[s] Yes that's why most "Adult Christians" will never make heaven...read Luke 18:16 [/s]

error, error, error!
All christians are already in heaven incase you don't know

We think we are wise as adults.
Do you know there was a case in Kaduna where Christians were ask to deny Christ so they might live? The moment they denied Christ they were all killed immediately

that means, some how they have perceived that their denial wasn't true. Let's say they didn't succeed, atleast they tried something which is far better than nothing.

... what is so exiting in this country that someone would really want to live for, if I have that opportunity I would gladly die and go to heaven, Nigeria is stage 1 he'll fire...

it's simple, go to the north and preach yourself if you really want to die grin

May God deliver her from her captives in Jesus Name.

To human reason you are right...... but what gives the assurance that she will be released after conversion. She did the best.

atleast she would have tried something.
Better than if she did not try at all.

stevenakp:
if thou shall confess with thy mouth... and believe in your heart....ROM 10:9

it goes together bro.

you better be realistic when you read your bible.
Confession in that scripture is all about being convinced, you know there is a way you are convinced about an issue before you know it, it escapes your mouth.
For instance, if I did not know about Jesus and you come to preach Jesus to me, the moment I'm convinced of your preaching the next thing that will come out or escape out of my mouth is, of a truth Jesus is the Christ based on what you preach. What I have just done is, I have confessed Christ, at that point, my salvation begins there,That is what Romans 10:9 is trying to explain.
Confession is always associated with conviction and denying Christ also comes with conviction too.
So, Leah can actually say I deny Christ with his mouth, then it will take her inner conviction for that denial to be affective.
meanwhile, deep inside her, her conviction is Jesus Christ is her savior, that conviction she got it long time ago.
See, that will now be between her alone and God who justifies her, no third party, Boko haram becomes powerless thinking that what she saying is true.

Whoever seeks to save his life will lose it, and whoever loses his life will preserve it. Luke 17:33

Then Jesus said to His disciples, “If anyone desires to come after Me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow Me. For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake will find it. Matt. 16:24-25

all these scriptures are not correlating at all with what we are saying grin

Sir, are you sure you've given your life to Christ or you're just practicing the religion ?

these are words of Jesus, do you believe them or you think he must be stupid to have said that ?

Sincerely bro, You've not met Christ.
if you're really concern about your soul give it thought.

I know you will bash me, but you've gotten my message.

If you deny Him before men, He will deny you before his father.

Not all who calls me LORD, LORD will enter into my kingdom.

please direct your preaching to non christians or Muslims

[s]with the mount confession is made unto salvation, it's not what goes into the mouth that defiles, it's what come out of the mouth, our words direct our live issues[/s]

Misused scriptures!
Confession implies the point where the individual is convinced that Jesus is the Christ such that he exclaims, of truth Jesus is Christ. At that point of exclamation out of conviction, that is the confession. At that point the individual is saved.
so understand the scripture you are quoting, it is saying something totally different from denying with the mouth while at the same time heart proclaims it, which is very possible.

.... our words are very important,

words may be important, but they do not have any effect, only actions do have effects. Therefore, we will know whether your words are true when you begin to act. If you don't act, then your words are mere rhetorics.

why is denouncing Christ such a big deal, the devil knows the power of the tongue, it can do and undo on earth and in heaven...

bros, you are just being African here!
The tongue do not have any power, absolutely nothing.
Mere talking cannot do anything except one acts, Don't be deceived.
The bible says faith without works is dead, so if there is no action, your talking is simply dead.
That's why you Africans pray so much but no result. White men don't pray, they work and their world is far better grin

you're bringing Islam into Christianity, they're two wide worlds apart, it's impossible to stand in between.
This is the most confusing statement I've ever heard...
a Muslim is permitted to deny Islam provided his heart doesn't deny it

I'm not bringing Islam into christianity, i didn't even know that this is permitted in Islam. However, if Muslims are already thinking like this then obviously, it is a simple application of common sense found in every sensible human whether Muslim or christian.

.. but it's not so for a Christian it's such a big deal, whenever such test comes up heaven and hell will be in attention to see if that Christian can bow or not, there so much involved...

this is big lie, there is no scriptural basis for this your assertion

Christianity Etc › Train Crushes CAN Chairman To Death In Taraba ( What Will Be Freeze Response?) by paxonel(op): 6:41pm On Mar 25, 2018

The Taraba State chairman of the Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN), Ben Ubeh, is dead.

Ubeh reportedly died after he was crushed by a truck transporting sugar along Jalingo-Yola Expressway.

Eye witnesses said the incident occurred in Zing community along the expressway in the morning hours of Sunday, March 25.

Also, a Taraba state government official, who asked not to be named, confirmed the incident saying “the state would release an official statement on the accident that claimed Ubeh’s life.”

Meanwhile, the owner of the truck is yet to be identified. Also, there was no plate number on the vehicle but an inscription of BT 0104 on its front side.

What if she still gets killed after denying Christianity or they may even have accident on the way while returning. She would have denied her faith and yet she eventually died

she has not denied her faith, she only tell them I have accepted Islam and denied christianity for her to get her life back, but deep inside her, she knows Christ is her savior and nothing can come into her heart and thought to change that, not even death.
That is how to be wise.

I tell you, Joseph of arimathea secretly believe in his heart that Jesus was the Christ, yet he sat among the Pharisees pretending to be one of them.
Now, that is wisdom

kastroud:
firstly I would like to note that the minuter there is something like intelligent Christianity that is the same time I would stop being a Christian. Christianity is not about being intelligent if it was so don't u think Christ could have used intelligence to escape the people that wanted to kill him rather than die on the cross the truth is that there is no intelligence in Christianity if not we would not have had martyrs. the girl did a very brave thing and if u have not been inspired by her then I have I'll leave it like that.

you are very wrong here o,
You don't compare Christ and his mission on earth to human lives there is no correlation there.
Christ came on earth strictly to die and bring salvation.
Humans were not meant to die to save mankind like Jesus. But inspite of that, i think Christ is the most intelligent human that has ever lived on earth before he was crucified, read the gospels.
Humans were created in the image of and intelligent God and his likeness from the beginning to subdue the earth, read Genesis.
Now, it takes intelligence or education to subdue the earth, so if you are not intelligent or educated, you only have eternal life which Christ has given to you for free, but that life will be waste, cos you are not intelligently using it.
You will just die for nothing.
A scripture says my people perish because they lack knowledge.

So i will adjourn you to take school seriously if you want to live a successful christian life on this earth grin

To claim Islam is to deny Christianity.

And there is a lot bad about that.

yes, this is basics you are getting wrong.
You are not a christian for anybody to be inspired or know who you are.

Yes, it is good to inspire people
,
But the truth is,
You are a christian for Christ.
Jesus Christ knows his own, he bears witness in his spirit that you have the spirit of God which makes you a christian, he does not need any human evidence or until you proclaiming or denying christianity to people before he judges to know your stand whether you are his own or not.
he deals with exactly what is in your heart, not what you say out for people to hear.
I will prove all these things scripturally.

Then she becomes like Muslims cos that's what their religion preaches.

SAHIH INTERNATIONAL
Quran 16:106
Whoever disbelieves in Allah after his belief... except for one who is forced [to renounce his religion] while his heart is secure in faith. But those who [willingly] open their breasts to disbelief, upon them is wrath from Allah, and for them is a great punishment;

This is permission to LIE.

Do you know why Muslims called themselves slaves of Allah? Cos Allah permitted them to deny him. A true child will never deny his father. Muslims aren't Allah's children cos he calls them slaves, that's why they can deny him at will. But a true child of God will never deny his Heavenly Father.

We Christians are children of God through Jesus Christ the Son of God.

She become like Muslim temporarily does not mean she is a Muslim .
Among the chibok girls who were released some time ago there were some of them who were christians. During their captivity they were like Muslims as their captors tried everything possible to indoctrinate them into Islam for many months. Now that they have been released they have been rehabilitated back to their true religion christianity.
They remain christians inspite all the boko haram efforts.
What does that tells you?
It is not easy to convert someone who was born and brought up by a parent of a particular religion into another religion by mere conquest or blur indoctrinations.
That individual will always find his way back to his original religion of his birth sooner or later.

What are we saying?
It is really unwise for Leah to keep shouting I'm a christian while in captivity of boko haram when she would have simply pretended and say i have accepted Islam which truly would have been temporary ,and she get released that's all.
But because she is a child she nor fit get that kind sense grin

A true Christian is a ture christian... The girl have made name for her self and I know jesus will never deny her

whether she deceives her captors to that she is converted to Islam and get freed or she keeps denying Islam at the end she get killed Jesus will never deny her.
If she dies, she dies a christian martyr and she is accepted to heaven, but she died foolishly, a death that would have been avoided if she had done otherwise.

Do you still think that the released christian chibok girls who remained in captivity for so many months will still maintain the Islam they were indoctrinated with by their captors till this moment?

No negotiations when it comes to denying Christ pls.

i did not say she should deny Christ, all I'm saying is that she should give her captors the impression that she has accepted Islam, then she will be free

This mentality you just showed here will be the order of the day when the Antichrist emerges and tells Christians to deny their faith and millions would just to be on "the safer side with wisdom"
