Kpele. Your organisation spoke againt other churches. Allow others speak against yours.

And you calling it lies wont change anything. Just because you think the sky is red doesnt change the fact that it is blue. wink

Biblical Proof Jesus Visited The Poor

Matthew 8:14-15 (KJV)

And when Jesus was come into Peter's house, he saw his wife's mother laid, and sick of a fever.
And he touched her hand, and the fever left her: and she arose, and ministered unto them.


So let no servant of mammon lie to you that Jesus never visited the poor, because according to the Bible Jesus didn't only visit the poor but the first ever person's house Jesus visited during the course of His ministry on Earth, was that of a poor fisherman (who could toil all night without catching any fish. Luke 5:5) called Simon Peter.

God bless.
Stop deceiving yourself. I don't support David Ibiyomie on what he said, but Jesus Christ visiting Peter and seeing his mother-inlaw isn't a sign that Peter was a poor man.
Educationally Peter maybe poor, materially, being a professional Fisher man at that time, having a house,not a rented apartment, means he wasn't poor.

Go and convince this man:

APOPTOSIS:
Jehovah's Witness is operating at a different level.
They have been steadfast, resolute and committed.
I hold no grudge against them. They downplay commercialization of churches.
They entertain persecutions a lot, in fact more than several Christian bodies.
Seems in their church everyone is at same level irrespective of your degree, financial acquaintance and contacts.
And it seems they obey the Bible the most:
-They hardly disturb neighbors during prayers.
-They frown at intimidation and flamboyant lifestyles.
-They ensure financial gifts are covered and never displeased at whatever they recieve.
-Their members would make good politicians but they frown at politics
I respect them. I judge based on actions and not what I'm told

see bro, u need to learn how to troll someone with resonable statements. u cant use the above to troll or defend your organisation because it doesnt change the facts. even though no pedophile witness in nigeria has been caught, it doesnt chnage the fact that your organisation has pedophile problems.

troll back with something smarter like, yes, we have that problem and we are wirking on it unlike you guys who are proud pedophiles marrying underage girls....

be smarter in your reply... and look for news pics too.

You don't understand what is happening jàre! smiley

So you expect Jesus and his disciples to start trolling people who claims Jesus and his followers are all betrayers shey?

Ọmọ that's not smart enough all a wise person will ask is:

Do you have this people in your own neighborhood?
Answer: YES, many of them!

So how many have you caught in your neighborhood practicing pedophilia?
Answer: None!

That's enough for wise people! Exodus 23:1-2 smiley

Jesus' disciples weren't poor they chose to be so after they met Jesus but it's not all those who met him that agreed to do the same! Luke 18:18-23
The Bible you quoted doesn't mention about Jesus DISCIPLES being rich or poor, it mentioned about a certain ruler.

The only rich disciple amongst the 12 BEFORE following Christ was Mathew the tax collector. Others were poor & died poor.

Please please please

YOU said Jesus disciples weren't poor, let's stick to it. The rich ruler wasn't amongst Jesus disciples neither was they room to add another number aside the 12 disciples within the place you mentioned in the Bible. You talked about the disciples not being rich but the rich ruler whom you quoted a Bible reference wasn't amongst the 12, I rephrase.

Like I said, only Matthew was rich BEFORE following Jesus. Afterwards, he became poor.

The Bible verse you mentioned described about how the rich will find it difficult to make heaven because they highly glorify themselves without meekness/humility which is exactly that pastor preached. No meekness & humility in what he preached about jesus not associating with the poor.

Guy what happened to their riches is the same thing Jesus demanded from that young ruler so they were all rich until they left everything behind to follow Jesus! Matthew 19:27

Girl, read the verse 29 of same Matthew 19.

Leaving everything doesn't necessarily mean Riches or wealth. Peter left fishing & his wife Eden to follow Christ, Andrew who is Peter's brother left fishing also, James the great & John left fishing & family/parents (Zebedee & wife) to follow Christ, Simon the Zealot left rebellious brotherhood of murderers to follow Christ, Matthew left riches to follow Christ, Thad left stone craft building to follow Christ, James the Little left singing in the temple as a chorister to follow Christ, Judas left being an assistant to a business man to follow Christ, etc

Mind you, these fishermen and other professions above were not rich nor wealthy in the businesses nor professions.

Again, Matthew was only the rich BEFORE following Christ, others were poor and died poor AFTER meeting Christ including Matthew

If you must know nobody can become a partaker with Jesus as heavenly corulers who must not make sacrifices so if you don't have anything to loose materially speaking you can't become a coruler with Christ Jesus.
That's the first sacrifice anyone needs to make.
And as for their families they didn't leave them like that rather their families continue with the family business just as Jesus left the family craft for James his brother too not that they trash their families o! smiley

The sick people Jesus prayed and healed were poor...
the blind man that was begging in the streets for.money and when Jesus passed by he called Jesus for healing ...and Jesus prayed and healed him of his blindness..the blind man was poor..
Even the woman with the issues of blood for 12 years was poor and healed by Jesus

For families and workers to do whatever they will with these things of the world.

Remember Jesus was like the first born child of Joseph so he taught the child all he needs to know about carpentry. Matthew 13:55
It seems Joseph died during Jesus' teens so Jesus began working as a carpenter and he taught his first brother James the job too. Mark 6:3
By the time Jesus got baptized and started his ministry he never returned home again so James took over the family craft to feed the family.
Later Mary and her other sons (James, Joseph Jr, Simon and Judas) began searching for Jesus as they thought he has run mad. Mark 3:21
So the businesses they left behind was for whoever wish to take over whether families, friends or colleagues they don't care after following Jesus who promised they will get families throughout the earth and something better to do with their time which is the ministry! Mark 10:30
