Religion / You Are Powerful!!! by TheNazarene: 10:28pm On Feb 09, 2019 |
Just read this and it ministered to me. Decided to share it You are able to resist the enemy by your choice. You are not weak, you above not beneath. In this encounter, Jesus talks about your choice, compromise, and holiness. Hear His thoughts about you and just how powerful you are! source - https://beholdwonder.com/2017/06/02/you-are-powerful/ |

Religion / Re: Why Are Christians Not Practicing This Commandment Of Jesus? Topic they avoid by TheNazarene: 12:22am On May 20, 2018 |
Even in the common actions of life, Christ marks what we do, not only in our religious assemblies, but at our tables. We see in many cases, that a man's pride will bring him low, and before honour is humility. Our Saviour here teaches, that works of charity are better than works of show. But our Lord did not mean that a proud and unbelieving liberality should be rewarded, but that his precept of doing good to the poor and afflicted should be observed from love to him.

I wish there was a whatsapp group for this thread, where we can share revelations just as we do here, even deeper ones war might not want to share on a public forum and pray, fast accordingly... God is not revealing mysteries to us as a perk of our relationship with Him but to also thwart or delay the works of darkness... Just imagine this revelation of pyramids, the devil and his children have been preparing delicately nefariously since ages, Kai!!! This gave me a reality check when I read it... I will go to heaven and I will go on a high pedestal in Jesus Name. 5 Likes |

SamoaJoe: Someone put you in your place for quoting a Bible verse out of context and you say he is a mother what? who said the earth never had an end? I know i didn't say that... You guys always say the whites abandoned Christianity? I don't know why you guys like lying like this? Wasn't it Billy Graham who died and so many people stood for him? If its not Christianity, what are they then practicing? Abi is their Holy Bible different from ours? Yea...yeah they successfully predicted disasters and they released an album for Haiti victims? And it seems you don't get why I graced you with a mention previously, I hope I didn't waste my time? What I was trying to say is that is it not better to thank God who can deliver me and my assets from natural disasters than glorify unworthy science and scientists who can predict them to a very limited extent and I might still be a victim because despite how technologically advanced they're, they are still prone to errors and my survivability is not certain if I put my trust in them? |

SamoaJoe: You're so myopic. What is the meaning of foundation? According to Google, there are two definitions: 1. the lowest load-bearing part of a building, typically below ground level. 2. an underlying basis or principle. Don't limit yourself, be educated, not to your peril sha...because from what Google says and from what I understand a foundation doesn't only mean "an immovable below", you get me? Psalm 104:5 Who laid the foundations of the earth, that it should not be removed for ever. Therefore, what this Bible verse is saying is that God has created a foundation an put the earth on it to move in a direction at a slant and that no person, man or satan can alter it by the slightest percentage. So please don't be an ignoramus nor act like one. Taking into consideration the grammar used those days, its just like saying the chassis of a mercedes is so well built it can't be moved, does it mean the car doesn't have four moving wheels? And forget all those billion galaxies crap, that is why He is Omnipotent, He can choose to create a tree, give only a branch the ability to bear fruits and chose a particular flower to bear all the fruits. So, according to science, there might be a billion galaxies that supports better life but in God's creation, there is only one planet that has life and that's reality, deal with it! |

SamoaJoe: I am not trying to hinder your pursuit of knowledge ooo... But all what you wrote are the scientific details of an event that was set in motion by God. In our bid to look knowledgeable without admitting to a higher power, this is what we get, unnecessary complexity. Take for instance, when a man wants to take a step, they tell you the crap of your brain sending signals to the sensory neurone, from the to the intermediate then effector neurone, which then activates the muscles needed to make such step, story, all those happen because God gives strength and ensures you stand on your feet. Psalm 18:33 He maketh my feet like hinds' feet, and setteth me upon my high places. Psalm 18:36 Thou hast enlarged my steps under me, that my feet did not slip. Because there are a many who receive the signals from the brain to the muscles and cant take a step,nothing happens, why? There are many who receive the signals from the brain to the muscles, takes a step or more but can't stand why? Because science is insufficient and will never be! Yes, the earth is spinning fast and tectonic plates moves resulting to an earthquake, are there no tectonic plates in Africa? Why don't we experience terrible earthquakes as some other parts of the world? Abi the resultant of the spins are not evenly distributed to all parts of the earth? Why is it that not all plates move evenly? See, I better thank God for no unfortunate occurrence of earthquakes than to pray for one so as to further my alleged knowledge. Many things happen according to the laws of science but don't give the same results postulated by science and vice versa. Yes we know the cause of earthquakes but how does it help us to stop destruction? Our earthquake signal detectors/systems in place might be blaring and there can be no earthquake, sometimes our reaction time can be so short we can't brace ourselves. |
Religion / Re: Is Marriage Restitution For Men With 2 Or More Wives Actually Scriptural? by TheNazarene: 2:43pm On Jan 24, 2018 |
lonikit: First, lets get things straight, I am replying as a believer in Jesus Christ not as a member of RCCG, Winners, OFM, Christ Embassy or any of them. Secondly, don't think you can comprehend God because He made us in His Image, in His Likeness! We are by far inferior to Him in both our most domesticated and wildest imaginations, He can do and undo whatever He pleases and will not be questioned. That is why He is God. If you want the foolishness of mankind to cause you to question or challenge Him, I can tell you boldly that there won't be a beginning to your story. Now when we study the Bible from the beginning, we see that when man fell, all God has been doing is to bring into this world through human means a man that will be blameless, which is His Son Jesus Christ. And so He chose Abraham, Isaac then Jacob who gave rise to Israel. Looking at the patriarchs, we will see that they were let me put purify to God's standard for all nations through many trials and testings, therefore their descendants Israel was (at that time) a nation through which God can bring forth the Saviour of the world. Then, He chose Judah, who also got the kind of blessings from Jacob, which hinted of Judah being a royal house/lineage, everything is set, God now has a chose lineage out of a chosen nation, He just have to ensure continuity while maintaining the purity of that lineage by any (Godly/goodly) means necessary. Genesis 38:2 And Judah saw there a daughter of a certain Canaanite, whose name was Shuah; and he took her, and went in unto her. Genesis 38:3 And she conceived, and bare a son; and he called his name Er. Genesis 38:4 And she conceived again, and bare a son; and she called his name Onan. Genesis 38:5 And she yet again conceived, and bare a son; and called his name Shelah: and he was at Chezib, when she bare him. Genesis 38:6 And Judah took a wife for Er his firstborn, whose name was Tamar. Genesis 38:7 And Er, Judah's firstborn, was wicked in the sight of the LORD; and the LORD slew him. Genesis 38:8 And Judah said unto Onan, Go in unto thy brother's wife, and marry her, and raise up seed to thy brother. Genesis 38:9 And Onan knew that the seed should not be his; and it came to pass, when he went in unto his brother's wife, that he spilled it on the ground, lest that he should give seed to his brother. Genesis 38:10 And the thing which he did displeased the LORD: wherefore he slew him also. Genesis 38:11 Then said Judah to Tamar his daughter in law, Remain a widow at thy father's house, till Shelah my son be grown: for he said, Lest peradventure he die also, as his brethren did. And Tamar went and dwelt in her father's house. Genesis 38:12 And in process of time the daughter of Shuah Judah's wife died; and Judah was comforted, and went up unto his sheepshearers to Timnath, he and his friend Hirah the Adullamite. Looking at the traditions of that time, it was like an abomination for a man not to have a descendant that will preserve his name that is why Judah told Onan to sleep with Tamar to give Er a descendant (absurd right? but that was what was obtainable then) But satan living up to his name as being evil, trying to put a stop to God's plans, got Er and Onan to incur God's wrath and get killed, and at that time his daughter also died which gave Judah goosebumps of losing all His children Therefore Judah tried to safeguard his last descendant, Shelah (who might have have evil tendencies as his brothers) rather than give him to Tamar so as to avoid the same fate as his brothers, he tried to stifle traditions, well God didn't have time for the traditions of men, all He wanted was to ensure the continuity of Judah till the time of Jesus birth. And so satan played into God's Hands, satan thought that Judah sleeping with a prostitute will scatter everything and taint Judah, but to the shame of the devil, Judah slept with Tamar who is not a prostitute but disguised as one, now I am not saying my next postulation is infallible but...since the traditions of that time required the first son to have a descendant, so we can say Judah gave Er a descendant, while staying alive and without risking Shelah. So we can say technically he did the right thing according to the traditions at the time, which justifies Pharez as a legitimate son. I don't have the time now to go into Solomon and Rehoboam's cases, but all I can say is that these three exceptions are God's way of proving to us that with Him no matter how messy our lives are, we can have a glorious and and expected end. Because as we can see Judah, David and Solomon didn't train their children well enough in the way of the Lord which brought about this mess Jeremiah 29:11 For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith the LORD, thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end. and please can you quote the place in the Bible God promised David many wives? |

Religion / Re: Is Marriage Restitution For Men With 2 Or More Wives Actually Scriptural? by TheNazarene: 12:25pm On Jan 22, 2018 |
lonikit: First we need to understand basics... What is Restitution? According to Google, there are two definitions 1. the restoration of something lost or stolen to its [b]proper owner. 2. recompense for injury or loss[/b] And according to the Bible, we are permitted to 'own' or preferably have one wife. It then means God gives a man 'rights' to only a woman, therefore when you go ahead to take another woman as a wife, you actually don't own that woman, you don't have any proper rights over her, you only have forced rights over her. And something you don't have proper rights over is actually not yours, it is stolen So if restitution is a Biblical necessity and if we are to go by the first definition of restitution according to Google, it means we have to restore any woman we don't have proper rights to, to is proper owner. But we don't know who God ordained to be the proper owner of these women, so the man actually separates them (other women and their children) from him and his first wife and her children and, according to the second definition of restitution by Google) [i]recompense for injury or loss caused by the man to the woman/women by being responsible for their upkeep till a man approved by you to be able to take care of them comes along. You may ask why should you be responsible for her real marriage? well when a man marries a woman, he becomes not only a husband but a father to her (among other responsibilities if there are), so although you can't be a husband to more than a wife, you can be a father to people 1 Like |

lonikit: I am not saying Rachael wasn't a wife ooo but if you look at the genealogy of Jesus in the Bible with the exception of David (due to certain reasons), every person God used was the result of the union between their father and the first wife...So the first wife is legitimate and the others illegitimate |

Neutral15: Oga, go and read your Bible. Stop saying what you don't know. A Christian's joy is to have fruits which will ABIDE and not just an increase in people gaining salvation. John 15:1 I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. John 15:2 Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit. John 15:3 Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you. John 15:4 Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. John 15:5 I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing. John 15:6 If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned. John 15:7 If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you. 1 Like |

To me there's nothing wrong with the translation. Yes, God is our Father but if we don't acknowledge Him as our Father and give Him His due respect willingly, of our own volition, you car Him from functioning as a Father in your life and unfortunately for you He will watch you fall over and over again till you call on Him. |

Douglaufuoma: I don't think not praying for long is a sign of weakness. It all depends on the individual, some can pray for hours on a stretch, some little little prayers but there is no moment or hour of the day they don't pray irrelevant of where they are at that point in time and some can do both. Although, there are times you have to pray in the not so preferred way depending on the circumstance, therefore I will advise that you don't be (too) rigid in your style of prayer because the devil improves on his styles of attack. #JesusIsLord 1 Like |

frosbel2: Why do you think it is said that you should read the Bible again and again and again? Because there can be so much revelation from a verse. Even concerning worldly knowledge, it is said that a man cannot be an island, is it then in Christendom that you have all intepretation of God's Word? The only reason I will reject an intepretation of the Word of God is when it contradicts the Word of God. God giving you a different intepretation is different from God saying the other intepretation was false, get your arguments straight! And by the way who is your 'man of God'? Because me no get. And ofcourse I ask God for wisdom and understanding when reading not only His Word but also my books. Shey if you are reading your Bible everyday your man of God will give you intepretation everyday?
