If true, how do they want to do it?
By stealing ballot boxes or forcing people to vote APC?

It's difficult reading you.
I thought you could appreciate issues but I was wrong.
How can I explain to you when you clearly don't understand that not all wrongs were punished in the Bible?

You couldn't also glean by yourself that God's plan for marriage is originally ONE MAN , ONE WOMAN. What do you want to understand?
If you can't understand the simple things I wrote before, then you won't be able to understand more.

I don't argue.
I only asked that you provide a Bible verse where God changed the standard of ONE MAN ,ONE WOMAN you are busy raising something else.

If you want to discuss Bible, quote scriptures abeg

[quote author=somehow =112405367]So you're assuming or concluding what I should understand and not?

I'm not the one linking yahoo to stealing, it's English and the law.

Fraud is a kind of stealing, and yahoo is fraud. I believe I'm not talking to someone who just wants to argue?

People committed similar things to yahoo in the bible and got punished, same can't be said of Polygamy. Your explanations are simply from your own head without any evidence from the Bible.

Everything else you wrote are just your opinion since you can't even give a simple answer nor quote anywhere in the bible where anyone was punished for polygamy nor even rebuked due to polygamy. (Both in old and new).

In view of you arguing without biblical evidence linking polygamy to sin, I take my leave.[/quote]

The Northern Christian no get name or picture?

You won't be able to understand that it is either.

You are the one linking Yahoo to stealing.
But can you state an express command against it?
That'd be too subjective and I don't do that when I'm discussing bible.

When I say you need understanding, I know what I meant.

If you read in between the line, you'll see the answer.

He who made them in the beginning, made them MALE And FEMALE.

In the new testament, it is husband love your wife.
All this insinuations have no biblical basis.

Marriage started simply because God realized it is not good for man to be alone. God could have made more than one woman as wives for Adam but did He?

There's God's standard and man has his desires.When man goes to satisfy his fleshly desires(lusts) against God's standard, it is SIN.

You can decide to stay unmarried if you can BUT you can't be polygamous as a Christian. Except you can provide
a bible verse stating otherwise.

People restricting monogamy to Bishops and Deacons don't understand the Bible. God's standard for every believer is Himself and every believer is a Priest unto God.

As Bishop is expected to be an ambassador, every believer is expected to be too.

No serious minded believer sees this as a topic. All this comes up when the flesh is leading.

Christians are not led by the flesh.
As many that are led by the Spirit, they are the sons of God.


I don't need to define sin to you if you are a child of God.


The issue of punishment will lead us to another topic.
Because, if you read your Bible, you would have read "that some men's sins aren't judged immediately". 1 Timothy 5:24

Lest I forget, why do you need to be polygamous as a Christian?

somehow:
You didn't answer me.

Yahoo is linked to stealing, fraud and covetousness.
There are examples of those who did something similar to yahoo in the bible and their punishment was also recorded.

IS Polygamy a sin or what sin is it linked to?
Who was punished for being a polygamist in the bible.

Lets concentrate on this and leave out time wasting.

Unfortunately, people can die on the pulpit. The important thing is, was she prepared to meet her maker?

Service in God's house is secondary and can be useless because God accepts a person before He accepts their gifts.
Genesis 4:4

Summary,
If you are a worker in any Church and you are NOT born again, you dey punish yourself o.

And when dem born dis one dem do naming ceremony o

If women dey talk she too go put mouth

Beauty no be character o...rather it's the other way round

Understanding is key in whatever you do bro.
Grace is no permission to sin.
These topics are deeper than what the guy I answered understands.

Grace enables us to say NO to sin- Titus 2:11

Finally, the bolded isn't true.When you get saved, your understanding is different.The word of God, which is a light to our path, becomes clearer because the Holy Spirit in you teaches you.
If you start waiting for express command, you won't see beyond the letters.You won't see where "Yahoo" is written in the Bible.

somehow:
But is polygamy a sin in the first place?

To break a command, that command must be expressly stated to be a command.

In all the commands in the bible, no where was polygamy listed as a sin even in Galatians.

Lastly, on the issue of automatically breaking other commands immediately you break one, where does that leave even you?

I want to believe you know the difference between law and grace and what Jesus came to establish?

At least he'd upgrade you na.
Not sure Nigeria has a minister for gutter affairs yet

NLC still dey?

So if e no come London, you no go give am money?
All this show no dey necessary, "Pastor"

The one wey concern me be
How dem dey pronounce that name?

She don tire?

Who be Namdas?

There's no case that can't be argued.. And Falana isn't the brightest lawyer out there.Just that he is vocal and always in the news

Springboot:
It will be very difficult to argue against this particular one because it's so clear, you will fill somone just added it, try and read it up.

Hmmmm

What an Amana and mutunci

Great

You sef dey see the boldness and muscle he uses to misquote and misapply scriptures?

SWATMan:
You are the one that should stop deceiving others with your empty gospel.

However, the important thing is

1.The Priest was right and,
2.It's clear your opinions lacks biblical basis. Hence,should remain yours

Kikikiki
I don't argue, I discuss.
There's a difference

I'm glad you realized this thinking will lead you no where..

Kobojunkie:
I am afraid I am done with this "road to nowhere" at this point. Since it has become more than apparent you are in this again today, to argue for the sake of arguing, I would rather go off elsewhere.

Shifting posts?
You are viewing it as an argument but my mission to to flay you.

I have been asking questions to be sure what you mean but you keep evading them with ambiguous explanations.
Check my questions and tell me if you answered them

Kobojunkie:
Go back through this entire conversation to see how you have been shifting goalposts in order to escape having to facts the Truths from scripture placed before you.

Here's what I posted to ask you some comments ago..

---

Again...When Jesus Christ declared Sexual lust in one's heart, after a woman, sin in Matthew 5 vs 27 - 28, for instance, how many sins do you think that amounts to?

Sin is defined as direct disobedience of God's commandment.

---

This right before you decided to shift the discussion to the breaking of commandments, this without in fact answering the question asked..

Friend, forget all this attempt to waste time.
James 2:10 is clear.
You wanted to know how I arrived at breaking one law can be same as committing uncountable sins.Your reference was Sexual lust.I don't need to explain in details. I just asked "ever read James 2:10?"

The John 16:8 was to help you know the HolySpirit does a better work of defining sin..NOT your textbook definition that couldn't help you answer a simple question for 10mins

Kobojunkie:
1. Go back to read what Jesus Christ actually said in John 16 so you can understand what He meant instead of what you pretend here.

2. You did make it up as what James said isn't what you claimed at all.

Remember how we got to this point in the conversation before you attempted to wriggle in by claiming James instead said there were uncountable sins, which turned out to be a lie?

I had told you that sin was not arbitrarily defined, and explaned there where God gave to us about 100 commandments in the New Covenant, it meant that there where about 100 sins in the New Covenant. But you attempted to argue instead that that wasn't the case and went as far as to introduce James' statement as support for your claim that there were uncountable sins.

However, James instead affirmed my point that there are only as many sins as are defined by God in His particular Law.

I expected you to have read what Jesus said about the Holy Spirit about convicting the world of sin and teaching us ALL things
So you thought I made that up?
Guy you no dey read your Bible o..but I understand you read it the wrong way.

Reading the Bible for argument sake or showoff would surely embarrass you.

Honestly,
It's clear why you can't know or understand the word of God because you don't even know that it doesn't make sense to the carnal man and it's Spiritually discerned.

Kobojunkie:
Since your definition of sin does not seem to be according to God's own declaration, ofcourse I can't understand it since what I have understanding of is God's Word, not the lies of men.

Breaking just one command equals breaking all

Is that difficult to understand? Or you just want to argue?

Kobojunkie:
You know simple human language comprehension is what it takes to understand what is written in scripture..

Here's what James said to you in His epistle instead of what you claim..
Now read the above passage and tell me how it corresponds to any of what you have claimed so far?

Ever read James 2:10?

Kobojunkie:
Ok. I will bite again... How does breaking Jesus Christ's one law on adultery in Matthew 5 vs 27 - 28 result in this multitudes of sins you claim?

Where in scripture did God or Jesus Christ in form you that when you commit one sin, you commit this multitudes/uncountable sins you seek of?

You can't understand what sin is, until the Holy Spirit teach you.

I deliberately ask those basic questions to show you that all those dictionary definition of sin, law etc are too basic.
And you need understanding.

Or you thought I learnt this from books or Church?

There are things you can NEVER KNOW no matter what you read.
Spiritual things are spiritually discerned and God's Word is Spirit and life.

I just told you but you failed to see it.
Breaking one law, can result in multitudes of sins...uncountable.

Kobojunkie:
Again...When Jesus Christ declared Sexual lust in one's heart, after a woman, sin in Matthew 5 vs 27 - 28, for instance, how many sins do you think that amounts to?

To help you, understanding the law is key. All the laws are summarized into one.
So reason, how many sins can result from breaking one commandment?

Kobojunkie:
You need to engage your brain in this abeg!

When Jesus Christ declared Sexual lust in one's heart, after a woman, sin in Matthew 5 vs 27 - 28, for instance, how many sins do you think that amounts to?
