I have asked this question to almost every igbo restructuring agitator, once u ask them they start beating around the bush...

I ask u this right now what does south east want to restructure u can't still answer.

If you must know the only thing keeping south east in Nigeria is not resources or anything, it's just the fact that we the true Nigerians know other regions are seating back watching u fool around once the east goes west will want to go too.

Apart from that, if not for that reason Nigeria would have let u hv ur BIAFRA
Your question is of no importance. You don't get it?
Because what ever answer I give now will lead to an unending argument.

Again I ask why should you be worried about SE if you have something to offer.

All these restructuring black mail won't work.

Ask those Biafrans shouting and using lack of restructuring as excuse for breakup to tell you what they want to restructure in the south east and watch them go mute
It is only natural that when you have all the resources or more to offer, you would want to take control of it.(Brexit)
So if you had more to offer, you wouldn't be worried about what SE wana restructure. You would be a frontier of their exit!

For your information David's rule was only within the boarders of Israel and even within he still had rebels trying to overthrow him.
But what about Jesus?
Well he's having well over 8,700,000 people in different geographical locations with various skin colour and languages throughout the earth today!

©They have vowed never to raise up weapons against anyone no matter what! Matthew 26:52

©They are zealously preaching and industriously teaching from house to house and door to door! Matthew 10:11-13

©They have LOVE among themselves that even critics often testify to it! John 13:34-34

©They have the same line of thought regarding standard! John 17:17, 20-23

If all these is happening after almost 2,000 years that Jesus walked this earth but you are saying he's just a fictional character i wonder if you can prove the existence of any ruler in human history whose words still takes effect thousands of years in his absence! Act 1:8 smiley

Exactly. When you study the genealogy of Jesus very well, you would see how very confused they were and how they tried so heard to link him up to the kingship of David just to be qualified the name Messiah. But it didn't work out well grin

Since Jesus is called the "word of God" how was God able to say this while Jesus was on earth

Mathew 17:5
5 While he was still speaking, behold, a shining cloud [[b]composed of light] overshadowed them, and a voice from the cloud said, This is My Son, My Beloved, with Whom I am [and [c]have always been] delighted. Listen to Him!(A)

Mathew 3:17
17 And behold, a voice from heaven said, This is My Son, My Beloved, in Whom I delight!(C)


Was word part of God from the beginning or a sperate entity on its own... and how did it became flesh is it that God said "Be and it is" and word became flesh Jesus or was it a sperate entity different from the Father at beginning and later became Flesh...

What I mean is that is Jesus one of the numerous "word from God" which means God can speak independent of Jesus or "Word of God" which means God is dependent on Jesus to speak...

The fact is that the refinery and gas plant is in Orlu zone, there are no ifs and buts, fact is fact. Every imolite has a stake in Owerri, we in imo state are not parochial, I have never seen anybody from Orlu complain about Owerri, it is always from someone who doesn’t have a stake in imo state. Now they are spreading misinformation that it is not one town that is developed in imo state, when developing has cut across multiple LGA.

How can u be more afflicted than the affected. We see Owerri as our home as well and Orlu have ruled the state for the longest. Please let’s continue discussion about IMO state without this constant interjection.

The Messiah is Bible's main topic!
So everything you read from Genesis to Revelation is about Jesus Christ of Nazareth, what causes your confusion is he is fulfilling his Messianic role gradually not at one particular time.
For your information the angel who often represent JEHOVAH when leading the Israelites through the wilderness is Jesus.
His birth, ministry, death and resurrection is just parts of his Messianic role, he will later come and destroy all rebellious humans. But before then there must be a global campaign and warning that's why he must serve as a Wonderful Counselor during which time he will prove to be a Mighty God his sacrificial death gave him the right to possess all obedient mankind and replacing Adam to become our Everlasting Father and lastly when he has completed his Messianic role and made PEACE reign throughout the earth he will be crowned as the Prince of Peace! Isaiah 9:6-7

So don't think Jesus has fulfilled all his Messianic role the first time he came to earth.

Today he is gathering obedient mankind together as ONE BIG and HAPPY FAMILY OF PEACE LOVING WORSHIPERS but only the meek ones can grasp this! Psalms 37:9-11 compare to Matthew 5:5

So whether you accept this truth or not God is using Jesus to accomplish so many things, it's either you believe (trust) in him or PERISH! John 3:16

Meanwhile i'll give you a homework, go out there and find an organized people worshiping God in PEACE where Racism or Politics have no influence on them! Revelations 6:3-4 smiley
Another long one.
Simple question. Did biblical Jesus meet the requirements of the Messiah?
Christianity EtcRe: Jesus Agreed With A Jew On His Concept Of God.. by Jman24(m): 7:50am On Mar 15, 2021
GeneralDae:
Isaiah 53 is about suffering messaiah bearing the sin of the nation isreal. There were two types of servants used interchangeably in Isaiah, Israel and the Israel's messaiah representing Isreal. Isaiah 49v1-6 for example is about a person, so also Isaiah 53.
Stop confusing yourself. It's simple English.
Take time and study for yourself. Isaiah 53:1-12
is talking about a suffering servant Israel in the Messianic era.

Maybe a lot of mistranslation made you divide the servant into two as far as Isaiah 53 is concerned grin
Christianity EtcRe: Jesus Agreed With A Jew On His Concept Of God.. by Jman24(m): 7:28am On Mar 15, 2021
MaxInDHouse:
Why not quote the Bible book of Luke 4:16-21 compare to Isaiah 61:1-2, if anyone wants to continue arguing afterwards then it's better to leave and allow them fetch followers for themselves.
Isaiah's prophecies said a lot about Jesus of Nazareth which the Jews knew and witnessed the fulfilment in the first century. Isaiah 9:6
The only reason why they rejected and hated him with passion is their selfish nepotistic ambition, they wanted the Messiah to come fight all powerful nations and hand over world dominance to them since the scriptures correlates the Messiah's powerful rule with that of King David and they believe the Messiah will be a hundred times more powerful than David after all David referred to him as Lord {Psalms 110:1} but Jesus came preaching about forgiveness and praying for one's enemies {Matthew 5:43-48} that's why they hated him intensely.
Moreover Jesus arrived when Romans were colonizing the Jews so it's like a slap on their face that their long awaited Messiah now arrived only to start preaching instead of conquering all the nations most especially Rome! Daniel 2:44
That's why the Jewish nation rejected Jesus otherwise they would have been so proud of him if he danced to their tune as they wanted to make him King and support him in fighting their enemies! John 6:15
God bless you and may you have PEACE! smiley
All this long write up. Let's go back to origin.
Did biblical Jesus really fulfill the requirements of
a Messiah?
Christianity EtcRe: Jesus Agreed With A Jew On His Concept Of God.. by Jman24(m): 10:39pm On Mar 14, 2021
GeneralDae:
The passover story as well as Isaiah 53 points to Jesus. Heck the entire story of isreal points to Jesus.

The idea of original sin was not a teaching of Jesus. Although original sin(in my opinion)is a reasonable doctrine, if you think about it critically.

Jesus also prescribed thesame method for sin as 2nd Chronicle 7v14. Jesus sacrifice for sin on the cross is related to passover deliverance of the isrealites from exile due to sin. More like collective community sin of the nation. It is not human sacrifice to God but rather more like the selfless sacrifice of a General who loves his nation or people.
It's very clear that you are comfortable with teachings of funny fellows. Just study for yourself. Isaiah 53 is in no way referring to a person but a nation. That nation most at times is used in the singular.. he was this he was that.

It's all about the suffering servant "Israel". Isaiah mentioned it severally before chapter 53..

I don't understand where you manufactured this other conjecture from grin

Kobojunkie:
To read what? Which concept came first? I did explain that in reference to Jesus Christ's dying necessary for the forgiveness of sins, that is in fact the Truth according to Jesus Christ. But as far as some arbitrary reference to "sacrifice" , I am not certain where it comes from or in.

I don't randomly examine doctrines - there are thousands out there. Hence the reason why I need specifics on what the OP is in fact referring to.
And I'm saying same biblical Jesus rightly pointed out who you should pray to directly for your forgiveness of your sin before other recreated stories of blood for atonement.
Before blood for atonement ..he clearly stated
1. From Op's write up you just need to repent to be forgiven
2. Biblical Jesus strictly gave an instruction on prayer (Lord's) prayer; forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us;
this is a prayer directly to almighty God

So my argument with you is not on discrepancies or establishing a truth.. but on which concept came first
Please be open minded when you read

1. Why do you keep insisting on mentioning the Romans? Who are the Romans at this time? Nigerian Christians or what? undecided

2. And the Bible references you provided all have to do with Old Covenant teachings, whereas the OP focused on the teachings of Jesus Christ.

I am sure you are trying to help but I think you are instead complicating this one. All I want to know is what the OP keeps referring to in his article. I believe he instead refers to a particular teaching he calls "sacrifice and grace" teaching
I think you are afraid to read
We are reacting on Op's write up. And I chose sacrifice for example. The least you could do is weigh up which concept came first since it is a common thing to find discrepancies in the good book.

[quote author=Kobojunkie post=99883064]Romans? What Romans?
As for the blood of Jesus Christ being shed for the forgiveness of our sins, Jesus Christ Himself said it is so.


I'm not here to argue on discrepancies which is a common thing in the Bible. From Op's write up there is no concept of sacrifice as a necessity for forgiveness. I also pointed out that same confused Romans still sold the idea of sacrifice.
So which came first? So from this answer you could deduce a recreated story. Not holding brief for the original concept though

See highlights of basic teachings for forgiveness of sins(no human sacrifice what so ever) just by repenting

Jerem 36:3
Daniel 4:27

Ezekiel 18:1-4

In fact, I had originally opened this to read the explanation to the Title " Why Jesus Christ Isn’t A Sacrifice For Sins!"
I am here reading this guy trying to use Jesus Christ's parables to explain what he refers to as "grace and sacrifice" and I am like, why use the parables which were given by Jesus Christ to confuse the already confused. undecided
It's just simple English language.
No "abracadabra" from pastor

Look at item 8. Carefully, it summarizes all you need to know that you just need to repent of your wrong doing to be forgiven.

Verse 31b ; I tell you the truth, tax collectors & prostitutes will get into the kingdom before you
Verse 32 for John came and showed you the right way but you didn't believe him, while tax collectors & prostitutes did. And even when you saw this, you refused to REPENT( this is a clause that qualifies verse 31)

But same confused Romans brought in concept of sacrifice to be held unto and guaranteed the kingdom of God, even when biblical Jesus himself said prostitute will enter the kingdom by repenting.(events before the recreated stories of death of a human as a necessity for forgiveness of sins)

So it's simple GES 101. there is no concept of sacrifice here (whether animal or human). It could only have been recreated
