Only 4HIV cases Paul healed an entire city.

If you're not seeking valivation, what is the aim of this thread? What will you do next? Create a human being?

The name Jesus means more than physical healing. I assumed you should know that by now but then....






How many have you healed? Shey, u do silent things only God sees...If he offers you documented cases u would reject it and still doubt and say he's clamouring spotlight, why didn’t peter and paul stop luke from reporting the miracles they wrought? Why did Jesus tell folks of things he's done?

EvilBrain1: What kid of useless thread is this? The guy had a false positive result, what's miraculous about that?

You people insist promoting this superstitious nonsense even though its endangering everybody's lives. You'll keep on spreading this "Jesus magic can cure Ebola" lie until somebody with the virus comes to your church and turns the outbreak into a full-blown epidemic.

The real disease plaguing humanity is not Ebola, its stupíd religious people. You guys won't be happy until you've killed everybody.

Gosh!

Religion is a brain cancer.
That is the only explanation .

If Jesus exists, then why are christians always soooooo desperate to give him credit for this and for that?
Doesn't that alone tell everyone that Joagbaje, in his heart, does not believe in Jesus, that is why he claims everything for Jesus just to reasure himself and others like him.

The point is that sickneses and des eases are from the devil and a cure can come when the devil is cast out. The church was founded on power . .

The problem with your form of Christianity is that every challenge is devil-

Joseph goes to prison- devil

Jesus killed on the cross - devil

Apostles died for the gospel - devil

Job lost all he had - devil

Peter went through a test- devil

Does it ever occur to you that God is in control of every life that is in Christ and He has a purpose even when we don't seem to be comfortable?


My man, even when God is working on you you will pray yourself out of God's will simply because discomfort equals devil's work in your book.

Through your kind, many have converted to other religions, some have become atheist all together.

I do work miracles as expected of a christian . I have at least 4 HIV cases healed . Blind cases . And a dead raised to life. I don't need any validation from anyone. It's only sad. That many folks here don't know christ nor his power. See how so called Christians are shaking at a common demonic desease. What does the name if Jesus mean to you? What does his death mean to you. Do you know him ? The gospel is not in words but it's in power.

I'm not witchunting him (I fit?), I consider him an egbon but honestly speaking the me me me and I I I stories when it comes to miracles should reduce. Jesus did it, end of story. Check out all the messages Paul delivered in acts of the apostles, how many did he start with tales of the people he healed? Let those who are healed publicise it. That's what Christ and the apostles did.

I might be in lag then. Keeping my fingers crossed.

One thing you and people like jo refuse to understand through scripture is how God sees the present world.

You put the soul secondary and the quest to gratify the flesh is your primary concern. Anywhere the bible refer to soul, you convert it to flesh because of the love you have for your present and fading habitat.

On the issue of why Christians fall sick, I believe I said Christians SHOULDN'T fall sick. If you still see Christians that fall sick it is the same reason Christians still sin even after Christ saved them from all their sins. Abi didn't Christ save them?

I said it is the power unto salvation, you say it is the power to save.

Romans 1:16 was definitely referring to the soul, if using the word 'save' means salvation of the soul to you, no qualms. As long as you don't add all all the extras you love to add.

The entire doctrinal books made little or no importance to the flesh or what the world can offer. The fulcrum of their existence was fixated on eternal life and a message for the growth of the soul. You, like jo are seemingly more concerned about the present life than any apostle and pioneers of the gospel ever did.

mbaemeka:

No, I don't agree with your analogy. What Christ died for was SIN and not sins. The bible never said Christians will not commit sins or we will be perfect. It says we should mortify the flesh so we don't act as though we are yet slaves to SIN.

If what you propagate is right, we should not be falling ill as Christians and even when we do we should be able to command a response from any sickness to flee as long as we do not doubt. But no, some people go to fraudsters who claim they have these powers for decade without a solution. The next line after such person becomes a full member of the supposed church is the 'God's time is the best' mantra.

What is salvation as used in Romans 1:16

It is the spiritual and eternal deliverance granted immediately by God to those who accept His condition by faith through the gospel of Christ.

The gospel/good news is the only place where the power of God unto salvation is guaranteed.

What exactly is the news that carries God's power unto salvation?

It is the news of Jesus Christ who paid a price of death for every sinner who will believe He died, He rose and resurrected the third day to save us from the wrath to come.

1 thess 1:5 describes this same power that comes by the gospel of Jesus Christ, the power unto salvation and the advent of the Holy Ghost who is our comforter.

2. When you say the 'entire doctrinal books' does Romans 8: 11 qualify as part of the one's that have no importance to the flesh?


Romans 8
11 But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.


When will our mortal bodies be quickened?

This is when a glorified body will replace the present body of flesh we carry at this moment. The same way Christ was raised from the dead, we shall be raised with another body that isn't connected to sin or the world.

Eternal life is a blissful and endless life with God

3. Explain 1 John 3:9 in the light of "the bible never says Christians will not commit sins".

Now, we must understand the setting of the bible to avoid confusion. We do have doctrines that explains the entire mystery that surround our life as Christians. When we read our bible, we must take note of who is speaking, to whom and why.

When we read books like James, Peter, John, we will sometimes notice contradictions when we juxtapose these books with the book of Paul. James, Peter, John were not teachers of grace, they observed and maintained their temple worship and the legalistic form of life the Jews were known for. They wrote and addressed their books primarily to the Jews.

The books written to the Jews and to the church have raised different factions of Christians ... Some believe righteousness is by keeping the law through self righteousness and the other believe righteousness can only come by grace alone.

Apostle Paul became the minister God raised specially for the Gentiles to preach a message that breaks whatever barrier that made the Jews feel they were more accepted. He taught a message of grace addressed to the church.

In Acts 26, Paul explained all Jesus said to Him, he wrote and unveiled secrets that were hid in God to the church in the epistles. Paul explained all we needed to know as Christians even how to be saved was explained by apostle Paul only.

If we must understand what Sin means, we must go to the book of Romans 6,7 for full details. We must also understand that a regenerated spirit otherwise known as the new man is the real man that does not sin.

These two personalities were described by Paul- he made it really clear in the verse below-


25 I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin.

"I myself' in this verse is the real man that became a Christian and the body/the flesh we live in is the container that carries the real Christian.

As per sickness, I cannot be sick and yes I have commanded sicknesses to leave and all the times it checked out. I have appplied what I have seen in the message. Have you?


As long as you don't stop others from using medicine that is fit for an ailment.

As for me, like Paul I try to keep my mind at rest in plenty or in nothing, in sickness and in health knowing fully well that God's grace is sufficient at all times.

I understand the body gets weaker, it depicts and loses vigour as i get older while my spirit man grows. If I have headache, I use panadol, it works like magic and it is available. That is for my flesh. If I need to feed my real man, my soul man, I pray, I study scriptures.

I know what salvation is I want to know what Paul meant by "the gospel is the power unto salvation" and how it relates to this

1 thess 1:5 describes this same power that comes by the gospel of Jesus Christ, the power unto salvation and the advent of the Holy Ghost who is our comforter.

What is the power that comes by the gospel and what is it used for?

Acts 1:8King James Version (KJV)
8 But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you:


That word for Power here is Dunamis in Greek. This is the same power Paul referred to in all scripture. Care to add it in your explanation?

Romans 8
11 But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you.


When will our mortal bodies be quickened?

This is when a glorified body will replace the present body of flesh we carry at this moment. The same way Christ was raised from the dead, we shall be raised with another body that isn't connected to sin or the world.

3 things make your explanation above null and void and they are:

-The Spirit does the quickening as he dwells in us. When will he dwell in us?
-Paul said he will quicken; give life; strengthen our MORTAL bodies. The glorified body is not MORTAL it is IMMORTAL and it is not quickened from the old. It is a NEW and indestructible body that requires NO quickening.
-He didn't say he will raise our mortal bodies but that he will quicken; vitalize; strengthen it as he dwells in us.

Eternal life is a blissful and endless life with God

The Greek for eternal life is Zoe. Do you know what Zoe means?

Now, we must understand the setting of the bible to avoid confusion. We do have doctrines that explains the entire mystery that surround our life as Christians. When we read our bible, we must take note of who is speaking, to whom and why.

When we read books like James, Peter, John, we will sometimes notice contradictions when we juxtapose these books with the book of Paul. James, Peter, John were not teachers of grace, they observed and maintained their temple worship and the legalistic form of life the Jews were known for. They wrote and addressed their books primarily to the Jews.

The books written to the Jews and to the church have raised different factions of Christians ... Some believe righteousness is by keeping the law through self righteousness and the other believe righteousness can only come by grace alone.

Apostle Paul became the minister God raised specially for the Gentiles to preach a message that breaks whatever barrier that made the Jews feel they were more accepted. He taught a message of grace addressed to the church.

In Acts 26, Paul explained all Jesus said to Him, he wrote and unveiled secrets that were hid in God to the church in the epistles. Paul explained all we needed to know as Christians even how to be saved was explained by apostle Paul only.

If we must understand what Sin means, we must go to the book of Romans 6,7 for full details. We must also understand that a regenerated spirit otherwise known as the new man is the real man that does not sin.

These two personalities were described by Paul- he made it really clear in the verse below-


25 I thank God through Jesus Christ our Lord. So then with the mind I myself serve the law of God; but with the flesh the law of sin.

"I myself' in this verse is the real man that became a Christian and the body/the flesh we live in is the container that carries the real Christian.

How does it explain what John said in the verse of scripture given? Ok let me fix Paul in the mix. What did he mean by?


Romans 6:14King James Version (KJV)
14 For sin shall not have dominion over you: for ye are not under the law, but under grace.


Notice Paul said sin SHALL not have dominion over you and not sin SHOULD not? How come sin still dominates some Christians?

As long as you don't stop others from using medicine that is fit for an ailment.

I have never stopped anyone from using medicine- Medicine is good. But what becomes of someone when the medicine doesn't work or the ailment has no cure?

As for me, like Paul I try to keep my mind at rest in plenty or in nothing, in sickness and in health knowing fully well that God's grace is sufficient at all times.

I understand the body gets weaker, it depicts and loses vigour as i get older while my spirit man grows. If I have headache, I use panadol, it works like magic and it is available. That is for my flesh. If I need to feed my real man, my soul man, I pray, I study scriptures.

The word of God is Marpe to our flesh too. Jesus said Man shall not live by bread alone. He didn't say man shall not live by bread at all. The word of God still works the Spirit; soul and then FLESH of a man.

Joagbaje:



James 1:13
Let no one say when he is tempted, “I am being tempted by God,” for God cannot be tempted with evil, and he himself tempts no one.[/color]


Genesis 22 King James Version (KJV)

22 And it came to pass after these things, that God did tempt Abraham, and said unto him, Abraham: and he said, Behold, here I am.

2 And he said, Take now thy son, thine only son Isaac, whom thou lovest, and get thee into the land of Moriah; and offer him there for a burnt offering upon one of the mountains which I will tell thee of.

I understand where you're coming from though. Isaac's murder would have been justified, with the order to kill coming directly from the commander in chief.

That's a good test. It's different from sickness. God doesn't tempt with evil. If God ask you to do something ,it's different from bringing sickness upon you.

And what's your point?

If you make boast of chewing drugs as means of cure. You needed to see Gods perspective on it, even from Old Testament. Those who serve God ought to go to God for cure.
