Unlearned and unlettered in what?

Lol! Both of you are cut from the same cloth. Lol.

There is a difference between edification and spiritual pollution. No one should confuse one for the other.

El Elohe Yahshrael!

I had to ask that question because the issue of people advising others to worship their ancestors is becoming something else.

What impact or influence do the dead have on the living?

Who/what is a god?
What separates a supposed god from a human being?
What are the factors that make such god worthy to be worshipped?

Can those who call for ancestral worship answer and explain without sentiments?

El Elohe Yahshrael! Hallelu YAH!

Isaiah 44: 18 They know nothing, they understand nothing;
their eyes are plastered over so they cannot see,
and their minds closed so they cannot understand.
19 No one stops to think,
no one has the knowledge or understanding to say,
“Half of it I used for fuel;
I even baked bread over its coals,
I roasted meat and I ate.
Shall I make a detestable thing from what is left?
Shall I bow down to a block of wood?”

El Elohe Yahshrael! Hallelu YAH!

Isaiah 44: 17 From the rest he makes a god, his idol;
he bows down to it and worships.
He prays to it and says,
“Save me! You are my god!”

Isaiah 44: 16 Half of the wood he burns in the fire;
over it he prepares his meal,
he roasts his meat and eats his fill.
He also warms himself and says,
“Ah! I am warm; I see the fire.”

Isaiah 44: 15 It is used as fuel for burning;
some of it he takes and warms himself,
he kindles a fire and bakes bread.
But he also fashions a god and worships it;
he makes an idol and bows down to it.

Isaiah 44: 14 He cut down cedars,
or perhaps took a cypress or oak.
He let it grow among the trees of the forest,
or planted a pine, and the rain made it grow.

Exodus 32: 2 Aaron answered them, “Take off the gold earrings that your wives, your sons and your daughters are wearing, and bring them to me.” 3 So all the people took off their earrings and brought them to Aaron. 4 He took what they handed him and made it into an idol cast in the shape of a calf, fashioning it with a tool. Then they said, “These are your gods, Israel, who brought you up out of Egypt.”


2 Kings 18:4 He removed the high places, smashed the sacred stones and cut down the Asherah poles. He broke into pieces the bronze snake Moses had made, for up to that time the Israelites had been burning incense to it. (It was called Nehushtan.

[b] Isaiah 44: The blacksmith takes a tool
and works with it in the coals;
he shapes an idol with hammers,
he forges it with the might of his arm.
He gets hungry and loses his strength;
he drinks no water and grows faint.
13 The carpenter measures with a line
and makes an outline with a marker;
he roughs it out with chisels
and marks it with compasses.
He shapes it in human form,
human form in all its glory,
that it may dwell in a shrine.
14 He cut down cedars,
or perhaps took a cypress or oak.
He let it grow among the trees of the forest,
or planted a pine, and the rain made it grow.
15 It is used as fuel for burning;
some of it he takes and warms himself,

he roasts his meat and eats his fill.
He also warms himself and says,
“Ah! I am warm; I see the fire.”
17 From the rest he makes a god, his idol;
he bows down to it and worships.
He prays to it and says,
“Save me! You are my god!”
18 They know nothing, they understand nothing;

20 Such a person feeds on ashes; a deluded heart misleads him;
he cannot save himself, or say,
“Is not this thing in my right hand a lie?”

Mrpresident, did you even go through my comments here?

Exodus 20: 4 “You shall not make for yourself an image in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below. 5 You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I, YHVH your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the parents to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me, 6 but showing love to a thousand generations of those who love me and keep my commandments.

Deut 5: “You shall not make for yourself an image in the form of anything in heaven above or on the earth beneath or in the waters below. 9 You shall not bow down to them or worship them; for I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the sin of the parents to the third and fourth generation of those who hate me, 10 but showing love to a thousand generations of those who love me and keep my commandments.

I have rebuked a few people on this site because of this same antic of the usurper. It is still the same force that is behind both the white and black portraits or images. None is the image of Yahushua the Messiah.

Godschild007, the assertions of kushites are here for everyone to read and understand. Godschild007, I have responded as instructed by the Spirit. So, whatever your mission is, it is dead on arrival. Those to whom the message was sent will receive it and cherish it and recognize it. As for you, go your way.

Hilarious! Some people want to know the race of the King of kings. Mrpresident, really?

There is no doubt that Yahushua the Messiah, while in human flesh, here on earth, descended from the Tribe of Judah, one of the twelve tribes of Israel. He had to be born into the world through a race.

It is absurd, insulting, even, to think that the King of the universe can or will be restricted to or limited by such things as race, tribe, color, ethnicity or language, when he created them all.

Acts 2: 5 Now there were staying in Jerusalem God-fearing Jews from every nation under heaven. 6 When they heard this sound, a crowd came together in bewilderment, because each one heard their own language being spoken. 7 Utterly amazed, they asked: “Aren’t all these who are speaking Galileans? 8 Then how is it that each of us hears them in our native language? 9 Parthians, Medes and Elamites; residents of Mesopotamia, Judea and Cappadocia, Pontus and Asia, 10 Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and the parts of Libya near Cyrene; visitors from Rome 11 (both Jews and converts to Judaism); Cretans and Arabs—we hear them declaring the wonders of God in our own tongues!”

Colossians 2: 9 For in the Messiah all the fullness of the Deity lives in bodily form, 10 and in the Messiah you have been brought to fullness. He is the head over every power and authority. 11 In him you were also circumcised with a circumcision not performed by human hands. Your whole self ruled by the flesh was put off when you were circumcised by the Messiah, 12 having been buried with him in baptism, in which you were also raised with him through your faith in the working of YHVH, who raised him from the dead.

As the King of kings and Master of masters, sitting at the right hand of YHVH Almighty, our Father in heaven, Yahushua the Messiah has no race, tribe, color or ethnicity. Only humans worry about such. We, his saints, servants, followers and messengers, must also look beyond race, tribe, language or ethnicity in all our doings with others. We, by the help of the Spirit of our Father in heaven, look at the fruit people bear and not their races, tribes, languages, colours or ethnicities. We may have various degrees of gifts, talents and anointing, but we are all equal before him. NO PRIESTHOOD and NO LAITY among saints, servants, followers and messengers of YHVH Almighty, of Yahushua the Messiah. This is because we, his saints, servants, followers and messengers are all PRIESTS before him and he is our HIGH PRIEST.

So, kushites, if truly you are after the truth and are seeking it with all your soul, all mind and all your strength, you must jettison this your line of thought because it is not profitable. It is nothing but limitation. Seek the life of the Spirit.

1 Cor 3: 3 Brothers and sisters, I could not address you as people who live by the Spirit but as people who are still worldly—mere infants in the Messiah. 2 I gave you milk, not solid food, for you were not yet ready for it. Indeed, you are still not ready. 3 You are still worldly. For since there is jealousy and quarreling among you, are you not worldly? Are you not acting like mere humans? 4 For when one says, “I follow Paul,” and another, “I follow Apollos,” are you not mere human beings?

Those who have succeeded in dividing you, only did so to make it possible for them to milk you.


FOR AS LONG AS IT DEPENDS ON YOU, FOLLOW PEACE WITH ALL MEN.

What am I saying? I am saying that the Creator of the heavens, the earth, the seas and everything in them, the one and only true God, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, my God and our Father in heaven, has no race, tribe, ethnicity or colour.

Isaiah 19: 23 In that day there will be a highway from Egypt to Assyria. The Assyrians will go to Egypt and the Egyptians to Assyria. The Egyptians and Assyrians will worship together. 24 In that day Israel will be the third, along with Egypt and Assyria, a blessing on the earth. 25 YHVH Almighty will bless them, saying, “Blessed be Egypt my people, Assyria my handiwork, and Israel my inheritance.”

Matthew 7: 16 By their fruit you will recognize them. Do people pick grapes from thornbushes, or figs from thistles? 17 Likewise, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. 18 A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot bear good fruit. 19 Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 20 Thus, by their fruit you will recognize them.


Nowhere did he say by their race, tribe, colour, ethnicity or language.

John 3:8 The wind blows wherever it pleases. You hear its sound, but you cannot tell where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone born of the Spirit.”

What colour is the wind?

El Elohe Yahshrael! Hallelu YAH!

Kushites, non of those is the image of the Messiah. No one has the picture of the Messiah anywhere.

Have you also wondered where the name "Jesus", which you are using, came from?

Maxindhouse, what exactly is your problem with this message? Is it not simple enough for you to understand?

Maxindhouse, aren't we familiar with each here?

I was even wondering where I mentioned the words of anyone. Maxindhouse?

I will try again later.

Helpyourself, I can't even respond to you without ban.

Apt.

Like this thread of yours wasn't created to establish exactly what you accused me of --- place women above men spiritually! Your intention is to twist and alter the reality.

Helpyourself, I didn't place men above women spiritually. The Creator himself did. Both the natural and the supernatural did. I am only stating it as it is. Men and women are not equal spiritually. There is what is called SPIRITUAL AUTHORITY on this earth. The SPIRITUAL AUTHORITY lies with the man.

When I have the time, I will look further into your op and dissect it and show you how flawed it is.

However, I know that you have learnt some new things from our discourse so far.

HelpYourself, you are not as knowledgeable as you think you are in these matters. I am even resisting the urge to dissect the op and show you how wrong you truly are. However, just key points will suffice.

Let us look at your response to my first comment. If man was designed, according to you, to be the mover, molder and breaker, how, then, is he inferior to or below the woman?

Man embodies the spiritual authority of this world. He can lose it as well as get it back. Like I said earlier, there is one sure way that he can lose it to the usurper. However, he can always get it back if he desires. It is naturally and supernaturally in and on man to guide the woman on the right spiritual path. The usurper hates what man represents in this regard. He has consistently fought against it because he knows that it is the only way he can have the society the way he wants it. The truth is that you can't have the society unless the men allow you to. For you to do it, you must take that spiritual authority away.

In a society where women, for some reasons, rule spiritually, a lot of things go wrong. You know why? It is because nature abhors such. It is like an abomination. The woman is spiritually weaker than the man and is, therefore, easily prone to.the wiles of the evil one --- the usurper. It is only a man who is still connected to the spiritual authority, AS ORDAINED BY THE CREATOR, that will notice when his woman is being manipulated or influenced by the evil one and correct her. You now see why you should feel sorry for the men who are controlled by their wives.

The usurper knows that, in almost all the cases, he can't influence the men directly, so he goes through the women. It is not because the women are spiritual anchors or cores. Nope! It is because they are more susceptible to his antics and are also.ways to.their men's hearts. It is only a man of THE RIGHT SPIRITUAL STANDING and AUTHORITY that will be able to separate the wheat from the chaff.


How will you be able to protect your woman from evil/negative spiritual influences, if you are not above her spiritually, helpyourself?

Women can't wield the spiritual authority in the society and things work out properly. Nature hasn't designed it so. It is aberration. It is not meant to be so. So, yes, if you want to destroy any society, weaken its men spiritually. The women and the children will just be there for the taking --- for the demonic vultures to prey upon. Helpyourself, take good look at the society that you are living in.

Helpyourself, a society that will fail, starts with the failure of the men. When men fail, the women follow closely. The survival of any society or environment spiritually is hinged on the man. The truth of the matter is that nature has designed the man to be right spiritual compass to the woman. Anything contrary to this is an aberration.

Believe it or not, the spiritual authority of this world was handed over to the men. There is only one way that this "spiritual authority" can be taken away from the man. The "usurper" makes maximum use of the way that I am talking about.

Weak fathers breed very unbalanced children. Anyone who is observant enough knows this. Do I need to tell you what that means? Look at the society you are living in.

El Elohe Yahshrael!


The Mighty One of Jacob, the I Am that I AM, the Creator of the heavens, the earth, the seas and everything in them, the one and only true God, my Mighty One and Father in heaven, didn't mince words when he said:

Jeremiah 23: Am I only a God nearby,”
declares YHVH,
“and not a God far away?
24 Who can hide in secret places
so that I cannot see them?”
declares YHVH.
“Do not I fill heaven and earth?”
declares YHVH.

The problem is described in the Scriptures below:

Jeremiah 23: 25 “I have heard what the prophets say who prophesy lies in my name. They say, ‘I had a dream! I had a dream!’ 26 How long will this continue in the hearts of these lying prophets, who prophesy the delusions of their own minds?

They are called emergency dreamers and anywhere-their-pockets-and-bellies-will-be-filled prophets. Their aim lies below:

Jeremiah 23: 27 They think the dreams they tell one another will make my people forget my name, just as their ancestors forgot my name through Baal worship. 28 Let the prophet who has a dream recount the dream, but let the one who has my word speak it faithfully. For what has straw to do with grain?” declares YHVH.

Their aim has always failed woefully and will continue to do so. You see, their antics show clearly, to the discerning eyes, of course, that they have failed miserably and woefully and pathetically in their attempts to usurp or hijack the gifts and talents of the gifted and talented saints, servants, followers and messengers of YHVH Almighty, the one and only true God, the Creator of the heavens, the earth, the seas and everything in them. You see, you can't erect a skyscraper on a foundation made for three storey structure. It is not possible.

Again:

Jeremiah 23:28 Let the prophet who has a dream recount the dream, but let the one who has my word speak it faithfully. For what has straw to do with grain?” declares YHVH.

Again:

Jeremiah 23: 27 They think the dreams they tell one another will make my people forget my name, just as their ancestors forgot my name through Baal worship.

The chosen and elected ones of YHVH Almighty are neither going to doubt the ways of our Father in heaven nor the power in his Word because of the antics of wolves in sheep's clothing.

2 Timothy 3: 8 Just as Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses, so also these teachers oppose the truth. They are men of depraved minds, who, as far as the faith is concerned, are rejected. 9 But they will not get very far because, as in the case of those men, their folly will be clear to everyone.

You see, the Word of YHVH Almighty, the one and only true God, the Creator of the heavens, the earth, the seas and everything in them, is powerful and effective in the mouths and hands of his saints, servants, followers and messengers --- his chosen vessels and elected ones.

Read:


Jeremiah 23: 29 “Is not my word like fire,” declares YHVH, “and like a hammer that breaks a rock in pieces?


Apt, precise and true.

The forces of darkness and wickedness of this world know exactly what the Word of YHVH Almighty, in the mouths and hands of his saints, servants, followers and messengers, do to and are doing to them and their kingdoms.

The Word and Name of YHVH Almighty can't be maligned by anyone, not even the words and actions of those who have failed in their attempts to usurp and hijack the gifts and talents of the saints, servants, followers and messengers of YHVH Almighty can accomplish such.

Yahushua the Messiah chose his disciples - men who were already designated by the Father in heaven to perform those specific tasks.


May our Father in heaven, YHVH Almighty, the one and only true God, continue to strengthen us, Elated177 and his other saints, servants, followers and messengers all over the world.

El Elohe Yahshrael! Hallelu YAH!

El Elohe Yahshrael!

John 6: 27 Do not work for food that spoils, but for food that endures to eternal life, which the Son of Man will give you. For on him YHVH the Father has placed his seal of approval.” 28 Then they asked him, “What must we do to do the works YHVH requires?”
29 Jesus answered, “The work of YHVH is this: to believe in the one he has sent.”

Who has our Father in heaven, YHVH Almighty, sent? Yahushua the Messiah, his Word and begotten Son.

This is the work and nothing more. Everything other thing is just man-made addition.

John 14:21 Whoever has my commands and keeps them is the one who loves me. The one who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I too will love them and show myself to them.”

To believe in Yahushua the Messiah is to obey the Commandments of our Father in heaven, YHVH Almighty. This is the work that he requires of us.

Deut 32: 45 When Moses finished reciting all these words to all Israel, 46 he said to them, “Take to heart all the words I have solemnly declared to you this day, so that you may command your children to obey carefully all the words of this law. 47 They are not just idle words for you—they are your life. By them you will live long in the land you are crossing the Jordan to possess.”

El Elohe Yahshrael! Hallelu YAH!

Mark 6 Yahushua left there and went to his home town, accompanied by his disciples. 2 When the Sabbath came, he began to teach in the synagogue, and many who heard him were amazed.

‘Where did this man get these things?’ they asked. ‘What’s this wisdom that has been given him? What are these remarkable miracles he is performing? 3 Isn’t this the carpenter? Isn’t this Mary’s son and the brother of James, Joseph, Judas and Simon? Aren’t his sisters here with us?’ And they took offence at him.

Matthew 13: 53 When Yahushua had finished these parables, he moved on from there. 54 Coming to his home town, he began teaching the people in their synagogue, and they were amazed. ‘Where did this man get this wisdom and these miraculous powers?’ they asked. 55 ‘Isn’t this the carpenter’s son? Isn’t his mother’s name Mary, and aren’t his brothers James, Joseph, Simon and Judas? 56 Aren’t all his sisters with us? Where then did this man get all these things?’ 57 And they took offence at him.
But Yahushua said to them, ‘A prophet is not without honour except in his own town and in his own home.’

John 7: After this, Yahushua went around in Galilee. He did not want to go about in Judea because the Jewish leaders there were looking for a way to kill him. 2 But when the Jewish Festival of Tabernacles was near, 3 Yahushua's brothers said to him, ‘Leave Galilee and go to Judea, so that your disciples there may see the works you do. 4 No one who wants to become a public figure acts in secret. Since you are doing these things, show yourself to the world.’ 5 For even his own brothers did not believe in him.

Mosesalex, you are wrong.

Apt. Sublime. Still trending.

The existence of the Creator or the supernatural is as clear as day. The quest now is how to worship him in truth and in spirit. The most important thing now is how to seek and find the one and only true God.

No need wasting time arguing with certain agents on specific assignments. Onye na nke ya!
