In the recent time, it is hard to know who to believe. Different respected pastors will tell you two different things. Haba! Kilode.

One pastor will tell you there is nothing wrong in celebrating xmas, another will tell you its not biblical yet we all claim to be serving and branch of one living God.

Christians are the enemy of Christians and not Muslims to Christians. In my church, opening of hair by women is not encourage and preach against because the bible gave clear instruction about women covering their hairs. Some pastors will tell you know.

The Muslims, most especially the northern part does not also support opening of hairs by women. Now tell me how a christian who misinterpret the bible ( I mean a christian that opens her hair ) preach to a muslim sister, how will she listen. Sometimes, these are the issues that cause religions intolerance most especially in the northern part.

Christians, please a life that worth preaching of. I'm a christian but my write is not bias. Its just an observation.

Back to my question. Who is the our enemy?

are you so mumu that you can't make up your own mind yourself?

you don't have to insult. Its an open question and not the matter of making of my own choice. Learn how to talk.

SCIENTOLOGY is part of my Learning. L. RON HUBBARD taught that in order to solve a Problem permanently, we have to confront the SOURCE of that Problem. Problems persist because they are not addressed at their BEGINNING. There is SOMETHING BASIC that the person with the "Persistent Problem" is not confronting.

IN YOUR CASE, YOU WERE NEVER TAUGHT, OR ELSE YOU FORGOT YOU WERE TAUGHT, WHAT "CHRISTIANITY" MEANS, SND WHAT A "CHRISTIAN" IS.

[color=silver].[/color] ACTS 11:26.

26. And it came to pass,
that a whole year,
they assembled themselves
with the Church,
and taught much people.
And the Disciples were called "CHRISTIANS"
first at Antioch.

YOU DO NOT KNOW, OR ELSE HAVE REJECTED THE KNOWLEDGE, THAT ONLY A DISCIPLE OF YAHSHUA IS A CHRISTIAN.

What, then, is a Disciple of Yahshua?

[color=silver].[/color] JOHN 8:30-32.

30. As he spake these Words,
many believed on him.
31. Then said Jesus to those Jews
which believed on him,
"If ye continue in my Word,
(then) are ye my Disciples indeed;
32. "And ye shall know The Truth,
and The Truth shall make you Free."

YOU DO NOT KNOW, OR ELSE YOU HAVE REJECTED THE KNOWLEDGE, THAT ONLY THOSE WHO CONTINUE IN THE WORD OF YAHSHUA ARE HIS DISCIPLES. This is THE ONLY WAY to KNOW THE TRUTH, and be MADE FREE.

[color=silver].[/color] JOHN 15:1-8.

"I AM The True Vine,
and my Father is The Husbandman.
2. "Every branch in me
that beareth not fruit
He taketh away:
and every branch
that beareth fruit,
He purgeth it,
that it may bring forth
more fruit.
3. "Now ye are clean
through the Word
Which I have spoken unto you.
4. "Abide in me, and I in you.
As the branch cannot
bear fruit of itself,
except it abide in the vine;
no more can ye,
except ye abide in me.
5. "I am the Vine,
ye are the Branches:

'HE THAT ABIDETH IN ME
AND I IN HIM,
THE SAME BRINGETH FORTH
MUCH FRUIT:'

for without me ye can do Nothing.
6. "If a man abide not in me,
he is cast forth as a branch,
and is withered;
and men gather them,
and cast them into the Fire,
and they are burned.
7. "If ye abide in me,
and my Words abide in you,
ye shall ask what ye will,
and it shall be done unto you.
8. "Herein is my Father Glorified,
'That ye bear much fruit;'
so shall ye be my Disciples."

YOU DO NOT KNOW, OR ELSE YOU HAVE REJECTED THE KNOWLEDGE, THAT ONLY THOSE WHO ABIDE IN YAHSHUA ARE HIS DISCIPLES.

One pastor will tell you there is nothing wrong in celebrating xmas, another will tell you its not biblical yet we all claim to be serving and branch of one living God.

[color=silver].[/color]. LUKE 16:1-15.

AND he said also unto his Disciples,

"There was a certain rich man,
which had a steward;
and the same was accused unto him
that he had wasted his goods.
2. "And he called him, and said unto him,

'HOW IS IT THAT
I HEAR THIS OF THEE?
GIVE AN ACCOUNT
OF THY STEWARDSHIP;
FOR THOU MAYEST BE
NO LONGER STEWARD.'

3. "Then the steward said within himself,

'WHAT SHALL I DO?
FOR MY LORD TAKETH AWAY FROM ME
THE STEWARDSHIP:
I CANNOT DIG,
TO BEG I AM ASHAMED.
4. 'I AM RESOLVED WHAT TO DO,
THAT, WHEN I AM
PUT OUT OF THE STEWARDSHIP,
THEY MAY RECEIVE ME
INTO THEIR HOUSES.'

5. "So he called every one
of his lord's debtors unto him,
and said unto the first,

'HOW MUCH OWEST THOU UNTO MY LORD?'

6. "And he said,

'AN HUNDRED MEASURES OF OIL.'

And he said unto him,

'TAKE THY BILL,
AND SIT DOWN QUICKLY,
AND WRITE FIFTY.'

7. "Then said he to another,

'AND HOW MUCH OWEST THOU?'

And he said,

'AN HUNDRED MEASURES OF WHEAT.'

And he said unto him,

'TAKE THY BILL,
AND WRITE FOURSCORE.'

8. "And the lord commended the unjust steward,
because he had done wisely:
for the Children of this World
are in their Generation
wiser than the Children of Light.
9. "And I say unto you,

'MAKE TO YOURSELVES FRIENDS
OF THE MAMMON
OF UNRIGHTEOUSNESS;
THAT, WHEN YE FAIL,
THEY MAY RECIEVE YOU
INTO EVERLASTING HABITATIONS.'

10. "He that is Faithful
in that which is Least
is Faithful also in Much:
and he that is Unjust in the Least
is Unjust also in Much.
11. "If therefore ye have not been
Faithful in the Unrighteous Mammon,
who will commit to your trust
The True Riches?
12. "And if ye have not
been Faithful
in that which is
another man's,
who shall give you
that which is your own?
13. "No Servant can
serve two Masters:
for either he will hate the one,
and love the other;
or else he will hold to the one,
and despise the other.
Ye cannot serve God and Mammon."

14. And the Pharisees also,
who were Covetous,
heard all these things,
and they derided him.
15. And he said unto them,

"Ye are they
which justify yourselves
before Men;
but God knoweth
your hearts:
for that which is
Highly Esteemed amongst Men
is Abomination in The Sight of God."

YAHSHUA WARNED THAT THE FAILED SERVANTS OF GOD HAVE THE OPTION OF EARNING A LIVING BY FRAUDULENTLY PARDONING GOD'S DEBTORS.

For example, the FAILED SERVANT PAUL excused HIS followers from loving those Sisters who expose their hair.

YAHSHUA Commanded us to LOVE OUR ENEMIES- which therefore means that we, if we follow HIM, must love EVERYBODY.

This is a BURDEN and a DEBT- but PAUL excuses HIS followed from bearing it, by creating a DIVISION against Sisters who expose their hair, and those who support them.

Christians are the enemy of Christians and not Muslims to Christians.

[color=silver].[/color] ]MATTHEW 12:30.

30. "He that is not with me is against me;
and he that gathereth not with me
scattereth abroad."

[color=silver].[/color] ]LUKE 9:49-50.

49. And John answered and said,
"Master, we saw one
Casting out Devils in thy Name;
and we forbad him,
because he followeth not with us."
50. And Jesus said unto him,
"Forbid him not:
for he that is not against us
is for us.

YAHSHUA SPECIFICALLY DEFINED WHO THE ENEMIES OF HIS DISCIPLES ARE.

You reject that definition, because you were never YAHSHUA'S Disciple, but someone else's.

In my church, opening of hair by women is not encourage and preach against because the bible gave clear instruction about women covering their hairs.

Just because something is in "THE BIBLE," that does not mean that it is true, nor that it has to be regarded or obeyed.

PAUL (THE AUTHOR OF THAT SILLY DOCTRINE,) HAS NO AUTHORITY WHATSOEVER.

Some pastors will tell you know.

This sentence makes no grammatical sense.

The Muslims, most especially the northern part does not also support opening of hairs by women. Now tell me how a christian who misinterpret the bible ( I mean a christian that opens her hair ) preach to a muslim sister, how will she listen. Sometimes, these are the issues that cause religions intolerance most especially in the northern part.

WE ARE COMMANDED TO PREACH THE SAME GOSPEL YAHSHUA PREACHED- NOT SOME MADE-UP AFTERTHOUGHT BY UNAUTHORIZED TEACHERS.

Christians, please a life that worth preaching of. I'm a christian but my write is not bias. Its just an observation.

Back to my question. Who is the our enemy?

YOU ARE THE ENEMY.

You do not cite a single Teaching of Yahshua to support your dictates.

You do not even state what sort of "Christian" you term yourself to be.

This is consistent with those who just "SOW DISCORD AMONG BRETHREN."

There is no Division in the body of Christ.
God is a Spirit , and they that worship him , worship in spirit and in truth. There can't be division if that worship is truly in the spirit of the body of Christ.

The reason is simply mans sinful nature.
