I am currently training to be a pastor. Please read below: In the bible JESUS CHRIST said that the least in the kingdom of GOD was greater than john the baptist. Luke7:28 By least in GOD's kingdom,HE was referring to HIMSELF. What JESUS CHRIST was saying was that although no one was greater than john, HE(JESUS CHRIST) was the only one on earth who was greater than john. You know JESUS CHRIST always takes the 2 extremes in every thing. HE is the greatest and the least in the kingdom of GOD. HE is the first and the last. If you take first in an exams,you cannot also take last at the same time. But not with JESUS. HE is both the first and the last. HE is the beginning and the end. HE is the beginning and the beginning-less. HE is the end and the endless. HE is the bright star and the morning star. HE is the one who sits on the throne(which indicates greatness) and HE is the lamb that was slain(showing leastness).Rev6:16 HE is both GOD and man. Everything we are,we are actually in between HIM, HE always takes the best and the worst. HE is both the greatest in the universe and the least in the universe. Remember all things were created by HIM and for HIM. ............................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................ In the bible school which I am currently studying to become a pastor, we have been taught that JESUS CHRIST is the following viz: HE is the King HE is the Servant HE is a Man HE is Divine/GOD. We have been taught that the book of Matthew portrays JESUS CHRIST as the KING and HIS representation in the book of Ezekiel/Revelation is the face of a lion. We have been taught that the book of Mark portrays JESUS CHRIST as the SERVANT and HIS representation in the book of Ezekiel/Revelation is the face of an ox. We have been taught that the book of Luke portrays JESUS CHRIST as a MAN and HIS representation in the book of Ezekiel/Revelation is the face of a man. We have been taught that the book of John portrays JESUS CHRIST as GOD/DIVINE and HIS representation in the book of Ezekiel/Revelation is the face of an eagle. GOD is the highest and the greatest in the universes and a servant is always the least in any establishment. Since JESUS CHRIST is both GOD and a Servant as is taught in the synoptic gospels, It means HE is both the greatest and the least in the kingdom of GOD/the universe. |

daddymummy:YOU ARE CONFUSED... if you are training to be a pastor, you would not bring yourself out here to vomit whatever you think you know.... KNOWLEDGE IS PUFFING YOU UP LIKE PUFF DADDY.. Better go and pray... else you will be an ORATOR. True mark of a pastor is meekness... not your show off for debate here. Jesus HUMBLED HIMSELF... does not mean he is least. He served to teach his disciples how to serve. |

We have also been taught that JESUS CHRIST became man not by adoption but by assumption. HE did not adopt human nature to become man. HE only assumed human nature to become man. In the bible college also,we have been taught that JESUS is not the son of GOD in terms of GOD marrying and giving birth to a son. JESUS is the son of GOD because HE as GOD became man. He is both GOD and the son of GOD. HE is also both man and the son of man. Like i said,HE always takes the extremes in all things. HE is a prophet,priest,king,messiah,and GOD. HE is the one that lived and died. |

Wao. What a revelation this is! I use to think that the least in the kingdom of God are the christians. But you said that Jesus was referring to himself when he said that the least in the kingdom of God was greater than john. daddymummy: |

MISHIGAS! daddymummy:[color=silver].[/color] MATTHEW 23:1-15. THEN Spake Jesus to the multitude, and to his Disciples, 2. Saying, "The scribes and the Pharisees sit in Moses' seat: 3. "All therefore whatsoever they bid you observe, that observe and do; but do not ye after their works: for they say, and do not. 4. "For they bind heavy burdens and grievous to be borne, and lay them on men's shoulders; but they themselves will not move them with one of their fingers. 5. "But all their works they do for to be seen of men: they make broad their phylacteries, and enlarge the borders of their garments, 6. "And love the Uppermost Rooms at feasts, and the Chief Seats in the Synagogues, 7. "And greetings in the markets, and to be called of men, 'Rabbi, Rabbi.' 8. "But be not ye called 'Rabbi:' for one is your Master, even Christ; and all ye are Brethren. 9. "And call no man your father upon the Earth: for one is your Father, Which is in Heaven. 10. "Neither be ye called masters: for one is your Master, even Christ. 11. "But he that is greatest among you shall be your servant. 12. "And whosoever shall exalt himself shall be abased; and he that shall humble himself shall be exalted. 13. "But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, Hypocrites! for ye shut up The Kingdom of Heaven against men: for ye neither go in yourselves, neither suffer ye them that are entering to go in. 14. "Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, Hypocrites! For ye devour widows' houses, and for a pretence make long prayer: therefore ye shall receive The Greater Damnation. 15. "Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, Hypocrites! for ye compass Sea and Land to make one proselyte, and when he is made, ye make him twofold more The Child of Hell than yourselves." THE BIGGEST FOOLS IN ANY CHURCH ARE THE PASTORS AND TEACHER'S. People joining Churches trust that they are following people who know what they are doing. They cannot suspect that so many people, young, old, male and female could all be fools together until they have suffered enough shocks to wake up, and smell the coffin. LORD YESHUA EXPLICITLY FORBADE HIS DISCIPLES FROM BEING "RABBIS" AND "TEACHERS." By the time a new Convert reads that far in The Bible, it is usually too late. The Brainwashing has already reached their Brain from their... lower quarters. There is not much that can be done about it, after that. daddymummy:. I REFUSE TO BELIEVE THAT THERE IS A CHURCH SUNK LOW, THAT THEY COULD TEACH SUCH IGNORANCE. You must be lying when you say that you are training to be a Pastor. [color=silver].[/color] MATTHEW 11:1-19. AND it came to pass, when Jesus had made an end of Commanding his Twelve Disciples, he departed thence to teach and to preach in their cities. 2. Now when John had heard in the prison the Works of Christ, he sent two of his Disciples, 3. And said unto him, "Art thou he that should come, or do we look for another?" 4. Jesus answered and Said unto them, "Go and shew John again those things which ye do hear and see: 5. "The Blind receive their sight, and the Lame walk, the Lepers are cleansed, and the Deaf hear, the Dead are raised up, and the Poor have the Gospel preached to them. 6. "And Blessed is he, whosoever shall not be offended in me." 7. And as they departed, Jesus began to Say unto the multitudes concerning John, "What went ye out into the wilderness to see? A reed shaken with the wind? 8. "But what went ye out for to see? A man clothed in soft raiment? Behold, they that wear soft clothing are in kings' houses. 9. "But what went ye out for to see? A Prophet? Yea, I Say unto you, 'AND MORE THAN A PROPHET.' 10. "For this is he, of whom it is written, 'BEHOLD, I SEND MY MESSENGER BEFORE THY FACE, WHICH SHALL PREPARE THY WAY BEFORE THEE.' 11. 'Verily I Say unto you, 'AMONG THEM THAT ARE BORN OF WOMEN THERE HATH NOT RISEN A GREATER THAN JOHN THE BAPTIST:' notwithstanding he that is least in The Kingdom of Heaven is greater than he. 12. "And from the days of John the Baptist until now The Kingdom of Heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take It by force. 13. "For all the Prophets and the Law prophesied until John. 14. "And if ye will receive it, this is Elias, which was for to come. 15. "He that hath ears to hear, let him hear. 16. "But whereunto shall I liken this Generation? It is like unto children sitting in the markets, and calling unto their fellows, 17. "And saying, 'WE HAVE PIPED UNTO YOU, AND YE HAVE NOT DANCED; WE HAVE MOURNED UNTO YOU, AND YE HAVE NOT LAMENTED.' 18. "For John came neither eating nor drinking, and they say, 'HE HATH A DEVIL.' 19. "The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they say, 'BEHOLD A MAN GLUTTONOUS, AND A WINEBIBBER, A FRIEND OF PUBLICANS AND SINNERS.' But Wisdom is justified of her Children." WHAT IS A KINGDOM? [color=silver].[/color] ECCLESIASTES 8:2-5. 2. I counsel thee to keep the king's commandment, and that in regard of the Oath of God. 3. Be not hasty to go out of his sight: stand not in an Evil Thing; for he doeth whatsoever pleaseth him. 4. Where the word of a king is, there is power: and who may say unto him, "WHAT DOEST THOU?" 5. Whoso keepeth the commandment shall feel no evil thing: and a wise man's heart discerneth both time and judgment. A KINGDOM IS WHEREVER A KINGS WORD IS RECOGNIZED AS LAW. What, then, is The Kingdom of Heaven? [color=silver].[/color]. MATTHEW 4:17. 17. From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, "Repent: for The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand." [color=silver].[/color] MATTHEW 10:7. 7. And as ye go, preach, saying, 'THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN IS AT HAND.' " The Kingdom of Heaven is wherever Heaven's Laws are enforced, and respected. How does one ENTER into The Kingdom of Heaven, if one were not already in It? [color=silver].[/color]. MATTHEW 5:16-20. 16. "Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your Good Works, and glorify your Father Which is in Heaven. 17. "Think not that I am come to destroy The Law, or The Prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil. 18. "For verily I Say unto you, 'TILL HEAVEN AND EARTH PASS, ONE JOT OR ONE TITTLE SHALL IN NO WISE PASS FROM THE LAW, TILL ALL BE FULFILLED.' 19. "Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least Commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in The Kingdom of Heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in The Kingdom of Heaven. 20. "For I Say unto you, 'THAT EXCEPT YOUR RIGHTEOUSNESS SHALL EXCEED THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF THE SCRIBES AND PHARISEES, YE SHALL IN NO CASE ENTER INTO THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN.' ". [color=silver].[/color] MATTHEW 7:12-29. 12. "Therefore all things whatsoever ye would that men should do to you, do ye even so to them: for this is The Law and The Prophets. 13. "Enter ye in at The Strait Gate: for wide is the Gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to Destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: 14. "Because strait is the Gate, and narrow is The Way, which leadeth unto Life, and few there be that find it. 15. "Beware of False Prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. 16. "Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? 17. "Even so every Good Tree bringeth forth Good Fruit; but a Corrupt Tree bringeth forth Evil Fruit. 18. "A Good Tree cannot bring forth Evil Fruit, neither can a Corrupt Tree bring forth Good Fruit. 19. "Every tree that bringeth not forth Good Fruit is hewn down, and cast into the Fire. 20 Wherefore by their Fruits ye shall know them. 21. "Not every one that saith unto me, 'Lord, Lord,' shall enter into The Kingdom of Heaven; but He that doeth The Will of my Father Which is in Heaven. 22 Many will say to me in That Day, 'LORD, LORD, HAVE WE NOT PROPHESIED IN THY NAME? AND IN THY NAME HAVE CAST OUT DEVILS? AND IN THY NAME DONE MANY WONDERFUL WORKS?' 23. "And then will I profess unto them, 'I NEVER KNEW YOU: DEPART FROM ME, YE THAT WORK INIQUITY.' 24. "Therefore whosoever heareth These Sayings of mine, and doeth Them, I will liken him unto a Wise Man, which built his house upon a rock: 25. "And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock. 26 . "And every one that heareth These Sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a Foolish Man, which built his house upon the sand: 27. "And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it." 28. And it came to pass, when Jesus had ended these Sayings, the people were astonished at his Doctrine: 29. For He taught them as one having authority, and not as the scribes. [color=silver].[/color] MATTHEW 18:1-5. AT the same time came the Disciples unto Jesus, saying, "Who is the greatest in The Kingdom of Heaven?" 2. And Jesus called a little child unto him, and set him in the midst of them, 3. And Said, "Verily I Say unto you, 'EXCEPT YE BE CONVERTED, AND BECOME AS LITTLE CHILDREN, YE SHALL NOT ENTER INTO THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN.' 4. "Whosoever therefore shall humble himself as this little child, the same is greatest in The Kingdom of Heaven. 5. "And whoso shall receive one such little child in my Name receiveth me." ACCORDING TO LORD YESHUA, HUMBLING ONESELF TO RECEIVE AND APPLY HIS HEAVENLY TEACHINGS IS ENOUGH TO ADMIT ONE INTO THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN. He explicitly defined THE LEAST IN THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN as those who disobeyed JUST ONE of his Commandments, AND ALSO taught others to do the same. Obviously, HE could NEVER be described as "THE LEAST" in The Kingdom of Heaven. "THE LEAST" of ANY Kingdom are its CONVICTED CRIMINALS- who are being STRIPPED of ALL Membership Rights, pending EJECTION. daddymummy:NO, YOU FOOL! [color=silver].[/color] MATTHEW 5:1-20. AND seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain: and when he was set, his Disciples came unto him: 2. And he opened his mouth, and taught them, Saying, 3. "Blessed are the Poor in Spirit: for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven. 4. "Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted. 5. "Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the Earth. 6. Blessed are they which do Hunger and Thirst after Righteousness: for they shall be filled. 7. "Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain Mercy. 8. "Blessed are the Pure in Heart: for they shall see God. 9. "Blessed are the PeaceMakers: for they shall be called the Children of God. 10. "Blessed are they which are Persecuted for Righteousness' sake: for theirs is The Kingdom of Heaven. 11. "Blessed are ye, when men shall Revile you, and Persecute you, and shall say all manner of Evil against you Falsely, for my sake. 12. "Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your Reward in Heaven: for so Persecuted they the Prophets which were before you. 13. "Ye are The Salt of the Earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? It is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men. 14. "Ye are The Light of the World. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. 15. "Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. 16. "Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your Good Works, and glorify your Father which is in Heaven. 17. "Think not that I am come to destroy The Law, or The Prophets: I am not come to destroy, but to fulfil. 18. "For verily I Say unto you, 'TILL HEAVEN AND EARTH PASS, ONE JOT OR ONE TITTLE SHALL IN NO WISE PASS FROM THE LAW, TILL ALL BE FULFILLED.' 19. "Whosoever therefore shall break one of these least Commandments, and shall teach men so, he shall be called the least in the Kingdom of Heaven: but whosoever shall do and teach them, the same shall be called great in the Kingdom of Heaven. 20. "For I Say unto you, 'THAT EXCEPT YOUR RIGHTEOUSNESS SHALL EXCEED THE RIGHTEOUSNESS OF THE SCRIBES AND PHARISEES, YE SHALL IN NO CASE ENTER INTO THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN.' " All of those whom Lord Yeshua addressed were greater than YOCHANNAN BAPTIST- and ALL of THE OLD TESTAMENT PROPHETS- whether they KEPT AND TAUGHT his Teachings, or NOT. daddymummy:[color=silver]. [/color] JOHN 13:16. 16. "Verily, verily, I Say unto you, 'THE SERVANT IS NOT GREATER THAN HIS LORD; NEITHER HE THAT IS SENT GREATER THAN HE THAT SENT HIM.'

Please I want someone to explain what this scripture means: Amos 3:8 "The lion has roared,who will not fear. The LORD has spoken who will not prophesy." Remember this also: JESUS CHRIST is the least in the kingdom of GOD. JESUS CHRIST is also the greatest in the kingdom of GOD. HE is both the Father and the Son. Remember: When HE spoke of going to meet HIS father, Philip demanded to be shown the Father. But JESUS CHRIST responded that whosoever has seen HIM has seen the Father. |

I want my readers to understand that there is nobody in this universe that enjoys life like JESUS. Remember in HIS right hand are pleasures forever Psalms 16:11 HE is also at the right hand of GOD, enjoying GOD(HIS Father) Also there is nobody/nothing that has suffered like JESUS. Remember,HE is a man of sorrows and acquainted with grief Isaiah 53:3 Even Revelation 1:7 says when JESUS comes back,they shall see HIM whom they pierced and everyone will mourn because of HIM. It is like seeing someone who is suffering so much to the extent that you cry for him,even if you have a heart of stone. Even so,when we see the piercings(the sufferings) on JESUS,we shall all cry, even if your heart is made with stone.You must shed tears for HIM. Every one will mourn because of the piercings that they would see on HIM. That piercing indicates pains and sorrows that JESUS is bearing. Remember whatever evil you do to someone,you do it to JESUS(JESUS himself said so in the bible ). That is why HE is the greatest sufferer. So every pain/crying that we bear is also borne by JESUS. All our pains,tears and sorrows are in JESUS. Like i said,JESUS always takes the best and the worst in everything. HE takes the head and the tail. |

There is no difference between JESUS CHRIST and HIS name. The name of JESUS CHRIST is JESUS CHRIST in spoken form. That is why the name of JESUS CHRIST can heal,save and help us. Why? because the name of JESUS CHRIST is actually JESUS CHRIST in spoken/sound form |

JESUS CHRIST is the way (to GOD),the truth and the life.John 14 When HE spoke of going to the FATHER, a disciple asked HIM where the way was. HE(JESUS CHRIST) said HE was the way. Philip then asked HIM to show them the FATHER. JESUS CHRIST answered that he who has seen HIM has seen the FATHER. In essence,JESUS CHRIST was going on a way to meet HIS FATHER. But JESUS CHRIST revealed that HE was both the way (to HIS FATHER) and also HE was the FATHER. Jut like you are going on the way to Europe. And you are both Europe and the way to Europe. So JESUS CHRIST is both GOD and the way to GOD. Also,in John 10, JESUS CHRIST said that HE was both the door and the one that enters by the door. Naturally,it is not possible for someone to be both the door and also the one that enters by the door. Like someone being both the food and the eater of the food. But like we reveal,JESUS CHRIST is always taking the 2 extremes in all situations. Please read John 10 very well. |

Rev19:12-13: 'And HE (JESUS CHRIST) had a name written,that no man knew,but HIMSELF.....and HIS name is called The Word of GOD'. You see that? JESUS CHRIST has names that are known. The names are JESUS CHRIST and The Word of GOD. HE also has a name that is unknown according to the biblical passage above. It means HE is both the known and the unknown. HE always takes the 2 extremes. |

According to the book of revelation,JESUS CHRIST is the root and the offspring of David,Revelation 22:16. The root of someone is his/her parent(s)/forefathers/ancestor(s), and the offspring of someone is his/her child/children. So what that means is that JESUS CHRIST is both the father and the son of David. Like i said,JESUS CHRIST is always taking the 2 extremes in all cases. HE is both the father and the son of David. HE is both GOD and man. HE is both the greatest and the least. |
