Kokaine:

Don't worry about the return of Jesus( May Allah be pleased with him) worry about your own death. Because when you die, it no longer matter to you when he came. He will return. He will return at the time God decides. But before then, worry about your death and your grave from which you cannot make any new decision afterwards. That's what's important to you.
How is this something I don't know?

Abeg sharraaaap! Rapture already happened at the lekki toll gate! The man died many years ago as we were told in the stories.... He is not coming back! If you die, you die! What you preach is a lame man understanding of the bible.... the fact that the bible says he is coming back doesn't actually mean he is coming back. The bible says it was asked in heaven... Who shall i send and jesus christ said... Here i am lord, send me but do you know that jesus christ himself is God? So you are literarily telling me that God asked who shall i send and he reolied himself saying here i am lord send me? Make una get sense oooo. 90% of what the bible has said has a true meaning... Not a lame man meaning. So get lost

Bible verses:

Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field:



But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way.



But when the blade was sprung up, and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tares also.



So the servants of the householder came and said unto him, Sir, didst not thou sow good seed in thy field? from whence then hath it tares?



He said unto them, An enemy hath done this. The servants said unto him, Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up?



But he said, Nay; lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them.



Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn.



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:



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.



Another parable spake he unto them; The kingdom of heaven is like unto leaven, which a woman took, and hid in three measures of meal, till the whole was leavened.



Matthew 13:24-33 (KJV)

Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto treasure hid in a field; the which when a man hath found, he hideth, and for joy thereof goeth and selleth all that he hath, and buyeth that field.



Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a merchant man, seeking goodly pearls:



Matthew 13:44-45 (KJV)



Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a net, that was cast into the sea, and gathered of every kind:



Which, when it was full, they drew to shore, and sat down, and gathered the good into vessels, but cast the bad away.



So shall it be at the end of the world: the angels shall come forth, and sever the wicked from among the just,



And shall cast them into the furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.



Matthew 13:47-50 (KJV)



And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.



Matthew 16:19 (KJV)

And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.



Matthew 18:3 (KJV)

Therefore is the kingdom of heaven likened unto a certain king, which would take account of his servants.



And when he had begun to reckon, one was brought unto him, which owed him ten thousand talents.



But forasmuch as he had not to pay, his lord commanded him to be sold, and his wife, and children, and all that he had, and payment to be made.



The servant therefore fell down, and worshipped him, saying, Lord, have patience with me, and I will pay thee all.



Then the lord of that servant was moved with compassion, and loosed him, and forgave him the debt.



But the same servant went out, and found one of his fellowservants, which owed him an hundred pence: and he laid hands on him, and took him by the throat, saying, Pay me that thou owest.



And his fellowservant fell down at his feet, and besought him, saying, Have patience with me, and I will pay thee all.



And he would not: but went and cast him into prison, till he should pay the debt.



So when his fellowservants saw what was done, they were very sorry, and came and told unto their lord all that was done.



Then his lord, after that he had called him, said unto him, O thou wicked servant, I forgave thee all that debt, because thou desiredst me:



Shouldest not thou also have had compassion on thy fellowservant, even as I had pity on thee?



And his lord was wroth, and delivered him to the tormentors, till he should pay all that was due unto him.



So likewise shall my heavenly Father do also unto you, if ye from your hearts forgive not every one his brother their trespasses.



Matthew 18:23-35 (KJV)



But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven.



Matthew 19:14 (KJV)





Then said Jesus unto his disciples, Verily I say unto you, That a rich man shall hardly enter into the kingdom of heaven.



And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.



Matthew 19:23-24 (KJV)



For the kingdom of heaven is like unto a man that is an householder, which went out early in the morning to hire labourers into his vineyard.



And when he had agreed with the labourers for a penny a day, he sent them into his vineyard.



And he went out about the third hour, and saw others standing idle in the marketplace,



And said unto them; Go ye also into the vineyard, and whatsoever is right I will give you. And they went their way.



Again he went out about the sixth and ninth hour, and did likewise.



And about the eleventh hour he went out, and found others standing idle, and saith unto them, Why stand ye here all the day idle?



They say unto him, Because no man hath hired us. He saith unto them, Go ye also into the vineyard; and whatsoever is right, that shall ye receive.



So when even was come, the lord of the vineyard saith unto his steward, Call the labourers, and give them their hire, beginning from the last unto the first.



And when they came that were hired about the eleventh hour, they received every man a penny.



But when the first came, they supposed that they should have received more; and they likewise received every man a penny.



And when they had received it, they murmured against the goodman of the house,



Saying, These last have wrought but one hour, and thou hast made them equal unto us, which have borne the burden and heat of the day.



But he answered one of them, and said, Friend, I do thee no wrong: didst not thou agree with me for a penny?



Take that thine is, and go thy way: I will give unto this last, even as unto thee.



Is it not lawful for me to do what I will with mine own? Is thine eye evil, because I am good?



So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many be called, but few chosen.



Matthew 20:1-16 (KJV)



Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom.



And five of them were wise, and five were foolish.



They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them:



But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.



While the bridegroom tarried, they all slumbered and slept.



And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him.



Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps.



And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out.



But the wise answered, saying, Not so; lest there be not enough for us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves.



And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut.



Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us.



But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not.



Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh.



For the kingdom of heaven is as a man travelling into a far country, who called his own servants, and delivered unto them his goods.



And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to every man according to his several ability; and straightway took his journey.



Then he that had received the five talents went and traded with the same, and made them other five talents.



And likewise he that had received two, he also gained other two.



But he that had received one went and digged in the earth, and hid his lord's money.



After a long time the lord of those servants cometh, and reckoneth with them.



And so he that had received five talents came and brought other five talents, saying, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me five talents: behold, I have gained beside them five talents more.



His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.



He also that had received two talents came and said, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me two talents: behold, I have gained two other talents beside them.



His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.



Then he which had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I knew thee that thou art an hard man, reaping where thou hast not sown, and gathering where thou hast not strawed:



And I was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the earth: lo, there thou hast that is thine.



His lord answered and said unto him, Thou wicked and slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I have not strawed:



Thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the exchangers, and then at my coming I should have received mine own with usury.



Take therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him which hath ten talents.



For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath.



And cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.



Matthew 25:1-30 (KJV)



But when Jesus saw it, he was much displeased, and said unto them, Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God.



Mark 10:14 (KJV)



And Jesus looked round about, and saith unto his disciples, How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God!



And the disciples were astonished at his words. But Jesus answereth again, and saith unto them, Children, how hard is it for them that trust in riches to enter into the kingdom of God!



It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.



Mark 10:23-25 (KJV)



And he said, Unto you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God: but to others in parables; that seeing they might not see, and hearing they might not understand.



Luke 8:10 (KJV)



Then said he, Unto what is the kingdom of God like? and whereunto shall I resemble it?



It is like a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and cast into his garden; and it grew, and waxed a great tree; and the fowls of the air lodged in the branches of it.



Luke 13:18-19 (KJV)

Then said he unto him, A certain man made a great supper, and bade many:



And sent his servant at supper time to say to them that were bidden, Come; for all things are now ready.



And they all with one consent began to make excuse. The first said unto him, I have bought a piece of ground, and I must needs go and see it: I pray thee have me excused.



And another said, I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I go to prove them: I pray thee have me excused.



And another said, I have married a wife, and therefore I cannot come.



So that servant came, and shewed his lord these things. Then the master of the house being angry said to his servant, Go out quickly into the streets and lanes of the city, and bring in hither the poor, and the maimed, and the halt, and the blind.



And the servant said, Lord, it is done as thou hast commanded, and yet there is room.



And the lord said unto the servant, Go out into the highways and hedges, and compel them to come in, that my house may be filled.



For I say unto you, That none of those men which were bidden shall taste of my supper.



Luke 14:16-24 (KJV)

But soul, soul, we remind thee yet again, as we cannot understand thy sleep, and thou canst not justify it, we would solemnly beg thee to consider that thy sleep will soon end in ruin. Ah, there are some of you whose hearts I shall never reach. Let me live as long as I may, I shall never see you saved. There are some of you— I have often made you weep, but the Lord has not made you hate your sins. Some of you love drunkenness, and though you leave it for a little season, yet all the entreaties of the minister and all the pleadings of your conscience cannot keep you from returning like a dog to your vomit, and like a sow that is washed to her wallowing in the mire. Oh, my hearers, there are some of you— I have not quite despaired of you, but I tell you solemnly it has almost come to that. O that ye would know even now in this your day the things which make for your peace. Oh, how I fear, and think I have just cause to fear, that there are some of you who will sit in this Tabernacle till you die, and you will go from this place to hell with my voice of entreaty ringing in your ears. I have prayed for you, and you are not saved; I have levelled sermons at you, and you have not been moved; I have preached plainly to your face against your iniquity, and laid your sin before your eyes, and ye have not repented; I have held up my Master’s bleeding body and ye have not been wooed to love. Ye have been convicted for a season, and ye have hushed the voice of conscience; ye have vowed, and ye have broken your vows; ye have turned again to your folly, and ye are still what you were, senseless, stolid, hardened, dead in sin. I shall not for ever hammer at this granite; not always shall the horses run upon the rock, nor shall we plough there with oxen, for God shall lay judgment to the line and righteousness to the plummet, and where are ye then? Oh! if we knew by express revelations, concerning any man here present that he would be one day in hell, if looking into his eyes we could read there, “That man will dwell for ever in torments,” should we not weep over him? Yet I fear me there are such here. I fear me— may God remove the fear by his grace— I fear me there are such. “Lord, is it I?” let each one say— "Lord, is it I?” Well, sinner, thou shalt go sleeping on. Thou wilt go home to thy house to-day and forget all that I have said; thou wilt come again to-night, but the result will be the same; like the door on its hinges thou wilt turn in and out without a change all thy days. See man, thou wilt listen to my voice, it will be to thee as a pleasing song but nothing more; thou wilt be all thy life as the deaf adder which cannot be charmed. Thou wilt now and then murmur in thy sleep, “The preacher is too earnest, and makes too much noise about these melancholy matters, or he is too prone to dwell on these hard threatenings.” You will return to a deeper sleep, and so continue year by year. How do you approve of the prospect? But stay, let me finish the story. One day there will run a rumour among us, “So-and-so who sat in that pew is dead.” “Did he die in the Lord?” will be our solemn question. And the answer will be, “We fear not; he showed no signs of repentance or of faith in Christ.” Ah then, what must our conclusion be. Well sinner, well, do me this one favour. If thou wilt be damned, let me be clear of thy blood. Do me but this one service— if thou wilt perish let it not be laid to the door of my unfaithfulness. If there be anyone here present, stranger or regular attendant, who will choose his own perdition, I charge thee pay some regard to my earnest protest, for I enter it now before the Lord. Be damned if thou wilt, but do let me first of all stand before you and tell you what damnation means, and tell you that there is a way of salvation. Let me stretch out these hands again and plead with you that ye would come to Christ, that ye might live. “What meanest thou, O sleeper? Arise, call upon thy God,” for it may soon be too late for thee to arise. None will be able to warn thee soon, none will weep for thee soon, none will entreat thee soon. When once the iron gates are shut, and the brazen bolts are drawn; all the friendship of earth or the fury of hell cannot unlock them; the awful gratings of those bolts that shut in souls for ever in fell despair, shall be ever in thine ears, covering thee with hopeless dismay. Now I pray you while yet there is hope. “Awake! arise, or be for ever fallen!”

THIS IS WILL COME AS A SHOCK BUT THE TIME FOR THE TRUTH IS NEARER

the second coming of Jesus has already happen, Jesus came around APRIL 12TH 2000 but was seen by only one person

alot of people are still waiting too bad for them, but know this, his coming was spiritual and he chose whom to visit, and unfortunately for most men of God, he chose one and what will happen next in d world will shake every where, NEW EARTH IS COMING with new LAW

NO RELIGION
NO WEAPON OF MASS DESTRUCTION


before then ..alot of people will die...CORONA VIRUS WAS DIVINE AND MANY MORE

wont talk on this again until we are mandate by the Current God on Course

FYI...this earth is more than 30billion yr and also Satan wasn't a fallen ANGEL

Because He's a merciful God. He doesn't want anyone to perish, but all to come unto repentance. He knows some still haven't given their lives to Him, He's giving them time to repent. But know this; we are in the time of grace and it will definitely come to an end one day. Jesus Christ is coming very soon, He will come anytime from now. Please, let's be prepared! His grace shall be sufficient for us all. Amen.

But we never have to worry if Musa or John don't make heaven. Evangelism is the common purpose of any Christian's existence and a constant awareness of his return soon. The fact that the next man could end in a fiery place of torment for all eternity is not something any Christian can bear to see.
THEY MIGHT BEAR TO SEE IT SINCE THEY BELIEVE THAT CHRIST IS THE BIOLOGICAL SON OF GOD.



THE ABOVE STATEMENT IS THE GREATEST OF ALL SINS IN THE SIGHT OF GOD

If we have being risen with Christ, the next step is to prepare for the coming of Christ, by seeking above Where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.

Here are seven ways to prepare for the coming of Christ.

1) We need to receive Jesus Christ into our life (hope), and receive the Holy Ghost (Righteousness).


2) We need to be baptized with water. It signifies repentance and cleansing of the old ways.


3) We need to walk humbly, love mercy and forgiveness.


4) We need to pray for the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ.

5) We need to seek the kingdom of God and it righteousness.


6) We need to praise, glorify and give thanks to God and do all things to the glory of God.

7) We need to be watcful and sober, praying in tongues of heaven and meditating on the Words of God.







There is nothing like the second coming. Keep on believing in these myths. 5,000 years from now your type will still be waiting. Live your life to the fullest, love your fellow man (for how can you claim to love a God you have not seen when you can't love the man you see?). Do good for this life is one. Anything else is mere belief systems. Peace

undecided

Did you know that in the bible, the apostles knew when their time was at least close? undecided
Jesua informed His followers of how they will go even before He left the earth. Even Stephen knew when it was time for him to go...there was nothing unexpected about their deaths. undecided

Stud the Holy Bible to show yourself approved. If you gain knowledge and understanding of the Words in the Scripture, you are on the right path.
The Word is a light to us and to every darkness.

God loves you!
Prepare for the Second coming of Jesus Christ.

Colossians 3:1 If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.

It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.

John 6:63 (KJV)

John 15:7-8 If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.
Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples.

John 4:23-24 But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.
God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth

You are studying only the new testament
That is wrong...start from the beginning..


And see if God approved of your idolatry..

Monogamy:


What exactly is Christ coming back to do on earth? What did he forget that wants to make him come back?

Can't he go to other planets like Jupiter , Venus , Mars and preach the words of God to them..

I really don't know how educated people would continue to be delusionally deceiving themselves all in the name of religion.


Some people just mumu for this life sha.
They say God is an Unquestionable God and when something bad happens to their pastor, he will come to d altar and say he prayed and fasted cos he’s seeking for the face of the lord on the bad thing that happened to him and God revealed what happened to him. Those people are confused lot, if jesus like he should come back, na him sabi.


Well, as for me and my house, wisdom will be the principal thing for me.
