 Christianity Etc › Re: Could These Gun Men Be Pastors? They Quote The Bible So Well To Support Themselv by Gombs(m): 7:43am On Oct 21, 2013 |
OP I rather find your topic disturbing Must you use the word PASTORS? @Jo, you are very right, it's very true policemen use scriptures for extortion eg the one below...and as you asked the OP, I'm asking too, are they pastors? Matt 5v25 New American Standard Bible "Make friends quickly with your opponent at law while you are with him on the way, so that your opponent may not hand you over to the judge, and the judge to the officer, and you be thrown into prison." |

Justified To Reign · Monday, October 21st Pastor Chris For if by one man’s offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ (Romans 5:17). A righteousness which is without the Law; that’s the righteousness which is by the faith of Jesus Christ (Romans 3:21, 22). That righteousness has been credited to your account as a child of God. This had nothing to do with your actions: what you did, or didn’t do; it’s the grace of God! Ephesians 2:9 says, "Not of works, lest any man should boast." It’s therefore pointless to try to impress God with your "works." Acts 13:39 tells us, "And by him (Jesus Christ) all that believe are justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses." Meaning that if you believe in Jesus, you’ve been accounted righteous and declared not guilty: that which couldn’t be achieved by keeping the Law with its ordinances has now been perfected by the faith of Christ. Romans 4:24-25 says, "But for us also, to whom it shall be imputed, if we believe on him that raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead; Who was delivered for our offences, and was raised again for our justification." This is a legal or formal declaration of innocence. Jesus was delivered to death for your offenses, and raised back to life for your acquittal; you’ve been formally declared not guilty. God is not charging you with any wrong, because to Him, you never sinned. How could this be? The reason is that, being born again, you’re now a new man, with the life and nature of God, having no past. 2 Corinthians 5:17 says, "Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creation: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new." You have a new life in Christ; the resurrection life (Romans 6:4); you’ve been justified by faith, to reign and rule in life: "…they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ" (Romans 5:17). Confession I’m a new creation in Christ Jesus, born with the resurrection life! I’ve embraced the righteousness which is by the faith of Jesus Christ, through which I’ve been justified to reign and rule in life. I walk in the light of my new life in Christ, conscious of my right standing with God, having received abundance of grace, and of the gift of righteousness. f u r t h e r s t u d y: Romans 5:1; Romans 3:20-24 Romans 5:1 Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: Romans 3:20-24 20 Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be justified in his sight: for by the law is the knowledge of sin. 21 But now the righteousness of God without the law is manifested, being witnessed by the law and the prophets; 22 Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference: 23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; 24 Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus: Daily Scripture Reading 1 Year Reading Plan : 1 Timothy 3:1-16, Isaiah 54-56 2 Year Reading Plan : John 6:61-71, 2 Kings 7-8 1 Like |

And God reveals himself 2 us thru da Holy Spirit,when we accept Christ as our Lord nd Saviour( Acts 1:7;Acts 2)[/quote]The above bold is Not true! God NEVER revealed himself to Adam and Eve. It was Jesus that was with them. God NEVER leaves his throne. Gen 3v8 KJV 8 And they heard the voice of the LORD God walking in the garden in the cool of the day: and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the LORD God amongst the trees of the garden. Jesus is the Word of God. Jn 1v1 that word came walking. @Op the Holyspirit is same as God, he proceeds from the father. God never leaves his throne, but manifest him self by the person of the Holyspirit and dwells in us and through us, does his will and wonders all over the world. |

Prosperity—An Ability · Sunday, October 20th · Pastor Anita Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth (3 John 1:2). Many have only thought of prosperity in terms of money or the multiplication of material possessions, but prosperity is first an ability. Material possessions or finances are often the most common symbols or indications of prosperity, which is why many equate prosperity with money; but it’s beyond money. Let’s review the example of Joseph in Genesis 39:2; the Bible describes him as a prosperous man: "And the Lord was with Joseph, and he was a prosperous man; and he was in the house of his master the Egyptian." We’re told that he (Joseph) made his master, Potiphar, to prosper, to the extent that Potiphar made Joseph overseer of all that he had: "…the Lord blessed the Egyptian’s house for Joseph’s sake; and the blessing of the Lord was upon all that he had in the house, and in the field. And he left all that he had in Joseph’s hand…" (Genesis 39:5-6). Even after he was falsely accused and sent to prison, the Bible says that Joseph was still prosperous. He was put in charge of the prisoners and the Lord made him successful in all that he did (Genesis 39:22- 23). You can be "in prison," and be prosperous. You can be working for somebody or an organization, and be the reason for their prosperity. Consider Jacob: the Bible says he made Laban to prosper. In Genesis 30:27, Laban testified of this to Jacob and said, "…I have learned by experience that the LORD hath blessed me for thy sake." Much more than the acquisition of material possessions, prosperity is the ability to help others prosper! It’s the ability to do what you want to do, go where you want to go, and be whatever you want to be to the glory of Christ! It’s the ability to please God, and walk with the Spirit, and have His glory manifested in your life! It’s the Spirit of dominion at work in your life as a child of God. You’ve been empowered by God, not just to prosper spiritually, mentally, physically and materially, but also to make others prosperous. Prayer I’m growing in grace and increasing in the knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ. The Word is prevailing in my life, causing me to prosper in my body, finances and in every area of my life! I’ve been empowered to bring prosperity to others, in Jesus’ Name.

You Can "Make" Something Out Of Nothing! · Saturday, October 19th Pastor Chris Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear (Hebrews 11:3). Our theme scripture shows us the power of faith. It says through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the Word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear. This means you can bring something out of nothing, through faith. How do you acquire faith? Romans 10:17 says, "So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God." That means if you didn’t have enough faith, you could make faith come to you by hearing the Word. Faith comes to you in the Word, and with that faith, you can make things happen. This completely debunks the mentality of those who sit idly by, waiting for "something good to happen to them." Never wait for things to happen by themselves. Through faith you can create something out of nothing. 2 Corinthians 4:6 reveals an important principle to this effect; it says, "For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ." Notice that God didn’t wait for the darkness to turn to light; He commanded the light to shine out of darkness! There’s a difference between lighting up a dark place and shining light out of darkness. The latter is the faith of God Jesus described in Mark 11:22. Now, remember, we’re made in the image and likeness of God; that means we look like Him, and can function like Him. Therefore, when life looks dark, and things look confusing, you can make something good out of that seemingly distressing situation with the Word of faith in your mouth. You can command light out of darkness. What you need is the Word of God; when that Word comes to you, it will spark up faith in your spirit to see endless possibilities. Put that faith to work through words and "make something out of nothing." Confession God, who commanded light to shine out of darkness, has shined in my heart! Therefore, I have received that same ability of faith, to call forth those things which I desire to see in my life. I manifest joy, prosperity and victory, everyday, in the Name of Jesus, Amen. f u r t h e r s t u d y: Genesis 1:1-3; Mark 11:22-23 Daily Scripture Reading 1 Year Reading Plan : 1 Timothy 1:1-20, Isaiah 50-51 2 Year Reading Plan : John 6:41-51 2 Kings 5 1 Like |

Fuel Your Passion For The Gospel! · Friday, October 18th · Pastor Chris Never lag in zeal and in earnest endeavour; be aglow and burning with the Spirit, serving the Lord (Romans 12:11 AMP). The Gospel of Jesus Christ is the only saving message for the world, and you’re a custodian of this life-changing message. It’s the message of power by which God saves, heals, protects, delivers, preserves, and prospers. In Romans 1:16-17, the Apostle Paul said, "For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek. For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith." Observe those beautiful, Spirit-inspired words carefully; it says, the Gospel is the power of God unto salvation to everyone that believes. The Gospel isn’t one of the requirements nor part of God’s power for salvation, no! The Holy Spirit, penning down this truth through Paul, was absolute! The Gospel is God’s ONLY power to save man. You must be convinced about this and become passionate in your spirit for the Gospel. When you’re passionate about the Gospel it’ll impact those around you. Passion is like fire that must be fuelled, otherwise it’ll be extinguished. Therefore, you must fuel your passion for the Gospel. The Gospel of Christ must burn in your heart. Fuel your passion for the Gospel by talking and sharing it again and again! Talk and discuss the Gospel. Discuss with people of like passion: those who are equally fired up in their spirits for the Gospel. Don’t spend time on the wrong information that could dissipate your zeal; don’t spend time with those who have no passion for the Lord, and for the Gospel. Spend time in the Gospel! Keep talking the Word and of your love for Christ and His Kingdom. The more you talk about His kindness, goodness, love for the world, and His message of salvation, the more the fire of His love will burn in the quarters of your heart! Prayer Dear Father, I thank you for making me a custodian of the Gospel of Jesus Christ, the only message that can save the sinner, and bring them out of darkness into the glorious life of righteousness! I thank you for counting me faithful and worthy to be a minister of reconciliation; I’m ministering the Gospel with power, to the unsaved around me today, in Jesus’ Name.

Boldly Say What God Has Said… · Thursday, October 17th · Pastor Chris ...For he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee. So that we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do unto me (Hebrews 13:5-6). When it comes to declaring the Word of God, you have to be unflinching; be bold to say what God has said about you. The Word in your mouth is God talking, and has inherent power to produce what it says. When you speak the Word with the boldness of the Spirit, things change. The Bible tells us in Acts 4:31 that the Apostles were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and they spoke the Word with boldness. What was it they said that passed as the Word of God? In this context, whatever they might have said about themselves, on the basis of what God has said, is the Word of God. It also implies preaching; being bold to affirm the Gospel. The Apostle Peter for one, on the day of Pentecost, declared the Word of God with such boldness that three thousand souls were saved after they heard him speak. Peter’s words were so impregnated with divine energy that it pricked the hearts of his hearers: "Now when they heard this, they were pricked in their heart, and said unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men and brethren, what shall we do?" (Acts 2:37). Never be timid about the Word; declare it at all times with boldness. Be bold to declare who you are, what you have, and what God has accomplished for you in Christ. For example, 2 Corinthians 5:21 says, "For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him." Therefore, be bold to declare that you’ve been made righteous; you’re the proof of His goodness and equity. Speak boldly in consonance with that word, declaring to everyone that you’re the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus. Even now, make bold confessions of the Word about yourself! Declare that you’re in Christ: in Him you live and move, and have your being! You reign with Him in the realms of glory; you’re a victor, and your life is for the glory of God! Confession Greater is He that’s in me than he that’s in the world. I’m living the life of glory and excellence through the power of God’s Spirit. I’m reigning as a king in life, having received abundance of grace, and the gift of righteousness.

| Christianity Etc › Re: Why Do Many Dislike/hate Jehovah's Witnesses? by Gombs(m): 3:50pm On Oct 16, 2013 |
Freksy: What has always been with you is your speech organ(s), not your spoken words. Proverbs 23:7 KJV - For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he: Luke 6v45 King James Bible A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh. From the above you can see a man is as good as what he says or as bad as what he says...in other words a man is SAME as his words. You cannot separate a man from his Words, they are ALWAYS same. Your question is the same as saying: If you can show me in Genesis 1 where angels were created....I'd believe you they were created. God finished ALL his creation work on the 6th day right?Heheheheh...how can you then explain the creation of the Holy Spirit? Yes, I believe in the Holy Spirit. It is not the same as God, but a possession of God. God uses it to accomplish his purposes.Hahahahahahaha Was he created too? You didn't answer that! You called Him an 'IT' and as a 'Possession of God' and "God uses IT to accomplish His purposes" meaning He or rather IT is a kinda tool God uses How do you explain these? 1corinth 2v11 New International Version For who knows a person's thoughts except their own spirit within them? In the same way no one knows the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God. New Living Translation No one can know a person's thoughts except that person's own spirit, and no one can know God's thoughts except God's own Spirit. King James Bible For what man knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of man which is in him? even so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God. A man and his spirit are same, aint they? Hence only His spirit knows what he is thinking? Pls explain the words in bold for me. For if the Holy Spirit is an IT and not same as God how then does he know the thoughts of God? "And it is the Spirit that beareth witness, because the Spirit is the truth. For there are three who bear witness, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood: and the three agree in one". 1 John 5:7-8 (ASV)Try the greek manuscript of verse 7 What is the name of the Holy Spirit?Wonderful question....was gonna ask you that. His name is same as God's they are same. He is that same Spirit that raised Jesus from the Dead, Romans 8v11 Wait first.... Who raised Jesus from the Dead? According to you, "the spirit" is man; "the water" is man; and "the blood" is also man. These three are one man.Huh? Don't fabricate stuffz na! The Spirit, water and blood bear witness on EARTH (are in unison, their testimony coincides) the water and blood here are (Christ's Baptism and Death). Take out time and study Hell is for all, we go there at death. From there too, people will be resurrected.Hahahahahahahaahahahahahahahahahahahahaahhahahahahaahahhahaahahahahahahahahahhaahahhahahahaahhaahahahahahahahahahahahaahhahahahahahahahahahahaha So saints who dies 500years ago are in hell now waiting for the resurrection? Hahahahahahahahaha So saint go through torment in hell while they wait for resurrection? Do you guys believe the Lake of Fire exist? Ok sirLet's leave this topic alone abeg. |

Freksy: It pains you that they don't agree with you, or you just don't like John 1:1?It pains me because you lot said, "the Word was a god." I asked a JW whether a man can be separated from his words? He said No..that a man and his words are same...then I asked him can you separate God from his words?...that God and his words should be same...he answered "Yes". But the bible you just read said "the word was made flesh and dwelt amongst us" (he was using my KJV...I insisted he use it) Then I smiled and said how then did you guys conclude that "the Word was a god"? I loved the confusion look on his face! Was he not?If you can show me I Genesis 1 where Jesus was created...I'd believe you.God finished ALL his creation work on the 6th day right? The Holy Spirit they know is often written as two words. Besides, they never say it's irrelevant.So, do you believe in the Holy Spirit? And that He is same as God? Or was he created too? Yes, there is nothing like trinity in the bible. You shouldn't be pained that they say so, especially, if you lack convincing scriptural substance to buttress your claim. 1 John 5:7 King James Version (KJV) 7 For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one. Matthew 28:19 “Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit ” Read verse 8 King James Bible 8 And there are three that bear witness in earth, the spirit, and the water, and the blood: and these three agree in one. Its ok if you still don't agree I don't think so. They believe in hell, though not as a place of fiery and eternal torment for the wicked.Hell then is for who? None JWs?

Empowered Witnesses · Wednesday, October 16th · Pastor Anita And when they had prayed, the place was shaken where they were assembled together; and they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and they spake the word of God with boldness…And with great power gave the apostles witness of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: and great grace was upon them all (Acts 4:31, 33). The Lord Jesus, before His ascension, said "… ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in all Judaea, and in Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the earth" (Acts 1:8 ). That means you have the self-generating power to effect changes, and be an effective witness for the Lord Jesus. This power works like a dynamo in you and it’s by the operation of the Holy Spirit. The Master also described the operation of the power of the Holy Spirit in the Christian as "... rivers of living water" (John 7:38). There’s something "bubbling" inside us, propelling us to minister the Word of God with power, and dispense His goodness. The presence of the Holy Spirit, not just with us, but in us, makes us effective witnesses of the resurrection. We just can’t keep quiet about the Gospel; it’s like fire shut up in our bones (Jeremiah 20:9). The Church of Jesus Christ is not weak and powerless, as the devil would want to make us believe; we’re empowered witnesses. We’re anointed to preach the Gospel, "…not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect" (1 Corinthians 1:17), but in the demonstration of the Spirit, and of power (1 Corinthians 2:4). The cross of Christ wouldn’t be effective in our day if our preaching comes only with words. Christianity is a supernatural life and the power of God must be demonstrated in our lives, and we must impact the world with the same power. Anything short of this isn’t true Christianity. Keep walking in the light of God’s Word, and be conscious of the reality of the Holy Spirit who lives in you, and has endued you with power to be an effective witness. Prayer Dear Father, I thank you for anointing me with the Holy Spirit and with power to effect changes and be an effective witness of the resurrection. Your power in me is activated today as I minister the Gospel and dispense your goodness to my world, to the effect that many would be brought into the knowledge of your grace and love, in Jesus’ Name.
