There is freedom of Religion & Association in Nigeria, so don't tag every association or gathering as Christianity, not even those that call the name Jesus.

How can we know the association that is Christianity?

AntiChristian:
Okay, Grace is (in Christian parlance) unmerited favor!

Grace was never defined by Jesus but Paul.

Paul started the concept of Grace!

Ephesians 2:8-9: "For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— not by works, so that no one can boast."

2 Corinthians 12:9: "But he said to me, 'My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.' Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me."

Alright....does Paul explanation of the concept of grace as you have quoted negates the fact that one can be justified by his or words on the day of judgment as stated by Jesus?

I THOUGHT AS MUCH. LITTLE WONDER YOU KEPT DRAGGING ME BACK. YOU OBVIOUSLY DON'T UNDERSTAND THE TENETS OF CHRISTIANITY.

IT WAS NICE KNOWING YOU!

Are you saying that the tenets of Christianity are not biblical? Is Christianity based on personal opinions?

DeDonniesHomes:
Be Frank to me. YOU ARE NOT A CHRISTIAN. I'M I RIGHT?

How does this question give an answer to My question. Are you saying I have to be a Christian for you to tell me what the Bible says about how the body of Christ should be like?

No shocks! No Suprises!
It is the Endtimes.
We are in the Last of the Last of the Last moments.

It is the Season and times of all sorts of Iniquities, evils, abominations and gimmicks even with the Name of Jesus Christ.
The devil does not want to be in Hell alone!
He is so desperate for souls to package to Hell with him and is doing everything possible.

You just need to WATCHFUL and PRAYERFUL so you are not a Casulty of these Endtimes.
Live every moment in the Conciousness of your Eternity.
Live Prepared! Live Ready!
In a Twinkling of an Eye! All who have stayed steadfast in JESUS CHRIST will be gone.

Are you saying that this pastor and his church is fake?

StillDtruth:
As i have told you before, you are mad person or a person with down syndrome to not know what everyone knows hence why you ask extremely very stupid umending questions

So these threads here prove that hell is here In the physical realm?

DeDonniesHomes:
"Is that the way it's supposed to be in the body of Christ?"

AND

"biblical contradiction between churches is allowed?"

ARE OBVIOUSLY 2 DIFFERENT THINGS.

Your approach is an obvious twist.

Lol.....the problem you have is that your stand on how it is supposed to be in the body of Christ is not biblical.
You are just giving us lamba based on your personal view....and when i tell you to prove your view biblically, you say my approach is wrong....is that not funny?

What we have in the body of Christ today is not just different personal preferences but contradictory biblical doctrines which was not allowed in the early church. Is the present church not supposed to copy the pattern of the early church?

DeDonniesHomes:
Even saint Paul and Saint Peter had varying views on certain aspects of the Gospel.

It got to the point when Saint Paul had to school Saint Peter that, "You cannot put a new wine in an old jar". Meaning you can't continue to mix up the old Testament with the new. For if the old was perfect, the new would have been needless.

It is human nature to vary in views and opinion.

There was another time God gave Saint Peter (in a vision) some creeping beast to eat and Peter responded with "The Lord Forbids" (since the old Testament forbids them to eat such) . But God responded with why do you forbid what the Lord has cleansed.

What is contained in Scriptures was inspired by the Holy Spirit, based on each authors work and experience with the Lord.

In today's world a lot has changed, thus reshaping significantly how we practice our faith to how it used to be.

For instance, women were not even allowed to speak in church, let alone preach. In those days, if she has a question, she can only pass it to her husband at home.

But today, women even preach in church and actively participate in a lot more church activities.

You see that aspect of "women not speaking in church", was cultural. In those days, women generally weren't allowed to speak in public, most especially when vital matters are involved.

Therefore, a general cultural global-change led to an immediate change of that belief.

Culture shapes religion and vice versa.

For example, dress code is a cultural aspect of life that is embraced by religion.

If an Isoko man wears wrapper to church he is still within context, if a Scottish man wears skirts to church, he is also within context because a skirt is a man's wear in his culture.

Life is more complex than BLACK and WHITE! And YES! there are TRUE and FAKE churches. But Even among the true churches, they do not approach all aspects of doctrine same way because some aspects of doctrines are dogma.

I don't have strength for arguments, the day is too fresh to start this way.

~ selah.

The examples you are giving have to do with individual personal preferences which does not lead to contradictory biblical doctrines. You are confusing individual and cultural preferences with contradictory biblical views of a matter.

Oga where did Saint Paul and Saint Peter have contradictory view of the gospel? I will like to know.

Who gave women the permission to preach in church today In the presence of Christian brothers?

How can you differentiate between a true and false church since you've claimed that biblical contradiction between churches is allowed?

StillDtruth:
So you do not see and hear people say they are in hell or that hell came to them? Boy, i nk dey your end not stupid questions. If your eye no dey see na your problem.

Who and Where are these people that you are referring to?
And how do we know that their testimony is true?
And does the Bible support their testimony?
