AkinwaleJJ: Jesus' death is for everybody be it good or bad person Jesus died for your sin, the sin humans are committing outside the garden of Eden is of no weight compared to what Adam did, so Jesus' death is to pay off the debt brought upon the entire human race. But the benefit will be applied when God's Kingdom come. So the only difference is while those following Jesus' teachings will find it easier to stand trials that may jeopardize our chances of gaining life due to the wise counsel in it, unbelievers will find it extremely difficult to withstand such trials. Satan will still be until God's Kingdom come and he will continue to make life miserable for people in general. But all those who stick to Jesus' teachings will come out victoriously without blemish for the hope of a brighter future ahead while unbelievers will end up becoming Satan's agents due to hopelessness. But believers and unbelievers experience this. In fact I meet depressed Christians who have been struggling with all kinds of trials too. Other than the idea of heaven, there is no difference between Christian's and others. The irony is some Christians who are chronic borrowers yet they keep quoting the bible that they shall not be borrowers but lenders. Christians fall sick just like others, struggle with sins just like everyone else. You'll probably meet some more diligent and morally upstanding non-Christians while the Christian's are lazy and not even as moral. Unless you're in denial you know there isn't any difference besides the idea of heaven. |

xproducer: Despite the fact that true believers are human, and still have the sin nature they were born with... In the eyes of GOD there is a difference!
The Great Flood "Then the Lord said to Noah, “Come into the ark, you and all your household, because I have seen that you are righteous before Me in this generation." - Genesis 7:1
This applies to all whom the Lord GOD has clothed with His righteousness, by His mercies, in and only in the Lord JESUS CHRIST.
If one is the Lord's, He will teach and guide you continually.
"The steps of a good man are ordered by the Lord, And He delights in his way. Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down; For the Lord upholds him with His hand." - Psalm 37: 23-24 You quoted from old testament scriptures, that's more of Jews than Christians. What is the difference as someone in the new covenant, so to say. |

AkinwaleJJ: Those three points you emphasized aren't Jesus' problem! He came to help sinners gain everlasting life, that means sinners are still in the prison where their ancestors A&E threw them. What Jesus came to do is pick those willing among the sinners, train them how to gain God's approval even in their condition and encourage them that they can succeed if they are prepared to assist one another. So the challenges, struggles and forces attacking them will continue to be there until God comes to remove it for them. All they need to do is support one another during the hard times. He never asked them to condemn anyone as long as the person is willing to keep on exerting himself to make amendments through his teachings! What then is the purpose of Jesus' death and ressurection if there is no difference? I honestly don't see it. If you do pls share. |

You keep ranting about Obaseki and PDP godfathers because as a hypocrite you have turned a blind eye to the greatest godfather of the past 15hrs.
A man who loaded 2bullion vans on the eve of an election.
Shame on you for supporting evil where you reside while pretending to be concerned about it far from home
This level of hypocrisy needs to be studied and awarded a prize.
Really you can't be this naive. PDP introduced Godfatherism and now their accusing APC of godfatherism?
Even you should know they're only playing you and the gullible Edo masses.
Edo state is still under godfathers, Obaseki only switched sides. As always, time will tell. |

AkinwaleJJ: Hmmmmmmmmmm, i think everyone could just do that! 
It's really simple unless if you're not interested in the man Jesus himself. All you need is to study his words diligently, note his likes, dislikes and things that excites him then observe the religious group that's applying it in their tenets. That's all
I believe everyone can do that after all the Bible says a lot about him, unless if you don't really gbadun the man's ideologies! You seem not to understand the post. The person Jesus is a given, you can understand him through the bible. The question is how come there seems to be no difference between a Christian and others. A Christian just like other struggles with all what the bible calls sins. A Christian like others struggles with the challenges of life. A Christian is even more likely to be consumed by spiritual forces simply because he believes in them. What then separates Christians from others? |

The real comes from the printing and minting section of the CBN while the fake may be printed by other means, both will appear exactly the same, when it's time to spend it (make use) then the real will buy you things but the fake remains ordinary paper. That's why Jesus himself spoke extensively on how to distinguish between future fake religionsists that will claim Christians and original! May be you could help cos how then does one differentiate them? |

Due to this i dont protect myself whenever we want to flex. Its just skin to skin everytime.
Am afraid if care/caution is not taken she might take in one day.
We flex like 2-3times a week because thats what she wants.
What preventive measures/steps can we take/adopte to avoid pregnancy? We are not ready for that now until we get married.
Doctors/nurses in the house help. Nobody likes condom (rotection) but if you're not ready for STI and marriage, you better know how to make her adjust to protection. Remember, you have 1 life to live. |

The whole idea of Christianity is all about how Christians are to be identifiable by the grace of God upon them, their relationship with the Holyspirit and living in victory over enemies and challenges through faith in Christ.
I have been a Christian but this was not my reality. Which made me question the bible.
Recently a christian pastor murdered his own wife just like an unbeliever could. Which makes me question, is there even any difference between a Christian and others? |

Christianity Etc › Re: There Is Nothing Like Rapture In The Bible by Myer(m): 11:09am On Sep 20, 2020 |
paxonel: The truth be told, we are not reading bible, we are simply following laid down doctrines to believe in rapture. Every scripture that we thought they were explaining rapture were all written to explain something else entirely far away from rapture,it takes reading to discover that, but unfortunately people don't read. All we needed to do was to read the whole chapter of these scriptures and draw a conclusion of what the chapter was explaining and relate the conclusion with the very verse we thought it was taking about rapture, For instance :
Matthew 24: when you take time to read the whole of Matthew 24, you will discover that Jesus Christ was telling his disciples what will happen in the last days which is what Daniel the prophet prophesied that it will happen. It was as if Daniel was talking about what will happen in the days of Jesus Christ on earth when he will come and die for the sins of mankind, not anywhere in our current day or our future. So, invariably, the last day referred to the day Jesus was to be crucified and resurrected, not our future. It was called the last day or end time because it marked the end of the long lasting old covenant and the beginning of the new covenant through Christ.
1 Thessalonians 4:16 is another verse of the bible that the doctrine of rapture was obtained from. The full explanation of this scripture according to Paul is in 1Corinthians 15:35.
Actually, 1 Thessalonians 4:16 was talking about another kind of end time which refers to the end of one's life and the resurrection of the dead.
In 1 Corinthians 15:35 Paul started by asking this question
1 Corinthians 15:35 But some man will say, How are the dead raised up? and with what body do they come?
When you read the whole of that chapter till the end, it explain how the dead are raised, not rapture. Because Paul didn't start by asking the question how is rapture going to be? Why? Because there is nothing like rapture. Rapture is never the picture of what the bible was trying to explain in these scriptures, infact there is no word like RAPTURE in the bible(Google it if you are doubting)
Well, already we still have the rapture doctrine steak to our head because we have been brainwashed into it for many years, so people keep talking about it, but the truth is there is nothing to fear. Yes the word rapture wasn't used but adopted to describe the event stated in Matthew 24 and Luke 21. However, even when those signs described and even far worse have continued to happen over and over again, since even the days of the apostles, the rapture has remained in future tense. |

I'm 35years old lady and I'm not yet married. My elder sister is 37years old, still not married. My female younger cousins are in their early 30s too but not yet married. They said it's forces from the family but we have carried out all sorts of deliverance but no way. We are all graduates, doing well and very beautiful. I'm almost giving up hope on this marriage matter. Please I need a solution to this problem�� Dear pastors and Christians, can you explain this? Is it that darkness is now comprehending light? No evil force should over power someone who relies on God like this. Yet there are so many in the churches. Dear OP you're not alone. If you do find someone you're interested in make it know to him. It does not mean you should toast him but you could invite him to movies or any thing that might interest him and see how it goes from there. Don't overspend so he doesn't take advantage of you either. In this generation, rules don't always apply. |

Christianity Etc › Re: That We May Have Sex With Them! by Myer(m): 9:43am On Sep 20, 2020 |
elated177: El Elohe Yahshrael!
Genesis 19:4 Before they had gone to bed, all the men from every part of the city of Sodom—both young and old—surrounded the house. 5 They called to Lot, “Where are the men who came to you tonight? Bring them out to us so that we can have sex with them.”
When the Scripture says "both old and young", it didn't mince words. It meant exactly what it says. There is no inner or deeper interpretation required. The boys and men of Sodom desired to have homosexual relationship with the men who were inside Lot's house.
It could be inferred from this passage that the abominable act of homosexuality had become so pervasive in Sodom that all the boys and men knew and had slept with one another. It could be seen that they saw new or fresh faces and were, therefore, tripping over one another in order to have a taste of them. What a shame! What a degrading level of human existence!
The parents and guardians are mostly responsible for the sexual perversion - homosexuality and lesbianism - which their children and wards engage in. Heck! Some of them even directly push their sons into male prostitution. Wickedness!
It has been clearly stated in one or two of my threads that homosexuality and lesbianism are tied to demon worship. The spread and acceptance of these abominable acts are signs of the end of the age.
The end of the age is fast approaching. Religion and religious houses are spreading and multiplying very fast, but the Truth is becoming more rare and even more scarce. Wicked and unrighteous people are increasing in number, while the upright and righteous people are reducing in number. This shows that their religion is worthless and their religious houses are mere clubs and recreational places. The wickedness that abounds in the society is an indictment!
Matthew 24:10 Then many will fall away, and betray one another, and hate one another. 11 And many false prophets will rise and will deceive many. 12 Because iniquity will abound, the love of many will grow cold.
What can you do?
If you are practising these abominable and detestable acts, turn away from them and turn to your Creator for mercy, forgiveness and redemption.
Your prerogative!
El Elohe Yahshrael! Hallelu Yah! But the word of God says darkness cannot comprehend light. How come evil is overcoming good? Honest question. |

We should just remain indifferent and hope for the best ??
Your take I believe this verse answers the question. 1 Corinthains 6:2-3 Or do you not know that the saints will judge the world? And if the world is to be judged by you, are you incompetent to try trivial cases? 3 Do you not know that we are to judge angels? How much more, then, matters pertaining to this life!

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. That what the bible and Jesus said. Which is why rich people find it difficult to be Christian's. In fact the moment you become rich, you will see why the bible said it is more difficult for a rich man to enter heaven than enter the eye of a needle. That's why all these prosperity preachers must be followers of another christ and not Jesus Christ. |

Everyone gains knowledge from reading or exposure, but has the knowledge yielded any verifiable results? Kenneth Haggin is one of the prosperity preachers that are only after your money not your integrity. What the world is suffering from is integrity and that is becaus churches that should be preaching truthfulness and integrity are preaching prosperity. And last time I checked it was Satan that preached prosperity to Jesus in the wilderness. Note that I didn't say God is against prosperity but your pastor should be more concerned about your transfromation from a sinner to an upright person through whom others and the society can be influenced to follow Christ. |
