OLAADEGBU:
Is it then safe to say that there were no grandfathers in bible days or that grandfathers do not exist?

no!

I'm waiting to see the point you are driving at

One thing that is certain is, it is better to read about it than to experience it.
I'm happy i haven't experience any, and i wount until it's my time

OLAADEGBU:
Can you find the word "Grandfather" in the authorised version of the Bible?

no!

then the Greek interpretation never considered the narratives of the stories behind each of those scriptures you put up there, otherwise the Greek would have seen that the rapture concept contradicts the summary of each of the narrations.

For instance, the whole chapter of
1 Corinthians 15:35-58 to the end, narrates in summary how the dead is resurrected showing that there is resurrection of the dead against the beliefs of the saducees who believed that there is nothing like resurrection of the dead(Matthew 22:23-28).
An intelligent reader who sits down to read will see this.
Now, If 1 Corinthians 15:52 which is part of the narration of the whole 1 Corinthians 15;35-58, talks about rapture as the Greek interpretation presumed, where then is correlation between the rapture in 1 Corinthians 15;52 with the resurrection of the dead narrated in the whole 1 Corinthians 15:35-58 ?

If 1 Corinthians 15:52 was actually referring to rapture, that means it stands on it's own contradicting the whole chapter which explains resurrection and not rapture.

The same thing applies, if one begin to analyse all the scriptures you put up there one after the other, the rapture idea proposed by the Greek contradicts what these scriptures actually stand for

More are still dying and more will continue to die as a result of these type of spiritual ignorance

Why should Christians call the name of Jesus in secular gathering or haven't you heard the name of God should not be used in vain?

To some extent it does, but not as much as the family do

I need a geniue spiritualist. Am within port harcourt. Thanks.

you don't need any spiritual solution there is no such thing.

All you need is education.
Even if it takes you to apply for adult school, do it.

MindHacker9009:
Photo of how the Europeans made a public show of black magic in1897. If black magic could not protect in 1897 so of what use is it today. People should wake up that black magic cannot protect or make money. It is only good to keep people backward.

If the tribes then have invested their time in science and technology then we would have been a super power too today.

Black magic is better seen as fictional oral traditions and nothing more

That is only if there is religious tolerance in the tradition

Make una continue to dey gbogbo people with this fake story, una nor know say una don old?

Mrjiz:
At least them collect thier offering back.

na so

StarGra:
The post says FREE RESTAURANT...not to feed the poor...Anyone can enter...Olodo

why did the op put it that it is open to the public or are the poor not part of the public?

Show me one poor looking person in the pictures the op posted?

Dpharisee:
It's the opening ceremony, always read before commenting

then, the op should have said it is opening ceremony and not yet open to the public.

Do you know what it means to open to the public?

Good

These people nor look like hungry street people now, they look like selected church members coming back from morning service

Faith is something abstract that exist only in the mind where in, is our salvation.
We are not saved by works, works is anything that we do that people can see whether they are bad or good, our salvation does not depend on what we do, but rather, it only depend on Faith in Christ Jesus which was liberally given to us for just being Christians

So, it is hard for atheists to see God because God exist only as faith in our heart of believers, and as a Spirit, ofcourse you can't see spirits.

Romans 10:10 For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

But many Christians today, they want to do something to prove to people that God is in them. They want to perform some miracles,they want to do evangelism, they want to prophesy, they want to be good to others, they want to be religious, etc.

There is nothing bad in doing all these things, but the truth is ,these things do not validate you being a believer, only your faith in Christ do.

So, quite trying to prove God, you don't need to prove anything to anyone as a Christian. just live your life and be yourself, that's all it takes to be a Christian. Whoever really want to see God, the bible is there for him to read.

Happy Sunday

Define fornication

BornofGod108:
Matthew 18:6

“If anyone causes one of these little ones—those who believe in me—to stumble, it would be better for them to have a large millstone hung around their neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea.

i was joking o, you are not going to hell o

But then, your doctrine isn't biblical.

Wetin ladies with trouser do you now, what is actually their offence?

BornofGod108:
TROUSERS MAKES WOMEN NAKED!
WHY?


THE SHAPE OF HER PRIVATE PARTS ARE SEEN, THE SIZE OF HER BUTTOCKS, LAPS AND WAIST ARE SEEN! That is immorality!
But what actually made you to wear trouser as a woman? I don't want to be raped. Raped? How can trouser prevent men from raping you, if actually they want to do so? Is that the glory of God? Is that the glory that covered the man and his wife in the garden of Eden?
Haven't you seen women raped while on trousers? Haven't you!
Stop it today! Stop that thing! God is not happy with you when you're defiling the streets and churches with your seductive trousers. It makes you look like a harlot, it gives you the name of a harlot, it's inglorious and corrupt!
And as you're walking, checking everything; boys will be dying and some okada men would forget themselves because of you! Some would be lusting at that very moment, while some would be calling you "hot baby, baby di ok, flesh tomato, my love", some brave touts would even want to go close to you, to touch your buttocks, even though you're running and trying to remove their hands from you, they would still pursue you... Shameless woman!
Yes, you stirred them up to lust and inordinate affections, so they must act like animals. You tempted them, so they must react!
But why must you perish? That you're not ashamed of unclothedness... Even you married woman, your male children are seeing the size of your buttocks and waists, evil! And after you expect them to be sex-free? Virgins? That's impossible.
Look at that picture, is that a godly picture? All these bun-short, leggings and trousers women are wearing are sinful. Burn all those trousers, set them on fire.
To show how dead and adulterous our generation is degrading to, women will wear their inner tights on the public... I mean those black tights, that gums their bodies, these dirty women will wear it publicly, dead and hellish! Men-slayers.
Harlots! Harlots in the church! Harlots in the streets altogether will descend in the lake that burneth with fire and brimstone.
Burn those trousers, including those tight fitting skirts and dresses. Why must your breast protrude out? Why do you want people to see that your buttocks are big? That buttocks will be set in the fire of hell!
But my Bishop says "it is not a sin, as long as I have a clean heart, I will go to heaven". Which heaven? This holy heaven? Come and go, let me see. "God looks in the heart and not what you wear" is their deceiving language. Change!

you must go to hell fire for looking at all these things.

It is sin

Workch:
It's simply what it is.

That's exactly what the Bible is

let me fool you a little

You say you've read bible 3 times, can you decode what this mean?

Matthew 12:4 How he entered into the house of God, and did eat the shewbread, which was not lawful for him to eat, neither for them which were with him, but only for the priests?

michaelwestern:
Please read the OP again

the op is absolutely correct.
It is saying the truth putting it in a different dimension from what i posted.

Conventional sins don't take people to hell, only the sin of not accepting Christ do.
That also implies that anyone who has accepted Christ can never be classified as a sinner in God's standpoint of view, no matter what he has done

Actually, sin do take people to hell.

But the question is, WHO IS A SINNER AND WHO IS RIGHTEOUS?

No believer is a sinner no matter his sin.

Isaiah 1:18 Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.

Dtruthspeaker:
So now you see, you can not accept one "You" as YOU and reject the other "You".

You can't have an object without its shadow.

hmm!

Yes

Dtruthspeaker:
I did not say it is the same. (And of course it can not be the same question having different Answers )

ok

I said, as you have now seen, both Answers Originate from the questions the disciples put to Him!

Exactly

Dtruthspeaker:
In both cases, the disciples asked the questions which gave rise to their Answers.

the question the disciples asked in Matthew 18:3 is not the same question they asked him in Matthew 24.

The first question was, who is the greatest in the kingdom?
The second question was, what are the signs of your coming and end of the world?

Dtruthspeaker:
So also the "YOU" in "Verily I say unto YOU, except ye be converted: and because as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of God", does not apply to you.

it does not follow.

Follow the events of the two scriptures, you will see that they are not the same.

This one you quoted has to do with to covert, It is not time based, conversion can be done at anytime, even in the old testament there was conversion
But the one in Matthew 24 is time based, it was something that has never happened that was prophesied that it was about to happen.
Remember, the disciples came to him to ask, when is the time of the end and with what signs?

Now that it has already happen how then are you included?
You should rather forge your own course of life towards your future and stop looking at the past what happened in the bible.

MrPresident1:
Luke 19:27
But those mine enemies, which would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and slay them before me.

still the same thing I'm explaining.

Jesus Christ died and resurrected, by so doing he established Christianity which never existed in the time of Daniel(I have been saying there was no Christianity at the time Daniel lived and prophesied).

The Christianity Jesus Christ established is religion right?
That means Jesus is reigning..

And those his enemies were the Jews who crucified him and who refused to change their religion from Judaism(old covenant) to Christianity(new covenant) by believing in Christ(Just like the way God wanted Nebucadnezar to change from his idolatry religion to worshipping him). By so doing, these Jews had refused that Jesus should Reign over them, therefore had Jesus slain them.

What it means to slay them is that, these people had died and had not resurrected.Therefore,they never had eternal life simply because they rejected Jesus and refused to believe. John 3:16

This is the literal meaning of the parable
