anochuko01:I totally understand you bro. The miracle of salvation. I think why people even doubt their salvation is because they preach salvation without repentance. The more you know Jesus the only thing you become afraid of is sin. Not the devil, not death, not anything under heaven. Thanks a lot for your testimony, now I know there are a lot of people who love Jesus in Nigeria. Strange thing is that when you are in bondage to sin, you may only find hypocrites as christians that may further lead you away from God. The message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us being saved it is the power of God(1 Cor 1:18) The mind that is set on the flesh is hostile to God, for it does not submit to God's law; indeed it cannot. Those who are in the flesh cannot please God'(Rom 8:7- We can only tell them the truth, we cannot convince them, it is beyond us. It is the Holy Spirit that convicts them in the hearts of sin to know how guilty they are before the Holy God. Then they'll see the need for repentance and to accept Christ. Remain a blessing and I pray the Lord to uphold you in faith in Him. 1 Like |

moski5: You are muddling this all up. Being described as a Christian does not mean you are not a Son. Sonship is your identity but Christianity is your description. You can be a Son to your father yet you do not act or think like your father. Spiritually speaking, for you to be called a Son you must have proof of your Sonship which is the Spirit of Christ and the Fruits (manifestation). This then makes you like Christ but also a Son. Both are the same thing. The life of Christ by His spirit is your seal of Sonship otherwise anyone would claim to be a Son of God via pretense. Unbelievers called them Christians based on the knowledge they had of Christ and they knew that these ones were JUST LIKE CHRIST...is there a greater description or a greater approval from the world than this?

gensteejay:You claim according to the quran that Jesus was not crucified.What proof is there that the quran's position is the authentic one?What if another religion has its own position? It was already established that Jesus was crucified before Muhammed was born.The message of denial in the quran is to fulfil a purpose.You must have heard of the anti-christ. There is the Jesus Who came to earth,died and resurrected.There is the Jesus the quran formed an opinion on.They are not the same. 1 Like |

Re: From Atheism To Jesus: My Testimony by Nobody: 8:46am On Aug 18, 2016 |
Thanks for the compliment. I will start by saying marriage is ordained by God. God loves marriage and married people. The answer to your questions are in scriptures. A good start is to read 1 Cor 7 to understand what love in marriage is about. Can I ask if you are born again? Do you have a relationship with Jesus? Do you live for Him (Phil 1:20) I am not married myself, but in my church, we are advised to love Jesus more than we love our wives. 'The Jesus triangle' always a happy home. I will say with all conviction that I love Jesus and I know what love is, and there is no beauty and brain in a woman without God that would make me give all this up. So I will also look out for a girl that loves Jesus probably more than I do. The thing about experiencing Jesus is that you instantly know what is wrong even without knowing everything in the Bible. Concerning your questions, I would like to remind you that God knows your heart and the motive of the questions you ask. We should always remind ourselves of that. That being said, Best birth control method? I have no idea about that maybe you should ask other married christians. For me I usually do a search on the internet and with preference to what John Piper on desiringgod.org would say about areas I have little to no understanding. I would want to believe what you do in your marriage should be between you and your spouse, who am I or anyone to tell you what is right or wrong when it is done in love? Sex during fasting? That should be between you your spouse and God. I don't have all the answers but I understand fasting to be deprivation of the flesh. It is emphasising to your flesh that your spirit is in control. I would keep my mind on spiritual things whenever I am on a fast. Sex isn't sin. Premarital and extramarital sex are. The bible instructs men to love their wives as Christ loves His church that He gave His life up for. This is a powerful statement and if you have experienced the love of God, you understand true nature of love and I believe many of the answers you seek would be instinctive. Also, you need to talk to God and read the scriptures often, the more you do, the more you think and behave like Christ only by His Spirit. But it starts with repentance, accepting Christ and living for God. Make God's word the standard for your life and marital life all in the NT. One more thing, don't heavily rely on answers I or anyone may give, go to scriptures. But it is wise get counsel from people who have long been living for Jesus but never above what's in the Word. vickylala239: 2 Likes |

Re: From Atheism To Jesus: My Testimony by thorpido(m): 9:22am On Aug 18, 2016 |
vickylala239:If I may answer your questions; The best birth control as a married couple will depend on your body and your sexual regimen/child spacing.One particular method may not work for everyone.As long as it is not abortion,whatever method that prevents conception is allowed. MouthAction depends on you as a couple.If it is done in love and mutual agreement,it is allowed as a couple.I personally just feel there are areas that one should not go e.g anal sex On fasting,when you decide to fast,it means you have decided to deny your body so your spirit can be tuned to God.At that period,sex also is denied.Now this is how it works;if you decide you want to fast from 6am to 6pm,it means you can't have sex between that period of time.Outside of your fasting period,if your partner desires it,you should not deny him or her. 1 Like |

[quote author=solite3 post=48571513]All thanks to the Lord I urge my brethren in Christ to desist from meaningless argument but instead try as much as possible to direct them to the Lord. Christianity rest solely on the power of the cross, remember we are serving a living saviour. Pray for the lost even if it is just few minutes a day. God bless you. One thing I have discovered in reaching out to the lost is that you cannot win any body to christ by arguing with them or by eloquence. We can do well by praying them through.It is only by prayer that we can break the bands of the wicked on any unsaved soul.1cor2:12-14. |

OgundeleT: Are you the grand patron of Atheism? What makes you say the OP was not an Atheist? Care to share your own story so we can clearly tell you that you are not an Atheist and is only going through the motions? You just jumpt and speak for the sake of being heard. If to you he was not an Atheist how does that change his testimony? If he had said he was a Christian who became an Atheist would you have said he was never a Christian?

TheSixthSense: Money is never the reason why anyone will not make heaven rather it is the live of money.. Mind you love is different from like... Love is expressed by giving according to John 3:16 It is the love.. Giving of our being to money that makes going or making heaven harder not being wealthy... the body of Christ was released to a rich disciple. God is praised for loving the prosperity of his people... He say it is through prosperity that Zionsville will be spread abroad... . Money never made Solomon to lose heaven or Abraham and job that became blessed in all thing. Church members believes that their teaching is superior because they have not told that no church is anointed to preach the Bible.. God calls for specifics.. A church is anointed for one of the many minds of God.. Plans or purpose .. Salvation, Holiness, prosperity, healing, deliverance etc Every ministry receives the teaching from the same Bible according to their calling.. . You can't preach healing more than the ministry that has been called to focus on it. That is why the very passage that gave somebody a testimony seems meaningless to another. If the earth is the lord's and the fullness thereof then it will be blasphemy for anyone to reckon that God put the wealth of this world so some won't make heaven. There is no church that doesn't preach about holiness as the condition for our walking upon our high places on the earth if you did not hear it is because you already had a judgemental mindset before visiting the church. Holiness is a proof of the fear of God and it is the fear that confers 1 cor 2:9 on Christians not sons of Devils T He died so. We can reign here on the earth as king and priest unto our God..... In other words we have two mission on the earth.. To preach the resurrected Christ as well as be the head of thing here on the earth... Thr power of heaven is for the purpose of of the earth.. it is not needed in heaven... If heaven is paved with gold and mansions then God don't abhor wealth The power to make wealth is not for sinners.. But for sons of God.. Deut 8:18 Glory to glory wishes |

TheSixthSense:Now, you claim you are happier with But I noticed you made no mention of a definite proof. Yes, you say Experience trumps argument and I agree. You then enjoin all atheists to "truly search" But will you be interested to know that most Nl atheist are actually open to new evidences That they usually come from deeply religious backgrounds and 'spiritual ' institutions? That they have searched height and depth, up and down for evidences only to find disappointments There are many recorded cases of religious warriors here turning agnostic here on NL. While their stories are different, one thing unites it. They searched for proof and didn't find any. Perhaps experience is the best way. But there are 7billion people on Earth right now. If God showed himself to each, it'll take A while. But perhaps I'm wrong though. Perhaps the almighty will reveal himself in the full course of time. But until then I'll be living my life, doing the little good I can and fully taking responsibility for my actions. And when I die, I hope to do so with a smile on my face knowing I've done the best I could, with no expectation of a reward. |
