Biodun556:

Allah! There is no God but He,

the Living, the Self-subsisting, the Eternal.

No slumber can seize Him, nor sleep.
All things in heaven and earth are His.

Who could intercede in His presence without His permission?

He knows what appears in front of and behind His creatures.

Nor can they encompass any knowledge of Him except what he wills.

His throne extends over the heavens and the earth,

and He feels no fatigue in guarding and preserving them,

for He is the Highest and Most Exalted.

Quran 2 verse 255

Enugupikin:
What exactly do ladies mean by a God-fearing man?

It has always been vague to me

siofra:
Maybe I'm young and foolish, but I really don't mind being a second wife (or third wife or whatever) but I'll not be a first wife to a man with other wives.

And there are terms and conditions.

He must be super rich (like Ned Nwoko rich)

I will not have children for him (my mind may change)

I'll have my own apartment and I'll not take his name.

If he's Muslim, I'll not convert to his religion.

Most x tain fools, hypocrites and real terrorists will still come here to say trash.

They have serious problem at respecting people's culture, way of life and stance.

A X tian can make fun of her religion by acting as a cporn star nun and absolutely nothing will happen. Muslims don't tolerate that and if you find that hard to understand, Fucƙ up first publicly with YOUR REAL IDENTITY, and not all these social media bluffing and see how you're made to learn your lessons - THE HARD WAY.

Kobojunkie:
Jesus Christ said,

□ everyone must be born-again
□ Except a man be born-again, he cannot enter info the Kingdom of God
□ You must be born-again --- born of water And born of Spirit
...
□ Those who stand faithful until the end will be saved

Any idea of "faith" that does not comply with all that Jesus Christ said, will never grant either the first or second Salvation that is Jesus Christ.

Kobojunkie:
Where exactly it written that Jesus Christ preached to the dead? Open your eyes when you read so you do not simply regurgitate the lies you have previously been fed.

2. Again, where is this written so we can open our eyes to what is in fact stated apart from the lies lies have previously been fed by liars who pretend to know God?

3. If you half understood what it means to say, "God is just," you would understand why insinuating that God wavers on His own Word means same as declaring Him a liar..

Kobojunkie:
God pours out His mercy/kindness on every living being every single day is what you are also told in scripture. So stop trying to use it to somehow undermine His decree. Jesus Christ made clear that except a man be born-again He can't enter into the Kingdom of God; no chance of either Heaven or Hell.

This is not true. Abraham did not have the Law yet he was made righteous in the sight of God. Why? Because he believed God. And today is looked upon as "the father of faith."

Joseph did not have the Law yet He knew that commiting adultery with Potiphar's wife is great wickedness.

The law is not of faith. Trying to keep the law in order to be righteous before God (after God gave His own Son to make us righteous!) is being FAITHLESS. There is no salvation here as "We are saved by Grace through faith..."

Try to obey the law in order to get right with God and be cut off from Christ: "For if you are trying to make yourselves right with God by keeping the law you have been cut off from Christ! You have fallen away from God's grace." Galatians 5:4

The law was given that the offense might abound- that sin should increase! Let's stop preaching this horrid message of attaining godliness by human effort at doing. This is the same strategy that Satan used on Eve in the garden of Eden when he told her that she would be godly (be like God) if she did something by human effort. The result is sin having dominion and death reigning-

"For sin shall not have dominion over you for you are not under law but under Grace." Romans 6:14.

The Law cannot get rid of lawlessnessin the life of anybody. It can only point out what is wrong and commands all who are under it to obey. Because the arm of flesh (human effort at obedience) will fail, all who are depending on the law to make them godly stand cursed- Galatians 3:10.

"Those who depend on obeying the Law live under a curse. For the scripture says, “Whoever does not always obey everything that is written in the book of the Law is under God's curse!”

Contrary to your statement, trying to keep the Law in order to be godly is what breeds lawlessness!

The law was not given for us to be godly by. It was given to show up the default nature of man: SINFUL AND WICKED.It was given so that sin will increase and so we will see our need for God's saving grace: Romans 5:20-

"The Law was introduced in order to increase wrongdoing; but where sin increased, God's grace increased much more."

See the TLB- "The Ten Commandments were given so that all could see the extent of their failure to obey God’s laws. But the more we see our sinfulness, the more we see God’s abounding grace forgiving us."

But Satan's ministers behind many pulpits are actively preaching human effort at keeping the law as the means by which a person can be godly aka be like God.This is the same strategy that Satan used on Eve in the garden of Eden when he told her that she would be godly (be like God) if she did something by human effort.

This is the only way to escape death and lawlessness- Titus 2:14-

"He gave Himself for us to set us free from every kind of lawlessness and to purify for Himself a people who are truly his, who are eager to do good."

One is either under law or under Grace. Either righteous by works of the law or righteous by faith in Christ. No mixture aka "neither cold nor hot". And righteousness by keeping the law is impossible- "For no one can ever be made right with God by doing what the law commands. The law simply shows us how sinful we are." Romans 3:20.

Some people are deceiving themselves that they can obey even an inch of the Law and be good by using human effort aka the arm of flesh that will fail. Such have no idea that the reason why we are not committing particular sins is because we have not been tempted beyond what we can bear in those areas. The potential to commit heinous crimes is in everybody. God sees this potential and how favourable circumstances can make some people think that some sins are beneath them (like Peter did before he denied Christ) and that they can obey the law in order to be godly by human effort. This is the height of pride and foolishness- to trust in the arm of flesh that God's Word says will fail. Never trust yourself. Trust God to restrain you from being tempted beyond what you can bear. 1 Corinthians 10;13.

This is the Word of the Lord concerning we who are in Christ- no longer trying to keep the law in order to be righteous in God's sight:

"And there is still much more to say of His unfailing love for us! For through the blood of Jesus we have heard the powerful declaration, “You are now righteous in My sight.” And because of the sacrifice of Jesus, you will never experience the wrath of God."

Those who are trying to keep the law in order to be righteous in God's sight will face His full wrath. Why be here?

God's gift of righteousness to us in Christ is not so that we should go on sinning sprees. This is what stumps many religious Pharisee-types. We who believe hate sin, just like God our Father. But He has opened our eyes to see that all human striving at obedience will fail. We no longer depend on our own human effort at doing right like Peter who knew 100% that he would not deny Jesus and even boasted in his own power to not sin but ended up sinning profusely. By grace, we see that only Christ can save from sins and cause us to live right.

Only when we receive God's abundance of Grace and His gift of righteousness to us in Christ do we get to live in triumph over sin and death through Jesus Christ - Romans 5:17-

"For the sin of this one man, Adam, caused death to rule over many. But even greater is God’s wonderful grace and His gift of righteousness, for all who receive it will live in triumph over sin and death through this one Man, Jesus Christ."

Many Sinners Want To Stop Sinning But The Ten Commandments Cannot Save. Christ Saves.

A Bible Study By Olamide Obire



Many of us think that most believers and even non-believers who are sinning want to continue to wallow in sin. We think they don't want out. I submit to you that many of these "great sinners" feel bad after each act of sin and are trying hard to find a way out of their sins and addictions but cannot! You see, "good people" are not the only ones who want to live a righteous life. Many "bad people" who are locked down by acts of sin also desire to live right but they cannot. The reason for their inability to do so is evident in Romans 6:14:

"For sin shall not have dominion over you, for you are not under law but under grace."

Sin has dominion over the one who is trying to obey the law in order to be righteous. But somehow many preachers have this verse backwards, preaching that the way to reign over sin is by obeying the letter that kills. Because of this false doctrine, the "bad people" try harder to be obedient but the result is more sin.

Just imagine a pastor preaching a whole sermon on the Ten Commandments and asking: "Which one are you guilty of? You have to stop sinning or else there will be consequences!" He is killing his congregation softly! The letter kills.

For believers who are struggling with particular sins, your situation isn't unique. Paul of the New Testament faced the same dilemma. In Romans 7:18-19, Paul says:

"18 And I know that nothing good lives in me, that is, in my sinful nature. I want to do what is right, but I can’t. 19 I want to do what is good, but I don’t. I don’t want to do what is wrong, but I do it anyway."

This is a born-again and Spirit-filled Paul speaking here. We who are in Christ have the same solution to this problem as Paul did in verse 25: "Thanks be to God, who delivers me through Jesus Christ our Lord!"

Christ delivers us from this inability to do the good we want to do and makes sure that we live right! How, you may ask? The very next chapter (Romans 8:1-2) shows us how:

"Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus, because through Christ Jesus the law of the Spirit who gives life has set you free from the law of sin and death."

Believers, as the righteousness of God in Christ, when you sin, there is no condemnation for you. Our Heavenly Father still sees you as righteous; not because of what you do or don't do but because of what Christ has done.

2 Corinthians 5:21 says "For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us that we might become the righteousness of God in Him."

With this gift of righteousness comes no condemnation. It is our Saviour's "Neither do I condemn you " that makes us "go and sin no more." Understand that a person who does not sin does not need the gift of no condemnation. The woman caught in adultery received this gift because she was under condemnation. This gift is for those who have no righteousness of their own - the sole qualification for being in Christ. It is not for those who can keep the law and are righteous by themselves in some areas of life.

With Christ as your righteousness, you will not continue to live in sin, not because of your own human effort at being good but because the Holy Spirit transforms us to "the image of the glory of the Lord, from glory to glory" as we look to Christ for our righteousness (2 Corinthians 3:18.) Nothing to do with our efforts at suppressing those sinful desires. The arm of flesh will fail. All to do with Christ's saving power. He saves from sins. See Matthew 1:21 - "She will bear a Son; and you shall call His name Jesus, for He will save His people from their sins.”

The kingdom of God isn't human logic Sin has dominion over those who are insisting on keeping the Ten Commandments and doing good deeds in order to be righteous before God. But Christ saves from sins. See Matthew 1:21 - "She will bear a Son; and you shall call His name Jesus, for He will save His people from their sins.”

Romans 3:20 says "For no one can ever be made right with God by doing what the law commands. The law simply shows us how sinful we are." Galatians 5:4 says: "For if you are trying to make yourselves right with God by keeping the law, you have been cut off from Christ! You have fallen away from God’s grace."

Those who are trying to make themselves right with God by keeping the law reject the blood of Jesus that was shed to make us righteous for their own righteousnesses that proceeds from works of the law. When such break just one law, asking for forgiveness in Jesus' name becomes an effort in futility. Without the shedding of blood, there is no remission of sins. Law and grace don't mix. You can't depend on Jesus and the Ten Commandments for righteousness at the same time. This is the "neither hot nor cold" that Christ spoke of in Revelation 3.

Believers, there is only one Good News and it is based on righteousness by faith, not obedience to the law of sin and death. In fact, Paul places the only curse in the new testament (doubly!) on anyone preaching a different gospel in Galatians 1:8-9:

"Let God’s curse fall on anyone, including us or even an angel from heaven, who preaches a different kind of Good News than the one we preached to you. 9 I say again what we have said before: If anyone preaches any other Good News than the one you welcomed, let that person be cursed."

God's grace is not a licence to sin. It is the power of God to salvation, including salvation from sin. Would you really give your own child a gift that has a slight chance of killing him or give him the liberty to be sinful and rebellious? How much more our Abba Father who gave us His Son in whom "we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace 8 which He made to abound toward us in all wisdom and prudence," Ephesians 1:7-8 here tells us God's grace is showered on us with wisdom and prudence, not just anyhow that we could misuse it.

Those who enjoy wallowing in sin and say that their sinning is okay because they are under Grace are under something else, definitely not Grace. Yes there are some who try to replace the grace of our Lord with sheer license to sin. These people are not under grace but under the control of the devil. Paul spoke of these people in Jude 1 and described them as "spots in our love feasts," greedy and rebellious. These people are not of Christ and their behaviour should not make pastors and leaders want to try to “help God” by introducing the law to keep New Covenant believers in check.

See Paul's analogy of law and grace in Galatians 4:21-31. Sarah (GRACE) did not need Hagar (LAW) to raise Isaac (The Church; you and I in Christ). Grace is enough. Cast out the bondwoman and her son!

Pastors and leaders, there's no need to help the Holy Spirit to do His work of transforming believers to the image of the glory of the Lord by putting them under the law again. This is death. Plus it only gives sin dominion over the sinner. 2 Corinthians 3:18 says the Spirit of the Lord transforms us to the image of His glory, not the Law, or you. No human is that good a transformer.

Point the people to God's Grace (unveil the love of Christ) and not the letter that kills. According to Titus 2, Grace (our Saviour Jesus Christ Himself) is the one that teaches us to shun ungodliness and worldly lusts, gave His life to free us from every kind of sin, to cleanse us, and to make us His very own people, totally committed to doing good deeds. Grace is our Teacher, not you or I.

Preach Grace- undeserved, unearned, unmerited favour; Grace will do everything else.

Believe Right and you will Live Right.

Geovanni412:
Pastors and Christians should not approbate and reprobate.

It is written in the Bible that a man can take more than one wife

Specifically, in the book of Exodus 21:10 (NIV), it is written, "If he marries another woman, he must not deprive the first one of her food, clothing and marital rights."

Also, in 2 Samuel 12:8 (NIV), God stated that he gave king David his master’s wives as well as Israel and Judah

Furthermore in Deut 21: 15-17 (NIV), God stated that a man should not deprive the first born of his lineage who comes from the second wife that he does not love of his right to inherit a double portion of the man's wealth.

The verse (Deut 21:15-17) reads as follows: "If a man has two wives, and he loves one but not the other, and both bear him sons but the firstborn is the son of the wife he does not love, when he wills his property to his sons, he must not give the rights of the firstborn to the son of the wife he loves in preference to his actual firstborn, the son of the wife he does not love. He must acknowledge the son of his unloved wife as the firstborn by giving him a double share of all he has. That son is the first sign of his father’s strength. The right of the firstborn belongs to him."

The only reason for a man to have only one wife is because it is easier to manage and the Bible tells us that a man who cannot take care of his family is worse than an infidel (1 Timothy 5 v8)

Polygamy should be the exclusive preserve of wealthy men. If you have less than 5 million naira per year after expenses, you have no business talking about polygamy.

Now, the only people in the Bible that were instructed to have one wife were Bishops and Deacons (1 Timothy 3:2 and 1 Timothy 3:12)

All of us cannot be Bishops neither can we be Deacons.

LordReed:


LMAO!. Are you you living in a cave? Homosexuals have been around long before any of the periods you are talking about. Besides who told you homosexuals are flocking around? The population of homosexuals has always been comparatively low and will always be comparatively low.

You religious beliefs should remain your private matter, stop trying to use your religion to dictate how other people should live. Homosexuals are not harming you or anybody so keep your religion to yourself.

MuttleyLaff:
Permissible and/or acceptable homosexuality, is bereft of spiritual pollution, defilement and contamination and of course, homosexuality is sexual and spiritual. Isn't heterosexuality a sexual and spiritual thing ni? Same sex attraction couples, just want to love and be loved back in return. There is nothing insensitive in wanting to give and receive love.

Why would anyone see an act of love, the love between two innocent, harmless, law abiding, as evil?

"²⁹The reply of Jesus was,
"You are in error, through ignorance of the Scriptures and of the power of God.
³⁰For in the Resurrection, men neither marry nor are women given in marriage,
but they are like angels in Heaven”
- Matt 22:29-30

God is married to you, married to your wife, married to your grandpa, married to your grandma, married to your daughters, married to your sons, married to me, married to my missus, married to my entire family, married to et cetera. The point being made here, is that, God's concept of marriage, is not hinged on gender or sex, lmso. We all, each and everyone of us, according to Genesis 1:26-28, are, as human beings (i.e. man, men and women, gay or not gay) made in the image of God (i.e. Elohim or the Godhead) and after the likeness of God (i.e. Elohim or the Godhead)

There is nothing at all, called an everlasting covenant, arising from the union between a man and woman, because marriage is not eternal, lmso
At the other end of this side of eternity, there no longer, be cases of married or given in marriage lmso. What is exists and lasts forever is not marriage, but is love and/or relationship, lmso..

Marriage is temporary, relationship is eternal. Love is supreme, love is stronger than hate and so love always win over hate, lmso.

What evil, is there in the relationship of love of two easy going, ordinary consenting adults, minding their own businesses enjoying a life long caring, faithful, committed, truthful, honest, loving each other, lasting that's a lifetime life-long and loyal same-sex relationship, that is not causing damage or harm to another person, not betraying of another person, or even, not cheating on another person, and not being harmful to an object or neighbour, who love each other, enjoy each other’s company, are mutually respectful to each other, mutually supportive to each other, and all that and more, sometimes without sex necessarily being the leading or most important thing for them?

What exactly is it, thats wicked, in the way two homosexual God believing, that have accepted Yahshua Ha Mashiach aka Jesus Christ as their Lord and Saviour, consenting adults, are enjoying having a lifetime until death do part them, loving each other, and being in a faithful, kind, caring, committed monogamous homosexual relationship, with no evil or harm done to each other, children, neighbour and environment, but displaying the fruit of the Holy Spirit, as is expected to happen from any other children of God to do, hmm?

ebubeson:
What you may hear from many Christians today, may be "I carry fire", "No one can touch God's anointed", "Can you pray in Tongues for 6 hours?", "I am highly favoured", "I carry grace", "I am for signs and wonders" etc. But if you tell same Christians, please do not collect bribe, do not reduce your age for job, do not register that you came early to work when you came late, do not follow sugar daddy, do not bring comedians to God's pulpit for jesting, do not sing worldly music, do not dress worldly and seductively, do not have sex with your ex few days to your wedding, do not commit adultery, do not fornicate or commit sin, do not tell lies to progress, do not live with your boyfriend or girlfriend, do not go to herbalist, do not do exam malpractice at all e.t.c, they may tell you that you own is too much, and may even say you do church too much.

Please stand for righteousness as a Christian.
