ijawkid: The bolded and the bit in red was the attraction. God has no birth date and God cannot die as well. It goes together. If i cannot celebrate God's birthday because he does not have one, i cannot commemorate his death because he no dey die. abi? anyways make i leave matter. ijawkid: Not my fault, you guys keep coming up with something new for me to respond to. |
Re: Christians, Can You Trace The History Of Your Feastival......? by Rich4god(m): 9:45am On Dec 27, 2012 |
ijawkid:Good. It is right to commemorate the last supper abi? Then you are no different form us because on the day you are commemoratin it, am sure there is a spirit/idol that is related to that particular day. So you just proved yourself to be an idol worshipper just like you said we are. |

Zikkyy: though we are gentiles, we are expected to abandon the practices we had that are pegan and involve pegan worship on becoming a christian. That you are still carrying your bags and baggages along into the "christian church" puts you at risks. The bible said we are to abandon the secondhanded things of the world on becoming a christian. Are the directive of how to worship Yahweh not enough for you as recorded in the bible? Why not work on only his provisions as not to risk error and his wrath? The christian way is called the "narrow way" why do you think it is called ^^^ the narrow way? Do you think it is the narrow way for fancy? No. It is narrow because "trailers"(Chrismas and other and any how form of worship is not allowed) you have miss the narrow gate because you are driving a "trailer" and the gate is too small for you. Drop your extra extra baggages. Peace. 1 Like |

ijawkid:The only proof you guys have against birthday is because the bible recorded that a pagan celebrated it, it never stated that a pagan started it. So am telling you tthat you are been selective in your judgement. Am pretty sure that even before the time of Herod there are people who celebrate birthday. Mind you people exited before the bible were written so basing your arguement on the issue of birthday based on what is written in the bible to conclude that birthday is pagan is illogical/basless and more over, the bible recorded Herod's birthday to show the circumstance that lead to the death of John and not to render it a pagan worship. |

Zikkyy: Just tell us you have no different interpretation to your statement because it was clear as daylight. no one is forcing you for any interpretation because it has no other interpretation except what is there for us all to see. |

Zikkyy:In the long run you should knw where I'm heading at na....I'm trying to debunk both the trinity and xmas put together........... Bottom line:::...xmas has no scriptural foundation...........its just crazy...... people can do what they like but let's respect our Lord and stop squeezing him into paganism.......that's the point of this thread......xmas is a big LIE...let's teach our kids the truth..... Zikkyy: Lol.............na ona cause am too...... |

Re: Christians, Can You Trace The History Of Your Feastival......? by truthislight: 9:58am On Dec 27, 2012 |
Rich4god: if you use it in the worship of Yahweh or the praise of his son Jesus christ then you have miss fired. We are here doing all this talking because it is use for christian worship. QED |
Re: Christians, Can You Trace The History Of Your Feastival......? by ijawkid(m): 10:02am On Dec 27, 2012 |
Rich4god: Lol.....we commemorate the last supper(sacrificial death) of Christ on the date he instituted it.......again Jesus gave the command....how you want to relate this to your pagan xmas that is a fraud and a lie would make me never reply you again on this topic.....................the only spirit that is in charge of the commemoration of Christ death is the holy spirit.......as for your christmas you know it is the spirit of the world that's in charge....... |

Re: Christians, Can You Trace The History Of Your Feastival......? by truthislight: 10:03am On Dec 27, 2012 |
Zikkyy: this are the errors of Chrismas and trinitarians. Yahweh is the almighty God and not Jesus christ: "And I appeared unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob, by the name of God Almighty, but by my name JEHOVAH was I not known to them." (Exodus 6:3). But Jesus also bears the title God also but might God: "For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, "The mighty God", The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace." (Isaiah 9:6). Dont be deceived. |

Re: Christians, Can You Trace The History Of Your Feastival......? by truthislight: 10:08am On Dec 27, 2012 |
Rich4god: Jesus commanded it no offence please. Were did Jesus command you to celebrate chrismas. Dont be a worker of "lawlessness" "And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, you workers of lawlessness" (Matthew 7:23) |
Re: Christians, Can You Trace The History Of Your Feastival......? by ijawkid(m): 10:10am On Dec 27, 2012 |
Rich4god: What about pharoah na and all the birthdays of zeus,artemis et al.........??........going by the bibles standards no servant of God celebrated birthdays..its as clear as day.........birthdays was never a custom of Gods people....it has always been of pagans.......why u dey argue like this??....abi the harmattan dey worry u??.......... ______________________________ I can't stop you from celebrating your birthday,........I'm only worried because you are projecting such pagan custom on Jesus the holy servant of GOD...........the xmas has and would never be to the glory of God and his son........its all to the glory of presumptuous people who want to indulge in self gratification while hiding behind the cloak of christianity...... |
Re: Christians, Can You Trace The History Of Your Feastival......? by Rich4god(m): 10:13am On Dec 27, 2012 |
ijawkid:LOL... Good to hear that. Now what will you say of angels that were rejoincing when Christ was born? Lk 2:12-15. |
Re: Christians, Can You Trace The History Of Your Feastival......? by Rich4god(m): 10:20am On Dec 27, 2012 |
ijawkid:I keep on telling you... the bible didnt record everthing, neither are you expecting the bible to have a set out rule of our day to day activities. Going from the bible standard, no early christian enrolled in NYSC, but now you are a copper. Will you then say that you are going against the bible standard. I raised the issue of celebrating graduation party. You said i should provide its history. Assuming am to pick my history from a buddist country where the student engaged in graduation party, will you then say that its of pagan origin knowing fully well that there are christian country where such are been celebrated. |
Re: Christians, Can You Trace The History Of Your Feastival......? by ijawkid(m): 10:22am On Dec 27, 2012 |
Rich4god: And here goes rich4God asking the same questions that have been answered.....rich4God we go fight gidigbo o.....................plapville and I think todaynatoday answered this question and even myself.......scroll back and read the comments.............the angels rejoiced that the means by which humans would gain eternal life had been sent to the earth ....they did not commemorate Christ birth........the angels did not do xmas.........did they??......you think the angels are pagans ??........ |
Re: Christians, Can You Trace The History Of Your Feastival......? by Zikkyy(m): 10:24am On Dec 27, 2012 |
truthislight: Good talk! and we have done just that. All pagan practices have been dropped. What we do now is ensure we don't practice anything that is against the commandment to Love God and neighbor. We are so in love with God we decided to celebrate the coming of Christ by dedicating a special day for some extra special 'spiritual sessions' and subsequent jollification it's not that we don't do it everyday, it just that you can't have a public holiday on a daily basis, so the merry-ment on that special day is truely...... 'special' and we so loooove our neighbors we decided to give gifts as well so what wrong with that? tell me |
Re: Christians, Can You Trace The History Of Your Feastival......? by Rich4god(m): 10:24am On Dec 27, 2012 |
truthislight:I keep on saying this, you all are been selective in your judgement. Who professed to you to make use of a compiled bible. Why not go and pick/carry the scroll in which the early christians used, or better still make your translation using ink and written on scroll. |
Re: Christians, Can You Trace The History Of Your Feastival......? by truthislight: 10:26am On Dec 27, 2012 |
Rich4god: birthday celebration glorify/worship the spirit/demon of the day of ones birth. It is self worship on the notion that the individual "is a god" as satan hes told eve in eden. That the day is the day that "you" the god ways born. Chrismas is just the same thing and they used it in the church today. That you dont know does not mean that ignorance is an excuse. It does not mean that Yahweh does not know it origin. and that is why it is safe to walk on the thin rope of what the bible says as to avoid mistakes like this. You cannot be eating in the temple of God and the temple of idol the bible says. |

Zikkyy:Its obvious that from their response, they never want to learn. WAny time you site an example that butress their point, they ask you to open another thread on that topic. Am not a religion freak... But i hate it when people try to be selective in things that matters about faith. |
Re: Christians, Can You Trace The History Of Your Feastival......? by Todaynatoday: 10:32am On Dec 27, 2012 |
ijawkid:Yes, I don't attach much importance to Christmas or birthday celebrations. I just want us to end this thread amicably or else this thread would just be like the angel Michael=Jesus thread, never-ending. |
Re: Christians, Can You Trace The History Of Your Feastival......? by Zikkyy(m): 10:32am On Dec 27, 2012 |
ijawkid: Depend on how you celebrate it. You no say oyinbo dey spice up their activities, that's why you dey see santa dey run up and down for christmas time, and africans wey like to imitate oyinbo go also dress up like santa too (the reason you have black santa). But my worship and chop-chop no be lie. If to say you visit me that day and sample that special chop-chop you go know say that food no fit be lie |
