Living The Life That Pleases GOD Part 2 by Clementoons: 7:01am On Mar 12, 2021 |
a life that pleases GOD is a life every christain must posses,a true christain must love GOD and have faith in him, obeying his word, doing good works,carrying out the word in action,preaching the word,obeying your parents,authorities and follow every rules and regulation of this country even when others are violating. You cannot say you love GOD and you still have an unforgiven heart,let your heart free from every conscience that may seems to judged you in heart,then right from this moment, make your way right before GOD and live an holy life everyday, 'follow peace with all men and holiness without which no man shall see the LORD [hebrews 12:14]then, when you live that pleases him that would paved way for his blessing in our life with full assurrance, you cannot enjoy GOD if you are not born again, you must ensure you take the steps of salvations and then posses the fruit of repentance right from onset. FEAR GOD AND KEEP HIS COMMANDMENT,AND ALWAYS BE MINDFUL OF HIS PRESENCE EVERYWHERE YOU GO. |

Clementoons:There you go again convolution the very teachings of Jesus Christ. According to Jesus Christ, those who abide in Him are those who accept(trust) His teaching (not the doctrines and traditions of men) and obey them. Obedience of your parents, authorities etc as you listed there are not included as part of His law. Matter of fact, anyone who comes to Jesus Christ thinking that Christ calls His own to obey parents etc is thoroughly deceived. The very same Jesus Christ tells you that He came not to bring peace but a sword, to put at odds, fathers and their sons, daughters and their mothers, daughter-in-laws and their parent-in-laws. Jesus Christ started that your very enemies will be those in your own family. So how can you state that a true Chrstian is one who obeys parents? |

He that loveth is life rather than the things of GOD, Is going to lose it, but he that forsake all other things for the things of christ without caring about his life will find it. For it is better one to deny by one's parent, mentor and loved ones for christ than christ deny one. I pray may GOD help us. Amen |

Clementoons:I am afraid you are not speaking the language of Jesus Christ at all by your claim above. Below is the commandment that Jesus Christ gave His followers... Are you certain that what you trust in are the teachings of Jesus Christ Himself? Clementoons:I am afraid you are not even in a position to ask that question, since you have shown so far that Jesus Christ's own teachings do not seem to agree with your person. Yes, Jesus Christ calls you to love your neighbor even as you love yourself but He never commanded you to set your neighbor as gods unto your person, not even your parents. He in fact states that if you want to become worthy of Him, you should be willing to abandon your parents, family, children, for Him. His apostles were commanded to do the exact same, and they did just that. Why can't you? Clementoons:If what you are trying to teach others are nothing but teachings that are against the very commandments of Jesus Christ i.e. AntiChrist idea... then what good is your claim to preach the gospel when what you preach are lies that have nothing to do with Jesus Christ? |
Re: Living The Life That Pleases GOD Part 2 by Clementoons: 4:20pm On Mar 12, 2021 |
sorry about that, but what i was trying to say in essence is this' when you fear GOD, that has power thathas power to destroy both the soul and body in hell, so you not to fear no man but respect others according to your point you are trying to buttress, also remember you treat other equal the ways you treat yourself. Because they will hate us the true christain for CHRIST's SAKE |
Re: Living The Life That Pleases GOD Part 2 by Kobojunkie: 4:25pm On Mar 12, 2021 |
Clementoons:The cliche saying "Fear God" is overused at this point, don't you think? The same is said, the world over, by Christians who go about living according to how they want to as well. What does it mean to fear God? As Jesus Christ said, it means to accept(Trust in the word of God) and obey the Teachings of God through Jesus Christ... that is what Jesus Christ said those who are His followers will do. Jesus Christ said that the world will hate His followers, not those who call themselves Christians but do not worship Him, Jesus Christ in truth and indeed. |

Kobojunkie:Now i get your point mister, ever since i read the word i have always skip that part of the scripture . But glory be to JESUS , who used matt 10 and you to guage up my spiritual state today, for you may have been in the LORD ever since, i am just a babe in the LORD so i always keen on maintaining my stand in the LORD. Because this world is now full of false prophets coming in the name of the LORD. |
Re: Living The Life That Pleases GOD Part 2 by Kobojunkie: 4:43pm On Mar 12, 2021 |
Clementoons:Yes, there are many false teachings out there, and Jesus Christ warned us against listening to such teachings since they nullify the power of God in our lives when we accept them instead of His own teaching. ** substituted from another Bible translation for better understanding of what is impacted The doctrines and traditions(commandments) of men are lies and not of God. They rob those who say they believe in Jesus Christ of the very power of God, rendering their worship meaningless. These are lies meant to keep people from believing the Truth of God, Jesus Christ, and the world today is indeed filled with false teachers and prophets, all of them professing their lies in the name of Jesus Christ, just as Jesus Christ said they would. The Power of God is in the very teachings of Jesus Christ... and these teachings are found written of in the 4 Gospels. When one is grounded in these teachings, accepting(trusting) and obeying them, then the Spirit of God, as Jesus Christ said, will abide in such a one, and lead such a person into all Truths that belong to Jesus Christ. |

Clementoons:I use any translation that presents the teaching in the easiest English translation possible. I prefer to read from the Easy-to-Read Version(ERV) of the Bible, but when I post, I choose from a list of translations..... ERV, ESV, NIV, KJV...depending on my audience. FYI It is in the teachings of Jesus Christ that we are called to Trust God in, not in the translation of the bible. |
Re: Living The Life That Pleases GOD Part 2 by Clementoons: 5:12pm On Mar 12, 2021 |
that very sure, it does not matter about the translation the translation ,what matter really most is about the way you hear the word and the way the holy spirit ministered the word to you that is the vital reason why he sent his holy spirt to us to be our guide in all things we do before we Embark on any work he comman as said in ACTS 1 VS 4,8 And, being assembled together with them,commanded them that they should not depart from jerusalem but wait for the promise of the father which saith he ye have heard of me.But ye shall receive power,after that the holy ghost is come upon you and ye shall be witnesses unto both in jerusalem,and in all judaea and in unto the uttermost part of the earth. so in everything, make sure you trust in his word and keep his commandment and fear him above every other things. As for me, i fear nobody except from GOD my father in heaven, and there is no other father than himself |

What does it mean to "believe"? As Jesus Christ said, it means to understand the Teachings of God through Jesus Christ... that is what Jesus Christ taught those who are His followers will do if they want to obey Christ. Because one can not obey that which one does not understand. |
Re: Living The Life That Pleases GOD Part 2 by Kobojunkie: 6:06pm On Mar 12, 2021 |
budaatum:Let us examine the very teachings of Jesus Christ in order to understand what it means to believe in Him, as He said to do in John 3 Again, in another verse, we learn that those who believe, in fact are baptized. So, according to Jesus Christ, those who believe in Him and are baptized are saved from the condemnation of sin(Death), and gifted instead with eternal life. Searching through His teachings still, we find in the the passage below, that in order to obtain eternal life, the eating of the body and flesh of Jesus Christ is already necessary.
Putting all that together, we can extrapolate to believe in Jesus Christ, one believes His claim of who He says He is, is baptized, and also eats of His flesh and drinks of His blood, in order to be saved. |
