Go back and read Matthew 5 vs 38 - 48 & Luke 6 vs 27 - 36 carefully and then come back and let us know if God is indeed the one blessing your Adeboye with those lies of his. undecided
38 You have heard that it was said, ‘An eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth.’[i]
39 But I tell you, don’t fight back against someone who wanfs to do harm to you. If they hit you on the right cheek, let them hit the other cheek too.
40 If anyone wants to sue you in court and take your shirt, let them have your coat too.
41 If a soldier forces you to walk with him one mile,[j] go with him two.
42 Give to anyone who asks you for something. Don’t refuse to give to anyone who wants to borrow from you. - Matthew 5 vs 38 - 42

MOG vs BIBLE?

Who to choose?

Where's the Holy Spirit?

Hmm...Daddy G.O remember
"And unto him that smiteth thee on the one cheek offer also the other; and him that taketh away thy cloke forbid not to take thy coat also." (Luk 6:29 )
" Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy.
But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;" (Matt 5:43&44)

One problem we've got with so many so called literate in Nigeria right now is getting to read, understand and comprehend. the heading clearly state "No where in the bible does it reads a Christian cannot defend himself"

So for what reasons are y'all bringing out this bible verses for?? Perhaps y'all forgot Peter defended his master with a knife, what was he doing with it about??

Hear 1Peter 2:21-23

21 This is, in fact, what you were called to do, because: The Messiah also suffered for you and left an example for you to follow in his steps.

22 “He never sinned, and he never told a lie.”

23 When he was insulted, he did not retaliate. When he suffered, he did not threaten. It was his habit to commit the matter to the one who judges fairly.

Didn't the master caution him when he defended himself?
You are the Illiterate one here!

In Matthew 26:52-54 Jesus says, "Put your sword back into its place; for all those who take up the sword shall perish by the sword.

2b. Perhaps y'all forgot Peter defended his master with a knife, what was he doing with it about??
1. What Jesus Christ told in Matthew 5 vs 38 - 48 and Luke 6 vs 27 - 36 , He told to His followers aka Christians. undecided

2a. The man made a false claim of what is written in scripture, and quoting directly from scripture one reveals the falsehood of his claim. undecided

2b. Peter's foolish attempt at defending Jesus Christ, this against Jesus Christ's own teachings(and commandments) was a sin against God, transgression against God's Law. And it however happened in order that that prophesied by the prophets in in Isaiah 53 vs 12 , where it is written that He(Jesus Christ) was numbered among the transgressors , would be fulfilled. undecided

And what was the outcome?
"Then Simon Peter having a sword drew it, and smote the high priest's servant, and cut off his right ear. The servant's name was Malchus.

Then said Jesus unto Peter, Put up thy sword into the sheath: the cup which my Father hath given me, shall I not drink it?

Then the band and the captain and officers of the Jews took Jesus, and bound him,' (John 18:10-12)

"But Jesus said unto him, Judas, betrayest thou the Son of man with a kiss?

When they which were about him saw what would follow, they said unto him, Lord, shall we smite with the sword?

And one of them smote the servant of the high priest, and cut off his right ear.

And Jesus answered and said, Suffer ye thus far. And he touched his ear, and healed him".(Luke 22:48-51)

Please learn to quite scriptures properly and not just lifting to soothe your argument

If you read the passage - Luke 22 vs 35 - 38 & Luke 22 vs 47 - 53 - carefully, you will see that it was Jesus Christ Himself to helped set the seen for what was to take place that evening.. the fulfillment of what was written in Isaiah 53 vs 12. undecided

The real question you are dodging here is, why does peter have a sword with him?
