Miss Ope: Are these laws not God's laws anymore? Or isn't christ God anymore? ...woo am confused jor...confusion everywhere sef sometime I feel like being an Atheist.... But I can't because I believe in Christ ....he's my friend and he's spoken to me before...... just dat people are confusing me and I don't even know wat to believe anymore.Jesus told us that he has not come to abolish the law. Tithe is relevant,if the new testament did not mention categorically that tithe is abolished,that means d apostles were faithful in tithing and never thought of not paying it. The tithe is used by the church to spread the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ. WISE THINKING IS: If I pay my tithe to the pastor, can it hinder me from making heaven? If it is no,then it is better to pay it. If I do not pay my tithe, can it hinder me from making heaven, if it is not abolished by God.?If it can hinder on the ground of robbery,& disobedience,then it is wise to pay the tithe. If it is not required,and i did not pay. Would I have the same reward in heaven with those that paid their tithes foolishly to the pastors? Definitely not. At least part of the tithe will be used for God by the pastor.Like generating electrical power during service,printing of tracts,paying for the rental bill of the church premises or erecting the chuch building. Such a giver of d tithe will share in the reward. If you read Matt 23:23 Jesus said" Woe to you,Scribes,Pharasees,hypocrites! For you tithe mint and dill and cummin,& have neglected d WEIGHTIER matters of the law :justice and mercy and faithfulness.These you OUGHT TO HAVE DONE,WITHOUT NEGLECTING THE OTHERS. This means it is compulsory but should be in conjuction with the other more important part of the law,like Justice etc. Matt 5:20 "For I tell u ,unless ur righteousness exceeds that of d scribes and Pharasees,you will NEVER ENTER THE KINGDOM OF GOD. The Pharasees used to pay their tithes ,u too must pay your tithes,they negnected Justice ,mercy etc but you must add these to ur tithe, b4 you can make heaven. Jesus said in Matt5:17 That he did not come to abolish the law.......19 "Ther4 whoever relaxes one of these commandments & teaches others to do d same will be called least in d kingdom of heaven,but he whoever DOES THEM & teaches them will be called great in d kingdom of heaven. Non payment of tithe or payment to the widows or less previledged is relaxing the law. An able bodied person will star to go to church toward end of the month,knowing that people will dstribute their tithes to him,as long as he puts on a torn cloth. Another point is, if a widow collects tithe from a church member,who would she pay her tithe to?To the church or to a less priviledged widow? That second reciever would look for somebody else to give his tithe to ; and it will go on and on until it will no longer be divisible.This is confusion,unless the less priviledged will not pay tithe . If they do not pay tithe, then the giver of the tithe is also not bound to give his tithe. Then the church of God will not have funds to finance its projects. The land on which ur church was erected was purchsed ,d building,the chairs,microphones,generators, goes into millions of naira.Monthly rental of space for some chuches is up to #300,000.00 per month If you do not drop ur tithe, are u ready to follow what the early chuch practised in Acts 4:34"There was not a needy person among them ,for as many as were owners of lands or houses sold them & brought proceeds of what was sold". They paid more than tithes,there is no law against this. My advice to yoy and others is "LET US FULFILL ALL RIGHTEOUSNESS. To be carnally minded is death,but to be spiritually minded is life and peace. Pay your tithe to ur pastor ,what he does with the tithe is no longer our business,he will give account of it on the day of judgement. Thanks. |
I have not been there b4,if ur motive for asking is because u are contemplating becoming a member,I would advice u put it into prayer first. Many people badmouth Churches they know little or nothing about. You can have a true church of God but a bad branch pastor or occultic pastor doing something diff from the doctrine God geve the General Overseer to follow. As we read that among d twelve disciples of the Lord Jesus,there was a minus one,Judas Iscariot. All in all,pray b4 u attend their service. Whatever God tell you is the final. Thanks |
There are people that love their bondage and darkness more than light.because it protects their evil deeds. |
[quote author=wazobia_for_u]Infact, my signature is now more high than before, i want to guess that there will be change in reasoning when the economy of Nigeria is better, one good reason why i love Jehovah witness than any other xtian is that they know what to preach. Enilove i am very sure that you and your family will still remain in islam if you are all in a good country that is not looking for miracle up and down. Anyway if you care to know, i called myself a chrislam because i was born into the family that practices the two,i have more knowledge about christianity than many called christian today,i attended Bible school for many years and even go out in preaching without a bias mind. Christians make it worst for me and other that really want to know more by saying: Jesus die for your sin - what if he did not die,i shud not bliv in God? There is power in the blood - did he not perfom wonder when he was alive, why did you love Jesus because of blood? There is miracle in our church - is that the only way to know God exist? When they want to scatter everything, they will tell you to go in spirit before you know Jesus or God,did all the disciples go in spirit before they know Jesus and God? You called yourself Christ-like but you hardly follow what Jesus himself said but what people said after he left : Do you know the teaching of Jesus on how to pray? Do you follow that? How many church do that again? Do you know Jesus warning about repitition of the same words in prayer? Do you loyal to the warning? Jesus called everybody that accept him and believe in God his brother and sister not that he is their father, so Jesus is my brother according to Bible I can call him my father because i called my elder brother my father just because of the love i have for him not with blind mind that he is really my brother Preach to me without saying: Jesus die for your sin -so i should love him bcus he died or because he was God sent? There is power in the blood Miracle in our church Go in spirit before you know God I bliv in all prophet and i believ in ONE GOD (Jesus and MMHD that i know have one GOD)[/quote]I hope you are not a member of Chrislaham? It is ignorance to believe all prophets when Jesus warned us to beware of false prophet. As for me and my family we shall serve God the father of our Lord Jesus for the rest of our lives.We shall never serve Allah in the name of Jesus. Your post does not have any meaning and correlation to the subject. |
Don't u ever eat such a meat,it is meant to cage ur destiny. When an alfa makes an incision on a meat that is meant for consumption,this is for evil purpose. A true God will not choose,a meat meant to be eating in writing His name. That is but taking the name of the lord in vain. The god does not see any better place to write his name than on a piece of meat. A true God will write His name in your heart.Foolishness is a sin b4 God. This is a lesson for any child of God.Be4 u eat any food u better pray on eat and plead the blood of Jesus on it.Even the meat that u buy from the market yourself,pray on it very well. You must not eat meat sacrificed to idols. That is d work of d alfa. I pray that no christian would eat such meat with them. It is not a miracle it is diabolic and wickedness in disguise.Incision on a meat is evil The bible says people perish for lack of knowledge. |
Geewan: ^^^I hope you can read and write?You lied by saying, I and my mum went ....It was only my mum.It is still there.I said she narrated this to me in that thread. Can you check this and confirm your mistake, please.Lets assume it was not intentional. I was referring to Geneses 17 alright. The thread on "the name of Jesus is powerless"is right and wrong,depending on how you view it. If a sinner commits a sin and calls the name of Jesus it would be powerless and useless for him. A witch cannot call on the name of Jesus to recieve power.Any disobedience pastor cannot call the name of Jesus and expect miracles. In acts 19:13 "Then certain of d vagabond Jews,exorcists,took upon them to call over them which had evil spirits in the name of d Lord Jesus ,saying ,We adjure you by Jesus whom Paul preacheth. And there were 7 sons of Sceva, a Jew ,& chief of the priest which did so. And the evil spirit answered and said ,Jesus I know,and Paul I know ;but who are ye?verse 16 says" And the man in whom the evil spirit was, leaped on them,& overcame them all,& prevail against them all,so that they fled out of d house naked and wounded" The verses b4 that talks about God performing miracles c/o Paul in the name of Jesus.But those vagabonds wanted to do the same. This is to say ,spiritualy you are know inside out by God and the devils. For a born again spirit filled child of God ,that is living a holy life and prayerful,the name of Jesus is powerful and and no Power on earth ,underneath the earth or in the second heaven ,the abode of evil spirit,that can challenge it. Have you read or heard of Prophet Ayo Babalola? He was the founder of the Christ Apostolic Church in Nigeria. In 1930 in Oke oye street in Ilesha, prophet Ayo Babalola revived and rose up from the dead the corpse of a child that was being taking home by relatives and sympathizers. There was news and records that "People from across d nation began to troop to Ilesha .People of diff tribes,shades & colours with diverse ailments and incurable diseases from various towns were loaded into vehicles & brought to Ilesha and they returned healed.All roads led to Ilesha as people from all walks of life and nations came to receive healings and witness the unusual things that were happening there. It was also recorded that there was no other catchword for commercial drivers to passengers than "come and watch cinema at Ilesha" Through this man of God,there were healings of d scale and nature that would shock.Diseases and ailment of all kinds bowed at the name of Jesus.Miracles of creative nature were common and rampant.The blind went back home seeing; the dumb began to speak clearly and the ears of the deaf were loosened. There were confessions too!Witches and wizards and familiar spirits who mistakenky stepped on that ground were arrested by God and confessed their evil works. Some of the witches under higher power of the holy spirit even strip themselves naked for people to see male organs which they possessed in addition to their normal female organs." The above marked the Revival of God's power in Nigeria.That was how christianity spread throughout the world,by signs and by power in the name of Jesus. This happened in Nigeria ,which you can verify The name of Jesus is powerful in the life of a child of God. I have testimonies concerning his name. But Jesus hates sins . As per lies,Pastors can lie ,because there is no power of God in them.To receive d power of God takes holyness,Prayers and fastings,love,humility,brokennes,faith,consecration and must have a strong partnership with d Holy Spirit. How many pastors are ready nowadays for this?. Mind you,if they do not repent they cannot make heaven. Thanks. |
Geewan: @eniloveI believe and I know that Jesus is God, since his father in heaven is God. The bible talks about gods. Thou shall not worship other gods beside me". psalm 82:6 says"I have said ye are gods , and all of you are children of the most High". If the bible calls His created beings gods and also calls graven images gods,that is to tell u that god is a title. We are gods ,that is, we the children of God are gods,because He created us in His image( image of God ). If a lion can create,if it creates something in its image( lion like) ,that lion like image created by the super lion is a "lion" Calling Jesus God does not mean,God Almighty the Father.the son of God is God.Because his birth was directly by the holy spirit of God. Sango,Oya,Iye moja etc are idols and gods. Jesus is more qualified as a child of God to be called God. God is a title ,God the Father has a name and in Ex 20:7 Moses said to the Israelites" Thou shall not take the name of thy God in vain,for the Lord will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain."God has name.God is not the name of God. If u say Jesus is not entitled to be called God,what do say to this book written about 1400 years before Jesus was born: Proverb 8:22 - 36." And the Lord possessed me in d biginning of his way, b4 His works of old.I was set up from everlasting, from d biginning ,or ever the earth was When there were no depths;I was brought forth;when there were ni fountains abounding with water.Be4 d monutains were settled,b4 d hills was I brought forth:While as yet he had not made earth ,nor the field,nor d highest part of the dust of the world.When he prepared d heavens ,I was there :when he strenghtened the fountains of the deep:When he prepared the heavens,I was there:When he set a compass upon the face of the depth:When he established d clouds above:when he strenghtened d fountains of d deep:When he gave to d sea his decree ..............Then I was by him,as one brought up with him:and I was daily his delight ,rejoicing always b4 him; Rejoicing in d habitable part of his earth; and my delights were with the sons of men. Now there4 hearken unto me ,O ye children:for blessed are they that keep my ways.Hear instructions, and be wise ,& refuse it not.Blessed is d man that heareth me,watching daily at my gates,waiting at d posts of my doors.For whoso findeth me findeth life,and shall obtain favour of the Lord.But he that sinneth against me wrongeth his own soul:all they that hate me love death." Who was the above refering to?What do we call someone like that.Is the person not greater than the Angels and the devils?Is he not qualified to be called the child of the God that set a compass upon tbe face of the earth? It says " THE LORD POSSESSED ME IN THE BIGINNING OF HIS WAY.Verse30 I WAS DAILY HIS DELIGHT. That is why God said in John 3:16 For God so love the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believeth him shall not perish but have everlasting life. If you say Jesus did not call himself the son of God.The above John 3:16 is the biblical account testifying to this. And I believe him for his miracles,his abstainance from the worldly marriage( because his children would make one to doubt his claims as the son of God.) ,his power in my life. My friend I beg you in the name of Jesus,try and pray ,just one,that" Jesus if you are real and as people claim that you are a son of God show urself to me ,and I will believe". Thanks |
Geewan: @enilove,It is carnality to say "peace be upon any prophet that is dead." The prayers of d living cannot affect the dead when God has already judged the person. If the prophet is in hell fire,no amount of prayer here on earth can change the decision of God. If he is in heaven,it will not add to his peace in heaven,because there is nothing else in heaven but peace and joy.You can only pray for peace for yourself on this earth and be sure of where u are going,if not ,billions of sacrifices and mouthy of "peace" for the person can not take him away from hell fire.This a spiritual knowledge. To start with,the bible says every liar shall find their part in d lake of fire. If I lie because I want to prove a point,the person would end in hell fire.This is known to any born again christian. Why must you lie concerning what I posted & can still be accessed by people on the internet ? I said , My mum told me of how she witnessed the power of God when my junior brother was about to die.My brother was just prayed for by the people in the church and he recovered. She told me they did not ask her for a penny.She was then a matron for the "Islamic Echo" at Ilasamaja, in Lagos in 1981- 1990. This was what I posted because u asked why muslims were converting to Christianity.And u gave ur opinion as to why, and I told u why I had to change.Am never ashamed to testify to the goodness of God in my life.This is because "We overcome by d blood of d lamb and by the word of our testimonies.Rev.12:11. I come from Ota in in Ogun state.So I knew of BABA ALAWO but never visited any and would never visit any. My mum was a muslim even when I got converted, it was not her influence,but my quest to know the true God that made me to change. The christians do not pray to Jesus as u alleged but to God through the Lord Jesus Christ. I have other awesome testimonies which I would have loved to share on this forum, but am afraid you might twist it again. I pray that God will arrest your soul and you will know that this life is not a joking matter. Christianity is a spiritual truth.I dont have to dress like the Jew or like Jesus or his apostles b4 I will be seen as a christian or make heaven.I don have to speak their language b4 God will answer my prayers.I dont have to face the Temple in Jerusalem b4 God ,in heaven,can answer my prayers. Muhammed told muslims that their quran is to ward off evil and that the throne of Allah is on the sea or water. But the God I am now serving in in heaven,not here on earth or inside the water. The truth is that salvation is of the Jews. May be u did not know why God called Abraham away from his father land.The devil knew that salvation was coming to mankind,he wanted to plant discord from d biginning through Ishmael,but God told Abraham that his covenant is not with Ishmael,God told Abraham to send Ishmael away with his mother,which he did.The descendants of ishmael are the Arabs.That is why they are not living together with d Israelites.Abraham was buried in Israel,and Isaac and Jacob. The devil had been using the slave of Sarah from d biginning but God told Abraham to send her away ,and that His plan of Salvation is through Isaac, from where came Jesus Christ.All d prophets in the quran,which muhammed copied from the bible,were all Israelites except Muhammed,who claimed that God called him,but could not show any sign;even by raising a dead chicken back to life.He got killed c/o poison. As I said,I am a witness to d power of God through his son Jesus Christ.Not with d assistance of any pastor but direct encounter with his power and in his name.With holiness in the name of Jesus every knee does bow,even that of Satan and his demons. You can try him.Just believe that he died for your sins and pray that God Almighty the father of the Lord Jesus should show you His signs. God will reveal himself to you and direct your life away from hell fire in the name of Jesus,whether u like it or not. Thanks. |
[quote author=wazobia_for_u]____---___ i want you to know this, Jesus is also a prophet in islam, and all prophet before him are also accept has prophet of God and they all have their books. Its is stated in islam that all muslim must accept all prophet not excluding Jesus All the miracles he performed in the Bible are also in the Quran, all muslim know he was born without man sperm and his mother Mary was a virgin, all his story life from womb till when he was about to be cruxify are in the Quran also but according to islam he was not cruxify, All muslim belief he is the Messiah and he still coming back and that is the rapture Jesus was never for once called himself God and he kept letting the world know that he was sent my heavingly Father(God) read Mathew from begining The first and second time God introduces Jesus to the world when he was ano adult was after John bamptist him and when he was with the desciples and how did God introduced him? ( Son whom am well pleased) The way some xtian use or handle the issue of son is so confusing, God uses son because of the Love he has for him not that he is really God son, am sure you know he is not the only one God uses son for? Jesus sometimes called himself son of MAN and sometimes use my FATHER in heaven.. Reason with it Do you know what Jesus himself called his follower? So who did Jesus pray to? I bliv is God and is the same God muslim pray to[/quote]My friend,I was born into a muslim family, I am now a christian.I know that the two are different. The muslims do not know Jesus, am talking from experience. A pastor can shout Jesus 1000 times and would not know Jesus. There is a difference btw knowing Jesus in the bible, reading about his birth,his ministry on earth, his resurrection, and knowing him spiritualy. A beer Palour owner will be boasting"what do u want to tell me about 'stout' , their distributors come here every week ,am their no 1 customer in this area".But does he or she know about the production mix of the product?.That production mix is the relationship btw God and Jesus. To know much about d production secret u must be a family member of the owners of Guiness. To know Jesus Christ and his real relationship with God ,you must be born again child of God.You must accept Jesus Christ and accept that he died for your sins,then ask God the father to forgive u of your past sins because of the death of Jesus. You are now God's child You are now born anew. It is then you have the authority to call his name & he will answer you. God will be revealing things to you. And when you die you can make heaven. The quran says in surat 2:40 - 41 "O children of Israel!Remember my favour wherewith I favoured you,& fulfil ur part of d covenant,I shall fulfil my part of the covenant and fear me.And believe in that which I reveal,confirming that which ye posses already of the scripture....... But in surat 109 :1-6 It says the Israelites are not worshipping the same God with Muhammed. He said in surat 2:47 " O children of Israel !Remember my favour wherewith I favour u and how I preferred u to all creatures. But still says he does not know the God d Israelites are worshipping in Sura 109. Another thing is that Islam is not realy observing one God as it preaches. Read surat 2:49. And remember when we did deliver you from Pharaoh's folk,........verse 50 "And when we brought you through the red sea......verse 52 "Then even after that ,we pardon u in order that ye might give thanks" Why is the quran now reported in the 1st person Plural Pronoun "WE". Throughout the old and new testament in the bible it is about "I God that delivered you out from the land of Egypt."Not WE that delivered u". Surat 2:53 "And we gave Moses the Scripture..."How many are they that gave Moses d scripture. because they had been worshipping many idols in the kaaba for years,Muhammed revolted and retain only Allah in the Kaaba ,and tried to link all the miracle God did for d Israelites to Allah,so that they might think the God that the Israelites worship,which people knew to be one God,was the God that called him.Read hadith u will see that the first wife of Muhammed had a Christian as friend.The story of Abraham Isaac,Moses were known to every Arabian then,it was not strange, they also had d bible. Quran says Jesus was not crucified.The devil tried to use Peter to persuade Jesus not to go to Jerusalem and be killed But Jesus rebuked him and said "Get thee behind me Satan". What Satan could not do through Peter,he is now spreading through Islam ,to think Jesus was not crucified,in order to hinder many from receiving d light & deliverance. The same goes with the ten commandments.The essence of the deliverance God gave d Israelites is the Ten commandments.Where did Allah mention in the quran that "these are the Ten commandments I or we( they might be many) gave the Israelites"? All the prophets mentioned in d quran were all Israelites, except muhammed who gave account of himself. Jesus that came 500 yrs with evidence of God's power to heal and deliver,said one man one woman.Muhammed said the same God told him one man and 1 to 4 wives.And God wrote in the quran that he Allah commanded Muhammed to marry his son's wife,and wrote in d quran that a man can beat his wife.But Jesus said "whoever marries a divorced woman commits adultery."This is to discourage adultery and breaking homes. There is no harm in mentioning the two religions to God and tell him to choose which ever He wants you to follow.God is not a God that creates confusion but Satan and our ignorance in just believing anything, instead of believing everything from God in prayers. Thanks. |
chioms4me: am a believer, a graduate and i work. am a beautiful lady and in my early 30ş and realy long to settle down. am bothered cos i hardly see or get anyone to ask me out 4 friendship talkless marriage. dont know wat d problem is cos am well mannered and approachable.The solution in summary is fasting and prayers.Do not believe those that will tell u that deliverance is not necessary,if u do it and receive testimonies,u have bargain rightly. Do not be decieved.Since it is not an harbalist home,it is not about going to d stream to bath,it not where u visit and u get a soap and oil,it is not a pastor that will pray for you.This is a place where u will be able to defend and say with assurance that God is real. Go to MFM and pray. But no trousers,weave on,lipsticks are allowed. You must be ready to be born again.It a church of God for prayers and complete holiness. Try it and u will get testimonies. |
What you need is prayer.It is a demonic activity. You are too far from God.The earlier you realise this the better . B4 going to bed every night,pray like this: Father forgive me of all my sins. I accept and believe that Jesus died for me on the cross at Calvary.Jesus come into my life be my personal lord and saviour. Any spirit or demon that will come to me in my sleep,fire of God destroy the spirit and demon in Jesus name. I cover myself with the blood of Jesus.No weapon fashioned against me shall prosper ,in Jesus name. Read psalm 4:1- the end. Just try this,& come and tell of ur experience. God is real,those things are not ordinary. Thanks. |
Godprophet: BelovedAmen |
Amen |
The God of Abraham,Isaac and Jacob is the God the jews ( Judaism ) and the Christians world wide are calling on and which they worship. The Judaism ,as you rightly said did not believe that Jesus was the messiah because of their greed and selfishness.There are many Jews that believed Jesus and are called Christians among the Jews who do not follow Judaism but knew that Jesus is the Christ Which the Pharasees and the Sadusees are still expecting. The Christians and the muslims are not serving the same God.Surat 109 :1- 6 says clearly that the Christians and the muslims are not worshipping the same God. Believing in one God does not make the person to be serving the true God. About 3000 yrs b4 Islam ,God called Abraham,Moses and other prophets who were Jews, and they knew and talked and recorded in the bible that God is one. God called Abraham for a purpose.That purpose was to seperate him from the idol worshippers and consecrate his descendants ,that is, to purify them for the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ. That was why even Abraham could not make heaven until Jesus came and shed his blood. But only few would understand this because it is a spiritual level ,that somebody with a carnal mind can not understand.God's curse on Adam is upon every human being born by sperm and eggs of a human. The lineage of any man or woman is linked to the paternal ancestors. Jesus had no earthly father and so did not inherit the curse God placed on Adam and Eve for the disobedience of God's command in the garden of Eden. The point is that some are working directly & ignorantly for the Satan ,the antichrist,but would not believe. God revealed this in 1John 2:22 that "Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is Christ?He is antichrist ,that denieth the father and the son."This was a revelation given about 500 yrs b4 Islam. A carnal mind does not understand how the spirit of God works. They would expect God to have a wife b4 getting a son.There minds and thinking can not just understand that God did not have wife b4 creating all the Angels in heaven. No amount of debate or argument that can make any witch or wizard to change or believe because "he that is in her is greater than her".The spirit will close her mind from reasoning aright. The only way out for anybody that is after serving the right God is to pray about it. |
blink182: You both spoke well. Agreed that the man of God doesn't need the glory or whatever but they should have at least shown some form of appreciation no matter how small and they should do it as a team.Have you forgotten that Jesus healed10 lepers in Luke 17:12 and only one turned back and thank him and showed appreciation to God in heaven ?. At times we dont value what God has done for us talkless from human beings. You can lend someone money and would not want to pay u back the money he owed. Whatever we do, we do it for God not for human appreciation,if not you have gotten ur reward. Thanks |
May be those majority of the team members are christians who felt that "Help does not come from West,East,South but from above".And may be they remember that God does not share His glory with anyone. It may also be that, they can read the mind of the man of God TBJ that says in Galatians 5:26 that we should not be desirous of vain glory. More still,it might be that they knew that Prophet T B Joshua is a man of God and he said and gave those prophecies not because he wanted people to know he is a man of God,but only gave the word as sent by God .Because Jesus said whatever we do for people to see and respect us for , is like receiving the reward from men and not from God. Lastly,the cup does not belong to the super Eagles but to the nation,and they do not want make the nation to be ridiculed by other nations when it might degenerate to "I am the first that gave the prophecy but they did not come to me but went to prophet Ologun" ,because soon about 20 pastors will be laying claim to being the first to give a prophecy. Football is a worldly matter and as christians we should not love the things of this world at the detriment of our salvation and other souls. Thanks. |
Omo Alata: God bless you eniloveThank also,may God bless you. Some people don't know that things are happening in this world and serious prayers and holiness are needed to battle them and prevail. Jesus said "Since the time of John the baptist the kingdom of heaven suffers violence and the violent ones take it by force." If we are not spiritually violent some powers will waste people's lives and continue with their children unhindered. |
A prayer in the name of Jesus is not occultism. A back to sender prayer in the name of Jesus,without anyone in your mind,is not occultic prayer. Proverbs 26:27 says" Whoso diggeth a pit shall fall therein;and he that rolleth a stone, it will return upon him". Is this not a prayer of back to the sender? Was solomon practicing cultism too? Psalm 109:17 says "As he loved cursing,so let it come unto him; as he delighted not in blessings , so let be far from him".verse 20 "Let this be d reward of mine adversaries from the Lord;and of them that speak evil against my soul". Those were the prayers of David. Is praying the psalmist prayers the practice of occult?. Revelation 13:10 ."He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity; he that killeth by sword must be killed with the sword." Is this not a prayer of back to sender? Can you remember what God did in Esther 7:10"So they hanged Haman on the gallows that he had prepared for Mordecal.Then was the kings wrath pacified."Is that not back to sender case? Psalm 35 :8 .......and let his net that he hath hid catch himself. Unless you are going to call the bible an occult book or you suggest that the above mentioned part and other numerous chapters and verses be removed from the bible,I will not agree with you on this you point. What you need to understand is that prayers are spiritual.Eph.6:12 says "For we wrestle not against flesh & blood ,but against principalities,against powers against the rulers of darkness of this world ,against spiritual wickedness in high places." How and when do we wrestle? We wrestle when we pray and fast ,reject evil,claim what belongs to us in prayers,and when we confess the word of God. In prayer u are battling in the spirit with the help of God. But when someone slaps u or curse u,that is physical not spiritual.You must not fight back or curse those that curses you,but you can reject the curses because it is spiritual.If the curse is from an harbalist,u can reject it and give a decree for the curses to go back to the sender,because that is spiritual.For the curse to back fire ,u must have authority in Christ Jesus ,if not it will not go back.And that that is not an occult practice. Physical fight and hatred is what God hates.You must love and pray for ur enemies because u can identify the enemies.And in prayers ,if take someone as ur enemies & u are praying against such a person,the prayers will not be answered,except if it not in d name of Jesus.Truth is,that person is a sinner and has made himself an enemy to those his praying against.This is a case of two fighting. You can not pray against someone with witchcraft,but u can pray against the spirit of wichcraft inside the person. In a case where, because u erected a fence round ur building,though the landlords in the area have tried to persuade u against it and u rejected for sucurity reasons,and some of the Landlords came to u early morning around 5.40 am and stood a little far from ur house and pointing hands in the direction if ur house started cursing you and your family . You not commited any offence against the state or community law nor have u done any wrong, but they feel that ur compound should be allowed to people to link to the main road.If among the curses that early morning was that "the person and his family will not live in that compound in good health and in peace,and it is only the going out of the person the family would see but they will not witness his coming back "What will you do as a christian were they are so bold as to bringing sacrifice close to ur gate.? Surely as a spirit filled child of God,u will know that the curses were not jokes and could prosper if u do not reject them and command the evil spirits attached to them to go back to the senders.But while praying, if in ur mind u habor hatred towards them and have pictured anyone among them with ur mind as ur enemies,ur prayers might not be answered unless you see it that "we wrestle not against flesh and blood" .And about 3 months later,if two among them came to ask for forgiveness and gave their lives to Christ,that is not cultism. There is no cultism in the prayers to God,if u pray amiss it will not be answered by God.You will not see the effect of ur prayers. Jesus said a house that is divided against itself shall not stand.So Satan can not bring the effect of such prayers to pass,knowing that it would reduce his followers. I do not criticise any church,unless i have been a member of such a church and can say from my experience that it is not a church of God.But, the says that every idle word we speak shall be accounted for. The pharasees said the same against Jesus ,they said he was casting out devils with d spirit of the devil. because of lack of our spiritual knowledge ,we so called christians are the ones crucifying Jesus again and indirectly hindering the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ.The unbelievers would be discouraged because a christian says "this church is occultic and that one is 419" etc That was what gave an infidel ,who is in total darkness,the courage to say that the Redeemed Church with Pastor Adeboye is practicing cultism. 1John 2:22 says Who is a liar but he that denieth that Jesus is the christ?He is antichrist ,that denieth the father and the son." We should be very careful of what we say against the church of God and His ministers because judgement will start from the church, and it is not the building but the christians who go to church for entertainment and gossiping. Thanks. |
You are a blessing.The devil and his agents shall not harvest your soul ,in the name of Jesus. I also pray that those who have been decieved by the devil, believing his lies shall read with reasoning and shall come back to their senses and be set free, in the name of Jesus. Thanks |

[quote author=sidespin]In the month of February 1985, we had our normal meeting in the sea, after which I decided to travel to Port Harcourt in Rivers State, to visit my late uncle's wife. I met a man called Anthony. He has a workshop at Nwaja Junction, along Trans-Amadi Road, Port Harcourt, Rivers State. He sent for me and since in our society we have a law never to refuse calls, I decided to answer his call. I went to him in the afternoon on a Thursday of that week. He started by saying God has given him a message for me. He brought out his Bible and started preaching. There were three other Christians seated (a male and two females). He continued his preaching for a long time and I wasn't sure I heard all he said. He asked me to kneel down for prayers. I obeyed and quietly knelt down. Immediately he started his prayers. I was knocked down by the spirit of God and I fell flat. I struggled up and stood like an iron. I destroyed the iron chairs inside the workshop. I looked outside and saw three of our secret society members, a man and two girls. They came in human form and moved towards the door but because of the power of God they could not enter. I am sure the alarm in the sea alerted them of the trouble and with the T.V. they knew where the problem was and had sent the 'powerless' rescue team. This always happens when any member runs into trouble. While the two Christian men pulled me down on my knees, the girls continued praying and binding the demons, but they were not specific. They asked me if I believed in Jesus Christ, I said nothing. They asked me to call the name of Jesus, I refused. They asked me my own name and I told them. They struggled for hours and released me to go. No spirit was removed from me, so I went out the same way as when I came in. THE CHURCH EVENTS The following day being Friday, I was invited by the same Anthony to attend their night vigil at the Assemblies of God church, Silver Valley, Port Harcourt. I accepted this invitation because attending church services to cause slumber and confusion was part of our assignments. The program started with choruses. We sang until one of the members raised a popular chorus by a particular Christian Band, of the powerlessness of other powers except Jesus' power. Then I started laughing. I laughed because when in the spirit I looked into their lives almost three quarters of the people singing this chorus were living in sin. I knew that because of the sins in their lives, they were exposed and could be harmed seriously by these powers. It is important that Christians obey the word of God and not allow besetting sins to remain in their lives. In that service we were four from the sea and were singing and clapping with them. Again I want to stress here that when a service is started, members should be advised first to confess their sins, then go into a period of real praises to God. This will make an agent of Satan present very uncomfortable and in fact escape for his/her life. In this particular service we were very comfortable and even went into operation. Many started sleeping, choruses were sung weakly and things went zig-zag. Brother Anthony had already told them about me so at about 2.00 a.m. they called me out to pray for me. As soon as I came out to the front they started pleading the blood of Jesus. I stopped them and said: “It is not pleading the blood that is the solution. I am a deep secret society member. If you agree that you can deliver me, then will I kneel down.” These words I spoke were not premeditated. THE BLOOD OF JESUS SCARES THE DEMONS AND PROTECTS THE BELIEVER, BUT DOES NOT BIND DEMONS. Binding of demons only takes place when the Christian uses his authority and gives the command. They agreed and I knelt down. At that point a sister led by the Sprit of God shouted and said: “If you are not worthy, do not come near!” I am sure many did not understand what she meant. It is dangerous for a Christian living in sin to cast out demons. Many withdrew and a few came out to pray for me. As they started with “In Jesus name,” I heard a big bang inside me and fell on the floor. Immediately the flying demon in me went into action. I started running with my chest. Anybody possessed with this flying demon is always very wicked and dangerous. The brethren never saw what was happening spiritually. I was running because of the stronger power in the room. Two opposing forces went into action and the atmosphere changed. I suddenly stood up and became very violent etc. A demon went out of me and possessed a boy in their midst and he started fighting them, trying to rescue me. The brethren never wasted time with him rather they took him and others who were afraid to the church vestry and locked them inside. This continued till 7.00 a.m. I was physically exhausted and became quiet, so the brethren gathered around me again and started shouting: “Name them!” “Who are they?” etc. I kept quiet. After waiting for a long time and I said nothing, they were deceived to believe that I was delivered. They prayed and we dismissed. I was so physically weak that I found it difficult to walk out of the church. But something happened, for as soon as I walked out of the church and crossed the road, I became very strong physically. Perhaps some of the demons that left came back. I became very angry and decided to take vengeance on the church. “This people had insulted me” I said to myself, and for this insult I was going back to Lagos and get more powers with others as wicked as myself, and then come back to Port Harcourt to take vengeance on ALL the members of the Assembly of God, Silver Valley. EN ROUTE TO LAGOS On getting to my uncle's wife house, I told them I was leaving for Lagos immediately. I refused to be persuaded to stay and I took a taxi to Mile 3 motorpark where I took a taxi for Onitsha. My intention was to stop at Onitsha, see a friend and then proceed to Lagos. At Mile 3 we took off and on getting to Omagwe, at the International Airport Junction, I heard a voice calling me by my native name “NKEM.” I turned around to see if there was a known face in the taxi but there was none. Who could this be? Only my late mother calls me by that name, all others including the spirit world knew me as Emmanuel. While I was still wondering, the voice came again: “NKEM, are you going to betray me again?” I did not recognize the voice but the voice continued asking me: “Are you going to betray me again?” Suddenly I had severe fever. The heat that came out of my body was so high that the other passengers felt it. One of them asked me: “Mr., were you well at-all before traveling?” I told them I was well and that I never had even a headache before leaving Port Harcourt. At Umuakpa in Owerri, I collapsed inside the taxi. The next I knew was that two men, tall and huge, came to take me, one on my left and the other on my right, and they never spoke a word to me. They led me through a very rough road with bottles and metals. As we moved along, these bottles and metals gave cuts and I started crying but these men still did not say a word. We moved on and came out to an express road. It was here one of them spoke and said: “You are a wanted man!” and we continued. We moved on to a very large and long building that looked like a Conference Hall. As soon as we climbed the pavement a voice from inside said: “Take him in!” They took me in and disappeared, leaving me alone. What I saw inside this hall is difficult to explain, but I will try to explain as much as I can. The hall was well decorated and so large and long that one finds it difficult to see the end of it. I walked to the middle and then was able to see the end. At the end was an altar. I saw a moon and stars surrounding the sun. Then I saw a throne and seated on it was a very handsome man with a garment shining like the sun. He said: “Come!” But because of His brightness I could not go. Whenever I tried to move a leg I would fall. I stood up, tried again and fell. Suddenly a moon came out of the throne where He was sitting and moved on the ceiling right up where I stood. Then two hands came out of the moon, held my head, shook me and my physical body pulled off, like pulling off a dress. And the real me stood. The hands folded it as if folding a cloth and dropped it at the corner. The moon then moved back to the throne and then He that sat on it said again: “Come!o THE SPIRITUAL CLEANSING I walked to a point and He stepped out of the throne to me, removed my legs one after another and poured out what was inside them and fixed them back. He did the same with my hands and put them back, in fact all the places the Queen of the Coast kept powers. I wondered in my mind, who can this be and how did He know the spots these things were kept. After this He went back to His throne and asked me to come. As I started walking, certain objects started falling from my body, scales fell from my |
The right answer has been given by tipia,but you have decided in ur heart that the bible was wrong in that regard,so u did not take it. To start with ,it was not a sin, in those days, for a man to marry his sister .Abraham did marry his sister.But in Leviticles 18:9. God stopped them from such marriages. In Gen.46:27 .The children of Jacob that went and sorjourn in Egypt were only 70 people.In Exo.12:37.About 430 yrs latter the population that left Egypt were 600,000 men, aside from women and children and the babies killed in Exodus 1:22 . If only Isaac could have about 1,000,000 descendants ,male ,female and children inclusive in about 500 years,despite that he died at 160 years or so,how many descendants do u think Adam would have,considering that he had many great grand children that lived above 800 years b4 they died. It will not be less than 10,000,000. Cain knew he was going to live long.The spiritual knowledge of the future ,as at then, can not be compared with now. |
Gaggi: Wetin dis dullard dey yarn sefAs much as I believe some of d things u posted,I can say that u too are not different from some of the hypocrites.Why did I say this. A true christian is not expected to be bothered or discouraged about what others are doing,you must carry ur own cross. You have the bible to read and guide you. Jesus told us that "srait (small) is the gate and narrow is the road that leads to life ,few there be that find it". That explains the % u gave,which is the truth.It is not everyone that calls Jesus Lord that will enter into the kingdom of God,but only those that do the will of his Father in heaven. You surprised me with ur reply to someone's post when u called him a "dullard". A spirit filled christian should not abuse ,curse or fight. Your thread is meant to advice us to change not to degenerate to the level of abuse. Thanks. |
Van snickers: Praise be to Allah!!Praise God. Allah is not in our Bible. |
The bible says"there is a way that seemeth right unto a man,but d end thereof are d ways of death".Prov.16:25. Karma says that there is a continual rebirths in human bodies until the person's soul reaches a state of perfection and the person's soul is united with God. It teaches that if bad things happen in one's life,it an outworking of bad karma.And if good things happen to a person,it is an outworking of good karma. Lets assume the above is right.When Cain killed Abel in Gen.4:8, was that as a result of the evil that Abel commited ,that made him to die a sudden death in his brothers hand? Was that the law of Karma? Jesus did not teach reincarnation,he taught resurrection. Gal 6:7-8 says" Be not deceived ;God is not mocked:For whatesoever a man soweth ,that he shall also reap.For he that soweth to his flesh shall of the flesh reap corruption;but he that soweth to d spirit shall of the spirit reap life everlasting". This verses do not teach reincarnation but judgment after death. Heb.9:27 says that a man is destined to die once,after that is judgement. Hebrew verse above negates the doctrine of reincarnation. Ezekiel 18:21 24 says"But if d wicked will turn from all his sins that he hath commited,and keep all my statutes,and do that which is lawful and right,he shall not die.And all his transgressions that he hath commited,they shall not be mentioned unto him;..... But when d righteous turneth away from his righteousness,and committed iniguity,and doeth according to all the abomination that d wicked doeth......All his righteousness that he hath done shall not be mentioned ......in the sin that he hath sinned shall he die". That is the word of God.We dont have to give inference where the exact word of God is self explanatory. The thief at d right hand of Jesus was granted heaven, despite the sins that he had commited. From the law of Karma,one should expect the world to have been inhabited by at least half of those that once lived then died and reincarnated.These ones are expected to have learnt their lessons and have influence in the world's moral standard.But what we have now is moral decay,corruptions on a higher scale as it has never been heard of before,killings and stealings,arm robbery more than it was 30 years ago. In lagos,about 40 years ago, people hadly lock their doors,thieves as at then used to hide from property owners.In most villages,most of the houses were without doors We were told stories that in the villages about 150 years ago,a yam seller does not need to stay with his market,but would use something to indicate the amount ot the yam.And a buyer would buy and put the money there for the owner to see.Even passersby would not touch the money.God will not institute a law that is of no effect. This law of Karma is not mentioned in the bible.It not a biblical teaching in anyway but the idea of the idol worshippers in India. The work of the holy spirit in the life of a christian is to direct us,teach us, caution us ,rebuke us,guide us and protect us. The bible did not say that someone who had been living a holy life for years and commits sin mistakinly,does not have the grace to ask for forgiveness. Such person would make heaven except if he does not ask for forgiveness. Likewise anyone who had been living in sins for decades has the grace of God to ask for forgiveness and be saved.Our God is a mercyful God. He says that he does not delight in d death of a sinner but in the repentance. The reward of a holy person of 30 years of good service to the Lord cannot be compared with the reward of a holy person that got converted last month,where the two made heaven. The devil is aware that we have the grace to ask for forgiveness and has used this against many people.Nobody knows when he will die or what will happen the next one hour. To be saved at the last minute is the grace of God.Watch and pray the bible says ,because nobody knows tomorrow. Jesus told us about the rich man and father Abraham.He did not tell us that the rich man came back as a begger. What is the use of the death of Jesus iif reincarnation or law of Karma will make us petfect in the long run? That is why we should be prayerful and not allow any doctrine that is not biblical to be pushing us arround. The bible is there as our guide. Thanks. |
kramer: Don't worry I'll find the book... I have my methods lolYou are making sense but it is of no use. A normal human being should know that God exists. Anyway you view it,ie if their senses are functioning & their spirit man is not controlled by demons,or spiritually caged,they should know that there is a creator ,with some supernatural powers ,that created d world. The account of Jesus is real ,and a sensible person would have ,at least do little investigation about him and his miracles.The bible always mention the names of Kings,cities,and real names of people's lineage from generation to generation. The bible talks about how God parted the red sea for about 7 hrs and d Israelites escaped from the Egyptians ,and concluded by saying that Pharaoh and the Egyptians perished in the red sea. A sane person or someone seeking the truth would have reasoned from that point that "for a sea to be divided and some people to escape on dry land for hours is not a myth, if the names mentioned actually existed and the nation of Egypt did not dispute that it happened to them. So,they are aware of the fact but have gone too far from God,that they would rather believe the satanic message ,that God does not exist,because it would remove guilt from their hearts.There case is like someone with a problem that drinks alcohol ,thinking it would erase the problem or make him to forget the problem. They know what they are doing. Some are Satanic agents directly from the pit of hell,they will argue with you, as demons do.Demons can talk and can design and use the internet better than we. Some are insane. Having argument with an insane person means the two are insane. Trying to convince a demon that God exist is useless. There is nothing u can do about someone who has decided to choose lie or lie to himself that there is no God,so that he would continue to steal,fornicate, abuse etc because he does not want to repent . I witnessed a scene at mushin in 1999 or so.A thief was caught and was set ablaze at Olosha bus stop,while people were gathered and mourning for that thief as he was been roasted alive,another thief was picking a pocket ( trying to steal money from somebody's pocket) among the crowd that were gathered.He was caught and also burnt to death. This means that even if Obama calls it "mark of the beast 666" directly, they will not mind and would go ahead and receive it.They will tell u "I do not care". So, stop arguing with these categories of people above,because there is no sense u can make as far as they are concerned.Go to hospitals,prison yards and preach,some will accept and some will not.But because they have witness something about life,they are likely to believe you. The love of God that is in you that wants you to share this facts will not depart from your life in the name of Jesus. Remember in Revelation,13:6"And he opened his mouth in blasphemy against God,to blasphem his name,and the his tabernacle,& them that dwell in heaven." So don't be surprised when they call Jesus bad name. I know your intention is to convince many that there are powers that push people into hell fire. But some have people have decided to go to hell and some know they can not escape hell ,like d demons. If u do not stop preaching to them,they will abuse and curse very soon. Thanks. |
I agree with u concerning that,but a person may be qualified and d prayers answered but not received.Daniel 10:12. My questions are these :How do we know that God has not answered ?How can we be sure that it is not some evil powers that are hindering the answers to the prayers? Is is not possible not to recieve answer due to our sins? |
Jesus is the son of the Almighty God that created the heaven and the eatth. |
