The place known today as Egypt was a civilization that developed later from Ethiopia and Sudan. The Egyptians themselves said they came from the hinterlands of Africa at the beginning of the Nile river. Their God and monarchy didn't originate in Egypt, it originated thousands of years down South before Egypt. Example; Pharaoh Taharqa or Tiharqa (690 BC - 664 BC) ruled from Ethiopia/Sudan. Pharaoh Taharqa or Tiharqa was mentioned in the bible at 2 Kings 19: 8-13, 2 Kings 19: 9, 2 Kings 19: 8. Taharqo was the 4th Pharaoh in the 25th dynasty of the Egyptian monarchy and he ruled from Ethiopia/Sudan where Isis and Horus were worshiped long time before the Egyptian civilization. See Egyptian Pharaoh time line https://www.metmuseum.org/toah/hd/phar/hd_phar.htm

I' am not the one that said Jesus was born on 25th December, I was simply quoting what the different religions said. Historically, there's nobody even called Jesus Christ. Such a person didn't even exist.

Thank you for this, but the Christian Faith didn't say Christ was born on the 25 of December, the Catholic 'Hellenistic' Religion did.

Maezara:
Lol. You still don't get the point.

QUESTIONS:

1) Where is it written that Christ was born on 25 December?

2) [color=darkgreen]Where is it written that all the books of the Bible are genuinely CANON, and the ones not included are NON-CANON?[/color]

ANSWERS:

1) It's not written anywhere, the Catholic church DECIDED.

2) It's also not written anywhere, it was DECIDED by the Church.

Capiche, hmm?

The people who made December 25 the birthday of Christ are the same people who DECIDED which Book is Scripture and which Book is not. Do you get it now?

lolzzzzz. Do you think backwards? Those said books are still available and i, being a lover of books, i read them. That they are not added in the Bible doesn't make them valueless. I read and get inspired by them.
You may think you are making sense, but you don't realize that you are showing how devious the Catholic Church is. You, without realizing it, are exposing the evil of that Mother of harlots in trying to conceal truths and adding paganism into the Christian faith. But, She failed.

Again, where are we, as Christians enjoined to Celebrate the birth of Christ, be it 25 of December or not?

Keep talking, the more you talk, the more you expose your harlot of a Church.

am good just lost intrest in nairaland.

got ban for weeks for saying nothing o.

all my friends seems to be facing the same problem .

and i got a little bit more busy.

the topics on NL most times makes you want to puke.

there is a moniker similar to my own now which aint mine.



anyway happy new month and year in advance....

Getting banned is something we shd be used to by now nah. lol. Am no longer fazed by being banned for no reason.
Once i was banned, i didn't know why i was banned because a reason was not given. Someone said it was Algorithm. Okay o.

My dear thank God you have something to be busy on. Great results ahead.

I saw that moniker and thought it was your alt.

It's well.

MizMyColi:
Now, let's assume that Jesus truly said all that's credited to him...

You assume He didn't speak those words? Okay let's. lol.

MizMyColi:
He says, no one comes to the father, except through him. It means that there are actually people who relate more with the father than they do Jesus.

In the Old Covenant or the New? Are you a New Covenant believer or the Old? For, in this New Covenant, YHWH who came to us in the flesh says it has to be through Jesus.
Good News Translation Hebrews 1:1-2

In the past God spoke to our ancestors many times and in many ways through the prophets, but in these last days he has spoken to us through his Son.

He is the one through whom God created the universe, the one whom God has chosen to possess all things at the end.

Good News Translation Ephesians 1:22

God put all things under Christ's feet and gave him to the church as supreme Lord over all things

In every house, there's a door, and The Master says He is the Door to the Kingdom of YHWH, so, anyone who will not enter through the door is a thief.

Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that entereth not by the door into the sheepfold, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber.
John:10:1

I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture.
John:10:9

And, Yes, Jesus acknowledged those ones of whom you speak about, who want to go in through another means (Which of course can not get to YHWH). rather through the door.

This is what He says they are;

All that ever came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them.
John:10:8

MizMyColi:
Just like the prophets of old like Isaiah, who related directly with the father, it means that they went through Jesus without even realizing that they had gone through him!!

They didn't. None of them WENT to YHWH, He always came to them. No one knew how to get to Him until Christ came.

MizMyColi:
If they encountered him, they would have written about him, yeah?

YHWH gave them instructions for His people, but He never told them HOW to get to Him, hence, they couldn't write about what they were never told.

MizMyColi:
Oh, last I read...
Jesus also mentioned that the Father and Him are one...
If you have seen me, you have seen the father.
Therefore, if I have seen the father, I have seen
Jesus!!

Alleluia!!!

Good News Translation John 1:18
No one has ever seen God. The only Son, who is the same as God and is at the Father's side, he has made him known.

Again, Eph 1:22 say God put all things under Christ's feet and gave him to the church as supreme Lord over all things., So, to get anything from the Father, you must do that in THE NAME OF JESUS, why do you think He said that?

MizMyColi:
Now, it brings me back to my proposition from earlier, there are people who have had personal encounters with Jesus...
I'm not talking of bible-inspired encounters.
I'm talking about real, raw, face to face deals.

I want to be one of those too.

And do you know any of such person who had met Jesus face to face (Flesh and blood), after Ascension? Pls i need to know who they are.

Maezara:
Catholicism IS Christianity. So, what the fück are you on about? All you protestants and other non-Catholics are HELL-BOUND heretics. If you don't belong to the Catholic Church you already have an apartment furnished for you in hell, GUARANTEED.

Catholicism is ORIGINAL Christianity. Every other form of Christianity is a deviation from it, and shouldn't be taken seriously.

And before you start quoting the scriptures to prove that Catholicism is "Satanism", "Idolatry", or any other nonsense you can think of, please take note that [color=darkgreen]Catholics compiled the Bible[/color], so you should realize in advance how ridiculous that would be.

Hahahahahahahaa. Thank you very much for your kind words. Now where is it written that Christ was born on the 25 December?

Who is dragging the compilation of the Bible with you? They complied the Bible but practice Hellenism.

Catholic idolatrous culture put that date trying take Christ fit with other satanic demon worshipping cultures. Sir, it won't work.

We are Bible believing, nothing else added to it.

MizMyColi:
In the verse you quoted, I fail to see where the speaker said we can only access the divine through Jesus.

I do not think it is in your place to surmise that I look elsewhere.
My experiences are uniquely mine. It is better to be quiet if you do not know a thing for sure.

Jesus said He is the only way to YHWH. He said no one can get to the father except by Him.

You don't take His Words seriously do you?

MizMyColi:
I fail to see where the speaker

Come again

MizMyColi:
Hello Analize701,



I remember saying that I was scared of going too deep into the spiritual. I do not remember, and I really doubt that I ever said I was scared of going too deep into prayer-warrior-ing.

It's good you said "I sounded like" - now, this implies two things:
1. It's a postulation.
2. You are wrong.

The reason is best known to me, a topic for another day, if you may.

I'd like to ask, how did the prophets of old have access to Papa?
Through Jesus, yeah?
It might well be the same for me, who knows...
It might well be that the being I refer to as Papa is Jesus, OR not.

All I have said is that I cannot tell that I have experienced Jesus in a way that I expected.


No, Analice, I do not want to bypass Jesus...
On the contrary, I would like to experience Jesus beyond what the bible teaches. I want to experience his person....
Of course, I do not wish to go deeper.
If you are a person of discernment, then this should suffice.

Good News Translation Hebrews 1:1-2

In the past God spoke to our ancestors many times and in many ways through the prophets, but in these last days he has spoken to us through his Son.

He is the one through whom God created the universe, the one whom God has chosen to possess all things at the end.

You mean you want to encounter Jesus in person like flesh and blood?

He has always stood there calling but you were looking elsewhere.

Good News Translation Revelation 3:20

Listen! I stand at the door and knock; if any hear my voice and open the door, I will come into their house and eat with them, and they will eat with me.

CAPSLOCKED:

THE BIBLICAL STORY OF JESUS CONTRADICTS THIS.

Luke 2:7-8 SAYS THAT SHEPHERD WERE WATCHING THEIR FLOCK IN THE FIELDS WHEN HE WAS BORN.

SHEPHERD DON'T WATCH THEIR FLOCK IN THE FIELDS IN DECEMBER!



JESUS’ PARENTS CAME TO BETHLEHEM TO REGISTER IN A ROMAN CENSUS ( Luke 2:1-4 ).
SUCH CENSUSES WERE NOT TAKEN IN WINTER, WHEN TEMPERATURES OFTEN DROPPED BELOW FREEZING AND ROADS WERE IN POOR CONDITION. TAKING A CENSUS UNDER SUCH CONDITIONS WOULD HAVE BEEN SELF-DEFEATNG.

Before you go talking like a mad man. shouldn't you point were the Bible says Jesus was born on 25December? 25 December is a Catholic Hellenistic paganist culture. It has nothing to do with Christianity, but your madness won't let you stop and reason.

Sarassin:
Mark 13:24-27

“But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light, and the stars will be falling from heaven, and the powers in the heavens will be shaken. And then they will see the Son of Man coming in clouds with great power and glory. And then he will send out the angels and gather his elect from the four winds, from the ends of the earth to the ends of heaven"

Sounds to me like the end of the world as we know it! Happy New Year in advance M. Le Presidente....assuming of course Jesus has not arrived before then

Who snitched? This thread is going to take another shape entirely from now.

Is this not a kind of backbiting

Really, Being on this platform and observing folks who claim they have been strong Christians but are no more today, i get to notice that they never really knew what being Christian meant.

Their utterances or reactions to issues makes one wonder, how did this person got to be a Christian but didn't know this?

You for instance, once said that you were a prayer warrior, but was always scared of going too deep. You sounded like you were afraid of veering too deep so that you won't upset the opposing forces.
Do you remember saying this? Well, i do.

Being a prayer Warrior myself, i know the training we get in preparation to waging war against the opposing forces who wouldn't ordinarily allow their captives to go free.

I know that i don't fear satan because i know his secrets. I know that satan can not touch me except i compromise.

How then can a believer be scared to go too deep in prayer?

Again, here, you said as a deep Christian for decades, you never knew Christ. You knew Papa, but not Christ. This got me wondering again. How is this possible, since Papa has made Jesus the Door, the only way to Him. How then did you get to Papa? Or, are we referring to the same papa?

Abba, does not have respect for persons, it's either His way or you are out. If He says getting to Him must be through Jesus, then getting to Him must be through Jesus, No more, no less. No one can Bypass Yashua to get to YHWH.

My dear, any entity which whispered to you that he was papa, without Jesus in the picture, pls know that he is not Abba. Abba's Words are yes and Amen.

This is the point which ignited my curiosity and i borrowed a Bible to read what Jesus had to say about Himself by Himself.

I discovered that all the Worlds religion have no problem accept the common noun 'God', but when it came to Jesus, but, when it came to Jesus, they all had opinions. They all have a problem with Jesus.

They try by all means to down play the divinity of Jesus or replace him with a version in a certain Culture which satan has quickly enacted (haven got an insight that such a child will be born) or outrightly reject Him.

With time i came to know that they accepted God because satan disguises as God to them, but if Jesus comes into things, he (satan) will be exposed, hence, he urges his followers to bypass Jesus.

I think this is the reason YHWH put Jesus as the Door to Him. Anyone who rejects Jesus as the Door, is a suspect.

Jesus says, the owner of the house enters the house through the door, but a thief enters through the Window.

LoJ:
what is a familiar spirit sir?

When I was a christian, there were this other branch of christian who were always casting and binding familiar spirits. I never understood what is it exactly they mean by that, nor the point of binding any spirit in carrying out deliverance. Well, topic for another day.

This came from a Christian?

I remember this very kind, gentle polite and amiable brother saying he was a young pastor, then i read this ^^^ from him, and i was like, what?? How can one read the Bible (even as a story book) and won't know what familiar spirits are and their activities in our generational bloodlines?

Everyone i have encountered in this forum who claim they were Christians, turns out they were only in Church but no experience. But being in Church can not make one a Christian, just like sitting in a garage doesn't make one a Car. No one had ever experienced Jesus and left.

Wonderfully!!!!!, Pls MuttleyLaff help me put the feeling into words if you can. I have never known a man who has been able to describe the feeling he gets when he encounters Christ. None.

The feeling that takes away fear. It liberates. The feeling that keeps you calm and in peace when a knife if laid on your neck to cut. The feeling that makes you sing praises with a smile when you are so hungry but no money anywhere. I think it is true love.

I love you Jesus.

N/B. I stand with you and support you in whoever you have chosen to become, but pls, stop saying you were a Christian because when one observes your words they betray you.

I hope i didn't sound rude? i apologize in advance.

Is this not a kind of backbiting

Epele o. Biko let it not be held against me. Backbiting is a sin. I'm sorry.

I didn't see it as gossip as i just agreed with his point.

butterflyl1on:

What desperation and stupidity. From hinduism/buddhism which is the origin of karma you leapfrogged to Christianity with it.

You are hopelessly ignorant and deceptively mad.

D thing weak me sef.

MsNgo40:
Could u explain a little further?

Aren't we the light of the world? Individually we are little lights in our various corners, but when together, the little lights emerges a great light of Christ illuminating the dark world around us.

It all begins with us loving as He loves. Lets not consider how degenerating and deplorable our world is right now, Lets keep loving, especially those who do not deserve our love those who can't love us back.

Isaiah:60:1-3
Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the LORD is risen upon thee.

For, behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people: but the LORD shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee.

And the Gentiles shall come to thy light, and kings to the brightness of thy rising.

Julivas:
....and you in your small space , and everybody is his/her own corner, together will make a peaceful world.

See? Our little lights put together will emerge a great illuminating light.

daveP:
the boldened startles me very much.

Like you worked in a company, got promoted, but still doubt you're a staff cos all files, info don't come to your desk? Assurance of Salvation must be known!! How come you got deep, yet still revel in uncertainty?

That was my thought too. How does one go deep into Christianity without Christ? What or who takes one deep?

What does DEEP mean?

Julivas:
"Love as HE loves" this is the most important, if we can all do this, the world will be a better place to live in.

Start in your small corner.

vaxx:
Both represent each given energy needed for a human to accomplished his goals.....

In other words, they are different.

That is how YHWH is different from allah.

Julivas:
Absolutely
May His grace be sufficient for us.

Everything is yours says the Master. Knowledge to appropriate what has already been given is what we need.

Love as He loves.

studies has show that four of the major tribe in west Africa, the Yoruba , the igbo, the akan of Ghana and cote d voire ,Ga adangbe (Togo and Ghana)are 99.9 percent genetically related(university of Ibadan)...am sure all the kenite and the nok family will soon be confirmed

igbo and yoruba share similar culture and tradition .....the believe of orisa known as arusi in igbo language , the believe in ifa divination known as afa in igbo as well, the veneration of the ancestors and many more.......

now to your question ?

amadihoha is the god of thunder in igbo, is the same as shango who is also the god of thunder in yoruba.......

Okay, so Obatala is different from Amadioha and Ogun right? meaning they are not the same deities.

Julivas:
1. It takes a lot of discipline and the grace of God to avoid sin.

2. In this world, sin chases people on every side.

3. Sin walks on the street, appears on tv, speaks through the radio, writes books.

4. Sin acts films for people to watch and backslide.

5. Sin even comes to the church.

6. Sin is available in every measure and quality, depending on how you want it.

7. Sin is never tired, it doesn't fade, always attractive.

8. Sin is always the sweetest thing at the present, but it will produce a disastrous future.

9. Sin multiplies and advances with time.

10. Sin is never too little to destroy a person.

11. Sin can be your secret partner and nobody will know it.

12. Sin can even relax in your pocket, while you're carrying the Bible all around.

13. Sin is the worst virus and only Jesus is the cure.

RUN AWAY FROM SIN AND HOLD ON TO JESUS!
It is well.

Sin is a terminal disease of the Spirit, just like Cancer is a terminal disease of the body.

Sin is sweet but very deadly.

Grace Oh Lord, to love you.

A direct quote from the literature legend .chinua achebe

the white man is very clever. He came quietly with his religion. We were amused at his foolishness and allowed him to stay. Now he has won our brothers, and our clan can no longer act like one. He has put a knife on the things that held us together and we have fallen apart."
—from THINGS FALL APART (1958).

look at what both Christianity and Islam has done to black man........Division everywhere

Is Amadioha the same as Ogun or Obatala?
