Kobojunkiee: I am afraid you deceive yourself if you believe that I "criticize" Paul alone in this. I criticize every view expressed in Scripture that is against the declared commandments of God. You have chosen Paul as god to you and that is fine for you but don't for one minute think me as small-minded as you in this.  As for the commissioned, according to Jesus Christ, everyone of His followers is commissioned to go preach His Gospel of the Kingdom of God to the World, not just to the Jews. Peter's acknowledgment of Paul in His letter, does not serve as full endorsement of the views of Paul's letters that you should consider Peter a witness on behalf of all of the views expressed by Paul. According to the Law of 2 or 3 witness, by the accounts of 2 or 3 witnesses, shall a truth(not every truth) be established. And since Peter never in fact points to a particular "truth" of Paul's that he endorsed, I am afraid Peter's acknowlegdement of Paul in his letter amounts to nothing. 
Now, that you can get back to the topic Unmerited favor from a God who is not a God of favor where He is concerned? The doctrines and traditions of men are there to trap you in lies that have nothing to do with God.  God poured out His grace on all of mankind from the very begining... every human being you see is walking around today with the grace of God on them- no exception. However, the righteous men, have even greater grace given them from God, this again, from the very beginning.  According to you, the Law failed to bring man to perfection yet when Jesus Christ showed up as a New Law?
Again, according to you, the Law itself failed to bring men to perfection yet when Jesus Christ showed up, He declared that the New Law was not for those who were already made perfect by the Old Law but for the sinners instead? There were many Righteous men and women living in the time of Jesus Christ, and at least 6 of them are listed in the Gospels. Perfection/Righteousness was very much attainable through trust and obedience of the Old Covenant Law of Moses - God never said there was anything wrong with the Old Law, neither did Jesus Christ. Only God sent His New Law to ease the burden on those who felt the burden of the Old laws too heavy for them to bear - the poor and weary for example.  Gosh! This is why I discourage folks from reading the letters of Paul which were largely written to Christians of a Jewish background! Many of you don't realize the meaning behind the words he uses, but you wedge your very soul against what he wrote. it is ridiculous! What Jesus Christ brought to you was a different agreement /Law/Covenant for a different Kingdom- the Kingdom of God. The grace you have in Jesus Christ is differently designed for Jews(coming from the Old Covenant) and for Gentiles(born dead to God's Law)but it is the same grace(eternal life) for all in the Kingdom of God(Heaven or Hell) without the former requirement that one first become righteous in order to obtain it. 
Yes, eternal life existed to the righteous of Old... Abel, Abraham, Noah, etc., and even those of the Old Covenant. That is why God when He abolished generational curses in Ezekiel 18, redeclared that only the one who sins will die(perish in the grave). The righteous do not perish in their graves but live on eternally. This why Jesus Christ declared that Abraham, Isaac, and the others were not dead(did not perish in their graves) but are instead living, albeit sleeping in their graves.  Go and study more sister. |

For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men, Titus 2:11 Kobojunjie, this is the second time we will meet on a thread you criticize Paul. Anyways, there is nothing you can do about it. He was commissioned by Jesus Himself. Paul said all things he taught and wrote were from the Lord Himself. Gal. 1: 12 You are not more informed than the Paul. If you don't understand his writings why not give time to study? Even Peter, had respect for his writings. I don't think you know more than Peter who learned directly at the Master's feet. 16 For we have not followed cunningly devised fables, when we made known unto you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but were eyewitnesses of his majesty. 17 For he received from God the Father honour and glory, when there came such a voice to him from the excellent glory, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. 2Pet.1: 16 ∼ 17 and And account that the longsuffering of our Lord is salvation; even as our beloved brother Paul also according to the wisdom given unto him hath written unto you; As also in all his epistles, speaking in them of these things; in which are some things hard to be understood, which they that are unlearned and unstable wrest, as they do also the other scriptures, unto their own destruction. 2 Pet. 3: 15 ∼ 16.

LisaAnneMia: I'm sorry o, I just had to chook mouth ...but wasn't Noah's time before the law of Moses was given? (Noah was in Genesis and the law was given in Exodus)
And didn't Noah find grace before God called him righteous? (He found grace in Genesis 6:8 and God called him righteous in Genesis 7:1). Doesn't that mean when we receive His grace we'll be seen as righteous? And it was after he received God's grace that God directed Noah and told Him all he must do to save his life and family's life...oh and the animals too.
And twas after he found grace in verse 8 that the Bible said he was perfect and just among his generations.
So if the coming of Jesus will be like Noah's time, that means that those who received grace first like Noah and then became righteous in the sight of God (cos of the grace they received first), does it mean it's these set of people that'll make heaven? Pls explain.
The hall of faith in Hebrews 11, it was by faith Abel became righteous, and it was also by faith Noah became the heir of righteousness in verse 7. I really don't mind explanations for all these  Grace is an avenue provided by God for man to reach Him after the Fall. God located Abel, Seth( in his time men been to call on God), then Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Israel, then the whole world through Jesus. What is grace? Unmerited favour. That is the popular definition. Yes through. God took man as they are initially, then made.a covenant with Noah, then Abraham and Israeli. These are also Grace because God designed them to reach Him. What is the purpose of grace? 1. Reconciliation 2. Restoration 3. Riches 4. Revelation 5. Restitution 5. Resurrection ....And more as many things as lost in the Fall to bring man back to the original plan. The Law though a form of grace, is to make man know the gravity of sin committed. The grace of Jesus is like a cushion effect because the Law itself failed to bring man to perfection. If you are given to science, I would liken it to a resistor called`shunt` this resistor took about 99.9% of effect of current on the instrument. Don't mind me Someone else can explain to you better but the summary is in Galatians 2:20 I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me. I was with Him on the cross spirituality to meet the needs of Justice. He bore the pain, but I the gains. So, Grace of the Lord Jesus could be given as an scronym: 1. God` s Reconciliation at Christ`s Expense 2. God`s Restitution at Christ`s Expense You could insert the test as re ∼ is to bring back.etc. I am so sorry, I am a bit lazy typing I would have loved to insert many scriptures. Somebody, please contribute to shed more light for this brother and me Al's to learn. Thanks |

Why igodomigodo can never be a descendant of oduduwa EmiratesgoonerApr 10, 2021 4:42 PM
Igodomigodo the present-day Benin city inhabitants, though they are cohabiting with oduduwa descendants from ile-ife
Though some Yorubas are ignorant in their claim of being progenitors of the Igodomigodo race.
Bini is a department of the Igbo race. They left Nri underneath the management of Igodo to observed Igodomigodo due to nso-ani. Hence Bini's language and way of life are comparable to Igbo.
The Bini Igue Festival is borrowed from the Nri Iguaro festival. The Bini 4 days of the week - Eken, Afon, Orien, Nkwon had been borrowed from Nri.
The Bini succession by primogeniture is an adaptation of the Okpalabisi Igbo traditional right that rations total rights of succession to the first son.
The accepted Bini breaking of Kolanut is additionally derived from Nri. 'Onye wetere Orji wetere ndu'.
The New Yam ceremony is elevated over from Nri. It is still celebrated with pomp and pageantry in Benin.
The Ogiso dynasty of Igodo migodo is Igbo. Ogie-so means chief who should be followed.
To date, Nri Priests are vital in the coronation features of the Obas of Benin.
The word okoro which is the finest specimen of the male species amongst Igbos also means Prince in Bini.
Most human beings are unaware that even Bini counting is very similar to Igbo counting.
Know that the Bini nonetheless uses the Igbo word ego, egho for money.
Many Bini cities nonetheless endure their Igbo names until date eg isiuwa, iguobazuwa.
The Benin Prince referred to as Oduduwa /Izoduwa /Imaduwa who left to Ife simply 900 years in the past bears his Igbo title and its meanings on leadership is clear to each Igbo.
Awka blacksmiths developed the Benin bronze works. A clear testimony is the Benin okukor artwork work that was stolen from Benin and celebrated at Cambridge University. okukor is the Igbo cockerel.
Every Igbo and Bini must realise that we are all one blood. We should demure from mutual aggression as we are one people.

Do you think his message was about individuals or the congregation (Church) as one body? Do you think it's all members of these Churches that Jesus was condemning or it was due to the fact that the congregation (Church) as one body allows for such things?

Christianity Etc › Re: The Era Of The Law Was Also Era Of Grace: "But Noah Found Grace In God's Eyes" by MightySparrow: 10:06am On Apr 13, 2021 |
jesusjnr2020: The Era Of The Law Was Also An Era Of Grace
Many Christians believe that God's grace came with Christ, but that's not biblically correct because God's grace was before the coming of Christ. Here's the proof of that:
Genesis 6:8 (KJV)
But Noah found grace in the eyes of the LORD.
Hence for Noah to find God's grace during that era meant that God's grace had been there at the time. It had always been there ever since man fell into sin in the beginning. But it was only the righteous that were able to find God's grace.
That's why Abel the first righteous man on Earth was able to find it and partake of it. Genesis 4:4, Matthew 23:35.
That's also why Noah was also able to partake of it. It was also because he was righteous.
Genesis 7:1 (KJV)
And the LORD said unto Noah, Come thou and all thy house into the ark; for thee have I seen righteous before me in this generation.
At the time God said this about Noah, God had decided to destroy man from the Earth because he had filled the Earth with his wickedness.
Genesis 6:5-7 (KJV)
And GOD saw that the wickedness of man was great in the earth, and that every imagination of the thoughts of his heart was only evil continually. And it repented the LORD that he had made man on the earth, and it grieved him at his heart. And the LORD said, I will destroy man whom I have created from the face of the earth; both man, and beast, and the creeping thing, and the fowls of the air; for it repenteth me that I have made them.
So God wanted to destroy man because of the gravity of man's wickedness, but Noah was found to be righteous in that same wicked generation.
Genesis 6:9 (KJV)
These are the generations of Noah: Noah was a just man and perfect in his generations, and Noah walked with God.
And God said that it was because of Noah's righteousness that he was going to save his life and those of his family members in a generation that he wanted to destroy all men because of their wickedness.
That's how Job found grace in God's sight. It was because he was righteous.
And Jesus said:
Matthew 24:37 (KJV)
But as the days of Noe were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
Therefore what happened in the days of Noah is exactly how the day of judgment would be.
All the wicked on Earth would be destroyed as it was in the days of Noah, but all the righteous would be saved because they would find grace in God's sight as righteous Noah did.
The only difference is that the destruction and salvation for the wicked and righteous respectively in this case would be for eternity.
So while righteous would have eternal life, the wicked would be eternally damned.
Matthew 13:41-43 (KJV)
The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and them which do iniquity; And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth. Then shall the righteous shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.
Jesus' Word is enough for the wise.
God bless. God bless you Sir. You are very correct. Grace is no commodity of any dispensations. This where many people miss it. However, there is the Grace of our Lord Jesus Christ. It makes the grace of God more of a global thing rather than the dealings of God with individuals, family, or tribe. And of his fulness have all we received, and grace for grace.John 1:16. This why Paul emphasized the Grace or our Lord Jesus Christ. The marked difference between The OT.and NT |
Christianity Etc › Re: Your Body Is The Temple Of The Holy Spirit by MightySparrow: 9:44am On Apr 13, 2021 |
MaxInDHouse: The BODY in question is not about individuals but when two or three Christians gather. Matthew 18:20 So when Paul said [/b]"YOUR BODY"[/b] he is talking about the GROUP not individuals! {1Corinthians 6:19} individuals forming the congregation must strive to make their body clean so that God's Holy Spirit will continue to assemble with them anytime they come together in his name! Matthew 18:20 Another lie of JWs! Paul is talking about formication here. I will not be surprised if you say you only true Christian body is one referred to here. Anyways, so many cases of children sex molestation are covered up by the 'Only approved evil organisation' committing fornication together. Can't you read English? This is not Greek or Hebrew, direct and straightforward. Delusion. |
