I love this quotation and the way you applied it qua!

If eating will make you a glutton then stop eating!
If looking lustfully will make you sin pluck out your eyes!
If urges will make you fornicate castrate yourself!
If riches will make you loose God's kingdom then throw away all your assets! Luke 18:18-23

Primase:


Eventually you have to kill yourself because every part of your body can make you sin.

Salvation is not for man to determine but for God who sent Christ to die for our sins.
You are doing exactly what the Pharisees were all about,an external show of holiness.
The world had condemned the criminal on the cross but he strolled into eternity

kushe:


Oga Luke 7:34 is very clear.
Our saviour hung out with sinners at a tavern probably and was called out by the Pharisees of the day.
He made all things and without him was anything made that was made.
The creator visited earth and drank of its produce only to be criticized by his creation.
Christianity has deviated from the bible to just what the Pharisees we're about,rules and regulations.

Give strong drink [as medicine] to him who is ready to pass away, And wine to him whose life is bitter. Let him drink and forget his poverty And no longer remember his trouble.

This fake pastor looter again, alcohol that God forbid this one come dey quote bible verses here. Wonder shall never end

MrChriz:

If someone drinks and and forget he is poor and no longer remembers his troubles, dat simply means the person is drunk na.��....
Maybe drunkness is not a sin after all(jst thinking out loud)���
Anyways I stopped taking alcohol years back, I don't like the after feeling of taking it..

jesusjnr2020:
You just exposed your ignorance of the Truth with the bolded statement. Don't repent and defend God's interest as the thief on the cross did, but continue in your iniquity and see if you go smell eternity yourself.

God bless.

glutonny can't lead u to commit sin but alcohol can lead u to commit sin. Glutonny can be dangerous to ur own health only but excess alcohol can be dangerous to yourself and others around u.

Smoking igbo is also not sin...abi? No portion of the bible says smoking igbo, taking heroin or sniffing crack is a sin. In fact no where in the bible was child abuse explicitly mentioned as a sin...sin does not stop at the "thou shalt nots" in the bible, what ever is not of faith is sin!

Primase:


Very GOOD! However, don't refer to those who enjoy taking it moderately as sinners

Wierdceo:


That part where he said "God created alcohol to gladen the hearts of men" really got me laughing hard. I like this man o.

Although this is a Christian platform but that doesn't undermine the fact that unbelievers will cross this. Believer or unbeliever, this information is very important for your soul. No one is above God, and His commands are ultimate. Pls, read this till the end for your good and that of others. Thanks as you comply.

For you that does not believe in God, Jesus Christ or anything Christianity, always bear in mind that you did not create yourself, and that the body you live in will give away one day. When this happens, your soul will be required of you by your maker. What will you tell God about how you lived your life here on earth?

How would you feel if your creation goes against your will, do you ever stop to think about how God feels whenever you discard His commands and disregard His existence.

...For we are but sojourners here in earth..
The life we live on earth is only a fraction of eternity.

Romans 14:10; ..for we shall all stand before the Judgement Seat Of Christ..

The word escape means to break free from confinement or control. The context of this subject suggests a dangerous situation that needs to be fled from. It also an unpleasant and precarious situation that needs to be separated from.
The Bible is replete with clear warnings to mankind to flee from destruction. In the days preceding Noah, God saw that the afflictions of men were only evil continually and would have destroyed them without notification, bit the righteous and holy God would not do that rather. He decided to inform righteous Noah of his s intentions and used him to prepare the Ark to save his family and preserve all species of animals from the wrath of God and the destruction that was to be unleashed on that generation.
Gen 6:5-7
God eventually destroyed man and all living creatures that remained on earth. This is a salutary lessons to all the humans in this generation to repent of their evil deeds. The rain of Noah's dispensation that destroyed nearly every soul alive then, came suddenly on the people and they could not escape. The people were eating, drinking, marrying, making merriment and doing all sort of things as is being done today until the floods came and destroyed them.
Matt 24:38-39
God also revealed to Abraham of his intentions to destroy Sodom and Gomorrah, to enable him intercede for the city. The result was the deliverance of Lot and his family from the great inferno.
Gen 19:17
If God did not spare the generation of No ah and the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah because of their sins, please note that he will not spare this generation, including sinners, no matter the excuses.
2 pet 2:5-9
Nearly all the adult Israelites that left Egypt by the Lord's mighty hand could not enter the promise Land because of sin and rebellion against God.
Sin in man makes sacrifices abominable and unacceptable to God. Sin in man makes him a willing companion of unquenchable fire of hell. In all dispensations, those who sinned against God without genuine repentance recieved their doses of varying degree of punishment.
Heb 10: 28-29
Jesus died to save man from the unbearable and sore judgement and the accompanying interminable suffering that will be the lot of billions of people. Yet, man has shunned this great work of grace and has chosen to bear the consequences instead.
Dear friends, it must be clearly stated that more than 95% of adults what are dying today end up in hell fire because of one sin or the other.
Be rest assured that if you shun the instruction of the Lord which says, 'strive to enter in at the strait gate', you can never say no to the command of the devil in hell(with great torments and pain), whose interest you serve as an unrepentant sinner on earth.

We must therefore be courageous to cut off those things that lead us to condemnation in hell fire, no matter how dear they may appear to us materially, physically and spiritually. Let no one be deceived, unquenchable fire with worms that can never die, awaits all sinners.
If you do need to wish to face eternal suffering in hell fire, please ensure that you escape from the following; adultery, fornication, worldliness, unforgiving spirit, anger, malice, strife, bitterness, fear, envy, list, pornography, lying tongue, deceit, fraud, extortion, covetousness, pride, wickedness, ungodly dressing such as tight fitting and skimpy dresses, body exposing dresses, perming of the hair, dying of the hair, wearing of attachments and unnatural hair/extensions. In summary, anything that's not your hair, or changes the natural state of your hair.
For validation, check this scriptures: Rom 1:28-32, Gal 5:19-21, Zephaniah 1:8.
Along with this, you must desist from painting the body, nails, toes lips, tattoos, bleaching the skin, wearing extra lashes, etc. For validation, see:
Prov 7:10, Jeremiah 4:30.
No one knows his or her time, if you want to escape the damnation of your soul in hell fire, please ensure you put off all adornments ( earrings, necklaces, Leg/hand chains, Bangles, beads, etc) For validation, see:
Deut 7:25-26, Isaiah 3:18-23, Zeph 1:18, Zeph 1:8
You may want to argue about this, but this is not the time to win any argument. It is a time to wait on the Lord and hear him speak to you.
All those who wrestle scriptures to justify their lustful desires do so to their destruction. The exhaustive list applies to both men and women. Husband's tell your wives and wives do suit.
We must all note that we have a creator, 'God Almighty'. We are not our own, we all have destinies to fulfill on earth in line with God's will. It is not the will of God that any man should perish. If you have doubts, pray earnestly and seek the face of God to reveal to you, and He will.
There is a general new trend of wordiness in the church today. People can wear anything (including sensitive parts exposing clothes), drink anything (including strong drinks), dance to any tune of music, allow choreography, immoral dances and different forms of unholy amusement on the pulpit. Yet, the Ministers of the gospel do not see anything wrong in them.

People tatoo their bodies, get funny and demonic haircuts, women wear trousers and seductive tights and yet the churches as well as their Ministers are very comfortable with them. All that matters is the prosperity of the people and the increased number of excited unrepentant sinners for the gain of the ministers.
Please note that hell fire awaits you if you fall into the above indicated sins, whether as a member or as a minister that allows them in your church.
If you are in a ministry where salvation, sanctification and Holiness if individual members and the entire church is not emphasized, then you are an unprofitable servant already on a dark tunnel to hell fire. Matt 25:30
Fortunately, there is a way out. As long as you are alive, it is never too late to amend your ways.

Escape for your life by leaving that ungodly and antichrist church and look for a place where righteous living, inward and outward purity is emphasized continuously.
If you continue to attend that gathering where you do not need to repent despite your sins, you are willingly sinning against God, and the result is judgement without mercy (hell fire).
Heb 10:36-27

If you really want to escape hell fire, please do the following:
1. Acknowledge that you are a sinner and that you cannot save yourself by yourself (pslm 32:5;51:1-5, Rom 3:23)

2. Identify your sins and confess them to God in repentance asking him to forgive you (Rom 10:9, James 5:16, 1John 1:9)

3. Repent of all your sins asking God for the grace to be holy (Ezek 14:6, Acts 2:38;3:19, Acts 8:22;17:30)

4. Determine not to go back to your sins (Dan 1:8, Phil 3:7-8, Rom 6:1-6)

5. Look for a Bible believing and Holiness preaching Church where biblical truths are preached without compromise (Acts 20:20, 26-27, 31-32, Rev 3:7-10)

6. Seperate from the world and worldliness for your spiritual development (2 Cor 6:14-18: Rev 18:4-5)
Thank you!

Feel free to ruminate over the message consecutively..it will profit your soul. Also share to your friends, family and colleagues. Our lives here in earth are 70- 100 if your strength can take you. But life after death is forever..eternity...

where will you spend yours?
Heaven or hell? No riches here on earth or city can be compared to the beauty of heaven, and no suffering here on earth can be compared to the pain and anguish of hell.
Make your choice now...Jesus or Satan!
It's a two way thing, there's no neutral ground.

I hope and pray that you will make the right choice..
Some years back, I would have spat at anyone that brought this kind of message my way, until I got a personal convinction from Jesus Christ Himself.
I also urge you brethren to pray for the baptism of the Holy Spirit. There's nothing more valuable than a exclusive walk with God.
Thanks again.

This fake pastor looter again, alcohol that God forbid this one come dey quote bible verses here. Wonder shall never end

kushe:


Please be explicit with the scriptures where God forbade alcohol.

kushe:


It made you laugh,but it is in the bible.
Religion is not faith.

sonofthunder:


To me, it will appear rhat you are ignorant of two very important things. First is the long term effect of gluttony on those who practice it, and certain negative character traits that are common to such people. I don't think you know enough to appreciate the position you are attempting to counter.


Modified
Besides the above point, you also insinuate that one can fall for a lesser sin (gluttony) if they are free of a bigger sin (drinking/drunkenness)

Primase:


And I hope what you call sin is not moderate beer/wine consumption? for your information, we now have beer with 0% alcohol but your pastor may subsequently say that the bitterness is a sin.
Below is alcohol-free Heineken beer.

sonofthunder:






God bless you sir....... I always enjoy your posts though. Stay blessed!!!

jesusjnr2020:
Do you have any idea drinking alcohol is the subject of discussion here, or you just want to show how far you've delved into its study?

A times it's good to keep silent if you're short of anything meaningful to say.

God bless.

Primase:


God bless you too. Please may I know why you are angry with me?

jesusjnr2020:
Why not? Check your comment if it made any sense or had anything to do with the topic of discussion here which is taking of alcohol.

Jones4190:

taking herbs is not a sin, the bible says he gives us herbs for our health

Paramountgift:
About this..the scriptures are figurative. Christ spoke in parables, he didn't necessarily mean to kill yourself inorder to serve him acceptably.

That's why He said in His word, ... My grace is sufficient for you. He has provided us with grace to desist from those evil vices that He has condemned.
By dying on the cross, Jesus has redeemed us with His blood, so now we can ask God for mercy and request that He wash us of every spot with His blood. But that doesn't mean we should keep sinning willfully.
There may come a time when it is too late.
..For man also knoweth not his time.

Ask God for help to refrain from those sins
..Come unto me all ye that labor and are heavy laden and I will give you rest...

It doesn't just end there, make up your mind and be determined to stop committing those sins. When God sees your sincere heart, He will help you be perfect.
As absurd as it may sound, we actually need God's help to please him. You can't please him by yourself from your head knowledge.

The same applies to sexual immorality, love for alcohol, anger, inward and outward worldliness as well as other vices. Pray and ask God for help, be determined to repent. Also try talking to a minister that believes in the gospel of Repentance, Holiness and Righteousness. Only then will you be free.
