Agbalowomeri: Dexter likes Afriprud

Gombs: That guy has a problem answering 'why' questions o

Joagbaje: Dwell on the account I gave dude. There were several incidences

John 8:59
They took up therefore stones that they might cast [them] at him; but Jesus hid himself and went out of the temple, [going through the midst of them, and thus passed on.]

Did he hid or not? If he did why?

Joagbaje: Did he escape ? If yes why?

Gombs: https://i793.photobucket.com/albums/yy219/anthonymoton/beyoncelaugh.gif

Muhehehhehehehe... Why was Peter with a sword? You got 50:50, phone a friend, ask the audience. I suggest you choose the last life line...ask the audience!

AlfaSelltzer: Simple, because Peter was with a Terrorist! No wonder Satan wanted to sign him up!

AlfaSelltzer: Why ws Peter with a sword?

Simple, because Peter was with a Terrorist! No wonder Satan wanted to sign him up!

But seriously, why can't you answer why questions?

Gombs: So this is the reason why you used 'but' to answer a 'Why' question?

Simple question and answer tag o..

Oya, let's try it again, why was peter with a sword? From you QED post

A: peter was with a sword because it was against the wish of Jesus

Hillarious

Dexterax: I agree.

brainpowerng: What else do I need to do for Morgan Capital to credit my account? I have called several times and even email but all to no avail. Since Monday!!!

Gombs: They asked you "Why" in class you either out of semi literacy or embarrassing ignorance answered "but"... you really didn't do question tags in school.

Joagbaje: He concealed himself . Hiding and mingling through the crowd. Any person with common sense should know what Jesus did here, don't try to be dishonest . There were several incidences. In Some cases he was protected supernaturally and others he took measures. Read the account here

John 8:59
They took up therefore stones that they might cast [them] at him; but Jesus hid himself and went out of the temple, [going through the midst of them, and thus passed on.]

He HID! Not that the spirt made him invisible . He hid , and when he got the chance ,he mingled with the crowd to escape . Didn't he stay . But if critics like you hear that a MOG hid. You will make it front page .



Stop this nonsense. A man only take measure in the face of threat. And the measures you take depends on the threat .why didn't paul just pray. When he heard the Jews were coming for his head. But if it's MOG that requested for protection as paul did Critics like you will make it front page .

LambanoPeace: You didn't do question tag in your High school days? I asked "Why" I expect a "because" not "but"

"Why" is a clause for reason... oya answer me or just leave it so, I would understand.

LambanoPeace: I tire o! DragonKing, it's really fine if you can't or don't want to answer

LambanoPeace: I tire o! DragonKing, it's really fine if you can't or don't want to answer

Gombs: Ogbeni answer her/him joor... why was peter with a sword? Was he Sumarai or a gangster? Or butcher? Or suya man?

LambanoPeace: Why was it again you said Peter was with a sword? Let me assume Jesus wasn't aware even though Gombs proved beyond reasonable doubt that Jesus was fully aware.

LambanoPeace: I see how you trying to run away from your idiocy! Change focal point from the bodyguards to adultery! That was a cowardly move bro! But nicely played

Gombs: Oh well!... no need dragging with dragonking... posterity would judge for themselves

Calling Pastor Chris an Adulterer is even Hillarious....I can imagine the smile on his face on those allegations from the media

Joagbaje: Yes of course , he has fulfilled his ministry and He protected himself till he was arrested, death is the next phase. . Paul protected himself , mobilized soldiers for protection (indirectly) he also escape mob by flee a city smuggled in a basket. But when his MINUSTRY was over ,he had a different disposition . He was ready to die.

2 Timothy 4:6-8
For I am now ready to be offered, and the time of my departure is at hand. I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith: Henceforth there is laid up for me a crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous judge, shall give me at that day: and not to me only, but unto all them also that love his appearing.



Why didn't Jesus use the power instead of hiding and escaping?

Its a shame that you dont even know and understand your bible stories.

John 8:59: Then took they up stones to cast at him: but Jesus hid himself, and went out of the temple, going through the midst of them, and so passed by.

Now if you open your mind to the bolded, you will observe that jesus went out of the temple by going through the mist of the angry mob that wanted to kill him and passed by their midst without the angry mob even knowing.

In lame mans language, jesus passed through the angry mob without the mob seeing him or knowing according to this your previous quoted scripture..

^^That is the protection @joagbaje

That is the protection i expect all these MOG to display not by hiring commandos and deadly squads.

Joagbaje: Stop being silly, he didn't commit any adultery.

Joagbaje: That's not an issue. I picked my point of emphasis for a reason. Security is common sense. We trust in dods protection and we also take physical measures. Jesus took physical measures. Paul took physical measures. But faith is still in God to even make the physical measures work

Proverbs 21:31
The horse is prepared against the day of battle:
but safety is of the Lord.

Psalms 18:34
He teacheth my hands to war,
so that a bow of steel is broken by mine arms.


Taking physical measures is common sense. But trust must always be in God. In Gods wisdom ,he tells us to take precaution. Those who have armed men are not necessary going to shoot anybody. It's to prevent crime by their presence. Not about trusting in guns. We do have digs in our houses,we lock our doors. Everyone has different enemies which determines your precaution, it is wrong to keep dogs in your house and criticise another for have police .

mbaemeka: Stop being an ignorant churl. I don't know Pastor Chris Okotie from Adam besides I don't believe he regularly does that. He did it after making some controversial statement about the Roman catholics and I don't think it is status quo in his services.

Randy escapades in PHC? Why not Lagos or Switzerland? Keep your Hotel fables for someone who knows nothing ok? Or better still beg the girls to come out and expose him.

Gombs: Too much conjecture in your writ...and it's appalling. Peter, James and John by virtue of fheir occupation must have been muscular, I almost dropped my tab in epileptic laughter when you said James is due to matyrdom... and Jesus wanted to use Peter as the rock which he'd establish the Church, Peter is not any rock, , what Peter said was the rock on which the church stands. Quit assuming, go study

Gombs: Yet they had swords with them? Where they butchers?

Gombs: So Jesus NEVER knew Peter moved around with a sword? Mind explaining the below bold for me?

[NLT] Luke 22:38 “Look, Lord,” they replied, “we have two swords among us.” “That’s enough,” he said.

If you say Jesus Peter's possession of a sword was never in Jesus' knowledge, explain the above bold for me. Looks to me you are lying, for Jesus never lies.

Now, lets find out if Jesus was talking about the literal swords to be taken? If He meant the literal swords why did He rebuke Peter for using the sword against His enemy?

Matthew 26:52-53: Then said Jesus unto him, Put up again thy sword into his place: for all they that take the
sword shall perish with the sword. Thinkest thou that I cannot now pray to my Father, and he shall presently give me more than twelve legions of angels?

^^Here in this passage, it is evident and jesus stated it clearly that he doesnt need man's protection that if indeed he needed protection he would have called on his father to give him legions of angels.

Jesus never told them to get physical swords and he obviously did not mean the literal sword as he rebuked Peter for using it.

Now, Luke 22:38: And they said, Lord, behold, here are two swords. And he said unto them, It is enough.

Look closely and observe that Jesus did not say "the two swords were enough", but said, "It is enough". So if Jesus meant about the literal swords, how could two swords be enough for twelve people if they were going to war or fight an angry mob? And if Jesus meant just two swords were enough then He would be contradicting His own words earlier, where he told all of them should have a sword each!

Gombs: [NLT] Luke 22:49 When the other disciples saw what was about to happen, they exclaimed, “Lord, should we fight? We brought the swords!”


Looks to me you don't have a Bible. Jesus knew of the those swords, infact, John was believed to be with the other, question is, why were they with swords? It's ok if you can't answer...remember I'm not here to convince you, like Jo said, I'm laying facts side by side for posterity sake and others who would be watching and reading, the rest is left for the Holy Spirit

Gombs: Refer to verse 49 above. You still never answer me o...why were they with swords? Were they Sumarai or Ninjas? Or Jesus had no knowledge of their possession of arms yet he knew Judas ws stealing from the bag and was indeed the devil?

mbaemeka: You are making daft references and suppositions. Pastor Chris has held conferences of over a million people seated including armed robbers and cultists. He stood there for hours preaching and ministering and there was no police officer or armed men around him and nothing happened.

In that picture you uploaded he was going to Edo state to hand over an auditorium that he built for his alma mater and the armed men you saw there were provided by Governor Oshiomole. Even at that he didn't ask for Body guards or what not but the Authorities of the church provided them for him and there is nothing wrong with that.

Why not ask him why he uses a vehicle to travel when Elijah and Phillip teleported at some point or the other to change locations? Hiss

Gombs: You said :
Protection as a free man? The answer is NO. he didt get protection.

From your logic, free men don't get protection.

Besides, you never answer why Peter was holding a sword! Was he a gangster? Or butcher?

Gombs: Dragon king, a quiz quiz

1. Why were Peter, James and John always with Jesus... was it because they prayed berra? Or smarter than the rest?

2. Why was Peter with a sword? Was he a butcher or a gangster?

Gombs: Is pastor chris a free man?

Joagbaje: Luke 22:36-39
Then said he unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip: and he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one. For I say unto you, that this that is written must yet be accomplished in me, And he was reckoned among the transgressors: for the things concerning me have an end. And they said, Lord, behold, here are two swords. And he said unto them, It is enough.

Gombs: Did he get protection? Yes or No
