Many Muslim scholars already do not regard this book as "authentic" writings or "reliable". I will post the link to the text below. To those who have not read it, let them read it and decide for themselves. Have you heard of the Didache? is not in the bible. Yet, according to scholars this is one of the earlier Christian writings. Christians, only want to accept what is already in their western Bible. But when told about the Ethiopian Bible, they have issues. I guarantee you that if those same books were coming from the Vatican they will accept them. I'm of the opinion that the reader should read the text first and come to an informed decision that way. As oppose to some critic(s) discarding it as unreliable/false. I mean, they still don't know who wrote Hebrews and yet it found its way to the Bible. Anyhow, here is the link: http://www.sacred-texts.com/isl/gbar/ |
rezzy: If the word is God and Jesus is the word, then Jesus is God.Then what makes the Father of both? |
PAGAN 9JA:No, I feel you man. Trust me, it's happened to me. I did some detective work and found out. There is always that "feeling" when you know something it's just not right but you can't put your finger on it. Your right thou, if you dig in too deep you might uncover things you don't want to find out. But Yo' on the real man. I rather know. Ha ha ha ha... Give thanks. |
chukkynwob: The way we view woman is wrong...I agree with you. Both made a in my opinion a transgression against their marital obligation... But I agree with you. The man is a fault as well because it takes two to tango. BUT The woman reserves the right to say NO and inform her husband that his friend try to come on to her. Or maybe she came on to him. Admittedly by the poster, it was him who repeatedly stopped it from moving forward. Don't get me wrong. I think the friend who did this is also wrong, but the third party will not know his wife is ...you know... And his friend is a ...you know... Unless someone comes forward. My concern is about the husband who is in the dark here. |
Pastor Olu T: AtheistsBut Pastor Olu, there are many devoted Christians with I assume good heart and enormous faith who have lost limbs and such. Yet, no limbs growing for them. These are Christians mind you, not Atheist. |
So, if you give your pastor your first fruits of your possessions, then does that make him your Lord? If he is The Most High God then, bring him here so he can sensibly answer all the questions that they ask about him in this forum. If he is not the Father, then you are giving your first fruits of all your possessions to the wrong person. I mean, this is just problems anyway you look at it. |
baynix: But he is the Lord??Yes. Lord is a title. They have Lords in England today. |
PAGAN 9JA:Is the Nigerian religion Yoruba? I've been meaning to read their religious texts, where can I find them? Thanks in advance |
Here we go again. No. He never said "I'm God" |
PAGAN 9JA:I understand. |
Not yet. I have not seen the Jewish God or any other God (out of all the Gods out there) for that matter perform such acts. |
PAGAN 9JA:How is His Imperial Majesty a common slave to Nigerians? Can you explain? |

italo: Okay, sorry sir. Don't grow up. Keep acting like a kid.No point in growing old to grow ignorant like you. Become a kid like me and learn something. |
I don't know if you leave in this world man? Have you seen all the poverty around? Why is your God not helping? |
Why are the Christians trippin' ? If can afford it then what is the problem? I mean, the man runs a succeful business! |
italo: Then, at least you can take advice from me. I told you I don't take advice from idiots or fanatics. They will lead me astray. So forget it. You don't know anything about my life. Stop being a hypocrite and passing judgement. Besides, I'm not here to discuss my way or yours. I posted a question and you attacked me without giving any meaningful answer to the question. But what did I expect? That is what fanatics do! and Idiots refuse to correct their fanatics way!!! It's a vicious cycle bro. |
Pastor Olu T: Yes i get you so well, but what you should understand is that the defining factor is Jesus. Jesus is the gospel and salvation for the bible says there is no other name given unto to us by which we can be saved except the name Jesus.Thank you. for the bible says there is no other name given unto to us by which we can be saved except the name Jesus. Yes, the bible also said to stone to death homosexuals, adulterers and sons who disrespect their parents! The question follows: What happened to the people who were around before Jesus? How are they saved if they did not know a Jesus nor had any idea about a Jesus? When you accepted Jesus, Why you did not turn Jew? Now concerning the God we serve? Heavens only recognizes two kinds of people and not religion, those that have accepted Jesus as their Lord and savior and have a relationship with Him and those that have not. Whatever religion anyone belongs to do not change anything because God has revealed to us all His perfect will, so it is either we accept it or reject it, though there are consequences attached to our choices. The question follows again: What happened to the people who were around before Jesus? How are they saved if they did not know a Jesus nor had any idea about a Jesus? You do know that millions of people have died in the last 200 years that never heard of Jesus? They had no choice. So what are the consequences for them? Do they get to go directly to a heaven because they had no choice or do they go to a hell? Though i am blunt and its like i am not sensitive, sometimes i wish things are not just as straight forward like that for there are good people in this other believes that are sincere, but the truth is that God has revealed His way of salvation and our feelings can change nothing. How come Jesus who came to give life for ever more missed so many people that were dead before he came on the scene. How come God did not reveal "his" way of salvation to them? Does this not make Paul a liar, who said ..."who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth..." |
Pastor Olu T: Sorry if i am little harsh, and don't call me an hypocrites or beingNo Problem. Have you read the Quran? If you did, you will noticed similarities. If you are a pastor, specially in Nigeria you should know that Islam is a descendant of Judaism. Another words, is a later version of Judaism (perhaps with some cultural practices of the time). In fact, stories in the Quran are found in earlier manuscripts which Christian reject as agnostics writings. But they were certainly around before the Quran came around. This is a fact. But don't trust me on this. If you have time, look it up. So, with this in mind, you should know that most of the precepts of the so called old testament are also found in the Quran, this is why the Muslim say that the Quran confirms the bible and the bible has been tampered with. Have you asked yourself why the Quran would confirm a book before it? That's right, because stuff that's in it is also in the book before it. Perhaps not exactly word for word or verbatim, but the the idea is similar of the same in some instances. What do I believe? I believe in the father. The one in whom Jesus talked about in the sermon in the mount. If you are indeed a pastor, you have read this many times. If you read carefully, you will see that he did not address color, creed, religion or any of that. He was dealing with men heart, the soul/spirit. The God I serve, I know. Is the God of Justice, Love, Wisdom. You can only know him if you have a pure heart. The father of the Christ. Yes!!! the one pure in heart that never read a bible in his life. Me and him have the same God. "Blessed are the pure in heart, For they shall see God." My question to you is this: Do you believe that only a so called Christian is pure in heart? Thanks in advance. Give thanks! |
The answer is simple: It does not make money. There! |
Pastor Olu T: You obviously don't know what you believe?;(If you do know what I believe then tell me. If you do not know then stop being a hypocrite and stop passing judgements. |
This is so sad. When asked if a jet was necessary, he play on the weak in wisdom by saying that how can he be efficient in overseeing the other churches. How come these intellectuals Christians don't tell him that these other churches already have pastors and that he does not have to travel there in a jet to oversee anything. Yo' we will continue to keep truth as a burning fire! |
[b][/b][color=#990000][/color] annyplenty: The Bible calls it 'ánother gospel' galatian 1:6-9. This generation calls it 'gospel of prosperity', 'gospel of once saved, always saved', 'gospel of liberty to do what we want', ' gospel of God is not concerned with what you do with your body but your heart', 'gospel of there are many saviours' e.t.c.. However, The Bible says whoever preaches it is accursed.However, The Bible says whoever preaches it is accursed. This is one of the causes of problems for many 'so-called-believers' in Nigeria. The Bible also says to stone homosexual and adulturers and disrespectful children to death. Yes, the "so called believers" are not following the bible! In fact it was Paul who wrote galatians (according to bible scholars). What's in the bible was not the only gospel around at the time. What are your thought on that? |
obadiah777: HE IS THE FIRSTBORN OF ALL CREATION ? EASILY EXPLAINED. >>>> JOHN 1 VS 1 In the beginning was the Word >>>> SO THE WORD IS THE FIRSTBORN OF ALL CREATION. AND THE WORD BECAME >>> JOHN 1 VS 14 The Word became flesh <<< AND THE FLESH WAS CHRIST. PUTTING IT ALL TOGETHER, CHRIST IS THE FIRSTBORN OF ALL CREATIONAnything eternal CANNOT be a firstborn of any creation. By it's very definition, eternal is ever existing. I mean, anything created is a creation of someone or something else. The word became flesh but the word was not "The God" the word was "Godly" You can do research on John 1:1 if you like. I'm no Greek scholar to give anyone lessons. |
obadiah777: THE WORDTHE ALMIGHTY KJV BRUV. THE SHARPEST TWO EDGED SWORD IN THE BUSINESS. CAN CUT THROUGH GRANITE ( HEBREWS 4 VS 12 )There is nothing Almighty about KJV (in my opinion). It's just a a translation/compilation of books. In fact this compilation of books you call Almighty KJV is continually being revised. There are lots of verses that are in your Almighty KJV but if you look at the foot note those verses are omitted. Further more, the current KJV does not include the Apocrypha, books that were in the 1611 bible. When Hebrews 4:12 was written the KJV was not even compiled yet. So, the Almighty KJV was not Almighty then? It's just problems all the way. |
I think so. Different understanding of the same God perhaps. |
italo: That is what I have to say. I don't take advice from these type of people: Idiots and fanatics. |
greatgenius: 1. The man jesus didn't ask you to follow him-,as in worship his every move like Christians do- he only sought to have you follow his words. Follow his examples. " Ye are gods. Sons and daughters of the creator, he said , anything I can do you can as well. But if you don't and can't believe this fact or in yourselves/abilities as gods who can by faith do and have anything ,then follow me- words/deeds/example etc- .. and Through me, by following my example ,words etc you will get to heaven/self actualization .. follow my example and you will be saved- from sin/ignorance .. follow me and you will find peace- and end the suffering etc etc.. Deep reasoning still...I will read over again. |
"Every one that is of the truth heareth my voice." Remember, the voice of the Christ is that of the father. Jesus was addressing the spirit of those men. Just as the spirit of of John was that of Elijah. Spirits cannot manifest without a flesh in this world. The Christ is a spirit of the father, "the son of his love" that came into the world as any other man. His name in this world was Jesus/Yahosua, born in Bethlehem, some people say he is God and so on...you know the story. But don't take my words for it. Check out what Jesus said: John 18:36 "...Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world: if my kingdom were of this world, then would my servants fight, that I should not be delivered to the Jews: but now is my kingdom not from hence..." Hope this helps. |
obadiah777: HMM HMM HMMM THAT WAS A HOT VERSE. STRAIGHT TO THE POINT. THE 1 TIMOTHY 3 VS 16.It was, I had to comment. Can you please check out my comment on it. Thanks. |
PastelChic: ..YES, THE LORD JESUS CHRIST IS GOD ALMIGHTY...Who else can claim to be THE ALPHA AND OMEGA, I AM?...Remember Jesus Christ the same Yesterday, Today and Forevermore.. + check out 1 Timothy 3 vs 16.Huh, come again... John 12:49-50 For I have not spoken on My own authority; but the Father who sent Me gave Me a command, what I should say and what I should speak. 50 And I know that His command is everlasting life. Therefore, whatever I speak, just as the Father has told Me, so I speak.” Can you explain what you mentioned in light of what Jesus himself said. Not Paul or Peter, or anyone else. What Jesus the Christ said. check out 1 Timothy 3 vs 16 I did, "God" is not in the original manuscripts. But I'm not a scholar and please don't take my word for it, please look it up. If you read the NKJV you will find an "e" next to God, which indicates the "it reads who" Notice it reads, "who" NOT "God" But like I said, please don't take my word for it. Thanks in advance. |
obadiah777: ON A SIDE NOTE SOMETHING JUST JUMPED AT ME HMMM COMBINING THE TWO DOES THAT MEAN CHRIST WAS GOD Colossians 1:13 "...He has delivered us from the power of darkness and conveyed us into the kingdom of the Son of His love,..." Colossians 1:15 "...He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation..." God, the first born of all creation? Can you explain? Thanks in advance. |
When you accept Him you received a new kind of life which is eternal. The truth is that the coming of Jesus changes so many things, though not change per se but a fulfillment of all that have been said in the books before.
