chinedumo: The word "bible" does not have to be used

it is what the Bible represents that matters

You dont expect the Apostles to be using the book of acts when they are yet to live it out

You have just responded to only one out of my many questions. Please respond to all to enable me conclude. Thanks.

@ Chinedumo
1. You said Jesus used the “Bible”. Please show us the word “Bible” in the Bible.
2. You said the apostles used the Bible; cite the portion of the Bible for us, please.
3. You said “Bible” means books. You are right, But can you educate us on how the word “Bible” came about, I mean, who named that collection of books “Bible”?
4. “Don’t assume I celebrate”. Ok, I’m sorry. Please, tell us why you don’t celebrate Christmas?
5. “When did this happen?” In Matt 4:18-22, Jesus called the first 4 Apostles (Peter, Andrew, James and John) to follow him. Later, Jesus added 8 more, on different occasions, making them 12 (See Matt 10: 1-4).
6. You said Jesus belonged to a Church organization. Are you serious about this?
7. “He taught on any day the synagogue held”. Can you show us this from the Bible?
8. “everything does not have to be recorded the events of 30-33 years were all not recorded”. I am very happy you accepted the fact that everything that Jesus did and taught are not recorded. But why do you fault any teachings of the Catholic Church not found (expressly) in the Bible? If “everything” were not recorded (John 21:25), where can the unwritten records be found?
9. “The name is church”. For your knowledge sake, Jesus did not belong nor attend any church. He only prepared ground for the formation of the church. He left the formation of the church itself to the apostles, with Peter as the leader/head. Read Matthew 16:13-19. But for emphasis, "And I also say to you that you are Peter, and upon this rock I will build My church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven; and whatsoever thou shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven; and whatsoever thou shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven" (Matt 16: 18-19).
Know it today that the apostles started the Church after the death of Christ. Please, read this beautiful dialogue between Jesus and Peter found in John 21:15-19, which I will tag, “Jesus handover note to Peter”. Read Matthew 10:1-42 for content of the handover note.
10. “you hand over simply to the one you love and trust”. You are right. But where were the children of Mary at this mournful moment of their mother? Please, enlighten us.
11. “Don’t assume I celebrated”. My apology, once more. Am I now right to say, you don’t even believe in Jesus because you neither celebrate Christmas nor Easter?
12. “Mary did not prompt Jesus. she prompted the servants to obey Jesus a friend serves as encouragement to your ministry”. You lied here. Mary PROMPTED Jesus to provide wine and she DIRECTED the servants to obey Jesus’ instructions (John 2: 1-11). Mary PROMPTED Jesus in vs 3, “And when they wanted wine, the mother of Jesus said unto him (Jesus), they have no wine” and Mary DIRECTED the servants to obey Jesus’ instructions in vs 5. Note critically What Jesus said to Mary’s request in vs 4, “Woman…mine hour has not yet come”. If this was the first recorded miracle performed by Jesus (vs 11), can you please enlighten us how MARY came to KNOW that Jesus has the POWER to provide the wine(miraculously)?

I rest my case for now. Please, look at my own responses and reply to my questions again. It is very important that we understand ourselves. I will be back.
Meanwhile, assimilate chukwudi44 answers below because it will form part of my answers to this thread:
“So because the word bible means "books" that is enough reason to conclude the apostles used the bible? FYI the bible did not exist until about 300 yrs after the death of Jesus. Prior to the fourth century CE, the books of the scriptures existed as separate scriptures with no generally agreed canon. It was only in the fourth century @ the synod of hippo and Council of Carthage was the biblical canon decided.
Furthermore Jesus did not attend any church as the Christian church was only born on Pentecost day. Jewish synagogues which he attended are not churches.”

Thank you.

Fxwarrior: Good Morning guys and welcome to another beautiful day. I intend to sell EU at 1.2980 but I don't know if I will be around by then.My question is do I place a limit order or a stop order. What is the diference between them.I need someone in the house to enlighten me. Thanks.

OK. Since you intend to sell, you will place a "Sell Stop" order, which means continue to sell when price gets here. This is because the current price (1.3130) is higher and will be selling before it gets to your intended sell position.

In short:
- "Sell Stop" means continue to sell in a selling/falling market.
- "Buy Stop" means continue to Buy in a buying/rising market.
- "Sell Limit" means start selling when a buying market rises to this point.
- "Buy limit" means start buying when a selling market falls to this point.

Hope you understand.

May the pips be with you.

OP
You tried in bringing out these. However,I want you to sincerely answer my questions below:

1. Did Jesus use the "Bible"? If Jesus did not use the "Bible", why do you believe in the "Bible"?
2. Did the apostles use the "Bible" during their ministries? If no, why do you accept the "Bible" as God's word?
3. Is the word "Bible" in the Bible? If it is not there, who gave the name "Bible"?
4. Is the word "Christmas" in the Bible? If no, why do you celebrate "Christmas"?
5. Why did the apostles of Jesus increased from 4 to 12?
6. Did Jesus belong to any "Church" organisation? If no, why are you a member of/attend a "Church"?
7. Did Jesus go to the Synagogue to teach on "Sundays" or on "Saturdays"?
8. Where was Jesus between the ages 12 and 30? Why are these crucial historical periods not recorded in the "Bible"?
9. What was the name of the "Church" Jesus formed?
10.If Mary had other children, why did Jesus handover the care of Mary to the "disciple who Jesus loved" and not to Jesus' other brothers?
11. Before I forget, today is "Easter" Monday. Let me wish you a happy "Easter". Why did you celebrate "Easter" when it is not in the "Bible"?.
12. If you believe Mary had no special power from God, why did Mary prompt Jesus to provide wine during the Marriage in Cana knowing fully well Jesus had no winepress or money to buy wine?

The essence of these questions is to educate us that organisations evolve with time, and the "Church"/"Christianity" is not an exception. Shouting this or that is not in the "Bible" and so it is a false teaching/doctrine of man is a wrong perception when you know that the word "Bible" which you use as your book of reference is not even in the 'Bible'.

Finally, I will say work your salvation with trembling. Be doer of the word and not an academic of the word.

May the peace of the risen Lord be with you.

Which economy, eh? I don't think it is Nigeria's economy. How can our economy grow when our political leaders are the richest in the world?
