Jesus was and still remain a King even before he was born. So it is an insult to say that He was titled.


Yeah, carpenter king!

I'm not surprised because you're an anti-Christian.

But I tell you the truth, a time will come when you will look for salvation but won't find.

You can say whatever you like now with your short life on earth.

AntiChristian:

I never mentioned anything about him accepting or rejecting the title!
He was titled sha!

The only title Jesus was given before his birth is "CHRIST" but he wasn't ready to bear the title because he knew the only reason why the Jews need Christ is to lead them to preaching and teaching other nations not to start ruling over them instantly. But that's what the Jews wanted in the first century a King that will lead them to conquer all their enemies most especially Romans.
So when Jesus taught them to love their enemies {Matthew 5:43-48} they find it absorb some specifically asked him if their neighbours includes people who aren't Jews so he use an illustration to teach them that anyone could be a well meaning neighbour! Luke 10:25-37

How in God's name is this supposed to relate to my first comment on this thread?

It takes intelligence to understand certain things, do you really need to resort to insults?

Why all this epistle?

Our lord Christ Jesus throughout his life never sort for human recognition and praises, never sought for worldly glory. He was hated for preaching an unpopular message.
Today he was the greatest man who ever lived,he change the course of history.

if someone like baba ADEBOYE doesn't have any chieftaincy title, then I don't think I need one as a Christian. because baba is my role model.

Wfat is the difference with other international, academic and social awards

You have a very weird and worrisome way of reasoning.

You quoted me twice and both your comments didn't relate with mine in any way. I asked you a very honest question and you translated it to be an insult.

Your opinions are taking very different directions from mine and in my sincere assessment, a man can only be that way if he's under the influence of drugs or alcohol.

Where's the insult please?

Talk true, you meant to say he is your god? Role model is just your coded way of saying god since you know that if you say so, you don finish everything.

I'm sure you used to score very poor marks in english comprehension while in secondary school. You should have tried to look up the meaning of "a role model" before posting this stuff

Yes, you cannot serve God and mamon. The throne of iniquity has nothing to do with God's throne. Anyone can argue anything; they make rituals, sacrifice to idols which God detests.

Take a corner, and meditate.
Jesus said anyone against me will be pulverised.

Why do the loudest Christians talk like they never went to school? undecided

We are talking chieftancy and Christian, you dey talk school, examin yourself. you jus wan say something but you no get any reasonable thing to say.
Re: Is It Wrong For A Christian To Obtain A Chieftaincy Title? by vdestro: 2:34pm On Jul 03, 2023
Ameduedwin:
do you know that chieftain title is basically to rule the people of the land, and every land have tradition, so because you are Christian you now throw away your tradition and to rule your people now become forbidden abi ? You have been brain Wash

A Christian already has rule and he knows that God has regulated his rule so that he can enjoy his life. So any extra rule means trouble because a Christian knows that rule means you are a steward who will give account about the affairs.

So, i know that no Christian will want to increase his wahala with God when it is already hard managing the rule he already has.

And it is my tradition to fear God and to enjoy myself in peace, so you take the chieftancy, me i no want.

Jesus never said he was God Almighty. But false Christians said he is He gladly accepted what he is the mighty son of God.
None of his followers then and now accepted him as God. But the son of God Read Bible book of Matthew 16:16.
Jesus can't be God, when the Bible said he was created, He died, God Almighty never died or can be killed. He admitted of having limited knowledge. But God Almighty is all knowing. Jesus ate, drank, and sleep, far be it for the Almighty God to do that.
Don't mind about what so called professed christians are saying about Jesus Christ. They misrepresented God and Jesus.

Playing with fire... depends on the type of Christian you are. Holy Spirit filled one who hears God's voice in his ears and heart OR carnal one who hears his logic and rationale.

Christianity was the greatest poison which Europeans gave to Africans.
Look at these fools who think Jesus Christ all day all night whereas in Europe, most people are atheists.
Chieftaincy titles are a great honour, they represent the culture of your ancestors. You should honour that.

To the fool who said being Christian made him superior to a chief, I would like to ask him if Julius Caesar was inferior to his Christian slaves. You guys are just as fanatical as boko haram. No, a chief is superior to a Christian whom is not a chief. That is what being a chief is about, you are no longer a commoner if you are a chief.

Also since when is "being a Christian" about status in society ? What type of Christians are you guys ?
Also doesn't the Bible say that you shouldn't judge men, that only God can judge ? What types of Christians are you guys ? What you are following is not Christianity. It might be satanism disguised as Christianity.

If you mean to ask whether it is possible to follow Jesus Christ while serving another master, the answer is no.

● Culture and Tradition are masters to those who live under them, and as such are not to be found among those who belong to Jesus Christ. That is why one of the apostles said that in the Kingdom of God there are to be found neither Jews, Greek, gentile, male, female, white, black, etc., --- all of these are strongholds which should have no place in the lives of those who are of Jesus Christ----- but just one and that is Sons of God.
● those who are of Jesus Christ are expected by Him to abandon all affiliations in order to become worthy of Him. This included, family, friends, property, businesses, status/reputation, etc., - Matthew 10 vs 34 - 39.

Well, I just don't know about him but I have some godly men as role models yet they are not gods to me. If I had written same as he did, you'd possibly had said same thing.

Of course he won't dare say it! Your Bible writers and interpreters made it so! Na only few denominations like JW, and they of course have their own i.e. "Jesus is Angel Gabriel" which is also false!

Jesus was the Archangel Michael not Gabriel.

He is the one standing for the salvation of God's people {Daniel 12:1} He will resurrect the dead ones who are sleeping in death {Daniel 12:2} that's why the scriptures always say it's the Archangel's voice that will raise the dead! 1Thessalonians 4:16

I hope you prove this is false not by arguing but presenting a global family of peace loving worshipers {Isaiah 2:4} headed by the Prince of Peace today! Isaiah 9:6 smiley

Of course everything will be wrong if we are to concentrate on arguing based on what our different religions taught us but then present a global family of peace loving worshipers {Isaiah 2:4} because that's what God wants to see as proof before destroying evildoers who are ruining the earth {Revelations 11:18} under the control of Satan killing and getting killed! Revelations 6:3-4 smiley
