The works of salvation by God through Christ Jesus is foolishness to those who are perishing but for us who believe it is the power of God which gives eternal life..
My brother, time waits for no one. Tomorrow might be too late, accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior in order to be made right with God

.... By the the grace of God in Christ Jesus. I am save in Christ Jesus In God. I laughed at his foolishness and ignorance. Moreover, me laughing didn't get God angry at me. Don't be quick to judge

FxMasterz:


Think about it this way, when the Lord Jesus was with His disciples, were they saved? Didn't they have the Holy Spirit? Didn't they perform miracles? Were they not children of God?

Why then did the Lord Jesus say to them,

John 20:22,

"When he had said this, he breathed on them; and he said to them: RECEIVE YE THE HOLY GHOST ."

Are you now getting it? Why then did the Lord Jesus say again to them after this John 22 event

"Tarry ye in Jerusalem until ye be endued with power from on high... And ye shall receive power after the Holy Ghost has come upon you"

See, the Holy Ghost must come UPON you. After already coming WITHIN you. At salvation, the Holy Ghost comes WITHIN you. When you're baptized in the Holy Ghost, He comes UPON you.

The Acts 2 experience is a must for every believer who wants to walk in the Power of God.

Go and read Acts 2 please and take note of 2 important verses:

Verse 15: "... In the LAST DAYS, I will pour out MY SPIRIT UPON all flesh....."

Verse 38: "Repent and be baptized, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ for the forgiveness of your sins. And you will receive THE GIFT of the Holy Spirit. The promise is for you and your children and for all who are far off—for all whom the Lord our God will call.”

Two important Gifts you must receive: 1. The gift of Salvation and 2. The Gift of the Holy Ghost.

Let me add another Scripture here. Saul encountered the Lord Jesus on his way to Damascus. He repented and began to seek the face of God in prayer. Then the Lord Jesus spoke to Ananias about Paul, asking him to go and pray for him.

Acts 9:17-18
"And Ananias went his way, and entered into the house; and putting his hands on him said, BROTHER SAUL, the Lord, even Jesus, that appeared unto thee in the way as thou camest, hath sent me, that thou mightest receive thy sight, AND BE FILLED WITH THE HOLY GHOST And immediately there fell from his eyes as it had been scales: and he received sight forthwith, AND AROSE, AND WAS BAPTIZED."

Regarding your use of the 'quote', I observed that you quoted a whole page instead of segmenting according to the sections you intend to respond to. See my example below:


Now, I'll go to the next segment and quote another section.


Now I can respond again to what I quoted above.

See the screenshot below to see what gave me the above results. You can quote as many segments of a post as you want.

God gives us His Life at salvation, and then gives us HIS POWER when we get baptized in the Holy Ghost.

I will tag you in a new thread... Where I answered the question through the leading of the Spirit of God. I also pray for understanding for us all in Jesus Christ name

TenQ:

The Holy Spirit comes ONCE to seal a person by indwelling him/her.

Being filled with the Holy Spirit means being fully controlled by the Holy Spirit, and this should be every time of our lives.

Do you have the Holy Spirit?

I'm sorry, this is heresy. Absolutely anti-scripture. Those who call Him Lord, Lord are not necessarily disciples. A disciple is someone who follows and obey. This is the Biblical standard. Wherever you see Believer or Disciple in the Bible, it's not talking about those shouting Lord, Lord please. [/b]
Nothing heretic in what I said.
✝ Matthew 7:21

"Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven."

KJV Bible
While will you call someone you don't follow and obey Lord. This people that Jesus is denying never knowing are what?
Seems you're contradicting yourself. I don't get your point in saying "They became saved when Philip preached to them" and again, "They were not saved." [b]
They weren't safe, until they received the Holy Spirit latter. If I said they were saved initially, then it must have been a mistake on my path.


The seal actually comes immediately someone confesses Jesus as Lord. The moment the thief on Christ's right hand on the cross said "Lord, remember me..." He had that seal of salvation. The baptism is for power. Not for salvation. Holy Spirit baptism cones only after salvation.
[/b] The seal doesn't come immediately we confess him as Lord, but immediately we believe. ✝ Ephesians 1:13

"In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believe[color=#000000][/color]d, ye were sealed with that Holy Spirit of promise,"
The thief was saved on credit, just as all old testament prophet and men who walked with God. The sheep they were sacrifice was accepted in the light of the death and sacrifice of Jesus. Because it is impossible for the blood of rams and sheeps to atone for our sins.✝ Hebrews 10:4

"For it is not possible that the blood of bulls and of goats should take away sins."

KJV

The thief on the cross received nothing. He was saved on promise or credit.. So when Jesus Christ completed the sacrifice and shouted, it is finished" he settled it all.

Romans 10:9 is the simple truth about salvation. [b]. Romans 10 and Romans 11 has nothing to do with us who have believed and have been sealed with the Holy Spirit. God was revealing through apostle Paul how Isreal still fits in on the plan of salvation and also how they will be saved during the great tribulation that will come upon the Nation Isreal... Pls go back and read the context. Moreover, if Paul believes that we need to confess to be saved then he will be contradicting himself. ✝ Ephesians 1:13

"In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that Holy Spirit of promise,"

KJV Bible
✝ Mark 16:16

"He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned."

KJV Bible
The only requirement Jesus listed here is believing and baptism(Which I believe is the baptism of the Holy Spirit).

"[b[If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved."[/b]

At the point of confessing and believing, the Spirit of God revives your dead Spirit. You become born again. You now have the life of God. [/b] Confessing is not part of condition for getting save. If it does, the dumb who can not speak will be left behind.

Jesus was speaking to believers here:

Acts 1:8

"[b]But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you"

In the above scripture, Jesus was speaking to Believers who had the Spirit of God in them but had not experienced the Baptism of Power. The power came in Acts 2. You might want to go and study that chapter. Those who received the Baptism of the Holy Spirit in Acts 2 were only Disciples - Believers in Christ. [/b] The apostles never had the Spirit of God in them prior the Pentecost. And I agree they were all disciples... The important point is that they believed right except one Judas


Water Baptism means to die with Christ and to resurrect with Christ. The person baptized is identifying with the death and resurrection of Jesus. It's mean for only those who are born again.
[b] okay I was wrong here

He actually didn't give His life to us. Rather He gave His Life FOR us. "The Righteous for the unrighteous, that we might be saved." We give out lives to Him as a mark of dedication and acknowledgement of His Lordship over us.[/b]
Yes, He did give his life to us. His Spirit in me, in us is His life he has given to us and also you are right, He gave his life for us as a ransom as well. We have nothing to give. He choosed us, we didn't do choose Him.

As I said earlier:

1. Believers receive the Holy Ghost as a seal of salvation the moment they confess the Lordship of Christ and believe He was raised for their salvation. [b]
People receives the Holy Spirit the moment they believe but in some unique occasions like in Samaria Jesus Christ might delay it for reasons best known to him. Some say is because of the unity of the Early Church then. But I don't what to delve into that.

2. After this follows the EMPLOYMENT which is the baptism of the Holy Ghost with the evidence of Speaking in tongues.[/b] Brother, there is no two coming of the Holy Spirit when you believe, He comes in with all of Him.


Don't tell me Paul didn't know who the believers are. Don't tell me Paul laid hands on the non believers. The Bible says he laid hands on Believers. [b]. Paul didn't lay hands on non believer because he made them believers before laying of hands.
✝ Acts 19:4

"Then said Paul, John verily baptized with the baptism of repentance, saying unto the people, that they should believe on him which should come after him, that is, on Christ Jesus."

KJV Bible


Please if you've not received the EMPOWERMENT, go for it. Read Acts Chapter 1 - 2, let the Holy Spirit teach you Himself.

Pls can you teach me how to quote you line by line. I tried it before but I messed everything up.... Let's us rob the mind of in Christ together.... I have a lot to respond and I pray the for the understanding of the Spirit of God to prevail.

TenQ:

There is a difference between the Baptism of the Holy Ghost (which takes place at the point of salvation) AND Being Filled with the Holy Ghost (which may occur simultaneously or much later time after a person is Baptised by the Holy Ghost.

The Baptism of the Holy Spirit inducts you into the Body of Christ while the filling of the Holy Spirit empowers a believer to function.

Anyone who does not have the Holy Spirit as a result of His baptism by Him is neither a child of God nor saved.

Luk 3:16:
"John answered, saying to them all, I indeed baptize you with water; but one mightier than I comes, the lace of whose shoes I am not worthy to unloose: he shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost and with fire:"




The Baptism of the Holy Spirit takes place just once in ones lifetime while the Filling is supposed to be as often as possible. We are commanded to be filled with the Holy Spirit



Shalom

I don't think I am contending this... The contention is does the Holy Spirit come twice?

Those whom Paul met were actually Believers. They were called 'Disciples'.

Being a disciple does not make one a believer.
✝ Matthew 7:21

"Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven."
✝ John 6:64

"But there are some of you that believe not. For Jesus knew from the beginning who they were that believed not, and who should betray him."

Followers doesn't always mean you have believers. Moreover believing in the wrong message is as bad, as not believing at all.

Those who Philip preached to became saved after Philip preached to them. [/quote]

They were not saved. Through salvation comes with the Spirit of God. ✝ John 3:5

"Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God."

KJV Bible
✝ Zechariah 4:6

"Then he answered and spoke unto me, saying, This is the word of the LORD unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the LORD of hosts."

KJV ✝ Ephesians 1:13

"In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that Holy Spirit of promise,"

KJV Bible

Without the seal which is the adorable Spirit of Christ, the believer is not saved. On the last day, many will say, "Lord we believed in you, why are we being rejected but the Lord will say to them depart from me, for if you believe in me my Spirit would have been in you." The problem is not believing but what you are believing.




Acts 8:12
"But when they believed Philip as he proclaimed the good news of the kingdom of God and the name of Jesus Christ, they were baptized, " [/quote]
Baptism has nothing to do with salvation but a symbol of the real deal, that is, the baptism of the Holy Spirit or receiving of the Holy Ghost.

They were saved. They gave their lives to Christ. [/quote]
We didn't give our life to him. He gave his life to us instead. We're just called to believe he did it. Simple

After this, see what happened next:

Acts 8:14-17

"When the apostles in Jerusalem heard that Samaria had accepted the word of God, they sent Peter and John to Samaria. When they arrived, they prayed for the new believers there that they might receive the Holy Spirit, because the Holy Spirit had not yet come on any of them; they had simply been baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.[/quote]
Baptizing any anyone is just a symbol. Believing is the real deal, but it most be confirmed and sealed by the receiving of the Holy Spirit.Then Peter and John placed their hands on them, and they received the Holy Spirit." [/quote] This is the confirmation that they believed the right message.

In Acts 19, those people for whom Paul prayed were also believers. That's why Paul asked "Have you received the Holy Ghost since ye Believed?. Paul knew that it is one thing to be a Believer, it is another thing to be baptized in the Holy Ghost, hence, the question.[/quote]. Not everyone who confesses Jesus Christ believes the message of the gospel. Not everyone one who preaches Christ and defend in arguments about Jesus here in Nairaland, actually believes the message of salvation.

Read also Acts 10 to see a similar scenario in the house of Cornelius.

The Baptism of the Holy Spirit is different from the salvation experience. In both cases the Holy Spirit comes into you: [/quote]
It is not different brother. It is the same and it happens once and you will no that something has happened.

1. At salvation, He comes as the Spirit of Life to impart you with the Life of God to live a new life in Christ. [/quote] True, but it is once and He also come with all package including power.

2. At the Holy Ghost baptism, He comes as the Spirit of Power to fill you with the Power of God to live a victorious life as a Christian in this perverse world.

[/quote]

True as well, but it is once and He comes with all package... Life, wisdom, knowledge, understand, might, power and of the fear of the Lord. There is no double coming of the Holy Spirit into man.

I don't know maybe you're one who only believes what you think or what the Bible says:

My very close friend received the Holy Ghost when we were prayed for. I didn't receive that day. I received the Holy Ghost in my room many months later in 1999.

Anyone who confesses Jesus as Lord is a Believer and has the Spirit of God in him. The next stage afterwards is the Baptism. Read the Bible my friend, especially the Acts of Apostles. I'm not a conventional Christian. If you believe in the Bible and not just on your own thoughts, I would show you numerous scriptures regarding this. But since I do not know your stand, I'll just show you something in Acts 19. Paul met some Believers in Acts 19:2 and asked them "Have you received the Holy Ghost since ye believed?" Read below:

Acts 19:1-7

""And it came to pass, that, while Apollos was at Corinth, Paul having passed through the upper coasts came to Ephesus: and finding certain disciples, He said unto them, Have ye received the Holy Ghost since ye believed? And they said unto him, We have not so much as heard whether there be any Holy Ghost. And he said unto them, Unto what then were ye baptized? And they said, Unto John's baptism. Then said Paul, John verily baptized with the baptism of repentance, saying unto the people, that they should believe on him which should come after him, that is, on Christ Jesus. When they heard this, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. And when Paul had laid his hands upon them, the Holy Ghost came on them; and they spake with tongues, and prophesied. And all the men were about twelve."


Read Acts 8 where Philip evangelized in Samaria and got many who gave their lives to Christ. The apostles heard in Jerusalem that people in Samaria had given their lives to Christ, they then came to Samaria and laid their hands on them that they might receive the Holy Ghost.

Please read the Bible. We Christians have the Bible as our final authority on any subject matter. We don't live by some head knowledge.

This scripture proves my point gloriously. Paul met some disciples who have been converted on false teaching mixed with a little bit of Jesus Christ here and there.
✝ Acts 19:3

"And he said unto them, Unto what then were ye baptized? And they said, Unto John's baptism."

KJV Bible

This was the root and reason why they haven't received the awesome Holy Spirit of Jesus and God. False teaching in the garment of the true gospel package using the beautiful name of Jesus. Paul had to simply redirect them to the truth and they received the Holy Spirit and they knew they had received something. The Holy Ghost did not sneak into them like someone hiding from the police.

Acts 19
4. (5-7) And they were. As soon as they heard of it, they were baptized in the name of the Master Jesus. Paul put his hands on their heads and the Holy Spirit entered them. From that moment on, they were praising God in tongues and talking about God's actions. Altogether there were about twelve people there that day. (Message Trans)

Regarding the Samaritan's unique situation, we might not truly know why God in his infinite wisdom decided to withhold his Spirit from them, until the coming of the apostles from Jerusalem. But one thing is crystal clear. They received the Holy Spirit when Peter and John came and they knew they received Someone.
The Samaritans hasn't received the Holy Spirit prior the coming of Peter and John so this negate your argument that one can receive the Holy Spirit coded and at another time receive His baptism again. Receiving the Holy Spirit is a one time thing. If you have received Him, you have received Him and you will definitely know, that is my point.

FxMasterz:


The feeling is mutual. A circling cool breeze blowing around you in such a gentle manner while you feel a wave rising in your heart and then running through your body from head to toe with a mixed sensation of mild coldness and fire. Yeah, that's the Holy Spirit moving upon you.

I appreciate God for your experience my brother. Many so called Christians are mere church goers who do not have the Holy Ghost in them.

A little point of correction please. Once you give your life to Christ, the Holy Spirit immediately comes to dwell in you. You are Christ's from then on even though you're not yet baptized in the Holy Ghost. When you get baptized in the Holy Ghost, you're now dwelling in the Holy Spirit and the Holy Spirit also dwelling in you. This goes beyond merely having the Holy Spirit dwelling in you at salvation. This fulfils the Words of the Lord Jesus when He said:

“At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and YE IN ME AND I IN YOU.” John 14:20.

I don't understand what you mean by giving your life to Christ. I held this believe before but not anymore, I have discarded it. It is Jesus Christ that died for us and not the other way round. Regarding the precious Holy Spirit of Christ, He doesn't come in instalment.

This is the teaching that so many have been deceived by. Nothing like you give your life to Christ the Holy Spirit will sneak in quietly and you start to wait for baptism of the Holy Ghost again. When the heart truly believes you will experience the baptism of the Holy Spirit without praying for it like they do today in so many gathering centers called church. The Holy Spirit is too great to sneak in unnoticed. My friend in redemption of Jesus Christ, though I am still learning through the guidance of the Holy Spirit in me, but on this matter, this is the truth.

How I received the Holy Spirit.
People loved by God, I want to share my experience of me receiving the Holy Spirit which is the stamp of us belonging to Jesus Christ and to God. Romans 8:9 says, " But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. NOW IF ANY MAN HAVE NOT THE SPIRIT OF CHRIST, HE IS NONE OF HIS.
The Spirit of God layed it heavy in my heart ❤️ to preach this.... Oh you church goer, oh you Redeemer attendee, oh you Winners attendee, oh you chosen mopol, oh you Catholic goer. This is a life and death question. Do you have the Spirit of Christ in you? No matter the Church you attend, it is also a question for you as well. If you don't Have Him, you don't belong to Him and on the day of His wrath, you will be casted away like those who have deceived themselves in their heart that there is no God. If you can't beat your chest and say, yes I have the Holy Ghost, then you don't have Him.

The Spirit of God is not a person you will have and you will not know. You will surely know because the signs will be there. The Spirit of God is not someone you will have and your life and body will remain the same. You will surely know that you have not just a visitor, but now a permanent resident. It is impossible for the Holy Ghost to be in you and you will be unaware. The great Spirit of the Great God! The Creator of all things both visible and non visible. The earliest disciples knew. Those who have Him today knows as well. Don't leave your life thinking you are on the right path that leads to life, not knowing that you are on your way to damnation.

Let me share my experience of the very day the Holy Spirit came into me. At first, I didn't understand what was happening because no one was there to teach me. He came upon me like anointing. I was alone in the room, humming my believe in Jesus Christ sacrifice for me as I always do. I felt something dropping on my head. It was as if someone was emptying a gallon of olive oil on my head. I look up to the roof of my room to check if it was from there, but I was disappointed. My room was not licking and rain was not falling that day either. I was shocked and amazed at the same time. I didn't know what was happening but I liked the feeling that came with it. The more I hum and declare what Jesus has achieved for me at the cross the dropping intensified. Glory to Jesus Christ who has redeemed me from the Law now and ever. Amen.

Till today I still experience the anointing of the Holy Ghost and Flashes of light. I may stay in my room now and feel the amazing and soothing wind of the Holy Spirit blowing on my skin especially whenever I engage in praise and worship thanking Jesus for my salvation in Him.

Note: all the doors and windows are usually closed, so is not our natural earthly breeze.... This is an eternal reality for those who have Him. We are forever yoked together... Glory to God who made it possible. With the Arrival of the Holy Spirit comes clarity with the true gospel. I began to understand that all I have been thought in church why growing up are wrong. I now understand with firm conviction that through Jesus I am made right with my Heavenly Father now and forever. Friends in God's redemption, examine now your believe and be sure you are believing the write thing and as you do I see the Holy Ghost rushing into your life. The Spirit of God is eager and anxious to be in you, with you and upon you. He can't simply wait for you to believe the right message. Have you ever seen a man waiting for his lover to come home so that they can be together? How anxious and eager they always are. that is how and even more anxious the Holy Spirit who raised Jesus Christ from the dead is to come to you.

I was once a Catholic goer. I could not receive the Spirit then because I was still believing God can forgive my sins through my confession or through my penance while sprinkling a bit of Jesus here and there.

The third person will be fanning the two seated on the throne.

😁😁😁... This made me laugh so hard.

The search is over. The indestructible life is yours for the taking. Believe today that the obedience of Jesus Christ unto death is yours.

The Young Rich Ruler Matthew 19vs16-26.
So many of us are like this young ruler who came to Jesus Christ to ask a good question.... A million dollar question! A life changing and Immortality question. What must I do so that I may have eternal life? Almost, if not all of mankind has asked this question in each age and century. I don't know about you, I have asked it so many times until God in his unending mercy showed me the answer. Oh thank you Jesus Christ, for through his obedience unto death I have eternal life... Glory!

The man was rich and well to do but the he sensed that there was something still missing in him. He did well to look for it, but he did it the wrong way. He asked what must I do to have eternal life? Jesus pointed the commandments to him.

But for a moment he amazed Jesus. Note: the man was not lying when he said he has kept those commandments, because if he was lying, Jesus would have known. For a moment, we thought we found a person who can be justified and made right through their own obedience. For a Moment, we taught we have found some one who doesn't need Jesus Christ.... For a moment, we thought we have found some one whom has made God a liar. Wheew!! Suddenly, Jesus gave him another law, if that be perfect go and sell all you have and give it to the poor, and thou shall have treasure in heaven: and come and follow me. This was like a bomb shell unto him. For he has great riches.



Do you no why it will be hard and not impossible for a rich man to believe in Jesus Christ, because by believing in Him you will have eternal life. it is because of their mentality... They always think they can do all things either by their exalted self or by their money. The message Bible describes it better,
Jesus looks hard at them and said, "No chance at all if you think you can pull it off yourself. Every chance in the world, if you trust God to do it." (Matthew 19vs26). Hurray!!! indeed, God has done it through the obedience of Jesus Christ his Son.

The sin of that young rich ruler is pride and haughtiness... He was boastful of his ability to do it. I believe, he didn't even allow Jesus to conclude and he boasted that he has been keeping it from the days of his youth. He was even asking what is left in boastful tone.

Jesus was not after how well he kept those laws. But I believe if we have to scrutinize how perfectly he kept it. He would have fallen short of it like all men. Let us take fornication for example: it is not when we fornicate physical with a woman on our bed that is only being counted. If you look at a woman lustful in your heart. It is counted that you have committed fornication. Some of us, if not all men are guilty of this(I inclusive 😭😭). When we see a beautiful woman, we will UnCloth her in our mind and soul, before taking part in the physical aspect of it.

So we all are guilty as charged by the Holy and Righteous God. but Glory to Jesus Christ who has redeemed us through his obedience

Why seek for 3k, when you can have the source and creator of wealth dwelling in you and enriching and enlarging your coast.

I have witnessed christians die while seeking for a miracle, and here u r telling me this bs
By the way, today is remaining 9 hrs or so. So I'm wait for this miracle. Hope you won't turn out like the other clowns

You have witnessed believers in the wrong message die while waiting for a miracle. Believers in the finished work of Jesus Christ don't wait for miracles, they are miracles. They work and breathe supernatural because they have the source of miracle in them. The whole power of God is in them working in and through them. Glory to Jesus Christ my and your redeemer.

As for the miracle wait for it is coming in the name of Jesus Christ my redeemer. Amen. But believe me the total and full package is better.

What do mean they had no excuse? Jesus wasn't even born yet not to mention that the "Good News" never reached them.
Also it took over a thousand years for the "Good News" to get to our ancestors (Through the arrival of the colonial powers).

Read the scripture I attached... Romans 1:9

jaephoenix:

U r not serious. I am almost 50 years and yet to see a miracle and u r here telling me to be patient

You will see it today in your life and you will come back to testify in the name of Jesus Christ my redeemer and yours as well. Amen.

But in other for you to live all through your life in miracles you have to believe in Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior who died to connect you back to God. This is the only way to enjoy the supernatural and glorious life of God Almighty.

jaephoenix:

Ok. So where are the miracles? I can't see any testimonies

Patient is a virtue, my friend in redemption plan of our Lord Jesus Christ.

The way these chrissies think there is power in their words makes me believe religion is legalized mental disorder. Cos u can't tell me a sane person believes his words can bring money, health, healing, and that he hears and talks to an invisible being. In psychiatry, these are delusions of power and auditory hallucinations. These are hallmarks of psychosis. Na wao

There is power in my words because I have the life and power of God through the death of Jesus Christ.
There is power in my declaration because I have the Spirit of God in all his might, glory and power dwelling graciously in me.
There is power in my words and declaration because I operate in the authority of Jesus Christ my God who created all things in heaven and the earth. Glory to Jesus Christ now and forever.

There is power in my words because I believe in Jesus Christ. There is power in my words because I have been redeemed through the precious blood of Jesus Christ.
There is power in my words because I am a bearer of the message of power, glory and might.

You want to help those drowning while you're still inexperienced in swimming!

Christ is my experience.... The Spirit of God in me is my experience... Glory to Jesus Christ my redeemer now and forever. Amen

jaephoenix:

What worked?

The power of Jesus upon the truth is working. The power and immortal life of God in me is working through me. The overflow of miracles and testimony upon this thread will prove it to the glory of Jesus Christ my redeemer. Era of all talk and no power has come and gone. The gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ is revived once again.

MaxInDHouse:


You are just a step away from ATHEISM because you have no knowledge of what you want to defend.

The power of God giving to me through the death of Jesus Christ will do the defending my friend in redemption. It is time for power and might for the kingdom of God is not in arguments but in power. Be still and see the power and might of Jesus Christ and his sacrifice... Glory to Jesus now and forever.

Everyday247:
What about those that died before Jesus died. Are they saved too?

Romans 1:19---For what can be known about God is made plain to them because God has shown it to them. The sacrifice of Jesus Christ at the tree covers those who died in believe of God who created the heavens and the earth before the coming of the gift of God. As for those who died not believing in God who created the heavens and the earth, they had no excuse.

Everyday247:
No be my words na your own words. You been talk say dem no believe una cuz no proof. And then you proceeded to try and show proof. It didn't work.
So what are you talking about?

It worked and will always work now and forever and you will see testimonies from East, West, North and South and you will be amazed... Glory to Jesus Christ who died for me and you. Amen

Why so much unbelief?
1 Corinthians 4:20 For the kingdom of God is not in words, but in power.

The reason there is so much Atheist today is because we that claimed to believe have not been showing working. We only talk and talk but no power. How can we even show workings and power when we don't have it? How can we have it when we are believing the wrong message today. Our wrong believe is robbing us of the power of God working through us. Our opening scripture made us to understand that the kingdom of God is not in mere cho cho, but in power.

One thing that was common with the earliest apostle is that they showed working and power. Apostle Paul showed verifiable power that the unbeliever wanted to even commit blasphemy by worshipping him as a god (Acts 14:11-13). Peter did same and all who believe the right messages. Jesus promised us that we can show power and even greater power that he did while on earth(John 14:12). Jesus wasn't blabbing when he said this because he knows the same power he has will come up on us when we believe in Him and we will be able to do this things effortlessly. We have left the message that give this kind of power and turn to motivational speaker on the pulpit. But I thank the Lord Jesus whom through His death, I now have the life of God now, that the true message is being revived now all over the world. Friends in redemption of Jesus Christ, the power of God is real more than the air we breathe.

If you are reading this now and you are suffering from any kind of sickness and disease in your body. I declare by the power of God upon my life and in the name of Jesus our redeemer be healed now. It is done.

please, leave your testimony on the comment section so that through your testimony many will come to believe. Don't be stingy. Freely you have received, freely you also give. Glory to Jesus Christ my kinsman redeemer now and forever, Amen.

I don't need to defend the truth. The truth will defend itself. My Job is to speak it... Proclaim it and relax. The Gospel of Jesus Christ and his finished work is the most powerful force in heaven and earth. The gospel of Jesus and his sacrifice is not defenceless. The gospel of Jesus Christ and his sacrifice is not weak but potent. Glory to Jesus Christ who died for me and you. Amen.

Everyday247:
I had cough before reading this, but now it's gone. I think you cured it






















Nope, the cough is still there. 😏

It is expected. As it was in the days of Jesus, so will it be today. The mockers will mock, but the truth shall defend itself and you and your likes will see it and marvel.
