Young man it is clear uou are already wasting your life despite many warnings and visions. So what exactly are you doing here, asking strangers for help, do you think it is cute? Are you not seeing how the world hates pastors these days because of how loose they are with women and prophesies and many other things?

Rather than spend your life learning how to be an original man of God or cleaning up your playful sinful ways, you are here asking for help, which help?

Pls you know what to do so stop deceiving yourself. There many true men of God, follow them, be a disciple and cut off from your online addiction. Hurry before your destiny is replaced with lust for money and women and you open church with demonic powers just to make money.


No one will help you anymore, you have heard too many warnings and you turned a deaf ear. So do the needful before it's too late.

I agree with you jare

,

another is called JAMES THE SON OF ALPHAEUS.

PLEASE, which of them believe after CHRIST'S DEATH?

None The two you mentioned were already apostles among the 12 but there was a 3ed James who was jesus younger brother . He was a pharisee, he didnt believe earlier but after the death of christ he believed and became an apostle also

Galatians 1:19 TLB
The only other apostle I met at that time was James, the Lord’s brother

Maximus69:
That's the result of misinterpretation!

I've told you what the verse mean but if you're not OK with it, go and practice your own Christianity as you're pleased Sir, no wahala!

But why would you be the only one reading different meaning into a verse. Are you deliberately ignoring the facts before you?

Remember that peter was the first to minister to the gentiles by revelation and he explained himself to other apostles. So there was an agreement and understanding that the gentiles are acceptable by faith.

But James who was a newly converted person from Judaism and pharisee but was given leadership by the virtue of his relationship with jesus still mixes the law with faith. He was insisting the gentiles must be circumcised nobody could stand up to him because he had authority.

Act 15:19 — Act 15:20
Wherefore my sentence is, that we trouble not them, which from among the Gentiles are turned to God: But that we write unto them, that they abstain from pollutions of idols, and from fornication, and from things strangled, and from blood

What he quoted here were the requirements for converting gentiles to judaism .


Acts 15:1
And certain men which came down from Judaea taught the brethren, and said, Except ye be circumcised after the manner of Moses, ye cannot be saved.

Who is the leader in judea ? = james the pharisee convert. That would not happen under Peter . Its obvious peter himself was afraid of James

Gal 2:11 — Gal 2:12
But when Peter was come to Antioch, I withstood him to the face, because he was to be blamed. For before that certain came from James, he did eat with the Gentiles: but when they were come, he withdrew and separated himself, fearing them which were of the circumcision.

Maximus69:
So you say the person chosen by Jesus himself is not qualified to speak for the Apostles shey?

Never mind Sir, you can believe whatever pleases you, it's the arrangement Jesus set that i'm trying to explain here, he never allowed nepotism in his group, first come are the first to serve with him, but if that's not OK by you, you can go and practice your own Christianity Sir. No wahala!

Im proving the point from scripture Try look it up . I have more than enough proof james jesus brother became an apostle and he became the head of the church in Jerusalem

Galatians 1:19 TLB
The only other apostle I met at that time was James, the Lord’s brother.

Galatians 1:19 BBE
But of the other Apostles I saw only James, the Lord's brother.

Maximus69:
One was killed by Herod {Act 12:2} so it's the second James among the Apostles! Matthew 10:3

Wrong !James alpheaus was never a pillar in the apostolic time except Jamed the brother of jesus .

Secondly if you observe the content of his discussion it shows he was still new in the faith . He was a pharisee. He was still mixing Judaism with christianity. Someone who had been with jesus and the apostles wont do that

Thirdly He still refers to peter by the former family name "Cephas" didnt know jesus changed it.

Here are the 5 fold ministries
Apostles
Prophets
Evangelists
Pastors
Teachers

Ephesians 4:11
[11]And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers;

Of these 5, Prophets seem to accrue more followers than others especially when the Prophetic gift is accompanied by the Teaching gift.
I've attended prayer meetings where tens of people will run after a Prophet to consult, get his contact or give him an envelope the moment he drops the mic.
Whereas no one approaches a Pastor who just raises prayer points and teaches the word in the same meeting where ministers take turns to speak.
In a derogatory way, some Pastors say things like " there is no prophecy besides the word of God, the world is full of fake Prophets and prophecies, don't allow prophecies fool you"

While Prophets respond with " where there is no vision the people perish, pastors who can't see visions don't know their left from their right "

Though many may not like to admit it, but there is a silent rivalry between Pastors and Prophets over who carries more spiritual authority.

The truth is , the grace of the 5 offices are needed at some point in a Christian's work and walk through life.
Let the rivalry stop.

Yes all parts of the body is needed for edification and perfection

Apostle James!

Which of the james .

achorladey:
When speaking with this PERSONALITY you are in discussion with you need to show him evidence sometimes from HIS LEADERS. You could see him telling you've doesn't believe MAN MADE STORIES but the man made stories as it were is equally what HIS LEADERS wrote in the Watchtower.

You've not answered the question

You can watch it here

Maximus69:
!
I only rely on whatever setting is found in the Bible, i don't believe in man-made stories. There were two of Jesus' siblings that later became Christians "James and Jude" of course their admonitions were included as Bible books but they never served as Apostles!

Acts 15:13
And after they had held their peace, James answered, saying, Men and brethren, hearken unto me:

Which james was speaking here

A bible teacher is known by the consistency of the truth he preaches by the word of God and also by the focus of his message

Maximus69:
Jesus chose twelve Apostles so not until all of them die, Nobody leads amongst his disciples, everyone was obedient to the Apostles! Act 2:42, 6:6, 15:2, 23-29

The evidence i gave you prove otherwise

So it wasn't the brother of Jesus who joined them much later Sir, Jesus made just one person Apostle after the twelve and that's Paul.

There were other apostles, remember they even voted to make Matthias apostle .

Jesus purposely made this man Apostle to lead other nations to Christ! Act 9:15; 1Timothy 2:5

Dont just argue it . Theres enough evidence in the bible. Research it. Check references and commentaries,google .

Start with this

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James%2C_brother_of_Jesus?wprov=sfla1

Maximus69:
The bolded is just a fabrication my friend!

Not fabrication, its a fact

First you asked if there is any other Apostle called James, i told you there are two Apostles named James, now you've noticed that one was killed but there still remains another Apostle named James again before Jesus' brother!

Check the list of names @ Matthew 10:2-4

You're right there are 2 James. But the fact remains that james the brother of jesus took over leadership after his conversion .

Acts 15:13
And after they had held their peace, James answered, saying, Men and brethren, hearken unto me:


Which james do you think was presiding here?

Maximus69:
There were two Apostles named James!

I sent it to you but you never cared to read it. Matthew 10:2-4

None of Jesus' brothers accepted CHRIST during his lifetime, that's why Jesus' asked John the Apostle to take care of his mother who as at Jesus' death has become a Christian {John 19:26-27} this is totally against the Jewish custom but since Jews at that time have all become hostile towards whoever acknowledged Jesus as the Messiah, all his siblings have abandoned Mary!

The apostle called james was already arrested and killed before this time .

Act 12:1 — Act 12:2
Now about that time Herod the king stretched forth his hands to vex certain of the church. And he killed James the brother of John with the sword.

And after that Peter was arrested also . James the brother of jesus who was a pharisee joined the church and was made an apostle he was also in charge of the church in Jerusalem.

When Peter was released from prison he had to send message to James First because he had become the leader of the church in Jerusalem

Maximus69:
You're quoting but not meditating!

Paul is saying "i was in Jerusalem for 15 days when i visited Peter but i didn't see any of the other Apostles with him except James (Jesus' brother)" Galatians 1:18-19

That mean 'the James i'm talking about is not the Apostle but Jesus' junior brother'

Question, Is there another James the apostle apart from jesus brother .if you check, The only james was jesus brother and he was an apostle , not only that ,he took over leadership among the apostles

Show us some pictures of you preaching on the street

Maximus69:
You're mixing the whole thing up!

Jesus' brother James was never one of the Apostles, he became a Christian much later!

Paul's letter shows that the James he is talking about is not the Apostle but Jesus' brother!

Do not be in a hurry to respond. Check those scriptures again objectively

He names James among the apostles here.

Galatians 1:19
But other of the apostles saw I none, save James the Lord's brother.

Maximus69:
Before Jesus' death none of his siblings became a Christian, it was after his death that James and Jude accepted Christianityso you erred there Sir,

I agree with you that they didnt believe on at some point . James was a pharisee but got converted after.

He became one of the apostles in the early church .

Galatians 1:19
But other of the apostles saw I none, save James the Lord's brother.

James the younger brother of jesus took over the church in Jerusalem which was a kind of HQ In that time, James rise to leadership became very obvious when Peter was released from Prison, he had to send report to James first of his release

Acts 12:17
But he, beckoning unto them with the hand to hold their peace, declared unto them how the Lord had brought him out of the prison. And he said, Go shew these things unto James, and to the brethren. And he departed, and went into another place.

If you observe when there was doctrinal issue in the early church and Paul and other apostles gathered . Even though James was new in the faith and doctrine and was still mixing the old law with the new but James was the one calling the shot . His word seem to be final .

Acts 15:13
And after they had held their peace, James answered, saying, Men and brethren, hearken unto me Wherefore my sentence is, that we trouble not them, which from among the Gentiles are turned to God

So you could see that James was the person in charge.

Another incidence was when Peter traveled to visit Paul in Galatia. He observed that the Jews and gentiles Christians ate together and he joined in too. But when some people came Ftom JERUSALEM (James church) Peter was afraid and decamped from eating with the gentiles Christians and Paul had to rebuke him

Galatians 2:11-13
But when Peter was come to Antioch, I withstood him to the face, because he was to be blamed. For before that certain came from James, he did eat with the Gentiles: but when they were come, he withdrew and separated himself, fearing them which were of the circumcision. And the other Jews dissembled likewise with him; insomuch that Barnabas also was carried away with their dissimulation.

It’s a fact that James ,Peter and John were pillars among the Apostles but James has leadership

Galatians 2:9
And when James, Cephas, and John, who seemed to be pillars, perceived the grace that was given unto me, they gave to me and Barnabas the right hands of fellowship; that we should go unto the heathen, and they unto the circumcision.

Galatians 1:19
But other of the apostles saw I none, save James the Lord's brother.

Maximus69:
Jesus Christ had junior brothers but none of them was chosen as Apostle, the only two out of about six siblings he had accepted Christianity.

Are you aware that two of jesus brothers became ministers . And james jesus younger brother became an apostle not only that, he also took over headship among the other apostles .

Maximus69:
Kumuyi turned his female followers into mourners as they will dress like old women.
Most of his gullible members and majority believed his deceit, but when his own son got married Kumuyi's daughter in-law ignored all the things imposed on his church members.
A member once argued that Mr Kumuyi never attended the wedding but pictures don't lie nah!

They could have relaxed their law probably olaadegbu can explain better to you

OLAADEGBU:
Do you mean to say that the Allah of the Qu'ran is the same God of the Bible?

There are Pentecostal ministers who dont see the difference between jehovah and Allah. They only see it as Arabic name .
But are you aware that even scofield study bible calls God "allah"? It says El" Elah" "Allah"

I think you should use recent picture and belief to judge that man . Not old photo of over 30 years ago. The bible days we should judge righteously.

, but unfortunately, their children display unbecoming character that does not portray their foundation. . . .

But how come when we have a minister.who brings his sons up alright and they eventually end up in ministry we still have people here criticizing them and say its family business

coputa:
@Rigtheousness89 apart from salvation,most of them . . is it that pastors are not good at parenting.

Not at all . . Well they have a responsibility to train them aright but it happened in the bible days too Eli sons were worldly. So a Pastor has dual responsibility. The church and the home . Satan takes special interest in attacking ministers children and sometimes the minister feels "IF I TAKE CARE OF GODS HOUSE ,HE WILL TAKE CARE OF MY HOUSEHOLD " but it's not so . You must pay attention to the two .

This church ignored guidelines to stop the spread of covid-19

That's a pretty good reason to get rid of an organization.

If they don't care about the health and well-being of their members then what good are they to the society?

Trash! What are they spreading ? All these fake cases in hospitals?

The monitoring team has no right to destroy a property. The highest they can do is seal it .

That YOU feel frustrated when you bash other people's religion, doctrines and gods does not mean everyone else does. Don't project your insecurities on me.

I don't need a book that endorses slavery, misogyny, genocide and wholesale stupidity to give me any hope or give my life any meaning. My future and life are already hopeful, meaningful and settled as I speak. Way more than you, or your slave-masters could ever imagine.

That YOU need a book written by goat herders in the dark ages to give YOUR own life a meaning does not mean everyone else does. And it says more about YOU than anything else here.

.

God loves you . The bible is a book of prophecy . It's more current than tomorrow newspaper.

is barely not up to two days since the face-off between the Akwa Ibom State COVID-19 Monitoring / Task Force Team and Christ Embassy Church In Uyo which led to the sealing up of the church was heard of. Today, another has happened again and this is the demolition of a church building by the COVID-19 Monitoring / Task Force Team.

It could be recalled that In a bid to manage and control the spread of the dreaded COVID-19 virus which has plagued our world today, and has killed scores of people all over the world, that the Akwa Ibom State Government had set up a monitoring / task force team in the state to ensure compliance with the World Health Organization (WHO), Nigeria Center For Disease and Control (NCDC) and Christian Association of Nigeria (CAN) guidelines and protocols (safety measures). The team had among other duties do visit different places of religious and social gatherings to ensure compliance with the laid down protocols and guidelines.

The demolition of the church structure by the monitoring team, it was gathered is not totally unconnected to their non-compliance with the laid down guidelines and protocols of ; social distancing, use of face mask, and prohibition of gathering of more than twenty persons. The church's name as gathered is; Knowledge of God Ministry, AKA; The Arena of Peace and Power, is located at Believers Assembly Road, off Oron Road, behind Dakkada Office, Uyo with Victor Elijah as the senior prophet.

From the pictures and videos made available by a Facebook user; Ifreke Nsewo Connoisseur, members of the church are seen rushing out of the building as a caterpillar is seen demolishing the church structure which was partly made from plywood and a canopy set outside. It was also gathered that some members and pastors of the church were arrested.

Any ways, long story short... About after a month later, huncle fex carry police come pick local man unto say he must say how, when, and where he killed the sister (the mother). For 2 weeks now guy man dey cell, to call pastor name dey hard em.

Advice: in matters of spiritualism, use your head.

It's a simple thing . There is difference between a Pastor and a Prophet . The issue could be true. I've seen some prophet display such gift . And they stand by their word . They are ready to confront the culprit. At the end of the day the culprit will be the one confessing his deed . And such issue should always end in reconciliation and hard forgiveness. So in this case. The pastor/ prophet should be reached. If he be a man of God . He should expose the uncle more if he's unrepentant till now. But if the Pastor lied he should be arrested .
