NiklauseFred:Loving and obeying Jesus is the perfect solution bro, not psychological gimmicks or techniques. I used to be miserable with anger and unforgiving attitudes. But now, I perceive people sometimes get frustrated after failing to get me angry or offended for selfish reasons: cos I am crucified with Christ. God bless. |

Why do you want people to respect you? That won't solve anything... You would only end up with false comfort and happiness that won't last. It's not wise to be enslaved by people's opinions. There is something that is far more important, friend. God bless. |
Jas.4.13 - Come now, you who say, "Today or tomorrow we will go to such and such a city, spend a year there, buy and sell, and make a profit"; Jas.4.14 - whereas you do not know what will happen tomorrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapor that appears for a little time and then vanishes away. Jas.4.15 - Instead you ought to say, "If the Lord wills, we shall live and do this or that." Jas.4.16 - But now you boast in your arrogance. All such boasting is evil. |
Olabaje Okay... I'll send you the link; you may remove your number from your post above. |
1John.2.3 - And how can we be sure that we belong to him? By obeying his commandments. 1John.2.4 - If someone says, "I belong to God," but doesn't obey God's commandments, that person is a liar and does not live in the truth. 1John.2.5 - But those who obey God's word really do love him. That is the way to know whether or not we live in him. 1John.2.6 - Those who say they live in God should live their lives as Christ did. |
Kobojunkie:Hello brother, you need not quote me anymore. I was already done with you; was why I said "goodbye" and I didn't quote you too. Anyway, thanks for talking to me. One more time, goodbye... |
Heb.10.38 - Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man DRAW BACK, my soul shall have "no pleasure" in him. Heb.10.39 - But we are not of them who draw back unto PERDITION; but of them that believe to the SAVING of the soul. |
Heb.10.38 - And a righteous person will live by faith. But I will have NO pleasure in anyone WHO TURNS AWAY." Heb.10.39 - But we are not like those who turn their backs on God and seal their fate. We have faith that assures our salvation. |
Kobojunkie:All right brother... But as for me and maybe few others who are like minded would rather like to focus more on this word of Jesus: Matt.24.13 - But he that shall ENDURE unto the END, the same shall BE SAVED. Goodbye. |
Heb.10.26 - Dear friends (CHRISTIAN friends), "IF WE" DELIBERATELY CONTINUE SINNING after we have received a full knowledge of the truth, there is NO other sacrifice that will cover these sins. Heb.10.27 - There will be nothing to look forward to but the terrible expectation of God's judgment and the raging fire that will consume his enemies. Matt.24.13 - But he that shall ENDURE unto the END, the same shall be SAVED. |
Kobojunkie:Hello... Surely not to argue with you, but IF you wish to have a rethink on what you said about salvation which you probably got from a great preacher or church where the opinions of the Pastor or Founder is more important than the scriptures. Then Why not ask JUDAS and DEMAS about SALVATION even after being saved at first? Were they always saved? Do you think the likes of Judas and Demas would believe the always saved gospel now? It's just the doctrine of the devil and his false prophets... 2Tim.4.10 - for Demas has FORSAKEN me, having LOVED this present WORLD. (like it says Love NOT the World) You remember Jesus told people to Go And Sin NO MORE, or else a worse thing happens (the worst is going to Hell). More: Heb.6.6 - if they FALL AWAY, to renew them again to repentance, since they crucify again for themselves the Son of God, and put Him to an open shame. Luke.8.13 - But the ones on the rock are those who, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no root, who BELIEVE FOR A WHILE and in time of temptation FALL AWAY. Gal.5.21 " ... that they (WHO ARE "THEY"? Paul was talking to Galatian Christians, not unbelievers) which do such things SHALL NOT inherit the kingdom of God. MOREOVER Heb.10.26 - Dear friends (CHRISTIAN friends), "IF WE" DELIBERATELY CONTINUE SINNING after we have received a full knowledge of the truth, there is NO other sacrifice that will cover these sins. Heb.10.27 - There will be nothing to look forward to but the terrible expectation of God's judgment and the raging fire that will consume his enemies. All right, that's just in case you want to believe God's words; otherwise, like I said, I don't argue. I don't need to win ANY argument. You can believe what you want, brother. What I need is mercy and grace to endure till the End; not about winning empty arguments. Like Jesus said: Matt.24.13 - But he that shall ENDURE unto the END, the same shall be SAVED. (So, what happens if they don't? I think we know the answer.) ANYWAY Rev.22.11 - Let the one who is doing wrong continue to do wrong; the one who is vile, continue to be vile; the one who is good, continue to do good; and the one who is holy, continue in holiness." Rev.22.12 - "See, I am coming soon, and my reward is with me, to repay all according to their deeds. Thanks awitness41. May Jesus bless and give us all light |
Jesus already warned that Deception is the major mark of the last days, and the only solution is to love and obey the truth, words of Jesus. Below are some of those common signs of Deception: 1. Thinking that salvation is just by repeating the sinners prayer, attending and being a loyal member of a church or pastor, without continually obeying the words of Jesus as recorded in the new testament. 2. A person is deeply deceived when he/she thinks asking God for forgiveness constantly without truly forsaking the sins, could make up for obedience to Jesus, and living to please God. 3. Another level of deception is when we think we can bribe God by preaching, fasting and praying, doing lots of church activities and doing good in general. Obedience is better than sacrifice. 4. That one can love Money and God at the same time. They are opposites. It's best to make money a servant and God the Master; not the other way round. 5. That one could be a friend of the world and God at the same time. 7. That people's opinions are very important. 8. That one's financial prosperity, healing, and blessings means God is happy and pleased with the person. God gives freely to All, the good and evil. Of course, even the devil can mastermind what are sometimes called God's blessings. 9. That it's God's blessings to be famous and well loved by the world. 10. That once saved you are always saved. Jesus said people would end up in hell if they do not stop sinning. 11. That it's enough to pay your tithe regularly and go through church routines, even though you live comfortably in willful sins openly or behind close doors. 12. That you're fine with God because you're a Pastor, church worker, church founder or your parents are. The point is whether you and your members do obey Jesus words. If not, you might as well repent of selfishness and love of Money; and tell people the truth in order to escape the coming judgement of God. Matt. 3:4. 13. To think all is well because one belongs to one of the biggest or most influencial churches in the world or country. 14. Loving Jesus without his Cross. Many of us love Jesus but hate his Cross. We are not worthy of Him if we do not take care up the cross. All right, I could have taken a bit of time to back up all points with scriptural passages, but I thought putting few verses down below should be just fine. Matt.7.21 - "Not everyone who says to Me, "Lord, Lord,' shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who DOES the will of My Father in heaven. Matt.10.38 - And he who does not take his cross and follow after Me is not worthy of Me. Matt.6.24 - "No one can serve two masters... ...You cannot serve God and mammon. Jas.4.4 - Whoever therefore wants to be a FRIEND of the world makes himself an ENEMY of God. 2Pet.3.9 - The Lord isn't really being slow about his promise to return, as some people think. No, he is being patient for your sake. He does not want anyone to perish, so he is giving more time for everyone to repent. John.14.15 - "If you love me, obey my commandments. God bless. |
musamadallah:John.14.6 - Jesus said to him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father EXCEPT through Me. John.10.30 - I and My Father are ONE." John.1.1 - In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. John.1.2 - He was in the beginning with God. John.1.3 - All things were made through Him, and without Him nothing was made that was made. John.1.4 - In Him was life, and the life was the light of men. ***NOTE: This is not to argue, dear friend/Brother. Just to let you know what is written about Jesus. Because not many Muslims I have met knew this, and not many are always willing to agree with even the scriptures. If you too don't accept, no problem. Like I said, it is not to argue. Thanks for your time. |
Matthew 24 Matt.24.3. "...TELL US, when will these things be? And what will be the sign of Your coming, and of THE END of the age?" Matt.24.4 - And Jesus answered and said to them: "Take heed that No One DECEIVES you. Matt.24.5 - For many will come in My name, saying, "I am the Christ,' and will DECEIVE MANY. Matt.24.11 - Then many False Prophets will rise up and DECEIVE MANY. Matt.24.24 - For False Christs and false prophets will rise and show GREAT signs and wonders to DECEIVE, if possible, EVEN THE ELECT. (Mark.4.18 - Now these are the ones sown among thorns; they are the ones who hear the word, Mark.4.19 - and the CARES of this world, the DECEITFULNESS of riches, and the DESIRES for other things entering in choke the word, and it becomes UNFRUITFUL.) Matt.24.44 - Therefore you also BE READY, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you DO NOT EXPECT. God bless |
Olabaje:Others too are still waiting. On a WhatsApp group, some are saying it might get postponed if not started on Monday... |
ariikefun:You are all welcome. I hope things went well... |
igwebest23:I have never been in your shoes as a single, but my opinion about marriage is if any of the couple LOVE something else more than each other (part from God), then marital bombs won't be very far away. Something else especially Money, friends (most times, the opposite sex, or ex). I think most marriages is sometimes based on fun, merry, honour, respect, self-satisfaction or awareness, NOT real LOVE. When the Love of Money is in one or both parties: trouble. 1Tim.6.9 - But those who DESIRE to be rich fall into temptation and a snare... 1Tim.6.10 - For the LOVE of money is a root of all kinds of evil... Even genuine human love could fail too, through selfishness and pride of the couple. The only sure type of marriage is that which makes Jesus as master: they both love Jesus supremely, but money and others are mere Servants. We should not focus all our attention on passing things like Beauty, Money, Honour of men, Ego, etc., but Jesus and his Kingdom. I can only advice anyone to seek God and obey him in any situation. Remember, things that are impossible with men are POSSIBLE with God. Don't trust any man including Pastors... May Jesus bless you. |
abiketomi:Welcome |
vicgid:Got this from a group: Good evening, As far as the interview was concern, they will just ask of your name and the course you studied. Any further question will be base on your field except some ICT questions. Micro teaching with the topic of your choice. In my own case after about the two minutes of micro teaching,they told me to ask them question and I did. Some intensional said wrong things and I corrected them. In conclusion A panel of about 7 members asks questions one by one. They ask if one have TRCN. If you have good if not good. Pls arrange the photocopies accordingly as it was listed in the print out for a smooth session. I wish us well going forward |
Preaching and quoting lots of Bible verses alone cannot save anyone, neither is doing lots of church activities the proof of salvation. In fact, many on the pulpit, pastors, choirs, church workers are terribly lost; it was better before they became all that. Many are under the roofs of preaching or memorizing lots of scriptures, and maybe doing lots of church or religious activities as grounds for their righteousness, instead of seeking grace to OBEY Jesus according to the new testament first. John 14:15. If you love me, OBEY my commandments. (NOT about activities or sacrifices first: OBEDIENCE IS BETTER THAN SACRIFICE) Jesus said one's righteousness must be greater than that of the Pharisees (old testament standard) to enter God's kingdom. Which means one has got to be clean inwardly first according to his commands: obedience must be rooted in the heart first, not just outwardly to impress people or get the honour of being such a Holy Person. Jesus spent 30 years living to please the Father without preaching or getting into any ministry, but spent the three and a half years remaining doing his ministry according to the Father's will. We know the stories of people like Solomon, who even wrote scriptures but ended up badly with strange women and idolatry in the process. How about Judas, we sometimes forget that Judas was at some point right with Jesus: he was actually among the Twelve, but greed or the love of MONEY caught up with him. How about the devil? He was actually a great ANGEL before, but Pride stopped his good career with God. There's no time to talk about others like Demas (love of the world), Gihazi (love of Money), Prophet Balaam (love of Money and encouraging fornication in the process), the rich young ruler (love of himself and his possessions MORE than God), etc. Many small and great Pastors or Prophets and church founders today are already following the errors of these mentioned above, even though they might have great Bible knowledge and other gifts. But we should not be DECEIVED by great Bible knowledge or great gifts or signs and wonders. By their Fruits we shall know them, NOT Gifts. A person like Paul was very cautious about these possible errors above, so he said: 1Cor.9.27 - No, I beat my body and make it my slave so that after I have PREACHED to others, I myself will not be DISQUALIFIED for the prize. Hence, we must be sure to WITHDRAW ourselves from such men or women not walking the right path of Jesus. 2Thess.3.6 - But WE COMMAND YOU, brethren, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you WITHDRAW from every brother who walks DISORDERLY and NOT according to the tradition which he received from us (after the life of Christ). Matt.15.14 - LEAVE THEM; they are Blind guides. If a blind man LEADS a blind man, BOTH will fall into a pit (HELL)." Let him/her that has ears to hear, hear... God bless. |
byinks:Hmm... Well, not necessarily speaking for or against the vaccine, just trying to clarify the wrong ideas in connection to the Mark... God bless. |
Matt.24.11 - Then many false prophets will rise up and deceive many. |
There are lots of information, speculations or debates about the vaccine making the rounds recently among people, including believers and pastors that it is the Mark of the Antichrist, and many are getting panicky and confused. It is NOT the Mark just as the wearing of face mask isn't, or the use of antimalarial for malaria. If you're not free in your conscience to take it, then don't; but don't make rules for others not to take it if they feel free to. The vaccine is supposed to be something to prevent the spread of the virus, as much as the use of face masks. It is not yet the time of THE antichrist, he is most likely going be a major world ruler who is going to have power to compel people to worship him. Here: 2Thess.2.3 - Don't be fooled by what they say. For that day (the day of Christ) WILL NOT COME until there is a great rebellion against God and the MAN OF LAWLESSNESS (the Antichrist himself) is revealed--the one who brings destruction. We could as well say this period are the "Pre-Antichrist" periods. What we have now are the LITTLE little Antichrists: THE FALSE prophets/pastors/church founders, etc., who are currently working hard, consciously or subconsciously preparing the way for their MAIN MASTER, THE ANTICHRIST. One example is when we hear of oneness of all religions; coming together for what they call PEACE AND UNITY, and trying to make themselves and their DEEPLY deceived followers believe that they only worship THE SAME god through different means: the ecumenical movement in churches and christian MUSIC industry. Like it says: 1Thess.5.3 - For when they say, "PEACE and SAFETY!" then sudden destruction comes upon them, as labor pains upon a pregnant woman. And they SHALL NOT ESCAPE. AND: Matt.10.34 - Think not that I am come to send PEACE on earth: I came NOT to send PEACE, BUT a Sword. Of course, they worship the SAME god: the Antichrist, who makes THEM terribly rich by deceiving their great crowd of followers who don't love the truth. Jesus is still the ONLY way to God: He said, I am "THE" Way", not "A Way or one of the ways to God" John.14.6 - Jesus told him, "I am THE way, THE truth, and THE life. NO ONE can come to the Father EXCEPT through Me. So, we should believe these great preachers, pastors and church founders of our day at our own risk. Let's have a closer look; my comments in parentheses: 1John.2.18 - Little children, it is the last time: and as ye have heard that antichrist shall come (THE Antichrist himself), even now are there MANY Antichrists (FALSE pastors/church founders); whereby we know that it is the LAST TIME (last days). So, what is the Mark of the Beast? Definitely NOT the vaccine, and if it works well, then I believe its can't be from the destroyer, the devil. The Mark of the Beast is an human number: Rev.13.18 - Wisdom is needed to understand this. Let the one who has understanding solve the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man. His number is 666. This number is symbolic (having special meaning); man was created on the 6th day; 666 means Man trying to become God (The Trinity). 2Thess.2.4 - (the Antichrist) He will exalt himself and defy every god there is and tear down every object of adoration and worship. He will POSITION HIMSELF in the temple of God, claiming that he HIMSELF is God. 2Thess.2.5 - Don't you remember that I told you this when I was with you? Therefore, it is the spirit of the Antichrist that makes great preachers rule people and behave like gods to them today. But WHERE will the Mark BE? Rev.13.16 - He required everyone--great and small, rich and poor, slave and free--to be given a mark on the RIGHT HAND "OR" on the FOREHEAD. Well, we don't know exactly how the Mark or name or sign of the Antichrist will be when it's time. But "symbolically", what is the sign or mark of the Antichrist today? According to the passage, the devil gives people the Choice to either have it on the RIGHT HAND (means secretly), OR on the FOREHEAD (means openly). Hence, the devil says: "Be a SECRET FOLLOWER OF ME (on your right hand), or Be a OPEN FOLLOWER OF ME (on your forehead). Right, we all know the OPEN followers of the devil today: satanists, atheists, idol worshipers, etc. Sadly, TOO MANY of us, church goers or professing christians are SECRET followers of the devil. We look and dress holy, but have somethings of the devil inside. Many brothers and sisters live in serious or causal sexual sins, pornography, anger, greed or love of money, selfishness and pride SECRETLY, but still look pious in church or in public, and won't REPENT. BROTHER or SISTER, you already have the Mark of the Beast on your right hand (in a sense) already, forget about the vaccine. Unless you repent now, and you mean it with all your heart! However, Jesus doesn't give his followers the option to have his mark of righteousness on the right hand, but on the FOREHEAD. It means we can't be secret followers of Jesus, but OPEN FOLLOWERS of him only. We've got to wake up, humble ourselves and seek grace to OBEY Jesus, and escape the corruption of the still to come anti-christ, whose spirit is seriously at work even in Christendom today. 2Thess.2.9 - This evil man (the Antichrist) will come to do the work of Satan with counterfeit power and signs and miracles. 2Thess.2.7 - For this lawlessness (of the Antichrist) is already at work secretly, and it will remain SECRET until the one who is holding it back steps out of the way. Matt.24.11 - And many false prophets will appear and will lead many people astray. Matt.24.12 - Sin will be rampant everywhere, and the love of MANY will grow cold. Matt.24.13 - But those who ENDURE TO THE END WILL BE SAVED. Matt.24.25 - See, I have WARNED you. God bless |
Matt.16.24 - Then Jesus said to His disciples, "If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow Me. Matt.16.25 - For whoever desires to save his life will LOSE IT, but whoever loses his life for My sake will FIND IT. Matt.16.26 - For what profit is it to a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul? Or what will a man give in exchange for his soul? Matt.16.27 - For the Son of Man will come in the glory of His Father with His angels, and then He will reward each according to his works. |
sotall:Good thinking... God bless |

HealerH:Sorry friend, I quite disagree. Not checking or testing them would even be disobedience: Sin. So the title itself is scriptural. It says: 1. BELIEVE NOT every spirit, but "*TEST*" the spirits whether they are of God: because MANY FALSE PROPHETS are gone out into the world. (1 John 4:1). 2. If one's leader is blind, they will both end up in the ditch (hell) Matt. 15:14 3. To WITHDRAW oneself from anyone ( a pastor or not) who walks disorderly. 2 Thess. 3:6 I could continue, but let me close with these: Matt.7.15 - BEWARE of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. Matt.7.16 - You WILL KNOW them by their fruits. 2Tim.3.5 - Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such TURN AWAY. Matt.24.4 - And Jesus answered and said to them: "TAKE HEED THAT NO ONE deceives you. Matt.24.5 - For MANY will come in My name, saying, "I am the Christ,' and will DECEIVE MANY. God bless |
danvon:Not all friend, just that they are very very few, and they are scattered around the world; not usually well-known, great, rich or liked by people. In Nigeria, I can think one fairly-known preacher: bro Gbile Akanni. In india: Zac poonen. They are all over, but are not usually that popular and stinkingly rich. God bless. |
It's not very difficult to know actually, especially if WE ARE NOT FAKES OURSELVES. The Bible says, "Deep calls unto deep". So we might as well say, "Fakes call unto fakes". Personally, over the years I have found that far too many Pastors/Prophets/Church founders are fakes, which is usually exposed particularly in their attitudes to Money and Popularity. Jesus said one could not serve two masters: God plus Money, or God plus People and their praises or acceptance. When I stumble on a preacher, I don't just want to focus on his correct doctrines or Bible quotations, but to rather sense his spirit. Is he an example of Jesus like Paul, Peter, John, etc. Or just another common example of some great American preacher or international Church founder? Many of us are deceived by correct words, religious activities, wonders, signs, prosperity, etc. Well, even the devil can contain ALL of that, but how about Christlikeness: humility, holiness, loving God above money, people and all other things of the world? I think we know the answer! It says narrow is the way and few find it. If we don't accept the truth, then we DESERVE to be DECEIVED. If we love the truth, we would be blessed with the gift to discern between the wrong and the right; Jesus servants and Antichrists in sheep's clothing. Matt.24.24 - For there shall arise FALSE Christs, and FALSE prophets, and shall shew GREAT signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall DECEIVE THE VERY ELECT. BUT, John 14:15 - If you love me obey my commandments (as written in the new testament). God bless |
