My friend. You ran away when I quoted scriptures that has exposed your lack of scriptural understanding. Now you're here again. If I quote scriptures that will prove your pastor an Olodo, you will disappear again. Isn't it your pastor that said masturbation is good? Isn't he a divorcee? Lol. Do what I say but don't do what I do.

My friend, you need to know and have deep understanding of the Bible. Don't let these wealth obsessed liars called pastors deceive you.

If I don't have convincing scriptural backings on a topic, I dare not express my opinion on that case to anybody. That's how true Bible students roll bro.

REPENT today, JESUS loves US all and wants us to repent. Tomorrow might be toooo late.

Maximus85:
Sorry, none of you will see him when he comes. He has sacrificed his human body for all of us. It's will be a fake sacrifice if he still comes and we see him physically.
His disciples understand this that was why they asked him of the Signs of his presence.

ednut1:
He is not coming anywhere. We will meet him for judgement when we die. If he comes again.dey powera dat be go re kill am

SalomonKane:
I've been hearing this for the past years, and guess what, Jesus hasn't come.

Dude, sorry to burst your bubble, Jesus isn't coming.

Seun:
You don't know that it was his head; maybe his back landed first. You don't know that he was unhurt either. He might have had a concussion. If the person was an usher or a pastor, he may have developed a way to fall that looks and sounds bad but is actually harmless.

Speaking in tongues is done in a known language as the bible indicates and not the incoherent glossary we hear in most churches.

Maximus85:
Hmmmm. Who's an ignorant Christian here.
My Personification does not prove personality comment even when supported by the scriptures doesn't make sense to you and you blatantly disregarded it. And you are not ignorant?
I will take my time to repeat those scriptures and if you're true and sincere with yourself, you will go through them. But I don't expect you to think differently. We make no statement without the scriptures. The only scripture you've been quoting is John 16:13. For you to compare other scriptures for better understanding is seen as ignorance by you.

Wisdom is pasonified just like Holy Spirit: Proverbs (1:20-33; 8:1-36

Also at Matthew 11:19 and Luke 7:35, where it is depicted as having both “works” and “children.”

The apostle Paul personalized sin and death and also undeserved kindness as “kings.” (Ro 5:14, 17, 21; 6:12)

He speaks of sin as “receiving an inducement,” ‘working out covetousness,’ ‘seducing,’ and ‘killing.’ (Ro 7:8-11)
Yet it is obvious that Paul did not mean that sin was actually a person.

Be sincere and ask yourself, if personication is well used by Jesus and other apostles in the case of wisdom, undeserved kindness, sin and death, isn't it obvious that that same applied in the case of Holy Spirit?

Maximus85:
There's no place in the Bible where Holy Spirit acted on its own. Holy Spirit is an active force of God. It is used by God, Jesus and even you.

Keep an open mind my brother. There's a whole lot you can learn.

raphieMontella:
so angels are divided in heaven?

Maximus85:
First of all, I really do appreciate the fact that you know where to find these things in the Bible and it's the best way to start understanding the scriptures.

Now, I'm sure you know and understand what personification is.
If a pronoun is ascribed to the Holy Spirit, thereby making it a person, then I want us to examine other parts of the Bible where other things are personified.

Personification does not prove personality.
It is true that Jesus spoke of the holy spirit as a “helper” and spoke of such helper as ‘teaching,’ ‘bearing witness,’ ‘giving evidence,’ ‘guiding,’ ‘speaking,’ ‘hearing,’ and ‘receiving.’

In so doing, the original Greek shows Jesus at times applying the masculine personal pronoun to that “helper”.

However, it is not unusual in the Scriptures for something that is not actually a person to be personalized or personified.
Wisdom is personified in the book of Proverbs (1:20-33; 8:1-36). Will you now refer to wisdom as a person because it's been personified? Can wisdom actually speak literally? Can it raise its voice?

I have plenty other instances where things are personified. But it doesn't mean they are a person.

What do you think?

I can show you the rest if you're interested.

raphieMontella:
your friends say it is the language of angels

well..
If i get two people who speak in tongues. Seperate them in different
rooms. Have one record something on videotape while speaking in tongues, then have him/her write
down the translation of what the speaker said and then go with the videotape to the other room, and play back the tape And get the second speaker in tongues to translate the language.
I'll bet my head..they can't get it and the translations wont rhyme for similar words!

analice107:
Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.
1 Corinthians:13:1

This shows us that there are Tongues of men and there are Tongues of Angels.


To another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another discerning of spirits; to another DIVERS KINDS of TONGUES; to another the interpretation of tongues:
1 Corinthians:12:10

These are the tongues of men.


This is a gift. And this is what happened on the say of Pentecost, where Jews spoke Chinese, Spoke Medes and strange languages. They didn't know they were speaking those languages, but those who heard them, understood them.
These tongues needs interpretation. For instance, if a the Holy Spirit takes up an Efik man's Mouth and begins to speak Nupe language, a Nupian will have to interprets to the Church what the Efik man said. This is gift.


BUT, the below is not a special gift. It is or shd be for every believer.

For he that speaketh in an unknown tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God: for no man understandeth him; howbeit in the spirit he speaketh mysteries.
1 Corinthians:14:2

Speaking in tongues is unto God and Angels, "Spiritual".


Speaking in Other (diverse) kinds of Tongues are the Tongues of men, speaking to men.

analice107:
There is no language in the spirit realm. Communication is done by thoughts.

analice107:
Speaking in Tongues is not the same as Speaking in Other Tongues.

Scholar8200:
This wrong notion is based on hearsay and even contradicts the Bible! How did the people understand them in Acts 2:8-11 if what was spoken was language of angels?

Maximus85:
Thank you. Can you please give me one instance where the Bible refer to the Holy Spirit as a person?

Maximus85:
Wow! First, who is a Christian? Does being a Christian mean you understand the Bible? And if you are referring to the Holy Spirit as a person then our Pastors have failed big time.
Keep an open mind. If you really don't want to argue or discriminate, I can show you from your Bible that the Holy Spirit is not a person and can never be equal to the Almighty God.

oloriooko:
And your info is acceptable abi? SMH
He should ask Benny Hinn how he successfully reconciled with his wife and do same!
Stop shielding his unacceptable actions

oloriooko:
The wife did not just wake up one day and served him a divorce letter
The woman must have been ignored for so long after countless efforts to save their marriage but he was "busy" doing whatever.
No woman wants her home destroyed but every woman must be catered for and given attention as due. You talk like this cuz you guys heard only from your lord and master pastor and whatever he says is always true but dis you care to ask from her?
Are you aware that the highest giver in the ministry Bro Strive also left the ministry cuz of this issue?
Pastor Chris needs to reconcile with his wife, period!

Ajeyo:
They have gone to rush baba Hinn for endorsement,that is not a clean game “pastor” chris joor.

tunnamaniah:
did u just say proof, just keep studying his word, he will prove it to u HIMself, as for me, I ain't proofing nothing

oloriooko:
So you have liberty to do anything since He's the judge?
My friend no pastor will stand with you at judgement so stop all these human worship, condemn what's wrong and stop harbouring them
If you cannot take care of your family how can you take care of God's people? He's not the only one with big ministry why can't he manage his home well
