nnamdiosu: God bless you brethren. This dialogue has broken me the whole day. I never saw in this passage what the Holy Spirit showed me today. I have always thought that God does things in my life for me. Today I know that it's all for others, not even for Himself. But For those who are lost, to raise questions in them, then in seeking answers, they could draw close. I pray to be a useful vessel. For when you make unselfish a willing vessel, you won't regret it, bros you can not show forth God's Glory and not glow yourself. Throughout this day, I asked for grace to be that vessel, fit for his use. The grace to know when am walking faster than Him. If he speaks, I will share. May He grant us the grace for obedience. God is not wicked. 6 Likes 1 Share |

I have an important message to share so You can value Jesus more importantly in your life based on history perspective. the topic is (((Nero Caesar and the Christian Faith))) |
Re: Seeing Demons, Angels, Fallen Angels, Spirits.. - Hsp's by ccollins(m): 7:40am On Dec 30, 2015 |
Nero Caesar and the Christian Faith BY WAYNE JACKSON One of the most despicable manifestations of human flesh ever to disgrace this planet was Nero Claudius Caesar. Born in A.D. 37, Nero was educated at the feet of the philosopher Seneca (whom he eventually forced to commit suicide). Nero murdered his way to the imperial throne, which he occupied from A.D. 54-68. His life was characterized by debauchery, violence (he caused his own mother to be killed), and extravagance. In A.D. 64, a terrible fire broke out in Rome. It was strongly believed that Nero deliberately torched the city in order to justify building a more splendid one. At any rate, the conflagration raged out of control for more than a week, substantially destroying about 70% of the area. As a consequence of this tragedy, and the widespread belief in Nero’s complicity, the emperor became the brunt of intense criticism. The ruler seized upon a plan. Due to the fact that Roman sentiment was hostile toward Christianity, the emperor would blame the followers of Jesus for this crime. Thus did he, and in A.D. 64, a fierce persecution was launched against the saints in Rome. We do not know for certain how or when the cause of Christ was planted in Rome. Apparently it was not the result of apostolic mission efforts (cf. Rom. 1:11). It could be that some from Rome, converted on the day of Pentecost (cf. Acts 2:10), migrated back to their home city and established the church there. Regardless, this was the first real test of faith for the saints in the “eternal city.” |
Re: Seeing Demons, Angels, Fallen Angels, Spirits.. - Hsp's by ccollins(m): 7:40am On Dec 30, 2015 |
The Neronian persecution was vicious indeed. Tacitus (c. A.D. 60-120), a Roman historian, has preserved a record of this situation. We quote the following from his Annals (XV.44). “And so, to get rid of this rumor, Nero set up [i.e., falsely accused] as the culprits and punished with the utmost refinement of cruelty a class hated for their abominations, who are commonly called Christians. Christus, from whom their name is derived, was executed at the hands of the procurator Pontius Pilate in the reign of Tiberius. Checked for a moment, this pernicious superstition again broke out, not only in Judea, the source of the evil, but even in Rome…. Accordingly, arrest was first made of those who confessed [to being Christians]; then, on their evidence, an immense multitude was convicted, not so much on the charge of arson as because of [their] hatred for the human race. Besides being put to death they were made to serve as objects of amusement; they were clothed in the hides of beasts and torn to death by dogs; others were crucified, others set on fire to serve to illuminate the night when daylight failed. Nero had thrown open his grounds for the display, and was putting on a show in the circus, where he mingled with the people in the dress of charioteer or drove about in his chariot. All this gave rise to a feeling of pity, even towards men whose guilt merited the most exemplary punishment; for it was felt that they were being destroyed not for the public good but to gratify the cruelty of an individual.” |
Re: Seeing Demons, Angels, Fallen Angels, Spirits.. - Hsp's by ccollins(m): 7:44am On Dec 30, 2015 |
There are several interesting things to consider about
this topic.
First, Nero was the Caesar to whom Paul appealed
when he was unjustly accused by the Jews and
falsely imprisoned (cf. Acts 25:11). The apostle was
taken to Rome and kept under guard for two years
(Acts 28:30), before Nero finally heard his case.
It is incorrect to say: “[I]t is unknown whether Nero
took any personal part in the Apostle’s trial” (Cross,
945). We know this because an angel had explicitly
informed Paul: “you must stand before Caesar” (Acts
27:24). The great apostle won his appeal (as
chronological data in First Timothy, Titus, and
Second Timothy reveal), only to be later condemned
by the malevolent ruler. According to the historian
Eusebius, Nero beheaded Paul and had Peter
crucified (II.25).
Next, when Paul wrote to the Christians in Rome, he
admonished: “Let every soul be in subjection to the
higher powers” (13:1). He points out that
government, generally speaking, is for the ordering
and protection of society. Laws directed to that end
ought to be obeyed.
Similarly, Peter wrote: “Be subject to every ordinance
of man for the Lord’s sake: whether to the king, as
supreme; or unto governors, as sent by him” (1 Pet.
2:13,14).
These passages are subtle indicators of the inspired
nature of the New Testament. Men who were writing
under ordinary human impulses would hardly have
encouraged brethren to honor and obey one as vile
as Nero. But Christians are to be good citizens
regardless of the character of their leaders.
Then consider this point. Tacitus mentions “Christus,”
from whom the “Christians” derived their name. This
is a clear reference to Christ. In Greek “Christ” is
Christos . The historian affirms that “Christus” was
“executed at the hand of the procurator Pontius
Pilate in the reign of Tiberius.”
In view of this, how can certain atheists, with a
vestige of remaining conscience, continue to claim
that the ancient historians never mentioned Christ?
A recent writer asserts that “there were no
references to Jesus by contemporary historians.” He
even includes Tacitus (Matthews, A10).
Another skeptic classifies Tacitus’ testimony as
“doubtful,” and suggests that the historian was
merely reporting what Christians believed, and not
what he viewed as actual history (Hayes, 147).
Such writers have forfeited every ounce of literary
credibility.
Next, Tacitus says that Nero’s persecution resulted in
the apprehension of some Christians who, in turn,
testified against their brethren so that “an immense
multitude was convicted” and put to death.
It is of some interest that there were church
members in Rome who were willing to surrender
their own brethren to the authorities for
persecution.
This cannot but remind us of a situation Paul
encountered while he was in the city. When the
apostle wrote to the Philippians, he exposed the fact
that some of the brethren in Rome were envious of
his labor in the gospel. Paul charged that they
“preach Christ even of envy and strife” hoping to
“raise up affliction” for him in his bonds (1:15-17).
They would rub salt in the apostle’s wounds! (cf. Mt.
24:10). |
Re: Seeing Demons, Angels, Fallen Angels, Spirits.. - Hsp's by ccollins(m): 7:46am On Dec 30, 2015 |
It is not difficult to imagine that some of these were
the very ones who “turned state’s evidence” under
Nero’s brutal assaults.
Tacitus also describes the torture to which Christians
were subjected — thrown to wild dogs to be torn
apart, burned alive to serve as torches in the night.
What suffering! What faith!!
The crucial question is this: In spite of some
defectors, why was that “immense multitude” of
saints so willing to endure this horrible treatment?
It can only be that they had strong evidence that
Christianity was genuine — that Jesus of Nazareth,
the founder, had risen from the dead, and that he
offered the hope of eternal life to those who
endured in faith.
It is a tragic footnote to history that Rome eventually
became the focal point of an egregious apostasy
from the faith. Can we learn anything from this? REFERENCES Cross, Frank. 1958 The Oxford Dictionary of the Christian Church . London: Oxford Press.

Your post is a water down my throat, I had so much expectations this year but some came while those i desire most still coming..... it was such a burden to be thinking about those things, but as youth of Faith i stood on what am good at, #HaveFaithInGod, but i soon got the last stroke of the year.

vooks: This is good. I'm always amazed with the way God speaks. Your dream is straightforward. It's talking about this thread. The safari (hunting expedition of wild animals/beasts) is simply about this thread's topic 'Seeing Demons, Angels..'..Just like safari is like a warfare on animals. This thread is warfare on the satanic kingdom. God actually calls demons 'beasts or foul creatures'. Inhabited places are places people or christians don't usually tread or discuss (just like this thread of seeing demons etc.) Your past school mates refers to historic knowledge or a learning ground. The small cracks is small unnecessary matters/arguments that will lead into 'Big cracks' (big problems).. Your Father is God Himself. Interpretation:God is saying.. Don't dwell on small unnecessary arguments that may eventually lead into Big problems on the thread. I'm glad God has told you this Himself. GOD BLESS YOU VOOKS 10 Likes |
