Maynman:
You mean the Torah? The Old Testament was gotten from Judaism. The Greek Christians copied the Torah to the Christian Bible. Hope you know Bible means collection of books? Where did the Christians get it from? Who collected and complied it?
They can’t have record of Jesus because Jesus is a product of Roman Catholic.

Maynman:
Your statement makes zero sense

Where did Greek Jesus say anything about Christianity?
Did you know when the Greek Jesus was a Judaist?

You assumed that the mustard seed means Christianity? Why not Judaism, where Christianity was extracted from

FatherOfJesus:
We have 4000 religions, have you read all their books?

Maynman:
Since you haven’t read other religious book then you have to remain neutral and not call Yahweh the most powerful until you have dedicated your time to read them.

Maynman:
That means you are not listening to your advice.
This is what you said about your book now you are changing tone.

Don’t tell us to read your book

You should present a sound argument and proof of your Yahweh outside your book as you’ve advised other religion to do also

Maynman:
But you said this? Now they have to bring their argument, it’s no longer they should read to know content?

How many other religious book have you read to know their content and see the proof

and hope you were neutral?

Maynman:
The same thing can be said about other religion books.
You can’t claim Yahweh is the most powerful when you are yet to read other religious books, you should remain neutral until you’ve read other religion books. Listen to your advice.

Hermes119:
how did you come about this knowledge

How about growing an amputated limb,the only thing science can provide is a prosthetic and that is still very much deficient

You are a mere human like me and as far as I know you are not in the position to school me on whether a spirit exists or not or what a spirit is in the first place except when you prove so. I do not believe in spirits,period.

Hermes119:
As humans in the physical realm are we affected by the spirit realm ?

I don't believe in the spirit realm

Hermes119:
Well what's the role of God then,what use is he

RoyalDiadems:
No. This is it:

When you're born again, you receive a fresh release of the life of God in you. That makes you different from everyone else. You become a peculiar generation. Now, that is to say, you receive new abilities which others do not have.

You have the ability to reject sin, and when you sin, you get really disturbed. Meanwhile others rejoice and even boast after sinning. Therein lies the difference.

The error of modern day Christianity about these things is that a born again Christian is immediately expected to start living a holy life like Jesus. But this isn't so. Even Peter and Barnabas still committed hypocrisy as narrated by Paul in Ephesians 1, even though they were firebrand apostles.

The truth is that there's a babyhood stage of falling and rising when you become born again. "As new born babes, desire the sincere milk of the word that you may grow thereby." IPeter 2:2. So, just as a todler rises and falls as he learns to walk. The baby Christian falls many times as he walks with God, but "The righteous falleth seven times and riseth again.' The frequency of the falls reduce as he grows and matures in his walk with the Lord.

Even after being grown up in the things of God, the tendency to fall still exists as long as we continue to abide in this fleshly tabarnacle. Hebrews 12:1 says we should "...lay aside every weight and the sin which doth so easily beseth us."

There's also a marked difference between being a son of God, and being a submissive, obedient son of God. Everyone born again is a child of God, but not everyone born again is an obedient child of God. That's why Paul said:

"But I keep under my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be a castaway." 1Cor. 9:27.

In Romans 8, he admonished born again Christians to walk after the spirit and not after the flesh.

FeliciaOja:
I saw Kumuyi in Hellfire in my dream

i have had that type of dream twice

In the dream, he was been punished for corrupting and misusing the word of God to create man made doctines.

In hell, i was shown many many fake men of God.
Their main reason for being there was because they twisted the word of God to control the masses.

RoyalDiadems:
That scripture I quoted in Luke 21:17 sums it all. "The kingdom of God is (not was, not will be), within you.

The Kingdom of God is God's rulership and sovereignty over a man's life.

Being baptized in water does not signify being born again. You can have water baptism without having the born again experience. "If any man be in Christ, he is a new creature..." That renewal is the aftermath of a rebirth.

RoyalDiadems:
You're seriously in error. Luke 21:17 tells us where the Kingdom of God is.

It is not hard to understand the Kingdom of God. It is the sovereignty of God in the life of a man, community or nation. When a person comes to a point where obedience to God is the ultimate in all he does. Jesus is Lord of all his activities. The Holy Spirit reigns supreme in his thoughts and actions, producing righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Ghost, that's the kingdom of God Romans 14:17.

To be born again is to be reawakened in your spirit to be reintroduced into the presence of God as it was in the beginning.

MaxInDHouse:
"READ" you say?
Well i read carefully, studied diligently, meditated thoroughly and prayed fervently {Proverbs 2:1-5} before arriving at that point.
So if you don't believe that there's anything called BORN AGAIN today then you need to reason with others instead of dismissing what God's son emphasized on.

MaxInDHouse:
Even though Jesus and his disciples were into pure worship fully and everyone can see the benefits of the self-sacrificing spirit of that group, Jewish critics continue to call everything "SCAM" John 7:45-49; Act 24:5

So you're entitled to your PERSONAL opinion Sir!

RoyalDiadems:
Most times we have had many pastors and evangelists preach, urging us to become born again. What do they really mean, and why is it so important?

The Lord Jesus Christ Himself was the very first Person who introduced the concept to Nicodemus, a Pharisee in John Chapter 3.

"Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, Verily, I say unto you. Except a man be born again. he cannot see the Kingdom of God." John 3:3.

MaxInDHouse:
BORN AGAIN is not a scam, we know them and we treat them well like we should do for Jesus {Matthew 25:31-46} they live with us but it's difficult to identify them so if not for the annual observance Jesus initiated between himself and them there's no way anyone can know them because they do everything normal humans do except these things:
They're not interested in earthly material possessions.
They're not involved in racial conflicts or politics.
They don't keep account of injuries inflicted on them by anyone no matter how badly it is.
They love everyone in their neighbourhood (including those criticizing them)
They love their fellow believers just as Jesus loves them.
They're the most humble of all humans on this planet.

It's because we worship with them that most people do call us "JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES" but in reality they are the real BROTHERS of CHRIST who have the name of their God and then name of the lamb written on their forehead {Revelations 14:1} we are just people of the nations holding onto their skirt saying "we will go with you people because we have heard that God is with you people" They are Jesus' real brothers the SPIRITUAL JEWS! Zechariah 8:23

He would say that it is a useful key until when such keys is used to trespass his territory, that's is when he shall complain that the key should be broken and his locked beheaded.

Good morning and happy new month nairalanders.

I will not be calling the name of any church, but why do some churches takes the deads to the church and pray for their sins to be forgiven before they are laid to rest?

Note, that most of this person are kept long in murtuary for months, and some even last up to years in the murtuary. But when it is time for their burial, they are first taken to the church for prayers. This prayer is mostly centered on asking God to forgive their sins and accep their souls into his kingdom (heaven).

My questions;

* Is taken dead bodies to the church good in the sight of God?

* Is the fate of the dead decided immidiately after death, or after they are burried?

* Can our sin be forgiven after death?

Steep:
If you refuse to pay tithe after knowing it is good, it becomes a sin on you.

AntiChristian:
No one did it in the Bible as far as i know.

A woman with more than one husband at a time is a LovePeddler!

A key hole that is opened by many keys is a useless lock.

CyberHustle:
Tithing is freewill practice. Stop calling it theft. Can I force you to pay it? Never. That's why you can oppose it openly. It is the beauty of Christianity. The choice of life or death.

Steep:
Malachi 3:10 Bring ye all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be meat in mine house, and prove me now herewith, saith the LORD of hosts, if I will not open you the windows of heaven, and pour you out a blessing, that there shall not be room enough to receive it.

Tithe is not just a law but a principle, the law of tithe says pay 1/10 of your earning to the priest.
The principle of tithing is that we should not allow the work of God to suffer we should invest carnal things into the things of God.
Hence paying 1/10th is a principle, it is the minimum we give, the early Christians gave all they have to the apostles.

Which of the people complaining about tithe can give all they have? If they cannot give 1/10th (minimum) how can they give all?

Jesus never abolish giving and if the church agree on tithe, then it is signed in heaven.
Matthew 18:19 Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven.

Most people don't understand that the church have power, when the church agree on something, Jesus automatically agrees with it, and anyone against it is on his on her own. In as much as it is good, and honorable it is settled.
James has this to say,
James 4:17 Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth it not, to him it is sin.

For those against tithe, there is one question for you?
Is tithing a good thing or not?
Does it elevate the work of God or not?

If you know it is good and elevate the work of God and you are against it, according to James you have sinned.

Don't be decieved by God haters and christ rejecters, whatever a man sow that shall he also reap

MaxInDHouse:
Hmmmmmmmmm, well this is a sensitive one!

The title "FATHER" can be used in many ways so let's analyse it. Firstly a man who fathered a child, secondly one who always covers your back in times of need, thirdly one who teaches you so many things in life just like his own child.
Jesus said we shouldn't call anyone "our father" on earth {Matthew 23:9} but that doesn't mean we shouldn't call our biological father "FATHER"
So what exactly does he mean?
Well he's talking about seeing someone like the person who should define righteousness for you even though what he taught you won't yield positivity anywhere!
Such teachings only ends within the person's domain he won't take it anywhere further, so their righteousness is self they only use it to keep you under them, they won't teach it elsewhere since they know it's not going to work out anything positive in any society.

Such fathers only gather gullible followers and teach them their own righteousness so each of such fathers have formed their own religion and they're rivals to one another!

But real fathers will teach you God's word that is PRACTICALLY APPLICABLE everywhere so they will not relate as teachers with anyone who doesn't teach what they know is God's standard!

MaxInDHouse:
Authority is offices where one is superior to another, spirituality is where sacred service is carried out.
So women can lead as Presidents, Governors, Senators, Reps, Chairman of local government and in so many other PUBLIC offices where men are under her AUTHORITY but whatever has to do with sacred service (worship) women must remain silent and sit behind!

Bringing your first fruits regularly before the presence of God,pleases God greatly and attracts His Abundant Blessings to you.It is an obligation of every true worshipper which shouldn't be neglected or taken for granted.

ysyowel:
Please let me clear the air
1. January salary/ income in not the real first fruit, its good but not scriptural, if the Lord is leading you to give your first income of the year please obey, anything other than that is not in written word
2. Any money � you give cheerfully is accepted, giving under compulsion don't attract blessings.
3. No scripture that say give money � as first fruit, it was farm produce and animals and lastly first born male child which you can redeem him.
4. If I didn't give money as first fruit am not cursed
5. First fruit teaches us to put God first in everything and putting God first is not all about money
6. True meaning of first fruit, in The resurrected Christ.

Remain bless
