Anas09:
Still waiting to hear how you met Jesus and became his disciple. You may want to take your meds first before you venture into it.

No not so fast Anas, why are you in so much of a hurry, let's take things one step at a time before we would think of that stage.

So let me know what you've sacrificed or given for the sake of the Kingdom of God first before you qualify for that.

For I think it's just eye lashes and finger nails and maybe even your shadow, that why so little has been measured back to you that you're so spiritually substandard.

So here's your chance to prove me wrong, and show that when people as us the true disciples of Jesus, who have left everything for the sake of the Kingdom of God, are talking that you have a right to a whisper.

Your last chance Anas or you can forever hold hold your peace.

You are a new comer here so its obvious you don't know me. I claim nothing but a servant of Jesus.

But before we became whatever we are now in Christ, we knew who we were, and we shd be able to remember the encounters that got us convinced that Jesus Lord. Those encounters gave birth to the new us today.

I remember mine just like yesterday. I remember the day of the week, the month, the date, year, the message that got me hooked to Jesus. I remember who preached it. I remember the passage of the Bible which the pastor preached from and i remember what happened right from when i walked into the church. That was the day i met Jesus and became a Christian. If you want i will give you the details.

Now, i know you said you are not a Christian, but a True disciple of Jesus. No shakes. But, pls lets share our encounters.

How did you meet Jesus?

Apostle Peter remembered how and when he met the Lord. James and John too. Apostle Paul knew when he met the Lord.

Pls, True Disciple jesusjnr, How did you meet Jesus and became His true disciple?

I can't remember the exact day I repented and became a righteous christian from being a wicked christian, but I can remember everything else such as the venue, the person whose message led me to the decision, the very verse he quoted that led me to the decision, the fact that I didn't even come out for the alter call on that particular occasion as I'd done severally before then without really repenting maybe for a show, and the fact that it signalled a distinctive change in my life as most wicked things I used to do beforehand, i didn't do them anymore, etc.

But as significant as that day was Anas, the greatest day of my life was when I forsook everything to follow Jesus, and hence became a true disciple of His from the righteous christian that I used to be, and I believe that, that is the same for every true disciple of Jesus, for nothing comes close to that, not even the day of repentance.

So Anas you are right that i may not have been here for a long time, but I don't need too much time to be able to know who is who, hence I was able to know you are righteous christian from what I'd gotten from you so far.

So that's not in question and as you can see I did not lose sight of that in spite of the extent of your provocations to make me do that.

So I know that you are a righteous christian and you seem to give the impression that you love Jesus very much, but what I want is to know what you've sacrificed or given to prove your love for Him, that's all.

For Peter said he and all the other true disciples of Jesus had forsaken everything to follow Him, the same did Steven, Barnabas, Paul and every other true disciple of Jesus, inclusive of myself, for I have indeed forsaken and sacrificed my everything for the sake of Jesus.

So I want you to let me know the same thing, so that I would know if I can now begin to regard you as a true disciple of Jesus, for it would cost you your everything not just somethings to be that, and I know you won't lie to me Anas.

And this is important as well for me because if you have not given or sacrificed your everything for the sake of Jesus, it would be just about impossible for you to be able to understand my actions and speech.

For the extent of investment you make into a business determines how seriously you'd take it, so if i invests my all into a business and you invest maybe ten percent into the same business, it's expected that our attitude towards the same business would be different as I would take it as my life, while you would take it as ten percent of your life, so we could not possibly be on the wavelength because if it goes down, you'd feel hurt a bit because it would take a bit of you with it but you'll still be able to easily move on, but for me it takes me down with it as I had put my all into it.

Therefore this is far more important than the question of when i first met Jesus, Anas, for it's about how much I've given and sacrificed for His sake since I met Him, and it's everything.

So let me know the extent to what you've given to Jesus since you met Him so that we may be able to understand each other better moving forward.

Anas no way! I cannot let you get away so easily, because you were the one that came to me and was running your mouth all this while nonstop, but just a simple question and all of a sudden you forgot to show up.

I believe everyone here in Nairaland is interested to find out what you've given/sacrificed for the Jesus that you claim to love so much.

For all the true Jesus' disciples, Peter, John, James, Andrew, Philip, Bartholomew; Thomas, Matthew, James, Lebbaeus, Barsabas, Mary, Matthias, Stephen, Salome, Joanna, James, Mary, Philip, Prochorus, Nicanor, Timon, Parmenas, Martha, Nicolas, Barnabas, Simeon, Lucius, Manaen, Luke, Mark, Paul, etc., gave their all and sacrificed everything they had for the sake of the advancement of the kingdom of God on the earth.

And I said that I myself who also claims to be a true disciple of Jesus, whom you have been calling a disguised atheist all this while, has also done likewise and sacrificed my all for this same purpose, so please also declare your sacrifice, so that we'll also know how far.

If not it will be established that you are ashamed of what you've given to God, because you think that He deserved more than what you've given Him, for the extent to which you've given to God determines the value you have placed on Him.

So If I've answered the secondary question you've been pestering me with before now, don't you think I have earned the right for you to answer my primary question?

Trust me, i'm not gonna let you go, unless you answer me, for you started this so you are going to end it.

So over to you Anas!

Anas this is the second day in a row you've avoided me completely, since you started with your persistent onslaught on my person to discredit my efforts here.

I just hope it is not the weight of my question, that has got you really thinking, hey?

No scratch that last sentence, for I really hope that it has got you thinking if what you've given to God, is what He deserves.

For to me anything short of everything is not good enough for my God.

And moreover something you should understand is that unless you've committed as much as Jesus did to cause of God's Kingdom, there's no way you'd be able to empathize with Him to a certain extent, and see why it meant everything to Him.

That's why He wanted those that walked with Him, or those with whom He founded the church to do likewise, for He didn't want a situation when He'd be thinking about something, while they'll be thinking about something else, but He wanted them to be on the same page, to feel the same way He felt, because they had committed as much to the same course.

For that's why i'm able to feel His pulse to the extent that I do, because I have committed as much to the same course.

And that's why I can't afford to settle for crumbs as the likes of you do, because everything that those true disciples of Jesus had done, I have done also, so I must have the same result as they did or nothing else, for i'm not going to settle for less.

Maybe you can now see why i'm able to empathize with hardmirror to the extent that I do, because I know what it's like to give God so much or even everything, for when you do that you won't settle for crumbs.

My only grouse with him is that he should have waited, because delay is not denial. And believe me the church needs more people like him and less people like you as things stand, for it to be able to resume the position that it used to be when it first started, because it's only when God gets what He deserves from the church, that He would be able to give the church the kind of backing she warrants.

[s]So Anas I like you oh, because I've already seen that you love God to a certain degree, therefore even though you came with a lot of fireworks, i was yet glad you came, for despite that I thought that you already had the prerequisite which is a good heart, I believe you needed the hard saying of Jesus to help you get to the next level of faith, which is the highest.
[/s]

For don't think that you are just a woman oh and all that, for you'd be surprised that it's even your type that God loves the most, so that His strength can be made perfect in your weakness, which will bring Him even greater glory.

Remember Kathryn Kulman, yes, believe me I didn't know much about that woman while God was preparing me, but the first time I heard her speak she sounded just like me. So despite that out paths hadn't crossed before then, we yet had something in common, even giving God what He deserved which is everything, and hence we are able to speak the same language. And i believe that's is what she gave to God as such that distinguished her from the rest.

I also know Benny Hinn but despite being a man and having been inspired by her ministry, he doesn't scratch the surface of the spirit that she was.

So you can be likewise, but you have to give God what He deserves which is everything, otherwise you may be able have some impact, and be pleasing yourself and those many Christians that are pleased with you but you would never be as distinguished.

Though it not by force but by choice.

p.s. I take back the crossed for it's been proven otherwise

Yes Anas, come. Let Jesus make you a disciple.

True!
