[quote author= post=74288992]Old things have passed away.” The “old” refers to everything that is part of our old nature—natural pride, love of sin, reliance on works, and our former opinions, habits and passions. Most significantly, what we loved has passed away, especially the supreme love of self and with it self-righteousness, self-promotion, and self-justification. The new creature looks outwardly toward Christ instead of inwardly toward self. The old things died, nailed to the cross with our sin nature.[/quote]Even at that works can never be exempted.. |
HarkymTheOracle:We're not all sinners, there's nothing like that in the scriptures.. |
. |
TATIME:It's a shame that you didn't heed the call when you're invited, I guess must have been more enlightened.. Kpele Mr name defender.. |
TATIME:To you, those he's talking to understand his words. Salvation is personal, so cut the deception about been a slap on Christianity. God won't judge us collectively because we're Christians, it's personal.. If yours pastors can't speak against evil not my problem, God is no respecter of persons or a collective name been used to call some set of people.. So sorry Mr Christian if u think it's slap on you, but you can anyway.. |
TATIME:I would want to believe that you're only shy from calling Jesus stupid in the public when I referred someone to as a betrayal in his disciples with all he taught and prayed for them. You obviously lack proper understanding about the scriptures you're quoting up and down.. |
TATIME:read John 21 you quoted and see the disciples Christ handed over to, even cephas left the commission for fishing, Christ had to ask him 3 times "loved me than these" so what are you saying, or do you think Christ never prayed before Peter was chosen of course no records not everything were recorded in the scripture. He knows what he's saying so what's ur problem with that, saying that is a crime to you. Ur submission is inconsequential after all. |
asuustrike1:They only read a part of the scriptures to criticize... |
TATIME:Quick to reply without deep thought, u might as well call Jesus worthless because Judah was his disciple, or even call God fake because lucifa rebelled against God. They only quote without understanding for cheap likes.. |
OyinO:Get understanding bro. |
Truefaith:Is that all you have got to share? Better pick up ur Bible (kjv} and read and stop promoting ignorance.. |
When will npower beneficiaries remit their own donations.. Awon oniro osi.. |
Omeokachie:Not surprised where this is coming from.. |
OhiOfIhima:Imagine you being attacked by Christians because you're calling prayers in ur mosque for a silly reason of disturbance.. My stance about the religion changed yesterday, anyone practicing that religion has tendency to murder because of Islam.. |
OhiOfIhima:That's lie, Islam is a religion of pains, blood shed...... No body paints it as bad, it's actually bad.. |
You're not a good Christian, what have you now gained bringing strife among people? Obeying the scriptures is by choice, even God himself never forced anyone to do so, he's only admonished us to choose life, so the rest lies with us.. You're not new in the country and this is not the first time this topic of where tithe to be paid to has been raised, opinions of different personalities have been heard, so what's the need asking people to dictate to you where to pay your tithe.. You don't need to bring up issues of divide just to get noticed on social media, or to garner likes and share, don't bring the judgement of God upon urself.. How does this actually edifies the body of christ? Didn't you hear anything else in ur synagogue today and share it with us other than bringing division amongst people? You have not been paying tithe before now, so what's the motive behind ur post. |
tommyken:Your own opinion and you're entitled to it, but ur assertion isn't true, genuine Christians pay tithe in obedience to God's command.. |
DaddyNimo:what part of the old testament portrays this conclusion of urs? |
Wike fall my hands sah, I trust oremekunnu of Ekiti land, he will never welcome President Buhari.. |
vindisick:I would want to believe that you don't know that he's a Briton. |
Nwaohafia1:If you believe that, then you can believe anything then. He said so, in order to dupe you guys and believing biafra passport is recognized outside anambra et al.. Wise up ma. |
Nwaohafia1:You ain't smart at all, he's a Briton, he does not need that green paper called passport to move around, Pele.. |
Fulmigati:nothing to be happy about, I don't harbor hatred like u guys.. |
Fulmigati:who's stopping igbos from going back to their land? Who's forcing them to go to churches founded by Yorubas? Igbos founded churches as well, ur people can quit Yorubas' and join those pastor by igbos.. |
Chaii! Village people don reason this man matter oh.. |
ladiesreject:Masun |
bibiking7:What will you say about El rufai, tinubu and fasola utterances about buhari? Don't try to condemn him because he supports the fellow you don't like.. Try to respect people's choice.. |
TheABOMINATION:Exactly. |
xerxes456:So many teachers have turned the grace to license to do anything, no wonder our society is filled with godless Christians.. Serving God and Mammon together which is not even possible.. |
alBHAGDADI:You have a long way to go my brother, you only want to accept those verses of the scriptures that pamper you, you still wanna be a baby and the Fed with the milk and not the strong meal of the scriptures, and it's not good for ur Christian life. Thank God you cited the lot's wife verse urself, and you read that she and and her people were shown the way out and given instructions, but she couldn't.. Just like we are given the word today as well, and only the people that endue to the end would be saved, Matthew 10:22 And ye shall be hated of all men for my name's sake: but he that endureth to the end shall be saved. 1 Peter 4:18 And if the righteous scarcely be saved, where shall the ungodly and the sinner appear? You see the categories of spiritual state of man there? Believing alone is not enough my dear brother, see these verses, Christ himself made it clear here John 15:1 I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. 15:2 Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit. 15:3 Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you. 15:4 Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. 15:5 I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing. 15:6 If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned... If once save forever saved is the real word.. Read psalm 51, and see the prayer of a righteous king David, the man after God's heart. The Bible say God is too holy to behold sin to the extent of forsaken his only son on the cross because he carried my sin and urs on the cross of cavalry and borne all for us, and you expect that same God to fixed his eyes on u, pampering while u live in a iniquity after u claimed to have known Christ? My brother it's not true, our salvation is eternal but conditional we either abide in him after which we declare for the him and do the will of the Father with the help of christ or we go backslide to our old life style which as well could lead to eternal damnation if will don't run back to the cross.. See these verses as well 2 Peter 2:20 For if after they have escaped the pollutions of the world through the knowledge of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ, they are again entangled therein, and overcome, the latter end is worse with them than the beginning. 2:21 For it had been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than, after they have known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered unto them. 2:22 But it is happened unto them according to the true proverb, The dog is turned to his own vomit again; and the sow that was washed to her wallowing in the mire. It's all depends us, God has done his part.. |
alBHAGDADI:I would want to believe that u open ur Bible and read those citations |
alBHAGDADI:If you claimed that lot's wife was never saved, how did the husband and the children escaped the damnation? Were they not led by the angels and given instructions not to look back? They were saved and rescued by the angels from the destruction but care of the world made her to look back. Same thing to the contemporary Christians, not to allow sin to reign in our mortal body Romans 6 v 12.. Here's the word of the Christ, Luke 9:62 And Jesus said unto him, No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God. I believe you understand this verse as well.. As for the Virgins you're wrong, the word virgin in the Bible is refer to as state of being pure.. So you saying they are not saved is a fallacy, this citation best describe the sate of the 5 foolish virgins. Revelation 3:16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth. |
