Myer: Do share, how did you determine that willful sin in this context was referred only to rejecting Christ, when the writer was addressing believers??
Like I always say, the bible is subject to various interpretations which is of course where the confusion is.
Let me guess, you don't believe any believer can lose their salvation right? Read the whole chapter first. I don't want to go into much explanation tonight |

Let me guess, you don't believe any believer can lose their salvation right? I'm interpreting according to context, that is the first rule in bible interpretation. Yes believers can't lose their salvation. Salvation is not based on man's effort, it's totally God's effort. |

Kobojunkie: Nowhere in the gospels does Jesus Christ Himself tell you that you become worthy of Him simply by believing in Him. If that were true, then even demons are worthy of Him since they also believe in Jesus Christ.
You need to separate the Truth of God from the lies that you have probably been fed from listening to the many false teachers out there. The sacrifice of Christ was for men not demons, demons believe in him and tremble. You become worthy of him, by believing the gospel.  Hebrews 7:25 (KJV) Wherefore he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them. Hebrews 10:10-14 (KJV) By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all. And every priest standeth daily ministering and offering oftentimes the same sacrifices, which can never take away sins: But this man, after he had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever, sat down on the right hand of God; From henceforth expecting till his enemies be made his footstool. For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are sanctified. Hebrews 10:17 (KJV) And their sins and iniquities will I remember no more. So those who are believers in Christ Jesus can no longer be condemned Roms. 8:1 |

Kobojunkie: Everlasting Life is not Heaven though. So based on that verse what salvation guarantees is eternal/everlasting life instead. And there are two possible destinations for those who have Eternal life and they are Heaven or Hell. By that, you are made to understand that those who will end up in Hell for eternity are also saved..i.e. They believe in Jesus Christ . There is no way someone with eternal life, the life of God will end up in hell

Myer: Hebrews 10:26-27 If we deliberately keep on sinning after we have received the knowledge of the truth, no sacrifice for sins is left, but only a fearful expectation of judgment and of raging fire that will consume the enemies of God.
How is that for your everlasting life? what "truth". The truth about the sacrifice of Jesus for sins that was explained by the writer from verse 5 to 25. To sin willfully in that verse talks about rejecting the sacrifice of Jesus. Anyone that believes in Christ Jesus has been perfected forever, he is forever made worthy. |

Myer: Is heaven guaranteed once you believe in Christ? With scriptural references. yes  John 3:16 (KJV) For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. Very simple and very clear. |

Myer: The bible is very self-contradictory.
There are portions of the bible that say you can know if you're going to be in heaven. Yet there are other portions that say you can never know. The scriptures are not contradictory, the scriptures explains it. Most times the reason why people think there is contradiction is because they are used to quoting scriptures of context. A lot of work must be done on bible hermeneutics and systematic theology |

2Lynx: there are mysteries in heaven and on earth which we can't really explain or understand if even given to us bit by bit not everything is really contained in the bible and even the ones we and ("you" think we and ("you" understand, we will be really awed when the holy spirit minister the true meaning of even the "littlest" scriptures to us. the theory of creation as contained in the holy Bible included... so baba no talk say you utterly understand am cos na the surface we all dey see ooo. we need the holy spirit to make us understand through someone. as in Philip to the eunuch acts 8:27 or expressly as in 1 Corinthians 2:7,10,13. Mystery    ?? That's how heresy start. Stick with the written word, if the scriptures does not say it, it better to be silent on it There is no mystery again, Christ is the explanation of the scriptures |

I love and respect Apostle Joshua Selman, but that message that Adam is not the first man is totally false.
The Bible is enough for us. Trying to be deep and going to extra biblical stuff is the beginning of heresy |

ajl: You are probably stupid and can't reason. Who is the victim and oppressor here? The people who threw a party as early as 9am with loud music and blocking residents access to their houses or a resident who was further threatened by party bouncers. Come to Europe or America and try that nonsense. The party organizer and bouncers will leave with cops in handcuffs, if they survive physically threatening a resident. The fact that most people carry gun put all actors in check. Lawless people. Where is government regulation for what you can or cannot do in a residential area? Seun Kuti beat people up and pulled out a gun because they blocked his street but the same guy blocked Allen Avenue during Endsars destruction. He didn't remember then that there could be emergencies as well. Those who hailed him then are quiet now. |

Politics › INEC Arraigns Professor For Declaring False Election Results In A/ibom by sammy329(op): 8:21am On Dec 10, 2020 |
The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), Akwa Ibom State, has arraigned Professor Ignatius Uduk in court for allegedly declaring false election results. Prof. Uduk was said to have declared and published false election results during the 2019 State House of Assembly election when he served as collation/returning officer at INEC office, Afaha Ikot Ebak in Essien Udim Local Government Area of Akwa Ibom State. The professor was arraigned on three count charges of abandonment of duties and generation of false scores on form EC BE (II) on March 10, 2019, at INEC office in Afaha Ikot Ebak during the State House of Assembly elections; announcement and publication of false election result; and lying on oath at the inception of the election petition tribunal. He pleaded not guilty to the three count charges levelled against him, while his counsel, Samuel Ndah, prayed that the professor be granted bail. Counsel to INEC, Kpoobari Sigalo, who had filed a counter-affidavit, however, objected that the defendant be granted bail as he had proved to be evasive. The presiding judge, Justice Archibong Archibong, adjourned the case to December 14, 2020, for ruling on the bail application, DT reports. http://saharareporters.com/2020/12/10/inec-arraigns-professor-declaring-false-election-results-aibomCc: Lalasticlala, mynd44 |
