Christianity EtcRe: Jesus Will Not Return Until These Things Happen by paxonel(m): 7:42am On Mar 06, 2022
MrPresident1:
if you allow these dogs of satan to deceive you and you are deceived, you have only yourself to blame. Jesus is coming and we are now at th end of the end. What i the intention of an evil thread like this, to force you to go back to sleep? So that you dismiss prophecy that is noe being fulfilled before your very eyes as nothing? Do not follow any dog to hell, their own destiny issealed. Anybody who deliberately misquotes the Bible has a sealed destiny. Do not follow dogs to hell.
so,you have not been sleeping?
You were having sleepless night the moment you heard the word rapture,what kinda life are you living like that?

Christianity EtcDaniel's Prophecies And How They Are Applied To FAITH by paxonel(op): 7:23am On Mar 06, 2022
This post is aimed at eliminating religious fears associated with ancient doctrines and creed through knowledge.

The key fact that will help us to understand Daniels prophecies is that, Every Civilisations, culture and traditions comes with their religion.

The Babylonian empire and traditions of that era had their idols and gods they worshipped and that was religion.
One key ordinances they practiced in accordance to their idolatry beliefs was eating the left over food of the sacrifices which the King Nebucadnezar served the people.

Daniel 1:15 And at the end of ten days their countenances appeared fairer and fatter in flesh than all the children which did eat the portion of the king's meat.

So, Shadrach, Mishach and Abednego refused to eat the portion of the kings meat or food, because they belong to a separate religion(which was Judaism) that was different from the idolatry religion of the Babylonian Empire, and because the king's meat was served in accordance to idolatry religious ordinances of the Babylonian empire, not in accordance to the Jewish God(The almighty God)

Please mark the difference in religion, and also mark that there was no Christianity at that time.


Having known why Shadrach, Mishach and Abednego had refused the king's meat that it was strictly because of religious concerns, it follows that the only problem God had against Nebucadnezar was for him to change his religion, Hence, Daniel prophesied doom against his reign.

Now, let's look at the word REIGN.

I have just said that every civilisations comes with their religion. This also implies that if a civilization reigns over the world just like the Babylonian empire did in the time of Daniel, then before God, it is the religion of the empire or the religion that comes with such civilisation that is actually what is reigning over the world.

what God is looking at is religion. Hebrews 11:6

So, when God put an end to the reign of Nebucadnezar and the Babylonian empire he was actually putting an end to the reign of the Babylonian religion at that time that was reigning and dominating over other religions of the the world.

So, how does this apply?
let's look at other Daniel's prophecies.

Daniel 7:3 And four great beasts came up from the sea, diverse one from another.

These four great beasts in this Daniels vision represents four great religions that will rule the world before the coming of Christ(the coming of Christianity)

Remember, I said there was no Christianity at that time.

Now, let's go to the book of Revelation to see how this apply.

Revelation 13:3 And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death; and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast.

the beast here represent a dominant religion that all the world worshipped.
Some call it mark of the beast, it's still the same thing, it's simply religion or a means of worship to another god and not the god of Christianity.

A lot of doctrines and concepts have put people into fear that, this mark of the beast is one imaginary Antichrist that will come and terrorize people at end time.
please, this is a lie

Hear the truth about what Daniel referred to as end time

Acts 2:17 And it shall come to pass in the last days(end time), saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams:

So, end time according to Daniel was actually the time of crucifixion and resurrection of Christ after which believers were given the power to prophesy and see visions and dreams.

In order words, there is no last day or end time.

But having said the beast represent religions, today religions are everywhere. Therefore there are no points to be afraid of any literal beast or mark 666 or end of world which will never happen.

Just live your life and be free.
Christianity EtcRe: Jesus Will Not Return Until These Things Happen by paxonel(m):
THE BIGGEST CONFUSION HERE IS THAT, MANY CHRISTIANS TODAY THINK JESUS INCLUDED THEM WHEN HE TOLD HIS DISCIPLES "YOU" (In the statement YOU will hear of wars and rumours of wars)
NOT MINDING THAT THE TIME OF THESE DISCIPLES JESUS WAS TALKING TO, WHO ACTUALLY HEARD AND SAW THE RUMOURS OF WARS, HAVE PASS.
AND THAT THEY TODAY CHRISTIANS, ARE LIVING IN TODAY, AND THE "YOU" USED BY JESUS WAS SPECIFICALLY FOR THE DISCIPLES OF THAT TIME, NOT YOU WHO IS LIVING NOW OR TODAY ANYMORE, OR ANY OTHER TIME IN OUR FUTURE.

Only intelligent mind will understand this.

Savoryzinny:
"God will not do anything for you untill you show your willingness to serve him with your tithes, and offerings"
you will get help from church simply because you show your willingness to the people, you didn't show it to God. So,the people will help you, not God.

This is the reason why, people that pay tithe and offerings feels that they are getting help from God because they are paying. In the real sense, it is not God that is helping them, it is the people that are seeing what they are doing that is helping them

Anyway, if you care to know, isrealites aren't Christians, rather they practice Judaism.

Christianity EtcRe: An Important Bible Verse Most Pastors Don't Teach In Their Churches by paxonel(m): 3:34pm On Feb 27, 2022
My friend the temple or church is no longer the house of God, so buying and selling is allowed. Even if it is done right in the pulpit that one nor concern God again.
The most important thing that concern God is to give your life to Christ, at that point you are now the temple, not any rubbish building.

Una too like building…
And pastors too

Christianity EtcThe Great Tribulation by paxonel(op): 2:12pm On Feb 27, 2022
Matthew 24:21For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be
To what time?
To this time.

Now,let me quickly say what Jesus meant by this time.
If I say an event will occur this time, I'm simply referring to now, this time that I'm alive
So it was with Jesus, he was referring to his time that he was alive which is about 2000 years ago.

So, the great tribulation must have happened 2000 years ago
Christianity EtcRe: Earrings And Rings Are Not For Christians by paxonel(m): 9:08am On Feb 27, 2022
[s]
BornofGod108:
EARRINGS AND RINGS ARE NOT FOR CHRISTIANS


Read (Isaiah 3:16-24, Genesis 35:1-4, Jeremiah 4:30, I Timothy 2:9, I Peter 3:1-3).
All holiness preachers down the ages condemned the use of jewelries by Christians. The Protestant churches rejected it's uses, calling it "idolatry". Martin Luther wrote against it, John Hus, Wycliffe, John Wesley and George Whitefield rejected the use of jewelries by true believers.
If you read 1 Peter 3:3, Saint Peter explained it perfectly "...not with gold!" Gold represents all jewelries, including wedding rings. Paul speaking expressly with the same spirit with Peter condemned it also in his Epistle to Timothy (I Timothy 2:9).
Timothy as a Bishop must teach this truth, he must condemn the use of jewelries of all kind, including all precious stones and pearls. Paul wrote to him for him to know the best godly adornment benefiting to godly women. Peter also wrote "not with plaiting of hair, not with gold..." That's their outward adornments should not be characterized by all these heathenish materials...
Some Christians, so-called said "it is a personal conviction".
Now, is it a personal conviction? No! Whatsoever that is found written in the Bible is or are for our good and Christian perfection. Those who said "it is a personal conviction" are in the wrong spirit. They are heretical.
All holiness preachers condemned it's use. The early Methodist members never wear jewelries, John Wesley stood against it! He called it an idolatry and no idolaters have any lot nor part in the kingdom of God. John Wesley never taught his people only on the inward holiness of heart, he also warned them to be careful in the way they dress, avoiding the use of gold and makeups for beauty.
In fact, Old Anglican Church never wear it. They rejected! The use of any kind of jewelries, pays eternal doom in hell fire. Any Bishop who wears it as Bishop ring, necklace and bangles, will never see God!
The first woman never wear jewelries, Eve never wear earrings. She was natural as God made her, who then are you that is wearing it!
Hell is the portion of all women who wears it, believe it or not, the last day will justify this post! On that day of judgment John Wesley will reject the present Methodists for rejecting his Holiness tradition to worldliness.
Accept this truth, inform your Bishop, tell your Pastors, warn your congregations to repent from wearing it, because hell will not spare them.
Throw those evils away, cleanse yourself! Be holy

Christianity EtcRe: Beware Of So Called Liberal Christianity!� by paxonel(m): 3:51pm On Feb 25, 2022
Steep:
What is liberal Christianity?



Liberal Christianity exalts peaceful coexistence, tolerance above biblical truth.

Interdenominalism and ecumenism are product of liberalism.

Jesus was not tolerant when he challenged the beliefs of the pharisees, he declared that he is the way and that anyone who does not believe on him will perish in their sin.

How to know those who are liberal Christian?
They avoid preaching against sin, they avoid preaching Jesus Christ as the only way, they avoid preaching about hell, they avoid the Gospel because it causes offense.

1 Corinthians 1:17 For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect.

1 Peter 2:7 Unto you therefore which believe he is precious: but unto them which be disobedient, the stone which the builders disallowed, the same is made the head of the corner,

2:8 And a stone of stumbling, and a rock of offence, even to them which stumble at the word, being disobedient: whereunto also they were appointed.


The true gospel is very intolerant, unsettling and causes division
can you state one example of any Christian sect practicing liberal Christianity?
Christianity EtcRe: "There Is No Fire In Hell" - Dr. Abel Damina Says by paxonel(m): 12:45am On Feb 20, 2022
Hanibbal:
Revelation 20:14-15

[14]Then Death and Hades were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death.

[15]And anyone not found written in the Book of Life was cast into the lake of fire.
the lake of fire is a figurative language which simply means to die forever and not to resurrect thereafter.
It is the second death.

The first death(the usual death we see people dying in real life) allows for resurrection in the spirit realm. At that point, everyone will face judgement.
But after the judgement, the bible records that there will be a second death for those whose names were not found in the book, that one is die and go forever, no resurrection, nothing like fire burning people
Christianity EtcRe: "There Is No Fire In Hell" - Dr. Abel Damina Says by paxonel(m): 12:36am On Feb 20, 2022
Hanibbal:
A Televangelist and Senior Pastor of Power City International, Dr. Abel Damina said there is no record in the Bible supporting the popular belief that hell is a lake of fire. The Pastor said this during his recent call-in question and answer session.
In response to the question, 'Will hell last forever? The Cleric explained that Hell is not Hellfire, because the Bible does not call it Hellfire, it is religion that added the fire. He added that Hell means utter darkness, and it is the place Jesus Christ went when He died on the cross as recorded in Psalms 16:10. In this Bible verse, the Psalmist speaks prophetically by saying God will not leave his soul in hell nor will He let His Holy One see decay.
absolutely correct sir

Speaklove:
Thank you for your advice but I will also like to advice you not to lean on your own understanding but seek that he breath on you and open your understanding .
What you have quoted does not apply here.
Understanding is what matters in this world, if you don't have it, it's better you don't come out or you make yourself and the Jesus Christ you preach a joke, especially here on NL.
Paul the apostle took time to study first, that was why he made great impact.
That impact was based on his understanding

2 Timothy 2:15 Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.”

Today, we have pastors who want to preach, yet they undermine the place of study.

This is simply because you present no argument or exegesis other than what I wrote
Nor make yourself clear but seek to refute an assertion without a defense .
it seems you are new on NL right?
with time you will understand what I'm trying to explain grin

Christianity EtcAbsolute Love by paxonel(op): 12:14pm On Feb 13, 2022
Romans 5:8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

Now, that is absolute love.

But can humans commend absolute love to one another?
It isn't possible.

1 John 1:8 If we say that we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us.

So, we can only try our best.

But again, where do we start loving our best and to whom should we give our love first?

A popular saying states that charity begins at home, so it is quite reasonable to consider members of our immediate family first, especially our spouse and kids, then we can consider other people when there are enough to share, cos we can't do beyond ourselves, So, the first person to love is yourself.

In times like this, we encourage spouses to spend quality time with each other and renew their vows of commitment to their union.

Love constitute the larger solution to all human problems and it is far greater than miracles.

Christianity EtcRe: Let's Discuss: Why I Believe Jesus Is The Messiah by paxonel(m): 6:32am On Feb 12, 2022
Absolutely correct op,

I addition to the great things he did, we also read in the bible that he put forth a great prophecy in one of his parables that will last forever, This prophecy has come to pass as we see it today.

Matthew 13:31 Another parable put he forth unto them, saying,The kingdom of heaven is like to a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and sowed in his field:
Matthew 13:32 Which indeed is the least of all seeds: but when it is grown, it is the greatest among herbs, and becometh a tree, so that the birds of the air come and lodge in the branches thereof.


The kingdom of heaven is Christianity on earth.
Christianity was the least of all faiths started like a mustard seed(Tiny seed) with just only 120 people(Act 1:15)
Today after approx.2000 years, that 120 people have grown to billions of believers worldwide.

The question is : How did Jesus happens to know that this trended was going to occur? (a question for the atheists and every other antagonists)

Jesus is truly great whether we believe it or not.

Jesus confirmed that there is nothing hidden under the sun that it must not come to be revealed.

I don't know why you people especially Africans choose to be diabolical in your beliefs and take it Christianity to practice, believing what is not real, by so doing you are afraid of the air you breath, the trees around, water, and sunlight, so that everything around you is now Satan.
How will you possibly apply your brain and think, and bring solutions to your problem like that, with that kinda mentality?

Meanwhile, Europeans used their brain, they develop space crafts that is taking them to the moon and someone is saying Satan in Africa, in this 21st century?

He can continue doing "his thing" while forgetting that he's a parent. Just as he's ruining the life of unsuspecting people for financial gains, so will his children be affected. Heck, he's already bringing his kids up in an immoral way i.e braiding his son's hair.

At the end, Satan rewards him with endorsement deals that fetch him millions simply because he carries out the evil task given to him.

Sadly, no one is bothered about the young teenagers who are in chains now simply because they probably got influenced by the wrong content musicians dish out.
but he is not the one to institute societal values which is solely the responsibility of the parents, he is just doing his thing which is entertainment?
