Why is jiggaz booking so much space?

If there is anything like god's will we would know. We would not need an epistle on nairaland to debate over it undecided

Many people think: "Saved just by simply believing and not by doing God's will and His works? That is too cheap a gospel. Jesus Himself said in Matthew 7:21 “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven.""

This is the TRUTH. Without doing God's will, no one shall enter the kingdom of heaven.

But such people who quote this verse will never tell you what exactly the will of God is or what the works are that He wants us to do. At best, they say it is keeping the Law and doing good, but "the Law is not of faith" and "without faith it is impossible to please God." According to Galatians 5:4:-"For if you are trying to make yourselves right with God by keeping the law, you have been cut off from Christ! You have fallen away from God’s grace."

But do we really for one moment think that our heavenly Father would make His will and His work that He wants us to do that are so crucial to our salvation vague in any way? Certainly not!

So what is God's will? What are the works that God wants us to do? Some people asked our Saviour Jesus this question in John 6. No better answer or explanation of God's will and His works that we must do than that which comes from our Saviour Jesus Himself!

28 "Then they said to Him, “What shall we do, that we may work the works of God?” 29 "Jesus answered and said to them, “This is the work of God, that you believe in Him whom He sent."

Again, in the same John 6, Christ tells us plainly what God's will is:

39 "This is the will of the Father who sent Me, that of all He has given Me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up at the last day. 40 And this is the will of Him who sent Me, that everyone who sees the Son and believes in Him may have everlasting life; and I will raise him up at the last day.”

Believers, according to our Lord Jesus Christ, this is the work of God that we must do: believe in our Lord Jesus Christ.

This is God's will according to our Lord Jesus Christ: "that everyone who sees the Son and believes in Him may have everlasting life; and I will raise him up at the last day.”

For the New Covenant believer, believing in our Saviour Jesus Christ is obedience. When the believing is right, right living will follow. We GET to do God's work. Under the New covenant, there is only the obedience of faith, not the Law. The Law is not of faith and without faith, it is impossible to please God.

Our salvation in Christ is a finished work. For all who truly believe, there is nothing for us to do -from our being called to Christ (see John 6:44- Our Abba Father called us) to our bodily redemption (the Rapture) in Him; yet we do exploits because "it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me."

Believe Right and you will Live Right.

SHALOM!

If you investigate my Topics, you will find that I quote MATTHEW 7:21 considerably, and I usually include the full context, from verse 12 through 29, or at the very least, from verse 21 through 29.

(I do.not do so now, because the browser I am using will surely mess up the post, if I try to paste anything in.)

When you do not mention that Lord YAHSHUA said RIGHT THERE what "THE WILL OF GOD" is, you are just DECEIVING PEOPLE.

HEARING HIS SAYINGS AND DOING THEM IS THE WILL OF GOD.

The teachings of PAUL are NOT the WILL OF GOD: they are riddled with LIES- such as: "THE LAW IS NOT OF FAITH," and, "THERE IS NO COMMANDMENT THAT GIVES LIFE." He was a MADMAN, and a LIAR, trying to COVER UP THE REAL GOSPEL.

If you don't know that, you don't know THE WILL OF GOD yourself.
Take your satanism out of here biko.

Thers's a false gospel going around the world in this end time that all you need to make heaven is to believe in Jesus and that's all. This gospel is dangerous. Lord let your mercy prevail.

@ Jiggaz . Excellent your topic has heart !!

Fake Pastor Bronchitis Oaroloye,
I happily notice you are active in the Jokes section. Free advice - move your topics over to the jokes section !!

When will this fake pastor Bronchitis Oaroloye learn that you can not fool these Christians on Nairaland religious section. You display serious symptoms of Senile Dementia, Schizophrenia and Alzheimer's disease brought on by hatred. Heal your spirit fake pastor !!
One requirement to discuss the bible with this FAKE PASTOR Bronchitis Oaroloye is that you love fictional novels and are prepared to suspend reality and except fantasy ideas that were all generated by the use of hallucinogenic drugs.

Lets quickly look closer at this insane Satanic pastor and his lies ;
Fake pastor Bronchitis Oaroloye says here that, "The teachings of PAUL are NOT the WILL OF GOD: they are riddled with LIES- such as: "THE LAW IS NOT OF FAITH," and, "THERE IS NO COMMANDMENT THAT GIVES LIFE." He was a MADMAN, and a LIAR, trying to COVER UP THE REAL GOSPEL."

Lets simplify what this psycho is saying ;

1) He says that the teachings of PAUL are NOT the WILL OF GOD. This is a lie from the pits of hell.

This is the truth about Apostle Paul : Galatians 1:1 Paul, an apostle not sent from men nor through the agency of man, but through Jesus Christ and God the Father, who raised Him from the dead.

Acts 26:12-18 (More on Apostle Paul) "While so engaged as I was journeying to Damascus with the authority and commission of the chief priests, at midday, O King, I saw on the way a light from heaven, brighter than the sun, shining all around me and those who were journeying with me. "And when we had all fallen to the ground, I heard a voice saying to me in the Hebrew dialect, 'Saul, Saul, why are you persecuting Me? It is hard for you to kick against the goads.'(hard for him to go against what was provoking his attacks on the Christians). Readers do your own research carefully, there are more lies about this than truth.

2)This Psycho called the mighty Apostle Paul a LIER by saying, "they are riddled with LIES- such as: "THE LAW IS NOT OF FAITH,"
Fake pastor Bronchitis Oaroloye is the real LIER here as we shall soon see;

Here are some reasons why Apostle Paul is correct :
1. The law inflames sin (Rom 5:20) and the strength of sin is the law (1 Cor 15:56). Why would God want to stir up sin in your life?
2. The law condemns (2 Cor 3:9), yet there is no condemnation to those in Christ.
3. The law ministers death (2 Cor 3:7), but God wants you to enjoy abundant life.
4. Law and grace don’t mix. You are under grace, not law (Rom 6:14).
5. Living by the law will alienate you from Christ (Gal 5:4).
6. Living by the law is cheating on Jesus (Rom 7). Why would God do anything to encourage spiritual adultery?
7. We’re to live by faith but the law is not of faith (Gal 3:12). The law encourages us to depend on ourselves instead of Jesus.

What is the law that God writes on our hearts and minds?
A) It is not the law of Moses. As we saw in the last post, if God wrote the Ten Commandments on our hearts then Jesus died for nothing.
B) It is not a new and improved version of the law. It is not the new commands of Jesus or the New Testament. We cannot please God by keeping a new law any more than we could please him by keeping an old one.
C) It is not the knowledge of right and wrong that was bestowed upon us by Adam.

Jesus' law : The law of love
He said, "A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. (John 13:34)

Under the old law covenant, love was demanded from you. “Love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul, mind and strength.” But under the new covenant of grace, love is given to you – “As I have loved you” – and out of the overflow of Christ’s measureless love we are able to love others.

All this sounds good, but how does it happen?
God’s love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us. (Rom 5:5)
God abundantly pours his love into our hearts by giving us the Holy Spirit, a.k.a. the Spirit of Christ. Do you see the difference between the old and new?

3) finally we examine fake pastor Bronchitis Oaroloye's last statement He said this about Paul, "He was a MADMAN, and a LIAR, trying to COVER UP THE REAL GOSPEL."

Well judge for yourself now that you have more facts.
a) WHO IS REALLY THE MAD MAN ?
b) Who is really the liar ?
c)Who is the one covering up the real Gospel ?

I am trying my best to keep it simple so that fake pastor Bronchitis Oaroloye can learn from the Apostle he is determined to destroy. Apostle Paul can teach you more than you will ever know on your own.

701ecilana a spiritual warrior correctly told the Op the following; To Quote : "You are Satan disguised as light since Adam." And also "Satanists can only hide from those who don't know their ways."

To Quote an enlightened Nairalander, analice107 “Thanks for being here to help people know that this person is not of God.
I started suspecting him when he begin preaching against Apst Paul. Satan thought he had gotten Paul, but Paul escaped, he hasn't gotten over Paul's escape, and has been fighting to undermined him since.”

To Qoute SpeedndAccuracy, which explains part of Pastor Bronchitis Oaroloye’s mental absence "The simplicity of the gospel (the good news..new creation) is difficult for the human mind to comprehend."

To Quote a highly respected Niaralander, hoMegas on the rape comments made by this pastor, “May his "god" help him have daughters. He will serve as the defense council to their rapists, if they ever get raped
