ayenny02: You are poinless and you don't have anything to say. Have u accepted what I challenged u for? With my proof, .that there is no trinity and is bible holy? And if you accept that let's open another trend to challenge us.
I don't have time to read any trend just open another trend to challenge me and pls if you see any contradiction in Quran of any case against Islam, go and learn arabic b4 anything. That's only thing that make islam remain ORIGINAL ARABIC QURAN today unlike Bible that has no original bible

1 John 2: 20-23 (NLT)
20. But you are not like that,for the Holy one has given you His Spirit, and all of You know that truth
21. So i am writing to you not that you don't know the truth but you know the difference between TRUTH AND LIES.
22. AND WHO IS A LIAR, ANYONE THAT SAY JESUS IS NOT CHRSIT (MESSIAH). ANYONE WHO DENIES THE FATHER AND THE SON IS AN ANTICHRIST.
23. ANYONE WHO DENIES THE SON DOESN'T HAVE THE FATHER(GOD) EITHER. BUT ANYONE WHO ACKNOWLEGDE THE SON,HAS THE FATHER ALSO.

God Bless us all.

10. All those who believe in the Son of God knows this testimony is true. Those who don't believe are actually calling God a liar because they don't believe what God has testify about His Son.
11. And this is what God has testified: HE HAS GIVEN US ETERNAL LIFE AND THIS LIFE IS IN HIS SON.
12. WHOEVER HAS THE SON HAS LIFE; WHOEVER DOES NOT HAVE GOD'S SON DOES NOT HAVE LIFE.

1 John 4:3-6(NLT)

3- But if someone claims to be a prophet and does not acknowledge the truth about Jesus Christ, that person is not from God. Such person has the spirit of ANTICHRIST,which you heard is coming to the world and indeed is already here.
4- But you belong to God, my dear children. You have already won victory over those people,because the Spirit that lives in you is greater than the spirit that live in the world.
5- those people belong to this world and they speak from the world point of view andthe world listen to them.
6- BUT WE BELONG TO GOD, AND THOSE WHO KNOW GOD LISTEN TO US. IF THEY DO NOT BELONG TO GOD THEY DO NOT LISTEN TO US. THAT IS HOW WE KNOW IF SOMEONE HAS THE SPIRIT OF TRUTH OR THE SPIRIT OF DECEPTION.

1 John 5: 10-12

10- All who believe in the Son of God know in their heart that this testimony is true. Those who don't believe this are actually calling God a liar because they don't believe what God has testified about His son.
12- Whosoever has the SON has LIFE, WHOSOEVER THOSE NOT HAVE GOD'S SON DOES NOT HAVE LIFE.

ayenny02: If you can't explain it very well, I will explain it for you because you don't understand your bible and ur religion.

Jesus said in john
John 4:24
24 God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.
And in
John 5:37
37 And the Father himself, which hath sent me, hath borne witness of me. Ye have neither heard his voice at any time, nor seen his shape.

Also paul that misleading u people said;
1 Timothy 6:16
16 Who only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can see: to whom be honour and power everlasting. Amen.

That is God from jesus and paul

Now about holy spirit;

Matthew 1:18
18 Now the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise: When as his mother Mary was espoused to Joseph, before they came together, she was found with child of the Holy Ghost.

COMPARE NOW WITH LUKE 1:26-27

Luke 1:26-27
26 And in the sixth month the angel Gabriel was sent from God unto a city of Galilee, named Nazareth,

27 To a virgin espoused to a man whose name was Joseph, of the house of David; and the virgin's name was Mary.

So in miraculous birth of jesus, mattew mentioned the Holy Ghost and luke mentioned the angel Gabriel. What is the Holy Spirit then?

Do you still believe in trinity now?

So God is God, the Holy spirit or holy ghost is Angel Gabriel and Jesus is........ (What) from my explaination, if u get it I WILL GIVE U ONE COPY OF QURAN unless you contradict ur Bible
nawa for you o, i will not reply you again,i can see you are blind,you quote just Luke 1:26-27 and said that it was gabriel that was sent to mary and He is the Holy Spirit...what about that same Luke 1:35
And the Angel answered and said to her, ''The HOLY SPIRIT will come upon you and the power of the most high will overshadow you:therefore also,that Holy one who is to be born will be called the SON OF GOD.

Shame on you.
I will tell you again even though i know you can't fathom it-Jesus is the son of God and He is God.
The Holy Spirit(the Spirit of God,the Father) entered mary and gave birth to Jesus,hence Jesus is God.
Good night,Jesus loves you no matter what you people do,accept Him today.

he did not dogde,you are the one twisting the Bible...check my comments again and stop twisting the Bible,i don do that for u...check again my comment.
Christianity EtcRe: UK Priest Allows Muslims To Pray In His Church, Hit By Abuse On Facebook by Mintayo(m): 8:16pm On Apr 25, 2013
ayenny02: Can u tell us different btw God, Jesus and Holyghost
there is no way i will explain that you will get it because you lack the Spirit of God within you,you will only end up twisting or argueing further.
But just to let you know not proof as you have been shouting since morning-

(2 Cor 13:14)
The Grace of our Lord Jesus Christ(the son), the love of God(father) and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit(His Spirit) be with us now and forever more. Amen

look at it this way- Jesus was born by the Holy Spirit of God(if u believ that) and He became Jesus-so you see Jesus is God.
That is,It was the Spirit of God that entered Mary and she gave birth to Jesus(the son).
(the quran even said so,that Jesus is God's Spirit)

If you don't that,then...

Sorry God didnt only breathe his spirit into Jesus both to all mankind starting from Adam(as)


Starting from Adam

"But He fashioned him in due proportion, and breathed into him something of His Spirit. And He gave you (the faculties of) hearing and sight and feeling (and understanding): little thanks do ye give! (Quran, 32:9)"


Not a biggy stuff that God did dsame to Jesus(as)

"And (remember) her who guarded her chastity: We breathed into her of Our Spirit, and We made her and her son a sign for all peoples. (Quran, 21:91)"

Why is that the name Jehova can never be found in new testament bible...why didnt Jesus call God yahweh or jehova instead he shouted Eloi

[size=18pt]

15“Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves[/size]
1 million likes,
i wonder where the priest put that in His Bible...no mosque will ever allow christains to pray in their mosque-i am talking from experience;all muslims are the same-they are all wolves in sheep's clothing,it is just that some know how to tame the wolf inside them(for a time).

And some of them will say UK is a christain country...
Lets follow this thread,very soon you will hear that the man has been slaughtered,that was what quran (mohammedic Allah)thought them...marry their daughters,migrate to their country,have many children,but when you are more than them,turn them to islam(terrorists),if they refuse...killing things...

Seun: What would you like me to do about it?


So many good people have commented on this thread. Deleting it completely is equivalent to slapping every one of them in the face. I can't possibly do that. By the way, We absolutely do not hide threads where politicians are abused. If any moderator is doing that, it's contrary to my explicit directives. You should report such cases to me so I can correct them. I think that any true religion can stand against criticism. THE THINGS BEING SAID HERE ARE NOT WORSE THAN WHAT THE PHARISEES SAID TO JESUS AFTER ALL, AND YET HE PREVAILED. God doesn't need to be protected by us.
Hmmm@the bolded,i believe what you said,the pharasee did more to Jesus(even paul did worse,yet he failed and he was saved) and YET HE PREVAILED,THERE IS NO AMOUNT OF CRITICS,RANTING,HATRED CAN CHANGE THE FACT THAT GOD IS GOD, AND JESUS CAME TO DIE FOR THE WORLD,SHED HIS BLOOD AND ROSE THE THIRD DAY...NOBODY CAN CHANGE THAT FACT...THE PEOPLE HERE ARE SO SMALL TO DO THAT...JESUS LIVES FOREVER...HE IS THE SAME YESTERDAY,TODAY AND FOREVER...
The Bible says anyone that doesn't believe that Jesus is Lord and His offer of salvation is of the Devil,so i am not surprised,these people are agents of darkness who are being sent to speak against Jesus(AND HE ALSO DIED FOR THEM AND HE IS READY TO ACCEPT THEM IF THEY REPENT),but just like THEIR FATHER THE DEVIL,they will not succeed,bcus even their father the devil knows the truth and he trembles and he is also working to bring so many ppl to destruction...it is just so unfortunate that NL has become a platform for the ANTI-CHRISTs To pass accross their message(of which it is expected)...its shows that this is the end time indeed.
(THE THINGS OF GOD ARE FOOLISHNESS TO THOSE THAT PERISHES).

My fellow christains,please hold unto what you believe(BCUS NOBODY CAN CHANGE MINE,JESUS IS THE LORD OF MY LIVE,HE IS MY SAVIOUR,THERE IS NOTHING ANY DEVIL IN human can do about that),hold unto Jesus,the author and finsher of our faith...the only hope of the world,the saviour of the world-(the devil beheld His glory and tremble)...and don't forget...as many that are led by the Spirit of God,they are the sons of God...the Lord knows those that are His.
HE COMETH SOON.

Romans 3:22-26 (NLT)
22- we are made right with God by placing our faith in Christ Jesus. And this is true for anyone who believe no matter who we are.
23- for everyone has sinned;we have fallen short of God's standard.
24-yet God, with undeserved kindness,declares that we are righteous. He did this through Christ Jesus when he freed us from the penalty for our sins.
25-for God presented Jesus as the sacrifice for sin. People are made right with God when they believe that Jesus sacrifice His life ,shedding His blood. This sacrifice shows that God was been fair when he held back and did not punish those who sinned at the time past.
26- for He was looking ahead and including them in what He would do in this present time. God did this to demonstrate His righteousness,for He himself is fair and just, and He declares sinners to be right in His sight when they believe in Jesus Christ.

Thank You Jesus.
Accept God offer of salvation today,tomorrow maybe too late.

One of mine favourite Bible verses.
Romans 8:35-39.

35-WHO shall seperate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or unclothedness, or peril or SWORD?

36-As it is written: ''for your sake we are KILLED all day long: we are counted as sheep for the slaughter''.

37-Yet in all these things we are more than CONQUEROR through Him(Jesus) who love Us.

38- For i am persuaded that neither DEATH, nor life,nor Angels,nor principalities nor powers, nor THINGS PRESENT NOR THINGS TO COME.
39- Nor height, nor depth nor any other created things shall be able to seperate us from the love of God which is in CHRIST JESUS OUR LORD.
Amen.

adoniza: Bro, if God did give us "free-will", then it simply means that we have choices, and that no one can "tell" what we would be doing in the next 20 min including "God himself".

So if God does not know what I would be doing in the next 20 min, then he is not "Omniscient".

And if he is not omniscient then the "bible lied"

Nohuh??
bros,i won't like to go into arguments with you...i won't even try and convince you because it is not my Job to do that...
But i want you know that God has given us the abilty to choose(either life or death).
Even at that we human will still complain if He choose for us(and i believ that what He tried to avoid).
God is omni-potent,Omni-present and Omni-science(dn't ask me to proof,cus i wnt).
He gave Adam a choice- and He ensure that He didnt interfare in His decision bcus He knew that Adam will blame Him jus as He did to eve if He interfares. (He even blamed God for given him eve)And Adam choice actually brought him consequences.
God knew the consequences and He told him...so it was left for adam to choose.
God knows what you will do in 20mins time and He knows the consequences or results too but He will not interfare...He will leave you to do it and the results will also come with it,imagine if he tries to choose for you and d results is bad,then you will continue to complain again that it was Him.(He had done that before and we made Him regrets it).

Also,God has offer us a gift; salvation through Jesus Christ.
Sin came to the world through Adam and salvation came through Jesus...and when we are born,we are born with a sin-ful nature,Jesus came to give us another nature-God's nature.
And God has given us the will to decide(choose) to accept His offer of salvation(Jesus Christ),but reject this also have consequence and He will not force us to accept it.

Make a decision today and accept Jesus as your Lord and personal saviour,tomorrow maybe too late.

Jesus loves You,I love you,
God bless us all.

On a serious note, it takes only FAITH to believe these things.. and any other of the religious stories that exist..
Yes,that is what it takes,Faith in Christ Jesus, His offer of salvation...

Christianity EtcRe: Was The Sacrifice Of Jesus On The Cross That Big A Deal? by Mintayo(m): 10:02am On Apr 24, 2013
God is a wonderful God,He gives us free-will(the ability to choose),He will not force us to do anything,it is only Satan that uses force-God does not tamper with our will, so we can decide to give our will to Him or to follwo satan- but we should all know that whatever we do,will always bring consequences-most things that we see happening is as a result of our action-God will not interfare in our affairs unless we invite Him,if we don't invite Him,He won't interfare(a gentle God)-He will only be waiting for us to come back to Him,but we don't He won't force us-i think that one difference between Him and satan,who will want to interfare by force,whether you invite Him or not.
But as for me,i have made that decision many years ago,to submit my will to God, to follow Him and believ and accept His offer of salvation(Jesus Christ) and nothing and nobody can change that...not even anybody in this NL.
As for me and my household...WE WILL SERVE THE LORD!

I can't just imagine what is written here.
There is no point trying to proof anything,there is no point of trying to show that Jesus came,died and rose again.
Whether you believe it or not,whether you accept it or not,it does not matter or change anything...all the comments here does not and will not change anything,it will not change the fact that God is God,that Jesus died,rose and ascended to heaven,there is nothing anybody can do about that,there is nothing anybody can do about the millions christain in the world.
(...the Lord knows those who are His),
So continue to argue,curse and rants...these will not add anything or remove anything from God and will not change the fact that Jesus is Lord, and He died for the sins of the world and He is coming back real soon!
So letus all think about what will happen when we die,where are we going after death...May God bless us all!

dougivilla: About 32 years ago, this ministry like many others started, but unlike many that have long closed up, its still growing in leaps and bounds.

In all fairness don't you think a ministry that has survived this long deserves commendation? At least we have a bright side to the whole scenero. How many nairalanders are up to 30 years old? How many of us have tried running business ventures, even for a calender year or two without running it under? Even if the man no dash people money as una dey think say him suppose to, are you aware that the commission has in its employ, over 150,000 active employees as Pastors, lecturers, drivers, security, teachers, caterers, bankers, attendants, accountants etc and many more as contractors, technical partners, consultants and other indirect employees?

Imagine that we have up to 100 of such institutions in Nigeria, do you think we would still have as many jobless people as we currently have on NL moving from thread to thread, seeking for whom to run down?

People will always quarrel with what they can't comprehend. Bishop David Olaniyi Oyedepo is simply a phenomenon, God has made him the next wonder of the world and theres nothing anyman can do to whom God has blessed
Quit the hate and keep on working hard and praying. If he can do it for the bishop, He can do it for me and you!

Mark 12:30-31.
30- And you must love the Lord your God with all your heart,all your soul,all your mind, and all your strength.
31- the second is equally important: ' Love your neihgbour as yourself'. No other commandment is greater than these.(i.e all other commandments are embedded in this).

Christianity EtcRe: If Someone Slaps You Would You Turn The Other Cheek. by Mintayo(m): 2:08pm On Apr 21, 2013
Deep Sight: Jesus' teaching in this regard is very misguided and wrong indeed. It is in fact a very dangerous pacifist ideology which would lead the world into anarchy and impunity if adhered to. If people believe that when they hurt other people, the victims would "turn the other cheek" then such people would lose any sense of consequences/ retaliation and continue to act with impunity. There would be no sense of deterrence.

If someone slaps you, the correct thing to do is to slap him right back with overwhelming force and ten times over for that matter. That way, he would immediately learn his lesson and would not attempt such again. In fact, in so doing, you would have made him a better person through discipline and learning the consequences of his actions. You would have taught him that every action begets a reaction and made him wise to the laws of Karma and Nemesis. You have in fact done him a favour

Spare the rod and spoil the child, is another way of saying it: from same scripture, no?

I was watching the series "Merlin" and I saw an episode in which there was a band of robbers who attacked a village every year and seized their ENTIRE harvest, killing anyone who dared to keep back even a morsel to eat and survive. When Arthur arrived on the scene he taught the villagers to FIGHT BACK and protect their harvest, killing the robbers if necessary. This is the CORRECT teaching, and falls in sync with the laws of nature: i.e - survival of the fittest. Maybe Saint Jesus would have taught otherwise? Arrant nonsense.

Weakness is a sin.
this is not weakness. What will you gain by retaliating? What joy would you derive?
What Jesus was saying there is simply ''forgiveness''.
Not slapping back or retaliating is not weakness,it is maturity-talking from experience.
