Enigma:
This bit really gets me; I mean it makes me so so sad that I have to confront the fact that Joagbaje now seems evidently to be a deceiver ---- perhaps because of the comforts and lucre he is enjoying as a Christ Embassy "pastor"; in the beginning I thought he was just misguided; now I think he is in fact guided by his belly.
naah, not with that level of scripture bending, truth evading acrobatics he consistently displays grin

Seriously, I really believe a christian brother who's got nothing to hide & no unChristly interests to preserve will never act the way these fellows do.

I just wonder how they sleep at night after being told they uphold a doctrine without any valid scriptural backing. The GO's word against God's word shocked

Recently a friend posted on his wall on facebook that he wondered where "believers" of today got the idea that they could pray their enemies drop dead and that the last time he checked, the bible clearly instructed that we not only do good to those who hate us and despitefully use us but love them, not pray that harm come to them or worse still, that they drop dead! smiley

After a few comments, some fellows showed up in defence of the doctrine. Couldn't provide a single scripture that even suggested that christians can pray their enemies dead, continously evaded scripture after scripture and question and after question presented, kept making scripturally stupid excuses, disappeared, reappeared. . . only to copy and paste something from one of "Dr." Olukoya's materials - and that was them giving into pressure to provide scriptural backing for their position grin

Enigma:
In addition to the very good posts by Nuke and Petres, is the story below also literally true? Afterall there was no use of "likened to", "is like" etc etc.
Hmm. . . Excellent one here, Enigma! Another real life account parable where Jesus didn't give a 'notice'.

Enigma:
Meanwhile, do people notice that Joagbaje has so far not denied the implications of his claim that Jesus was born again as I set out earlier. Also, do people notice that neither he nor the rest of his supporters has disowned the heresies of Copeland etc that Jesus was tortured by satan and demons ---- which is associated with/part of the "Jesus died spiritually" argument made by Joagbaje & co?
I was trying to get Donnie to educate us on what informed such heretical claims using scripture. Dunno where he's at now. . . maybe he ran out of passages and verses to misfire at me grin

And err. . . come o. . . why is it that anytime these fellows (like Joeagbaje & donnie) seem backed into a corner they just do the rentaghost thingy enh? This is why I keep saying it isn't only the demigods (oyaks & co.) who truly know what they're doing. If peeps like Joeagbaje & donnie really were sincere, they wouldn't run off when their views are exposed this way.

nuclearboy:
I see that we have to take this to a logical conclusion.

Lets start with background - Christ spoke ONLY in Parables to the multitude. He never spoke plainly to them.

"And He begins to speak to them in parables." (Mark 12:1).

"All these things Jesus speaks in parables to the throngs, and apart from a parable He spoke nothing to them, " (Matt 13:34).

Jesus spoke in parables so that his listeners would not understand His Words

The fact that Jesus spoke to the masses in parables only, ought to be sufficient Scriptural evidence to anyone that "Lazarus and the Rich man" is indeed a parable.
Right on point! grin
Christianity EtcRe: When Did The Apostles Become Born Again? by petres007(m): 3:31pm On Feb 01, 2011
Albert Barnes on Luke 16:19:


Verse 19. There was a certain rich man. Many have supposed that our Lord here refers to a real history, and gives an account of some man who had lived in this manner; but of this there is no evidence. The probability is that this narrative is to be considered as a parable, referring not to any particular case which had actually happened, but teaching that such cases might happen.

The design of the narrative is to be collected from the previous conversation. He had taught the danger of the love of money (Lu 16:1,2); the deceitful and treacherous nature of riches (Lu 16:9-11); that what was in high esteem on earth was hateful to God (Lu 16:15); that men who did not use their property aright could not be received into heaven (Lu 16:11,12); that they ought to listen to Moses and the prophets (Lu 16:16,17); and that it was the duty of men to show kindness to the poor.

The design of the parable was to impress all these truths more vividly on the mind, and to show the Pharisees that, with all their boasted righteousness and their external correctness of character, they might be lost. Accordingly he speaks of no great fault in the rich man --no external, degrading vice--no open breach of the law; and leaves us to infer that the mere possession of wealth may be dangerous to the soul, and that a man surrounded with every temporal blessing may perish for ever.


Thought this might help. smiley

donnie:


Eph 4: 8
When He ascended on high, he led captives in His train and gave gifts to men.




Ephes. 4:9
   (What does 'he ascended' mean except that he also descended to the lower, earthly regions?




Matthew 27:50-53
   Jesus, when he had cried again with a loud voice, yielded up the ghost. [51] And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent; [52] And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose, [53] And came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many.


From where did these come? Where were these captives locked up?
Donnie,

Thanks for your response. But that passage says nowhere that Jesus went to hell. Like Nuke pointed out, it says clearly where those fellows came from - their graves. Leaves no room for any kind of speculation.

And by the way, that wasn't the verse I was expecting you to throw at me. Its even more "suggestive" than this passage you've quoted. I'll leave you to figure out which one. wink

donnie:
When you read the king James, bear in mind that in the original Greek we didn't have punctuations.

Luke 23:43
And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee, To day shalt thou be with me in paradise.


See what happens when you move the coma from after the word 'thee' to after the word 'To day'.

Luke 23:43
And Jesus said unto him, Verily I say unto thee To day, thou shalt be with me in paradise.
My view on this too.

donnie:
Bear in mind also that Jesus did not go straight to heaven from the cross, He descended into hell because he bore our sins.
err. . . this is the part I have a problem with. Looks like something lifted from Copeland's heresies in this regard.

Kindly help clear this up by doing the needful - book, chapter & verse wink

Christianity EtcRe: Here's How Christianity Will End by petres007(m): 9:36pm On Jan 21, 2011
ROSSIKE:
Here's how christianity will end - a time comes in the future of unprecedented global catastrophe. Jesus does NOT arrive despite the prayers and bible - wrought expectation of millions. Many are annihilated. NONE are taken up in any ''rapture'', and faith in the deity known as Jesus, comes to a widespread, crushing end.

A hundred years later, his worship is virtually forgotten among the world's peoples.

Confined to the dusty pages of history books.

A mere memory.

A mere academic reflection.

Undertaken by the odd nutty professor.

It will be similar to the end of the worship of earlier gods like Horus, Osiris, Mithra, Dionysus etc.

It will be the same with Jesus.

To fill the spiritual void, new Chris Oyakhilomes of the future no doubt, will invent a ''saviour'' out of thin air like their predecessors did, complete with fairytales, ''miracles'', ''prophecies'', and even a ''holy book'', milk it for all its worth, charge gate fees, drain the poor of their hard-earned wealth, as the cycle of deceit, exploitation, and greed continues unabated.

I'm sure I saw even crazier and annoying videos of those con artists on YouTube 2 years ago. One of such readily comes to mind Involving ("Papa" Hagin, Kenneth & Gloria Copeland). Maybe when I have some free time I'll start threads on one or two of them.

I guess what you are making reference to the Rapture of the church.  The rapture of the church is not the same as the The second coming of christ . The rapture is the next immediate experience for the church. [/b]It is [b]a disappearance of Christians from the earth which will take place within split of second (twilking of an eye)
@JoeAgbaje,

Anyway.  .  .  grin

I really shouldn't be surprised you've said this sha. It's standard WolF end time teaching.

I'll just address this your unbiblical idea of Christians disappearing "in the twinkling of an eye" as stated by you in the quote above.


Here's the passage from 1 Corinthians 15 where Paul used that phrase "in the twinkling of an eye" -


[i]50 I tell you this, brethren: flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, nor does the perishable inherit the imperishable.

51 Lo! I tell you a mystery. We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed,

52 [color=#990000]in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye
, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised imperishable, and we shall be changed.

53 For this perishable nature must put on the imperishable, and this mortal nature must put on immortality.
[/color][/i]



The phrase as used by Paul, has absolutely nothing to do with a sudden/secret disappearance of Christians as bandied about by you WolFers, Uncle Joe  grin grin grin

Na just classical WolF Modus Operandi - take a verse of scripture out of context and make it say something very different from what the author was talking about grin

Paul was talking about the changing of our earthly, mortal bodies to the incorruptible, immortal ones which every one who rests in Christ (and of course, those alive at the time) will receive, "in the twinkling of an eye", at the return of the Lord Jesus.  wink
