I heard her treatment included blood transfusion and she rejected it based on faith.

A US judge ruled against something like this recently and forced the young man to take blood to save his life.

Maybe our judges should consider such in extreme cases like this.

It's sad. May her soul rest in peace.

Being RELIGIOUS and being SPIRITUAL are two entirely different things. Religion is meant to be a vehicle that conveys one to the place of spirituality because humans are spirits encased within sandy flesh and their spirit nature can never see fulfillment until there's a connection to their spiritual essence or Creator- God.

NOW, God is a spirit and to connect with Him a person needs his own spirit regenerated to get tuned to God's own spiritual frequency thereafter a line of communication is opened between that person and God.

UNTIL any practitioner of any religion gets to that level of personal and revelational relationship characterised by two way communication, such a person would remain deceived man made doctrines.

Rhapsody of Realities by Pastor Chris. Fri Dec 26 2025

THE LORD JESUS AFFIRMED HIS DEITY

Then came the Jews round about him, and said unto him, How long dost thou make us to doubt? If thou be the Christ, tell us plainly. Jesus answered them, I told you, and ye believed not… (John 10:24-25).

There’re those who tell us Christians that even Jesus never said He was the Christ or the Son of God; therefore, why are we claiming what He never said about Himself? Well, anyone who thinks like that has never really read the Bible. Take for example our theme scripture above; the Jews came to Jesus and said, “How long are you going to keep us doubting; if you’re the Christ, tell us plainly.”

The Lord’s answer was very simple, clear and direct. He said to them, “I already told you but you refused to believe.” Then He added, “The works that I do in my Father's name, they bear witness.” In other words, besides me telling you that I am the Christ, the miracles, the works that I do in my Father’s Name are further proof that I am the Christ; they testify to who I am.

The Master minced no words in affirming His deity. He made it clear that He was the Christ. He even emphasized it further in the ensuing verses 27-30, saying, “…My sheep hear my voice…And I give unto them eternal life; …I and my Father are one.” This is amazing. You have to be God to talk like this.
Only God gives eternal life, and Jesus is the true God and eternal life; that’s why He can give it: “And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know him that is true, and we are in him that is true, even in his Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life” (1 John 5:20). Hallelujah!

Then He also said, “I and my Father are one” (John 10:30). What a declaration. The Jews, because they understood the gravity of that statement, took up stones to stone Him to death, saying, “How can you, a mere man, dare to make yourself equal with God?” That’s because they didn’t know who He was. He declared that He was the Christ. He declared that He could give eternal life to men. He declared that He was the Son of God, which means God in human flesh. He said these things Himself.

In John 5:26 He said, “For as the Father hath life in himself; so hath he given to the Son to have life in himself.” Now you can understand why He gives eternal life to those who believe in Him. He has the authority. He has life as the Father has life. He’s one and co-equal with God. So, when you preach Jesus, when you talk about Him, when you believe in Him, you're not dealing with an ordinary man. Titus 2:13 calls Him the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ. He’s Himself God. Hallelujah!


Prayer / Confession
Dear Father, I thank you for the revelation of Jesus Christ as God in human form, the Word made flesh. I believe and declare that He is the Christ, the true God and eternal life. I walk in the boldness and authority of His person, power, name and lordship, proclaiming His reign and divinity to the ends of the earth. Through me, His truth prevails and His glory is revealed, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Dtruthspeaker:
Now you are proven the accusations True by your forgery and editing of my post

Dtruthspeaker:
Fallacy of circular reasoning and red herring. Thus, you are talking rubbish and have no valid counter to give

paxonel:
wrong deduction

Deeper life, MFM and others have their reasons not to celebrate Christmas. This reasons are not because they are not Christians.
But for Jehovah witnesses, the reason is clearly because they are not Christians because they trickly reject Jesus Christ which Deeper life, MFM and others have not done.

If one do not properly analyse your doctrines, they will never know that by your tricks, you reject Jesus Christ.

Many of you don't even know that!
You are just floating in your kingdom halls.

Watchtower is another religion entirely from Christianity.

We also have similar others like Ekankaar, Amok, etc. All these religions make reference to Jesus Christ in the bible too, like Jehovah witnesses.
Even Muslims do

paxonel:
what is the kingdom of God that Jesus Christ thought?

You people read bible to look at patterns thereby neglecting purpose

Kingsnairaland:
Janos you Don come

You don't know I am a pastor
You don't know I speak in tongues
I am flilled with the holy spirit

That why I say what I say out of experience

Sorry you have not gotten this physical evidence in you in jw

Oga, study your Bible more & pray for understanding.
You don't seem that understand Revelation 1:1 let alone verse 8.

Kingsnairaland:
The meaning of revelations book in Bible is actually mean

The revelation of jesus

It means God wants to reveal who jesus is

Every thing in revelation is about jesus

Just like every thing on the Bible is about jesus
So in revelation jesus is saying I am the almighty

Kingsnairaland:
Yes or do you find it hard to read the Bible


Because the holy spirit of God told me he sent a strong delusion to you to believe lies about jesus since you refuse to believe the truth

And Paul said the same thing that really woke me up...
Paul said
That God will send strong delusion upon them, Because they did not love the truth, about who jesus is

I show you where jesus said he is the almighty

Yet you are still confused

Kingsnairaland:
Read this until you see that Jesus is almighty

Revelation 1:8,
JESUS here declares,
"I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End, says the Lord God, who is and who was and who is to come
the Almighty

Kingsnairaland:
Any place jesus speak it with red ink in most Bible just like below

So let me show you who is the first and the last speaking again

Revelation 1

17, And when I saw Him, I fell at His feet as dead. But He laid His right hand on me,
saying
to me, “Do not be afraid; I am the First and the Last.
18, I am He who lives, and was dead, and behold, I am alive forevermore.......


Note
Jesus said I am the first and last
Many times in revelation so it him speaking all this while

Kingsnairaland:
Let me mock you with this question below
because God told me he sent you a strong delusion

So the almighty God why did he chose to live inside jesus since you claim jesus is not almighty

Kingsnairaland:
GOD told me he sent a strong delusion to you to never understand who jesus is because you are not permitted to have eternal life

Kingsnairaland:
Since u can't see where Bible said God purchased us with his own blood

Truthseeker10:
Baba learn from the screenshot below.
Where does your reference above show that these bibles are perverted bibles?

Kingsnairaland:
Tell me what your perverted bible said in
Colossians 2:9

Kingsnairaland:
You don't need it if it is not in your bible because you won't believe it

MaxInDHouse:
Change like how?
That's what Jehovah's Witnesses believe nah!😟

Dtruthspeaker:
He explained that he felt it was pagan since it appeared to have coincided with a pagan festival or something.

That is a reasonable and understandable ground. But I don't think the reason supplied by JW is reasonable.

paxonel:
His argument that Christmas is pagan celebration does not follow.

I mean, we all know about Christ that he was born into this world as a child. So if any Christian based on this belief want to celebrate his birth, why not?

No Christian who celebrates Jesus birth worldwide has ever mentioned any pagan god, or did Kumuyi see any such Christian?

Dtruthspeaker:
Did The Commandments prohibit joy and celebration? No. So why would He Speak on it?

paxonel:
But there are records in the bible that the first century Christians celebrated their birthday and marriages?

Is birthday and marriage celebrations wrong?

paxonel:
Christianity as a religion was established by Jesus Christ 2000 years ago when Christ died and resurrected, that's why we celebrate Christmas today.

.

Dtruthspeaker:
But Jehovah witnesses, they carry bible pretending to believe in Christ, but they are not. Rather, Jesus isn't part of the God head according to them.
It follows that the dead and resurrection of Jesus Christ profit them nothing. This explains why they do not celebrate Christmas.

Please beware of them.

Dtruthspeaker:
1) Christianity does not have pagan origins.
https://www.nairaland.com/8326278/christianity-does-not-pagan-roots#133866110

2) There is no record of in the bible that the first Christians peed and pood, played and joked, so do you say it did not happen?

Dtruthspeaker:
Jws have so perverted the bible both in word and in doctrine that no reasonable person would ever call them Christians. And this is in addition to their strange and weird behaviour and appearance which gives everybody a creepy feeling

tctrills:
This remains a foolish question because I don't know the meaning of gennao, and I didn't bring it up. You brought up the word, so please explain yourself. I shouldn't be doing your explanation for you; you are not my child.
So what is gennao, and how does it relate to our discussion, or are you just trying to distract us?
Over to you, explain yourself and why you feel gennao is so important to this discussion.

Cocky antichrist... I knew go on a rant talking about unity. Unity of demons and deceivers, united against Christ Jesus and his glory and honor.

✝ Acts 4:12

"Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved."

This is what Christ Jesus was talking about when he said, they will be witnesses of Him.

There is no other name given among men for salvation not even the name Jehovah/Yahweh/Elohim. Christ Jesus is the only appointed and chosen name in which men can be saved.
✝ Acts 16:31

"And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house."



This are all examples of what Jesus meant in Acts 1:8. Bearing witness that He is __✝ John 14:6

"Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me."

Paul didn't tell this beautiful soul to believe in Jehovah or believe in Yahweh for them to be saved but believe in Him(Jesus Christ), who is the live giver and sustainer. Paul, Peter, John and James didn't go about telling people about Jehovah or Yahweh, but about Jesus and his sacrifice and his resurrection from the dead.

I don't care if the unity and peace among yourselves is flowing like a river... If Christ Jesus is not glorified and exalted in your midst, the unity is a unity and peace of a grave yard.

Emusan:
Are you a Christian?

Prettychild:
Just browse list of cult groups in the world on google

That claim is not true

Why would "independent minded critical thinker" be influenced by the claim of another individual?

tctrills:
Even when they explain to you like a baby, you still cant understand.

To answer your questions, mutual exclusivity is not an English or language concept.

It has applied to everything since création. It is older than any language you know. It simply means 2 things that cant be true at the same time.

In Hausa land, if you throw a coin, you cant get head and tail at the same time same in Yoruba land and all languages.

I hope you understand now.

To your next set of questions

I don't know the meaning of Greek gennao.
