any type of job... i dont have a choice now sir

PastorM:
We're all a work in progress. The Holy Spirit will deal with them.

Someone said don't pray to God to lift the burden of someone or God should help them fix their worries. What if God is waiting for you to help the poor person.

PS: I typed this in your style. How you do the introduction of your videos

Kobojunkie:
Do you recall what Jesus Christ said of who your brother, sister and brother ought to be? He said they are those who live in submission to and obedience to the teachings and commandments of Jesus Christ.

So, when you go to "correct" a person who lives instead in submission to and obedience to the doctrines and traditions of a church(men) instead of the teachings of Jesus Christ, is that person a brother of yours?

Kobojunkie:
Jesus Christ said those who love Him are those who obey His commandments and His friends are those who do as He says.

Good Day Nairalanders

Pls I need a laptop to use for my studies, but I don't have money.

Bigredmachine:
i need a job not relationship

Kobojunkie:
You only job is to submit to and obey the teachings and commandments of Jesus Christ - that is the only way to get them to see, and hear what you have seen and heard.

Kobojunkie:
In the Kingdom of God, Jesus Christ is the one and only Teacher, Counselor, Comforter, Guide, Lead/Master over those who belong to Him.

Opeyemiextra:
My concern should be the state of my relationship with God. Once I'm approved by God, I don't care what you, even if you are a pastor, think.
All these assistant Jesus ehn judging others for sinning differently.

Kobojunkie:
There is actually no truth to any of what He said said Jesus Christ never sent any of His followers out to attend the churches of men.

If you read your bible carefully, you would have learnt that even Jesus Christ went into the synagogues(the churches of men during His own time) to preach to people calling calling out of the synagogues to instead become His followers. He said He would build His own Church - His own hands - not the hands of your pastors and Mogs.

Yes! There's God. There are primarily two things about God in a situation such as this.

1. Every minister of God has a level that they can operate within. They can't go above that level except God promotes them based on their dedication to the work. As such when God promotes you to a bigger office, you can then begin to express dominion over certain things up to the level permitted for your new office.

For example, if your present office is only to teach God's Word, regardless of how you pray, you can never deliver anyone possessed by demons. You can't also prophesy or do anything outside of teaching God's Word. What this means is that if you have a problem, you'll have to submit yourself to another minister of God whose office is bigger than yours and once that person prays for you, your case would instantly receive God's attention. It's like going to see a president. There are people that'd have to pass through protocols and there are people that'd simply work directly into the president's office without hindrances to see them.

Most ministers of God understand this fact, but usually they don't want to submit to a fellow minister of God that occupies a bigger office than them and then their problem would overwhelm them. There and then, people would begin to ask questions such as yours - some genuinely and others in a bid to mock God. But God is God and God has standards. Sadly, He can't compromise them for any reason. Again, men's ignorance isn't God's business.

2. When you time is nigh, no prayer can stop it. Even the Holy Bible says there's time for everything: a time to be born and a time to die. Take note that such time to be born or die isn't within the control of any man but God alone. People born and die when it's their time. The only thing we can do as humans is to plead for God's mercy to live long on earth. It's totally up to God to grant us long life or shorten it based on our purpose on earth [that's a story for another day].

However, if it has to be your time to die, let it be that you've done everything humanly possible to stay alive and not just limit yourself to your own understanding of what should or shouldn't be.

And that is it.

14 When they came to the crowd, a man approached Jesus and knelt before him.

15“Lord, have mercy on my son,” he said. “He has seizures and is suffering greatly. He often falls into the fire or into the water.

16 I brought him to your disciples, but they could not heal him.”

17 “You unbelieving and perverse generation,” Jesus replied, “how long shall I stay with you? How long shall I put up with you? Bring the boy here to me.”

18 Jesus rebuked the demon, and it came out of the boy, and he was healed at that moment.

19 Then the disciples came to Jesus in private and asked, “Why couldn’t we drive it out?”

20 He replied, “Because you have so little faith. Truly I tell you, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.”

Matthew 17:14‭-‬20 NIV

alBHAGDADI:
One thing many don't understand is that the church is not a place for everybody. It is only for those who are Saved i.e who believe Jesus has given them eternal life and that they will never go to hell fire no matter what.

It is not for those who are not saved, who don't have the spirit of God inside them. Since they don't have the spirit of God in them, they will not understand the word of God being said in church because it is spirit.

John 6:63 KJV
the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.

This explains why they find the scolding word of God to be annoying. They hate it when they are being judged by the word of God for their sins. But if it is a saved person, the person won't hate the church for simply doing its job. What unsaved people want is a place where they can go and feel good.

The church is not for the unsaved

When Jesus sent out his disciples in twos, he told them to go preach the gospel. After they were done saving the people they preached to, those people were brought to Jesus who then taught them how to live their life. Note, it was saved people that were brought to Jesus, not unsaved people. That had to be saved first which was why they listened to Jesus. The unsaved people who came around were always arguing with Jesus and disagreeing with him.

Kobojunkie:
The Kingdom of Heaven and the Kingdom of Hell, both of them domains in the Kingdom of God which is ruled over by Jesus Christ.

Kobojunkiee:
Read my previous comment to you and the Gospels - Matthew 25 vs 31 - 46.

He explained this through numerous parables where He set Himself up as Lord and King over all those who are good and those who are evil or His enemies. He is King and ruler over all even demons and devils. Why do you think they vow to Him?

Mariangeles:
So, you're female!

Nlanalyst:
Auntie Zzor!
Is this the secret behind how you pepper guys on this forum?

Kobojunkiee:
There is only one Kingdom of God and it is inside of this Kingdom that you find both Heaven and Hell.

Kobojunkiee:
Yes, they are the enemies of Jesus Christ, not His friends- John 15 vs 14 , and He will punish them when He returns - Matthew 25 vs 31 - 44

Kobojunkiee:
If you know this, and you know that these enemies all are a part of God's very own Kingdom since they believe in Him - They cannot do anything without His permission - , even though they reject His Truth, so what is there to be afraid of?

Kobojunkiee:
Recall the ones who persecuted Jesus Christ and even the disciples were not the unbelievers of the world, but rather those claimed to worship the very same God but hated Jesus Christ, His Truth. Who do you think those are in today's world?

Kobojunkiee:
I don't understand. How exactly will heeding His Word get me prosecuted? For what?

Kobojunkiee:
Jesus Christ is always waiting for those who will heed His instructions anytime.

Kobojunkiee:
Or are you assuming you can get the understanding from other humans instead?

Kobojunkiee:
The key here is God is not a fool.... His definition of good works is what He will use in judging us, not ours.

Using my understanding to get more of what? My day is the same as most every other day this past week. So nothing to talk about.

Kobojunkie:
3. USE THE UNDERSTANDING YOU HAVE AND YOU WILL GET MORE; ELSE EVEN THE LITTLE UNDERSTANDING YOU HAD WILL BE TAKEN AWAY FROM YOU - Matthew 13 vs 13 & Mark 4 vs 21 - 25 " Matthew 25 vs 29

Speechlesss.....but wait! U said 'JUST' Pls 150k is not just,even 10k is not just.

Watermountains:
Which recent topic in specific? I made a few recently…

Kobojunkiee:
I am serious... too many people are used to overuling God as if to suggest God is some kind of fool who does not mean what He says exactly the way He said it.

Learn to take God at His Word, not yours!
