kabillionaire:
If you check very well, the doctor, mr. Abiodun is opening his expired mouth to curse her for is from one RCCG bible school.
Nonsense and ingredient.

That is fruit the founder of that religion is producing!
Any so called pastor or prophet that's affiliated to that man will do exactly the same thing.

Uchesis:
I started questioning the bible stories after reading the book of Job.

It's good to ask questions even the Bible itself encourages such:

if you call out for understanding And raise your voice for discernment. Proverbs 2:3

Compare to

“Keep on asking" Matthew 7:7

Proverbs says if you don't give then you will find the understanding of God's word! Proverbs 2:4-5

Selfishness often deadens our power of reasoning so we need to be honest when making research that is why the Bible's Author said it's the way we judge others that we will be judged. Matthew 7:1-2

Of course the case that affected Job did not start from the lifetime of Job but it's easy to draw conclusions without asking what led to the questions God threw at Satan:

“Where have you come from?”

“Have you taken note of my servant Job? There is no one like him on the earth. He is an upright man of integrity, fearing God and shunning what is bad.” Job 1:7-8


Surely if you have drawn conclusions in your mind regarding the two persons (Almighty God and Satan) discussing in those Bible verses without asking thought provoking questions about what could raise such a discussion you will find it really hard to make any sense out of what you read.

That's why you need to STUDY God's word not just READING it! 🙂

Mattswaggz:
Buddha too did a lot that made him different.

Can you mention the group name of his disciples and what they have been able to achieve among themselves as they apply what Buddha taught them globally? Act 1:8

DEmeritus1:
Some churches never mean well for their followers, they practice advance cultism and scoop their sheeples pocket.

By their fruits you will know! Matthew 7:16

Mattswaggz:
The fact that good and bad people exists everywhere makes your claims null and void.

Jesus did a lot that made him different but it's just a pity that false religionists claiming Christians have complicated everything otherwise no one can listen to the GOOD NEWS and remain the same. From the moment you hear the true gospel you can't resist it if truly you have a conscience!🙂

The scriptures said anyone to be taken must be dead first just as Jesus died!

So it is with the resurrection of the dead. It is sown in corruption; it is raised up in incorruption. It is sown in dishonor; it is raised up in glory. It is sown in weakness; it is raised up in power. It is sown a physical body; it is raised up a spiritual body. If there is a physical body, there is also a spiritual one. 1Corinthans 15:42-44

Whoever is going with Jesus must first drop the physical body before they are raised in the spiritual body!

annyplenty:
the scripture you quoted above is posted below. Did it match with your assertion above that only dead will be taken. The actual scripture says the deaf will rise while the people alive will be caught up
If you are reading the thread, pls judge the truth by yourself. Let nobody mislead you
1 Thessalonians 4:16-17 KJV
For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
[17] Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.

You people always fall my hand joo!

Do you think such a person is a believer at all?

How can someone who always preach to others that in Christ all things have become new {2Corinthians 5:17} take his own life for what he did IN THE PAST?😟

Going by the definition of that word "RAPTURE"
What the Bible described here totally differs because those to be taken knew and are expecting it unlike RAPISTS who takes their victims unexpectedly.
Moreover those to be taken are happy to go with the one who wants them their unlike victims of RAPISTS who are devastated.
Lastly those to be taken are not alive but dead in their graves so they won't even know what is happening to them! 1Thessalonians 4:16-17

So it would have been better and nicer to use any other word that befits that event not RAPTURE!🤔

annyplenty:
Now based on your definition above, which word can be described the actions described in the scriptures below

1. The act of sending angels to gather people from earth to heaven below

Matthew 24:31 KJV
And he shall send his angels[)b] with a great sound of a trumpet, and [b]they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.

2. The act of catching people up from the earth to the heaven to be with the Lord below

1 Thessalonians 4:17 KJV
Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.

I know there are many intelligent people on this platform that are following and they can see the truth straight away

Ebenezer2021:
You're a follower of the fake prophet.
You will not understand

Can you explain how Jesus who told us that he is our brother and that his God and father is the same as our God and father is now the ALMIGHTY GOD? John 20:17😟

Ebenezer2021:
1 Corinthians 1:18, the message of the cross is considered foolishness, absurd, and illogical to those who are perishing, as it contradicts worldly wisdom and logic. However, to those being saved, it is the manifestation of God's power

Why it seems like foolishness: The idea of a divine, all-powerful God dying on a cross is considered irrational, scandalous, or useless by the world's standards

You people keep complicating issues for the true Christians!

Just imagine the highlighted.

If Jesus is the Almighty God then who was he begging to save him o?😟

It's false religionists that needs others to prove that their God exists but true worshipers of God has the evidence within us.
This is what the Bible God said about EVIDENCE of His existence in the minds of His faithful worshipers:

“You are my witnesses,” declares Jehovah, “Yes, my servant whom I have chosen, So that you may know and have faith in me And understand that I am the same One. Before me no God was formed, And after me there has been none" Isaiah 43:10

What about God's Son?
He said:

"You will receive power when the holy spirit comes upon you, and you will be witnesses of me in Jerusalem, in all Ju·deʹa and Sa·marʹi·a, and to the most distant part of the earth.” Act 1:8

So you can see the REAL EVIDENCE that our God is alive remains within us not outside. It's like you asking for the evidence that Nigeria has a president then you speak abusively of Bola Ahmed Tinubu in the presence of his loyalists of course they will deal with you but on the contrary JEHOVAH told us to speak consolingly with whoever is annoyed due to the situation we found ourselves on this planet so we are the peace makers. Matthew 5:9

Throughout the world you can never ever find an organization where members are from all the countries of the earth yet they will not lift up weapons against anyone not to talk of their fellow worshipers. Isaiah 2:2-4

Why because our God said we must love our neighbors as ourselves! Mark 12:31

And most importantly we must have love among ourselves just as God's son love us! John 13:34-35

So if anyone is now talking about proof of existence regarding our God we will tell him or her to look around him or her and point to a global family of peace like us!

Good morning Sir!🙂

Lasveg:
An imaginary God/Jesus will always need people to be defending its existence.
Modified
For the ignorant christians, this is what the article says
'However, the researchers cautioned that several explanations could account for the seismic evidence. One possibility is that it corresponds to the earthquake described in Matthew's Gospel. Another is that a separate earthquake occurred around the time of the crucifixion and was later woven into the biblical narrative.' Nothing is proven, but you can keep clutching at straws, your imaginary God needs it.

karmaolu1:
Time shal come
Religion will be ban in this country

You are prophesying but unknowingly to you.
Well that is exactly what the Bible says about the future of false religions so be prepared.

annyplenty:
Do I assume you don't know the meaning of the word.
You can check the dictionary.

GOOD!
This is the meaning of the word RAPTURE according to the dictionary:

Extreme pleasure, happiness or excitement. ▼ show
(Christianity, with, the) Alternative case form of Rapture.
(obsolete) The act of kidnapping or abducting, especially the forceful carrying off of a woman.
(obsolete) Rape; ravishment; sexual violation.
(obsolete) The act of carrying, conveying, transporting or sweeping along by force of movement; the force of such movement; the fact of being carried along by such movement. ▼ show
A spasm; a fit; a syncope; delirium. ▼ show

Can you see RAPE, KIDNAPPING, ABDUCTING of women?

That's why i asked you to quote the word in any version of the Bible.

Ken4Christ:
I didn't condemn him. I only disagreed with his teachings on the subject in question.

Just as you disagree with JWs on other subjects so why is he not going to your Hell?😀

FxMasterz:
Galatians 1:17:
Paul said:
"I did not go up to Jerusalem to those who had become apostles before me; instead I went to Arabia and came back to Damascus".
That's the Bible verse. So, you're the one deceiving yourself.
Yes, he did it deliberately. No one sent him away. God never instructed him to do so.

You don't even understand what it means to DISASSOCIATE oneself.
Paul was a missionary that Jesus sent to go from one country to another {Act 9:15 compare to 1Timothy 2:7} to help faithful Judaists become Christians in different places and to build congregations.
So according to God's word did Paul deliberately disassociate himself from other faithful Christians?🙂

Ọmọ read what you quoted again:

But when God, who separated me from my mother’s womb and called me through his undeserved kindness, thought good to reveal his Son through me so that I might declare the good news about him to the nations, I did not immediately consult with any human; nor did I go up to Jerusalem to those who were apostles before I was, but I went to Arabia, and then I returned to Damascus Galatians 1:5-7

So if Paul was living in Jerusalem and not being a missionary he must never disassociate himself from other faithful Christians that's what he himself taught others unless you want to claim Paul has double standards! Hebrews 10:24-25

Truvelisback:
It won't make any sense to you because of JW beliefs. Besides, I'm not talking about that.

Stop deceiving yourself.
Whoever quotes the Bible about what God promised in the future whether its about heaven or destruction of wicked people is a PROPHET.
What matters is whether you are living according to what protrudes out of your mouth.
So if you say God's judgement is coming for a reason but you aren't living in line with what you quoted out from the Bible then the same judgement found written in God's word will affect you too because God is not a respecter of any man!🙂

Ó mà ṣe o!🤔

Even the OP has lost his bearing since June 1 2024 but someone is always here posting as if his life depends on whatever he could think, say or do against Jehovah's Witnesses!😟

Truvelisback:
To be honest, of all the five fold ministries, I detest the Office of a prophet because of the fiery furnace prophets are meant to pass through.

Do you say things that's written in the Bible about the future of mankind?

Ọmọ if you do then you are part of the prophets what will lead to your condemnation is living as if what you quote in the Bible regarding the future is meaningless to you! 2Timothy 3:5

Ken4Christ:
Note that there are those who are already judged - those who reject the gospel of Jesus Christ. They are all doomed to go to hell like the Jehovah Witness members.

Funny liar.
But Kumuyi that you are here to condemn is not judged shey?🤣

Are you actively participating in the work Jesus assigned to his disciples? Matthew 28:19🙂

Brother please let him quote what he is saying for everyone to see nah!😀

Janosky:

Oga,pls upgrade yourself.

Kumuyi is always trying to separate himself from Nigerian religious leaders who are just following the new trends in getting followers/members.

The truth is:

There is nothing like deliverance pastor or ministry in the Bible though disciples of Christ do expel demons which means delivering the possessed person but such supernatural acts stopped after all inspired messages from God was complete {1Corinthans 13:8-10} of course when Christianity replaced the old Jewish religious system supernatural acts was rampant to show that a new religion has been born! 1Corinthans 13:11

What about today?
Do we still expel demons in spectacular ways like first century disciples of Christ?

Well we need to know why miracles and other supernatural acts was much in the first century after Jesus began his ministry. There should be a sign that the Christ has arrived. John 3:2

Secondly after Jesus' ascension sincere and honest hearted Judaists from far and near needs to know that Christianity has come to replace Judaism so miracles must continue after Jesus' ascension until the new faith has been firmly established. This continued until the last Bible book was completed which is REVELATION.

God declared that there is no further information to be revealed therefore no addition or subtraction should be made to the inspired messages. Revelation 22:18-19

Afterwards no supernatural acts or signs occurred again so faithful people have to prove their faithfulness by their love for all that has been written. 1Corinthans 13:13

Do we still deliver people today?

YES but not with supernatural acts like it was in the first century instead God's word continues to exact power as we use it to help people make changes in the way they think and act which is the real deliverance that can make them real disciples of Christ as they conform to Bible standard living their lives in harmony with it.

So today if Kumuyi is claiming that the usual ways of gathering crowds is not part of what the Apostles taught did he himself not start his religion claiming he is performing miracles?
If he often claims he is performing miracles how can he condemn what others who also believe miracles should continue in their days as they are claiming they practice supernatural acts of deliverance?🙂

MetalJigsaw:
An anti-Christ is a person that rejects the divinity of our God Jesus Christ. It is what it is.

Do you add your own opinion to the Bible or you will quote the highlighted for everyone to see it in God's word?🙂

MindHacker9009:
Only a lost spanner will be going from house to house teaching that his own god, entered inside Mary another man's wife and offered himself to himself to be nailed to the cross by the same people he created to save the same people he created.

Surely something is wrong somewhere as you keep on repeating this lines even though i told you that is not what the Bible teach!😀

McLizbae:

“And a transformed heart,” he said, “does not discriminate. It loves.”

As long as these people are in politics it is impossible for love to reign even among those claiming they belong to the same religion.

All the names in your post who had a close relationship with Jehovah God were counted righteous in old & new testaments. Mr Sparrow, can you name anyone of them who had ZERO WORKS to prove their faith?

They are trying to rebrand their images on Nairaland as they've become inactive for having nothing tangible to type for so long.😀

Ken4Christ:
Whether he will go to heaven or hell is left for God to judge. God is not a respecter of persons.

I think this is the first time you opened your mouth or used your hand to type sincerely.
You know nothing about God's Kingdom or judgement!🙂
