My joy is that you believe in him, you'll never see a Christian that will strongly believe in muhamnad.. Baby Aishat husband doesn't worth emulating talkless of believing in him.

But you believe in him as your Messiah, even Muhammad while alive believe in Jesus as his Messiah. That's our joy too as Christians

Of cos Christians especially like are haters of Muslims. They are wired so by Paul in the letters he wrote to the Corinthians in Nigeria.

You have joy when we believe Jesus is the Messiah, son of Mary. But when we say Jesus is the slave of Allah and not son of God as stated in our texts you vex! Hypocrisy.

Both your Jesus and Allah are fa**. They are slave Masters of invading imperialists and Jihadists. They don't belong to Africa. They are two sides of the same coin. They are tools of divide and conquer.

Because after the sacrifice he said no more sacrifice to be made
AntiChristian:
I do believe in him but I don't believe in him as God or son of God or sharing divinity with God.

The Lord our God is one (Ahad), not three in one.

And what does the Lord need a son for?

1. To help him in what he can't do.

2. To represent him when he's not around.

3. To inherit him when he dies.

4. I really don't know why!

I can't imagine God having a son then sending same to be ritually sacrificed on the cross for others to be saved!

So why do we punish babalawo/dibia and their cohorts who commit similar killing for others to be saved from poverty, etc?

Have you all seen how Christian posts are without declaration. When I write about this, the hypocrite Seun will order his jobless mynd419 to delete my post. I don't know why they refused to ban me but they keep deleting my write-ups. If this post was concerning Islam, will these terrorists come here to write rubbish like daily untrust newspaper? If you don't ban me you must hear from me. Nairaland just like Nigerian government, you tell them the truth, they section you

That whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life.

Here are five ways to have faith in Jesus Christ

1) You need to seek Jesus Christ(hope) Holy Spirit( Righteousness)

2) You need to believe in His words and He as the only begotten Son of the most high God.

3) You need to receive Him into your body, heart and soul .

4) You need to have the love of Christ in you

5) You need to have patience of the Holy Spirit to cast away fear and doubt.

Feel free to drop your views, thoughts and ask questions



Faith or believe is simply mental accent to His promise.

In the Bible, faith refers to the cumulative works done in submission and obedience to the commandments of God. undecided

The world's definition of the word "faith" which assumes mental accent is not according to the Word of God. undecided

Yes, it is our joy that you believe in him as your Messiah. Wait Who's allah? Quran says There is No God except allah, how did you want us to believe in allah that is NOT God talkless of taking Jesus Christ as slave of allah? No one including muhammad ever heard directly from allah, you're serving a god (allah) that has eyes but couldn't see, you're serving a god that has mouth but couldn't talks

Okay how do you 'receive' Him according to jn 1:12

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:

To receive/accept Him entails trusting and obeying Him. Jesus Christ is a Law, the New Covenant agreement that God promised His people through His prophets. And the way you receive or accept a Law is to submit to and obey the Law. undecided

How do you obey this verse without mental assent?

Philemon 6

That the communication of thy faith may become effectual by the acknowledging of every good thing which is in you in Christ Jesus.

That verse was not given you by Jesus Christ and for good reason. Probably so that those whose hearts are still full of doubt can approach Him even in. undecided

Also bear in mind that Paul's letter to even Philemon was written to those who already believe, but Jesus Christ calls even those who do not believe to Himself. undecided

You mentally assented to what you know about you by reacting.

jimmynauty:

Your perception tho.
This has nothing to do my perception but the Truth of God.

1. From the Genesis, to Revelations, you are continually told that the only way to please God is through obedience of His commandments undecided

2. You are given examples of men who obeyed God's various commands and rules, and how each one of them when rewarded for it and you are also told of numerous men who chose disobedience and were punished for it. undecided

3. Then you are reminded that sin is disobedience, a choice made against God. And that those who obey God do so by faith, your first hint that faith has to do with obedience where sin is the opposite undecided

4. Then Jesus Christ came preaching the Gospel of the Kingdom of God, promising it only to those who obey. The same Jesus Christ also states that those who love Him are those who obey Him. Then He goes on to say that for those who abide in Him(trust and obey His teachings), He will abide in, and they will ask anything in His name and He will do it. Again liking the idea of faith which He preached to obedience of His commandments. undecided

.... I can go on but anyone who has really studied that book called the Bible, and gleaned the teachings of Jesus Christ will come away realizing that indeed Faith as spoken of in scripture has to do with obedience of the word of God and not some mental assent to ideas of a positive kind. undecided

Hebrews 11
1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

Let's dissect this definition of faith. Note substance/evidence. Give us the Greek meaning and the part of speech used.

For the umpteenth time, Hebrews 11 does not give you a definition of faith but instead a description of the place of faith where that which you ask/seek/knock for is concerned. undecided

Even the very act of believing in Jesus Christ is an act of obedience to the commandment given by Jesus Christ to those who will follow Him. undecided

Faith and believe is not unique to believers since unbelievers also practice it too. For example, as an employee at any firm, you obey your employer when you believe that he will, as he stated, honor whatever contract he made 2with you. undecided

By your obedience to the commands given you as far as you work schedule, your responsibilities and duties each day, you express your faith in his process. And all that work you do is the substance of what you hope for, your paycheck and or promotion; the evidence of the things you expect or hope for in this agreement that is the job you have. undecided

Again, Hebrews 11 is not a definition of faith but a description of the relationship between faith and that which you expect or hope for. undecided

You keep dribbling yourself. Oh dear.

Using your analogy

Faith and believe is not unique to believers since unbelievers also practice it too. For example, as an employee at any firm, you obey your employer when you believe that he will, as he stated, honor whatever contract he made 2with you. undecided

The employee mentally assent to the employers ability to honor his part hence his obedience. You cannot obey what you mentally do not assent/agree to...
