Let me correct you sir, because it is articles like this that point fingers at the church in order to destroy us, but it profers no solution at the end of the tirade.


You lied. There were evidences of church meetings in the Acts of the Apostles. The 120 disciples were in the Upper room praying. It was not someone's house. Ananias and Saphira dressed up to go to church and lie to the Holy Spirit, and Peter was the minister that day. Ushers carried their dead bodies out. There was a large church in those days that the apostles appointed seven deacons.

About denominations, the persecution of the early church caused people like Stephen to run to Samaria. a new ministry was born there. I believe the persecution was a grand plan by God to scatter the church all over the world, beyond Jerusalem.


Well, John the beloved Apostle used it in III John vs 2. I wish you above all things that though mayest prosper.
Remember that John said that it was the same things they heard from Jesus that they were declaring. I John 1vs 1-4.

When has old testament ceased being a part of the scriptures?
Of course he is. That is why you are not dead already. John 10vs10. I have come that you may have life more abundantly.
Anything unscriptural you find today in a church means that the original still exists. There are still people getting it right. You know that too well. Stop generalising.
Just attend RCCG'S HolyGhost Congress any last friday of your choosing, or attend Shiloh in Canaanland. Thousands are still giving their lives to christ.

That you are not experiencing it in your assembly does not mean it does not happen again. Visit RCCG's redemption camp for HolyGhost congress. What you will see will shock you. We are in the last days and these are the days of massive outpouring of His Spirit. Its happening.

God meets us at the level of our expectation. May be you go to church as a routine. You will never experience that touch of God. I'm about to enter the bathroom and prepare for church, and I'm doing it with expectation of what new thing God will do in my life today. Church is not a routine for me.

Please next time, dont generalise things about the church of God. We are marching forward, and the gates of hell will never prevail against us.
Thank you.

have u read Karl Marx' write up on d aforementioned quote? I guess not. When u read it, perhaps u will see d connection and then we cn actually get to talk but before then, I choose not to answer ur question.

einsteino:



ok u r more catholic than me, perhaps more than the pope too. it appears this is just my word against urs. should i make a video recording when i go for evening mass today, when the announcer would call for tithe in the presence of the priest? would that be convincing enough?

yeah church is nonsense. well life after death is a topic covered extensively but COVERTLY in the bible. you need to have read the whole book to understand it. and this is how it goes. there are two components to a man. his flesh and his spirit. in actuality there is no such thing as dying. what you are doing is transforming. now the flesh dies but the spirit is energy and energy does not die and can neither be destroyed and in that energy is your consciousness and who you are. the flesh is simply a hard drive that the spirit projects your consciousness into. so your flesh is just meat and is useless. you are your spirit and not your flesh. so you when your flesh dies, your spirit returns to the spiritual realm to await the next deployment to earth. this is called reincarnation. you are born as a baby into a new body. so you return to earth again every 3rd or fourth generation.

Apina:

I guess u r a philosopher and ur rationalization of my submission is very much on point. I agree with u that there's a contradiction on my part if viewed from your perspective. I shall answer ur earlier question due to the fact that u hv fulfilled d sole requirement which I initially demanded. For Marx, religion is an illusion which should be discarded so as to enable man fulfill his potentials and act rightly. From d Op's write-up, my deduction rib cages his argument as an off shoot of the Marxist argument and which informed my having to quote Karl Marx before marshalling out my criticism. Succinctly put, all am saying is that his argument which is a more subjective approach to Karl Marx *religion as the opium of the society* does not fulfill d philosophical background of objectivism and thus should b treated as nothing more than an appeal to emotion spurning from a lack of basic understanding of the subject matter. Hope u see d connection. Tnx for ur criticism though

Religion makes us weak, it makes us believe things that are not real, it makes us fear, it makes us feel guilt, religion is what sets our limits, thank God we have science, we will all be dead by now... religion can't cure your cancer, malaria etc... religion in NIGERIA has turned to an OCCULT.

But will there be a consciousness in man when he returns to show that he had lived in the past? Or does the transformation wipe out past memories?

Sorry sir. I dont do Dake's bible concordance debate, where it is obvious you got what you wrote above. The personal encounter I have with Jesus is enough for me.

Shwarz:


You may quote verses all you want to favour your point but you cant deny the fact that a huge, disturbing amount of truth lies in what he said. You have quoted single verses like every other pastor out there to favour your point thereby blindsiding your self on purpose from the main point and truth. This today is the current problem of the church today. Have you ever asked yourself why there are so many churches in Nigeria today and yet very little kindness,righteousness, and true spirit filled worship. Instead, we have increasing wickedness, ritualism, occultism, corruption, embezzlement, and worldliness and i'm not even talking about in the world, i am talking about INSIDE the CHURCH... BE WISE!!!

[b]currently in this fallen state of man, everything is wiped out or suppressed. however there are a miniscule number of people who are allowed to tap back into certain skills of past life because they will be needed in this life. such people are called child prodigy's. like you can meet a 2 year old who plays the drums or the guitar or a piano like the best professionals have ever played it and they were not taught. however when the kingdom of heaven is established on earth, those who make it into that kingdom will first of all not be dying like chicken like the rest of the population will be. they will be able to live to a thousand or so years and then they will transform to the spirit world. and when they return they will return with their complete consciousness. nothing will be forgotten. they will return as they left. however for the rest of the population who dont make it ? they will still live to 60-90 years and when they return they will return like blank cheques and will have to re-learn everything. see, heaven on earth ( which heaven will be on earth ) has numerous benefits of which i have just named two. longevity and never forgetting your consciousness when you return.[/b]

fyneboi79:
First of all I don't want to believe or dwell in all the bible stories of what will become of people when they die. The heaven and hell stories cos I can't imagine how a father will condemn His children for living their lives enjoying the good things he created. You enjoy the beautiful women He created,it is called fornication. You drink palm wine,it is called drunkenness or being given to wine. You smoke a natural plant(weed) which we were commanded to consume,it is called irresponsible conduct. I really get confused as to why create all these and then condemn man for its consumption. Where is d freewill ? So all these Heaven /Hell thing is confusing.
