Christianity Etc › Re: Does God Really Know The Future? by MuttleyLaff: 5:14am On Sep 19, 2020
I did warn everyone about the bug, that in order not to get your post hidden and your posting privileges withdrawn, as happened to shadeyinka and others above, just post your comment, and do so, without repeating anyone's previous quote to capture their comment. Dont quote the post, simply just write out the poster name & his/her comments yourself. Don't outright quote, whom you're responding to. It will save your post from being auto-hidden, from withdrawing certain privileges and rewarding you with an ignominious posting ban.

Looks, like Haylel has learnt the hard way, how to use the workaround to quote a poster's comment without having your post hidden plus without getting a ban on top

Janosky:
Bros, Continue to mock yourself and follow the ways of your wayward heart.
Ecclesiastes 11:9-10.
Image123:
One thing i doff my hat for the JWs is the zealous nature to quote scriptures without any relevance to the subject matter. They perhaps use it to feel good like village illiterates out to impress their sponsor for a scholarship. Rejoice mr.

Ecclesiastes 11:9 Rejoice, O young man, in thy youth; and let thy heart cheer thee in the days of thy youth, and walk in the ways of thine heart, and in the sight of thine eyes: but know thou, that for all these things God will bring thee into judgment. 11:10 Therefore remove sorrow from thy heart, and put away evil from thy flesh: for childhood and youth are vanity.
The zealous nature to quote scriptures without any relevance to the subject matter, is called proof-texting, if its not that, then it will be the perfecting art of contextomy and the regular JW membership registration forms sales pitch throw ins.

Revelation 1:14

Revelation 1:14 Interlinear:
and His head and hairs white, as if white wool -- as snow, and his eyes as a flame of fire;
(i.e. no mention of afro or kinky hair, no mention of hairs, having kinks or twisting like African black-shinned people group hair does)

Parallel Strong's:
Holman Christian Standard Bible

"His head and hair were white like wool
(i.e. no mention of afro or kinky hair, no mention of hairs, having kinks or twisting like African black-shinned people group hair does)
— and His eyes like a fiery flame"

New American Standard Bible
"His head and hair were white like wool, like snow;
(i.e. no mention of afro or kinky hair, no mention of hairs, having kinks or twisting like African black-shinned people group hair does)
and His eyes were like a flame of fire."

King James Bible
"His head and [His] hairs [were] white like wool, as white as snow;
(i.e. no mention of afro or kinky hair, no mention of hairs, having kinks or twisting like African black-shinned people group hair does)
and His eyes [were] as a flame of fire;"

Parallel Verses
International Standard Version

"His head and hair were white like wool, in fact, as white as snow.
(i.e. no mention of afro or kinky hair, no mention of hairs, having kinks or twisting like African black-shinned people group hair does)
His eyes were like flames of fire,"

American Standard Version
"And His head and His hair were white as white wool, white as snow;
(i.e. no mention of afro or kinky hair, no mention of hairs, having kinks or twisting like African black-shinned people group hair does)
and His eyes were as a flame of fire;"

Young's Literal Translation
"and His head and hairs white, as if white wool -- as snow,
(i.e. no mention of afro or kinky hair, no mention of hairs, having kinks or twisting like African black-shinned people group hair does)
and His eyes as a flame of fire;"


The word "like" means similar or nearly the same, so Revelation 1:14, reveals that Yahshua Ha Mashiach aka Jesus Christ' head and hairs, were similar or nearly the same as the white wool pictures seen above and not no afro or kinky hair, no hair having kinks, turning, curving or twisting like African black-shinned people group hair does is ever suggested, but you donnie, ignore the head and for reason best known to you, conveniently centred, focused and zeroed on only to the hair alone, leaving out the head that was mentioned in the verse. Why? Revelation 1:14

The alternative word "as" seen in Revelation 1:14 describing Yahshua Ha Mashiach aka Jesu Christ' head and hairs, is used in comparisons to refer to how to the same degree or amount, Jesu Christ' head and hairs is just the same as the white wool pictures you see above. No afro or kinky hair, no hair having kinks, turning, curving or twisting like African black-shinned people group hair does is ever suggested or indirectly called attention to in that Revelation 1:14.

You just like taking panadull for another man's headache. The most annoying is you calling people, idiots, claiming they said Phyno looks like Jesus because he has oyinbo hair, when not one single poster used "Jesus and oyinbo hair" together in their comment about Phyno's look or appearance in the picture. He was referenced by a commenter, to look like Jidenna Theodore Mobisson, mononymously known as Jidenna, the Nigerian-American rapper, singer, songwriter and record producer, another said he looked like Jesus or trying to play Jesus role in a movie and while another commenter pointed out the resemblance of Phyno to looking like low budget Jesus Christ.

I would rather someone say I look like Yahshua Ha Mashiach aka Jesus Christ, we are according to to look and be like Yahshua Ha Mashiach aka Jesus Christ, than to look like the devil aka satan or look dark, suggestive of evil, sinister, suggestion of little light, no light or absence of light

Was MESSIAH described as having wooly/afro hair in Revelation 1:14? Capital NO, the MESSIAH was not described as having wooly afro hair in Revelation 1:14. Stop typing as if like some goofy air head, high on weed.
Christianity Etc › Re: Eli Eli Lama Sabachthani: Messiah Spoke Bantu Language by MuttleyLaff: 6:02pm On Sep 18, 2020
MuttleyLaff:
I guess, the time is here, now is one of the time, I'll like to break and eat bread with you, lol

Brother donnie, to start with:
1/ What language did Yahshua Ha Mashiach aka Jesus, the Messiah, the Anointed or Christ, depending on what is your preference, spoke?
2/ What language did the disciples and even the inner caucus disciples conversed, deliberated with our Lord and Saviour of the whole wide world earth?
3/ What language is the spoken "Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani" (i.e. Mark 15:34) and really "Eli, Eli, lama, sabachthani" (i.e. Matthew 27:46) done in?
4/ What to your understanding is the Matthew 27:46 & Mark 15:34 - "Eli Eli _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _" (I've deliberately blanked out, so to talk more and/or indepth on it, later)
5/ What is the meaning of "lama" and "sabachthani" in Bakor (Bantu), Aramaic and Mishnaic Hebrew?
6/ Why did Yahshua Ha Mashiach utter "Eloi, Eloi/Eli, Eli, lama, sabachthani" on the cross at Calvary?
7/ To whose benefit did Yahshua Ha Mashiach utter out "Eloi, Eloi/Eli, Eli, lama, sabachthani" on the cross at Calvary?
8/ I watched that "40+ Bantu Names in the Scriptures" YouTube clip, you didnt explain that Simon means reed and Peter or Cephas in Greek means rock.

"Then he took Simon to Jesus. Jesus looked at him and said,
"Your name is Simon son of John, but you will be called Cephas."
(This is the same as Peter and means ''a rock.'')
'
- John 1:42

Peter's old and/or original/former name, was Simon, which means reed, this to the fact that, he practically, was a wavering person by nature, who just like a river water reed, tall, grass-like plants of wetlands, goes/flows in whatever direction the wind blows it. Anyway, Yahshua Ha Mashiach, renamed him to Peter, signifying a transformation to become resolute and rock steady, lol. You stopped short of acknowledging any of these information/knowledge

There is more to talk about and over this interesting topic "Eli Eli Lama Sabachthani: Messiah Spoke Bantu Language" and I am holding back, amd not asking further grilling questions, just so you dont get to want to withdraw into a shell or bend down to bury head in sand.

Donnie, I hope you dont take me as an intrusion or as something of a negative nature. There is a colloquial in the Western part of the country, that says "orukọ, ma nro niyan" loosely translated means "Names and/or naming, have negative or postive propulsion on the bearer" People say how can God leave Adam alone in a garden with an unprotected "dangerous" but forget Adam wasnt a baby and that Adam had the singular privilege to name animals and so have the responsibility to give them genera/genuses and species names.

Each time God is asked what is your name. He conceals what it is and/or avoids telling except for saying "I AM that I AM". So the tetragrammaton, which is YHWH, is the closest we have of what God's no doubt Omnipotent powerful name is. Why is God not trusting us to know what specifically His Name is. Donnie, please c'mon nah, dont try to push YHW/Yah/Yahweh/Jehovah/YAHUAH,. Even Abba, that was mentioned in that YouTube clip, is a mere endearment word, a sweet nothings, affectionate name like "sweet potato, dahling, dear, my tomato, sugar plum, babe, baby, black coffee, queen, ayaba, olori, mami, big poppa, lollipop" etcetera. I think you feel me and do get my drift.

What's the point I am making here, trying to do it in a very careful and/or gently manner is that you're seem to understand the thread's heading and its subject matter not thoroughly and/or deeply enough which has led you to treat it in way that's feeble, light and lacking depth.

Lets Nike this. Lets Just Do It. Flesh this baby out. Blow it wide open and put the devil to shame, lol. Are you on. Are you game, lol. Afterall iron sharpens iron mehn, lol.

I dey come grin

6 & 7 are answered in my response to question 4. smiley
6/ Why did Yahshua Ha Mashiach utter "Eloi, Eloi/Eli, Eli, lama, sabachthani" on the cross at Calvary?
7/ To whose benefit did Yahshua Ha Mashiach utter out "Eloi, Eloi/Eli, Eli, lama, sabachthani" on the cross at Calvary?

You did not give any answers to 6 & 7 above, your response was to signpost me to a prooftexted verse and a vague answer to question 4 as your answer to questions #6 & #7, while you earlier, made a shameful attempt to equate the meaning of " ... sabachthani" to be, mean and stand for sabbaths. Smh.

Nothing spoilt, just read on


MuttleyLaff:
The thing is "Eli Eli lama sabachthani" is Aramaic
Watch this, most people' last words are very profound, and Jesus' is no exception to this.
Jesus as a dying man, hung on a cross, uttered seven famous dying last words

1) Luke 23:34 - Father, forgive them, for they do not know what they do.
2) Luke 23:43 - Truly, I say to you, today you will be with me in paradise.
3) John 19:26-27 - Woman, behold your son. Son Behold your mother.
4) Matthew 27:46 & Mark 15:34 - My God, My God, (this bit I've blanked out, to reveal more on it, later)
5) John 19:28 - I thirst.
6) John 19:30 - It is finished (or "It is accomplished'')
7) Luke 23:46 - Father, into your hands I commit my spirit.

The first of the last four words, (i.e. famous words #4)
were said, for the benefit of the disciples, which is why it was spoken in Aramaic (e.g. "Eli, Eli, lama, sabachthani'')
It wasnt spoken in an unknown tongue, it for crying out loud, was spoken in Aramaic.

Jesus, for the benefit of the disciples, uttered in Aramaic the purpose of His mission/assignment
(i.e. the reason all those things were happening, the reason why He was created or the reason why He came to exist)
He then, after declaring that the purpose (i.e. the process for salvation) is finished or accomplished,
excused Himself with the "Father, into your hands I commit my spirit" last word

Jesus chose His word very carefully and didnt speak impetuously when He used "Eli, Eli, lama, sabachthani"
Jesus, actually was paraphrasing, the beginning of Psalm 22 (i.e. Psalm 22:1),
just like He paraphrased the end of Psalm 22 (i.e Psalm 22:31)
MuttleyLaff:
The bible says Jesus came to die.
Not to have a woman, not to have a thing for men.

God gave Jesus to die for our sins, period.

Jesus, confirmed this, at the ninth hour, on the cross at Golgotha, the skull-shaped hill in Jerusalem, when He said "Eli Eli Lama Sabachthani"

"Eli Eli Lama Sabachthani" when correctly translated, means:
"My God, My God, this is why You kept me"
or "My God, My God, this is My destiny" (i.e. I was born to do this)
or "My God, My God, this is what You permitted"
or "My God, My God, this is what You allowed"
Christianity Etc › Re: Must A Rich Man Give All He Has If He Wants To Follow Christ? by MuttleyLaff: 6:01pm On Sep 18, 2020
onenaija001:
Hi guys, I am still curious about what Christ told the young rich man about selling all he has and giving to the poor in Matthew 19:16-30, Mark 10:17-31, and Luke 18:18-30?
I brought this up because some Churches always bring these bible passages up, while others say Christ is not poor so Christians are not supposed to be poor.

Lalasticlala
Bible 101, is that you surprisingly as soon as you become a believer, means you've signed up for willing to go anywhere, do anything and give up everything in order to achieve the goal of the Gospel and will of God, by any means lawfully necessary.

Matthew 19:16-30, Mark 10:17-31 and Luke 18:18-30 was not a teaching for the body of Christ per se, but it was for a self-satisfied, smug and self-congratulatory, puffed-up, self-approving, pleased with himself, I am-all-right-Jack rich young man and ruler because Yahshua Ha Mashiach, aka Jesus Christ, had a good insight, x-ray and clinical understanding of the deepest working of the rich young man and ruler's heart. He knew the rich young man and ruler, would willing give everything up except for his riches, wealth and worldly possessions, so after the rich young man and ruler was done with his elaborate posturing and grandstanding, Yahshua Ha Mashiach, aka Jesus Christ, put it to him, that he needs to give up his doted riches, wealth and worldly possessions in order to have treasure in heaven and then step forward, to follow Him.

The real lesson in that narrative isn't really about "riches, wealth and worldly possessions", but it is about self-righteousness and hypocrisy. In the rich young man and ruler's eyes, thinks he is perfect, thinks he ticks all boxes correctly, thinks he is complete, thinks he is in the same league of the best thing since sliced bread et cetera, but penetratingly far-seeing zoomed down and zeroed in to the very thing that has a vice grip hold on the rich young man and ruler. His riches, wealth and worldly possessions, he can never let go for anyone, not even for a kingdom's sake. He is impressed by his money, riches, worldly possession and his social status as a ruler, but not impressed by how the poor can be taken care of. The rich young man and ruler, passed every thing except having a duty to promote the welfare of the poor.

onenaija001:
... I brought this up because some Churches always bring these bible passages up, while others say Christ is not poor so Christians are not supposed to be poor.

Lalasticlala
"Judas did not say this because he cared about the poor, but because he was a thief.
As keeper of the money bag, he used to take from what was put into it.
"
- John 12:6

"Since Judas was their treasurer,
some thought Jesus was telling him to go and pay for the food
or to give some money to the poor"
- John 13:29

Churches who always bring these bible passages up are biblically undereducated and are suffering from chronic truth decay, from not regularly brushing with the Bible

If Yahshua Ha Mashiach, aka Jesus Christ, really was poor, do you think, while dying of the cross of Calvary, why would the Roman guards be throwing dice to see who will win collecting and having Yahshua Ha Mashiach, aka Jesus Christ' clothes.

If Yahshua Ha Mashiach, aka Jesus Christ, was poor, how come Him and the disciples, had a money bag that Judas, as treasurer, was in charge?

1/ How would you produce the first product and what will it be called?
2/ Then secondly, how would you plan to go about reproducing this your same first product, with same quality, same distinct marks, over and over and over again, so you have a successful inventory, you are able to distribute, replenish and overwhelm the world with?

Karanka:
Sir, I read through your response and I honestly couldn't find any logical reason why satan is still free and roaming about causing havoc on earth.
How exactly has Satan personally caused havoc on earth in your life?

Karanka:
It was something that had to do with God, Adam, Eve and satan, why involve the rest of humans?
Karanta, if somehow you manage to give the correct answer to this question, then you'll understand the angle why the rest of humans are involved my sweet dear loveable and reasonable friend.

"1Then the LORD said to Moses,
2“Look, I have specifically chosen Bezalel son of Uri, grandson of Hur, of the tribe of Judah.
3I have filled him with the Spirit of God, giving him great wisdom, ability, and expertise in all kinds of crafts.
4He is a master craftsman, expert in working with gold, silver, and bronze.
5He is skilled in engraving and mounting gemstones and in carving wood. He is a master at every craft!
6“And I have personally appointed Oholiab son of Ahisamach, of the tribe of Dan, to be his assistant.
Moreover, I have given special skill to all the gifted craftsmen
so they can make all the things I have commanded you to make:
7the Tabernacle; the Ark of the Covenant; the Ark’s cover
—the place of atonement; all the furnishings of the Tabernacle;
8the table and its utensils; the pure gold lampstand with all its accessories; the incense altar;
9the altar of burnt offering with all its utensils; the washbasin with its stand;
10the beautifully stitched garments
—the sacred garments for Aaron the priest,
and the garments for his sons to wear as they minister as priests;
11the anointing oil; the fragrant incense for the Holy Place.
The craftsmen must make everything as I have commanded you.”"
- Exodus 31:1-11

Now, here's the question Karanka:
If you blessed, as if just like Bezalel in Exodus 31:1-11 above, but this time around, with the creative idea of how to produce, say something like a coin, as in the picture displayed above seen, please tell:
1/ How would you produce the first product and what will it be called?
2/ Then secondly, how would you plan to go about reproducing this your same first product, with same quality, same distinct marks, over and over and over again, so you have a successful inventory, you are able to distribute, replenish and overwhelm the world with?

Karanka:
Why not use the live of Adam and Eve and prove that man cannot rule himself?
Is that what exactly is panning before our eyes ni?

Karanka:
Why involve generations upon generations of people to suffer for what didn't directly involve them?
"When the foundations [of life] are undermined, what can a righteous person do?"
- Psalm 11:3

A&E, ignoring God's warning, with a stubborn and determined intention to do as one wants, regardless of the consequences, involved generations upon generations of people to suffer for what didn't directly involve them

"[i]so shall My word be, whatever shall proceed out of My mouth,

"
- Isaiah 55:11

Blabbermouth, word up, fyi, just merely speaking itself and in itself, is an act of creation, as you are creating and forming distinct meaningful elements of speech, lmso, expressing your thoughts and feelings by/with articulate sounds.

2. Why use a video? Why use scriptures? I have seen the scriptures, so? Give me your own plain answers to each of the questions please.
The video, is to give an idea of what the Greek world "exerchomai" is. I used scripture as corroborative evidence. Your wish is my command:
1. What was Yeshua's will concerning the cup He was to take?
Answer>>>
Yeshua's will concerning the unsavoury cup was hedging against drinking it

2. What was God's will concerning the cup He was to take?
Answer>>>
God's will was that the cup be drank

3. Whose will was done, God's will or Yeshua's will?
Answer>>>
It is the former's will that was done.

Blabbermouth:
3. Dead on arrival! If God projected himself and multiplied into 3,000, all of them MUST/WILL have the same WILL! If they don't, they are definitely not the same!

Masturbation is far better than rape and patronizing prostitutes.
Masturbation and "patronizing prostitutes" with consent, actually is far better than rape. If life long caring, faithful, committed, truthful, honest, loving each other in a beautiful lasting life-long, loyal and most importantly, monogamous, same-sex relationship, free of hate, free of lust, free of envy et cetera and that has no detriment, injury, damage, harm to each other, no betrayal of each other, or no cheating on each other, and not causing hurt to each other, another person, an animal, object or neighbour, heterosexuals/SSA approach mutual masturbation as a rich and rewarding form of sexual expression, it would improve their sex lives so much.

Interestingly enough, there are two prostitutes and one "prostitute" in Yahsua Ha Mashiach aka Jesus Christ genealogy.

Somebody please pass this my guy, MrBrownJay1, this chilled bottle of orijin. Plus send him a truckload of kolanuts as well and after that, consider him sharp sharp, next governor in waiting of his state of origin.

Right on point on the greatest pleasure on earth is "freedom". Wehdone Sir! Please drink responsibly though.


MrBrownJay1:
Sadly, anyone controlled by a holybook cannot understand that because they have to abide by that holybook' s rules and regulations (not their own)
There is no imaginative sadness anywhere and I am yet to see any "holybook" put a gun to anyone's head, threatening to blow the person's brain out, if he/she doesn't abide by the "holybook's" so called rules and regulations

MrBrownJay1:
God is "your" everything, while there are people out there whose everything is bigger than what your God allows you to do/feel/be/experience etc
God is Omniscient. God is All. God, whether you acknowledge it or don't acknowledge it, is God your everything too, albeit if only you allow Him to be so.

There are people out there whose everything is bigger than what God allows them to do/feel/be/experience et cetera. Case in point, A&E's everything was bigger than what and all God allowed/permitted them to do/feel/be/experience et cetera. With the greatest pleasure on earth: FREEDOM, as you succinctly put it, abused and misused and with the departure of God from A&E's sphere of influence, A&E confusedly become gods in ruins.

You see my dear friend, it is no secret that all creativity/creation each have the fundamentally right of existence and by rights, this means they're to exist and to, without arm-twisting, hindrance, coercion, force, threats, duress freely express themselves,

One of the deepest secrets, is that, life is a process of discovery, a process of creation, as it were. You are discovering yourself, you're writing a script as you develop characters, and thus, you're creating yourself as you want to be, hopefully anew.

Honestly speaking my dear friend, God honors creativity/creation, actually His creature particularly; human beings that is and allows them to be participants in their own creation. Why? I sense you asking. Well conventional wisdom, has it that, a man is only truly ever complete and human once he has reached theosis.

Here is another point, whatever creativity is, it is in part, a solution to a problem, but creativity requires experience and experience comes from life while your life is, you with the freedom of experience and freewill, expressing yourself. Now, watch carefully, the magic that occurs, when you give a person just enough comfort, to be themselves. Case in point, Satan, Adam and Eve, Pharaoh, Balaam, Judas Iscariot, King Agrippa, our very own, NL world Religion forum famous Tamaratonye5, even you too yours truly MrBrownJay1 et cetera and et al.

God respects His creation/creatures, respects your creativity, your creative space, hence the reason why you have the gift of freewill. The power to talk anyhow you want to talk, to type anyhow you feel like typing ...

The greatest thing about life is this. The acknowledgment of God in life. This is the greatest example and what we all should be doing in everything. Giving gives thanks from knowing that, in all things, God works for the good of those who love Him, who have been called according to His purpose.
Knowing that God works all things for our good

Bottom line, we are not prisoners of a predetermined future (i.e. an already prior written script) but we are giving the freedom to determine what and however we want to be

"Jesus said to them,
“If God were your Father, you would love Me, for I proceeded forth and came from God;
nor have I come of Myself, but He sent Me.
"
- John 8:42

In John 8:42 above, "exerchomai" is the Greek original word, translated as "proceeded forth". By definition, it means, to go or come out of, with mention of the place out of which one goes, or of the point from which one departs. So, John 8:42 above, makes no mistake, where from, Yahshua Ha Mashiach aka Jesus Christ proceeded forth and came out from.

I am in a generous and kinder mood, so will save you, going to lift up the floorboards yourself

The Greek word "morph" used in Philippians 2:6 above, carries the sense of "shape/reshape", "change", "modify", "switch/switching", "transform", "transfigure", "transmute", "shift",

You find the word used with meanings, in such words as: amorphous, anthropomorphism, metamorphose/metamorphosis

1/ Whose bidding, respectfully, do you think "son" will be doing?
2/ Is "son" not you, the "father"?
3/ Is "son" not distinct from you, the "father"?
4/ Is "son" and you the "father" not the same person known as Blabbermouth?
5/ Does "son" not see you the "father" Blabbermouth, do good things?
6/ Does "son" not have the same power as you, the "father" Blabbermouth?
7/ Did "son" not come from you, the "father" Blabbermouth?
8/ Is "son" not equal to the "father" Blabbermouth, yet not clinging to that status, so to fulfil all righteousness in that way, hmm?
9/ Would "son," being you the "father" Blabbermouth, have the ability and power to see into humans' heart, know their thoughts, tell what they're thinking, or what they desire, just like you the "father" Blabbermouth have that ability to do, hmm?

i think the sensible question to ask would be; if God in his so called glory could influence pharaoh by hardening his heart, why couldn't he also influence pharaoh by softening his heart?
This is typical of a question not full of common sense asked. Smh.

God didnt not frigging influence Pharaoh by hardening his heart. Pharaoh was a willing participant to hardening his heart up. God gave Pharaoh ten set of circumstances to make and let him soften his heart. Ten times is was given. Ten times Pharaoh refused. He squandered the all ten softening his heart opportunities.

Balaam had only one opportunity, and that one opportunity, he used it wisely.

I mean as long as no one else is harmed or exploited to obtain them, where’s the harm? I mean what else is there anyway?
There is nothing wrong with pursuing earthly sensual and self indulgent pleasures, inasmuch, it is done the 3 Rs concurrently - the right time, the right way/moment and still remaining on God's right side/good side.

The point is that, the greatest hedonism one can have in life is when in the midst and whole of it all, God is glorified and when we are most satisfied through Him. Ultimate hedonism, physical and spiritual pleasure, personal or intimacy between one and partner, should be a greatest pursuit of pleasure, that is the pursuit of pleasure in Yahshua Ha Mashiach aka Jesus Christ, in the ever presence of God, such manners that God is glorified and you are, whatever is, are pleasurably satisfied, most, in Him.

From your post i can deduce you are not only living in bitterness, but you are also confused person. because whether the message was preached in house on the rock on in your family house. it was also preached to his followers( his own church members and online followers). you think all this your bitterness towards servants of god like bishop oyedepo and other ministers of righteousness can amount to anything? the earlier you understand that you hurting yourself by been bitter against god's anointed the better for you. the tithe you are complaining of, how much tithe did you pay? have you ever paid tithe to any of them? if not, then you have a problem with yourself which i advice you fix immediately.
MuttleyLaff:
Christians and believers can tithe if they so decided in their heart and are not coerced, being forced people to give, aren't getting threatened with fear of curses, calamity or misfortune if they don't give an imposed and/or obligatory ecclesiastical monitised tithe giving. As long as specified financial demands aren't forced on people, it isn't a prob. If people willing and on their own initiative give tithe, that's OK

Let's just go there. There really is no stipulated/specific percentage on giving, for believers. All God requires, is a cheerful giving, that you decide in your heart without being forced or coerced to give. As a matter of fact, it is any amount that you're comfortable with and be in accordance to the level of grace you've received, only that there is a caveat that whoever sows sparingly will also reap sparingly, and whoever sows generously will also reap generously

The Greek original word, "die", used in Matthew 23:23, means, it is necessary, to tithe
and so when that necessity is over, that obligation, duty or responsibility to tithe, is no longer required or needed
It was under that or those then present circumstances, that people like al\BHAGDADI dont understand, that Jesus says to tithe, and not the thereafter

People like al\BHAGDADI and others, dont want to recognise that the only tithes used to be given to God were:
1) the Levitical tithe aka Mosaic Law tithe, which are given to God via the priest (e.g. Levite)
and
2) the Abraham type of tithe, given to God, via a priest cum king (e.g. Melchizedek)
- see #3 below

Other tithes in a secular world context (i.e. tenth, 1/10, 10% and possibly 0.1) also given are:
1) At pagan temples to priest(s) (note al\BHAGDADI extra biblical references will be provided upon your request, same with #3 below)
2) Upon the king's demand's (note al\BHAGDADI bible references also will be provided upon your request)
3) To a local ruler cum priest of a god or God, worthy of the consideration, after taking up arms, go to fight and winning battle fight(s) or war slaughering enemies

Now this is breaking it further down for easier understanding for the likes of al\BHAGDADI and others
1) There is obligatory tithe imposed by the Mosaic law (i.e. the Levitical tithe also known as the Mosaic Law tithe)
2) There is obligatory tithe imposed by the christian gatherings law
(i.e. ecclesiastical tithe, where christian gatherings, taxes its members tenth, 1/10, 10% and possibly 0.1 too, of their financial income)
3) There is obligatory tithe imposed by custom law (i.e. Abraham's tithing was done, due to the social setting of that time)
4) There is obligatory tithe imposed by monarchy law (i.e. tenth of seed and of vineyards, given to the king's officials and servants)

Now, there is another, which is voluntary tithe,
The nuance in this sort of tithe or tithing, is that it isn't imposed by the Mosaic law, not by christian gatherings law or by any custom law. For the attention of Horlufemi, this one, this so called "voluntary tithe" happens or occurs, when FREELY, one DECIDES to GIVE, a tenth of one's financial standing, as a form of contribution or donation toward's any Kingdom purposes, aid or means. In fact, the beauty and tithing subtle difference, is that, it is NOT obligatory or imposed

Bible writers and God use the terms, tenth and tithe interchangeably. So if I voluntarily give 10%, a tenth or 10 out 100 of my money contribution or donation toward's Kingdom purposes, aid or means, I technically have given a tithe. Considering that it is not a taxed, obligatory or imposition tithe, then I am free, to go ahead voluntarily giving it

All tithes or tithings, are a form of giving but NOT all giving are a tenth, tithe or tithing because the giving could be more or less than a tenth, tithe or tithing

The Bible's message today, is about a revolutionary way of giving, where believers are instructed or urged as in 2 Corinthians 9:7 above

Giving could be 50% today, as in 50% equals half of your money
Giving could be 10% next month, as in 10% equals a tithe, tenth, or 10 out 100 of your money
(i.e. voluntary tithe, voluntarily giving 10%)
Giving could be 100% following month, as in 100%, equals all of your money
Giving could be 0% following month after, as in 0%, equals zero goes out of your money
Could decide to give 1% month following after, as in 1%, equals 1 out 100 of your money
The giving cycle is not fixed, it might repeat or not repeat itself
How much you give, changes according to the amount or percentage, you willingly over the passage of time, decide to give

It is the freedom, to give whatever you're comfortable with cheerfully. This sort of giving regardless of the percentages is desirable but not obligatory. Without stipulating amounts to give, you're are being trusted to know, to do the 3 right things

You must each decide in your heart how much to give.
And don't give reluctantly or in response to pressure.
(i.e. you shouldn't be sorry that you gave or feel forced to give)
"For God loves a person who gives cheerfully."

- 2 Corinthians 9:7

It is obligatory, taxed or imposed tithing that Christians cannot tithe

It is imposed tithing, it is dead with the law and believers are not obligated to perform any form of imposed tithing

What al\BHAGDADI and others he is in cahoot with dont want to correctively preach, is that the Bible teaches the "church" the revolutionary way of giving, where believers are instructed or urged in 2 Corinthians 9:7 above, to do

2 Corinthians 9:7, by the way actually, is a rehashed principle God HAS always endorsed, as evident in Exodus 25:2, Exodus 35:29, Deuteronomy 15:10 & 1 Chronicles 29:9

al\BHAGDADI and anyone can go check out Exodus 25:2, Exodus 35:29, Deuteronomy 15:10 & 1 Chronicles 29:9 to find out that God is doing a full circle with this give as you determine in your heart without being under compulsion

I respect him for daring to call out such church leaders for their mammon worshipping as Jesus had done the Pharisees of His day, however I sensed that he was getting carried away with it to a large extent, and such an unwarranted utterance was an indication of that.

He shocked me however with his apology, because I viewed Freeze as quite arrogant so for him to humble himself and offer such an apology, it's by no means a small feat on his part.

He earned more of my respect as a result because it's human to err, but any man who does something wrong but feels too big to humble himself and say "I'm sorry" when he realizes that, cannot claim to be a follower of Christ because that's as Unchristlike as it could possibly get.

So i'm waiting for the other two church leaders (Paul Enenche and David Ibiyeomi to apologize to Freeze for calling him a bastard, threatening his life among other things, otherwise they'd hence prove that Freeze is ahead of them at least in this area.

God bless.

"Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites!
for ye are like unto whited sepulchres, which indeed appear beautiful outward,
but are within full of dead men's bones, and of all uncleanness.
"
- Matthew 23:27

"1“Shout with the voice of a trumpet blast.
Shout aloud! Don’t be timid. Tell my people Israela of their sins!
2Yet they act so pious! They come to the Temple every day and seem delighted to learn all about me.
They act like a righteous nation that would never abandon the laws of its God.
They ask me to take action on their behalf, pretending they want to be near me.
"
- Isaiah 58:1-2

The scribes, the teachers of religious law and Pharisees in Matthew 23:27 above, were all older and senior to Yahshua Ha Mashiach aka Jesus Christ, yet He didnt mince words with them. He never called a spade, a hoe, but He consistently called a spade, a spade

OK, since you asked about what the readership think, then, I am thinking that why not, please paste here, where, when and how, on that Instagram post, Freeze, out and out, mentioned Oyedepo's name.

I also, am thinking that do you know what a shriek is?
Are you familiar with how bald headed fowls shriek?
Are you familiar with above Isaiah 58:1-2, concerning the necessity to cry out aloud, sparing not, lift up voice like a horn and declare unto God's people their transgression. Confront them with their sin(s)!?
Is Oyedepo absolved of insulting others or even slapping a defenceless young girl, hmm?

Tbh with you, I find it unforgivable cringeworthy when Oyedepo interjects the air with his occasional high, grating, shrill, irritating screams. They are off-putting and distracts from following the message and point he is trying to make or put across

Disclaimer:
Absolutely no forum rule "#11. Don't create distracting posts with: ALL WORDS BOLD / huge font sizes / ALL CAPS / distracting imagesspaces, etc" sic was harmed or flouted before, after and during the creation of this post, so please, pro-Oyedepo & overzealous "the powers that be" dont hide my post or ban me.
If you are able to produce an incontrovertible proof audio or black and white print, of Freeze, ever unreservedly wholly and completely heard uttering an Oyedepo name or typed an Oyedepo name, then I will gladly and pronto terminate my NL account and forever kiss NL hasta la vista after the world comes to an end
