YUSUFALI: Those who believe (in the Qur'an), and those who follow the Jewish (scriptures), and the Christians and the Sabians,- any who believe in Allah and the Last Day, and work righteousness, shall have their reward with their Lord; on them shall be no fear, nor shall they grieve.

002.136
YUSUFALI: Say (O Muslims): We believe in Allah and that which is revealed unto us and that which was revealed unto Abraham, and Ishmael, and Isaac, and Jacob, and the tribes, and that which Moses and Jesus received, and that which the prophets received from their Lord. We make no distinction between any of them, and unto Him we have surrendered

Many Muslims are self-opinionated and insincere in their attitude towards anything outside their religion. They are willing to study books that point out alleged contradictions or errors in the Bible but they shut their minds and eyes from books and explanations from Christians that give answers and clarifications to their confusions contrary to the teaching of Quran.

On most occasions, their problem lies in their unwillingness to know the truth. At times they twist Bible verses that they don’t understand to suit their beliefs but they ignore the clear passages that contradict their belief and call them corrupted verses.

Was the prophet Jonah dead when he was inside the belly of the whale for three days and three nights??

If he was dead inside the belly of the whale then Jesus  was also dead inside the belly of the earth for three days and three nights.

But if Jonah was not dead indide the belly of the whale then Jesus was not dead inside the belly of the earth.

Next question

When Jonah was swallowed by the whale was he dead or alive?

If he was dead then Jesus when he was brought down from the cross was also dead.

But if Jonah was alive when he was swallowed by the whale then Jesus was alive when he was brought down from the cross

To answer your question firstly,  Bro do you know what a  met·a·phor  is ?


1.  implicit comparison: the use to describe somebody or something of a word or phrase that is not meant literally but by means of a vivid comparison expresses something about him, her, or it, e.g. saying that somebody is a snake
2.  figurative language: all language that involves figures of speech or symbolism and does not literally represent real things
3.  symbol: one thing used or considered to represent another

NB: You will never ever understand the Holy Bible if u have a bias mind towards it. Your Knowledge & understanding has a limit. [/size]

@ Alam-Tara and Olabowale

Salam Bros l know both of you are the Ahmad Deedat of Naija . I want both of you to honestly interpret the following verses for me and other nairalanders:

1) Sura 2: 53 " And when We gave Moses the Book and the Discrimination that you might walk aright"

2) Sura 2: 62 "Surely those who believe, and those who are Jews, and the Christians, and the Sabians, whoever believes in Allah and the Last Days and does good, they have their reward with thier Lord, and there is no fear for them, nor shall they grieve"

3) Sura 10:94 "If you were in doubt as to what We have revealed unto thee (Alam-Tara & Olabowale), then ask those who have been reading the Book (Holy Bible) e.g Georgecso, Bindex, Ndipe etc before thee (Alam -Tara & Olabowale): The truth hath indeed come to thee from thy Lord: So be in no wise of those in doubts"


Please answer the following questions:

1) Explain what the word " We" please to the best of your knowledge because l know it has limit.
2) Explain why Prophet Muhammad wrote the Word "Christians" in that verse

I have more verses if both of you can honestly answer those questions above.

@ Alam Tara

Please Bro kindly bear in mind that am not trying to ague here but l'm telling you facts/events that took place over 2000years ago and not 1430yrs ago ( Your Prophet witnessed and saw some of these facts because he was a trader). I have seen not just the seen the light but have witnessed the true light of God through Jesus Christ. Thank God you have heard about Christ and l have read in detail about prophet muhammad (pbuh) too . I am sure that there are several questions you may like to ask your mullah abt Islam but u may be afraid so as not be accused of blasphemy. Please kindly read this bro:


[size=13pt]His body really did die. The Roman soldiers made sure of that. They were experts at killing people.
Jesus Christ's physical body was 100-percent human, not just part human. Our bodies can die, and so could his. When we die, our physical body dies, but our soul and spirit remain. They are eternal; they never die. The same is true of Jesus Christ. His physical body died, but his inner self is eternal and did not die.

Is Jesus alive today?

Yes, he is. Thousands of people saw him alive again. The Bible is very clear; Jesus Christ's physical body is no longer dead. He is alive today. The Bible records 11 times when people saw him.

How can this be?

Jesus is more than a man. Although he is 100-percent human, he is also 100% God, the Creator of the universe. He is all-powerful. Although evil men killed his physical body, he easily had the power to restore life to his body again.
When his body came alive, he walked out of his tomb, completely healthy and strong.
As you can imagine, when this happened in the darkness, it really frightened the Roman soldiers who were guarding his tomb to keep people away. They were surprised and terrified! It was suddenly very obvious that Jesus was not merely a man. He is God, with power over life and death.

The people of Jerusalem certainly should have known this already. Jesus had proved it many times before. He raised many people from the dead. One was a young girl. Another was a man who had been dead and buried for days.
Here's something else that is wonderful. Did you know that the moment that Jesus Christ's physical body died, he brought many dead people to life in the city of Jerusalem? It's true! The people were alive and healthy again. Many people saw them in the streets and homes of that great city (Matthew 27:52-53), and were so glad to see them again. These were not ghosts (there are no such things). These were living, breathing people, seen by many. They had been dead, some perhaps for years, and now they were alive because of Jesus' great power![1]



What about your death or the death of someone you love?

Here is a fact that is even more amazing! Everyone who dies and is a true follower of Jesus Christ will experience this same, awesome, life-giving power. Jesus will give them their body back again—alive, heathy and strong—a glorious body. Won't that be wonderful! Millions and perhaps billions of people will be made alive again. Mothers and fathers, brothers and sisters, grandparents—every person that is a true follower of Jesus will be alive again—forever.
For all of us who are Christians, death is not permanent. When our loved ones in Christ die, we can know for certain that we will see them alive again.
You can be one of those people! If you haven't already done so. Admit that you are a sinner that has broken the Law and deserves punishment and is lost without him. Accept his free gift of salvation and life. Become a faithful follower of Jesus Christ, the Lord and Giver of Life.

Bro God is Mystery and our finite mind can never understand the exact nature of God. He is the Alpha & the omega, and God came to this earth and dwell amongst us. Remember the story of Mariam in the Quran , how God revealed , u know the rest bro[/size]

@ Alam Tara

JESUS NEVER DIED ON THE CROSS. HE WAS NEVER BURIED. AND HE NEVER ROSE FROM THE DEAD

1) Do u know what death is?
2) Do u know what happen when animals like dog, goat, donkey dies?
3) Do u really know what happen when Human beign dies?
4)When a human beign dies, what happen to the (1)body, (2) soul and the (3)spirit here on earth and afterlife?

we all believe in judgement day right? Then where are we going to get the New Body to use on that day since our old body had been buried here on earth?

Please Alam Tara kindly answer these questions

@ alam- tara

As Jonas was three days and three nights in the belly of the whale , .

You are the funniest mammal l have ever come across. Look u were not in the belly of the shark with Jonah. I sorry Bro it seems your English is impaired ( Don't take it as an insult pls)

Please Answer these questions:-
1 - How did Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) died ? ( I want a reference from the Quran)
2 - How sure are u that he is in Aljana? ( I want a reference from the Quran)

I just want you to know ok pls don't take offence.

[size=14pt]@ Olabowale

I am a muslim man. My heart is settled in it. I am a fisher of men and women of good believing hearts. Three god persons or personalities, is bold face lie. There is only One singular God, Lord of the world, Who Ccreated everything. He is the One everyone and everthing should worship. Not Jesus, not anything or anyone else!

You dare not renouce/leave your faith bro 'coz u know the consequences. Your head might be severed/cut off for renoucing Islam. Is that how u understood God? Besides you have shown that you don't have a good knowledge of how u were created.

Answer these simple question pls Olabowale ( I respect Islam but it seems u don't have indepth knowledge about it)
1 - Do Animals have Soul/Mind/Spirit?
2- Do Human Beigns have Soul/Spirit ( I know u the Body exist abi?)
3- What would you think of God that created all these things, Animal, Human etc ( Remember our minds are finite and its only the simple mind that can comprehend it)

Its not 3 Gods as some Mullahs have thought you.  Bro u or your mullahs cannot tell that u have the ticket to Aljanah ( I am 100% sure). Any Religion that tells u that its only ur good deeds that can take u there is a BIG LIAR. REMEMBER WHAT HAPPENED TO ADAM & EVE? God sent them out of Eden because of DISOBEDIENCE. Now what would u now say about the kind of SIN people commit these days? IF YOUR GOOD DEEDS WILL TAKE US TO HEAVEN (AS CLAIMED IN SOME OF UR TEACHINGS) , THEN WHO NOW TAKE CARE OF THE BAD ONES( MURDER, FORNICATION, ADULTERY, HATERED, ETC )? CAN U PAY OR LABOUR TO WRITE OFF THOSE DEBTS (SINS) ?

As l said earlier its a matter of Choice. God has given us choice. Thank God for God (permit my language) that He is not a dictator like  Stalin, Adolf Hitler, Mobutu etc. Take sometime to question your faith Bro but at ur own risk. [/size]

Please could someone help explain the step-by-step procedure of creating a recovery disk? What is/are the importance of creating a RECOVERY DISK? Thank you Guys

Please l need Clean Golf 3 or Toyota Carina II full option and at affordable price. Can anyone refer me to a website where l could see more the prices of these cars?

@OLAADEGBU
I appreciate your comments bro and l just hope people will open their hearts for once and see the light

@ KunleOshob
I don't mean to contradict myself bro but it clearly shows that many believers don't read Bible. The word apple was never mentioned " But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die. And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die: For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.
¶ And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat" . Some of us only adhere to our faith mentally.

@ Olabowale

I don't know if you did comprehend what was written on that site. I don't know your faith and the dinomination your adhere to. But the truth is bitter and its only a simple mind that can comprehend it. Whatever you have said or think is your candid opinion and l respect that. l am not a judge bro but the truth must be told and the good thing is that we have choices. Its left for our Conscience bro.

Rebuilding the Temple
The New Temple and the Second Coming: The Prophecy That Points to Christ's Return in Your Generation
By Grant R. Jeffrey, Ph.D.

Jewish authorities are making preparations to rebuild the Temple in Jerusalem. They have recovered lost artifacts from the ancient Temple and have recreated sacred vessels used in worship. The new Sanhedrin, reconvened in Israel, is training Levite priests to reinstitute animal sacrifice. Temple worship and sacrifice are prophesied events that will set the stage for Christ's return. Prophecy expert Grant R. Jeffrey has uncovered not only the prophecies, but also an array of archaeological finds and discoveries from the ancient city hidden beneath Jerusalem. His research leads to a stunning conclusion: the generation alive today will witness the Second Coming. In Jeffrey's new book, readers will examine little-known end-times mysteries, including:
The search for lost Temple treasures
The discovery of underground Jerusalem
The process of recreating sacred Temple vessels
Unexpected clues revealed in the Copper Scroll and the Ezekiel Tablets
The latest plans for rebuilding the Temple
The Temple and the Second Coming shows readers how the rebuilding of the Temple will prepare the way for Christ to return-in our generation.The Countdown to Christ's Return Watchman, what of the night?
Watchman, what of the night?
The watchman said, The morning cometh, and also the night: if ye will enquire, enquire ye: return, come. Isaiah 21:11-12 Almost two thousand years ago, after nearly two years of terrible siege, the brutally efficient legions of Rome destroyed Jerusalem and burned the Temple to the ground. Led by General Titus, the son of Emperor Vespasian, the Roman army completed its mission of destruction on the ninth day of Av (August) in AD 70. The glorious Temple, built by King Herod, was the second of the sacred Temples to stand on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem. The First Temple had been built by King Solomon around 1000 BC and was destroyed by the Babylonians in 586 BC. The Second Temple, built initially by the Jews after their return to Jerusalem in 536 BC following the Babylonian captivity and then expanded by Herod in the first century, remains in ruins today. However, exciting developments are taking place in Israel that will result in a Third Temple being built on the ancient foundations that Solomon put in place more than three thousand years ago. You and I are part of the generation that will live to see a Temple of God once again stand in Jerusalem, the spiritual crossroads of the world. The rebuilding of the Temple holds profound prophetic significance, equal to the appearance of the Antichrist or the forming of the pagan armies to invade Israel in the coming War of Gog and Magog. While many students of biblical prophecy have debated the role that will be played by the Third Temple in end-times developments, the Scriptures make it clear that just before Christ returns, the Third Temple of God must stand again on the original location on the Temple Mount. Preparations to rebuild the Temple have progressed on several fronts, with plans already in place that go into far greater detail than most people are aware of. The Temple project is yet another major prophetic signpost on the time line leading to the final conflict of the battle of Armageddon and the establishment of the kingdom of God. No less a prophet than Jesus Christ made it clear that the generation that witnessed the return of the Jews to the Promised Land would live to see Him return to earth. The modern State of Israel was born in 1948, which means that you and I are part of the last-days generation (see Matthew 24:32-34). However, the Temple must once again occupy its place on the Temple Mount before the major prophesied events of the last days can take place. Many scholars have questioned whether the Temple will ever be rebuilt because of the immense practical, religious, and political obstacles that stand in the way. Mosques, shrines, and other Muslim holy sites occupy the Temple Mount, a thirty-five acre site that is under the administrative control of Arab authorities. Since the Six-Day War in 1967, Israel has controlled the entire city of Jerusalem, including the Temple Mount. However, Israel allows the Supreme Muslim Religious Council (the Waqf ) to control religious activities and to police (without firearms) all activities on the Temple Mount. This area is the location of the Dome of the Rock and the Al-Aqsa Mosque. Religious Jews do not worship in the area of the Dome of the Rock because the chief rabbis warn they might inadvertently trespass on the site of the ancient Holy of Holies. Muslim control of the Temple Mount fulfills the prophecy of Luke 21:24, that "Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled." In addition to the political and religious tensions that stand in the way of rebuilding the Temple, a longstanding and seemingly unsolvable dilemma from within Judaism has presented a major obstacle. The Jews cannot rebuild the Temple or resume worship in the Temple unless the long-dormant Sanhedrin Court, the highest body of Jewish lawmakers, is reconvened. This is necessary in order to reestablish the Levitical priesthood. The Sanhedrin is the only religious body authorized to determine the correct location of the Temple, to reinstitute the ancient rituals, and to oversee the many details related to Temple ritual and worship. One of Jesus' prophecies indicates that the Sanhedrin will indeed be fulfilling its duties in the last days. Christ warned His disciples about the coming persecution in Jerusalem during the Tribulation. He told them to pray that their flight from the city would not be "on the sabbath day" (Matthew 24:20). The reason for this is the commandment against performing work on the sabbath (see Exodus 20:8-10). The ancient Sanhedrin had determined that any travel on the sabbath that exceeded one thousand paces was considered work. However, if an invasion force should attack on the sabbath and the Jews in Jerusalem limited their travel to one thousand paces, it could ensure their destruction. Christ's prophecy implies that the Sanhedrin will exist in the last days and will have the authority to enforce such a religious rule. The historian Flavius Josephus calculated the distance from the Temple Mount to the Mount of Olives, known popularly as "the sabbath's day journey," as approximately one thousand yards. Interestingly, the gospel historian Luke wrote in the book of Acts that the distance from the Mount of Olives to the Temple Mount is approximately a thousand paces, a "sabbath's day journey" (1:12).

@Misright
l guess u have a pre-concieved idea about about who JESUS(God) was. Remember your mind is finite i.e too small to understand the nature of God and how He does this work. God of the OT is still the same God(Jesus) of today and forever. Empty ur heart, Open the Bible and read it carefully.God does not "kill" as you claimed without prior warning. He "kill" the evil doers during Noah's time and , but He gave warning!!!
God is still warning us now to accept who He is.

The fact is that God has designed our heart to curious but the truth is that our mind is[b] too finite[/b] to comprehend the nature of God.
God created humans in His own image i.e Tripartied; Body, spirit & soul.
In God, these part can exist independently but in human no way.
But check out various religion views about Jesus

Do you realize that Jesus not only spoke
to the seven churches in the book of
Revelation through John, but that He was
also speaking to the church today? I believe
we are living today in the last generation
before Jesus Christ will return to earth with
His feet touching the Mount of Olives.
(Zech. 14:2-4)
The seven churches of Revelation;
Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamos, Thyatira,
Sardis, Philadelphia and Laodicea, were
basically centers of seven postal districts in
the interior of the province of Asia. By
sending letters to these seven churches, they
would be shared with the smaller churches
in the outlying districts. During the time that
John wrote the book of Revelation, he was
stranded on Patmos and the church was
coming under severe persecution by the
government of Rome. John wrote the
Apocalypse by means of signs, symbols and
cryptic language in order not to be martyred
by the Roman government. The number
“seven” was and is considered to be the
perfect number, which stands for
completeness. As the true author of the
Book of Revelation, Jesus was delivering
messages of commendation,condemnation,
encouragement, hope, warning and reward
to the church of John’s day, the church
throughout history and today’s church.
The book of Revelation is part of the canon
of Scriptures; thus, it is the inspired Word
of God, and Jesus Christ Himself is the true
author, using John as His secretary. Rev. 1:1
starts out by stating for the record: “The
revelation of Jesus Christ…” Rev. 1:10-11
reads: “I (John) was in the Spirit on the
Lord’s day, and heard behind me, a great
voice, as of a trumpet, saying, I am Alpha
and Omega, the first and the last: and, what
thou seest write in a book, and send it unto
the seven churches which are in Asia…”
Rev.1:17-19 records: “And when I saw him, I
fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right
hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not: I
am the first and the last: I am he that liveth,
and was dead; and behold, I am alive for
evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell
and of death. Write the things which thou
hast seen, and the things which are, and
the things which shall be hereafter.” It is
intuitively clear that Jesus Christ is the
author, and He alone is speaking to us today.
It is with the authority of God Himself that
He commends, condemns, warns, rebukes
and calls us to repent and be faithful lest we
not only loose our power, anointing and gifts
of the Holy Spirit, but most importantly our
place in the Lamb’s Book of Life itself.
Let’s look closer at the church of Ephesus,
beginning with Rev. 2:1: “Unto the angel of
the church of Ephesus write; These things
saith he that holdeth the seven stars in his
right hand, who walketh in the midst of the
seven golden candlesticks, ” Here John is
saying that Jesus is addressing the Pastor
(angel) of Ephesus, and also Jesus holds the
other Pastors (stars) accountable for the
condition of the churches (golden
candlesticks). Verse 2 and 3 read: “ I know
thy works, and thy labor, and thy patience,
and how thou canst not bear them which
say they are apostles and are not, and hast
found them liars. And hast borne, and hast
patience, and for my name’s sake hast
labored, and hast not fainted.” Jesus in
verse 2 and 3 commends this church and
those like it for their hard, busy, active labor;
“toil which exhausts”. He also commends
them for their patience, meaning their
“triumphant fortitude”. In the area of
orthodoxy Jesus commends them for being
able to discern between good and acceptable
or bad and false teachers. To discern
between a true or false teacher and to have
the fortitude to confront and deal with wrong
teaching is so important because so many
churches are being torn apart by teachers of
heresy and nobody challenges or stops them
from spreading their lies. So this is a busy,
active, strong church by outward
appearances. Possibly they were involved
in evangelistic activities to add members to
the church. Their members were not afraid
to work to build the church physically and
cause it to grow numerically.
First we saw Jesus’ commendation, but
now in verse 4 we read Jesus’ condemnation
of the church in Ephesus: “Nevertheless I
have somewhat against thee, because thou
hast left thy first love.” Jesus follows up
with a command to remember their past sweet
relationship with Himself and their brethren
and a warning to repent for allowing it to slip
away in the business of life and replacing it
with wrong motives for building a mega
church. Verse 5 reads: “Remember therefore
from whence thou art fallen and repent and
do the first works; or else I will come unto
thee quickly, and will remove thy
candlestick out of his place, except thou
repent.” Saints, we all need to be careful
not to neglect our worship of Jesus in
exchange for serving Him with wrong
motives, which might build a businessman’s
mega church, but Jesus Himself condemns
it. When we truly take daily quality time to
love Jesus, then we exhibit His
characteristics to those around us; love, joy,
peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness,
faith, meekness, temperance. (Gal. 5:22,23)
In a living relationship with Jesus Christ we
are kind one to another and we have mercy
on the widow and the orphan. We treat the
street people with respect and compassion
and visit those in prison. We feed and clothe
the poor and pray for those afflicted
whenever we come in contact with them, not
just in front of a nationally televised
audience. There is such a lack of genuine
ministry today that the heart of Jesus grieves
as ministers of notoriety showcase their
supposed gifts of the Holy Spirit and build
their mega churches with wrong motives. The
strong warning was to “repent” or Jesus
would “remove thy candlestick”. To
“remove” means to judge, and history
January 16, 2003
records that the church of Ephesus did not
take Jesus’ warning seriously enough.
Today in Ephesus there is no Christian
church! When a person or church looses
their “first love”, anointing starts to leave.
If that church will not repent, the Holy Spirit
continues to depart, as in Ezekiel’s terrible
vision, and like Samson who shook himself
not realizing that the Spirit of God had left!
Samson was judged; Israel was judged;
Ephesus was judged; and the question is,
are you or your church being judged today?
Jesus goes on in verse 6 to commend:
“But this thou hast, that thou hatest the
deeds of the Nicolaitans, which also I hate.”
Nicolaitans were followers of Nicolaus, a
heretic. Jesus hates heresy! The Webster’s
Dictionary defines “heresy” as “religious or
ideological belief opposed to orthodoxy.”
Jesus hates heresy because it confuses
people, thus leading them away from Himself,
consequently giving their allegiance to
another person, god, philosophy, church or
religion, etc. Jesus hates cults because their
teachings deviate from the canon of Scripture
and from the infallibility of the Bible.
Orthodox Christianity believes in the
following essential fundamentals of faith:
1[b]) the inspiration of Scripture and the
inerrancy of the Bible;
2) the Trinity;
3) the deity of Jesus Christ;
4) the virgin birth of Jesus Christ;
5) the substitutionary atonement of Jesus
Christ’s death;
6) the literal resurrection of Jesus Christ
from the dead;
7) salvation is a gift which comes through
faith in Christ alone;
the literal return of Jesus Christ (the
second coming);
9) a literal heaven;
10) a literal hell;
11) a literal lake of fire.Cults center around a strong charismatic
person who either opposes Jesus Christ or
misrepresents Jesus Christ.[/b] Cults deny
the doctrine of the Trinity and the deity of
Jesus Christ. Cults do not accept the canon
of Scriptures as the final authority. They
either reject it or say they have other
revelation that supersedes the Bible. Some
also rely heavily on their religious tradition,
which to them outweighs the authority of
the original canon of Scriptures.
There are over 2000 cults in the United
States alone today.The following are just a
few from Dr. Fleming’s book, “Gatebreakers”:

PSEUDO-CHRISTIAN CULTS
These are organizations that purport to be
Christian but teach some marvelous
revelation (vision, dream or some angel
appeared to them) that has greater authority,
supplements or supersedes the canon of
Scripture. Mormonism, Jehovah’s
Witnesses, Unity, Christian Science, The
Unification Church, and The Way
International are examples.

NEW AGE CULTS
Scientology, Mind Sciences, The Forum
(E.S.T.), UFO’s,etc. In his book
“Understanding the New Age”, author
Russell Chandler gives this definition: “New
Age is a hybrid mix of spiritual, social, and
political forces, and it encompasses
sociology, theology, the physical sciences,
medicine, anthropology, history, the human
potentials movement, sports, and science
fiction…Identifying individuals as full-blown
New Agers is baffling. Some subscribe to
certain portions of New Age, some to
others… The New Age influence touches
virtually every area of life, and thousands of
New Age activists seek to transform society
through New Age precepts…Although new
in style and vocabulary, the movement is in
many ways as old as the Eastern religions of
Hinduism and Buddhism, Western occultism,
and the mystical oracles of ancient Greece
and Egypt. New Age has simply recast the
theory of reincarnation into the language of
Western humanistic psychology, science,
and technology.”

ORIENTAL CULTS
Originate from Hinduism and Buddhism.
Jainism, Sikhism, Hare Krishna, the Divine
Light, the Vedanta Society, ISKON,
Theosophy, Rajneeshism, Dravidians,
Transcendental Meditation, etc.

MIDDLE EAST CULTS
Islam, Bahaism, The Sunnites, The Shiaites,
The Sufi Muslims,Tijjanias, Ahmaddiyas etc.

OCCULT-SPIRITUALISTIC CULTS
Satanism, Witchcraft (WICCA), Spiritism,
Eckankar, Freemasonry, etc.

APOCALYPTIC CULTS
Solar Temple, Heaven’s Gate, Movement for
the Restoration of the Ten Commandments,
Aum Shinrikyo etc.
Remember the dialogue to the seven
churches of Revelation is from the Risen Lord
Jesus Christ Himself. He tells them
emphatically that he hates cults, false
teachers who lead people away from Him to
themselves and their false gods etc. Let us
take a look at what some cults say about
who Jesus is. 1 John chapters 2 & 3 warn us
that Jesus Christ is the son of God that Jesus
Christ is God and if anyone or any other spirit
contradicts this reality it is an anti-Christ.

BAHAI
Jesus was one of nine great world
manifestations. There is no Trinity. He is
not God. He is a prophet beneath
Baha’u’llah.

BUDDHISM
Deny Jesus Christ is God. Gautama Buddha
who rejected certain features of his native
Hinduism, taught that man’s release from
sorrow was not obtainable by any act of
sacrifice or pilgrimage which might be
interpreted as trying to gain favor of a deity.
He also taught that this release came from
the all absorbing knowledge that man’s
selfish desires were rooted in dualistic
delusions about the self. Buddha has been
regarded as a naturalistic atheist by many
both critics and disciples.

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE
Jesus is only a divine idea.

EVOLUTION
Denies the deity of Jesus Christ. This false
doctrine where man is not made in the image
of God but is an evolved animal has provided
a license and justification for evil without
guilt. The relationship between false
religions and the heresy of theistic evolution
is strong. Evolution is the foundation and
structure upon which humanism has built
its societal plagues of euthanasia, abortion,
divorce, racism, homosexuality,
pornography, population control,
reincarnation and every other de-
Christianized program of the United Nations
and their One World Religion which is
syncretism.

FREEMASONS
To them Christ was a mystical figure. Jaobul-
on is God, all men have divine potential.
Freemasonry uses deception to get men
involved and entraps them by secret ritual
rites and secret blood oaths. It blasphemes
the true name of God and purposely removes
the name of Jesus Christ from its Scripture
quotations. Its own writers teach paganism,
spiritism, and the occult. Read the book “The
Truth About Masons”. The Shriners strive
to be the face of the Masonic brotherhood
to the public. If you look carefully at the red
fezzes, you’ll see an Islamic sword and
crescent encrusted with jewels on the front.
The city of Fez represents a bloody slaughter
of 50,000 Christians in the eighth century by
Islamic barbarians. The Muslim murderers
dipped their caps in the blood of the
Christians as a testimony to Allah. In order
to become a Shriner, a man must have risen
through all the degrees of either the Scottish
or York Rites. After an initiation rite in the
Shriners that is obscene, the candidate
swears a blood oath that is four and a half
pages long; agrees that it is non-revocable,
and then takes an oath in the name of Allah.
When people first enter the Masons, I believe
most do not realize the cult they have just
joined. It is not until one progresses up the
ladder and continues to receive their
teachings pertaining to that level of
Masonry do they start to recognize the
satanic depths of Freemasonry. The general
teaching of the degrees and rituals is that
the candidate is in darkness without the light
of Masonry that reveals hidden mysteries.
The following are examples of some of the
oaths they have to take:
1) Entered Apprentice—Candidate is
blindfolded, left arm and breast naked, wears
blue pajamas with one leg missing, noose
around the neck, led around from darkness
to light. It is here that they are given the
white apron. This represents purity and the
covering of sin which is supposed to save
them at judgment day. Masons wear this
when buried. Part of the oath they take at
this level is: “having my throat cut across,
my tongue torn out from its roots, and my
body buried in the rough sands of the sea.”
2) Master Mason—The legend of Hiram
Abiff. Candidate pretends to be Hiram Abiff,
the builder of King Solomon’s Temple (1
Kings 7:13). Their legend teaches that Hiram
was privileged to know the name of the one
true God. He was killed and the name was
lost to men. The initiate acts all of this out.
However, in the end of the ritual the initiate
is raised back to life with the strong grip of
the Lion’s paw by “King Solomon”. This
grip is very important to secret societies. It
is used in the witchcraft rituals of Wicca and
is known as the “Strong Grip of the Lion of
the Tribe of Judah.” Part of the oath at this
level is: “my body severed in two, my bowels
taken from thence and burned to ashes etc.”
(If they revealed the secrets of the order.)
3) Royal Arch Degree—Candidate stands
before someone dressed in a high priest
outfit and has revealed to him “the lost
word”--the “lost name of God” that Hiram
Abiff knew. This is the name that the Mason
has been searching for throughout the rituals
of Masonry. He is told that the true name of
God is Jabulon (or Jaobulon). Now lets break
this name down because in this initiation
ceremony three Masons reveal the name to
the candidate by speaking their part of it,
Jao-bul-on. Jao = Jah meaning Yahweh or
Jehovah, God of Israel. Bul = Baal or Bel,
God of Canaan. On = Osiris, (Egyptian sun
god), God of Egypt.
It should be noted that there are many
references to Jehovah and Adonai also in
the Masonic rituals, but the names are
blasphemed because they are perverted to
represent other than the God of the Holy
Bible. The oath of this level is: “I would
sooner have my skull off than divulge any of
the secrets of this degree unlawfully…and
have my brain exposed to the scorching rays
of the noonday sun.” Some other oaths at
different levels are: Past Master of the York
Rite, “binding myself under no less penalty
than to have my tongue split from tip to root.”
Tenth Degree of the Scottish Rite level, “I do
promise and swear upon the Holy Bible, to
keep exactly in my heart all the secrets that
shall be revealed to me. And in failure of this
by obligation, I consent to have my body
opened perpendicularly, and to be exposed
for eight hours in the air, that the venomous
flies may eat of my entrails, my head to be
cut off and put on the highest pinnacle of
the world.”
Note that in the 17th degree of the Scottish
Rite the candidate is taught that ABADDON
is a sacred name to be honored. ABADDON
is the king over the demons in the pit of hell.
Manley P. Hall, one of the highest level
Masonic authors, claims that the key demon
of the Masons is BAPHOMET, known as
the satanic Goat of Mendes. Albert Pike
substituted a triangle for the cross and said
that it referred to Shiva, Krishna, and Brahma,
The Hindu Trinity. Albert Pike books are
considered by some Masons as
authoritative. He was given the honorary
thirty-third degree of the Scottish Rite in 1857
and became the Grand Commander of the
Supreme Council in 1859 and reigned as the
undisputed head until his death in 1891. The
murder of William Morgan in 1826
triggered a national political movement--
the anti-Masonic party--the first mass
movement in American history organized
to destroy Freemasonry. William Morgan
worked in Batvia, New York, as a stone
mason. Having been initiated as a Royal
Arch Mason, he understood the workings
of the lodge and the rituals within. He
became disgruntled at his Masonic brothers
for refusing to start a Masonic chapter in
Batvia where he hoped to be given the
contract for building the Hall and decided to
publish a book entitled: “Illustrations of
Masonry, Exposing All the Rituals, Secrets,
Handshakes, and Oaths”. The Masons
retaliated by kidnapping and murdering
Morgan.

HARE KRISHNA
Jesus was an enlightened vegetarian teacher
of meditation, maybe Krishna.

HINDUISM
Jesus Christ was a guru, a teacher, or even
avatar of Vishnu. Modern Hinduism allows
for millions of gods. The majority of Hindus,
about 79 percent, worship Vishnu while other
millions worship Shiva, the god of fertility,
whose rituals are as evil as those of the
Canaanites who God commanded the
children of Israel to destroy.

ISLAM
Muslims believe Jesus is only a prophet.
They exalt Allah, a moon deity, and
Muhammad.

JEHOVAH’S WITNESSES
Jesus is Michael the Archangel. The first
being God created. He came as a man, died,
and rose as an invisible spirit; came back
invisible in 1914 to Brooklyn to head
Watchtower.

MOON’S UNIFICATION CHURCH
Jesus was a man who failed; Moon is the
Second Coming. Rev. Sun Myung Moon
has declared that he is the new world
Messiah. Moon claims to have had regular
contact with Buddha, Krishna, Jesus,
Moses, John the Baptist, and other prophets.
Moon claims that Jesus Christ appeared to
him in a vision admonishing him to carry out
the task that Christ had failed to complete.
The Unification Bible, ‘Divine Principle’ was
published in 1957.
It should be noted that the immorality
charge for which Moon was arrested was
based around a blood-cleansing sex ritual
called Pikaruna. “Pikaruna” is based on the
belief that because original sin came through
Eve’s sexual intercourse with Satan, a woman
could have sex three times with Moon, the
perfect man, and thus liquidate her original
sin. After intercourse with Moon a woman
achieved a perfected status, and male church
members could have sexual relations with
her and liquidate their own sin. Couples
experiencing this blood cleansing [could]
produce perfect children. If practiced widely
enough, such a ritual could save the world.
His theology, based upon the 1936 vision,
also includes the divine need for him to have
sexual relations with 70 married women, 70
widows, and 70 virgins.

MORMONS
Jesus is the spirit brother of Satan; one god
in a pantheon of gods; born through physical
incest.

NEW AGE
Jesus was an ascended master, guru, and
spiritual guide, but not God and not Savior.

ROMAN CATHOLICISM
Romanism should be regarded as a
deformation of Christianity, in fact as its
lowest deformation. And this deformation
expresses itself not merely at some, but at
every point of doctrine. They do believe
Jesus is God but historical Christianity
places the Bible, the Logos as supreme in
authority, but this is not so with Catholicism.
Catholicism equates their tradition with the
Bible and thus places the directives of the
church (at times) in a higher authority. This
is quite serious as it undermines the Bible
and what it teaches (Col. 2:8 and Mark 7:6-
9). On November 21, 1964, Pope Paul VI
proclaimed “the title of Mary as Mother of
the Church”. To non-Catholics this
proclamation seems preposterous,
ridiculous and outright heresy since the
Bible says nothing about Mary being the
Mother of the Church. But the mind of a
devout Catholic would willingly accept this
lie because it was spoken by the Pope, who
according to Catholic tradition is the
Apostle Peter’s successor and speaks with
infallibility regarding doctrines of faith and
morals. This is scary stuff for Christians
because we know that the Pope is just
another man who is not infallible and he does
make mistakes. We also know the Pope’s
decisions on doctrine at times is totally
unscriptural and so is his position and title.
The Bible shows a number of facts that
refute Catholicism’s claims of the Pope and
Peter concept:
[b]1) Neither the word ‘pope’ nor the office
of it are mentioned in the Bible.
2) It is not clear that Peter was ever even
in Rome. Paul did not mention it.
3) Jesus changing Peter’s name proves
nothing because he changed the names
of others as well, Mark 3:16-17; 1 John
1:42.
4) Paul’s work seems greater than Peter’s
in comparison, but he never sought
ultimate leadership. Neither do we see
him submitting himself to Peter. Once,
he even rebuked him, Gal 2:11-14.
5) James, the Lord’s brother (Gal. 1:19)
appears to be the head of the early
church in Jerusalem not Peter.[/b]Consider the following evidence: James
was named first among the pillars of the
church in Gal. 2:9. Peter distinguished the
name of James in Acts 12:17 after he was
miraculously released from prison by the
angel. “Go, tell these things to James and
the brethren.” At the great Jerusalem
Debate over circumcision, Barnabas, Paul
and Peter submitted to James’ decision. In
Acts 15:19 we see James running the meeting
and deciding: “Wherefore my sentence is,
that we trouble not them, which from among
the Gentiles are turned to God.” Flavius
Josephus is considered one of the most
reliable Jewish historians of all times. He
was born in 37 AD. It is remarkable that he
highly regards James for his righteousness.
Indeed, he speculated that the “desolation”
of Jerusalem was because the Jews murdered
James, but nowhere does he mention Peter.
Martin Luther, a Catholic Monk and
Theologian, after studying the Bible,
protested against the Church of Rome in 1517
by nailing 95 points of disagreement to the
door of a church in Wittenberg, Germany,
coming against Rome’s unscriptural
teachings on the church, the Scriptures and
tradition. Martin Luther was convinced that
the office of Pope was unscriptural. Luther
said: ‘I believe in neither pope nor councils
alone; for it is perfectly well established that
they have frequently erred, as well as
contradicted themselves.

ROSICRUCIAN
Jesus is a manifestation of cosmic
consciousness.

SCIENTOLOGY
Jesus is a false implanted memory in people’s
mind.

SPIRITISTS
Jesus is an advanced medium in the 6th sphere
of astral projection.

THEOSOPHY
Jesus is no greater than other religious
leaders since all men are Christs.

TRANSCENDENTAL MEDITATION
Jesus was an enlightened guru who never
suffered for anyone. This is one of dozens
of Hindu-related religions that have sprung
up in America as many gurus sought a
following in America.

UNITARIANS
Jesus was a good man that followers
mistakenly deified.

UNITY
Jesus was a man who perfected a divine idea.

THE WAY
Jesus is the Son of God, but not God the
Son; they deny the Trinity.

YOGA
Denies Jesus is God. The teachings and
techniques of yoga were incorporated into
the Hindu religion about 100 BC by Patanjali
in the Yoga Sutras. Yoga became one of six
schools of thought regarding salvation
through knowledge (Jnana Marga)…Yoga
means ‘yoke or union with God.’ God is the
Impersonal All and Universal Soul to which
they want to yoke themselves…In the
Western world, yoga is often thought of as
simple isometric exercises, but it is much
deeper than that. Yoga has become the
leading method for Hindus to transcend this
world of illusion. The union with their god
that a yogi hopes to achieve is supposedly
reached only after living a moral life, gaining
inner and outer purity, and training the body
through various exercises and postures.
I could go on and on listing cults and
their teachings. What they all have in
common is a deviation or outright rejection
of the canon of Scriptures. They all reject
Jesus is God or they have a person who now
can add or nullify the Scriptures by their own
authority and church tradition. They all have
some teacher, prophet, guru, apostle, bishop,
pope etc., who has received new revelation
or additional revelation from a dream, vision,
angel etc. Gal. 1:6-9 warns: “I marvel that
ye are so soon removed from him that called
you into the grace of Christ unto another
gospel: Which is not another; but there be
some that trouble you, and would pervert
the gospel of Christ. But though we, or an
angel from heaven preach any other gospel
unto you than that which we have preached
unto you, let him be accursed. As we said
before, so say I now again, if any man preach
any other gospel unto you than that ye have
received, let him be accursed.”
The Canon of Scriptures did not include
the Apocrypha and the Canon warns us
clearly not to add or subtract from the
Scriptures lest we be damned. Revelation
22:18-19 reads: “For I testify unto every man
that heareth the words of the prophecy of
this book, if any man shall add unto these
things, God shall add unto him the plagues
that are written in this book: And if any
man shall take away from the words of the
book of this prophecy, God shall take away
his part out of the book of life, and out of
the holy city, and from the things which are
written in this book.”
The Apocrypha is a Greek word meaning
hidden or concealed. The Apocrypha books
were rejected from the canon of Scriptures
because they did not meet the criteria for
canonization. Examples of criteria for books
to be considered inspired, infallible: 1) the
word of God had Apostolic Authorship; 2)
was recognized and used by leading
churches or the majority of them; and, 3) a
conformity to the standards of sound
doctrine as from the Lord. The church
fathers had a standard and followed the rule,
“if in doubt, throw it out.”
Orthodox Christians who submit to the
canon of Scriptures reject the Apocrypha.
Roman Catholicism has included it in their
own Roman Catholic Bible to support their
church tradition and teachings which go
against the Bible, thus making the Word of
God null and void in those circumstances.
The priests and Pope totally disregard the
strong warnings in the canon of Scriptures
against adding or subtracting or drawing the
glory away from Jesus and giving it to a man
or woman. Thus, Catholics in many
instances go against the teachings of Jesus
Christ in order to obey the teaching of the
Pope.
Dr. Fleming in his book, “Gatebreakers:
Answering Cults and World Religions with
Prayer, Love and Witnessing”, states the
following: “The reasons the Apocrypha was
and is rejected as authoritative and Godinspired
Scripture is: One, Jesus never
quoted the Apocrypha and did not
acknowledge it as Scripture. Two, the first
century apostles did not quote it or recognize
it as equal to Scripture. Three, the books
were rejected by the Jewish Council of Jamnia
(A.D.90). Four, it is rejected by modern day
Jews and not a part of their canon. Five, it
was not originally included in the Greek
Septuagint by the seventy. Six, Jerome never
regarded the Apocrypha as Scripture. He
only translated the books under coercion and
never accepted them as Scripture. After his
death, the books were added to his Latin
Vulgate. Seven, Augustine did acknowledge
the Apocrypha in his early writings, but his
later writings clearly reflected a rejection of
these books as outside the canon and
inferior to the Hebrew scriptures.
Furthermore, he presided over the African
council of Hippo that canonized the New
Testament, rejecting all other books. Eight,
the Roman Catholic Church itself did not
recognize these books until the Council of
Trent (1545-1563), and this was done as a
reaction to the Protestant Reformation and
to legitimize some of their doctrinal matters.
(Example: 2 Maccabees 12:45-46 gives them
their doctrine of praying for the dead). Nine,
the books abound in historical and
geographical inaccuracies. Ten, they teach
false doctrines that are at odds with other
Scripture. Eleven, they lack the distinctive
elements that give Scripture divine character.
Twelve, the books never claim to be the Word
of God or given by prophets.”
Rene Pache in his book, “The Inspiration
and Authority of Scritpture”, points out
some of the many problems with the
Apocrypha. He says: “Except for certain
interesting historical information (especially
in 1 Maccabees) and a few beautiful moral
thoughts (e.g. wisdom of Solomon), these
books contain absurd legends and
platitudes, and historical, geographical and
chronological errors, as well as manifestly
heretical doctrines; they even recommend
immoral acts (Judith 9:10,13).” Pachs
contends that Rome added the Apocrypha
to justify their human traditions. “Now, we
must remember that it was the Jews who were
called upon to compile the Old Testament.
As Paul said, it was to them that the oracles
of God were confided (Romans 3:1-2). We
received those oracles from their hands and
no one else. Why, then did Rome take so
new and daring a position? Because
confronted by the Reformation, she lacked
arguments to justify her unscriptural
deviations. Consequently, she declared that
the Apocryphal books supported such
doctrines as prayers for the dead (II Macc.
12:44); the expiatory sacrifice (eventually to
become the mass, (II Macc. 12:39-46);
almsgiving with expiatory value, also leading
to deliverance from dead (Tobit 12:9; 4:10);
invocation and intercession of the saints (II
Macc.15:14; Bar. 3:4); the worship of angels
(Tobit 12:12); purgatory; and the redemption
of souls after death (II Macc. 12:42, 46).”
For your information, the books of the
Apocrypha are 1 Esdras, 2 Esdras, Tobit,
Judith, the additions to Esther, the Wisdom
of Solomon, Ecclesiasticus, Baruch, the
Letter of Jeremiah, the additions to the Book
of Daniel (the Prayer of Asariah and the Song
of the Three Young Men; Susanna; and Bel
and the Dragon), the Prayer of Manasseh, 1
Maccabees, and 2 Maccabees.
Jesus finally ends with a warning to the
Ephesus church in Revelation 2:7: “He that
hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit
saith unto the churches; To him that
overcometh will I give to eat of the tree of
life, which is in the midst of the paradise of
God.”
Once again, the number “seven”
represents completeness or totality. Jesus,
the Risen Lord Himself, is speaking to the
churches then and the churches now. In
Ephesus we see some good things that the
church was doing. In fact, originally it was
out of a loving, pure heart. Nevertheless,
over time, the cause and intent became wrong.
Where initially they worked with their hands,
energies, resources and talents to build a
church, building with the holiest of motives
for Jesus’ glory and to truly bring the lost
into the kingdom, eventually that became
secondary. Without realizing it, pastors and
elders were continually developing and
glamorizing the structure for their own
prestige. In the beginning they evangelized
to actually bring people out of paganism into
the light of Jesus Christ and into eternal life
because of their deep first love (Jesus). Now
they were doing evangelism for themselves
to show how correct, powerful and respected
they were and are amongst the church
community and society. Consequently, they
compromised more, failing to deal with each
person impartially. Instead they considered
their position in wealth, in the church, and
within the community. They were slowly but
consistently loosing their first love and
making decisions based on (as Solomon
would eventually admit) vanity.
Jesus was and is telling the church to love
Him first and foremost with all their heart so
as to develop His character and grow in His
image whereby they actually can represent
Him here on earth and render correct justice
and judgment. With passion and
compassion they are to feed the poor, take
care of the widow and orphan, visit and
comfort those in prison, heal the sick, deliver
the oppressed and possessed, and walk and
grow with power and anointing.
Jesus used the term “to him that
overcometh” because He knew the mentality
of the Ephesian culture with their games,
rewards, etc. In Asia, during the time of the
Ephesian church, the governor had a palace
in the city of Ephesus. Also, the Pan Ionic
Games, which were second only to the
Olympics, were held in Ephesus. The city
has been called “the Vanity Fair of the
ancient world”. As does Seattle,
Washington, Ephesus possessed one of the
greatest seaports, so she was a very rich
and proud city. One of the seven wonders
of the Ancient world, the Temple of Artemis
was located at Ephesus, which made
Ephesus a very liberal, immoral, and pagan
city. Heraclitus, a philosopher in Ephesus is
reported to have said: “The inhabitants of
Ephesus are fit only to be drowned. The
reason I never laugh or smile is that I lived
among such terrible uncleanness.” He was
referring to deep immorality such as
homosexuality, lesbianism, adultery,
fornication, etc. As an athlete in Ephesus
had to train to win and overcome, Jesus told
the church that they too must be as
dedicated to fight in this battle against
conforming to the culture and values of this
world. Out of their first love for Him they
must with all patience (fortitude) spend daily
time alone with Him in worship, meditation,
study and prayer. They must, in the power
of their relationship with Him, confront those
around them in this pagan community and
win them over, just as an athlete in the Roman
games wants to finish first, overcoming all
of his competition and resistance. The
Christian now must overcome the
temptations to conform to society’s
lifestyles, and, instead, daily try to convert
the people to Jesus’ kingdom. Where the
athlete who won the games in Ephesus ate
and wallowed in the beauties of Ephesus,
Jesus promised those of us who “overcome”
will eat from “the tree of life” and enjoy the
glories of heaven forever.

l love this topic. l find it amazing wjen people say christianity is a religion
Religion is man's way of meeting higher being (GOD)
The big Q is- Are men worthy to meet God? The answer is NO because of our Sinful and rebellious nature.
Anyway out? Yes! Jesus

@Baba
You need to seek God intervention in this situation. It's really serious bro. but u can honestly overcome the problem if u wanted to.
Don't call urself a Christian pls because the Spirit of God of does not propel one to smoke weed
You cannot worship two masters at the same time bro.
Think a minute!
May the Lord deliver us all
