For more than 20 years since I began learning to follow The Way of The Lord, it has been well and weller and wellerler with me up till yesterday. My prayers are answered even before I think to pray.

Gbagbaboski shimarima is absolutely filthy and a Vanity You Ain't talking to God or rather you are talking and HE IS NEVER GONNA HEAR YOU.

Lol, your experience does not change the word of God. Those who have received the baptism of the holy ghost know it's not fake. I definitely know what I received. If you like, keep talking down on it. The difference will show.
If I may ask, have you ever seen the manifestation of spiritual gifts in your life?

The gospel when translated from the Greek means "the news about a kingdom or the exploits of a king". The gospel to believers is the news about the kingdom of God, or what God has done in Christ.

Mark 16:15-18
[15]And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.
[16]He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.
[17]And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;
[18]They shall take up serpents; and if they drink any deadly thing, it shall not hurt them; they shall lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover.

The gospel itself is supernatural. It's is the demonstration of the spirit and the power of God.

1 Corinthians 2:4-5
[4]And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power:
[5]That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.

So what exactly is the gospel?
1 Corinthians 15:3-4
[3]For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures;
[4]And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:

The true gospel is the message of the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus. No extra thing added. No motivational speaking or scary stories intended to persuade. It is the message of God's love.

When the gospel is preached, the holy spirit convinces people of the truth of the gospel. Whoever now believes becomes born again instantly. The spirit of God begins to dwell in him forever.

Ephesians 1:13
[13]In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise

Like you said "unknown to to a natural man" but you gbababosh shinai is very well known to every reasonable natural man exactly as I have been replicating here. It is not hidden at all.

Well known as? If you like, call speaking in tongues gibberish, you're the one missing out. The bible clearly says your mind does not understand what you say I'm tongues. Trying to make sense of it in the natural realm is useless. The key thing is God understands. "He who speaks in tongues speaketh not unto men but unto God"

Dtruthspeaker:
This is Something Else and not yabadaba jigijigi.

This is the Highest Praying that goes beyond words and language and you saw how Paul described it, "SIGHS AND GROANINGS!"

And these are Not words or language.

Groanings are part of prayer. What else trancends human language if not what is unknown to to a natural man and common to all christians regardless of nationality. The problem people have with praying in the spirit is it sounds foolish to the mind. Same way the message of a man dying for sins and resurrecting sounds like nonsense to a natural man.

Dtruthspeaker:
Acts 2 clearly says passers by of different nations heard what the disciples were saying.

The question is when praying would the disciples be doing so in a foreign language? No

They must speak their own Natural Language exactly as an Igbo man must pray in Igbo, his native tongue.

So how is conceivable that an Igbo man would pray in German tongue or Spanish, such that a German and Spanish will hear at the same time as they are passing by?

Acts 2 clearly tells us that the foreigners understood what the disciples were saying in Jewish language even though they were not Jewish.



When Christ enters you, you become like Christ and a Changed man and even your speech too changes exactly as what said about the apostles "how is it that this unlearned and ignorant men speak so powerfully?"

So they were fishermen before Christ they were Changed Men (Fishers of Men) When Christ, Through the Holy Spirit came into them.

No shigishiga haba involved just Natural Living phenomenon we have all seen.

1 Corinthians 14:2,4
[2]For he that speaketh in an unknown tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God: for no man understandeth him; howbeit in the spirit he speaketh mysteries.

Note the "No man understands him.." This means it has to be a language no natural man can understand but God understands.

LoL, the pentecost was a feast for jews. Every disciple in the upper room that day were Jews. They only came from other countries to celebrate pentecost. Just like a Nigerian with German citizenship coming home to celebrate Christmas.

The outsiders assumed they were drunk because they couldn't understand what they spoke in tongues initially. They only understood when they prophesied in a natural language. To prove what I'm saying, check throughout the book of acts and you'll see that new converts usually spoke in tongues and prophesied

That's why there is the gift of interpretation of tongues. Tongues are not a human language. It's a supernatural mode of communication peculiar to believers. New tongues in the Greek is from "Kainos Glossolalia" Tongues of a new kind, never seen before. German, Spanish, or Hebrew are not new tongues. More explanation about tongues are in 1 Cor 12 and chapter 14.

Dtruthspeaker:
I did not lay a question, I am saying that your belief in the yagahigi people do and say in the name "speaking in tongues" is Fake, chanting and PROOF OF A CHURCH ESTABLISHED BY SATAN.

Speaking in tongues Always means Natural dialect and language and not gagagoogoo baby sounds of communication

It is Satan's Pastors who teach these Lies!

Proof from the scriptures please?
Mark 16:17
[17]And these signs shall follow them that believe; In my name shall they cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues;

"New" is from the Greek word "Kainos" i.e of a new kind. Speaking in tongues can't be in a known human dialect since it is new.

1 Corinthians 14:2,4
[2]For he that speaketh in an unknown tongue speaketh not unto men, but unto God: for no man understandeth him; howbeit in the spirit he speaketh mysteries.
[4]He that speaketh in an unknown tongue edifieth himself; but he that prophesieth edifieth the church.

Isaiah 28:11
[11]For with stammering lips and another tongue will he speak to this people.

What happened in the book of acts was speaking in tongues and prophesy. The crowd around them could only understand because they prophesied Ina known language after speaking in tongues.

DISCERNING SPIRITUAL THINGS

1 Corinthians 2:14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.

Years back, I and a friend went to minister and he gave a word of knowledge and I wondered how and when he received it, so I questioned him.

His reply to me which I will never forget is; You don't reason spiritual things, but receive spiritual things. Back then I wondered but I know better now.

God is not in the mental realm, you can't figure him out with your mind. Spiritual things does not make sense to the natural man. For example you can't use your mind to understand the new birth.

That's why whatever God tells you, or promises you, stop figuring out how he will do it, that's up to him. Just believe and receive.

Facts. The things of the spirit are foolishness to a natural man. OP ignore those saying something else below your post.

This guy loves Christianity so much he spends day and night researching. Maybe God will use you eventually.

Jesus was born through a woman. Women were present in his ministries. He saved a woman from getting stoned to death. The first witness to his resurrection was a woman. Gods view of women is the same as men. Both equal in his sight.

So what’s the science in conceiving without fertilization?

What’s the science of walking on water?

Let's talk on WhatsApp

Workch:
i use also think that the Bible is not against science until I realized that the Bible said plants were created before the sun.

The Bible said someone was born without fertilization, what’s the science there?

Lol, Moses wrote the Genesis story. He was communicating spiritual truths through natural illustrations. Can we talk privately?

Workch:
It’s no surprise that I am an atheist, but one thing people don’t know about me is that I was a Christian for 28years. Yes 28years.

I was not just a Christian, I had full membership in my church and was a member of the choir. I was born into a Christian home, we had morning and evening devotions everyday as a child. My dad personally tried indoctrinating us a lot, we read the Bible every single day and then he explains but seriously even as a child a lot of the stories didn’t add up but I was scared that I was being blasphemous.
I remember a day my dad was teaching us about Noah’s flood and then we got to that point where god said he’s using the rainbow as a sign to remind humanity that he would never destroy earth with flood. Even as a 9years old, that part didn’t make sense to me, because I see it in the news frequently of flood destroying farms, properties and even killing people. I asked my dad and he didn’t give me a reasonable explanation.
As a teenager, I started teaching Sunday school to kids in church, I taught them that god never change but in my mind, I wasn’t convinced because while reading the Bible, there many instances of god changing his mind and even regretting his decisions. I always think about it that the god of Old Testament seems different from what is portrayed in the New Testament, something changed. I kept a lot of things to myself because people around were so religious and would quickly rebuke me for such reasoning.
As time goes on, I joined the choir, I learn drums and keyboard, I sang choir ministrations and even wrote songs for my church choir. All these while, it wasn’t clear, I was just scared to come out fully.

I got admitted into the university to study biochemistry. Being someone that is very inquisitive, I started asking so many questions in respect to the relationship between living organisms. After having background knowledge in genetics, molecular biology and biological metabolism, it was clear that every living thing are the same basically. At this point, I didn’t even understand the theory of evolution properly but I had seen the a fairly clear picture. I had to go back and then study the theory of evolution properly (took weeks), because the impression I had from secondary school was that an ape turned into human. Our biology teachers, just like every other biology teachers in Nigerian schools, were so bad at teaching the theory of evolution. Seems like a lot of them didn’t even understand it.

Fast forward, I graduated, I still believed god existed. since after I properly studied the theory of evolution, I started holding the notion that God presided over evolution and the Bible is somehow consistent with the theory of evolution. This idea was born out of the sheer fear of not wanting to sound blasphemous to my beloved ones. After I graduated, I started reading wide, I didn’t like physics in school but I started reading physics (specifically quantum and astrophysics), I discovered about Big Bang theory, theory of relativity, string theory etc, it took a lot of time before I could grasp them but when I did, it became clearer that the Bible is not consistent with anything in reality.

It was difficult for me to accept this truth because I didn’t want to be seen as a blasphemer, not until I had the opportunity to run my masters degree abroad in clinical biochemistry. I met with lot of renown and brilliant people in the field of biochemistry. They were realistic in their beliefs and will not believe anything unless you can back it with evidence. I became bolder with time, we shared ideas as I studied. Th society gives everyone liberty and I was very free to come out clean with my realistic traits. A lot of my lecturers didn’t believe in god. I became a full fledged atheist in Europe by the time I finished my program.


Today, I have done several works and I still keep reading to find the truth, so far I haven’t seen anything consistent with the Christian God. I am back in Nigeria and trust me, I don’t have lot of friends for this reason. I have just two friends and they are both agnostic ( I made them agnostic because they are open minded and also brilliant Phd holders in biochemistry).

@op, the bible is not against science. As a Christian, I don't get my science from the bible. The focus of the bible is God's dealings with man. i.e it is spiritual. Science is just a single phase of existence.

Secondly, I just to have hard questions about the bible until I later got explanations. What I thought were contradictions weren't.

enthronedbyGod1:
It definitely could be blotted out , cos there's nothing like eternal security , it's all a ploy by the devil to lead believers astray and unto damnation.
That's why we should work out our salvation with fear and trembling.

Philippians 2:12-13
[12]Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.
[13]For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of his good pleasure.

Work out your salvation means let your salvation be shown outwardly. It doesn't mean work for your salvation.

Thanks for your reply. I think I kinda understand this. So this kinda means that ALL Abraham knew throughout his lifetime about God was less than a fraction of Whom GOD is?

Exactly. People in the old testament knew aspects of God, God as the jehovah rapha, Nissi, etc. We have the full expression of God in christ

MacMkboy:
Joh 1:18 [EMTV] No one has seen God at any time. The only begotten Son, who is in the bosom of the Father, He has revealed Him.



Who did Moses speak to on the Mount of Sinai and who did Abraham entertain by the Oaks of Mamre and who rested at the cool of the day with Adam and Eve? I'm puzzled and I need help with these questions.

No one has the accurate revelation of who the father is except Jesus who is in the father and has the father in him

God surely exists. The mistake many christians make is to assume believing in Jesus will automatically grant you wealth. Sure God can supply your needs but you need to trust him. Why not pray and ask God to give you a clear direction in life? He will.

It's been a long time here. It's nice to see the thread is still active.
