Emusan: Waooooo can you imagine? Yet you asked me to Google: WHO CONQUERED JERUSALEM in 607BC. Provide your source where it was stated that Jerusalem was conquered in 607BC Or 607BC doesn't have any historical support and just pick by you?
You only need to know that history doesn't come with accurate dates unless it's found written in the Bible which is God's inspired word. So if archeologists got a date close to 607 BCE then there's no need arguing over that. What matters is that Babylon was conquered around 6th century BCE.
The source i got said it's 607 BCE and another source said it's 587 BCE the difference is just two decades meaning it actually happened around that time. That's what really matters if there's nothing attached to this!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2wdDvys2z6k?si=nTReVo2Wx__Quest This young man has a question for all those insisting on 587 BCE: How many years did God say the Jews will spend in exile? If we're to go by 607 BCE then that will amount to 70 years but if we're to go by 587 BCE then that will amount to 50 years. So is it the God of Abraham that miscalculated His prediction or those contradicting 607 BCE?
Emusan: So can you openly admit now also as no where the doctrine like 1914 was talking about in the Bible?
Google: Who conquered Jerusalem in 607 BCE Nebuchadnezzar II is known as the greatest king of the Chaldean dynasty of Babylonia. He conquered Syria and Palestine and made Babylon a splendid city. He destroyed the Temple of Jerusalem and initiated the Babylonian Captivity of the Jewish population.
MaxInDHouse: Babylonian King Nebuchadnezzar destroyed Jerusalem and it's temple in the year 607 B.C.E.
God revealed in a dream that the trampling of Jerusalem which is God's arrangement to rule will last for SEVEN TIMES! Daniel 4:23
When Jesus walked the earth he told first century Jews that the times of the nations is still ongoing so they should wait until the SEVEN TIMES is over! Luke 21:24
The nations will continue to rule and Christ must sit at God's right hand until the time is fulfilled! Psalms 110:1 compare to Act 7:56
So how long is the SEVEN TIMES? In the Bible book of Revelation it was revealed to John the apostle that three and a half times is equal to 1260 days! Revelations 12:6, 14
Therefore SEVEN TIMES will amount to 2520 days but if we're to calculate from 607 B.C.E. that will end in the year 600 B.C.E. yet Jesus told his contemporaries that the time God gave the nations is still ongoing in his own days {Luke 21:24} therefore we have to go by the standard God pronounced when Israelites annoyed Him a day will be for a year! Numbers 14:34 compare to Ezekiel 4:6
So the 2520 days will be 2520 years counting from 607 B.C.E. it ended in the year 1914. That was the year Jesus was crowned as King of God's kingdom in heaven and the first thing he did was sending Satan out of heaven that year {Revelations 12:7-12} the earth began seeing woes right from that time until today! Matthew 24:7-14
God's people continued preaching zealously and industriously teaching throughout the earth gathering millions of peace loving subjects in preparation for the second coming of Christ who is coming to destroy all opposers of his rule! Luke 19:27
So whoever believes this will continue doing the work Jesus assigned to his disciples with endurance till the end! Matthew 24:13-14
Westerhoffe: [b]John 1 (KJV) ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¹ In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. ² The same was in the beginning with God. Revelation 19 (KJV) ¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ ¹¹ And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war. ¹² His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself. ¹³ And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God. Did the Bible say there that, …and the Word was lesser GOD? Or and the Word was a Demi-God? Or and the Word was an angel or an Archangel?
The Bible never said the word was the Almighty God rather it said "and the word was God" which means there are two persons and one is greater than the other. So Jesus was the mighty God foretold in the Bible book of Isaiah 9:6 who is lesser and not the Almighty God!
Westerhoffe: Why are you people like this even? Who do you even think JESUS CHRIST is in the first place?[/b]
Jesus is God's Son {Matthew 16:13-18} and God has a lot of angelic sons in heaven {Job 38:7} so Jesus is one of them!
Ken4Christ: The answer is in the scripture. Unless you repent, you will likewise perish. God already reveal the end of the wicked. You want to think for God. You want to suggest to God to make you disappear or not to exist?
Why ask foolish questions when the scripture already reveal what will happen?
Repent and be saved. Reject Jesus and be damned. The choice is yours.
Guy your brainwashing is top notch!
The simple answer is that God never intended to sustain His erring children in excruciating pains it's either they make a U-turn and continue living or they remain useless and go into extinction.
Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord GOD, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel? Ezekiel 33:11
Even a toddler can understand what God has in mind for His creatures whether they choose to be good or bad!
Aemmyjah: And ignore the same Revelation says the lake of fire means the second death You were the one arguing earlier of devil tormented in a physical place. Can a spirit be harmed with fire?
Since that's what his pastors told him and it is word for word in his copy of the Bible then spirits must be tormented inside fire.
I just don't understand how their brains works because sometimes the same Hellfire apologists will say Satan will be the one using folks to roast humans in the fire but some other times they will say Satan himself is being tormented in the same fire.
Ken4Christ: The mad man on the street has more hope than you. When you are confronted with the truth, you avoid it and start saying something else. You see white and call it black even in broad daylight. I just pray for time to release my book exposing all your false doctrines. Your torment in hell will be worse for intentionally opposing God's word and believe the lies of Russell and Rutherford.
As there are ongoing changes on Nairaland being proposed and implemented for the growth and betterment of this platform, I hereby request on behalf of all Christians on Nairaland that there be a specified Christianity for Christians on this platform to avoid any display of religious bias and favoritism but a true religious diversity.
Anyone who would comment on that specified would need to confess to:
I believe that JESUS CHRIST is the Son of GOD. I believe that JESUS CHRIST is the Way, the Truth and Life. I believe and I accept JESUS CHRIST as my LORD and Saviour.
Looking forward to seeing this implemented.
Thank you.
Westerhoffe.
The underlined is wrong!
Jesus is not LORD but Lord according to God's word.
To confirm this read Psalm 110:1
The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool.Psalms 110:1
This is King David inspired to write about Jesus being in the presence of the Almighty God and to clarify matters apostle Peter expressly said that David was talking about Jesus as the lesser Lord in the Psalms:
For David is not ascended into the heavens: but he saith himself, The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand, Until I make thy foes thy footstool. Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that God hath made that same Jesus, whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ.Acts 2:34-36
So Jesus is our Lord not our LORD the upper case is reserved for the Almighty God who is the father and God of both Jesus and all true worshipers:
Jesus saith unto her, Touch me not; for I am not yet ascended to my Father: but go to my brethren, and say unto them, I ascend unto my Father, and your Father; and to my God, and your God. John 20:17
Ken4Christ: You have become so bold that you deliberately reject God's word. Anything you don't agree with, you call it a parable. Even parable are stories told using events that can actually happen in reality. But how is God casting Satan into the Lake of fire a parable? Your brain is sick. Even the inhabitants of Sodom and Gomorrah you made reference to as presently in hell. Their Souls are in hell. This is what Jude 7 says; Jude 7 7 Even as Sodom and Gomorrha, and the cities about them in like manner, giving themselves over to fornication, and going after strange flesh, are set forth for an example, suffering the vengeance of eternal fire. Look at the phrase, 'suffering the vengeance of eternal fire.' It is in present continuous term. You are not afraid to stand against the word of God. You judgement is certain. Your punishment is sure. Just like your founders are in hell, you will join them soon. Please, Nairalander reading this post that are JW members, come out of this evil cult, less you be consumed by the wrath of God.
You misconstrued everything it's just a pity that you have a brain but it's not functioning!
If i ask you leading questions you will not answer.
What was God's purpose before creation? After that God saw everything he had made, and look! it was very good. Genesis 1:31
(1) To raise creatures that will bring Him praise and bliss each time He looks back at His works.
(2) To harbour resentment against any creature that commit blunders and sustain them in excruciating pains for all eternity.
Pick one.
What brings Him Joy? They have built the high places of Toʹpheth, which is in the Valley of the Son of Hinʹnom, in order to burn their sons and their daughters in the fire, something that I had not commanded and that had never even come into my heart. Jeremiah 7:31
(1) To watch His children who later became His enemies being roasted alive and crying for all eternity.
(2) To return them back to none existence.
Pick one.
If your brain is dead that doesn't mean other people's brains must be dead too nah!
God never created a devil just as no mother gave birth to a thief. The day a child is born the heart of it's mother is filled with joy as the baby moves and cries for food, the mother cuddles her baby and looks forward to seeing the child grow up into an adult one day {Isaiah 49:15} but as soon as the baby reaches the stage to develop it's own personality the mother can only do her best to correct the child not to go astray {Genesis 2:17} at that time the mother's joy could either continue to grow if her child continues taking wise counsel {Isaiah 14:12} but if not then the mother will regret having such a child in the first place! Genesis 6:6
StormInc: Are Jehovah witnesses and Catholics one body in Christ? Is Christ Embassy and Deeper Life Bible Church one body in Christ? Is the Olumba and Celestial Church one body in Christ?
You need to understand what that symbolic term "BODY" means first.
To know why not consider your own body then try to figure out how your body functions in its different parts yet working towards one goal.
Are different religions working towards the same goal?
StormInc: Christians are the most confused religious set I've seen. Yet they claim to be the best. Christianity is divided, in Nigeria alone we have; All using one book (The Bible), following one Jesus Christ yet believing differently. Some say There is Heaven and Hell, others say there is not. Some say Jesus and God are one, others say Jesus is under God (His Son). Some say Jesus was born in December, others say Jesus was born in October. Some say Mary was a Virgin till death, others say she wasn't. Some say Mary is special, Some say she's not. Some say Sabbath is Sunday, others say it's Saturday. Is that not a huge joke? You tell me? CC: vibrantatheist.com
There is just one Christian group out of all the religions claiming Christians globally so it's you who needs to figure out which one otherwise you're joking with your own future!
Ken4Christ: You see why I call JW an anti Christ organization. The Bible says one thing. You say just the opposite. The scripture says that the devil will be thrown into the Lake of fire and be tormented forever and ever - Revelation 20:10. You say no. You are possessed.
You don't understand God's word because God has never, can never and will never torment a living soul it's totally against His quality that's what you wicked soul can't grasp. Jeremiah 7:31
That portion is a parable just like inhabitants of Sodom and Gomorrah remains in people's brains and what comes to our our mind is the wrath of God upon them that's exactly how people will continue to remember that some angels and humans were destroyed due to the wrath of God forever and ever.
achorladey: And your GODS of men cannot follow Jesus footsteps regarding that . Despite being voice of Jesus they said self defense can be done even using force
achorladey: I know your madness and insanities peddling brains cannot process my post well. The reason you cannot comprehend what to serve as reminders Don't start peddling anger over your past. It will haunt definitely. Those are part of what your madness and insanities peddling brains won't accept during those times. It was a sweet delicacy to your brains to call people asiere and asinwin
Aemmyjah: Yes And he treated all, even his opposers with respect
Have also noticed when he once lost it by getting angry?
Jesus forgot that he supposed to remain human all through his trials mistakenly spoke with the voice of the archangel and just see all those that came to arrest him fall down flat as if they're all dead! John 18:6
So Jesus could just use the same voice he raised to resurrect Lazarus to kill his enemies {Revelations 19:21} yet he just choose to run away.
How glad we are learning to imitate God's only begotten son!
Bestbrain123: answer the second question i asked in that post.. First
Well the Jews were expecting a Messiah who will lead them to war against their enemies like David {John 6:15} and Jesus has proved to be the most powerful prophet in the history of their nation so they're annoyed with the things he is saying telling them they need to initiate God who doesn't want anyone to be destroyed the comparison Jesus made really got on their nerves though yet in their own scriptures there is Moses whom God made a God {Exodus 7:1} and God also referred to their rulers as Gods {Psalms 82:6} God also foretold that the christ will be a mighty God in their midst! Isaiah 9:6
So they have no reason whatsoever to attack Jesus who told them that himself and God are on the same page that's what he prayed for that his disciples should also be on the same page just as himself is with his father!
Aemmyjah: He was a man of peace He practiced what he taught He also defended himself (self-defense) There was a time the Jews wanted to kill him and he escaped The son of God himself could have attacked them but he did not. I dunno if I answered your question well. I was not comfortable. It's like a Professor asking a pupil
Highlighted in blue is what i wanted to know!
So the most powerful person can choose to DEFEND himself without hurting anyone, right?
achorladey: And don't forget to keep it as reminders
It's 2024 i could have something to keep if you give me a reason to but when it comes to hurtful words due to past deeds i'm sorry you've given me nothing to remember! Ephesians 4:26
achorladey: Good, I will quench your thirst as at when due. Just keep mentioning me the one you choose to avoid completely and have nothing to do with on nairaland Oh those useless and good for nothing workers of LAWLESSNESS. Your madness and insanities peddling brains collections
OK, Noted. Thanks for your time Sir, do enjoy your week!
Bestbrain123: If look at what Jesus said concerning the hour or day which he is not sure of... you will notice the unseriousness of him with his disciple. JESUS COMPARED HIM SELF WITH HIS FATHER AS ONE how come he suddenly deny his one God personality... from his own beloved disciples in something he knows that is very essensial to them... thats shows the unseriousness of him with them.
achorladey: Your madness and insanities peddling brains still get time to show appreciation Many problems for good for nothing and useless peeling peddler to sort. You go learn consequences of your past. Sort what comes before this first Peace was never a sole property of your madness and insanities peddling brains
Noted!
Hope this is all the message you have for me or there still remains more?
