Revelation Knowledge - Saturday, November 11th .

Pastor Chris

According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue (2 Peter 1:3).

The English translation of the New Testament section of the Bible was derived from the Greek. The old Greek words are written differently from what you’d see in English, because the English language isn’t rich enough to express certain spiritual realities; it’s overly generic in nature.

For instance, the English language uses only one word to represent “love,” but in the Greek, about four different words are used. This helps to clarify what kind of love is being referred to. When you say for example, “I love my wife,” in the Greek, it’s a different word from when you say, “I love my country.” Then when you say, “I love football,” that’s another Greek word.

The same goes for the word, “knowledge”; there’re at least four different words translated “knowledge” in Greek. Our opening verse says, “According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue” (2 Peter 1:3). “Knowledge” here isn’t dealing with general knowledge or the knowledge of science (Greek: “Gnosis”) but with absolute knowledge that comes through revelation and relationship; the Greek word is “epignosis.”

2 Peter 1:2 says, “Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord.” This means, if you want to multiply grace and peace in your life, you’ve got to know more about God and Jesus Christ. You have to have the “epignosis” of God and of Jesus our Lord. “Epignosis” is the precise and accurate knowledge of God that you gain through revelation and meditation.

This type of knowledge isn’t just something you acquire from reading history books; it’s a revelation that’s granted you. A part of it is already given to you in the scriptures, while the rest of it is through your relationship with God, and fellowship with the Holy Spirit; all in consistency with the Word. Hallelujah!

Prayer...
Dear Father, I thank you for the enlightenment I receive from studying the Scriptures. Through consistent study and meditation on your Word, I increase in knowledge; grace and peace are multiplied in my life. I have dominion in every situation, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

FURTHER STUDY:

An hypocrite with [his] mouth destroyeth his neighbour: but through knowledge shall the just be delivered.

Ephesians 1:17
That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him:
:18 The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know what is the hope of his calling, and what the riches of the glory of his inheritance in the saints,

Why bring up this other account na?


It OK to be pained by the truth, but this childishness is not nice o.

OtemSapien:
You just talk without asking for knowledge. I'm not a God-fighter because I am a part of God Almighty who created Yahweh, Allah and all other gods. God Almighty don't fight human beings or gods whom he creates, but some gods like Yahweh, Allah, Mazda, Moloch, etc have fought human beings in the past, but currently they are cast in a spiritual prison. The effect of their subjection to spiritual prison is what you are seeing today.

1. People are becoming enlightened everyday.
2. People are losing their religions day by day.
3. People are challenging every form of ordinance they were subjected to by religious gods like Yahweh, Allah.

This is a positive sign that Africa and Nigeria is developing.

I Am Otem.

How many times did Abraham tithe and whom did he tithe to?

And what did he tithe?

We have threads on this since 2010.you need links?

OtemSapien:
Pastor Kun ko, pastor Aguero ni.
Otem, the god of wisdom has said it now 'tithers will reduce as knowledge and enlightenment increases'. This is a thummim and not a urim, so nothing can stop a thummim from getting fulfilled, take note.

You'd be irrelevant as Kun is today. Soon, you'd deactivate your account.


You can't fight God and win.

kevoh:
Oshay nice one the hustle for mugus and magas is over real then. You can help him by adding memes to this thread which is your usual trademark.

No be today my Posts begin dey give you seizures abi?

Why did you leave your other moniker?

betterABIAstate:
There are errors in your post, the tithe of feast is also called the "first fruit harvest ", you are going give your first fruit to the Lord and its more than 10%

The levitical tithing is done by only Levites, when they pay the tithe of tithes.

The tithe the poor is done once in 3years.

All these forms of tithing involved Levites and none of our pastors are levites.

Jesus didn't practise all these form of tithing, neither did his apostles, they are all feasts celebrated by the Jew. The core tithing is tithing of the poor, it is the mean form of tithing.

From your post, you can't say Jesus didn't Tithe...forhe was a Jew and kept the law.

Also, tithing predates the law. OP was just setting the records straight into contrast to daddy freeze.


But I admire your response. You went for the message.. Unlike Rita them who'd want to derail threads with their painment.

OtemSapien:
Yes, protithing thread came as a result of anti-tithing threads. It's necessary to bring about balance, but in the long run, tithers will reduce. Who knows that I wouldn't be a tither anymore. As at December 2015, I was still a tither.

PastorKun said this since 2012. Others long before you did. They have all swallow their words...Bitterly


Should I quote him? Today he's not just a massive liar, his words fell bare to the floor. Tither will never reduce.



Dont be deceived. There's life outside nairaland.

IamtherealRita:
You are the same person, all those that capitalised on tithe and offering issue fall on you

Don't have HBP ooooooooooooo




Check out posts before now. Don't be olodoish na

plainbibletruth:
What is laughable is when some, like you, take portions of the Bible and feel they can use it to support tithing in the church.

That is what is insult to God and stupid .

Whatever the number of types of tithes in Israel or before Israel, the issue today is: DO THEY APPLY TO THE CHURCH TODAY?

Diverting attention away from the CORE issue and now focusing on number of tithes or how they were done smacks of DECEIT.

There is NO priesthood of Melchizedek in the New Testa­ment. What we have in the New Testament is THE PRIESTHOOD OF JESUS CHRIST. Jesus's priesthood SUPERSEDES any and ALL the other Priesthoods prior to it including that of Melchizedek.

The New Testament has prescribed how to further the Gospel; and it NOT through tithes.

There is NO WHERE in the New Testament where the Christian is asked to tithe ACCORDING to Abraham's: No where!

Just like there's no where in the new testament Christians are asked to wed in church, or do child dedication or celebrate birthdays.. Etc


Why I didn't bother explaining others you wrote is because no be today I don begin school you, even after using other monikers

GavelSlam:
You guys can attempt to dribble as if you are Lionel Messi but the truth remains not a single pastor in Nigeria practices the "3 forms of tithing".

I keep asking how is tithing done in Israel the birthplace of tithing it can we know it better than them?

Tithing is before Israel was ever born.

petra1:
TRUTH PAINETH!!!

Eyaaaa... I'm sure the OP didn't know these truths will pain you this much

A Higher Life in Christ - Friday, November 10th

Pastor Chris

And this is the record, that God hath given to us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. He that hath the Son hath life; and he that hath not the Son of God hath not life (1 John 5:11-12)

There’s a higher life in Christ; a life that’s higher and greater than the ordinary human life, sickness, disease, failure, and death. That’s the life we’ve received in Christ. In John 10:10 (AMPC), Jesus said, “The thief comes only in order to steal and kill and destroy. I came that they may have and enjoy life, and have it in abundance (to the full, till it overflows).”

God’s purpose is for you to walk in the supernatural every day. That’s the Christian life; it’s walking in the glory of God; reigning and exercising dominion over circumstances: “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). This is God’s dream for His children.

The reason many live as ordinary men, instead of living the transcendent life in Christ is their ignorance of the Word: “They know not, neither will they understand; they walk on in darkness…” (Psalm 82:5). Imagine an eagle that grows up amongst chickens, and never learned to fly. It’ll live the life of chickens, yet it’s an eagle, with powerful wings to fly.

That’s the way some Christians are; they don’t know they have power over sickness, power over crises, power over the devil, and circumstances of life. Therefore, they live as victims. The Bible says you’re seated together with Christ far above all principalities and power (Ephesians 1:21 and Ephesians 2:6).
Satan isn’t a factor. You’re superior to him and his demons.
Now that you’re born again, you’re born into a life of glory and excellence. Become conscious of who you are in Christ. It’s not possible for you to fail or be defeated in life, for the Greater One lives in you: “Ye are of God, little children, and have overcome them: because greater is he that is in you, than he that is in the world” (1 John 4:4). This is the higher life in Christ.

Prayer...
My life is replete with the goodness of God, and the manifestations of the glories of the Kingdom. I’m alive to God—spirit, soul, and body. Therefore, sickness and disease have no place in my body, because the Spirit of God lives in me, and He rids my system of everything inconsistent with the divine life, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

When [men] are cast down, then thou shalt say, [There is] lifting up; and he shall save the humble person.

Proverbs 4:20-22 NLT
My child, pay attention to what I say. Listen carefully to my words. 21 Don't lose sight of them. Let them penetrate deep into your heart, 22 for they bring life to those who find them, and healing to their whole body.

1 Timothy 4:15
Meditate upon these things; give thyself wholly to them; that thy profiting may appear to all.

Victory By The Word - Thursday, November 9th

Pastor Chris

Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom; teaching and admonishing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with grace in your hearts to the Lord (Colossians 3:16).

James 1:18 says, “Of his own will begat he us with the word of truth, that we should be a kind of firstfruits of his creatures.” 1 Peter 1:23 says, “Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.” Being a Christian, you must study and meditate on the Word, because your life came from the Word of God; you’re an offspring of the Word; therefore, you can only be sustained by the Word. Stay in the Word, for everything in life is sustained by its source.

Not to stay in the Word is to starve your spirit of the material it needs to survive, grow, and function normally. The development of your spirit is to the degree of how much of God’s Word you ingest. The more of God’s Word you receive into your spirit, the more your spirit is educated and built for victory and success.

Success in life isn’t dependent on the number of degrees you bagged in college; it’s in the amount of God’s Word you know and put to work! This is why you must know and live by the Word. Build your faith with the Word. The world today is plagued with all kinds of crises, economic problems, etc., and many are confused, wondering when the crises will end. But if you have the Word in you, you have nothing to fear.

God’s Word is alive and full of power; that means it’s active, operative and effective. Hence, it doesn’t matter what the case is, if you’d meditate on the Word, it’ll produce in you and for you the desired results. “This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have good success” (Joshua 1:. The Word in your spirit and in your mouth will make you a victor for life.

Prayer...
Dear heavenly Father, I’m fulfilled, knowing my roots are in your Word. Therefore, your Word is my daily meditation, morning, noon, and night. I walk in health, prosperity, victory, and success continually, because my faith is in the Word. Blessed be God!

Further Study :

Isaiah 55:10-13
For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater: 11 So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper [in the thing] whereto I sent it. 12 For ye shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace: the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap [their] hands. 13 Instead of the thorn shall come up the fir tree, and instead of the brier shall come up the myrtle tree: and it shall be to the LORD for a name, for an everlasting sign [that] shall not be cut off.

Psalm 119:11
Thy word have I hid in mine heart, that I might not sin against thee.

2 Timothy 2:15
Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

iboboyswag:
Madam/Oga I beg to disagree on all counts!

The tithes and offerings are used by the church and by direct effect the pastor. Most pastors with the exception of a few have their ministries as private businesses. They are sole signatories or major signatories to all the church accounts and they have absolute authority over the affairs of that ministry. There is no check and balance and nobody is going to vet what he or she does with the church money(the tithes inclusive).

The manner most pastors run their business stinks to the high heavens, it negates the foundation of every teaching of Jesus, Paul and the other apostles. The leadership of the Christian faith in Nigeria, now competes with hiphop artist on who wears the most blinks and who can splurge the most money on vanities and because they see themselves as demi-gods, not to be questioned or queried by "lesser men", they are quick to attribute and divert all concerns and questions to being faithless, possessed by the devil, enemy of the church or end time apostles etc.

To further enlighten you, the challenge is not just in the way the tithe is used but also in the way it is clamoured for. We have pastors threatening fire and brimstone to their congregants, using the false doctrine you posted up there( Malachi 3: to deceive and to cause deceit. Point of correction, that verse you and all the tithe seeking pastorprenuers are quick to quote was not referring to the people but the keepers of the temple themselves.

Like it is now commonly said, read your bible, it doesn't bite!

You whine and complain about TITHING, meanwhile people are pumping billions of dollars into TERRORISM . Who has bewitched you

Samsimple:
OFFERING is just like buy purewater you try.
TITHE is just like take part of my salary to buy jet

offering is used mostly to beautify and pay other expenses in the church like rent, nepa bills, wages for workers and so on.. But tithe let me not go into details

lalasticlala this front page material oohh

Who lied to you?

deflover:
Look no one will come for the pastors if they lived modest lives.
If they don't show off money while thier members are hungry.
The issues with this banter is many like you are not seeing that the act is not on tithe but the life styles of suppose Christian leaders
You accused the pope of gluttony and the birth of Protestant was formed
Yet same leaders now act the same way the roman Catholic church was accused
Yes you tithe
Yes you give
No one is asking you not to
But deep down your heart you care what the money is used for that's why you stated for the work of the ministry.
So if its for the work of ministry
Why are pastors splashing us with private jet and all to show off
There is nothing wrong with the toys of life
But its wickedness when your members are not doing so well but all you care about is to show off from the little they give for the work
Yes they will say the pastors are rich already
They are into big businesses
Apostle Paul said
You can eat food sacrificed to idols but be careful that the next person doesn't loose thier faith cos of your actions.
Let our pastors be modest
The tithe is not the issue here but the way they live

So, your problem is that Pastor's are immodest, suggesting they flex with tithe monies, abi?


Ok. But do you know that even if pastors are dead broke, you'd still complain about Tithing?

Meanwhile, tithes DOES NOT go to the pastor's pockets. I wonder who lied to y'all this severely
