True. The wise are thinking ahead and preparing for eternity, others are busy with things of this world, blinded

nora544: When there is no fear why all the christian organisations from america run away from this countries.

At the moment in liberia only the doctors without border and the health center from SOS childvillages is working.

Why when chritians must not fear ebola run away all belong to this new churches from america like adeboye and this other water pastor have fear to travel to this country because non of them can realy heal.

No one must fear God, I never hear this in my country as a christian, but this fear comes also from this new churches with their miracles who where man mad.

Nora, Nora, Nora, you haven't been told to fear GOD in your church in your country abi?? Hmmm, one of those many churches that preach what their members want to hear, making them live comfortably in sin. Eiya...
I wonder the type of christian you are if you don't fear GOD. I wonder what you think christianity is. I wonder the type of christian you are that don't even know your purpose of being a christian and the will of GOD. I wonder what you're going to church to do. I wonder... Well, I'm not suprised. These things will come to pass....

*Joseph feared GOD that he doeth no deceit -Gen 42:18
*It is a commandment to fear GOD -Ex 18:21
*It was the fear of GOD that made Job remain faithful to GOD all through his trials. GOD Almighty said it Himself to satan-Job 1:8
*People who have the fear of GOD are the true Christians -Psalm 66:16; while sinners, that will perish don't have the fear of GOD -Ecc 8:12
*It was the fear of GOD that graced the sinner crucified with JESUS CHRIST at His right hand side to be saved and lack of fear of GOD condemned the other -Luke 23:40
*It is yet a commandment in the new testament to fear GOD -1 Peter 2:17

"Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man." (Ecclesiastes 12:13)
"Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come: and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters." (Revelation 14:7)

We should fear GOD because GOD is a jealous GOD and a consuming fire (Deut 4:24, Heb 12:29).
GOD hates sin -Psalm 5:5 and the wage of sin is death -Romans 6:23

AtheistD: From the comfort of your home you tell others not to be afraid of a very dangerous outbreak?

Why don't you head to Liberia and try out your faith and healing powers on the ebola sufferers?

Why would I tempt the Lord? He hasn't ordered me to go anywhere or do a thing.

I will sit at the comfort of my home because I have nothing to be afraid of.

Why won't you be afraid?? Why won't you panic and fear? Of course you should

Elijah78: What about those who Fear God?, Why did Jesus teach us to pray against the temptations and deliverance from evil? If i pray that God should not lead me into the temptation that will cause me to contact Ebola, does it mean i am fearful? If i express sincerely that i am really scared of Ebola, will God punish me? Why should i pretend that Ebola has no part in me? I think God will be angry with those who pretend that Ebola cannot do them any harm.

Only GOD we should fear ONLY GOD. You can be honest that ebola kills, but if you belong to the Almighty, you won't fear ebola. Or don't you know: "A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee." (Psalm 91:7)

This "ebola" situation is likened to the kingdom of darkness. Sure they have powers, they can kill, afflict and destroy, they torment and harm,they posses, they drag to hell, they can do all sorts of things to humans but that doesn't mean we should fear them. They have their own powers, yet, we know that but that doesn't mean we should fear them. We should fear only GOD alone. He will shield us from the kingdom of darkness as He will do to ebola. We only have to cast all our cares on Him. GOD doesn't want us to be afraid of anything, whether plague, ebola, disaster or the evil ones. As you rightfully read: both the unbelieving and the fearful will be cast into the lake of fire

ProphetUdeme: the owner of nairaland is an atheist while all his staffs are muslim.. The only religious topics that makes front page are those that mock or derail christianity like a nairalander by name ignis who mocked the story of hell and called God a wicked God.. Yeah she made front page and also adeboye's comment over escaping a temptation with a woman whatever.. Yeah they made front page.. But the real eternal truth that is damning many souls into everlasting and untold toture is being hidden from the people.. God have mercy from this satanic nairaland

So true. There are very many edifying threads here. Many, mostly on the awareness of hell and false doctrines. They don't make front page. Only the ones mocking GOD does. And the ones they try to ridicle. Like Highyo'. Many people don't read threads on sections, but only read front page materials. Once again, I'm not suprised. Even the mod we have on this our section is a pure atheist. What do you expect bro? Well, I'm not suprised. As few that read edifying post, the Lord will convict them.

The girl you mentioned don quote you , raining curses, don't reply her pls. Pls. Would she tell us she don't know the true purpose of hell before creating such topic?

ProphetUdeme: dont mind them... As many as the Lord our God shall call shall remain in the truth and they shall not be lost..... I pity these hard hearted fellows

I pity them brother, they are stiff-necked

Topics like this don't make front page. But worldliness and things the world likes

Changing natural to unnatural, adding to GOD's perfect, wonderfully and fearfully made work. Well, we all will answer to our creator someday. No be this world we dey??

haibe: Okay sir, but desist from preaching what you aren't sure of.

Let the females who truely who seek the kingdom of GOD read the verses I post and take heed. As for you:

"He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still." (Revelation 22:11)

How pathetic it has become to see almost everyone giving attention to this disease. They have become so fearful that they shiver at the hearing of "ebola". This is the work of the devil. he has put fear and confusion in their midst. O evil generation, if you fear the Lord as you fear this deadly virus, then you would run to take shelter in the shadow of the Almighty and escape the damnation of hell for eternity. They don't fear GOD but fear "ebola", and so keen on a possible solution or cure, because they don't want to die. The price of bitter-kola and salt has increased. They are So afraid of death. Oh, you think you won't die someday?? "ebola" can only kill the body, it can't kill the soul. Ye should fear Him that can kill the body and destroy the soul in hell -Luke 12:5.

To them that belong to the Lord have absolutely nothing to fear and worry about because:"I, even I, am he that comforteth you: who art thou, that thou shouldest be afraid of a man that shall die, and of the son of man which shall be made as grass; And forgettest the LORD thy maker, that hath stretched forth the heavens, and laid the foundations of the earth; and hast feared continually every day because of the fury of the oppressor, as if he were ready to destroy? and where is the fury of the oppressor?" (Isaiah 51:12-13) There's no furry of any "ebola" to them that belong to the Lord.

Are you among the fearful? Are you among them that don't believe in JESUS CHRIST? Don't ye know that: "But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death." (Revelation 21;
Believe in JESUS CHRIST this day and you will be saved, not only from "ebola", but also from the damnation of hell for eternity.

"He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty." (Psalm 91:1)

temigracie: ...lol...i can rememba d last tym one guy approached me in sch...he told me dat God despise d use of ear-rings,trousers, attachments n weave-ons, chains etc including jeans...he even made mention of versace (sed d logo portray a naked woman)....

The story will continue

haibe: this has nothing to do with high heels dude, try again or you can expressly comment on the verse while pasting the verse itself. That would give us room for a better discussion.

I'm in for no discussion, believe it or not

We all have sinned and come short of the glory of GOD. But a sinner is one who continues sinning and doesn't strive to please GOD but himself and his flesh. While a saint is one who was a sinner, but washed himself with the blood of JESUS CHRIST and stops sinning, walking in the statutes, laws and commandments of GOD. He strives to please GOD

haibe: I Know indecent dressing is wrong for a christain lady but what has high heel shoes got to Do with this, You need to prove that it is not right for ladies with scriptural backup or else we will assume you are preaching what you think is right.

The following verses proves the post and will condemn the stiff-necked:
1 Corinthians 6:19
Leviticus 18:3
2 Corinthians 6:14
Romans 12:2
James 4:4
Luke 16:15
Zephaniah 1:8
Proverbs 7:10
2 Kings 9:30
Revelation 2:20
Revelation 18:4

ProphetUdeme: i was about to post this but u were smarter... Nice reply... They are but hard hearted fellows with no preparation of obedience to the kingdom of God

Selecting only few verses in the Bible to suit their ways. Forgetting man shalt not live by bread alone, BUT BY EVERY WORD THAT COMES OUT FROM THE MOUTH OF GOD -Deut 8:3

ProphetUdeme: emmyskies did u also read this true story.. It is real and it shows everything that satan has been doing to these blindlukewarm christians in the spiritual realm. Read it its very edifying http://www.mcreveil.org/Anglais/witchcraft/PstJonas_en02.html

Yeah. I've read it from one till 13. It's very revealing. That is why I pity most christians because the god of this world has truely used a veil to blind their heart, that they have eyes but cannot see, mind but cannot understand, ear but cannot hear, and their path seemeth right unto them, but the end thereof is.......

Macelliot: Obinoscopy aren't an atheist, he is a Catholic!
Ok brother. All will be well?
The Problem is that the Christians are not United!

There will be falling away in the latter days, how has the mighty fallen. These days, false prophets are bound to arise and lead many astray. It's playing right before our eyes. Rapture is fast approaching. We just have to "But that which ye have already hold fast till I come. " (Revelation 2:25)

italo: The apostles never had a bible...yet they were the truest Christians.

How? They had the Church.

It was that same church that compiled the bible in the synod of bishops in Rome under pope Damasus in 382.

Na, they were directed by the Holy Spirit. All those while, their deeds were recorded and added to make up our existing Bible so we can learn and know

nora544: Yeah "where it is written in the Bible"

and the next is "praying and fasting"

Where is watching of pornography a sin written in the Bible?
Where is smoking a sin written in the Bible?
Where is sagging a sin written in the Bible?

We all are sinners, born a sinner. We all have sinned. But many of us have left the ways of sin and stop sinning, washing ourselves with the blood of JESUS CHRIST who love and redeemed us. This set of people are not called sinners any more, but righteous. They seek to please JESUS CHRIST and do His will, keeping His commandments and laws. To counter the verse you quoted, as the prayer of a sinner is an abomination before the Lord, the prayer of the righteous availeth much -James 5:16

nora544: I live a christian life, and I know what it means to be a real christian because not what we wear is important more important is our heart and that is what many nigerians not have.

Many nigerian woman behave outside as real christian but their heart is dark like a coal.

You live a christian life by your standards, what you wear is not important but your heart right? Kai, people no wan hear word. Blinded by the gods of this world. The new heresy is now "where is it written in the Bible?". I just pray many don't die and the accuser of the brethren come to claim his price by quoting 1 Cor 6:19

Your Bible and the guidance of the Holy Spirit

We measure our holiness with GOD's standard in the Bible. It's been already laid out for us, His laws, commandment and statutes.

Holiness to us means a life without sin, a perfect life, a just life, a righteous life, a total consecration and obedience to the will of GOD, total belief and faith in JESUS CHRIST and GOD Almighty

Where is it downplayed in the new testament? See, all you who are saying tithes doesn't count anymore, well, I just have one thing to say to you:

"He that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still." (Revelation 22:11)

All you mentioned are bad and not supposed to be done by Christian. Wearing of tight clothing and mini clothing will make opposite sex lust, and this is very grave, it is hard for offence to come but woe unto him/her from whence offence cometh from -Luke 17:1

It is a shame for a woman to uncover her head in the presence of GOD and while praying (1st cor 11:6), shameful things are not accepted in the sight of the Almighty (Num 12:14). A woman praying with her head open offereth strange prayers to GOD, and like Nadab and Abihu that offers strange fires before GOD, they will be rejected and consumed (Lev 10:1)

Macelliot: Brother! I think we Christians should request for A Christian section in the Religion Section.... I can't bear all the babaric behaviours of all these Satanists, Atheists, pagans e.t.c...
I am totally fed up with all these nonsense. I feel like quiting Nairaland....
Hope Seun, obinoscopy, mydd_44 will grant our request.
Pls brother, lets join hands together....
God bless you....

GOD bless you too brother. But truth is, this is the world we live in. The religion section already is like a christian section. Islamic section is a sub-section of religion section. Where wouldn't you find atheists? They are everywhere. They are among the reason why we're here, so they can change. Even the people you mentioned are all atheists. I don't know of Obinoscopy. But Seun and Mynd are atheist. So, what do you expect Nairaland is owned by an atheist, mods are atheist. Don't be perturbed brother, Christ has sent us as sheep among wolves. A christian section won't solve the problem. Rather, their likes will be quick to pollute the true gospel and teaching, turning the unstable and babes away from the true faith. This is the sole reason why Highyo have stopped posting here. Na them get nairaland, we're here to win them. Stand on the truth no matter how discouraging and stiff-necked this people are. GOD bless you

If you had lived in time of Noah, you would have perished because only eight people survived -Noah and his family. Your chances of being a righteous man then would be very very slim because there was no law. It was more like "everybody do what you like". You should appreciate this time we are now in. Think of the fate of our forefathers and great grand parents and their generations in their time, think of their fate. But we exist now in time where the gospel has reached us and we have a complete word of GOD -BIBLE. You should appreciate GOD my brother. Many lived and died without even hearing the slightest of the gospel to be saved. It is a good thing you know that making heaven is very hard. Very very hard. That is why Christ tells us in Luke 13:24 to strive to enter the kingdom of GOD from the narrow gate, for many will seek to enter in but will not. If a righteous live Holy till the point of his death and sin, it is possible. That is why we need to surrender all to JESUS CHRIST, the master, the captain of our salvation. It is not by our making we can get to heaven. Left for our strength alone, nobody can get to heaven that made the disciple of Christ ask Him "Who then can be saved?" This was JESUS reply: WITH MEN, IT IS NOT POSSIBLE BUT WITH GOD, ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE. So my brother, walk with JESUS CHRIST, pray that GOD should take absolute control of your life and uphold you till the very end. Tell Him to show you his mercy and refrain you from sinning against Him. Tell Him that He knows your end, He knows when it is appointed of you to die, that when the time comes, He should take you home. Cast all of your cares on him my brother, it is not by strength we can make it, lest any man should boast, the battle is not for the mighty nor for the swift, neither it is of him that runneth or of him that willeth, but of the LORD that showeth mercy

fubbyy: if its me of 1 to 2 years back I would've finished you for calling me a fool but as it is now I don't just have a say

Good. You're growing. Because you know the consequence of him that call his brother a fool according to Matthew 5:22 and should forgive your offenders at all cost no matter what. I'm impressed. But something still need be done

fubbyy: what exactly should I do? Keep praying? I've done that severally and fasting inclusively but nothing happened, which other pattern?

You may say I should keep off sin, to be candid with you,its now that I know that a poor man doesn't even have the power to sin, even if I want to sin it requires money

I'm not doing anything bad

Can we talk privately? Like on facebook or whatsapp

fubbyy: are you one of the people who added me?

The winner's chapel guy or chosen?

Nope. It's here I keep warning you: turn to GOD and GOD alone. You've not done what you're supposed to do that's why it seems as if nothing's happening. I believe you know the price for bargaining with the devil

Fubby, someday sometime, you will remember me. I've told, I've encouraged you, but you won't listen. I pray you break loose before it will consume you

PastorOluT: Hmm, agreed bt do we just pray?

What else do we do?
