Christianity EtcRe: What's Love Got To Do With It? by Boomark(m): 1:19am On Oct 30, 2012
ogoamaka99: @ frosbel,
I mean no offence nor intention to slander your charater wrongly. So don't take it personal, however you will agree with me that more than 85% of the articles credited to your name are copied. Sit down and construct articles if you have knowldge of what you are saying. I strongly believe that when your eyes are opened you will realize all the falsehood you are posting.
The article is a true live story of what is happening to many people today. I have my own share of it too. If you are in the category of 'O yes members' to the pastors you will not understand it.

Even if his articles are 99% copied, my dear i can't wait till he puts his own article together before i read what he has to say relating to the article above. You do Google search and read peoples articles. He does his and spread the info faster cos time no dey again. I read things am lazy to search on my own in this forum.

If you are to share peoples experiences or history, you wount tell us an abstract story from your own imagination. Even if you want to give a summary of it in your own words, you must get it from the original.

All the bible quotes you paste here and there are all copied. You are not the original author.

I smell envy here.

italo: Do you show great respect and devotion to your mother, father, wife, church?



Do your regard your mother, father with honour?



This is your opinion. I will believe it if you can show me where the Bible says that.



Then why is he receiving the prayers of Saints in Rev 5:8? And why did the Israelites have to receive healing from our God by looking at a bronze snake?



"If there are saints..." So you don't know whether there are saints or not. Then how can you know what saints do when you are not even sure if they exist or not? If you don't know something, can't you be quiet and learn from those who know? Must you talk?...especially when you don't know what you are talking about...

Please answer my questions.
I respect and honor my parents. But when i want to worship God, i don't focus on the honor i give them and also on God.

So don't focus on the image and also God when you worship him. It is idol worshiping.

Tell me who the saints are. Are they alive or dead? Do you also have a bronze snake you look unto?

Joagbaje: Giving to the poor existed under the law, so why don't you assume it's wrong now in the new testament?
Yes is under the law and also before the law.

There are two things that will guarantee you everlasting life.
1 love God and
2 love your neighbour(helping the needy and poor).
Lu 10:25-28.
These are the most important things you must do. He laid emphasis on them and they are part of the new covenant. He told his disciples that they will always have the poor to take care of when he is gone.

And if you feel you want to give to the highpriest, this is how you give to him: read mt 25:41-46. Whatsoever you do to the least of my brothers that you do unto me. v46 tells you the consequences because it is very very important. This is the only way you give to High priest. And please don't give him change.

So as you can see it is one of the important things in the new covenant.

Aaah! Headache o! I wunt SMH again.
Christianity EtcRe: Can Tithing Teachers Help Us Explain These Verses by Boomark(m): 6:07pm On Oct 29, 2012
Joagbaje: But did it originate in the law? NO. So the emergence and exit of the law has no relevance. The order of Melchizedek is forever. As long as there's a highpriest ,there will be tithing and offerings. You can't separate the two. They per existed the law.
So the law God gave the Israelites has no relevance? Which means you can pay your tithe any how and any time you want. Enter the temple and offer sacrifice as you want?
SMH!

What is the order of melchizedek that is forever?
Priesthood or tithing?
SMH!

Zikkyy: "[size=14pt]Yes, woe upon you[/size], Pharisees ([size=4pt]joagbaje[/size] grin), and you other religious leaders-- hypocrites! For you tithe down to the last mint leaf in your garden......"

Joagbaje are you saying anytime you read the quote above, you truly feel that it describes you? that Jesus was talking to you?

I know image123 considers himself a pharisee, the reason he's glued to Mathew 23:23 grin

The message in Mathew 23:23 was for Scribes & Pharisees (hypocrites grin), if you believe you belong to the category listed, you can continue to tithe grin
hahaha.

And one of the more important things is giving to the poor. It is under loving your neighbours and more important than your tithe

Answer the questions well and correct you self.

The exodus 19:6 you quoted became fulfilled when the new covenant came to be. 1peter2:9
They are all under the law according to the old covenant. That is why they are observed according to the rules God gave them.
Christianity EtcRe: Can Tithing Teachers Help Us Explain These Verses by Boomark(m): 2:56pm On Oct 29, 2012
Joagbaje: Matthew 23:23. (Living bible)
"Yes, woe upon you, Pharisees, and you other religious leaders-- hypocrites! For you tithe down to the last mint leaf in your garden, but ignore the important things-- justice and mercy and faith. Yes, you should tithe, but you shouldn't leave the more important things undone.


Most religious men value Jesus words more than epistles . But they seem to turn blind eyes to this . Jesus said. We should tithe . Nobody in the bible ever said otherwise . Not even God.
Do you think Christ will rebuke any Jewish priest and tell him stop, I am now the high priest and lord of the Sabbath? Nor will he tell them to stop going to the temple cos he will set up a perfect tabernacle not made with hands for God(Heb 9:11. Tot u said u've read Heb).

Matthew 12:5-8
New American Standard Bible
(NASB)
5 Or have you not read in the Law,
that on the Sabbath the priests in
the temple [a]break the Sabbath
and are innocent? 6 But I say to
you that something greater than
the temple is here.
7 But if you had
known what this means, ‘I
DESIRE [c]COMPASSION, AND NOT A
SACRIFICE,’ you would not have
condemned the innocent.
8 [b]For the Son of Man is Lord of the
Sabbath.”


You guys should start focusing on what is happening in the heavenly temple where Christ is now the high priest according to the new covenant with God and not put your trust on what is happening in the Jewish temple made with hands.
Christianity EtcRe: Can Tithing Teachers Help Us Explain These Verses by Boomark(m): 12:58pm On Oct 29, 2012
Joagbaje: Tithing didnt originate in the law. Melchizedek order was higher in rank than levitical order . Christ is in continuation of Melchizedek order. Levitical order was for jews . Melchizedek was not for jews. Jesus is high priest in order of Melchizedek . This is simple enough. Tithing as a principle existed before the law. Likewise offering and some other spiritual principles . The law was only an interruption , the abolishing of the law does not negate principles which existed before the law. If that's the case , we should do away with offerings ,prayers, etc



God has always seen his people as priests . It's not a new testament thing . The new testament is based on old testament principles.

Exodus 19:6
And ye shall be unto me a kingdom of priests, and an holy nation. These are the words which thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel
.



Men came up with that theory out of their greed or ignorance. There's no reference to such in scripture. Jesus spoke against sabbath and other things , but tithes was never spoken against . But rather endorsed by Jesus

italo: When you say "worship" and "reverence", what do you mean?
By worship i mean showing great respect and devotion to...
By reverence i mean regarding it with honour.

Dictionary will be more helpful. They are some how similar.

Worshiping God in truth and in spirit means that cross and statues should not be any where around you when you worship Him. And you don't use them to feel the pains Christ felt so as to get more connected.

We have a highpriest who gave us personal invitation to God through him, and not to reach our God by using statues or by joining our prayers with any spirit or saint. All He wants is human prayer from human beings. He understands our nature more than any saint and He understands our prayers more than any saint.

If there are saints, they should know more than you that God is not interested in their support for you but He is interest in your commitment. That is why Christ told us that God knows our problems but He wants us to just ask.

Oh lord how i love u!!! If i wrote comic books i would write one on frosbel.
Why not add meaning to what you wrote according to what frosbel said.

What you should have said after laffing in Greek is:
frosbel, if your kid draw triangle and use to it to worship God u will rebuke him because it is illuminati and if he draws the cardinal point and reverence it u will scream babylonian mystery!!

Some thing like this so that your friends will know that your making sense.
We all know what cross, triangles, cardinal points are in our maths and no Christian should bow or reverence them either in paper or as a carved image.

Joagbaje: This is not about what a pastor say. But rather what the bible says . There was never a place where God put an end to tithing . Tithes and offering are for ever .
But The myth I set out the debunk here is the idea that men never gave money as tithe . And I have proven that wrong. Giving of money as tithe is not today affair. I only cited here one of the many reason men gave money in tithes or offerings.
Hebrew 7:12

For the priesthood being changed, of necessity there is also a change of the law.

The old covenant was faulty, the new covenant is perfect.

Christ is now the high priest and we all are priests. So tithe has no place in the new covenant.

Read Hebrew 7 and 8 well.

Christianity EtcRe: A Proposition For Theological Debate by Boomark(m): 7:24am On Oct 29, 2012
According to the Gej analogy we have been using, this is what you meant by the bolded quote in the post above.

Having his fullness as just a son makes him equal to him.
Having his fullness as a servant and as a son at same time makes him lower than him.

It made no sense. It pleases God to dwell in Him(Col 1:19) that is where the fullness came from because He is the temple of God(Jn 2:21), Lord of the Sabbath, greater that the temple in Israel(Mt 12:6-8 )

I hope you know that as it stands now, He is still the High priest in service to God(you should know what high priests does and to whom, if not Google it and read) Heb 2:17.

But the summary of it all is in 1Cor15:27-28 where we started.
When He hands over everything to His God as a subject, God will be all in all. When i mean ALL i mean all in everything without exception.

There will be no need for mediatorship because the promise of bringing man back to God must have been fulfilled. The world would be a perfect place by then my dear.

Some of you might have made the exact image of one the thieves and have been bowing to it because you don't know the exact image of Christ. And Christ will not be happy with that.

Those saying the cross is the symbol of their salvation should be ashamed of themselves. Christ is not the only person that has been nailed on a cross/stake/tree. More thieves and sinners have tasted the cross before then. Read De 21:22-23 where the law was given.

If you don't share the opinion of God Almighty, then you share with the devil. You can't serve two masters at a time. Didn't they teach you that one?

Okay you are a bastard. Prove to me that you are not. If you cannot, it true that you are a bastard.

Your Pope should prove or tell us he didn't say this:
"calling Satan evil is not my personal view"
this amounts to begging satan indirectly. God told us satan is evil so he should stand on it if he is a man of God and not fear the devil.

I hope they will learn that true Christians don't call people fools.
That is one of the attributes of pagans and those that are not in Christ.

It took them decades to know that His name 'Yahweh' should be in the bible and used in praising God. Thanks to Jehovah's witnesses.

I hope it wount take them years to know that the only true God is one and that He sent His only begotten Son Jesus Christ to bring us back to Him. Christ is the only way to the Father, no longer the earthly levites and priests.
Christianity EtcRe: Paganism And Catholicism: Sun Worship Symbols by Boomark(m): 3:32pm On Oct 26, 2012
italo: Perhaps you should check out 1 Cor 1:23. Paul says, "...but we preach Christ crucified..." Why does Paul preach Christ crucified? Doesn't he know Jesus has been raised from the dead? Of course he does! But, he knows that it is through the power of the crucified Christ on the cross that the bonds of sin and death are broken. As Paul says in verse 24, Christ crucified is the "power of God".
1 Cor 2:2, "For I decided to know nothing among you except Jesus Christ and Him crucified." Again, didn't Paul know that Jesus had risen from the dead? Of course, he did.

Paul preaches Christ crucified because an empty cross has no power. The cross that bears the beaten, battered, and bloodied body of Jesus Christ, however, that cross is the "power of God". This is why, we "keep Jesus on the cross," because we, too, preach Christ crucified. The Crucifix reminds us not only of God's power, but also His love for us - giving His only begotten Son up for suffering and death.

Also, here in this life we do not share so much in the glory of the Resurrection, as we do in the suffering of Jesus on the cross; after all, we must take up our cross daily if we are to follow Jesus, as it says in Lk 9:23.

And, we must die with Christ in order to live with Him as Romans 6:8 tells us. Where did Christ die? On the cross. The Crucifix serves to remind us of these things.

One other passage to keep in mind is Galatians 3:1, "O foolish Galatians! Who has bewitched you, before whose eyes Jesus Christ was publicly portrayed as crucified?" Did you catch that? Jesus was publicly portrayed, before their "eyes", as being crucified. Sounds kind of like they may have been looking at a Crucifix, doesn't it?

From biblechristiansociety.com
So before cruxification, God has no power? I tire for you o.

So can you tell us how many crosses he hung in his room?
How many did he use to demonstrate to the people while he preach to them? Because it was very important then for the people to see what happened and how Christ died.

You better start worshiping God in truth and in spirit. Not with images.

italo: I remember you from the other thread wher they lied that the Pope apologized to satan. You were pretending that you were neutral and objective. You said I should just tell you if it is true or not (as if you were really interested in the truth). I remember telling you to read the whole statement on the link that made the allegation. You haven't told me if you have read the link or not, and what conclusions you have been able to draw. Perhaps because you have seen that that one is a lie, you kept quiet about it. Because it is not a weapon you can use to beat The Catholic Church. Now you are here again pretending to look for explanation and clarification.
'calling satan evil is not my personal view'.
Didn't you see that quote?
Any pastor, bishop or Pope that says such a thing will get no respect from me.

It is now left for you Catholics to now prove that op and even this one wrong. If you can't do that then all those thing are true.
