Faith in Christ is already the work then,

John 6:29
Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent.

Oops, Jesus said this is the work of God,
Meaning by not doing work through faith in Christ they have done the work of God.
Is God not wonderful, he is smarter than the you,
Nobody can boast in God's kingdom because they all got saved on Christ merit not on their own.

Ephesians 2:8
For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:

Ephesians 2:9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.

Keep deceiving Yourself.


James 2:17 Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone. 2:18 Yea, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: shew me thy faith without thy works, and I will shew thee my faith by my works.

2:19 Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble.

2:20 But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead?

2:21 Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he had offered Isaac his son upon the altar?

2:24 Ye see then how that by works a man is justified, and not by faith only.

Please explain th above verses

Jonah 3:10 And God saw their works, that they turned from their evil way; and God repented of the evil, that he had said that he would do unto them; and he did it not.

Why did the people of Nineveh turn from their evil ways, does it mean their faith alone could not save them?

Really.

Murderers, prostitutes, gays,drunkards,occultists all have faith in Jesus they all pray and gave alms.


Matthew 16:27 For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels; and then he shall reward every man according to his works.

Does it mean Jesus will reward people according to their works not faith?

And Jesus told you it is the ten commandments?

Interesting, so God's commandment cannot be love?

1 John 3:11
For this is the message that ye heard from the beginning, that we should love one another.

False religion has blinded you




Clown.

Of course Jesus and Paul said Love is the keeping of the 10commandments.

Something I have proved over and over.

Romans 13:8 Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law.
13:9 For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if there be any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
13:10 Love worketh no ill to his neighbour: therefore love is the fulfilling of the law.


James 2:8 If ye fulfil the royal law according to the scripture, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself, ye do well:

Galatians 5:14 For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.



Here is Jesus saying the law is the 10commandments.

Matthew 22:37 Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind. 22:38 This is the first and great commandment. 22:39 And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. 22:40 On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.


Either you are blind or you don't have sense to comprehend that Love means to keep the 10commandments with all this evidence I have given.

Apostles james says to love is to fufill the Royal law.

James 2:8 If ye fulfil the royal law according to the scripture, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself, ye do well:

So what is the Royal law?

James 2:8 If ye fulfil the royal law according to the scripture, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself, ye do well:

2:11 For he that said, Do not commit adultery, said also, Do not kill. Now if thou commit no adultery, yet if thou kill, thou art become a transgressor of the law.


James 1:25 But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.

It's obvious the Royal law spoken by James as fulfillment of Love is the 10commandments.

Apostles James also told us to obey and do the 10commandments which he calls the law of liberty.


James 1:22 But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.
1:23 For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass:
1:24 For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was.


James 1:25 But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, and continueth therein, he being not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.

And the law of liberty is no doubt the 10commandments.

Here is the evidence.

James 2:11 For he that said, Do not commit adultery, said also, Do not kill. Now if thou commit no adultery, yet if thou kill, thou art become a transgressor of the law.
2:12 So speak ye, and so do, as they that shall be judged by the law of liberty.

Am sure i have given enough evidence to expose your Naviety.

We are to obey and keep the 10commandments so says, Apostles James and Paul.

Paul.
Romans 2:13 (For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified.

Imagine none of them mentioned faith, Paul even said to be justified by God we should be doers and not just hearers of the law.

You claim all we need is faith, but you lie, becos we will be judged by the 10commandments also called the law of liberty, hence we are advised to keep them.

Romans 2:11 For there is no respect of persons with God. 2:12 For as many as have sinned without law shall also perish without law: and as many as have sinned in the law shall be judged by the law;


James 2:12 So speak ye, and so do, as they that shall be judged by the law of liberty.

If there is no law or we are no longer expected to obey it, why are we then going to be judged by it?

You have be saying all we need is faith, but the irony is that faith must always lead to obidence to God's law.

If Adam and Eve had faith in God, and that his commandment to them was true and for their own benefit, they would have obeyed God's command not to eat from the forbidden tree.

Faith does not lead to lawlessness rather it leads to obidence.


Romans 2:13 (For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified. 2:14 For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves: 2:15 Which shew the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and their thoughts the mean while accusing or else excusing one anotherwink

Here Paul is saying when we have the Law of God written in our hearts it produces fruits, with our conscience bearing witness.

That is why works cannot save anyone, it is only after salvation that ones work will be reward.

Unsaved people doing good works is a waste.

Why are they unsaved? they have the law of faith,

They believe in the righteousness of Jesus which has been imputed upon them, so what right do you have to call them unsaved?

Afterall you said all we need to be saved is faith.

To seek God's good and welfare is to love a his people the christians.

That's a lie Jesus never said to love God is only to love people.

He separated the 2 commands.

Loving God and ones neighbour

Showing you cannot substitute one for the other.


Mark 12:29 And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord:
12:30 And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment.
12:31 And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these.


Atheists and freethinkers are some of the greatest philanthropist.

Even Idol worshippers also help people through their work or through charity, does it mean all this people please God?

A Christian should flee from fornication because his body is God's temple.

1 Corinthians 6:15-18 Know ye not that your bodies are the members of Christ? shall I then take the members of Christ, and make them the members of an harlot? God forbid.
What? know ye not that he which is joined to an harlot is one body? for two, saith he, shall be one flesh.
But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit.
Flee fornication. Every sin that a man doeth is without the body; but he that committeth fornication sinneth against his own body.

This is not in the 10 commanment is it?



Its obvious I have been talking with a kid.

Here is dictionary definition of fornication.

"The first and foremost way to be sure of that is by IDENTIFYING the group of people practicing Christianity in the right sense" John 17:20-23

I wonder how you can love the Christians without the ability to IDENTIFY them?
Is it just a philanthropic lifestyle towards those claiming Christians?
Or specifically assisting the Christians in doing God's will?

When God intended to destroy Jericho a lady decided to ASSIST God's people to accomplish God's purpose as she was able to IDENTIFY them {Joshua 2:8-13} for this single act God count it as WORKS OF FAITH for that prostitute and she received three kinds of blessings:
(1) During the destruction of Jericho Rahab and those in her house were spared! Joshua 6:25
(2) Her name was mentioned in God's memory book of faithful servants! James 2:25; Hebrews 11:30-31
(3) When Rahab is resurrected she will be so happy to know that she's great grandmother of Jesus Christ! Matthew 1:5

So to do good towards God we must IDENTIFY His people and support them to accomplish God's will! smiley

It simply means we will be pioneers of his teachings. For instance do you know of any religious group that:

© Has nothing to do in the world's Politics? John 17:14-16
© Doesn't enroll in military services? Matthew 26:52

© Doesn't bear religious titles with their names? Matthew 23:5-12
© Have Love amongst themselves? John 13:34-35
© Ever peaceful and easygoing everywhere people know them? John 14:27
© You can't hear them making noice in your streets in the name of PREACHING? Matthew 12:19
© Will never pray with others unless there's mutual agreement on tenets of worship? John 17:8-9

So if you see such a group know that they're already WITNESSING for the man who taught all those things above! smiley

All this things you quoted are human commandments and tradition, not God.

Or can you point to where the Apostles think of such things?
Guy you're totally confused about Christianity i'm quoting Jesus' word but you're overruling it with man-made traditions. What Jesus commaded differs from all these things people does. That's what God called self righteousness since it's not stipulated as part of what the early Christians established! Isaiah 64:6

The Bible says to “make sure of the more important things”—Philippians 1:10
Imagine this scenario, you hire a babysitter to care for your infant kids at home while you’re at work hustling for daily bread. But after the hustle and bustle of the day, you come back only to see that this babysitter ignored your children—they hadn’t eaten nor had their bath all day but in her defense, she began saying that she cleaned the windows and mopped the floors. Would you give her a pat on the back seeing that she didn’t do EXACTLY what you asked her to do? Of course not.
So why do you think Jesus will give any attention to people performing “powerful works” such as building schools, hospitals etc in his name without giving attention to the more important things like preaching and teaching the good news of God’s Kingdom? Matthew 24:14
According to Jesus himself, he would totally reject all those who claim to have done such “powerful works” in his name.

Don't mind him, he's so stupid that he doesn't realize he's unknowingly condemning the God of Israel that he has been trying to argue in support. smiley

When Israelites were busy making arrangements to start a nation and the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob was calling them His special possession {Exodus 19:5} other world powers are building schools, hospital, prisons and other stuff. For instance was it not in Egypt that Moses was EDUCATED along with the ROYAL family?
So how do you think an Israelite can convince an Egyptian whose nation has advanced much more than Israelites, that the God of Israel is the Creator of heaven and Earth?

Abeg bro the guy is totally confused thinking he knew anything about pure worship.
He thought since those people are planning for things that seems good in the eyes of people, Jesus had no option than to approve their works! cheesy

© Will never pray with others unless there's mutual agreement on tenets of worship? John 17:8-9

So if you see such a group know that they're already WITNESSING for the man who taught all those things above! smiley



Knowing Jesus' true identity is not by quoting words that nobody can SEE it in action, prove you know Jesus by presenting his followers {Matthew 5:13-16} if you don't know that then you have nothing to prove that you know Jesus.
He is the Commader whose followers are actively working round the globe doing God's will! Matthew 28:19-20 smiley
Why not? Jehovah never sent Christians to witness for Jehoavh? There is no scriptural backup for it.

Again, your organisation opposes the bible, add to the word of God and changed it.

Your Jesus is not the same the apostles teach, you are building on another foundation not Jesus.
We Christians believe in Jesus who is Almighty God incarnate.

Jesus is Jehovah God that is why we believe on Jesus.
Trusting on a creature other than the creator is Idolatry which Jehovah witness are guilty of.

You are worshiping a god who claims he is the Almighty yet the attributes of the Almighty God {Galatians 5:22-23} as listed in God's word can't be found anywhere apart from the Congregations of JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES. What an irony? undecided

The Bible says to “make sure of the more important things”—Philippians 1:10
Imagine this scenario, you hire a babysitter to care for your infant kids at home while you’re at work hustling for daily bread. But after the hustle and bustle of the day, you come back only to see that this babysitter ignored your children—they hadn’t eaten nor had their bath all day but in her defense, she began saying that she cleaned the windows and mopped the floors. Would you give her a pat on the back seeing that she didn’t do EXACTLY what you asked her to do? Of course not.
So why do you think Jesus will give any attention to people performing “powerful works” such as building schools, hospitals etc in his name without giving attention to the more important things like preaching and teaching the good news of God’s Kingdom? Matthew 24:14
According to Jesus himself, he would totally reject all those who claim to have done such “powerful works” in his name.
Matthew 7:21-23

Who said preaching was not the main aim or part of this gestures?

Of what value is preaching to a hungry man without giving him food?
Of what use is preaching to an orphan the gospel alone?when you can be the hand of God that will deliver both the gospel message and the needs of that child.

Your guys are hypocrites.

You only do it for the World to praise you not God.

Don't mind him, he's so stupid that he doesn't realize he's unknowingly condemning the God of Israel that he has been trying to argue in support. smiley
When Israelites were busy making arrangements to start a nation and the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob was calling them His special possession {Exodus 19:5} other world powers are building schools, hospital, prisons and other stuff. For instance was it not in Egypt that Moses was EDUCATED along with the ROYAL family?
So how do you think an Israelite can convince an Egyptian whose nation has advanced much more than Israelites, that the God of Israel is the Creator of heaven and Earth?
Abeg bro the guy is totally confused thinking he knew anything about pure worship.
He thought since those people are planning for things that seems good in the eyes of people, Jesus had no option than to approve their works! cheesy


My brother do you know that most of these people who profess that they believe in Jesus actually disagree with most of his teachings in secret? They feel that most of the things that occurred in the Greek scriptures are lies or error and that they must communicate with Jesus directly to get the correct info. Unfortunately, the so-called angels they are always seeing continues to whine them with no lasting benefit in sight. Galatians 1:8, 2Corinthians 11:14
That’s how one of my relatives those days who is a clergyman used to put up arguments with me asserting that the Bible contains errors and that the information therein is fallible. If I remember clearly, one statement made by Jesus at Matthew 10:34-36 used to be like a jigsaw puzzle for him so he concluded that the entire Bible has errors and that the statements Jesus made had been tampered with. Clergyman oo! In RCCG.
He knew that Jehovah’s Witnesses were well equipped for the task so I handled him as expected because Isaiah 40:8 states that Jehovah’s word endures forever so if he says that the Bible has been tampered with, it therefore means two things(at least): that his god is powerless as he cannot preserve his own written word and that we cannot be adherents of the same God(Micah 4:5) since we do not flow in the same line of thought. 1Corinthians 1:10

Clown is that how you refute my argument?
Is there anything I wrote there, that is not what Jesus wants us to do?


Matthew 25:35-40
New International Version
35 For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in,(A) 36 I needed clothes and you clothed me,(B) I was sick and you looked after me,(C) I was in prison and you came to visit me.’(D)

37 “Then the righteous will answer him, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? 38 When did we see you a stranger and invite you in, or needing clothes and clothe you? 39 When did we see you sick or in prison and go to visit you?’

40 “The King will reply, ‘Truly I tell you, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did for me.’(E)

Hypocrites.

You be are only near to God with your mouths but far from him with your hearts and deeds.

David is not a Christian!
So he never knew all what i quoted up there, and definitely he is not fitted to be part of those who will rule with Jesus in Heaven! Matthew 11:11


You're mixing what people think is good with what Jesus commissioned. smiley
Did Jesus established any of that?
Or can you point to where the Apostles think of such things?
Guy you're totally confused about Christianity i'm quoting Jesus' word but you're overruling it with man-made traditions. What Jesus commaded differs from all these things people does. That's what God called self righteousness since it's not stipulated as part of what the early Christians established! Isaiah 64:6

I cannot stop laughing, David is not a Christian.
So what was David? A pagan.

What did Jesus command?

That we should neglect the poor,needy, orphans, sinners?
No wonder your church is a failed one.

In Jesus’ day, there were thousands of hungry people and beggars littered around in Jerusalem yet when was it recorded that Jesus performed that humanitarian act just for the fun of it? Even the 5,000 and later 4,000 people that Jesus miraculously fed had first demonstrated interest in God’s Word that’s why he provided their material needs at that time(John 6:1-13) because his interest was first to teach them God’s Word. Mark 6:34
But what did Jesus do when some later came back pretending as if they enjoyed his teaching but in reality they wanted to eat more food? John 6:22-26
Jesus told them that they should strive for the bread that gives everlasting life and that which does not perish. John 6:27, 48
Jesus then said so many shocking things that revealed what was in the hearts of those people and they all stopped following him in that moment. John 6:66-68
So do you still think satisfaction from food should be the motivating factor for a person to be interested in the good news? Jesus certainly didn’t think so.

which attribute? Are you talking of the cover ups of paedophiles your organisation? Or the many lies and false prophecy that have being told over the years?
Or the occultic relationship your organisation have?
Or the hatred and vile your organisation has for Christians?

So, which of the fruit?

The highlighted, i also have a cousin whose wife continued to marvel at the way i was handling the scriptures but kept quiet until the end of the discussion. She later came to me secretly after her husband left and said "please how can i also become an efficient Bible student like you? I knew you for long that you're not a Christian but how come you're so good in applying the scriptures to support what you're saying whereas my husband who is a pastor in RCCG just kept talking as if he can't even quote the Bible"
That day my cousin made a funny statement not knowing that his wife noted it.
He said "Jehovah's Witnesses has taught you too how to quote the Bible"
That woman was shocked because she expected her husband to be more competent that i do but the opposite is the case!

JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES, thank you! thank you!!
thank you guys for locating me!!! smiley
