@LORDI and some others, u guys are misinterpreting the bible, u can't interprete the bible with ur brain as if u are reading a novel, the bible is understood by guidance of the holy spirit. U are saying christians must not own material possessions, from ur point of view I'll say david wasn't a christian, neither was job a christian nor solomon or abraham. (Christians asin followers of christ, christ an offspring of God, balling down to follower of God) Because they all had material possessions. Does it make any sense to u? Now from my perspective, these men were blessed with material possessions by God. In ur own christianity, is being blessed with material things by God a sin? Since u said a christian(follower of God) shouldn't own material things. Then if u say christians shouldn't own material possessions, u are invariably saying its a crime for God to bless people with such. U need to see a shrink. |

Please could you refer us to verses in the Bible where Christians were asked to not sell or buy the above listed items. Or are you just trying to force people to tow your line if thoughts only. |

This is why I always say muslimsand Christians have many things in common which should be a cause for unity but politics and greed have made us to emphasise the differences over the similarities. All these things mentioned are prohibited in islam but when a Muslim governor decides to ban alchohol, people will start shouting that he wants to islamize the country. Lets accept and respect one another for peace to reign. Thanks. |

maniie:There is nothing like non alcoholic wine, is just a Nigerian way of describing a grape drink that doesn't contain alcohol, a wine is an alcoholic drink, take it or leave it, stop changing tins to suit ur argument. |

samally:Oh please, what nonsense are u saying, ur brother is in the habit of smoking indian hemp or ur sister is in the habit of sleeping around, but because u see a passage in the bible that says "judge not" ud look the other way while they both wallow in something detrimental to their well-being and negating God's word? U guys keep misinterpreting the bible. A passage in the bible says, train a child in the way of the lord and he shall not depart from it. Do u knw wat it means when God says men should judge not? Its to prevent sinfull people from judging the ones who got sin in them. Do u remember when some guys wanted to stone a woman because she sleeps around, then jesus said, he who is without sin should cast the first stone? None could, because they all had sin in them. 2tim 3vs16 says NLT version "All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful to teach us what is true and to make us realize what is wrong in our lives. It corrects us when we are wrong and teaches us to do what is right" 1 Like |

The original posts of the OP might be fair in all. For perfect walk with JESUS, you must count some things dung, immaterial and unimportant (Philippians 3:. A Christian who cannot give up something for GOD isn't ready for Heaven. Money, like many material things, is good but could also lead you to Hell owing to how much love and attention you sacrifice for it (1Timothy 6:10). However the weird doctrines that have followed the OP's are quite worrying. For those with good memory, not long ago watching television was labelled a sin by a popular Christian assembly, and it was a doctrine that mustered religious obedience from ardent followers for decades. What has become of the doctrine today? Even a day-old baby knows the answer. Without a doubt, poverty and illiteracy, two deadly forces, have influenced heavily the doctrines of many Nigerian churches. I knew a pastor who refused to approve the use of modern musical equipment in the student fellowship arm of his local assembly. He told them it would promote a worldly lifestyle, and that they should only focus on prayers and forget music. As always, he would later change his mind for reasons only known to him. Because some preachers cannot afford suit, they speak against wearing good suits; because some could not afford good shoes, they told their members that GOD had told them not to wear shoes; because some couldn't afford television, they made it a church doctrine; because some cannot afford air conditioning in their auditorium, they criticise churches that have it in their halls; because some couldn't get higher education, they discourage their members from pursuing higher education; because some cannot afford good cars, they see luxury car owners as sinners...on and on and on. Brethren, work on your character, walk in love, purge yourself of the fruits of the flesh, and grow the fruits of the Spirit (Galatians 5:19-24; Romans 8:1). Many Nigerian Christians like the ignorant Peter (Acts 10:10-15) need to have their minds renewed in order to experience the life JESUS paid for on the Cross (Colossians 2:14). Are you saved? Today is the day of salvation. Tomorrow may never come for you...decide now! |
