How did the church came about having Jesus and Mary's image/photo, was it from the bible? I am just wondering are the appearances given to him by various artists exact? If no why then should this be accepted/used by Christians?Your views please, Thanks. EDITED: |
![]() italo: Hurray! The dunce is back!I have not seen you shut up the other catholic female in this thread since ooo ![]() Dem dey ur side abi? Birds of thesame fea...... ![]() |
Zikkyy: @plappville, consider yourself lucky! i decided to tone down my response to your post after reading italo's post aboveWhat are you talking about? what has toilet got to do with this? Do you mean going to toilet is breaking Gods law then all righteous figures fall in ur trap. And what do u mean LUCKY? so Pope@ITALO has made sense to you? na waooo! |
@thread, keep praying over it, is only God that can direct you. No church seem to be practicing the perfect doctrine of Christ. You can only depend on ur bible for the complete truth. |
Jerry2i: Jesus has no lord n god ova him,4 he said dat 'I n My Father r 1'if this mean One person then why the i and my Father ? simple reasoning is needed dear! Galatians 3:28 There is neither Jew nor Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus. Through the Help of the Holy Spirit, Chritians are one In Christ. Christ and His Father are one in decision and works. when God decides, Christ carries it out. Two person cannot be ONE. Jesus have a God over Him. Stop clinging to me; for I have not yet ascended to the Father; but go to my brethren (disciples), and say to them, 'I ascend to my Father and your Father, and my God and your God.' (John 20: 17). The God of Jesus is our God according to the bible. |
Christ instructed us to Remeber his death not His birth. 1 Corinthians 11:23-26 (NIV) 23 For I received from the Lord what I also passed on to you: The Lord Jesus, on the night he was betrayed, took bread, 24 and when he had given thanks, he broke it and said, “This is my body, which is for you; do this in remembrance of me.” 25 In the same way, after supper he took the cup, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in my blood; do this, whenever you drink it, in remembrance of me.” 26 For whenever you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death until he comes. [size=18pt]should we replace this with paganism xmas?[/size] |
HumbledbYGrace: would there be death if birth was never there?We are not saying His birth is not important, Jesus came because of his "Death" to die for our sin, If He had not died, you would not be saved. See several verses. 1 Peter 3:18, (Romans 4:25 He was delivered over to death for our sins and was raised to life for our justification.) It is only in the "death" of Christ you became saved. He was born like every other prophets, but His "death" is not like every other prophets death. Romans 5:8 But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us 2 Corinthians 5:15 And he died for all, that those who live should no longer live for themselves but for him who died for them and was raised again. |
Zikkyy: You've not answered my question, but am going to let it go in the interest of peaceDont sound RIDICULOUS !! No man commanded toilet as a binding, just Like Xmas and other Paganism feast. U can keep xmas, the choice is up to you, ignoring all the warnings of Christ and adopting ur own, is a choice. |
ijawkid: It was thÉ sacrificial death of Jesus that brought hope to Jews and to gentiles and all,not his birth.......Jesus had always lived in the heavens......his death and not his birth is what was utmost.....This is just the truth, the bible made it clear to us. You finish work here ![]() |
HumbledbYGrace: Thread derailed lol! 2.His birth brought hope for the Jentiles right?u and me.We were not favoured by God remember?Yet He says: Matthew 15:24 Then Jesus said to the woman, "I was sent only to help God's lost sheep--the people of Israel." Dont u think His birth didn't guaranteed you salvation, because If He had refused Yahweh's order not to have died, Will His birth be of importance to you as a gentile? Ehpesians 2:14 For Christ himself has brought peace to us. He united Jews and Gentiles into one people when, in his own body on the cross, he broke down the wall of hostility that separated us It is Christ death that Guaranteed you salvation, you were not recongnised at all with His birth as the above verse stated. @Ijewkid had already told you this. So Jesus birth really means a lot to me that's I celebrate it,it may have been created by someone whom had different believes but that's wr his salvation wasIs it how you want it or how God wants it? Christianity would be too easy if its all about How we want it. The pagan do things how they want it, but Christian do things in following Gods instruction/command, hence God did not command Us to celebrate Christ birthday, why should we forge this and even forge a date to suit it. Well, this can mean alot to you, you are free to choose. If I may ask @ OP y don't u celebrate christmas?bible quotes plsWell my dear i don't celebrate a Pagan feast (christmas). because Christ warns against it. If you know the origin of Christmas you will agree with this verse. Matthew 15:9 They worship me in vain; their teachings are but rules taught by men.'" Colossians 2:22 These are all destined to perish with use, because they are based on human commands and teachings Conclusion: Christmas is all idle, empty, feltish and without any profit, because Its the commandments from men. God did not decleared it in His word. So know that Commandment of Men is a thing that turns men away from the Truth u can see (Titus 1:14), and if not repented of, it will prevent believers from Gods kingdom By their disobedience to the Truth. Trace Xmas origin properly Sister God bless. |
Na waoooh, tori don mixed hahaha, from christmas to easter, haloween etc I dey go bed, tomorrow i will pick up hahaha. |
jobaskia: I think a married man will hardly resort to that in any cirumstances that ensued. It is a woman that will see something is wrong with the way their mother-in law does things or say whenever she come visiting. You can hardly see men being unnecessarily talking about this and that.I agree with you, that is a good tool but most women are ignorant. Couple can have dispute, that doesn't mean the end. Wisdom must be applied in marriage or else ![]() Pastors are not different, they have thier own problems too. I believe Husband are wife should live like tongue and teeth. |
[size=18pt]waoooh @italo sabi lie ooo, see how he dey hid from answering a simple question because it will expose him!! God gave instructions to Israel, but that does not applies to you Catholic. You have been over fed. You will not abtain the truth because you are proud and stuborn.[/size] |
Discordia: maybe you never heard the quran was revealed from time to time eh? Different verses revealed at different places and time for different conditions , get it ? So nothing contradict anythingWaoooh, is that all you can say to refute those contradictions? ![]() |
ijawkid: When the isrealites offered up burnt offerings to Yahweh it was a straight instruction from Yahweh to them...Nice work @Ijewkid, i believe that anyone who truelly seek the truth would have been done with all the above. They keep argueing without scriptural proof. @italo done rest her case ![]() |
Zikkyy: ..and by celebrating Christ, who do you think am following?To the bolded!! Zikkyy:..and by celebrating Christ, who do you think am following?Can you show me where Jesus says that by celebrating His birthday is a sign of following Him? |
italo: LolMy dear look clearly at Ex 20:4 and also Ex 20:5. Images/Photos aren't idols. But images/photo or statues that you bow to and serve are idols, as seen in those pictures i posted. Catholics bow to and revere the RCC statues and images. Catholics serve them by having processions and lighting candles to them. We know that the coin that Jesus would have most likely used would have had the face of emperor Tiberius on it, who did rule during the time of Jesus' ministry. The Jews used this coin still, They didnt disobey God because the coin contains the image. They would have if they had worshiped, bowed or sarved it llike the Catholics do today. I do not bow or worship pictures. The European coin/cents carries images as well, using it to buy is different from worshiping it.

[size=30pt] Exodus 20:4 "You must not make for yourself an idol of any kind or an image of anything in the heavens or on the earth or in the sea.[/size] |
"The Assumption of Mary" The statue of Holy Mary carried around. This one na Paris "Notre dame e for happen. You wont believe the number of people this devilish act is misleading. Every August 15 is the Holy Day of the celebration of the Assumption of Mary. They claimed that After her "earthly life" she went to heaven to be reunited with Jesus Christ. Do you even have the date of her death? where did the scripure told us She died? prove it @italo, when did the scripture told you that Mary died and you should celebrate her death each year?

Laocoon Group in the Vatican Museum.... What will that woman and child do for you? Is the scripture not enough? Idolatry is the center doctrine of the Catholic.

italo: And I don't bow to the images...I just use it to draw my heart and mind to the one who was depicted by the image and ultimately to God who is the one that takes the glory for that person's piety. E.g When you see me in front of St. Peter's statue, I could be talking to St. Peter himself who is in heaven and can hear me. I could be saying: "St. Peter, pray for me that just as you gain strength through the outpouring of the Holy Spirit, I also may become a tireless preacher and defender of the Gospel of our Lord. I could then go on to say other prayers to God himself directly and/or through other Saints. Ultimately, all my prayers are to God and any kneeling, standing or bowing is directly for God and/or the position of honour that God has put that Saint.Where did the bible instructed you to talk with dead saints images? Can you show me any verse where righteous MOG carried image like in this picture?

italo: Non-Catholic Christians worshipping a manActs 8:14-19(NIV) 14 When the apostles in Jerusalem heard that Samaria had accepted the word of God, they sent Peter and John to Samaria. 15 When they arrived, they prayed for the new believers there that they might receive the Holy Spirit, 16 because the Holy Spirit had not yet come on any of them; they had simply been baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. 17 Then Peter and John placed their hands on them, and they received the Holy Spirit. 18 When Simon saw that the Spirit was given at the laying on of the apostles’ hands, he offered them money 19 and said, “Give me also this ability so that everyone on whom I lay my hands may receive the Holy Spirit.” |
italo: Stop worshipping Bible. E dey fall your hand.No one dey worship bible, when you come out to be prayed for, some people take thier bible along with them. This does not means they worship it. Someone created a thread few weeks back, that she lost her bible in the church when she left it on her sit to recieve prayers or so. I will find the topic and post if u care. The laying of Hands is scriptural, Its a way of invoking the Holy spirit. Isaac blessed his son Jacob by laying on of hands (Genesis 27:27) Acts 8:14-19(NIV) 14 When the apostles in Jerusalem heard that Samaria had accepted the word of God, they sent Peter and John to Samaria. 15 When they arrived, they prayed for the new believers there that they might receive the Holy Spirit, 16 because the Holy Spirit had not yet come on any of them; they had simply been baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus. 17[b] Then Peter and John placed their hands on them, and they received the Holy Spirit.[/b] 18 When Simon saw that the Spirit was given at the laying on of the apostles’ hands, he offered them money 19 and said, “Give me also this ability so that everyone on whom I lay my hands may receive the Holy Spirit.” [size=18pt]You have been overfed,!!![/size] |
truthislight: Roman 15:4Wonderful write up, They are ignoring the fact that the bible presented birthday events, but these events were for Pagans. And we learnt that The outcome of the parties resulted to killing. Why should the Scripture be silent on Christ birthday party. No righteous figure celebrated it. So what are we talking about? "ANOTHER PAGAN" practice. Saint Valentine is in few months to come, @Italo...where are you? ![]() |
italo: The question of "how can you" does not arise, because we created it. Simple.As usual, all Catholics will cliam they gave us the bible in order for them to defend thier "Sacred Traditions". The Bible tells us to obey the Word of God, to not go beyond the "written Word", so that we might not make mistakes in what is true. "Now these things, brethren, I have figuratively applied to myself and Apollos for your sakes, that in us you might learn not to exceed what is written, in order that no one of you might become arrogant in behalf of one against the other," (1 Cor. 4:6). Did the Catholic truelly gave us the bible? God promises that He will presarved His words. If Catholics had presarved the bible, they would have made it surport thier doctrines. I will find some verses to disprove this ur regular claim. But know that the above verse is warning you. And what about the OT that Christ used when He was on earth, Did the Catholic also gave it? because its part of the Bible! |
Our Country cannot perish in our eyes, we must continue praying for Her. A must do. |
[quote author=xtrafly][/quote]Tell me, are you the right owner of the "OPINION" image you posted? what website did you copied it from? |
truthislight: Whats wrong with copying information from that site if it does not contradict the bible?Good question, nice one!! |
Revelation 18:4 Then I heard another voice from heaven say: "Come out of her, my people, so that you will not share in her sins, so that you will not receive any of her plagues; There is nothing stange in what we are seeing because the scriture fortold it. What is strange is that many are ignorent of the several warning from the Bible!!!! |
Ancient Egyptian Sun god copied by Catholic... On the on "top" is an image of the Catholic Monstrance and "undown" is an early picture of sun worship in Egypt. Look at the image of the sun in both pictures.
