Religion / Re: Visit Israel. You Will Not Remain The Same by EdetOkon: 1:27pm On Dec 11, 2009
JeSoul:

John 4:
Jesus declared, "Believe me, woman, a time is coming when you will worship the Father neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem. Yet a time is coming and has now come when the true worshipers will worship the Father in spirit and truth, for they are the kind of worshipers the Father seeks. 24God is spirit, and his worshipers must worship in spirit and in truth."


Jerusalem is nothing but a space on the map.

@JeSoul
And so is Redemption camp, faith tabernacle and the rest, plus your Church you Sunday worshipper.

Yisraylite:

I believe in The Divine Intructions of Love and Life given by The Creator through The Law and The Prophets. I'm not a Christian, Moslem or Jew. The Most High has given man instructions for life and you would be wise to follow them

Ecc 12:13 ¶ Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear YAHAWAH, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man. ( not Jew,Moslem or Christian but MAN!!)


Ecc 12:14 For YAHAWAH shall bring every work into judgment, with every secret thing, whether it be righteous, or whether it be evil.




Salamah


@ Yisraylite
You say you are not a Christian, Jew or Muslim but you use the Bible.
Stop turning the Bible upside down. The Jews are the Choosen people of Adonai. That you prefer using the word YAHAWAH instead of Elohim or Adonai clearly shows where you come from.

@chukwudi44

Bros, no need to get defensive, Lady 234 is obviously promoting Hannukkah, so again please show from the Torah were The Creator has instructed that Hannukkah be observed?

The festival of lights and  Maccabes  revolt is not in the Law and Prophets so your point is moot!

Lev 23:1 And YAHAWAH spoke to Masha(Musa,Mosheh,Moses) saying, 

Lev 23:2 "Speak to the children of Yisrayl, and say to them: 'The feasts of YAHAWAH, which you shall proclaim to be holy convocations, these are My feasts

Lev 23:1- 23:44 - Read it!

NO HANNUKKAH ! PLEASE STOP PROMOTING JEWISH CULTURE, we are already dealing with horrible effects of the white man's christianity and the Arabs Islam in Nigeria, we don't need this Jewish crap to confuse more truth seekers!

UNLESS YOU ARE READING THE TALMUD OR PRACTISING KABBALAH!

salamah!

@Yisraylite
You are anti-semite. How can you say "NO HANNUKKAH ! PLEASE STOP PROMOTING JEWISH CULTURE".
Whats your own, how is it your business if Jews and messianic Jews celebrate Hanukkah or not. I think you should be reported to the moderator for promoting hate.
If you hate Jews and Messianic Jews then why visit Jewish posts.

You are not a Jew, Jews come from Southern Russia,Khazarksan,Bulgaria etc, so why are you clinging on to their traditions? Did Abraham, Yahzhak, Yaaqob, Noah, Dawad(David) Samuyl,Yeremyah,Etc celebrate Hannukkah? The feasts to be celebrated are listed in Lev 23 and your Hanukkah is not in that list

Salamah!

@ Yisraylite
You are obviously not Jewish because you would have known that Jews celebrate Hanukkah.

- Please what is Hannukah and where is it mentioned in the Old Testament or New Testament . . .

- I am tired of just celebrating something just because others are doing it . . .


@No2Atheism
Check the link http://www.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hanukkah
Hanukkah doesn't have to be written in the Torah to be celebrated by Jews and Messianic Jews. It is an ancient Jewish festival commemorating the miracle of the oil vessel and the victory of the Jews.
Funny enough the celebration of Hanukkah is recorded in the 1st and Second books of Maccabees which is in the Apocrypha which protestants reject but i don't reject. The celebration of the Jewish feast of Hanukkah thus gives credibility to the 1st and 2nd books of Maccabees and the entire Apocrypha.

Religion / Re: Pastor Bakare On Tithes by EdetOkon: 4:53pm On Dec 02, 2009
The only thing some churches stress most in the New Testamen(Torah) is tithing. Na wa 4 una oo. The tithe Israel paid was agricultural.

Pastor Bakare seems to know alot about priesthood. Are there priests in pentecostalism.No.

Many Christians have left their Jewish roots, they follow what their pastors say instead of the Torah, Jewish tradition and the New Testament.

Religion / Would You Pay 1 Million Naira Bride Price by EdetOkon: 6:23pm On Nov 28, 2009
Recently my friends dad got 1 million from my friends hubby as her bride price and said that he got it because of the way she used to behave. When we heard it we thought it was a joke, but at the end he still got it. If it were you would you pay it for the sake of LOVE.
Religion / Re: Purgatory by EdetOkon: 6:16pm On Nov 28, 2009
Check 1 cor. 3:10-15(purification by fire).

Does anyone remember what Jesus said about the sin against the Holy Spirit and what He said after that? So where is this other world where the Sin against the Holy Spirit cannot be forgiven and other sins can be forgiven. Is it Heaven, I doubt, the Bible states clearly that no unclean thing will enter Heaven.

Discover the Jewish Jesus, Become a Messianic Jew.

Hanukkah is coming soon, get ready.

Religion / Re: No One seems to be Talking About Nigeria's Growing Chrislamic Community by EdetOkon: 5:30pm On Nov 28, 2009
tpia.:

chrislam has been around for a while.

its not a new thing.

Its certainly not a new thing. I wonder which god they worship.


@A_K_O
I didn't say that wikipedia says their number is increasing although from what i've read i know its increasing( I actually read it from a newsmagazine).  I only directed you there to show you that chrislamism actually exists because i thought you did not believe that there is anything like Chrislamism. The wikipedia article on chrislamism is actually very poor and is written about one religious group that combines both religions. Did you google it as i told you, you will discover that although Chrilsamism is happening in other parts of the world It is perculiar to Nigeria.
It will be hard to get statistics because many of them are not organised like other religions and the combine their believes at varying degrees. Another thing, many of them won't want to be branded Chrislamic.
Religion / Re: Are Catholic Xtians? by EdetOkon: 4:44pm On Nov 28, 2009
This is just how confusing some Christians can be. When atheist, satanists and muslims make posts against you on nairaland you feel bad, but you are doing the same thing to Catholics who are Christians like you.
I don't know where i will find a Catholic who hates protestants.

@Andrew 3338
Can you tell us your denomination, i'm sure many people on nairaland will also view your believes as being false.
When will Christians ever come together as one. Una wan start sunni-shiite problem.
Discover the Jewish Jesus, become a Messianic Jew. Pat Robertson of the 700 club and CBN has discovered his Jewish roots and is now messianic.

@ Andrew 3388
I'm a Messianic Jew.
Do you know that the Ark of the covenant had the statue of two Angels on it, Confusing isn't it. How about Jesus saying that just as the Israelites looked at the staff to be healed so also will people look to the cross.
But anyone that refused to look at the staff with the snake on it died. Could it be that they died because they did not want to commit Idolatry.

How about you Andrew breaking the commandment every time you go to Church on Sunday instead of going to church on the Jewish Shabbat which is Saturday.
Don't you think you will go to Hell by continously breaking Elohim's commandment by going to church on sunday.
And by the way which Church compiled the New Testament, Is it not the Catholic church.

Stop this Andrew. JEWS believe you are going to HELL as a Christian because you equate Jesus with God(Elohim) by even believing He is the Son of God.
What you wrote is typical of people who hear from the wrong sources. You need to watch EWTN to know what the Catholic church really believes. Its available on Daarsat, Trendtv, and free to air on Intelsat 10 C Band(Big Dish) and on the internet at www.ewtn.com or you can go to www.catholic.com.

Stop spreading hatred and lies against Catholicism, what you wrote is always included in the lies people tell against Catholics.  Someone once told me that Catholics believe that Jesus is the brother of Satan, this is clearly a doctrine which Catholics don't believe.

If you are tired of your church, I invite you to discover the Jewish Jesus. I know you've lost your Jewish roots just like other Christians have. So come become a Messianic Jew. You won't regret it.  Catholics are Christians.

Do you have any statistics to buttress your claim? If not please make it clear that your assertion is based on your personal experience and context.

@ A_K_O
If you don't believe me, then go to wikipedia and type in Chrislam or rather google the word Chrislam, you will find that Nigeria is the main centre of Chrislamism in the world.

Religion / Re: Christianity: A Religion Or A 'Way Of Life'? by EdetOkon: 3:41pm On Nov 26, 2009
Christianity which is the completion of Judaism is a LOVE relationship with Elohim, Jesus Christ and the Holy Spirit. This love(Ahava) relationship has no limits, cannot be fully explained and understood by humans minds and is a covenant-type relationship in which Elohim says you are Mine and I Am yours, You are My people and I Am your God. This Ahava relationship can be seen for example in Yeshua dieing on the Cross of Calvary for our salvation although we don't deserve it. This is just one of the ways in which Elohim expresses His LOVE for us. HANUKKAH is coming soon, GET READY.
Ahava Yeshua.

Religion / Hanukkah Is Coming Soon by EdetOkon: 2:31pm On Nov 26, 2009
Shalom Shalom Everyone,
Hanukkah, the Jewish Festival of Lights starts on 12 December 2009 and ends on 19 December 2009.
So go get your candles and menorah.

What's Hanukkah
Hanukkah, also known as the Festival of Lights is an eight-day Jewish Festival marking the rededication of the Holy Temple in Jerusalem in 165 BC after its desecration and the defeat of the Syrians and Greeks who ruled Israel by the Jewish Maccabees.
Hanukkah also commemorates the 'Miracle of the oil container' that happened after the Temple was destroyed . It starts on the 25th day of Kislev in the Jewish Calendar, which happens to be 12th December this year in the Gregorian Calendar.

Who celebrates Hanukkah
Jews and Messianic Jews

Why should i celebrate Hanukkah
1. Because it reminds us of the wonders and miracles of Elohim our God and that He will never forget us no matter the conditions we are in.
2. It is part of our Jewish Heritage

Is Hanukkah Biblical
Hanukkah is described in the Jewish Talmud and in the Deuterocanonical books of Maccabees.
Check 1 and 2 Maccabees. So go get a Talmud or a Bible with the Apocrypha and go discover your Jewish roots.

koyuid:

With the amount of money HITV is paying for these rights i just hope they dont go the way of setanta or gtv!

You share the same concerns with me, I hope they don't go down. It's over-spending on football alone that made gtv go down. I don't know who advises HiTv, its not only football nay sports that will make a Satellite Tv company have many subscribers. Lets not forget that people watch more movies than they watch football. I just don't know whats wrong with HiTV, they know that they have this problem of people having the perception that HiTv is SPORT only yet they've refused to target and solve the problem.

@ Yisraylite
Thanks for what you wrote. YEHUDIM is the Hebrew word for Jews and i'm Jewish(Messianic Jew), and guys someone being ETHNICALLY Jewish is different from someone being RELIGIOUSLY Jewish, this topic usually comes up in Israel when dividing people into different demographics, When one says the Jewish State of Israel does it mean a State populated by people who are ethnically Jewish like ( Argentine Republic) in the case of Argentina or does it mean a State populated by people who are religiously Jewish like (Islamic Republic of Mauritania) in the case of Mauritania.  Therefore i'll conclude by saying that i'm RELIGIOUSLY Jewish. Messianic Jews let's talk about the JEWISH roots of Christianity.
  Shalom haMashiach.
