If the truth is easy to comprehend why are do people attend different churches in search of dat same truth which u tink it easy to find
Certain times we ourself can't even recognize wat is a sin sef

But your very churches are themselves built on the doctrines and traditions of men, what Jesus Christ called lies, meant to deceive and blind those who attend them.

The truth is easy to comprehend, it is just that those who have darkness in them can't stand it.

There is nothing hidden about sin... God made it clear to us all what constitutes sin and what does not, and He calls for all to trust and obey His His commandments in this. However, the darkness rejects His truth at every corner.

FatherCHRISTMAS:
There just has to be another way and not constant suffering. As it is, I would mind to go through the black and diabolic way if possible. The fear of God in me seems to be too much of a burden at this point in time

So you do believe in God?

Have you considered walking in obedience to God's commandments as given by Jesus Christ Himself , at least to be sure that you are not the one in your own way?
I mean if you are already suffering so much at this point, what have you got to lose if you choose to try taking God at His Word and doing exactly as He commands beginning now. You never know, if you can get yourself to love God with alll your heart, mind, body and soul, doing all that He commands of you through Jesus Christ, maybe God Himself will answer you.

The question is for Muslim. Don't know why use guy have to comment with bad mind, aside religion we are Africa that have culture. A reasonable person will not come out with something that expose their body. Please let encourage modesty among our youth. African is loosing it already

A reasonable person will not come out with something that expose their body because you were made the police and judge of what is reasonable for everyone abi?

Encourage modesty among youths according to whose standard? Let me guess, yours, right?

Learn to mind your own business and your own body. The world does not revolve around you , not even during your "holy months"... get that into your head and you will enjoy life better both during and outside of your "holy month".

OGA IF SOMEONE GAVE U BISQUIT THAT IS HARMFULL TO UR HEALTH UNKNWNLY, ITS LEFT FOR YOU TO NO EAT IT. IF U EAT IT, THEN DNT BLAME ANYONE. EVEN GOD WILL NEVER PUNISH THE GIVER BECUS HE EXTENDED A GOOD GESTURE.

Ok, I hear you!

So where God come tell you say He will never punish the giver because he extended a good gesture?

I see why many will be shocked on judgement day. The devil is really having a field day with ur kind. Keep up the work! One day sm will tell us that he saw Jesus smoking Indian hemp, and another person will back it up with scriptures. And some simps will be swallow it Hook line and sinker. Very soon some one will tell us taking Cocaine is allowed and God permits it by turning the scripture upside down to suit ur mind.

Let's go back to the garden of Eden, God created all the good tree fruits but there was one in the same garden. U know the story. Why is that particular fruit tree bad? You see if u interprete the Bible using psychology, philosophy and wisdom of men, you will just be compounding and embolden urself indirectly to fight God in blinding ignorance.

You had beta pray that God should open ur eyes.

The problem with folks like you is even when the Truth of God is set before you, you simply ignore it so you can continue rambling about how you know better and how it has to be your way or hell for those who don't agree with you.

I made known to you, severally mind you, that Jesus Christ said instead that what defiles you cannot be ingested by you in any way of form yet you continue to harp about how someone who smokes or thinks smoking is not a sin has to cross paths with Hell. Na you be God now?

Akuruoulo:
Thats a simple logic

God had warned man so many times never to learn on his own understanding .I.e. your logic. So tell me exactly what you mean by suggesting that your logic is God's logic here?

I don't care for your logic but for God's Word in this and everything else so please show evidence that God backs your logic or accept say your logic no even come close to making sense where God dey!

U r just beating about, it is a pity.

Beating about what?

Kobojunkiee:
Jesus Christ Himself told you that it is not what you ingest/eat/drink that defiles your body but instead the wickedness you have stored up in your heart that defile your body.

If you yourself followed Jesus Christ, you would know and recognize this from my previous post but I am afraid what many of you do is try to look for ways around following Jesus Christ's actual teachings in most everything.

Fasting in holy month of Ramadan is not easy in lagos because of level of immorality among youths, I was working on the street yesterday, when I saw a lady in her early 20s wearing a net clothe that expose everypart of her br***t I was flagabasted because I don't think someone with functioning brain will do that, aside that I see some Igbo girl in my compand coming out with ordinary bra and tit, please how do we cope with the dressing of unbelievar in the holy month especially in our neighbor hood

She is minding her life and her body, why do you have a problem minding your own life and your own body? If,in your "holy month" your mind is still riddled with filth, why do you look to blaming others for that?

Are you one of those imb_eciles out there who think women are to blame when raped or harrassed?

Just cause it is your "holy month" don't mean the world has to stop for you, does it? Rather than hyper focus on what who is wearing, why not spend that time and energy working on acquiring greater level of control over your mind and eyes instead.

Christ had made us sit with Him far above every powers and principalities... what's your take on this mystery?

Did Jesus Christ speak to us of principalities and powers?

Goshen360:
Okay, here is it! I've always maintained that 'context' is everything in interpreting scriptures. Please, people of God, there's a great injustice to rightly dividing the word of truth going on in the body of Christ today and we MUST be very careful how we interpret. Two, God gave us his word AND he also told us how to interpret the word - NO SCRIPTURE IS OF PRIVATE INTERPRETATION. All scriptures agree, not split apart!

King James Bible (Cambridge Ed.)
And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven. - Matthew 23:9.

Please, my advice to everyone is, 'IF' KJV English is too difficult for you to grasp, kind use as many as possible translations you can - it's all free on the Internet. Second, the Spirit of God\truth must always guide our interpretation and also, we must endeavor or be diligent to find meanings to words where necessary and use such meaning in context.

Now, what is Christ's emphasis here in this context? Simply, the emphasis is THE FATHER, WHO IS IN HEAVEN. How do we know that as truth? It's by the phrase, 'FOR one is your Father'. It will be be best understood if the word, 'for' is translated 'BECAUSE' as translated in many translations here: http://bible.cc/matthew/23-9.htm

Holman Christian Standard Bible (©2009)
Do not call anyone on earth your father, because you have one Father, who is in heaven.

International Standard Version (©2012)
And don't call anyone on earth 'Father,' because you have only one Father, the one in heaven.

GOD'S WORD® Translation (©1995)
And don't call anyone on earth your father, because you have only one Father, and he is in heaven.

Again, to reveal that the emphasis of Christ's word is on the heavenly father. Some translations have the first 'father' using 'f' in uppercase\capital letter - 'F'. Hence, we can translate to be,

New Living Translation (©2007)
And don't address anyone here on earth as 'F ather,' for only God in heaven is your spiritual F ather.

International Standard Version (©2012)
And don't call anyone on earth 'F ather,' because you have only one F ather, the one in heaven.

Aramaic Bible in Plain English (©2010)
And you should not call yourselves “F ather”, in the earth, for one is your F ather who is in Heaven.

Weymouth New Testament
And call no one on earth your F ather, for One alone is your F ather--the Heavenly F ather.

Carefully observe the above translations, they all have the first use of 'father' with the 'f' in Capital letter or upper case - "F"ather. Then we are getting close to what Christ was saying. We can therefore proceed to find meaning to the word father as it relates to the EMPHASIS ON GOD.....because he says "BECAUSE or FOR ONE is your FATHER who is in heaven" .

First, Matthew 23:9 is opened on a concordance here: http://www.blueletterbible.org/Bible.cfm?b=Mat&c=23&v=9&t=KJV#conc/9
...and here: http://www.blueletterbible.org/lang/lexicon/lexicon.cfm?Strongs=G3962&t=KJV I opened the meanings as listed below:

1) generator or male ancestor
a) either the nearest ancestor: father of the corporeal nature, natural fathers, both parents
b) a more remote ancestor, the founder of a family or tribe, progenitor of a people, forefather: so Abraham is called, Jacob and David
1) fathers i.e. ancestors, forefathers, founders of a nation
c) one advanced in years, a senior

2) metaph.
a) the originator and transmitter of anything
1) the authors of a family or society of persons animated by the same spirit as himself

2) one who has infused his own spirit into others, who actuates and governs their minds
b) one who stands in a father's place and looks after another in a paternal way
c) a title of honour
1) teachers, as those to whom pupils trace back the knowledge and training they have received
2) the members of the Sanhedrin, whose prerogative it was by virtue of the wisdom and experience in which they excelled, to take charge of the interests of others

3) God is called the Father
a) of the stars, the heavenly luminaries, because he is their creator, upholder, ruler
b) of all rational and intelligent beings, whether angels or men, because he is their creator, preserver, guardian and protector

1) of spiritual beings and of all men
c) of Christians, as those who through Christ have been exalted to a specially close and intimate relationship with God, and who no longer dread him as a stern judge of sinners, but revere him as their reconciled and loving Father
d) the Father of Jesus Christ, as one whom God has united to himself in the closest bond of love and intimacy, made acquainted with his purposes, appointed to explain and carry out among men the plan of salvation, and made to share also in his own divine nature
1) by Jesus Christ himself
2) by the apostles

From the highlight in RED which deals with the word meaning as it relates to GOD as being called FATHER. The word father means, creator, upholder, ruler, preserver, guardian and protector. Hence, what is Christ saying since his emphasis in on the heavenly and one Father? Lemme make it plain inserting the meaning to replace the first use of the word father in context,

King James Bible (Cambridge Ed.)
And call no man your creator, upholder, ruler, preserver, guardian and protector upon the earth: for one is your creator, upholder, ruler, preserver, guardian and protector, which is in heaven. .

If Jesus said, "call NO MAN...upon the earth...". Our biological father will also fall into this category because he says NO MAN upon the earth while in Matthew 15:3-4, Jesus said,

King James Bible (Cambridge Ed.)
But he answered and said unto them, Why do ye also transgress the commandment of God by your tradition? For God commanded, saying, Honour thy father and mother: and, He that curseth father or mother, let him die the death.

How do you honour your father without calling him your father and that will contradict Matthew 23:9. Ephesians 6:2-3 says the same thing. Hence, Christ is saying NO EVEN YOUR BIOLOGICAL FATHER should be called our "creator, upholder, ruler, preserver, guardian and protector" BECAUSE (ONLY) ONE IS OUR "creator, upholder, ruler, preserver, guardian and protector", that is GOD, who is in heaven.

I am afraid all of this was not necessary. The Context here is the Kingdom of God of which Jesus Christ announced He was here to bring and His teachings are therefore of. And it is to this same Kingdom that His followers belong, not to this world and its definitions.

So when Jesus Christ declared to His followers that they not call any man father, He was obviously not speaking of this world's terms but of His Kingdom, which He made clear was not of this world.

So, Paul was most definitely in error when he submitted that some those who belonged to Jesus Christ wheree his children and he a father over them. That was a sin against God Himself, the one and only Father over all those who belong in the Kingdom of God.

Joagbaje:
We get into error when we look at things from only one perspective . We should look at scriptures from the contex of the writer. If not we will make God contradict himself

Jesus was called father, paul addressed himself as father and called parents fathers too.

1 Corinthians 4:15
After all, though you should have ten thousand teachers (guides to direct you) in Christ, yet you do not have many fathers. For I became your father in Christ Jesus through the glad tidings (the Gospel).

The context is the Kingdom of God of which the New Covenant, Jesus Christ belongs and preached on. Paul, n addressing those who belong in the Kingdom of God as his children, where he installs himself as father over them, committed a sin against God since Jesus Christ made it clear that God is the only Father to all those who belong to His Kingdom.

Goshen360:
^ ^ ^ You have tithe for me?....if explained Make una put una bible minds together.....scriptures don't contradict each other unless one cannot interpret correctly.

There are lies contained in scripture and for this reason God gave us laws, His Word, to help us find and deal with them.

Goshen360:
So you people cannot make out anything good out of the words of Christ and other scriptures? Are you guys saying scriptures contradict? This is how you people go about wrongly dividing the word. You guys better pick up bible concordance and understand each context. People are reading y'all on the Internet o.

Yes, there exists contradicting statements in scripture, as a matter of fact. Turning a blind eye to them will not make them go away.

Jesus Christ is the Truth of God, the Word of God, against which every opinion or idea of man, Satan, and even demons, contained within scripture need to be validated against.

[size=15pt]1 Corinthians 4:15
New International Version (NIV)


15 Even if you had ten thousand guardians in Christ, you do not have many fathers, for in Christ Jesus I became your father through the gospel.[/size]

Paul was wrong in his declaration there. In fact that claim is anti-God in all sense since Jesus Christ said, there is only one Father in the Kingdom of God, and God is the only Father to all who are of His Kingdom.

OkCornel:
Hebrews 13 v 10;

10 We have an altar from which those who minister at the tabernacle have no right to eat.


Thoughts and view points are welcome on this verse.

It would be helpful if this can be discussed in context of the Old Covenant where Priests were instructed on what they could do with offerings and sacrifices after the deed was done on the altar.

Thanks

elvhinzey:
Call a spade a spade; not a working tool. Simply say, "Tithes have been used to finance the project." Why the colloquial ambiguity

No reason... just that I already explained earlier that your "tithes and offerings" have nothing to do with "tithes and offerings" as instituted by God in the Bible, and I made the reason clear.
https://www.nairaland.com/6525480/deeper-life-160000-capacity-intl#101152807

elvhinzey:
Before, is it FG's funds or borrowed money you want it used to finance God's work.

Ok, so "God's economy" is what you call the people's money? And you call it God's work even though God never commanded any of His followers to build for Him monuments or structures in His name?

elvhinzey:
May God give us all, a deeper understanding to the mysteries of giving cheerfully and not giving under methodological coercion.

Oh! Giving cheerfully is not a mystery at all. Jesus Christ commanded it only He commands we give to our neighbors and not to businesses and organixations called churches. Jesus Christ even goes further to suggest that our giving be to those who are least among us - not those who already have lots. So?

elvhinzey:
See ba, if you have tasted of God's faithfulness in this life you'll be looking for ministries, helter skelter to bless, you'll be a dangerous giver by default.

I have tasted and continue to taste God's Faithfulness, and I hope to, in the next couple of days, get confirmation of God's righteousness too, only I don't think God asked anyone to look for "ministries to bless them since His blessings don't come from ministries but directly from His person.

elvhinzey:
God, himself, will open your eyes.
Make reproach no catch you o. Give! And again, i say, "GIVE!"

My eyes are not closed... they have already been opened by God Himself to see what you either refuse to see or have chosen to blind yourself to seeing.

Here's what i meant:

'No matter what we are encompassed with, economy wise - God's supernatural providence is unimaginable and far superior than world's economy.'

He's the ultimate provider.
I have since lost my tastebud for arguments.
Peradventure, one is on its way...

There is no question that God owns it all, however, you suggest here that this has to do with God's economy but clearly that is not the case since the above post reveals it is instead the churchians who will pay for it all from their own pocket and not God's.

In much similar manner, we know of investors funding businesses from their own pockets, of course they pocket the profits front their investments, something these churchians will never be able to do in their case.

So why is the one case of "God's economy" while the other is not when obviously God is not making any miracles happen in this and the funds are sourced off the backs of individuals ?

Againstlies:
my brother church are not the cause of your hardship in this country, go and blame buhari...

What has Buhari and the hardship he inflicts on you to do with me or any of what I have stated so far?

Akuruoulo:
AND DID GOD CALL IT A SIN ?

You tell me since you are the one who declared that it is not a sin to unintentionally harm or kill someone.

elvhinzey:
Those who know their God will continue to be strong and will keep doing exploits (emphasis mine). Daniel 11:32a
God's own economy defies all recession.

God's economy?
Jesus Christ came feeding thousands with just 5 loaves of bread and 2 fishes, and you believe God has the need for an economy?

Akuruoulo:
Ya bro. Thats why it can't be counted as sin

Really?
Where did Jesus Christ declare that if you "unknowingly" kill someone, it will not be counted as sin against you?

Myer:
I'm afraid I have to disagree with you on this one.
Jesus (the Word) is the Teacher. Likewuse the Holyspirit whom the Father sent to teach Christians all things.

Jesus Christ Himself declared that His very words are the Words of God Himself.

John 14 vs 10- 11- (ERV)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
10. Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me? The words that I say to you I do not speak on my own authority, but the Father who dwells in me does his works.
11. Believe me that I am in the Father and the Father is in me, or else believe on account of the works themselves.

And the Spirit of God is God Himself. So, it is not that Jesus Christ is a teacher separate from God and the Spirit of God but instead that it is the one and same Teacher here... God.

Jeremiah 31 vs 31-34 (ERV)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
31. “Behold, the days are coming, declares the Lord, when I will make a new covenant with the house of Israel and the house of Judah, 32. not like the covenant that I made with their fathers on the day when I took them by the hand to bring them out of the land of Egypt, my covenant that they broke, though I was their husband, declares the Lord.
33. For this is the covenant that I will make with the house of Israel after those days, declares the Lord: I will put my law within them, and I will write it on their hearts. And I will be their God, and they shall be my people.
34. And no longer shall each one teach his neighbor and each his brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord,’ for they shall all know me, from the least of them to the greatest, declares the Lord. For I will forgive their iniquity, and I will remember their sin no more.”

God is the one and only Teacher in the New Covenant, where Jesus Christ, the Word of God, is God's human avatar!

Myer:
It is also without a doubt that Jesus chose the 12 as apostles to lead (including teach) his flock. Peter and Paul being the apostles to the circumcised and uncircumcised respectively.

It may be without a doubt to you, but where exactly were in scripture they instituted as "leaders" or "teachers" over God's flock? Recall that the very same commandments that Jesus Christ gave to the first set - there were more than 12 of them by the time of His resurrection- is giving to all His followers?

Myer:
While these leaders are not meant to laud it over their followers, they do have a responsibility having followed and learned from Christ to teach his new followers.

I am afraid I do not know of them being installed "leaders" over His flock by Jesus Christ, or God Himself, both of whom deny this claim by the way.

As for the mission to teach the Gospel of the Kingdom, the very command that Jesus Christ gave to His apostles indicates no separation of concerns of the sort you suggest - circumcised and uncircumcised.

Matthew 28 vs 18- (ERV)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
18. So he came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth is given to me.
19. So go and make followers of all people in the world. Baptize them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.
20. Teach them to obey everything that I have told you to do. You can be sure that I will be with you always. I will continue with you until the end of time.”

He didn't send them to only teach to the circumcized... He sent them all into all the world.. to the jews and gentiles alike!

Akuruoulo:
This ur post makes no sense bro. U said UNKNOWINGLY.

Well, unknowingly implying you did not give the peanuts intending to kill him, that is!

Hatrik:
Are you saying that some part of the scripture is not the word of God??

I am afraid you are quite mistaken in your adoption of man's doctrines and traditions, which Jesus Christ told you were nothing but lies that heap curses on those who imbibe them.

The Bible/Scripture is not the word of God. Instead, Jesus Christ, who is not scripture, nor your bible, is the Word of God. Scripture is instead a composition of words of humans, Satan, demons, and yes, the Word of God Himself. So to declare that it is all of God is ludicrous.

Hatrik:
"All scripture is given by inspiration, to reprove, direct....." you really can not be selective of the scripture my friend.

In the book of Genesis, you are told that all knowledge, of good and of evil, belongs to God. What that means is that all knowledge, whether good or evil is inspired by God. So when you say Scripture is inspired by God, be sure to understand that it is not just scripture that is inspired by God but all knowledge that is inspired by God.

Hatrik:
In Genesis God created the woman for the man. God create orderliness not because even in heaven there is orderliness and level. Man submitting to his superior doesn't mean he is under meaning God no never! God is divine already but a woman submitting to her husband is scriptural dont be deceived with civilization and feministic ideology.

I am afraid you are mistaken. God created man and woman.. because God wanted to create man and woman. God did no create even the animals for man, He did not create the earth for man, nor the sun and moon for man, so why would you believe that God created the woman for man?

I think you should stop listening to your pastors and start listening instead to Jesus Christ. In Christ's Kingdom, there are no differences... no men or women, no jews or gentiles, no young or old, no black or white... none of that exists in the Kingdom of God. In His Kingdom, there is only one kind... Children of God and Jesus Christ is Head over them all.

Anyone supposing himself head over another is not a follower of Jesus Christ. In the Kingdom of God, Jesus Christ is the one and only Head/Master over all His followers.

Matthew 23 vs 10-12 (ERV)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
10. And you should not be called ‘Master.’ You have only one Master, the Messiah.
11. Whoever serves you like a servant is the greatest among you.
12. People who think they are better than others will be made humble. But people who humble themselves will be made great.

Anyone supposing he has a head separate from or in addition to Jesus Christ, is not a follower of Jesus Christ since as Jesus Christ declared, you cannot have two heads/Masters in His Kingdom.

Matthew 6 vs 24 (ERV)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
24. “You cannot serve two masters at the same time. You will hate one and love the other, or you will be loyal to one and not care about the other. You cannot serve God and Money[d] at the same time.

So the man and woman who claim to be in a relationship where the man is head and the woman submits to her need to seriously have their claim to be in relationship with Jesus Christ reexamined. Jesus Christ, the New Covenant, will not change His law for their sake and He will certainly not lower the standard He came to give us where His Kingdom is concerned.

Remember, it is Jesus Christ, and His teaching, the very Word of God, that you are called to put your trust in, not the doctrines of men that contradict His teachings/commandments.

John 14 vs 25-31 (ESV)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
15. “If you love me, you will keep my commandments.

Now, unless you are trying to somehow declare that Jesus Christ is a feminist, I say you try to keep that off of this so we can stick to discussing what is the Kingdom of God apart from the delusions and doctrines of men.

hoopernikao:
Focus on the text of Jesus I gave you in John 21:15-17.
I didn't write it, it's the scriptures. Jesus told Peter to rule, to shepherd to lord over his lambs.
You should be the one to explain if Jesus is lying or contradicting himself, or better still you will adjust your knowledge of the scriptures.
Feed implies to rule, the lord, to shepherd. What other explanation do you need.

Only you would know how the word "feed" implies "to rule over/lord over/shepherd" in this case, I don't see it at all.

Since a literal interpretation cannot be applied to the phrase it is best to first establish what figure of it it most likely belongs to.

"Feed my sheep" reads more like a metaphor and this spoken to a fisherman - Peter and some of the other disciples had been fishing that same morning- who had just been fed breakfast by the very same Jesus Christ.

Yes, only moments before, Jesus Christ "Fed His sheep" a breakfast of fish and bread which He, Jesus Christ prepared for them.

Ezekiel 34 vs 9-16 (ERV)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
9. [color=#000000] So, you shepherds, listen to the word of the Lord! [/color]
10. [color=#000000] The Lord God says, “I am against the shepherds. I will demand my sheep from them. I will fire them. They will not be my shepherds anymore. Then the shepherds will not be able to feed themselves, and I will save my flock from their mouths. Then my sheep will not be food for them.”[/color]
11. The Lord God says, “I myself will be their Shepherd. I will search for my sheep and take care of them.
12. If a shepherd is with his sheep when they begin to wander away, he will go searching for them. [color=#000000]In the same way I will search for my sheep. I will save them and bring them back from all the places where they were scattered on that dark and cloudy day. [/color]
13. [color=#000000] I will bring them back from those nations. I will gather them from those countries and bring them back to their own land. I will feed them on the mountains of Israel, by the streams, and in all the places where people live. [/color]
14. [color=#000000]I will lead them to grassy fields. They will go to the place high on the mountains of Israel and lie down on good ground and eat the grass. They will eat in rich grassland on the mountains of Israel.[/color]
15. Yes, I will feed my flock, and I will lead them to a place of rest.” This is what the Lord God said.

16. “I will search for the lost sheep. I will bring back the sheep that were scattered and put bandages on the sheep that were hurt. I will make the weak sheep strong, but I will destroy the fat and powerful shepherds. I will feed them the punishment they deserve.”

hoopernikao:
Jesus told Peter 3 times to feed MY lamb. Christ lambs, Peter (shepherd) to feed Christ lambs.
Ensure you check that well before commenting.

If we are to follow along your claim that by requesting Peter feed his sheep and take care of His sheep, Jesus Christ installs Peter as shepherd over his sheep, you are insinuating then that Jesus Christ lied...

John 10 vs 7-20 (ERV)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
7. So Jesus said again, “I assure you, I am the gate for the sheep.
8. All those who came before me were thieves and robbers. The sheep did not listen to them.
9. I am the gate. Whoever enters through me will be saved. They will be able to come in and go out. They will find everything they need.
10. A thief comes to steal, kill, and destroy. But I came to give life—life that is full and good.
11. “I am the good shepherd, and the good shepherd gives his life for the sheep.
12. The worker who is paid to keep the sheep is different from the shepherd. The paid worker does not own the sheep. So when he sees a wolf coming, he runs away and leaves the sheep alone. Then the wolf attacks the sheep and scatters them.
13. The man runs away because he is only a paid worker. He does not really care for the sheep.

14-15. “I am the shepherd who cares for the sheep. I know my sheep just as the Father knows me. And my sheep know me just as I know the Father. I give my life for these sheep.
16. I have other sheep too. They are not in this flock here. I must lead them also. They will listen to my voice. In the future, there will be one flock and one shepherd.
17. The Father loves me because I give my life. I give my life so that I can get it back again.
18. No one takes my life away from me. I give my own life freely. I have the right to give my life, and I have the right to get it back again. This is what the Father told me.”
19. Again the Jews were divided over what Jesus was saying.
20. Many of them said, “A demon has come into him and made him crazy. Why listen to him?”

... and so did God before Him?

Ezekiel 34 vs 9-16 (ERV)

9. So, you shepherds, listen to the word of the Lord!
10. The Lord God says, “I am against the shepherds. I will demand my sheep from them. I will fire them. They will not be my shepherds anymore. Then the shepherds will not be able to feed themselves, and I will save my flock from their mouths. Then my sheep will not be food for them.”
11. [color=#990099] The Lord God says, “I myself will be their Shepherd. I will search for my sheep and take care of them. [/color]
12. If a shepherd is with his sheep when they begin to wander away, he will go searching for them. In the same way I will search for my sheep. I will save them and bring them back from all the places where they were scattered on that dark and cloudy day.
13. I will bring them back from those nations. I will gather them from those countries and bring them back to their own land. I will feed them on the mountains of Israel, by the streams, and in all the places where people live.
14. I will lead them to grassy fields. They will go to the place high on the mountains of Israel and lie down on good ground and eat the grass. They will eat in rich grassland on the mountains of Israel.
15. [color=#990099] Yes, I will feed my flock, and I will lead them to a place of rest.” This is what the Lord God said.[/color]

16. “I will search for the lost sheep. I will bring back the sheep that were scattered and put bandages on the sheep that were hurt. I will make the weak sheep strong, but I will destroy the fat and powerful shepherds. I will feed them the punishment they deserve.”

Can't have it both ways. Either God and then Jesus Christ lied, or Jesus Christ never, in fact, installed Peter as shepherd over His flock as you claim.

I have been battling with some habits for quite some years now.
If it's by decision, I have made a lot of decision but end up going back again and again.
If it's by anything, I have done my best... Please nairalanders, if you have ever overcame any habit, can you help a seeking brother find a way outta a bad habits...
Thank you... Please positive replies

I have overcome plenty of habits myself and the way I did it was by following Jesus Christ's advice regarding breaking free from bondage to sin. Jesus Christ declares that the key is to know the truth(trusting in and obeying it), and by doing just that, the Truth will set you free from whatever it is you seek to break free from.

For instance, if you are battling slavery to sin, what you need do is gain understanding of what sin is, where it comes from, and how to overcome it, all this is true studying and knowing Jesus Christ, the New Covenant Truth of God. Only by learning His teachings, trusting and obeying His commandments and teachings, can you break free of the hold sin has on your life and mind.

John 8 vs 31-36
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
31. So Jesus said to the Jews who believed in him, “If you continue to accept and obey my teaching, you are really my followers.
32. You will know the truth, and the truth will make you free.”
33. They answered, “We are Abraham’s descendants. And we have never been slaves. So why do you say that we will be free?”
34. Jesus said, “The truth is, everyone who sins is a slave—a slave to sin.
35. A slave does not stay with a family forever. But a son belongs to the family forever.
36. So if the Son makes you free, you are really free.

It worked for me where sin is concerned, just as Jesus Christ said it would.

So the one who feed and care for the sheep is called what?

Let's see exactly what Jesus Christ calls such a one, shall we?

John 10 vs 7-20 (ERV)
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
7. So Jesus said again, “I assure you, I am the gate for the sheep.
8. All those who came before me were thieves and robbers. The sheep did not listen to them.
9. I am the gate. Whoever enters through me will be saved. They will be able to come in and go out. They will find everything they need.
10. A thief comes to steal, kill, and destroy. But I came to give life—life that is full and good.
11. “I am the good shepherd, and the good shepherd gives his life for the sheep.
12. The worker who is paid to keep the sheep is different from the shepherd. The paid worker does not own the sheep. So when he sees a wolf coming, he runs away and leaves the sheep alone. Then the wolf attacks the sheep and scatters them.
13. The man runs away because he is only a paid worker. He does not really care for the sheep.
14-15. “I am the shepherd who cares for the sheep. I know my sheep just as the Father knows me. And my sheep know me just as I know the Father. I give my life for these sheep.
16. I have other sheep too. They are not in this flock here. I must lead them also. They will listen to my voice. In the future, there will be one flock and one shepherd.
17. The Father loves me because I give my life. I give my life so that I can get it back again.
18. No one takes my life away from me. I give my own life freely. I have the right to give my life, and I have the right to get it back again. This is what the Father told me.”
19. Again the Jews were divided over what Jesus was saying.
20. Many of them said, “A demon has come into him and made him crazy. Why listen to him?”

And same Jesus gave Peter responsibility of a shepherd.
Jesus must be learning aptly from this your submission.

But Jesus Christ never did that.
