What do you believe about Jesus?

What are his teachings you believe? I mean many teachings he taught.

Where can we find his teachings other than the Bible?

There are other places
The old testament and new make up the bible you know.

Christians today don't use the old testament

OLAADEGBU:
Jesus said: I am the Way, the Truth and the Life." Do you believe in that?

I believe in Jesus peace be upon him, not what the bible says,

OLAADEGBU:
You are still spinning in a vicious cycle. What exactly are those reasons.

I should ask you, I believe in them

OLAADEGBU:
If so, why did the Jews reject Jesus?

Well... The same reason Christians reject Muhammad peace be upon him

annunaki2:
I won't reveal the secret to an infidel like you.

We have seen TB Joshua
You'll die yourself before that

alBHAGDADI:
[s][/s] Stop misunderstanding Bible verses. Well, below is a hood explanation of that verse.


Mathew 10:34
34 “Do not think that I came to bring peace on the earth; I did not come to bring peace, but a sword.


Did you read the above verse? That verse has been misunderstood by many people in this world. Majority of them wonder why a well known peaceful man like Yahshua could utter such words. Non-Christians have often used that verse out of context to say that Christ supports terrorism and wasn't as peaceful as Christians portray him.

To understand the above verse, we have to understand certain things which will explain the verse better and show how misconstrued the verse has been in the hands of malicious people. Be patient enough to read the below story.

Kareem was born into a devoted Non-Christian family in the Middle East. He loved his God with all his earth and did his best to please him by not questioning the faith as restricted by his religion. However, he stumbled on a Christian book that changed him forever. He started seeing things differently. But the only problem he had was his family members and most especially his country. The punishment his religion prescribes for anyone that leaves it is DEATH.

His father was the first to notice that he has stopped praying and attending their religious house. When he was asked why, he remembered the words of Christ in Mathew 10: 33 which says

"But everyone who denies me here on earth, I will also deny before my Father in heaven."

Kareem couldn't help but confess to his father about his new faith. His father sparked with rage and went straight to the religious house. Little did Kareem know of what his father was up to. Two hours later, a large mob with sticks and stones were gathered in front of his house calling for his head for abandoning their religion. Thank God for the back door, he would have been dead by now. He still couldn't believe his father could want him dead for having a different religious opinion. END

Now that you've read the story, let's see how it relates to the verse. Remember I told you of how the verse is always quoted out of context by malicious people who quote that verse without reading further for more understanding. Let's see the verse again and the succeeding verses. Be patient enough to read through.

Mathew 10:34-39

34 “Do not think that I came to bring peace on the earth; I did not come to bring peace, but a sword.
35 “For I came to SET A MAN AGAINST HIS FATHER, AND A DAUGHTER AGAINST HER MOTHER, AND A DAUGHTER-IN-LAW AGAINST HER MOTHER-IN-LAW;
36 and A MAN’S ENEMIES WILL BE THE MEMBERS OF HIS HOUSEHOLD.
37 “He who loves father or mother more than Me is not worthy of Me; and he who loves son or daughter more than Me is not worthy of Me.
38 “And he who does not take his cross and follow after Me is not worthy of Me.
39 “He who has found his life will lose it, and he who has lost his life for My sake will find it.

From the above verses, we can see that the sword Christ was speaking of is the type that divides. In the case of Kareem, his love for Yahshua the Messiah has divided or separated him from his family as he can no longer visit them cos doing that will be his death. He has decided to be worthy of Christ by obeying verse 37. Same thing applies when you are redeemed from a pagan family, their lifestyle will no longer make sense to you. They won't want you in their midst anymore. That is the division that the sword of Yahshua brings, not the sword that beheads or cuts human parts.
I hope you now understand the verse very well.

If you still haven't, then ask yourself these questions:

1. How come he preached turning the other cheek?
2. How come he prayed for his killers while he was on the cross?
3. How come his message was always love?
4. How come he didn't kill anybody but ressurected a dead man?
5. How come he rebuked Peter for using a knife on a soldier whom he later healed?

I could go on and on...and if at this moment you still dont understand the verse and entire passage, then it means you are not being sincere with yourself.

Peace

Utter nonsense!
How about these

This is what the Lord of hosts has to say: ‘I will punish what Amalek did to Israel when he barred his way as he was coming up from Egypt. Go, now, attack Amalek, and deal with him and all that he has under the ban. Do not spare him, but kill men and women, children and infants, oxen and sheep, camels and asses.’ (1 Samuel 15:2-3

You Have to Kill

Cursed be he who does the Lords work remissly, cursed he who holds back his sword from blood. (Jeremiah 48:10 NAB)
God Promises More Killing

I will make Mount Seir utterly desolate, killing off all who try to escape and any who return. I will fill your mountains with the dead. Your hills, your valleys, and your streams will be filled with people slaughtered by the sword. I will make you desolate forever. Your cities will never be rebuilt. Then you will know that I am the LORD. (Ezekiel 35:7-9 NLT)

Death to Followers of Other Religions

Whoever sacrifices to any god, except the Lord alone, shall be doomed. (Exodus 22:19 NAB)

Kill Nonbelievers

They entered into a covenant to seek the Lord, the God of their fathers, with all their heart and soul; and everyone who would not seek the Lord, the God of Israel, was to be put to death, whether small or great, whether man or woman. (2 Chronicles 15:12-13 NAB)


I could go on too

annunaki2:
We know your evil quoran has instructed you to continually terrorise Christians wherever you find them but islam's days are numbered.

Well congratulations! How many days left?

I knew it! Which one is d Oga at top now?
Dis one no wan tok n his oga at the top will say somtin different

Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth, but a sword. At first glance it indeed appears that Jesus encourages violence and calls his disciples to practice it, presumably righteous violence.
Well.. ..they shall not know peace too

alBHAGDADI:
You expect them to accept Mohammad the pedophile, terrorist, slave trader, murderer, rapist prophet who was telling the world to revenge and kill its enemies when Yahshua the Messiah had told them to forgive their enemies and pray for them?

The same one who ordered the killing of women, babies and animals

Everything is faulty nowadays

Are there humble cHristians today

OLAADEGBU:
The questions was and is: Why do Christians reject the teachings of Muhammad?

Probably because the Jews rejected their Jesus, they need someone to reject too.

It should be a snake

God bless PMB
And Nigeria

It's better if we know the kinds of waters

OLAADEGBU:
Who was Muhammad? What was the message of Muhammad? Why do Christians reject the teachings of Muhammad?

The Jews rejected Jesus peace be upon him, Christians rejected Muhammad peace be upon him, Now I'll ask you what do Christians n Jews have in common?
The answer to that is they all rejected Messengers of God.
Meanwhile, Muslims accept and believe in all of them.
Now think.
