@ Mabel, Truth is not simple at all for the bom boi Check this out [3] Jesus took Sin upon Himself - He did NOT become Sin!2 Corinthians 5:21 21 For our sake He made Christ[ virtually] to be sin Who knew no sin, so that in and through Him we might become[ a endued with, viewed as being in, and examples of] the righteousness of God[ what we ought to be, approved and acceptable and in right relationship with Him, by His goodness]. |

OLAADEGBU:The Word of God was and still is a cleansing agent, necessary for the instantaneous (at new birth- 1Pet 1:23, Eph 5:25-26, Titus 3:5) and continuous (by the Holy Spirit 1Thes 5:23, 2Cor 3:18) sanctification of the church in preparation for His appearing. OLAADEGBU:It is heretical to teach otherwise. Nobody said he was a sinner. He was born without sin and never sinned. However, He was made sin for us. There is a whole world of difference between being a sinner and being made sin. 2 Cor. 5:21 For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him. Col. 1:18 And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence. Question:1. When did He die? 2. When was he born? Psalm 2:7 I will declare the decree: the Lord hath said unto me, Thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee. Acts 13:33 God hath fulfilled the same unto us their children, in that he hath raised up Jesus again; as it is also written in the second psalm, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee. Jesus was the first to be born from among the dead, and we came right after Him. All the saints of old waited for this same Jesus- the perfecter of their salvation. And when He arose, they arose with Him, glory! Hebrews 11:39-40 And these all, having obtained a good report through faith, received not the promise: [40] God having provided some better thing for us, that they without us should not be made perfect. Hebrews 12:23 To the general assembly and church of the firstborn, which are written in heaven, and to God the Judge of all, and to the spirits of just men made perfect, I pray the Lord open your eyes. OLAADEGBU:Jesus is king of kings and Lord of Lords. He is the mighty man in battle; The Lord of Glory. He is cool and doesn't need your help. You cant take away His glory from Him even if your try. .OLAADEGBU: John 16:12-14 I have yet many things to say unto you, but ye cannot bear them now. [13] Howbeit when he, the Spirit of truth, is come, he will guide you into all truth: for he shall not speak of himself; but whatsoever he shall hear, that shall he speak: and he will shew you things to come. [14] He shall glorify me: for he shall receive of mine, and shall shew it unto you. During Jesus' earthly ministry, as much as His words were heavenly you must understand that those with whom he spoke and related with were sense-ruled men. They were not born again because it wasn't possible to be born again. His blood had not been shed, Jesus was not yet glorified and the Spirit had not been sent. The Spirit of truth has now come and some of those who first received Him (Peter James, John, Paul) have written and we believe those great Words and you are offended. . . Why? Are you trying to get us to believe that the scriptures contradict itself? Its by the same Spirit my brother. Rather than quarrel, get understanding. 2 Tim. 3:16 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: 2 Peter 1:21 For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but[b] holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.[/b] |

This article has been reposted here for those who believe that Jesus needed to be born again and that He didn't win souls during His earthly ministry. I have also discovered that these sects don't even believe that sinners need to repent from their sins and they believe that once saved they are forever saved. Happy reading. OLAADEGBU: |
| Re: When Did The Apostles Become Born Again? by Joagbaje(m): 12:51am On May 09, 2011 |
is daily manna now your bible? The issue is not about Jesus winning soulsNIn his earthly ministry, he reconciled man to God by his death dear. He must get to the cross first. John 12:32-33 32 And I, if I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me. 33 This he said, signifying what death he should die. if men could be born again before jesus died to reconcile man to God, what is the necesity of the shedding of his blood?. what do you understand by BORN again in the first place. any sect that will teach that a man can be born again without the blood of jesus christ is a sect we should be careful about. John 6:51 . . .and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world. |

Joagbaje:The sect that will identify and associate itself with this sect in the link below is what we should be careful about. Show me your friend and I will tell you who you are. www.nairaland.com/attachments/11760028_tbjoshuaallah_jpeg558b3dd010d6badfe9f8ee15acaa656a http://www.deceptioninthechurch.com/tbjoshua.html |

^^^^ Another attempt to change the topic,since you're stuck in error. 1 Peter 4:15 15 But let none of you suffer as . . busybody in other men's matters. Well, Since Satan has given you GBEBOORUN in other people's matter. This link might interest your hypocrisy for your GBEBOORUN ministry https://www.nairaland.com/nigeria/topic-620124.0.html |

Joagbaje: Na wao. This could have made the front page if it had anything to do (even remotely) with CE or Pst Chris. |
| Re: When Did The Apostles Become Born Again? by Joagbaje(m): 12:22pm On May 09, 2011 |
donnie:Well , I'm not really proud of that link .We are still one body. I'm not into these nonsense gossip they do. I'm just fed up with the hypocrisy of these religious guys who keep log in their eyes and be pointing to pebble in the eye of another. What has a topic on salvation got to do with condemnation of others. Can they just be discipline to face topic instead of attacking others. |
| Re: When Did The Apostles Become Born Again? by donnie(op): 12:26pm On May 09, 2011 |
Joagbaje:I know my brother. . . I was actually shocked at first when i saw your response. There are many of those stories around but we should rather stick with what brings glory to His name. BTW hw u dey? |

Joagbaje: Joagbaje: Joagbaje:Who is the hypocrite here? Was it not you that started getting personal mentioning my church and accusing us of being hypocritical? What has that got to do with the subject at hand? And you are now accusing me and my church of being hypocritical and busybodies in other men's matters. The link you referred to is another example of your hypocrisy, the fact that a member who was alleged to be a "pastor" in deeper Life engaged in the works of darkness does not mean that I or the church approves of it, what we are addressing here are the fundamental teachings being taught and this is what will determine what you believe. You implied that we are a sect and I responded by posting a link that shows you how your "church" is associated with a sect that believes that Islam and Christianity are one and the same as they quoted some qur'anic verses on their posters. So, if you are looking for a sect you should be able to recognise one when you see one, or is your "church" not associated with them? That is not other men's matters it is called exposing and reproving the work of darkness, it's called exposing the unfruitful work of darkness as you can see in the cartoon below. Once again look at the link below and tell me whether you are not birds of the same feathers. www.nairaland.com/attachments/11760028_tbjoshuaallah_jpeg558b3dd010d6badfe9f8ee15acaa656a http://www.deceptioninthechurch.com/tbjoshua.html

OLAADEGBU:I'm not the one that started getting personal,But you. You keep labelling us as a sect. I have also discovered that these sects don't even believe that sinners need to repent from their sins and they believe that once saved they are forever saved. Happy readingIt is not the first time you do these attacks. Tb joshua may have made his mistakes in the past doctrinally . Many churches have, just as you are making your own mistake with apostolic salvation . The fact that God calls a man doesn't mean he will automatically know scriptures . You must study to know or be taught to know. Many Ministers today still make mistakes and will still make mistakes if they dont study. Tb joshua was gifted with healing and prophecy. Most prophets are not teachers neither scholars . If a man build ministry on gifts only , he will enter error. You yourself gave a link of ministers that couldn't define salvation properly. Tb Joshua needed good people to help him straightens things out. Not for them to look for his destruction. Anybody can make a mistake. But God sees a man's heart. Since He invited pastor chris and they met, things around him began to change. Doctrinally and otherwise . Thats what the bible wants us to do. Redeem church was once a White garment church , but the founder who was gifted also in healings and prophecy received help from more enlightened people. Like pastor adeboye and others They left the old testament doctrine. And move to perfection. Galatians 6:1 1 Brethren, if a man be overtaken in a fault, ye which are spiritual, restore such an one in the spirit of meekness; considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted. |

@ Jo agbaje Word ![]() @ Olaadegbu I used to love reading your posts. All those your fantastic illustrations of biblical truths such as, personal salvation, the Lordship of Jesus, christian living, End times and so on. These days I dont know what to think anymore. It is like you are becoming bored with being an inspiration and a positive influence. You now crave to belong in the class of Kunleosob, nuclearboy etc who are neither here nor there. If you investigate, you'll find that they are not grounded in the truth. They do not belong to any church. . . neither are they submitted to any pastor or spiritual authority. They do not know the Lord. Do not be carried away by their error. Remember your first love, Continue the good work that you are doing and shun carnality. |
| Re: When Did The Apostles Become Born Again? by nuclearboy(m): 11:18pm On May 09, 2011 |
^^ Submission to Christ, not to a vain bleached hair-dresser swivel-hipped fraudster Trust in God, not endless bleating about "dominion" whist manipulating the poor to eat A life of discipline, not noisy lies and postulations whist indulging in wanton sin Meanwhile, Azi-baby and mab-cobra are goodluck's cousins according to "pastor" Jo - what of you? I'm sure you are Clifford Orji's twin |
| Re: When Did The Apostles Become Born Again? by Ndipe(m): 11:52pm On May 09, 2011 |
This is my first time of seeing a picture of TB Joshua aligning Christianity (the 'effigy' of Jesus Christ on the cross) along with a quranic inscription that proclaims the deity of allah? Quite shocking. Jojogabe, is that where you worship? |
| Re: When Did The Apostles Become Born Again? by OLAADEGBU(m): 12:23am On May 10, 2011 |
Joagbaje:I challenge you to show us where I first personally attacked you or your church. If I attacked anything at all it will be the heretical teachings that are spread from the pit of hell. Joagbaje:What I do is to throw a stick into a pack of wolves, it is the ones who yelps that got hit. If you got hit then know that it is time for you to consider your ways and repent. Joagbaje:What you call "mistakes" are fundamental issues that even young converts should now. Can you point out where he corrected these doctrinal "mistakes" considering the many souls that have ended up in hell as a result of these doctrines? Joagbaje:If I attack your errors of salvation that says sinners don't need to repent, that Christ's apostles weren't saved, that you know better than the apostles, or even Jesus Christ, that Jesus needed to be born again you should not think that I am attacking your person, if you really want to save yourself and others who listen to your errors you will examine your doctrines to see whether they are from the pit of hell. Joagbaje:Let me get personal here and I will be starting with my church. I met a taxi man in London that I shared the gospel with. He narrated to me how he used to be a zonal leader in my church in Nigeria but was disciplined for having an affair with one of the sisters. He was relieved of his duties in the church and was mandated to be sitting at the front row in the church during every sermon. He could not handle the humiliation and then promptly left the country for the U.K with the sister whom he eventually married. He went from one church to the other occupying himself playing musical instruments until he ended up at the CCC. Immediately they made him a leader of some sorts and he even told me that they were having evangelical outreaches. He tried to convince me that he was doing the work of God there and that he needed not to be restored. Some years later I saw him in one of the Christian television programmes praying and when I met him afterwards he told me that he had now been truly restored back to the Lord and that he has now started his own pentecostal church. He told me how he got ordained in the RCCG and went to a bible college in the U.S of A. I asked him why he left the CCC. He retorted that his eyes became clear and he began to smell the coffee when his wife got impregnated by a member of the choir (the drummer boy), that was the time he began to seek the face of the Lord in genuine repentance and got restored. Why am I relating this story? The man in his backslidden state knew the doctrines of the Bible and he used this to bring his parish up to date scripturally, they were even going on evangelical missions, but that did not open his eyes to the lies of the devil nor did it change to church that he tried to cosmetically decorate. This man was still maintaining that he was doctrinally sound until the scales fell off his eyes. The fact that you can be saying that TBJ is gifted with healing and prophecy and giving excuses for his teachings tells me that you are birds of the same feather and it is my prayer that the Lord who delivered this man in my story will deliver all of you who are sincere but sincerely wrong. Joagbaje:When your partner in ministry corrects those doctrinal "mistakes" that is leading and has led many to their eternal damnation then we will be able to say that he has received "help from enlightened people." Do you think that the devil who tempted the Lord Jesus Christ does not know scriptures? He knows it much than you but he has always succeeded in twisting them suit his own diabolical lies that are from the pit of hell. |

Ndipe:I don't think these guys you are referring to know the gravity of what is implied in that picture because if they know any better they wouldn't be sweeping this doctrine of satan under the carpet. For them to be claiming that the qur'anic Allah and the RCC crucifix is the God that they are worshipping goes a long way in understanding why these people talk they way they talk. |
| Re: When Did The Apostles Become Born Again? by Joagbaje(m): 1:20am On May 10, 2011 |
Ndipe:Ask your friend how many years ago that picture was taken. Maybe 20 years ago. Spirituality is not it the outward pretence. It is the devil that dwells on a man's past. Does tb Joshua still believe that jehovah is allah till now? . Knowledge increase everyday . How can a man be digging a past that God has forgotten? We still have many christian today that still believe God is Allah. I thought so too until i read a book ." Who is this Allah?". Because a man made an inscription on the wall many years ago, we won't let him rest? Is the inscritption still there? This action is typical of these religious people. Even when God forgives a man of an error , a religious man will not let go. How can a spiritual chritian be digging an old picture ? I hope he won't dig up in people commit in their childhood days? |
| Re: When Did The Apostles Become Born Again? by Joagbaje(m): 1:27am On May 10, 2011 |
If I attack your errors of salvation that says sinners don't need to repent,What Sinners need is a brand new life and nature dude. The new life supplants the old. that Christ's apostles weren't saved, that you know better than the apostles, or even Jesus Christ, that Jesus needed to be born again you should not think that I am attacking your person,Keep twisting my posts,shey it makes you feel good. You ought to rather humble yourself to admit your mistakes. No man could be born again without the shedding of the blood of Jesus we became reconciled to God through his death. Romans 6:5-6 5 If we have been united with him like this in his death, we will certainly also be united with him in his resurrection. 6 For we know that our old self was crucified with him so that the body of sin might be done away with, that we should no longer be slaves to sin – I don't want to believe this error of yours is what your pastor teaches. I have given many references that you need to humble yourself to study. if you really want to save yourself and others who listen to your errors you will examine your doctrines to see whether they are from the pit of hell.I thank God for the doctrinal amendment the holyghost has done in you guys so far. I don't need to argue much . We pray, he knocks out everything that is not of him. Plus your manipulative ,carnal and judgemental spirit which people like you often display . |

Replying jo is like wasting one's time. The same who claimed to know scriptures is the same Jo who said it is wrong to pray through Jesus. And when rebuked and corrected left the thread in shame, even his co proponent, newmi could not disagree with his mentor(oyaks) in public when subjected to the strictest proof by Enigma. Who knows how many tens of thousands this statement (it is wrong to pray through Jesus) has led astray? |

Back to topic. When did the apostles get born again. Answer: when Jesus resurrected and breathed upon them giving them authority to forgive sin. John 20:20-23 20 And when he had so said, he shewed unto them [his] hands and his side. Then were the disciples glad, when they saw the Lord. 21 Then said Jesus to them again, Peace [be] unto you: as [my] Father hath sent me, even so send I you. 22 And when he had said this, he breathed on [them], and saith unto them, Receive ye the Holy Ghost: 23 Whose soever sins ye remit, they are remitted unto them; [and] whose soever [sins] ye retain, they are retained. |

Soon all will be made open to all and you will slink away like your father satan has always done. You only keep showing that your only purpose is support for the head of your team here and that you have no mind or personal thought process. So I'm not much bothered by your asinine outburst - low intellect will always manifest. @Ndipe: Thank you for your observation.
