azzima: Watch yur words bro,because the so called church yu attend, can you trace the origin of it?. You worship in the faith of one man who tells you wat he thinks. Catholic origin is from the Apostles of christ,and it still continues to the end of time |

HerexG:I know you sounded like an atheist and probably an atheist, but in all your wisdom and knowledge of this world that you have acquired right from when you are a kid, who created you? Can human being create another human being? Or you also just believed you were existing and humans came to life. Think about the supernatural and also think about how you can retrace your steps to God and come back to him. If you don't know there are forces in this life think again. Go and believe that the charm you put on will make bullet not penetrate your body and tell us that it is just believe. But today you and I see people putting on charm and it truly prevents bullet from penetrating their body. That is simple proof that supernatural exist, and if supernatural evil exist in such manner then it goes a long way to tell you that there are also true and supernatural spirit from the most high that is holy. |

For those who doubt the authority of the Pope, hear this: True, the word "Pope" doesn't appear in the Bible, but then neither do the words "Trinity," "Incarnation," "Ascension" and "Bible" appear in the Bible. However, they are referred to by other names. The Bible, for example, is referred to as "Scripture." the Pope, which means head, bishop of the Church, is referred to as the "rock" of the Church, or as the "shepherd" of the Church. Christ used that terminology when He appointed the Apostle Peter the first head bishop of His Church, Sayin: "Blessed art thou, Simon Bar-Jona...Thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church." (Matt. 16:17-19). "There shall be one fold and one shepherd." (John 10:16). "Feed my lambs...feed my sheep." (John 21:15-17). The words "rock" and "shepherd" must apply to Peter, and they must distinguish him as the head Apostle, otherwise Christ's statements are so ambiguous as to be meaningless. Certainly the other Apostles understood that Peter had authority from Christ to lead the Church, for they gave him the presiding place every time they assembled in council (Acts 1:15, 5:1-10), and they placed his name first every time they listed the names of the Apostles (Matt. 10:2, Mark 3:16, Luke 6:13-14, Acts 1:13). Hence, the source of the Pope's authority to rule over the Catholic Church is quite obvious: it was given him by none other than Jesus Christ- by God Himself. 2 Likes |

Screw catholicism, who are they to determine who to forgive or not. I am glad I left that religion. All glory and honour belongs to our God. |

kamez:point of correction am not a Catholic am a Christian. Regarding ur question about Trinity,Trinity does not literally mean One,it means one in Accordance,what is accordance means is that they work for the same purpose that does not mean that they are actually one God,That's y it is separated by saying God the Father,God the Son and God the Holy spirit to show u that they are different |

HerexG: So how did you come about the intuition? What is the process by which an intuition can displayed in a trance? It depends on what you mean by religion. Humans were born with the instinct of a higher order of power. But on how to go about connecting with that power, requires training. Just the same way babies are born to walk, but before they do, they have to be trained. That is why humans go to science for explanations. |

kamez: In Matthew, chapter 9, verse 6, Jesus tells us that He was given authority on earth to forgive sins. And then Scripture proceeds to tell us, in verse 8, that this authority was given to "men"...plural. In John 20, verses 21-23, what is the first thing Jesus says to the gathered disciples on the night of His resurrection? "Jesus said to them, 'Peace be with you. As the Father has sent me, even so I send you.'" How did the Father send Jesus? Well, we just saw in Matthew 9 that the Father sent Jesus with the authority on earth to forgive sins. Now, Jesus sends out His disciples as the Father has sent Him...so, what authority must Jesus be sending His disciples out with? The authority on earth to forgive sins. And, just in case they didn't get it, verses 22-23 say this, "And when He had said this, He breathed on them, and said to them, 'Receive the Holy Spirit. If you forgive the sins of any, they are forgiven; if you retain the sins of any, they are retained.'" Why would Jesus give the Apostles the power to forgive or to retain sins if He wasn't expecting folks to confess their sins to them? And how could they forgive or retain sins if no one was confessing their sins to them? The Bible tells us to confess our sins to one another. It also tells us that God gave men the authority on Earth to forgive sins. Jesus sends out His disciples with the authority on earth to forgive sins. When Catholics confess our sins to a priest, we are simply following the plan laid down by Jesus Christ. He forgives sins through the priest...it is God's power, but He exercises that power through the ministry of the priest. God bless you!! 1 Like |

Jeromejnr: Its simple your intuition got revealed in your trance "The encounter with an angel" as u said. A child is never taught how to walk but definitely walk someday but if you were not taught about this Christian belief you will never know a jack about it and yet you will live your normal life as a natural being 1 Like |

HerexG: First of all for someone to be in a trance, he has to be in a dazed or hypnotic state. I was in neither. Just as a child will walk someday, most humans if given a chance to live old will one day on their deathbed consider the possibility of a higher power and if they've been wrong all along. Because at the end of the day that's where all of life is heading to. The reason why most don't consider it now, is because they are still full of life and they busy themselves with so many things. |
Re: Pope Francis To Allow Priests To Forgive Women Who Had Abortions by okitikpo: 8:11pm On Sep 01, 2015 |
HerexG:you told someone that he knows nothing about religion and I also believe that it is also applicable to you. But truth is that I rather still follow the religion of ancient history than that created by modern men. We know how modern men have derailed the world. The Bible that both of us read and believe in was never created nor written in modern days. What I know is that modernity has tried to change the religion of old and which we know it is not supposed to be so, cos God does not change neither is religion supposed to be changed to suit our ways of life. There are things that we should rather leave they way they are rather than trying to modify them with our now and more sinful ways; and one of those things is religion |

Look at what Jesus says in verse
21 of John's gospel Chapter 20, “As the Father has sent me, even so I send
you.” What did God the Father send the Son to do?
Among other things, He was sent not to judge but
to save the world (John 12:47), He was sent to
forgive sins (Mark 2:10), and to bring light to a
dark world (John 12:35). So now does Jesus send
His twelve (Judas will be replaced in Acts 1:42) to
carry on His mission of reconciliation.
How are the twelve to perform this mission? Easy,
by either forgiving or retaining sins is how.
Question then, how are the twelve to decide
whether or not to forgive or retain any sins, unless
they are told what those sins are? Just like the
Priest, who received the sinner at the door of the
Tabernacle in Leviticus, had to hear the confession
first, so to do the twelve have to hear the
confession of the sinner prior to either forgiving or
retaining their sin. |
