There's no need for any preparatory material. The test had no numerical, verbal and abstract reasoning.

Have you done the ODVI?

1. There was and is absolutely nothing temporal about the Old Law of Moses which happens to be the everlasting Constitutional Law of God's Nation of Isreal in the Land of Canaan.

You just love pointless arguments u cannot back . When Jesus came , did he sacrifice animals ? What are you talking about ? Oya keep the law if you can . You said it's not temporal and Jesus didn't fulfil it. If it wasn't temporal then why don't we practice it and why did Jesus have to fulfil it?

Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith gal 3:24

2. Jesus Christ never taught that He was a sacrifice! Jesus Christ is no interpretation to symbolism. He was instead God's New agreement promised by God of Israel to the House of Jacob.

“I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep. John 11:18

You just want to deceive unsuspecting folks. If Jesus didn't teach that he was the sacrifice, then what's the point of his coming? People should be very careful of you. You are very subtle in deception . You have the urge to discredit people with out understanding.

3. By the way, Jesus Christ is famously known to have distanced Himself from the religious leaders of His time, along with their doctrines — Jesus Christ was against Religion. The religion of Christianity that you know today was modeled after the very same Religion that Jesus Christ disavowed; the entirety of what you know as Christianity today was built on a foundation that was laid down by the very Catholic church you abhor. So?

You don't have a point oga madam . I don't understand the reason for quoting Me on this, cuz you're clearly attacking me cuz you think I practice religion and that's very funny cuz you're evidently prejudiced. I don't belong to any faction or denomination. Try someone else

4. Religion, according to Jesus Christ, is antiChrist - Matthew 15 vs 1 - 14 & Mark 7 vs 1 - 13. So, it ain't about casting down some denominations or sects while you lift up others.

Again , I'm not your candidate .

Please read your bible coherently and stick to sound doctrine before trying to discredit people who are trying to pass down the true message of the bible.

Then you don't know what necromancy is.
The word necromancy comes from the greek "nekromanteia," which is a combination of 2 words, first nekros which means dead body, and second manteia which means divination or foretelling the future. To claim catholics and orthodox and all the apostolic churches practice necromancy, you need to show that they are doing divination or trying to foretell the future. Catholics, orthodox and all the apostolic churches do not do that.

However, if you think anyone who talks to those who are alive with God but nolonger on earth are necromancers, then maybe you wish to accuse Jesus of necromancy since he was busy talking to Moses.

That's where you all miss it. JESUS is God and before God there's no dead. He's not the God of the dead. You don't know your scriptures. Any other person in the scripture who tried to contact the dead met a fatal fate.

Also necromancy doesn't just involve predicting the future but it's basically about contacting the dead in order to influence the future or predict it. Praying to Mary so she can Intercede on your behalf in order to be at peace with God and avoid your damnable fate is actually necromancy, or else why would you communicate to the dead through prayer ?

True believers pray to God in the name of Jesus and not to the dead sir. Jesus never said " to approach God , you have to pray through my mother" , rather he said " no man can come to the father except through me ".
Catholics are one of those who are under a strong delusion in the last days as Paul spoke in 2nd thessalonians .

Again , the meaning of necromancy

Ubenedictus:
It always fascinates me how protestants are able to speak so confidently to criticize stuff they know nothing about.

You are so sure that asking mary to join in intercession and using icons ar NOT the christian faith that Jesus and the apostles passed on yet every Christian church that was founded by the apostles and hold the teaching that the apostles delivered to them, whether it is the Greek orthodox church in antioch and Alexandria, the Syriac orthodox church in Jerusalem, The Catholic Church in Rome, Whatever the church that you name that was founded by the apostles all teach, practice and believe that it is right and Christian to have icons in the church, that it is right and Christian to ask mary and the apostles to join us in prayers. ALL OF THEM, not a single one of the historical apostolic churches think different.
In fact the paintings of images in the church and the records of christians asking mary to pray for them is older than the earliest complete copy we have of the new testament.
So when someone whose church began less than 100 years ago by a man who never saw any of the apostles, who never sat under the apostles to hear to fullness of their teaching, who never appeared in their liturgy 2000 years ago, but simply take books that they wrote to churches that they had already taught and then believes he knows more of what the apostles passed on than the very churches they taught that have existed for 2000 years based on some human interpretation, when i see protestants do that, I always say, what kind of arrogance is that

It's hard to read and digest what you've constructed without punctuation.

I'm of no protestant faction , neither do I belog to any christian denomination. Even the practices of pentecostalism, Jehovah witness, Mormon and the rest are dead on arrival. I'm of the simple belief , strictly in Jesus and his finished works. Any other doctrine that was not emphasized by Jesus or his apostles is a doctrine of devils. There are no true apostles today . The 12 and Paul have given us the words of Jesus by their witness and testimony. The prophets have also spoken about Jesus and their words came from God. The only thing we need to do is believe , as Jesus said.

Also, praying to Mary to intercede for you is the practice of necromancy and it's abominable and condemned by Yahuha/Yahweh the mighty God.
The living and the dead have nothing in common and they cannot hear you or know what you're doing , cuz after death is judgment. Shalom.

I can do it even better for less.

Geist:
Lolz people never prayed before Jesus Christ? Or what exactly makes anything outside exactly how Jesus Christ himself prayed wrong?

The whole bible or history before the arrival of Jesus, which Includes the law , taught men and schooled them on how to live a life that pleased God .

This program was a temporal one and a shadow of what is to come , on waiting for the arrival of the one who would then teach men the true and final way that would please God .

The ways Daniel prayed, Abraham or Aaron sacrificed would no longer be regarded as a methodology of approaching God, because the messiah is the one who would teach men what to do, to approach God. This is the whole essence of the bible ; the salvation through Christ .

Christ came and taught us how to pray, he taught that he was the sacrifice , the bread of life and only true way to God . This never invalidated the scriptures but clearly interpreted all the symbolism it portrayed.

Any method you're applying on how to approach God or methods from other sources that Jesus nor the apostles approved of, neither did they instruct, is a doctrine of devils .

The Catholic practice which involves bowing and praying to Mary, or using rosaries as a medium for prayer , my friend , is a foundation of demonic practice as none of the apostles ever did such , and the catholic church home of apostates.


I'm in no way abusing the catholic faith , but it is blasphemous to ever say that the catholic faith was the foundation for the Christian faith that Jesus and his apostles passed on , as the margin in the differences are too wide. Catholism is an alien practice , unknown or untraceable to Christ and true christians.

The first thing you need to know is that depression is a serious sickness. Suicide is one of the symptoms. Go and see a doctor at the psychiatric hospital before killing yourself.

I don’t know any support group in Nigeria but go to this website and talk with someone first before taking a step if you don’t want to go to psychiatric hospital.

https://www.beyondblue.org.au/


Once again, you are sick. It is not your debt that is making you to contemplate suicide. As I am talking to you, my property worth 300 million naira is marked for demolition for the Lagos calabar coastal road in Lekki. The property has everything but they realigned the road and said it is on the ROW. I don’t know whether your debt is up to 300 million but I never skipped a meal cos of that not to talk of suicide. I am not rich. I just learn to live above challenges.

Once again, seek help. It has nothing to do with hell or heaven . It has nothing to do with people you helped or people that refused to help you. It has everything to do with your MENTAL HEALTH. Talk to a professional on

Yours is not a big deal as you'll be richly compensated by the government for the damages. So?

Kobojunkie:
Jesus Christ already condemned those who make signs and wonder their priorities as workers of lawlessness - those who were never of Him to begin with.
That equally means those who seek after these workers of lawlessness also have nothing to do with Jesus Christ.

Funnily.. I cited this scriptural reference on my status today. It's indeed by far , the most scariest and critical scripture for me.

These men who were denied by the Lord are the mighty men we profess and exalt today to be God's generals and servants.

TheAdvocate:
"And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; they shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover."

Mark 16:17-18 KJV

And Where did it say we should seek after signs? If truly you are a believer , these signs shouldn't be a problem for them to manifest . But y'all contemporary believers and pastors be forcing God to do something he has already given the requisite for in the name of 5-12hours marathon prayers , simply because you haven't believed in the true Jesus of the bible. The average contemporary believer can't even pray to God without first blaspheming the Holy ghost by speaking gibberish. It's an eyesore .

Isn't that rebellion ?
How many of the so called professed believers speak with new tongues today order than gibberish? How many of them can truly cast out devils without first blaspheming and commanding the holy spirit? Clearly, I'm yet to find major true believers of the Jesus of the scriptures.

Negroid001:
You're so insecure

He's not Insecure. I disagree.

The truth is , as knowledge increases, things will grow from worse to worst. We are spiraling towards destruction as an age due to corruption. The rate of Marriage failure, mortality , immorality and moral decadence will keep increasing. It's a self destruct construct by man due to the knowledge of Good and evil in our possession.
The invention of social media is for both good and evil . In The days of our fathers, it was not so .

In social media, It's a game of numbers , just like marketing; the more people you advertise to, the more offers you'll get.

A virtuous woman should have one man and a man also for one woman. Social media has made it almost impossible for a woman to be with one man now.

She is mostly enticed with lies and flatteries of lustful men from the virtual world . Hence, she becomes seeker sensitive with an insatiable desire for impossibilities.

Kobojunkie:
In Matthew 7, Jesus Christ condemns those whose focus is on doing signs and wonders as never knowing Him. If he never knew them, even though they claim to do signs and wonders using his name, it means such people are liars and evil.

Truth be told .

You know, I recently had to come out of the word of faith movement and stick to the scriptures , especially the teachings of The Lord and his Apostles... There's a whole lot of false ideologies and misconceptions about the faith , that charismatic and pentecostal apologists are propaging heavily , without realizing the error . I was in awe when I searched and saw the simplicity of the gospel, it isn't as complex as they made me believe for many years .

TheAdvocate:
Just help me & listen for a week & let's talk. The ministry of Jesus is 100% signs & miracles bro. Buy a Bible & read & you will agree with me.😁

You are not Jesus. This is what you people don't understand. Jesus is the saviour .

His ministry also didn't lay emphasis on signs and wonders as the elementary of God's kingdom. Infact, he even said a wicked and adulterous generation seeks after a sign. That is, the more wicked you are, the more you seek after and glorify signs above the word of life and truth .

TheAdvocate:
God is real, healing is real. In 2022, I was diagnosed with cervical spondylosis and related ailments. I couldn't take off my neck collar given to me in the hospital for 2 minutes. I went to church and was prayed for and since September 2022 till date, no pains, no neck collar.
God is a faithful God and I have vowed to serve Him all the days of my life.
Sir, go to You Tube and search for "Commanding the Day Midnight Prayers" by Dr. Paul Enenche.

it starts by 11.30 pm to 12.30 am every day and if you watch for a week and you don't receive your miracle, then there is a problem somewhere. I challenge anyone to do so and we talk about it.

This is pure idolatory and wickedness.
You're not inviting people to come hear the word of life(which the man of God in question doesn't even preach) , but to seek for signs and miracles ... You are an idolater .

Lonestar124:
I'm starting to believe, as a matter of fact there are people with spiritual Grace that you have to contact when there is troubleshooting..be it pastor or anybody..

You could be dealing with a sorcerer or a diviner and not a follower or messanger of Christ. Pls know there's a big difference.

Lonestar124:
The thing is there is my container of goods am expecting from turkey for all for almost seven months, it is has not arrived in the country I based, until yesterday, my sister instruct me to call one of her family pastor to pray for me.

I was little redundant, but I later called him, he told me the goods will arrived on Tuesday next week

He chastised me to be giving my tithes, which I don't do, me I don't believe in all these things as an atheist, but am beginning to change my mind the way I understand God.

Can you believe my agent called me this morning that the goods has just arrived Liberia my Based..

This is a true life story, I can not call this miracle a coincidence as I usually do ..am still surprised it happens the way the man of God proclaim it.. there is spiritual power my people.

Tomorrow I will be giving this testimony in any church in location...our God is Merciful indeed.

Never doubt what God can do with his faithful servants.. enjoy your day my fellow Nairalanders.

When will people learn that miracles do not authenticate a person to be of God?

Eyinju112:
who knows, him fit be boy boy for one reach man house ooo. Perhaps they sent him to buy that nonsense milk. The price over shock am na why he run come here Dey cry. Nonsense and ingredients 😂😂😂

🤔🤔🤔

omo If this is not the truth 😂😂😂

achorladey:
Calculate from Daniel to Revelation and from Revelation back to Genesis. It will still be lies, more lies and manipulations because your religious leaders and liars were calculating based on something that will happen when they are not expecting it to be.

They are calculating what they are not expected to know or expecting it to be in a certain way or date.

Start applying your military intelligence regarding that.

Your GODS saying Jesus will and did returned in 1914 is going against Jesus own statement that he comes when they are not expecting him. 1914 is an expected date already put in place by your GODS. Jesus cannot and didn't return on that date

Cc: ErnestNc

Let them keep calculating. I think that was how they made up the 1914 Coming of Jesus. Jesus has clearly said no man knows the hour, but because they don't follow the words of Jesus they must do otherwise.

Eyinju112:
Thank you for saying exactly what I had in mind. What rubbish!!! The way he broke shame that other guy is a sign that he’s feeling big of himself for buying an industrial milk for his home consumption. Milk that is meant for bakers to use in a single week you buy am go house Dey feed family for 5 months. Your wife go over try sha. When my mates are having fresh milk one husband carry industrial milk come house say make me and children drink for five months. I bind every poverty mindset away in my husband’s life. Amen!!! F**k it.

Imagine. I just dey laff.

I didn't just want to shame him for storing powdered milk for a whole 5 months . He thinks that's what financially bouyant people do, and so we must applaud him for being bouyant enough to afford such .

If you have money, Why buy and store industrial powdered milk and not Condensed milk for lenghty months?

achorladey:
No be today dem start am oooo. They were at one time seriously saying that the GODHEAD is DOGHEAD saying those they who believed in the trinity worship DOGHEADS.


LIke leaders like followers. You should expect nothing less. You can't be in a gathering where all other religious denominations are tagged lie lie Christians. Where most of the believe is tailored towards ensuring that nothing tangible is worth it outside of their religious organization.

Where they believe there are only two organisations in the world

1. Jehovah’s organization...... Watchtower


2. Satan's organisation........ All other organization you can think of from political, religious, industries e.t.c

These people think that GOD was not smart when he chose the early apostles as the only foundation of the church , hence any doctrine that wasn't revealed by the Apostles is non significant, it is tagged an accursed gospel.

There was no Apostle who the Lord graced to write , revealed Jesus to be the arch angel Michael, but rather all attested that he was The begotten son of God, and as well the word of God which was also God who made all things and also came in flesh.

These people came about In 1870 (153yrs ago) with another gospel , variant doctrines that never tallied with the letters and testimonies of the foundational apostles.

They refused to preach faith in Christ, because they don't know him or know what the faith is about . But instead, they made it their life's mission to spread heresies, fables and lies to undiscerning folks that were never conveyed by the vocal cords of Jesus and his Apostles.

Where did these people come from?

Maxindhouse, janosky and Cornelboy

Where did you all come from?

MaxInDHouse:
Speak for your DEAD god and Church we have the likes of apostles in our midst today!

If you don't have their kind in your midst then what is the essence of worshiping?

They're the holy ones that faithful men and women gathered together to be taught by them.

So if you don't have their kind then you have nothing to do with Christ Jesus because there must always be those serving as apostles in the midst of Jesus' disciples! Ephesians 4:11

May God forgive you for calling the Lord Jesus a Dead God. It's evident your were only trained by your leaders to be offensive instead of spreading love, it shows the God u serve.

Nice2023:

Whatever u think,is ur thoughts. U have not bought one how then do u think it is for industrial use.

Dano milk in bag is the same Dano milk in refill. I have bought them all in bags including Lactorich.

Finally,keep ur opinion to yourself and stop criticising what u can't afford.

You appear to be unnecessarily arrogant. You must be so little minded to think that buying a 25kg size bag of milk is a huge achievement which puts you on a pedestal above everyone else here on this platform.

I wonder, to whose benefit and of what significance is this post, if not to inflate your already low self esteem and ego which you perceive to be attacked by a mere inquisition. There's really no point of posting such here on a public forum if you're so overly sensitive to scrutiny and void of emotional intelligence.

Janosky:
Yes.
Jesus Christ & the holy scriptures recognise JEHOVAH God is Lord superior to Jesus,Acts 2:36 & Matthew 11:25.

1 Corinthians 8:6 & Ephesians 4:6 God his Father (meaning Senior) is Creator of ALL things.
@ Daniel 10:13 & Daniel 12:1,is Michael the saviour of JEHOVAH'S people?
Yes of course!

He is the Saviour of the world of God's people, 2 Thessalonians 1:8-9 is not rocket science.



Is 1 Corinthians 8:5-6 in your Bible?
Did your own Bible recognise spirits (angels) and men as Lord?
Yes of course!
ALL other Lords (men & spirits) have the same Father (meaning Senior), JEHOVAH the Lord of heaven and earth superior to them. Ephesians 4:6 & Matthew 11:25.

Oga don't DECEIVE YOURSELF.

It's sad that God has marked you for Damnation.

MaxInDHouse:
Funny churchgoer!

You carry book for head but practical application for the benefit of neighbours is not there yet you want to claim you're a disciple of Christ.

Fools!



So if all you have is what is written in a book then you're not better than a professor who has nothing to show for all his learnings! James 2:18-26

Go and call all your faithless friends.

Max is here!

You are working for the devil and you are proud.

Apparently the man of sin lives in you, to think that the doctrine of the bible is of less potency compared to your extra biblical activities and doctrine. You are a blatant shame to Christianity.

Maxindhouse

So are you seeing those apostles today in your neighbourhood?

There are no other apostles like the foundational ones. We don't see them but was was most important was their testimony and they were written for our edification , so we must continue in the apostolic doctrine and as well spread them.

[b]The one and only evidence that Jesus who is called CHRIST is truly the Prince of Peace is the activities of His disciples (Witnesses) throughout the world today!

[b]So if you can't present any group [/b]PRACTICING what Jesus taught as evidence that individuals from different geographical locations on this planet have subjected themselves to his orders as commanded in the Bible then Jesus is just a MYTH!

Excuse me , the church is the only group known by Christ, not a group, cult or faction of people who have their own doctrine separate from what Christ taught.

Your faction happen to teach what Christ and the apostles never taught, even as far as denying that the father , the son and the spirit are one.

U also made mention of Jews that are JWs.. There were also Jews who believed in Jesus Christ , but God's plan is for all Israel to be saved and they will at the end. JW can't do a better job than what the apostles have done.

Infact the faith will begin to dwindle until there's almost nothiñg like true Christian faith, Even Jesus wondered if he would find faith when he returned.

MaxInDHouse:
Guy, what we have today is far greater than what all the apostles put together wrote in that book about Jesus of Nazareth.
The first century Jewish disciples of Jesus only saw few of the fulfilment of prophecies about the Christ but we have the greatest evidence today.

I just needed to see this nonsense to further conclude that you're indeed an antichrist .

The 12 apostles , including John the revelator wrote the last piece of God's word and sealed it. There's no testimony that is greater than theirs because they were the foundation of the Church and their names will be in the pillars of the God's kingdom. When did Jehova witness come about? You mean after 2,000 yrs God would adulterate his words ?

Are you not seeing that you are among the false prophets and teachers Christ prophesied about?

Achorladey come and see nonsense

Which chapter & verses of the holy scriptures did any of JEHOVAH'S CHOSEN SERVANTS authenticate your point of view in the other thread you opened?

https://www.nairaland.com/7704280/else-experience


You have no moral authority to ridicule JWs beliefs when you can't tell this forum which chapter and verse of your own Bible where any Servant of JEHOVAH authenticated your claim in that thread:
https://www.nairaland.com/7704280/else-experience

Read carefully :

1 Thessalonians 4:16 KJV
For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:

Note that this Lord doesn't only use the voice of an angel, but also he has the trump of God.

Now tell me, in whose name did Michael rebuke Satan in the verse below? Because we know there's only one Lord and that is Jesus Christ.

Jude 1:9 KJV
Yet Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil he disputed about the body of Moses, durst not bring against him a railing accusation, but said, The Lord rebuke thee

There's one Lord and one God .
Do you know that calling Michael the christ actually means he is Lord creator of all things and saviour of the world?

How does that sound to your hear if you're not an enemy of God? It's only Satan that would delegate Lordship to an angel, because Satan seeks to be Lord.

MaxInDHouse:
Go and prove to a Jew that Jesus is the Christ first before coming to argue about 1914.

The name written in the scriptures is Emmanuel so when anyone say Jesus is the Christ what evidence do you have?

The Jews have the picture of a different messiah In their head. They typified the messiah to be a warrior kind because all the past messiah's from Moses to the judges and David were all Warriors and liberators from their captivity. If the foundational Apostle's testimony , Paul and Peter's couldn't convert and convince the Jews, is it mine that would do the Job?

We know the true Christ and his mission. It's not the same Christ that JW speak of. The JW speaks of another Jesus. Your Christ is an angel and mine is the son of God whose name is the Word, HE created all things even angels and principalities which includes Michael and his angels.

Talk about your false and heretical sayings of a Jesus that came in 1914, When it was clearly written that the time and hour isn't known, but yet it seems your founders have a direct contact of this Jesus that the body of Christ doesn't have at large.


JWs have a bible only peculiar to them . You refused to know only Christ crucified alone which is the true faith, but instead choose to spread fables and doctrines of devils whose aim is to cause division. True believers and christians only speak of Christ crucified alone, but You JWs will rather tell us about how Michael is the Christ and how Jesus came in 1914 and so many hogwash...

My experience has no scriptural backing , but it doesn't mean it wasn't true.

Secondly, My spiritual experience isn't above scriptures, therefore it doesn't fit in context of Christian doctrine or the faith. I won't deny this.

But, I'm not a JW who perpetually imposes their false and unscriptural beliefs on the minds of innocent people. I have the authority to defend the Faith as long as it doesn't align with scriptures.

You want me to shut my mouth against evil just as Satan would expect. Can't you see that Satan is speaking through you sir?

achorladey:
?

I have repeatedly asked them

Who promised them reward in 1914?

Who delayed their reward in 1914?


Obviously no Bible verse can be used to respond to that question. In reality they were all promises of man starting with Russell down to their present GODS

No JW member has been able to answer these questions concerning the controversial 1914.

When you ask them to provide answers, they become terribly confused , as some would feign deafness just to evade being scrutinised. Others may try to twist scriptures so they can come up with another gibberish ...

It could also be true and might have been a Jesus Apostle Paul or Peter doesn't know about .

It's the likes of Cornelboy n Maxindhouse going from house to house to teach people these heretical doctrines.

tctrills:
Oga there is no unrest. You touched nothing. You are just like your fake prophet, another lying hypocrite.
And you are not a believer of Jesus Christ you are a believer of your fake prophet.

I'm sorry if I hurt you or made you cry fowl in anyway. It was not my intention.

He's not my prophet , neither am I a follower of his predictions or teachings. I don't follow any man of God but Jesus.
I'm sure you do follow several men of God and worship their teachings, as well as sitting inside their sepulchres where they minister death unto the deluded and wicked congregation that seek for signs.

tctrills:
Lol you are a hypocrite. What is your yardstick for calling me evil?
He is fake because his teachings and attitude are not in line with the scriptures.

The unrest you feel right now is because I touched a nerve without even calling you evil , but knowing that your're guilty of evil imaginations , hence the name callings and all. You're not a believer. And I doubt if you warn people about the imminent judgment of God and his salvation through the Christ, but instead you're one of those sooth sayers that pronounce peace upon people when there is a great condemnation upon them.

You should remove the mote in your eyes before removing the one in your brother's eyes. Beware .
