Open your eyes and read the OP!

You will clearly see where Jesus said he came NOT to abolish the law and the Prophets!

When your own holy spirit excels in abusing others how will you have eyes to see?
where did he say abolish?
Abdools are as dumb as alah and Mohammad.
You don't know the difference between destroy and abolish? Lol
Shame on alah and his prophet.

Jesus says:
For by your words you will be justified, and by your words you will be condemned. Matthew 12:37

vs

Paul who says:
for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, and are justified freely by His grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus. Romans 3:23-24

Since we have now been justified by his blood, how much more shall we be saved from God’s wrath through him! Romans 5:9

I tire for Paul o!

Why does he have to always contradict Jesus?
He didn't meet Jesus and was never taught or commissioned by him!

How are we justified?
By our words or by his blood or by grace?
As ignorant as Mohammad, how come you Muslims always pray for alah's mercy? If you truly trust in your works you don't need alah's mercy

Jesus says he didn't come to abolish the Law and the Prophets
Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them. Matthew 5:17

Paul says Christ is the end of the law
For Christ is the end of the law, to bring righteousness to everyone who believes. Romans 10:4

by abolishing in His flesh the law of commandments and decrees. He did this to create in Himself one new man out of the two, thus making peace. Ephesians 2:15

Pardon my inquiry please.

Does the belief that God sent Jesus imply God did not send other prophets and only sent Jesus?
Even the stupid Koran called Jesus the messiah meaning he is more than a prophet.
God sent prophets before Christ and all the prophet sent were jews.

وَاضْرِبْ لَهُمْ مَثَلًا أَصْحَابَ الْقَرْيَةِ إِذْ جَاءَهَا الْمُرْسَلُون١٣
إِذْ أَرْسَلْنَا إِلَيْهِمُ اثْنَيْنِ فَكَذَّبُوهُمَا فَعَزَّزْنَا بِثَالِثٍ فَقَالُوا إِنَّا إِلَيْكُمْ مُرْسَلُونَ١٤

And put forward to them a similitude; the Dwellers of the Town, when there came Messengers to them (13)
When We sent to them two Messengers, they denied them both; so We reinforced them with a third, and they said: "Verily, we have been sent to you as Messengers. (14)
They said: "You are only human beings like ourselves, and the Most Gracious has revealed nothing. You are only telling lies. (15)
The Messengers said: "Our Lord knows that we have been sent as Messengers to you, (16)
"And our duty is only to convey plainly. (17)

The Story of the Dwellers of the Town and Their Messengers, a Lesson that Those Who belied Their Messengers were destroyed

Allah says, 'O Muhammad, tell your people who disbelieve in you,'

مَثَلًا أَصْحَابَ الْقَرْيَةِ إِذْ جَاءَهَا الْمُرْسَلُونَ

(a similitude; the Dwellers of the Town, when there came Messengers to them.) In the reports that he transmitted from Ibn 'Abbas, Ka'b Al-Ahbar and Wahb bin Munabbih – Ibn Ishaq reported that it was the city of Antioch, in which there was a king called Antiochus the son of Antiochus the son of Antiochus, who used to worship idols. Allah sent to him three Messengers, whose names were Sadiq, Saduq and Shalum, and he disbelieved in them. It was also narrated from Buraydah bin Al-Husayb, 'Ikrimah, Qatadah and Az-Zuhri that it was Antioch. Some of the Imams were not sure that it was Antioch, as we shall see below after telling the rest of the story, if Allah wills.

إِذْ أَرْسَلْنَا إِلَيْهِمُ اثْنَيْنِ فَكَذَّبُوهُمَا

(When We sent to them two Messengers, they denied them bothwink means, they hastened to disbelieve in them.

فَعَزَّزْنَا بِثَالِثٍ

(so We reinforced them with a third,) means, 'We supported and strengthened them with a third Messenger. ' Ibn Jurayj narrated from Wahb bin Sulayman, from Shu'ayb Al-Jaba'i, "The names of the first two Messengers were Sham'un[Peter] and Yuhanna[John], and the name of the third was Bulus[Paul], and the city was Antioch (Antakiyah).

فَقَالُوا

(and they said) means, to the people of that city,

إِنَّا إِلَيْكُمْ مُرْسَلُونَ

(Verily, we have been sent to you as Messengers.) meaning, 'from your Lord Who created you and Who commands you to worship Him Alone with no partners or associates.' This was the view of Abu Al-'Aliyah. Qatadah bin Di'amah claimed that they were messengers of the Messiah, peace be upon him, sent to the people of Antioch.

Thank you!
abdool! Jesus is literally believing in him is the same as believing in the father that is how one is saved.

Jesus said he and the father are one.

Luke 10:22 All things are delivered to me of my Father: and no man knoweth who the Son is, but the Father; and who the Father is, but the Son, and he to whom the Son will reveal him.

John 10:30 I and my Father are one.

So i should just believe in the statement you typed as against what Jesus allegedly said "Very truly I tell you, whoever hears my word and believes him who sent me has eternal life and will not be judged but has crossed over from death to life. John 5:24?

The statement is clear!
It is not by grace!
You are not making sense. According to the text salvation comes through faith in the father, and again the only way to believe in the father is to believe in the Son he sent.
John 6:40 And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.

John 12:44 Jesus cried and said, He that believeth on me, believeth not on me, but on him that sent me.
Believing in Jesus is the same as believing in the father.

Paul says grace...
so that, just as sin reigned in death, so also grace might reign through righteousness to bring eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord. Romans 5:21

Paul loses!
You must believe in God who sent Jesus to be saved!
If you believe God then you will accept Jesus as your Lord and saviour otherwise you don't believe in God.
Jesus preached salvation by grace same with Paul, no difference.

So you didn't see the "with" in your statement?

Secondly, creation through Jesus Christ didn't means Jesus is God. It can also mean Jesus accompanied his father to create things. Shebi Bible say he was the firstborn of all creation? (Colossians 1:15, 18). If he was the first creation, tor, he was there in the beginning and John's verse in 1v1 makes more sense.

Even Hebrews 1:6; 12:23 and the cited scriptures above clearly explained that Jesus was created.

My question to you: was God created?
Why are you jumping up and down?
Yes creation by Jesus mean he is God.

Isaiah 44:24 Thus saith the LORD, thy redeemer, and he that formed thee from the womb, I am the LORD that maketh all things; that stretcheth forth the heavens alone; that spreadeth abroad the earth by myself;
Col
Furthermore, John 1 said without Jesus nothing that was made would be made.

Col 1 : 17 said he is before all things Furthermore, first born does not mean first created, it means he is preferred over all creation.
And lastly were did he say God or the word was created?
Christianity Etc › Re: JW 005 What Is The Difference Between Christians And Jehovah's Witnesses? by Steep(m): 7:03pm On Jul 11, 2024
MaxInDHouse:
CHRISTIANS/JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES
What is the difference?
JEHOVAH called all His faithful servants His WITNESSES:
“You are my witnesses,” declares Jehovah, “Yes, my servant whom I have chosen, So that you may know and have faith in me And understand that I am the same One. Before me no God was formed, And after me there has been none. Isaiah 43:10
So from the time of Abel till the day of John the baptist JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES have always proved to be unique even though they are in the midst of those worshiping the only true God. Do you remember Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego?
They were Jews taken to Babylon with the rest of the worshipers of God but when everyone was scared to stand out Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego stood on their ground prepared to die for their faith.
Jesus is the prophet God foretold right from the beginning {Genesis 3:15} who will destroy the works of the devil by exposing all his tricks and teaching people how to gain salvation {Deuteronomy 18:18-19} so the time Jesus walked the earth all those attracted to him by God's word {John 6:44} to learn from him and practice what Jesus taught are called "CHRISTIANS" but those sticking to what Jesus taught against all odds are the unique ones who stood out like their kind before them: JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES!

So just as some worshipers of God in ancient times turned their backs on pure worship a Christian too may turn back from following the Way of holiness {Isaiah 35:8} but a Witness of Jehovah will never ever turn back no matter what happens! John 6:68; Romans 8:37-39
So Jehovah witness are not Christians thanks for admitting it.
Every cult has one story or the other to say in other to lay claim to pure worship.
The followers of Jesus were called Christians thanks for making it clear thatyou don't follow Jesus christ.

Second, the holy spirit is a person too?

The doctrine of trinity has so many flaws.
So only catholics believe in the Trinity? John 1 :1 already told you Jesus is God.
Can you sin against a non person? Yet Jesus said people can sin against the Holy Spirit. Matt 12 vv 31

It simply means people of the nations need to have the knowledge of God through studying what He did in ancient times and how He used the Holy Spirit to accomplish His purpose and the part His only begotten Son will play in the salvation of mankind.

The Jews already had the knowledge of God's word through the scriptures and how His Holy Spirit works but they don't know anything about Jesus and his role in the salvation of mankind that's why Peter didn't baptize them in the name of three but one person: Jesus Christ! Act 2:38

Do you understand now? smiley
These are all failed attempt by jwo at explaining away the Trinity as revealed in that verse.

A Christian is a follower of Christ Jesus. Jesus is a follower of God. How can God be a Christian?

Moses was not even a Christian. Name it: Enoch, Samson, David etc! Christianity arrived when Jesus arrived.

Christians are followers of God, we are not just followers but also sons of God. Enoch, samson, David were all followers of God just as Christians now, the only difference is that the God whom they followed took on human form and his name became Jesus.

It is a contradiction to say a born again believer may end up in hell.
Don't just type with emotions you have to provide proof from scriptures
Jesus said he will never lose his sheep, his sheep hear his voice and Will not follow another, he says he gives his sheep eternal life and they will never perish, he did not say they may never perish but that they will never perish.

John 10:27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:

10:28 And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.

John 10:29 My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand.


John further said that he that is born of God sinneth not.

1 John 5:18 We know that whosoever is born of God sinneth not; but he that is begotten of God keepeth himself, and that wicked one toucheth him not.

The very definition of a born again already mean they are eternally secured.
So anybody that does not follow Jesus leading/ abide in his doctrine is not a sheep of christ and hence is not saved.

If you must make heaven, you must be born again and walk in the light of God's word. And you are born again the very moment you believe in the death and resurrection of Jesus and confess him as your Lord and Saviour- Romans 10:9-10.

So, its important to be born again. However, the journey to heaven doesn't stop at being born again. You must walk in the light of God's word now that you are saved otherwise heaven will elude you.

There are so many Christians who are born again but do not walk in the light of God's word. Some have the wrong teaching of eternal security. There is no such thing.

Highlighted below are some of the reasons some born again believers will not make heaven;

1. No Brotherly Love
2. Lukewarmness
3. Unfruifullness
4. Habitual Abstinence from Church Services and Lateness to Church.
5. Unforgiven.
6. Evil Speaking and Slander
7. Causing Division in Church
