How come the person who is supposed to have the calling don't hear from God gangan but from other people? |

I might sound condescending here but I’ve got no other way of putting it in all honestly. It is very dangerous to put the Bible or Quran in the hands of people with very low IQ |

gaventa: You have no proof? Do you? How can you be breathing and reason like this? Who or what is the source of the air you breath in and out? What about the marvel of how the brain is designed? How humans and animals conceived and give birth to young ones alive? The wonders of how a plant grow and produce fruit? Evidence of God in the world around us are abundant even for the blinds to see. |

rottennaija: Na wa o! You just leave the substance and start chasing shadows. I endured reading your epistle hoping to make any meaning of it but ahhhhhhh! Empty. So, when God take all righteous people to heaven, what happens to the earth? Give scriptural backing please. Because I couldn't find any above to support your point. Thanks. 2 Likes |

Kobojunkie: You are muddling things up here... Heavenly calling: there is a call to be saved (Salvation) and there are calls into the greater heavenly assignment. Hebrews 5:4 And no man taketh this honour unto himself, but he that is called of God, as was Aaron." |

All what you have said has many ways to be explained. Are you trying to say the only way you can explain the existence of a force behind creation is true Religion. Don’t mistake me for an atheist. I am Not one, I just share a different and more explicit concept of the force behind creation. The creator is not man nor woman, no one knows. From mystery we have come and to mystery we will return. There are over 4000 religions on the world and each of them have their provisions about the creator and they all differ. I find it very disheartening that Africans will never be able to view their creator if not through the Christian and Islam ways. I know there is a force behind creation and I know it’s not what the Bible and Quran said because those were written according to Hebrew/Greek and Arab culture and I am neither Hebrew nor Arab.

rottennaija: What was the purpose for creating the earth in the first place? Is it the planet earth that sinned or humans? Was the first man and woman created in heaven or on earth If Adam had not sinned, would there be a need to go to the even? The bible says those going to heaven are going there to rule has king and priest. If all good people are going to heaven, who are they going to rule over? Afterall a kingdom has a king, co-rulers and sunjects |

Emperorlanky: If you couldn't see any meaning from what I wrote, how will you see any meaning when I start posting scriptures? Again, does it make what I wrote invalid? How many planets have you been in? And how do you derive evidence that life only exist in earth? Or let me ask again, the spirit forms, are they life? Can such life not be taken away? Like I said, we only know very little and we don't know the limit of what we know... Or do you? 2000 years ago, did we know of viruses? Bacteria? Today we know of these life forms that causes problems for us. How do you invalidate my argument that the earth is a much better place without human? Any idea? Or you want to look at everything through the lens of the Bible that was written when human have limited understanding of the universe around it? |

I was told in my dream that I am a prophet. In the dream, we were many, the cloud changed, we all knelt down outside and kept saying "Lord I am ready", I also said that, then God brought a red limozine car and prophets were entering, then a woman said if she sees a prophet that she will know, then she brought out a book which the names of prophets are written, my name was there, she pointed at me and said that I am a prophet. Before the dream, two different prophets told me that I am a prophet but I rejected it and didnt believe them, till I had the dream, e shock me. Though I have been manifesting dream revelation gift, I dream about things that will happen. 1 Like |

=jossytech Those needed in heaven already filled, rest will be on Earth stop dreaming, d heaven is for the Lord and d earth He gives the son of man. Psalm 115:16 Then Jesus said in Math 5:5 about his earthly subjects, he already talk or few rep in his kingdom in Mathew 5:3 Also remember the Lord prayer let you will take place on Earth as it's in heaven. People should stop illusion of I'm going heaven things. Heaven is not for human that why Adam was created into a garden. YOU MADE MY DAY...... NICE COMMENT..... MOST PEOPLE'S WANT TO ESCAPE TO HEAVEN AFTER DESTROYING THIS WONDERFUL EARTH. ITS NOT LOGICAL AT ALL, NO LANDLORD WE EVER SET HIS OWN HOUSE ON FIRE JUST because THE OCCUPANTS FAILED TO OBEY THE IS RULE & REGULATIONS OR because THEY ARE SINNER'S BUT RATHER QUIT ALL THR BAD ONE'S AND MAKE PROPER RENOVATION OF HIS PROPERTY TO SUIT THE NEED OF INCOME TENANTS. THE FACT REMAIN THAT, GOD WILL MUST BE DONE ON EARTH JUST AS IT IS DONE IN HEAVEN. |

Oracleforce:I am afraid there is no such thing as a "heavenly calling". The Gospel of the Kingdom of God is meant to call all to the promise of Heaven. Those who believe are saved and expected to accept and obey the teachings of Jesus Christ by which they can then achieve Heaven. Should they refuse, then it is Hell for them for believing. It is that simple! |

ogtechinc: According to Jesus Christ, the way to be sin is to accept, and obey His teachings. And it is those who do that, that are set free from sin and He, and His Father will abide in.

jcross19:There is only one Shepherd for His Sheep and that is Jesus Christ. He alone is the good shepherd... any other person who installs himself as shepherd over Jesus Christ's flock is a fraud! There are no special "Heavenly callings". Instead, the Gospel of the Kingdom of Heaven calls everyone to believe and become born of the Spirit/Sons of God in order that they might enjoy the Kingdom of Heaven in the end. Unfortunately, many who believe will instead be deceived by doctrines such as theses into occupying the Kingdom of Hell instead. 1 Like |

Kobojunkie:funny another name for Shepherd is a pastor so get that fact... It's clear that you lack bible understanding, john the Baptist was called to prepare way for Christ the same Jesus chose 12 disciples for His ministry, and prayed for more labourers.... Paul too was a chosen vessel as well even all those bandits, killer herdsmen and bokoharams some of them have an heavenly mandate too.. |

ChocolateWine:Why Heaven? ChocolateWine:Because the Earth is man's kingdom and God's Kingdom is not of this world. ChocolateWine:The same science tells you that planets don't live forever. So, I am not certain what you are trying to get at here. ChocolateWine:All whom become angels? ChocolateWine:Is man taking great care of the earth even now? ChocolateWine:Angels maybe, but men are not angels. |

DappaD: Sir/Ma, what do you mean by Romans 8:15-17 doesn't apply to the commentators here? You're not implying that Jehovah witnesses are the only heirs of God on earth and the rest are doomed slaves, are you? #This last note isn't addressed to you# It's pathetic how we've allowed religion to turn us into conceited self-righteous folks, complicating a simple gospel of God's love that should be a lifestyle and not a 'church' or 'Assembly' thing we do religiously. All this stuff on this thread, arguments about whether the earth will last or not, or if people will go to heaven or remain here are reasons some folks got confused at the division and hence left the faith. |

Nuttella:Guess what? Every one of Jesus Christ's followers(Jesus Christ abides in them)i.e. born again, is a prophet for no longer does God speak through some, but all of His followers. |
Re: How Does A Person Know That He Or She Has The Heavenly Calling? by Kobojunkie: 6:45pm On Mar 28, 2021 |
jcross19:Funny, Jesus Christ declared that He alone is the GOOD shepherd. So what does that tell you of every other person out there claiming to be a shepherd? They are definitely not GOOD i.e. bad. John the Baptist was not a shepherd... He was a prophet called according to the Old Covenant. Jesus Christ made it clear that He did not call His disciples to be shepherds but instead as Fishers of men, and the labourers who are called to work in His Vineyard, are called, not as Shepherds but as Fishers of men/workers. So, I am not sure where your idea to call them shepherds come from since it does not come from Jesus Christ. |

Kobojunkie:I don't have strength to argue with you this night. You have started with everybody is a prophet talk, come and prophecy the future events to me. You think simple prophecy that os used for exaltation and confort is same with prophesying future event and plans of God is the same. All of us are called but some of us are called into the 5 fold ministry. |
Re: How Does A Person Know That He Or She Has The Heavenly Calling? by Kobojunkie: 7:16pm On Mar 28, 2021 |
Nuttella:You only need to engage your mind for a bit to understanding the meaning here. A prophet is one whom God Speaks through. In the New Covenant, everyone who accepts(trusts) and obeys the teachings/commandments of Jesus Christ are called Sons of God, Jesus Christ through His Spirit, will abide in and speak through... i.e. they are prophets. So, there is no such thing as the special office of prophecy and all of that hogwash many like to tell themselves.. there are instead Children of God, all of them, prophets, according to their Father in Heaven. |
