.

what is fornication?
Fornication is any Sexual INTERCOURSE OUTSIDE MARRIAGE...meaning that if i have sex with a prostitute,i have fornicated contrary to what goshen or obadiah said.
Now lets check what the Word of God says about Fornication.
1 Cor 6: 12-19. (NLT).
12. You say, '' i am allowed to do anything''-but not everything is good for you.And even though ''I am allowed to do anything,'' I must not become a slave to anything.
13....But you cant say that our bodies were made for sexual IMMORALITY. They were made for the Lord...
Lets go to 18.
18. Run from sexual sin(fornication)! No other sin cleraly affects the body as this one does....

Eph 5:3
3. Let there be no sexual IMMORALITY, IMPURITY, OR GREED AMONG YOU. SUCH SINS HAVE NO PLACE AMONG GOD'S PEOPLE.
VS 5. YOU CAN BE SURE THAT NO IMMORAL,IMPURE OR GREEDY PERSON WILL INHERIT THE KINGDOM OF CHRIST AND GOD...
6.DON'T BE FOOLED BY THOSE WHO TRY TO EXCUSE THESE SINS,FOR THE ANGER OF GOD WILL FALL ONALL WHO DISOBEY HIM.

HE THAT HAS AN EAR LET HIM HERE.
STAY WITH THE BIBLE NOT WITH THESE FALSE TEACHERS.

THE FACT THAT FORNICATION IS A COMMON PRACTICE DOES NOT MAKE IT ACCEPTABLE TO GOD.

GOD BLESS US AL

Religion is killing you! If you like take my words out of context and go having se.x with every single woman. God is your judge, that's not what I said. Those who understood the context of my words knows what I meant.

PLS BRETHEN LET US STUDY THE BIBLE AND LET THE HOLY SPIRIT GUIDE US.

JONAH 3:5 (NLT)
THE PEOPLE OF NINEVEH BELIEVED GOD'S MESSAGE, AND FROM THE GREATEST TO THE LEAST,THEY DECLARED A FAST AND PUT ON BURLAP TO SHOW SORROW.

Neh 1:4(NLT)
when i heard this, i sat down and wept. Infact,for days i mourned, FASTED, and prayed to the God of heaven.

Esther 4:16
go and gather all the Jews of susa and fast for me. DO NOT EAT OR DRINK FOR THREE DAYS,NIGHT OR DAY. MY MAID AND I WILL DO THE SAME....

ACT 13:2
ONE DAY AS THESE MEN WERE WORSHIPING THE LORD AND FASTING(FASTING AND PRAYERS GO ES HAND IN HAND),THE HOLY SPIRIT SAID,'LDEDICATE BARNABAS AND SAUL...

ACT 9:9
HE REMAINED THERE BLIND FOR THREE DAYS AND DID NOT EAT OR DRINK.
Vs 19. AFTERWARD HE ATE SOME FOOD AND REGAINED HIS STRENGHT.

FASTING MEANS ABSTINENCE. BIBLICAL FASTING MEANS ABSTAINING FROM FOOD AND DRINKS FOR A PERIOD. IT IS AN ACT OF DENYING OURSELVES OF THINGS THAT GIVE US PLEASURE WITH A VIEW OF SUPPRESSING THE FLESH AND UPLIFTING THE SPIRIT(THAT WAS THE CASE OF JESUS).

IF JESUS DID NOT FAST WHAT IS THE ESSENCE OF THE DEVIL TEMPTING HIM,HE KNEW THAT JESUS WILL BE WEAK.
JESUS FASTED AND PRAYED FOR 40DAYS AND NIGHT,IT WAS AFTER THEN HE STARTED HIS MINISTRY.
MATT 4:17
FROM THEN ON JESUS BEGAN TO PREACH,''REPENT OF YOUR SINS AND TURN TO GOD, FOR THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN IS NEAR.

LUKE RECORDED IN LUKE 4:14
THEN JESUS RETURNED TO GALILEE FILLED WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT POWER(HIS MINISTRY STARTED AFTER FASTING AND PRAYER-HE WAS FILLED WITH POWER AFTER FASTING,THAT WAS WHY SATAN COULD NOT DEFEAT HIM WHEN HE WAS TEMPTED).
VS 2. WHERE HE WAS TEMPTED BY THE DEVIL FOR FORTY DAYS. JESUS ATE NOTHING ALL THAT TIME AND BECAME VERY HUNGRY.

ALL THE VERSES YOU HAVE QUOTED STILL SUPPORTS MY POINT. SO I DONT GET WHAT YOU ARE TRYING TO DO. LIKE I SAID, A FAST IS GOING AGAINST WHAT YOU NORMALLY DO. FOR CHRIST, HE NORMALLY TEACHES AND EATS SCRIPTURES. HE STOPPED DOING THAT TO PREPARE FOR TEMPTATION. IF YOU ARE A WICKED PERSON WHO IS ACCUSTOMED TO DOING WICKEDNESS 365 DAYS OF THE YEAR ? A FAST TO YOU WILL BE NOT TO DO WICKEDNESS FOR A CERTAIN PERIOD. SEE IT WORKS BOTH WAYS. YOU STILL NOT MADE ANY POINT YET
