I had a friend who had a medical condition when he was little. He confessed to me after awaking from the dead organization that if his parents were to be Jehovah witnesses when he was born with a medical condition that needed blood transfusion.

He won't have been alive today. That shocked me and is a reminder why all hands must be on deck to continue to expose the dark deeds of this evil Watch Tower Babble Society and liberate many under the capitivity of this brainwashing cult. I can only imagine how many children have been given no chance to live by an organization that makes up teachings on the go that are not biblical and have continued to change their teachings over the years.

Proverbs 4:19
The wicked continue to stumble in darkness.
Blood Transfusions?

You don't know the job of a court my friend!

You think the court is about Nollywood movies?

Well many people were killed and tortured all because they are living their lives in harmony with the teachings of Jesus back in the first century, the Roman government was worried as many people from different races were putting faith in the man that was killed and here you are saying the account surrounding his execution and resurrection is what should matter to a real intellectual!
Most of you just think dealing with humans is simply a logical process. Billions of people have lived and died with the believe that Jesus was killed for something they don't really understand, and all you have to say is the story surrounding his execution and resurrection is your own problem.
Oya go and delete the story from the heads of those believing in it nah! grin

MindHacker9000:
No law court or Judge will accept these types of 4 totally different accounts:

In Matthew Mary Magdalene and the other Mary saw an angel.

Matthew 28:5-7 Says: The angel said to the women, “Do not be afraid, for I know that you are looking for Jesus, who was crucified. He is not here; he has risen, just as he said. Come and see the place where he lay. Then go quickly and tell his disciples: ‘He has risen from the dead and is going ahead of you into Galilee. There you will see him.’ Now I have told you.”

In Mark Mary Magdalene, Mary the mother of James, and Salome saw a young man.
Mark 16:5 Says: As they entered the tomb, they saw a young man dressed in a white robe sitting on the right side, and they were alarmed. “Don’t be alarmed,” he said. “You are looking for Jesus the Nazarene, who was crucified. He has risen! He is not here

In Luke the women saw 2 men.
Luke 24:4-6 Says: While they were wondering about this, suddenly two men in clothes that gleamed like lightning stood beside them. 5 In their fright the women bowed down with their faces to the ground, but the men said to them, “Why do you look for the living among the dead? 6 He is not here; he has risen! Remember how he told you, while he was still with you in Galilee:

In John [Notice there was no angel or young man. Here it was just Mary Magdalene, Peter and some of the other disciples]
Mary Magdalene went to the tomb. So she came running to Simon Peter and the other disciple. Then Simon Peter came along behind him and went straight into the tomb.

John 20:6-8 Says Then Simon Peter came along behind him and went straight into the tomb. He saw the strips of linen lying there, 7 as well as the cloth that had been wrapped around Jesus’ head. The cloth was still lying in its place, separate from the linen. 8 Finally the other disciple, who had reached the tomb first, also went inside.

Just as Christmas is dubious and idolatrous!
Resurrection and Ascension too is similarly dubious!
Grandpa JW above confirmed that the writers heard from others who were eyewitness of the events. But who were the eyewitnesses they reported from? But Bible compilation is not like a law court! If 4 witnesses give these kind of 4 accounts in a law court, the case will be thrashed against them.
Did the eyewitnesses really saw the events?
Was the holy Spirit involved in the compilation of these four accounts? Holy Spirit no dey make mistakes as we are made to believe!
For example only in Matthew was there an Earthquake and an Angel of the Lord reported coming down then going to the tomb to roll back the stone and then sat on it.
This was never reported by the other three accounts!
grin
And in Matthew it was the two Marys only that first went to the tomb!
Mark includes Salome with the two Marys!
Luke says the "Women" not specifying (trying to be safe!)
John says it was only Mary Magdalene.
So many talking points as Pundits they talk am!
Let's compare this to what Muhammad brought!
How many people apart from Muhammad saw or heard any angel spoke with Muhammad?

My friend, reality totally differs from make up stories. Matthew, Mark, Luke and John were Jesus' disciples who penned down the story. So their writings included what they witnessed and heard from others, in a law court a witness is not only required to relate what he saw but also what he heard from others it's all these that will be summed up to know what really happened.
Imagine Muhammad your so called prophet, ordinarily recording what happened in his life has led to strong and weak hadiths. So let's reason from an open mind not just being sentimental.
Both Jesus and Muhammad are not from my town, it's what we read and grasp from their life that we are trying to emulate! smiley

The men weren't taught to be erotic towards their wives rather they'll share their deep feelings with prostitutes instead of their own wives!

Below are prostitutes in an Islamic state, you and i know that their customers are males who won't share their feelings with their wives rather they'll PAY these ones simply because they want to share their feelings!

Adam and Eve were created NUDE and they were so until both of them demanded privacy from their Creator who fully knew that they've been deceived. Before they left the garden both of them surely had each other to themselves without anyone disturbing their private life.
Today a Christian (man of God) who is fully competent and completely equipped should know how to compose erotic poems for his wife ALWAYS. 2Timothy 3:17

The writers recorded what they heard from others who were eyewitnesses of the events, only John saw most of the events directly.
If we are in a law court and we are trying to get the facts of an event, we don't expect four different Witnesses to give exactly the same narration nah! smiley
What everyone wants to know is the correlation not a stereotype account where all the Witnesses will say precisely the same thing.
So the points we need is that an innocent young man who happens to be a prophet in the first century was wrongly accused, arrested, arraigned, charged, judged, convicted, sentenced and executed all on falsehood. Evidence that the nation of Israel has been condemned by the God who warned them not to turn against the last prophet He will send to them! Deuteronomy 18:18-19

The rest is STORY! STORY!! STORY!!! wink

@ bold how does this relate to what is being said
Jesus condemned Israel for their unbelief and indeed the kingdom was taken away from them and given to the Gentiles but prophesies by the prophets said that God will remember Israel.

Romans 11:1, 5 I say then, Hath God cast away his people? God forbid. For I also am an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin.

Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace.

God has not cast off the Israelites christ rebuke and condemnation is only temporal, once they go back to God he will restore them.
Perhaps you don't know the significance of this statement:


"All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me" Matthew 28:18

This same man having the authority to pass JUDGMENT on both the living and the dead {2Timothy 4:4} openly declared that the unfaithful nation of Israel has been condemned, and you're here arguing blindly even when you can read it with your own eyes from the Bible! huh
Well the same God you're expecting to restore that faithless nation told the people with whom He entered into a covenant:

I will raise up for them a prophet like you from among their fellow Israelites, and I will put my words in his mouth. He will tell them everything I command him. I myself will call to account anyone who does not listen to my words that the prophet speaks in my name. Deuteronomy 18:18-19

And when that promised prophet came this faithless nation killed him mercilessly and said:

“Let his blood come upon us and upon our children" Matthew 27:25

That's why Apostle John wrote:


He came to his own home, but his own people did not accept him. However, to all who did receive him, he gave authority to become God’s children, because they were exercising faith in his name!

So if you're still expecting that same God who warned their ancestors to come back and restore a faithful nation among whom 78% of them still don't accept the messenger of the covenant. Then you're trying to make God a joker! cheesy

If they dont remain in unbelief God will reinstate them. Their unbelief in Christ is certainly not forever because God has promise to restore them. If you knew the scripture you will know that Israel is in a state of temporary blindness. They are the original people of the covenant, to them belong the patriarchs, prophets and above all the messiah.
It's the Messiah himself that says Israel as a nation has been condemned:

This is why I say to you, the Kingdom of God will be taken from you and be given to a nation producing its fruits. Matthew 21:43


“Jerusalem, Jerusalem, the killer of the prophets and stoner of those sent to her—how often I wanted to gather your children together the way a hen gathers her chicks under her wings! But you did not want it. Look! Your house is abandoned to you" Matthew 23:37-38

Perhaps you're among those people traveling to Israel (Jerusalem) so that you'll be called "JP" well you've wasted your money, time and energy, because Jesus (Christ) says "Jerusalem and Israel has been condemned due to their faithlessness"

That's why Jesus used an illustration to foretell what will happen to the nation of Israel! Matthew 22:1-14

May you have PEACE! smiley

God took away the kingdom from them but however not forever, God's word will be fulfilled.

God is not partial it simply a matter of election.
Jesus knew when God promised Abraham, Isaac and Jacob that the Kingdom belongs to their offspring which is Christ not the Israelites

Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ. Galatians 3:16

So it's only those connected to the Christ by faith that will inherit the kingdom not faithless Israelites! John 1:11-12 smiley

You are wrong to say that God had totally abandoned his people whom he first know.
In Jeremiah that I pointed out to you God said he would not make a total end of Israel meaning he will not abandon them totally.
God's would must be fulfilled.

God's calling and election are without repentance.
Paul reiterated that what happened to Israel was blindness and once the gentiles had come into faith then Israel too will be saved.

Romans 11:25 For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in.

11:26 And so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob:

11:27 For this is my covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins.

11:28 As concerning the gospel, they are enemies for your sakes: but as touching the election, they are beloved for the fathers' sakes.

11:29 For the gifts and calling of God are without repentance.

11:30 For as ye in times past have not believed God, yet have now obtained mercy through their unbelief:

11:31 Even so have these also now not believed, that through your mercy they also may obtain mercy.

11:32 For God hath concluded them all in unbelief, that he might have mercy upon all.
Well i'm a Christian that's why i'm quoting what Jesus said about the rebellious nation of Israel:

This is why I say to you, the Kingdom of God will be taken from you and be given to a nation producing its fruits. Matthew 21:43

God is not partial so as to continue putting up with those murderers {Matthew 23:34-38} definitely you're not saying the person quoting Jesus is wrong rather you're condemning Jesus who uttered that statement towards a faithless nation! Matthew 12:39

Nonsense!
At the excavation site, Was his two hands tied on opposite sides of a transverse beam?
Whether Cross or Stake the Koko here is that Jesus was executed and the reason for his execution was to redeem mankind as a perfect soul. I don't think there's any reason to argue over that, do you have what Jesus promised?

Just like every other religionist in this world Peter heard Jesus promised him heaven and other blessings in the afterlife yet Peter asked Jesus:

"We have left everything to follow you! What then will there be for us?" Matthew 19:27

Jesus didn't repeat the heavenly promises that Peter and his companions can't ascertain while they're still living. Instead Jesus promised Peter and his companions what everyone can verify while we are still here now:

"Truly I tell you," Jesus replied, "no one who has left home or brothers or sisters or mother or father or children or fields for me and the gospel will fail to receive a hundred times as much in this present age: homes, brothers, sisters, mothers, children and fields —along with persecutions —and in the age to come eternal life. Mark 10:29-30

So have you gotten a global family of peace loving worshipers where you can feel comfortable anywhere throughout the world as if you're at home due to your faith?
If you do then you don't have to worry anymore you're already experiencing what Jesus promised Peter and his companions, all you have to do now is run the race to the finishing line just as the last talk we heard today.

Happy 100 years anniversary my brother may we never loose the narrow path to everlasting life. Amen! smiley

[color=silver].[/color] LUKE 12:1-12.

IN the mean time,
when there were gathered together
an innumerable multitude of people,
insomuch that they trode
one upon another,
he began to Say
unto his Disciples
first of all,

"Beware ye of the Leaven
of the Pharisees,
which is Hypocrisy.
2. "For there is nothing covered,
that shall not be revealed;
neither hid,
that shall not be known.
3. "Therefore whatsoever
ye have spoken in Darkness
shall be heard in the Light;
and that which ye have
spoken in the ear in closets
shall be proclaimed
upon the housetops.
4. "And I Say unto you
my Friends,

'BE NOT AFRAID OF THEM
THAT KILL THE BODY,
AND AFTER THAT
HAVE NO MORE
THAT THEY CAN DO.'


5. "But I will forewarn you
Whom ye shall fear:

'FEAR HIM,
WHICH AFTER HE HATH KILLED
HATH POWER
TO CAST INTO HELL;'


yea, I Say unto you,

'FEAR HIM.' "

6. "Are not five sparrows
sold for two farthings,
and not one of them
is forgotten before God?
7. "But even the very
hairs of your head
are all numbered.
Fear not therefore:
ye are of more value
than many sparrows.
8. "Also I Say unto you,

'WHOSOEVER SHALL
CONFESS ME
BEFORE MEN,
HIM SHALL THE SON OF MAN
ALSO CONFESS BEFORE
THE ANGELS OF GOD:
9. 'BUT HE THAT DENIETH ME
BEFORE MEN
SHALL BE DENIED BEFORE
THE ANGELS OF GOD.'


10. "And whosoever
shall speak a word
against The Son of Man,
it shall be forgiven him:
but unto him that blasphemeth
against The Holy Ghost
it shall not be forgiven.
11. "And when they bring you
unto the synagogues,
and unto magistrates,
and powers,
take ye no thought
how or what thing
ye shall answer,
or what ye shall say:
12. "For The Holy Ghost
shall Teach you
in the same hour
what ye ought to say."

IF YOU ARE THE SORT OF CHRISTIAN WHO CANNOT PREACH THE GOSPEL, YOU DO NOT HAVE THE SPIRIT OF GOD IN YOU.

Is that not what the OP is about?

The Words of The Spirit of God are always in accordance with THE LAW OF MOSES and THE GOSPEL OF LORD YESHUA.

The Oyinbos have concocted an IDOL, consistent with AARON'S GOLDEN CALF, called "THE BIBLE."

This includes writings purportedly from God, that justify breaking God's Commandments and Precepts by Moses and Lord Yeshua.

Including them in the same volume is supposed to grant them legitimacy, and lend them authority.


[color=silver].[/color] MATTHEW 23:1-15.

THEN spake Jesus to the multitude,
and to his Disciples,

2. Saying,
"The scribes and the Pharisees
sit in Moses' seat:
3. "All therefore whatsoever
they bid you observe,
that observe and do;
but do not ye
after their works:
for they say, and do not.
4. "For they bind heavy burdens
and grievous to be borne,
and lay them on men's shoulders;
but they themselves
will not move them
with one of their fingers.
5. "But all their works
they do for to be seen of men:
they make broad their phylacteries,
and enlarge the borders
of their garments,
6. "And love the Uppermost Rooms
at feasts,
and the Chief Seats in the Synagogues,
7. "And greetings in the markets,
and to be called of men, 'Rabbi, Rabbi.'
8. "But be not ye called 'Rabbi:'
for one is your Master, even Christ;
and all ye are Brethren.
9. "And call no man your father
upon the Earth:
for one is your Father,
Which is in Heaven.
10. "Neither be ye called masters:
for one is your Master,
even Christ.
11. "But he that is greatest among you
shall be your servant.
12. "And whosoever shall exalt himself
shall be abased;
and he that shall humble himself
shall be exalted.
13. "But woe unto you,
scribes and Pharisees,
Hypocrites!
for ye shut up
The Kingdom of Heaven
against men:
for ye neither go in yourselves,
neither suffer ye them
that are entering to go in.
14. "Woe unto you,
scribes and Pharisees,
Hypocrites!
For ye devour widows' houses,
and for a pretence
make long prayer:
therefore ye shall receive
The Greater Damnation.
15. "Woe unto you,
scribes and Pharisees,
Hypocrites!
for ye compass Sea and Land
to make one proselyte,
and when he is made,
ye make him
twofold more
The Child of Hell
than yourselves."

SOME PEOPLE EXALTED THEMSELVES TO OFFICERS OVER OTHER CHRISTIANS CLAIMING THE AUTHORITY TO SUPERSEDE MOSES AND LORD YESHUA.

They call themselves "APOSTLES," "BISHOPS," "PASTORS," and other silly, made-up titles. All that matters is that they justify breaking The Law of God.

[color=silver].[/color] LUKE 16:1-15.

AND he Said also unto his Disciples,

"There was a certain rich man,
which had a steward;
and the same was accused unto him
that he had wasted his goods.
2. "And he called him,
and said unto him,

'HOW IS IT THAT
I HEAR THIS OF THEE?
GIVE AN ACCOUNT
OF THY STEWARDSHIP;
FOR THOU MAYEST BE
NO LONGER STEWARD.'


3. "Then the steward said
within himself,

'WHAT SHALL I DO?
FOR MY LORD
TAKETH AWAY FROM ME
THE STEWARDSHIP:
I CANNOT DIG,
TO BEG I AM ASHAMED.
4. 'I AM RESOLVED
WHAT TO DO,
THAT, WHEN I AM
PUT OUT OF THE STEWARDSHIP,
THEY MAY RECEIVE ME
INTO THEIR HOUSES.'


5. "So he called every one
of his lord's debtors unto him,
and said unto the first,

'HOW MUCH OWEST THOU
UNTO MY LORD?'


6. "And he said,

'AN HUNDRED MEASURES OF OIL.'

And he said unto him,

'TAKE THY BILL,
AND SIT DOWN QUICKLY,
AND WRITE FIFTY.'


7. "Then said he to another,

'AND HOW MUCH
OWEST THOU?'


And he said,

'AN HUNDRED MEASURES OF WHEAT.'

And he said unto him,

'TAKE THY BILL,
AND WRITE FOURSCORE.'


8. "And the lord commended
the Unjust Steward,
because he had done wisely:
for the Children of this World
are in their Generation
wiser than the Children of Light.
9. "And I Say unto you,

'MAKE TO YOURSELVES FRIENDS
OF THE MAMMON
OF UNRIGHTEOUSNESS;
THAT, WHEN YE FAIL,
THEY MAY RECIEVE YOU
INTO EVERLASTING HABITATIONS.'


10. "He that is Faithful
in that which is Least
is Faithful also in Much:
and he that is Unjust
in the Least
is Unjust also in Much.
11. "If therefore ye have not been
Faithful in the Unrighteous Mammon,
who will commit to your trust
The True Riches?
12. "And if ye have not
been Faithful
in that which is
another man's,
who shall give you
that which is your own?
13. "No Servant can
serve two Masters:
for either he will hate the one,
and love the other;
or else he will hold to the one,
and despise the other.
Ye cannot serve God and Mammon."

14. And the Pharisees also,
who were Covetous,
heard all these things,
and they derided him.
15. And he Said unto them,

"Ye are they
which justify yourselves
before Men;
but God knoweth
your hearts:
for that which is
Highly Esteemed
amongst Men
is Abomination
in The Sight of God."

DID YOU KNOW THAT LORD YESHUA'S DISCIPLES WERE NEVER CONVERTED?

[color=silver].[/color] LUKE 22:24-32.

24. And there was also
a strife among them,
which of them should be
accounted the greatest.
25. And he said unto them,

"The kings of the Gentiles
exercise lordship over them;
and they that
exercise authority upon them
are called benefactors.
26. "But ye shall not be so:
but he that is greatest among you,
let him be as the younger;
and he that is chief,
as he that doth serve.
27. "For whether is greater,
he that sitteth at meat,
or he that serveth?
Is not he that sitteth at meat?
But I am among you
as he that serveth.
28. "Ye are they
which have continued with me
in my Temptations.
29. "And I appoint unto you
a Kingdom,
as my Father hath appointed
unto me;
30. "That ye may eat and drink
at my table
in my Kingdom,
and sit on Thrones
judging the Twelve Tribes
of Israel."

31. And the Lord Said,

"Simon, Simon, behold,
Satan hath desired
(to have) you,
that he may sift (you)
as wheat:
32. "But I have prayed for thee,
that thy Faith fail not:
and when thou art converted,
strengthen thy Brethren."

IF CEPHAS WAS NOT A CONVERT, NONE OF THE OTHER DISCIPLES WERE CONVERTED, EITHER: THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT!

The Oyinbos tell us that THE BOOK OF ACTS OF THE APOSTLES was the beginning of Christianity.

They were misinformed.

CHRISTIANITY ENDED WHEN LORD YESHUA ASCENDED.

The rubbish that was started at Yasharaylim was never Christianity, but a sick joke.

I KNOW THAT MOST CHURCHGOERS WILL HAVE NOTHING TO SAY: EXPLAIN WHY YOU THINK THAT THE BOOK OF ACTS AND APOSTLES WERE CHRISTIANS!

15. Beware of False Prophets,

Well let me tell you that i have found that group, with eyes of faith they're fulfilling what Isaiah and Micah prophesied! Isaiah 2:2-4; Micah 4:1-3

People from different races also tried living by their conscience, they will not do what they knew is wrong towards their fellowman, God's angels are watching such individuals and giving Him a fine report about them so they are to be remembered as UNRIGHTEOUS ones because they only lived by conscience not according to God's laws.

Christianity Etc › Re: Help Me Understand, I Love Islam But ..... by MaxInDHouse(m): 5:43am On Dec 12, 2021
I'll love to address the issue of HUMILITY!

This is one quality that's missing in the human society today leading to killings here and there but then many do argue when told they're not humble. So how do we resolve the issue of HUMILITY?
The first thing we need to know is that only God is the SUPREME BEING that's why we must all look up to Him, but then He is invisible and we've heard, read and also noticed that some humans knows better than we do in some fields. Moreover it's written in all religious books that someone (like a prophet or philosopher) always teach others and later after his death many do revere such individuals as God's sent. So a humble person will always expect to find someone who knows better than him and prepare to learn from a better scholar.
Throughout the history of mankind billions in different religions are talking about individuals they revere and expect others to learn from their teacher. One of such teachers was a first century young Jewish man named Jesus of Nazareth. The book Bible would have remained just like other Religious books from different cultures but it's the teachings of this young man that's moving honest hearted and sincere individuals from all over the world to dedicate their lives into the interpretation of what was recorded about Jesus, so if not for the Christian Greek Scriptures (New Testament) the Hebrew scriptures (Old Testament) can't go far.
Due to Jesus' wonderful counsels found in the New Testament the Bible became the most popular and most translated book in the history of mankind, when talking about the best seller among books the Bible is excluded because there's no book ever written that's sold in millions of copies yearly like the Bible!
Despite all these Jesus himself still gave all the glory and honour to someone superior to him in wisdom {John 14:28} meaning Jesus was also a humble person {Philippians 2:6} though he made it clear to everyone that he knows better than anyone else when talking about the one and only true God! Luke 10:22

Jesus died, resurrected and returned to heaven alive as we read in the Bible, but after reading all these in a book, what assurance do we have that Jesus is a real historical figure and not just a fabrication from some intellectuals? Most people have discarded Jesus' story because so much about him sounds impossible.
So we have a problem at hand, we need proof that Jesus truly existed apart from what we found written in that book, but to my shocking surprise Jesus still gave us something we will always have to be sure that he is a real historical figure.
Listen to him:

Little children, I am with you a little longer. You will look for me; and just as I said to the Jews, ‘Where I go you cannot come,’ I now say it also to you. I am giving you a new commandment, that you love one another; just as I have loved you, you also love one another. By this all will know that you are my disciples—if you have love among yourselves.” John 13:33-35

So according to Jesus a group will emerge and they will take Jesus' teachings to all the nations on this planet {Act 1:8} due to the Jesus' teachings people will know them throughout the world {Matthew 5:13-16} and just as Jesus was hated due to his ideologies there is no nation where his followers will be celebrated {Matthew 10:22-25} in fact they will be hated just as Jesus was hated among his own people! John 15:19

Do we have such a group today?
Well, it takes great meekness (humility) on the part of any honest hearted and sincere individuals to acknowledge that he has found one. WHY? Because you must submit yourself to the tenets binding Jesus' group together as one big and happy family of peace loving worshipers! Hebrews 13:7, 17

That's why everyone just feel like talking about the religion of their choice, no one is talking about the one and only group practicing what Jesus really taught.
So if anyone wants to argue about HUMILITY, ask him if he has found Jesus' group, if such a person is humble he will present Jesus' group before everyone and point to the reasons why he believes that that is Jesus' group, but if not such an arrogant person will be fighting really hard as in tough to discard the idea of a group practicing what Jesus taught instead he will prefer the anonymous where everyone is free to choose any group of their choice all in the name of following Jesus who emphatically said:

“If you love me, you will observe my commandments" John 14:15
How possible it is to have over 41,000 different sects with contradicting teachings and conflicting doctrines all claiming denominations of Jesus' teachings? undecided

Christianity Etc › Re: Help Me Understand, I Love Islam But ..... by MaxInDHouse(m): 4:47am On Dec 12, 2021
TruthinAction:
There is no salvation in Islam. Jesus is the only way to God the father. Mohammed never promised any of his followers salvation. Rather, he confessed he is not sure of his destiny and even the destiny of those follwing - Sura 46:9 which reads, “I am not the first of the Messengers; and I do not know what shall be done with me or with you. I follow only what is revealed to me, and I am nothing but a plain warner.”

Compare it with the statement of Jesus.

"Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me." (John 14:6)

in another place, he said,

"A little while, and ye shall not see me: and again, a little while, and ye shall see me, because I go to the Father." (John 16:16).

Please. follow who know road.
The first time i read this:

Then Jesus came to them and said, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age." Matthew 28:18-20

I had sleepless nights!
Because the man who utter such a statement is damn sure of what he is saying. After saying "all authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me" this young man added "therefore go and make disciples of all the nations" even though i searched many years to figure out the group this guy sent out i am certain that he's gotten what he takes to have salvation!

AntiChristian:
So can you explain further with the verses below on the reason why the infants, women and innocent men had to be killed?

1.Fathers shall not be put to death for their children, nor children put to death for their fathers; each is to die for his own sin (Deuteronomy 24:16).

2.Everyone will die for their own sin; whoever eats sour grapes—their own teeth will be set on edge (Jeremiah 31:30).

3.The one who sins is the one who will die (Ezekiel 18:4).

4.Yet you may ask, ‘Why shouldn’t the son bear the iniquity of his father?’ Since the son has done what is just and right, carefully observing all My statutes, he will surely live. 20The soul who sins is the one who will die. A son will not bear the iniquity of his father, and a father will not bear the iniquity of his son. The righteousness of the righteous man will fall upon him, and the wickedness of the wicked man will fall upon him. 21But if the wicked man turns from all the sins he has committed, keeps all My statutes, and does what is just and right, he will surely live; he will not die.…
Ezekiel 18:19-21
All these verses are about people who knew God's laws, so each will carry his own load! Galatians 6:5
But you were talking about people who knew nothing about God's laws neither are they ready to reason with Him.
As for people who can reason God has always proved to be faithful to them.
Take for instance a prostitute named Rahab in the city of Jericho. This woman reasoned that the true God has given the Israelites the land her own people were living so she secretly joined God's people to achieve what God has promised.
Rahab and her entire family were spared when all the inhabitants of Jericho were killed, and do you know that Rahab and all her family became worshipers of the true God afterwards? In fact God arranged that Rahab became the great grandmother of Jesus Christ {Matthew 1:5} and her name was included in the list of faithful people God is expecting in Paradise! Hebrews 11:31

So my friend, the true God will destroy all the descendants of faithless people and he will be ever faithful to those who proved to be faithful {Exodus 20:5-6} but as for all those that forget Him they will be turned to graves! Psalms 9:17

May you have PEACE! smiley

AntiChristian:
This is what the LORD of Hosts says: ‘I witnessed what the Amalekites did to the Israelites when they ambushed them on their way up from Egypt. 3Now go and attack the Amalekites and devote to destruction all that belongs to them. Do not spare them, but put to death men and women, children and infants, oxen and sheep, camels and donkeys.
1 Samuel 15:3

1.But why kill women and infants?
Because the women will tell their young ones what happened to their daddies and that will lead to another trouble in the future for pure worship. The Amalekites hated the true God (not the Israelites) that's why He commanded that their entire generation should be wiped out. However one Amalekite survived that genocide and his descendant tried to revenge later only for God to step in and save His people!
Haman was a descendant of Agag the king of Amalek {1Samuel 15:8} he was promoted by the King of Persia {Esther 3:3} he schemed to wipe out the Jews {Esther 3:8-9} but Jehovah fought for His people and Haman died due to his evil scheme! Esther 7:10
If you wish to know more try to read the entire Bible book of Esther so you can know why God asked His people to wipe out the entire race of Amalek!
AntiChristian:
2. Why kill Oxen, sheep, camels and donkeys?
3. Why kill innocent people?
The oxen, sheep, camels and donkeys were to be destroyed so that the Israelites may never remember anything about the Amalekites.
Back then there was no preaching regarding faith in the true God so any surviving Amalekite will come back for a revenge just as you can read in the Bible book of Esther.

God would definitely restore Israel, God said he will not make a full end of Israel.

Jeremiah 30:11
For I am with thee, saith the LORD, to save thee: though I make a full end of all nations whither I have scattered thee, yet will I not make a full end of thee: but I will correct thee in measure, and will not leave thee altogether unpunished.
What God promised the Israelites there has been passed unto the "Israel of God" (faithful individuals who accepted Jesus as the Christ) {Galatians 6:16 compare to Romans 9:6} regarding the nation called "Israel" today God has forgotten them after the establishment of Christianity in the first Century because they proved to be faithless throughout their generations! Matthew 23:37-38

Most of you don't really know why the Jews in the first century keep persecuting Jesus' followers {Act 13:50; 14:2,19; 17:13} well it's because they knew that since God's promise through prophet Joel {Joel 2:28-30} only fulfilled in the midst of Jesus' disciples the rest of them are doomed {Act 2:16-19} that's why those that knew the consequences of what happened that day begged Peter:

Now when they heard this, they were stabbed to the heart, and they said to Peter and the rest of the apostles: “Men, brothers, what should we do?” Act 2:37

Peter responded:

Peter said to them: “Repent, and let each one of you be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for forgiveness of your sins, and you will receive the free gift of the holy spirit. For the promise is to you and your children, and to all those who are far away, to all those whom Jehovah our God may call to himself.” And with many other words he gave a thorough witness and kept exhorting them, saying: “Get saved from this crooked generation" Act 2:38-40

All those that accepted Jesus Christ were killed by the Jews, that's why their descendants till today don't believe in Jesus Christ.
So don't let anyone deceive you the nation of Israel has been abandoned and the true God has chosen another nation that's producing the fruitage of faith! Matthew 21:43

That's the nation all of you need to IDENTIFY today because whoever is not connected to them have no share in the Kingdom of Christ, they are SPIRITUAL Jews {Zechariah 8:23} Paul spoke about them @ Romans 2:25-29
