TRUE CHRISTIANS WILL NEVER DO RITUALS. WE SERVE CHRIST AND CHRIST ONLY.

The fact is no matter who a person is, if the person doesn't have Christ as his/her Lord and saviour the person is bound to do anything evil.

JESUS CHRIST IS THE ONLY WAY IN ALL THINGS.

Regardless, be it known unto you and the whole world that "the kingdom of God is at hand".

Repent and be born again today to enjoy eternity in heaven.

Matthew 4:17 From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.
Health / Re: Is Taking A Soft Drink Once In A Day Bad To The Health? by DeRichard(m): 8:19pm On Dec 24, 2021
Truvelisback:
Good day, Fellas. I wanna know whether taking just a soft drink once everyday is bad to the health. From on Sarturday to Monday , i have been taking a soft(40cl Mirinda) along with food every afternoon. It was only yesterday that i didn't take a soft drink. No e be say e no hungry me ooo. I had to forcefully resist the urge of taking it. I felt there could be side effects.

Too much of sugar is not good. The only thing that cannot be too much in consumption is vegetables, fruits and water and maybe protein but you're not to consume too much of carbohydrates, sugar and fats & oil.

Family / Re: My Sister Has Gone Out Of Control by DeRichard(m): 10:53am On Nov 13, 2021
RAFFIZY:
Good day everyone, I want to raise an issue that has been bothering me as a sibling, and also to my parents.

My sister who has just finished her SSCE exams has been engaged in indecent chats with various people on her phone, we were brought up under strict muslim parents, honestly they have done a good job parenting so far, for the fact that my mum knew something was fishy because she is always with her phone.

Her phone has been seized, since this happened yesterday she has refused to greet my parents or even assist in helping my mum cook and also refused to eat as well. Both parents have tried the best they can to enlighten us about social media and how to moderately use it, but my sister wouldn't care to listen, it's as if she is possessed because it has happened more than once under my parents watch.

Parents on this forum, kindly suggest ways to treat this matter urgently.


The simple truth is Jesus Christ is the only way.

Matthew 11:28 Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
Car Talk / Re: Why Do Lagos Drivers Fear VIO Officials So Much? by DeRichard(m): 7:24am On Nov 12, 2021
nedman77:
Funny enough, i mistakenly ran into VIO officers last week in Ojodu berger (Odozi street where they hide just before the bend towards berger market) and i couldn't reverse or run away, i practically ran into their trap. They checked my car papers which was up to date and my driving licence which was equally up to date, i was wearing my seat belt, everything was in place, i didn't panic, i just slowed down when they stopped me and after all these checks, they allowed me to go... was surprised, spent less than 5 minutes, but they can be terrible as i heard, maybe i was lucky or maybe i had nothing to fear as my particulars were ok.

Please what are the required documents one must have?

Religion / Re: Is It Necessary To Baptize Again After Changing Church? by DeRichard(m): 3:31pm On Nov 07, 2021
Etizz:
Blessed Sunday to you guys, A friend of mine who has Baptiste before in a different church decided to switch to another church entirely, but the pastor of the new church insisted that he must Baptiste again.

My friend is a worker in church (drummer), he stopped going to church because the pastor refused to pray for him and also refused issue him a certificate as a worker in the church because he did not Baptiste in the church....

My question is, after baptism, do you have to Baptiste again because one have to change church?

I'm real Christianity, if you get born again and you get baptized in a true Bible believing church, you don't need to get baptized again.

True water baptism is done once.
Religion / Re: Why Did You Choose Your Current Church? by DeRichard(m): 3:29pm On Nov 07, 2021
Omicron007:
Considering the vast number of Christian denominations in Nigeria today, why did you choose your current church?

Some people are attending a particular church just because they were born into the church.

Christ Apostolic Church; I chose there because at least twice God used a prophet there to deliver from serious issues and the fact that they have a very sound background with a powerful prayer life.

Religion / Re: Can Someone Who Is Born Again Not Know The Date He Or She Was Born Again? by DeRichard(m): 3:25pm On Nov 07, 2021
cutecommend:
Many people know the actually date they were born again. But for someone who don't know the actual date, but can remember the encounter, should we put such people aside?. Knowing the actual date of ones salvation is not a compulsory proof of salvation but it's essential . If I may ask? Those very uneducated people who got born again in the villages those early days, do they remember dates? or do they even know about dates? Someone may know the period he or she got born again, or may know the encounters and scenarios, but may not know the actual date. A proof of salvation is a change of life in which others can see the crystal clear evidence of Christ's nature in you....

If you are very sure you are saved, and can remember the year, month, scenarios and encounter, but cannot remember the actual date, don't think you are not saved if someone says you must compulsorily know the actual date.

Knowing the actual date of salvation is a very good job thing. It is good for references and accountability of ones progress in faith. But it is not a compulsory proof of salvation. The only compulsory proof of salvation is a clear change of ways; not doing the sinful things you did before; all by the enabling power of Jesus Christ in you after accepting Him.

Happy Sunday.

It's good one knows the date he/she got born again because of reference purpose and to know how well you've grown in the faith but if you have forgotten the date it doesn't mean you won't be saved. The most important thing is to keep living a holy life without blemish till your last breath and then you will receive a crown of everlasting life. May God help us and count us all worthy of his kingdom in Jesus name. Amen.

Even those who serve God can tell those who are false from those who are true. Jesus Christ taught us to know this though His teachings. He made it simple when in John 15 vs 14 He said His friends are those who do as He asks - those who trust and Obey His teachings and commandments. By this you know that those who don't trust and Obey the Truth of Jesus Christ are liars and their mouth full of deciet! undecided

You can't your way into belonging to Jesus Christ when your very fruits here reveal you for who you truly are. undecided

It's well.

The commandments of God came to us through Jesus Christ, the one who is the embodiment of God's Law in the Kingdom of God. He is God's Truth- Law - and the Eternal Life(grace) that all those who enter into His Kingdom are ruled over by and gifted with. undecided

In Matthew 4 vs 4, Jesus Christ all but declared to you that it is He, the one who is the Word out of God's Mouth, that you are to live - He is ruler and Law in the Kingdom of God. So any opinion or word contrary to that decreed by Jesus Christ Himself is against Him and not of His Law. undecided

It is a sin to add or remove from God's Law and God's Law to us was ratified on the cross when Jesus Christ declared, "It is finished!". And the same Jesus Christ informed you that not a jot of the Word of God, His Law included, will pass away or change until after Heaven and Earth have passed. undecided

So whatever commandment you claim to have received from Paul, I suggest you validate each and every one of them against Jesus Christ's teachings and commandments as given to you in the 4 Gospels, this to be certain you even follow Jesus Christ and not a mere man. undecided

Hmmm... It's well.

Again, God doesn't contradict Himself, and, He warned you against trusting in the words of men, including Paul - Jeremiah 17 vs 5 undecided

P.S. Look up the meaning of the word 'inspired' so you don't keep confusing it with the word 'true'. undecided

The commandments of God also came through the mouth of apostle Paul and they are of relevance in living the Christian life.

Even the very out of the mouth of Satan, demons and devils, also written of in the very same scripture are "inspired" of God yet they are still lies, are they not? undecided

Your Bible is not not Word of God - Jesus Christ is the Word out of God's own mouth , God's Truth that is every Word out of God's Mouth - Matthew 4 vs 4 & John 14 vs 1 - 6. undecided

Yet again you include a description of your very own self in bold there. Why do you feign blindness to the reality that is you? Several, you have denied the very Word of Jesus Christ as written in Luke 20 vs 34 - 36, opting instead for the opinions expressed by Paul in one of his many letters. Yet you think yourself a Christian even at this? undecided

Paul's words were inspired of God and Jesus spoke the very word of God. The word of God never contradicts be it spoken by Jesus or his apostles.

Jesus Christ never said one first needs the Holy Spirit in order to understand the Bible, nor did He say there was need for an interpretation to begin with. undecided

The books of the Bible where written by men in human language and were meant to be understood by human minds using applying basic human language comprehension skills which the average individual out learns from a very early age. There is no interpretation need for any of what is written in that book since it is in human language and meant for human consumption. undecided

You claim you listen for prophets who God sent but you refuse to listen and trust in Jesus Christ, the one who the prophets of Old all told you is to come, why? undecided
You think yourself a Christian where you use deceit to wriggle your way out of trusting the very words of Jesus Christ, the Christ in Christian? undecided

2 Timothy 3:16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:

The scriptures came by inspiration of God and understanding the Bible is not just by mere reading the text. The meanings of the scriptures are more than just the text. It takes the grace of God to fully understand the Bible.

No man who claims to be a Christian will disobey the words of Christ.

What you do in your churches and those who you call prophets in them have nothing to do with Jesus Christ or God's Law and Truth in the Kingdom of God , so let's not deviate from this please. undecided

Jesus Christ was clear in His teachings and commandments that He alone is Teacher/Rabbi, counselor, Master, Authority/Head, Guide, Shepherd etc., over each and everyone of those who belong to Him, so I am not sure why you seek advice from men pretending God is in what you do. undecided

Again, Jesus Christ, the one whose Kingdom it is made it clear to all those who will enter into His Kingdom that marriages are of this world and not of His Kingdom - there are no such things as Christian marriages - this in Luke 20 vs 34 - 36. That you deny His Truth speaks volumes of whose you are as it seems you are not even in the same boat with the one you call savior. undecided

God, who instituted marriage, never declared that its "success" depends on Jesus Christ - God never declared any such. So for you to put your own words into God's mouth - this against God's commandment that you not add or remove from God's Law - indicates your trust is not in God but in the traditions and doctrines of men instead. undecided

Without the Holy Spirit no man can truly understand the true interpretations of the Bible. I assume you're not a Christian from what you said about we listening to our prophets who God gave power from time immemorial, since the days of the old testament to lead his people.

Please become a born again Christian today. Jesus is the only way.

Now we are getting somewhere. According to Paul, what he presented to you in the context of 1 Corinthians 7 vs 25 - 40 is his personal opinion and not that commanded of God - Not of God's Law. undecided
Yet, you are all too willing to ignore God's direct commandments given to you by the one who is God's New Covenant Law, Jesus Christ, this so you can cling to the opinion of a man named Paul? undecided

Look at the church today. We have prophets and sometimes we go to them for spiritual advice/counselling. On some issues, they will advice one based on their spiritual experience not as if God directed them to give that particular advice. Will we now say because it's not directly from God we will not hearken to such advice.

And I have still tried to let you know what Jesus meant in that Luke 20 passage.

In all, what you're just trying to bring out is for a marriage to be successful it doesn't necessarily need to be dependent on God. Which is wrong.

The reference made to Law in Paul's letter the Corinthians referenced one of God's Laws. My question to you is which of God's Law did Paul reference in that verse which you quoted. The answer is of importance to the discussion. undecided

To my understanding it wasn't God's law that passage was referring to but the law that binds a woman in marriage as in the law of the court that binds couples in marriage. This is what I believe though.

You posted the verse in your bid to counter Jesus Christ's own decree and I am asking you what law is it that binds the woman to the man as expressed in the verse ...

Also, Jesus Christ told you in clear speak that your marriages are not of His Kingdom but of this world, yet you think that there text is able to counter Jesus Christ's own decree as far as His Kingdom is concerned? undecided

I'm not contradicting Jesus Christ.

This is the passage again: 1 Corinthians 7:39 The wife is bound by the law as long as her husband liveth; but if her husband be dead, she is at liberty to be married to whom she will; only in the Lord.

The wife it says is subject to her husband as far as he's alive but if her husband dies she can marry another man but in the Lord. Which is an indication that she should marry within the Christian space.

Jesus Christ told you over 2000 years ago that your marriages have nothing to do with His Kingdom.. there is no such thing as a Christian marriage. So your claims contradicts Jesus Christ's very own Truth and means you are one of those who do not in fact accept Jesus Christ(His Truth). undecided

There something called Christian marriage. Please see this scripture:
1 Corinthians 7:39 The wife is bound by the law as long as her husband liveth; but if her husband be dead, she is at liberty to be married to whom she will; only in the Lord.

Pay attention to what Jesus Christ is telling them and you too.. this He made mighty clear in verse 34 - 36 where He pretty much tells you that your marriages are of this world and not of His Kingdom,a statement which contradicts your claim that marriage can be of Christ(His Kingdom). undecided

I've already broken down what that passage meant that he meant we marry in this world we are today but they don't marry in heaven. This is just what it means.
