hbsilencer: Good day beloved friends, Its always a beautiful testimony when one accepts Christ based on an encounter without any preacher. Saul who later became the chiefest of the Apostles had such an experience. He usually spoke of this experience in his witnessing.
So let's hear more on this matter. Thanks. Happy new year!
Praise be to you
May you be joined with thy lord at the earliest and depart earth at the very moment for thy lords embrace , amen .
I will speak of my experience
My neighbour is a priest , his wife who is part of the choir and is a dedicated servant of lord
She has been making a effort to bring the light of jesus into young boys
Oneday in the evening after service in church she commanded me in jesus name to receive his long lasting grace
She took me in her embrace in jesus name and kept shouting oh jesus oh jesus in great fervor
My whole world trembled , I trembled , she trembled , and I lost control and she screamed his name out ohhhhhh jessssssssus and then I saw a bright light , stars exploded in my mind , uncontrollable pleasure swept my body , as I felt the doors to the heaven open and I am right in heaven with angels at my side as screams of oooh jesus ooooh jesus harder harder , In jesus name harderrrrrr rang in my ear untill I fainted .
alBHAGDADI: There's so much panic out there concerning the COVID-19 vaccines which some quarters are afraid of, not only because vaccines could affect their health but because some are linking it with the Mark of the Beast spoken of in the Bible.
This article is positioned to teach people how not to be afraid of the times we are in despite the multiple controversial stories out there. It is also to teach people what they can do to prevent themselves from receiving the mark of the beast in whatever form it comes in.
Kindly exercise patience in reading this article because it is lengthy but filled with good information and Good News.
Let me start by explaining what satan wants to do in the end times which I believe we already are in, but because we are eating, drinking and getting married like the people of Noah's time, we do not know that the Ark is ready and the flood is coming.
Matthew 24:37-39 KJV 37 But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be. 38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, 39 And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
What satan wants to do is to imitate God and be like God just as he bragged, saying, "I will ascend above the heights of the clouds, I will be like the Most High." (Isaiah 14:14 KJV). He has since been trying to perfect his plans which we are seeing unfolding bit by bit.
God has angels and humans who worship and serve him. Satan envies that and wants the same for himself. He has succeeded in deceiving some angels who have now become his demons who do his bidding. He now wants humans just as God has humans.
Who are the humans who belong to God? They are those who believe Jesus Christ is their Lord and Saviour that died for their sins. Their belief in Jesus has made them sons of God.
John 1:12 KJV But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:
They immediately become born again when they believe in Jesus. To be born again is to be born by the spirit of God. Our parents have given birth to us. God now gives birth to us which, in other words, is Him adopting us into his family through the spirit.
Romans 8:9 9 But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.
Romans 8:16 KJV 16 The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God:
The above verses and many more in the Bible proves that God has children here on earth and we Christians that believe in Jesus are his children. Stan wants his own children too and that is the essence of the mark of the beast which he will issue at the end time.
When most people think of the mark of the beast otherwise known as 666, they think of a chip. This looks likely to be true. But whatever it is, it is something that will separate you from God forever, make you a reprobate. It is something that I believe will alter your DNA and make you hate God and lose your sense or the fear of God. This thing will have to get into you to effect that.
Now, there are three kinds of people in the world today. We have Christians, sons of Belial (satan) and normal humans. Christians are those who have the spirit of God in them due to the believe in Jesus Christ. The sons of Belial are those who worship satan in various forms (Deuteronomy 13:13). These ones have evil spirits dwelling inside them. Normal humans are those who I will describe as empty shells who have not the Holy Spirit nor evil spirits inside of them but are still under the influence of sin and satan.
It is those empty shell satan is after. He wants them for himself. God also wants them that's why He sent His son Jesus to die for their sins that they may be saved. That's why Christians are tasked to preach to them and save them.
In the end time, satan will make the 666 mandatory in the world. Without the mark, you won't be able to fly to other countries, enter certain places, go to work or school, buy and sell etc. You will just be a dead man walking.
That mark will be received by many of the humans who are empty shells. They will receive it because they allowed themselves to be fooled by influential people like celebrities. We all know how the protests of October last year gained momentum after celebrities supported it. Once celebrities start posting pictures showing them taking the mark (which won't be advertised as 666), many celebrity worshippers will rush to take it thinking it's cool. That's when Christians will start to warn against it to the anger of satan who will wage war against them and behead many of them.
Now, as a Christian, can you take the mark of the beast? The answer is capital NO. You can't take the 666 because you have already been sealed with the mark of God. You have the Holy Spirit inside of you and you are a child of God. Remember Jesus said of his sheep that "they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand" (John 10:28). That Holy Spirit has sealed us unto the day when God through Jesus will come and redeem us.
Ephesians 4:30 KJV 30 And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.
Even when destruction comes upon the earth, it can't affect Christians because they have the seal of God on their forehead.
Revelation 9:4, KJV And it was commanded them that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree; but only those men which have not the seal of God in their foreheads.
Satan who has been trying to imitate God will create his own seal which he will give to men. Only those who have that seal or mark will be able to buy or sell.
Revelation 13:16-17 16 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: 17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name.
But can Christians receive the mark of the beast? No. Mind you, there are people who call themselves Christians but are not. These are those who were born into a Christian home but never had faith in Jesus, or churchgoers who didn't believe in Jesus. Many don't know that believe in Jesus has to be done in the appropriate way otherwise it is not believe in Jesus but believe in self.
1 John 5:10-12 KJV 10 He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God hath made him a liar; because he believeth not the record that God gave of his Son. 11 And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. 12 He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life.
The above passage says those who believed Jesus have the witness (the Holy Spirit) inside of them. But up to a billion people claim to believe in Jesus. However, the same passage revealed how to know those who truly believe in Jesus and those who don't. It says does who don't believe God has given Christians eternal life through Jesus do not have the Holy Spirit. These are those who say YOU CAN LOSE YOUR SALVATION. They have called God a liar as stated in the passage. They say God lied when he said he gave us eternal life. Eternal life never ends and can never be lost. If it could be lost, then God lied when he called it eternal which is never ending. I'm glad I don't believe God lies, which is why I CAN NEVER LOSE MY SALVATION. And this is why the above passage says such people like me have the Holy Spirit and belong to Jesus.
Romans 8:9 KJV 9 ...Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.
With the above established, it is clear that Christians can never take the mark of the beast no matter what. They will be beheaded, punished and made to go through tribulations as stated by Jesus for their faith. Jesus also said it that it won't be possible for any false christ including the antichrist to deceive the elect.
Matthew 24:24 “For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.”
Jesus also promised that his sheep will never follow any other voice but will flee from such.
John 10:4-5 KJV 4 And when he putteth forth his own sheep, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him: for they know his voice. 5 And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him: for they know not the voice of strangers.
These and many more have shown that Christians will never receive the mark of the beast. They will become bold to preach the gospel during the Great Tribulation and get many humans saved. This will anger satan to kill them. That is the great tribulation Jesus spoke about.
So, clearly, the only way to guarantee that you will never receive the mark of the beast is to believe Jesus gives eternal life and that with him you can never lose your salvation. Anything asides that will not work. If you think you can enter God's Kingdom by hiding from the antichrist and his 666 when you are not a child of God, it won't work. Satan will tempt and frustrate humans to the point that many will fall for him But God's elects won't. Why not become God's elect today by accepting Jesus as the one to save you?
Now, a school of thought believes Christians would be raptured before the antichrist. That's a big lie not found in the Bible but only in the movie Left Behind and in the lips of false prophets. Read the thread below to see that Christians will be very much around when the antichrist and his 666 will be around.
The antichrist is against Christ and Christians who are his representative on earth. If Christians are raptured before he arrives, what will he be against? Can you see how rapture before the antichrist makes no sense? Read the thread below.
6digitscomrade: lol how can u gather corruption data and in the same breathe say u can’t prosecute all of u are just belligerents, unpatriotic and clever by half self righteous corrupt inglorious bastards!!!
Intelligent observation by you sir
I think they are part of the same corrupt system .
They are just making some useless noise for now to ally public attention but in reality they are hand in glove with corruption themselves.
Hollawayn05: Was shocked to found dis sheded Snake skin inside a hole just close to my pen, had to carefully draw it outside and was dam long, this isn't my first but dis particular one has a prominent head and the eyes and fang position was so clear
film3four: Railway transformation has hit Nigeria. For the first time in almost 60yrs, Nigeria railway is getting a massive makeover. This is a new Nigeria.
kingxsamz: That's because religion thrives on fear. These pastors want to do whatever they want without anyone criticizing them. It's bad for business lol.
Mumu pastor , are the ordinary people less human than him and his types.
If men of God are saints why fear criticism , especially when they themselves indulge in ungodly acts
Are the commandments of God not for them , can they indulge in sin with impunity and without criticism.
Everybody serves god what is so special about pastors , they are not doing any favours , they are paid for it and enjoy the luxuries they get in the name of serving God.
simpledoty: Fellow nairalanders, Please, I need help.
I used to be a play boy, doing it for fun not knowing the consequences of my actions.
I have had countless heart broken, over 500 ladies. Promised and failed and disappointed many women although I never promised anyone marriage but always tricked them with a lovely relationship.
Now everything in my life seems backwards. Some girls have threatened to curse me in the past.
Now no money to even buy soap unlike before where I make over 700k monthly.
How can I set myself free and move forward in life?
casdoruche: Hausa are not FULANI. Fulani is a minority group. Hausa is a major group. Fulani knowing this now call themselves Hausa/Fulani. The average Fulani doesn't see himself equal to an HAUSA MAN.
All emirs are Fulani in a hausa dominated community. Fulani has not only brainwashed the northern Hausa people but dominted them by using religion to establish their semi-god status.
Furthermore, they also dominate intellectually by making Education accessible to themselves using the glorified elite positions they occupy. They go abroad to get educated.
A cycle of dominance preserved by a minority. The north cannot develop until they understand that their perpetual poverty, ignorance and illiteracy favours the minority Fulani.
sweetmelanin: This is the point in your write-up I agree with the most, blacks are stuck in the same vicious cycle of thinking: Degrees/Masters/PhD = Good jobs = Wealth.
We all come here the same way doing the same thing... you hear business analysts are making money, so you all go get business analysis certification.. you hear nurses are high earners so everyone rushes to go study nursing.
Indians are not afraid to get their hands dirty.. they are business minded, fantastic entrepreneurs.. they dont come abroad with an individualistic mindset only to end up cleaning bums in hospitals whilst paying extortionate fees for masters programs.. ...rather, they help each other in each other's businesses... they work collectively and pull each other up.. they house each other for free in their early struggling days, they join money together to establish themselves without falling out due to greed and selfishness...
That's the difference between Indians and Nigerians.
That's only the tip of the iceberg
Around 155 Indian companies are present in USA and employ more the 125000 Americans directly and invested more than 22 billion dollars directly into US economy.
Even in Nigeria there are 100 + Indian companies who employ the 2nd largest no of workers in the industrial sector after the federal government.
