Sometimes you must stand still in order to get moving to where God wants you to go - D. A. McBride.
We humans are the ones always getting out of time, God the Creator of time is never in a hurry and His time is always best for us. Focus on what He is doing while you are prayerfully waiting, that is often His goal, where is taking you is often extra.

Religion / Re: Divine Prosperity And The Word by UceeGod: 12:40pm On Jul 20, 2019
God doesn't even want us to be looking for material wealth as genuine Christians. All Jesus preached was His Kingdom, seeking Him, seeking Him with all your heart and soul is all God wants from His children. Material wealth will come to those who God wishes to give not because you pray for it or worked for it, afterall worldly people are also blessed with material wealth.
So enough with all this financial prosperity messages and focus on building up the Kingdom of God in holiness and righteousness. Stop hanging your gospel faith and salvation around prosperity and start preaching contentment and sufficiency in God's Providence and Glory.

Respecting someone doesn't mean you shouldn't speak against him or oppose him when he does wrong or continuously does evil. This is the greatest undoing of Christian leaders (pastors) in Nigeria. Instead they welcome them with open hands into their congregations and dance around them like they are some gods. Imagine a pastor settling a rift between Atiku and Obasanjo when he should be criticizing them for being part of those keeping Nigeria in this mess of a system.

@UceeGod and Maximus69


Truly, those upon whom the word of God has been justified will not believe even if ALL THE SIGNS should come to them- until they see a painful torment (Qur'an 10:96-97)



However, let me just to try for the last time to help you see how Christianity get it wrong based on its doctrine of sin atonement through Jesus crucifixion ;


Premise 1; Atonement of sin through Jesus crucifixion is the ONLY SALVATION PLAN that God has designed for humanity .


Premise 2; Hence, the people who made this divine plan (i:e Jesus crucifixion) to be POSSIBLE (like Judas Iscariot who betrayed Jesus Christ and those who allegedly crucified him) has done a VERY GOOD JOB in the eyes of God who initiated the salvation plan and in the eyes of humanity who would benefit from this plan


Premise 3; Therefore, these people (i:e Judas Iscariot and his colleagues) really deserve THANKS and KUDOS from God and humanity ;

Of course a commissioner of police, who secretly release some armed robbers from their life imprisonment, deserve thanks and kudos from the robbers. Even if the robbers knew that what the commissioner has done is against the law, they will still give kudos and thanks to him. This is because their release from life imprisonment is far more important in the eyes of the robbers; just like salvation of humanity is far more important in the eyes of God and humanity.


Premise 4; But we know for sure that BETRAYERS and MURDERERS of an innocent and righteous soul (like Judas Iscariot and his colleagues) do not deserve any thanks and kudos from God and humanity .

Since there is inevitable CONTRADICTION between the Premise 3 and Premise 4, therefore, it follows that if Premise 4 is true then Premise 3 must not be true .

And if Premise 3 is not true then Premise 2 is also not true (this is because if Premise 2 is true, then Premise 3 must also be true).

Similarly, if Premise 2 is not true, then Premise 1 is also not true (this is because if Premise 1 is true, then Premise 2 must also be true ) .

And if Premise 1 is not true, then Christianity is also not true( this is because Christianity ASSUME Premise 1 to be true) .


Now tell us what is wrong with this analysis. In other word, which of the FOUR PREMISES explained above is logically not correct ?


If both of you are very sure that Christianity is true, then point out, with LOGICAL REASON, the premise that is not correct among the four premises cited above
Your logical reasonings are all based on philosophical assumptions. Christian logical reasoning is based on spiritual realities - that's what makes it TRUE FAITH. I can't go on explaining spiritual concepts to you because you'll never understand and your mind is already made up on your own prejudice.

1. John7:9 you cited is irrelevant to topic of discussion.

John 14:26 says; But the Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things, and bring to your remembrance all things that I said to you.


Now tell us the difference between the "Holy spirit" mentioned above and the "Spirit of the LORD" made mentioned in the following verses of Old Testament;


The SPIRIT of the LORD came upon him, so that he became Israel's judge and went to war. The LORD gave Cushan-Rishathaim king of Aram into the hands of Othniel, who overpowered him. Judges 3:10


When they arrived at Gibeah, a procession of prophets met him; the SPIRIT of God came upon him in power, and he joined in their prophesying. 1st Samuel 10:10


Then the LORD came down in the cloud and spoke to him, and He took some of the SPIRIT that was on Moses and placed that Spirit on the seventy elders. As the Spirit rested on them, they prophesied Numbers 11:25


Then the SPIRIT of the LORD came on Gideon, and he blew a trumpet, summoning the Abiezrites to follow him.Judges 6:34



And the SPIRIT of the LORD came upon him, and he went down to Ashkelon, and slew thirty men of them, and took their spoil, and gave change of garments unto them which expounded the riddle. And his anger was kindled, and he went up to his father's house. Judges 14:19



2. Genesis 22:14 says; So Abraham called that place The LORD Will Provide. And to this day it is said, "On the mountain of the LORD it will be provided."
So where is the hint in this verse that Abraham was looking forward to ultimate sacrifice of Jesus on the Cross for salvation of humanity ?
Again you wrote ;
"and it pointed to the ultimate sacrifice when God would provide Himself(Christ), not an angel or a mere man but God Himself to save and redeem us"
Are you saying Jesus is God?
This is another problem in Christianity.
In John 20:17, Jesus was reported to have said “I am ascending to my Father and your Father, and to my God and your God”. If Jesus is God Almighty, then which God was he referring to when he said ; "my God and your God" ? Can God Almighty have another God?
Also Luke 6:12 says "He (Jesus) went out to the mountain side to pray, and continued all night in prayer to God" .
If Jesus is God, who was he praying to? Was he praying to himself ?
Mark 10:17-18 says as follows ; "Now as He was going out on the road, one came running, knelt before Him, and asked Him, “Good Teacher, what shall I do that I may inherit eternal life?” So Jesus said to him, “Why do you call Me good? No one is good but One, that is, God.”.
If Jesus is God, why did he reject being called “good” and then submit that all goodness belongs only to God?
Again, in Matthew 24:36, Jesus said; “But of that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the son, but ONLY THE FATHER”.
If Jesus is God, why did he confess his lack of knowledge about the Day of Judgment and then submit that the knowledge of that day belongs only to the Father? Can God be lacking anything as regard to knowledge ?


3. If the tearing of temple curtain implies the abrogation of Old Testament Laws, then Jesus has CONTRADICTED his original sayings for He said;
17. DO NOT THINK I CAME TO DESTROY THE LAW or the (way of the) PROPHETS. I did not come to destroy but to fulfill. 18. For assuredly, I say to you,TILL HEAVEN AND THE EARTH PASS AWAY, one jot or one tittle will by no means pass from the law till all is fulfilled. 19. WHOSEVER 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. (Matthew 5:17-19)
(Please see how the phrase "WHOSOEVER THEREFORE " connects the three verses together. This implies that the "law or ( the way of) the prophets " talking about in verse 17 is the same thing with the "commandments " made mention in verse 19.
Hence, from these very verses , we learnt that any person that UPHOLD the law (i:e the commandments) and ask people to do the same shall be called GREAT in the kingdom of heaven. And any person that SET ASIDE the law and ask people to do the same shall be called the LEAST in the kingdom of heaven. Therefore, it is totally a WRONG interpretation to proclaim that Jesus came to fulfil the law by his sacrificial death on the cross .


In another place,it is written as follows;
It is easier for heaven and earth to disappear than for the least stroke of a pen to drop out of the LAW (Luke 16:17 NIV).


In fact, when Jesus commanded the disciples to do everything preached by the teachers of the law, he did not say this command will be for a short period of time. He said
"The TEACHERS OF THE LAW and the Pharisees sit in Moses' seat. So you must be careful to DO EVERYTHING they tell you. But do not do what they do, for they do not practice what they preach (Matthew 23:1-3 NIV)" .
Is there any indication in this verse that this command will end after Jesus ascension to heaven ? Certainly not!


Every interpretation you gave to your Bible quotations are diabolically wrong and out of context.

1. The modus operandi of the Holy Spirit in the Old Testament was to come upon (manifest presence of God) His people but in the new testament, He comes in (indwelling presence) to His people. The Holy Spirit never dwelt in anyone before Christ.

2. Genesis 22:14 was no HINT but CONFIRMATION that Abraham, Moses and other Jews of his day looked forward to an ultimate sacrifice by God Himself. Abraham didn’t name the place in reference to what he experienced, but he named it in view of what will happen in the future. He named it Mount Provision - Jehova Jireh and Moses confirmed by saying even in his own day, men looked at that hill and said, “In the Mount of the LORD it shall be provided.” it was on this same hill(Mount Moriah) that Solomon built the temple( 2 Chronicles 3:1) and on the same set of hills Jesus would later die on the cross. What other evidence are looking for unless you're going to turn a blind eye and cold heart to a glaring truth.
I know I have given you a plethora of evidence on another thread that Jesus Christ the Son of God is God Almighty in human form, a Self-revelation of God in human form and I'll not waste my time going back there because you have a penchant for turning your back on the truth no matter how glaring it is.

3. Jesus came, walked on this earth for 33yrs and fulfilled the whole law in its entirety, something no other human before and after Him had ever or would ever do. God gave the Jews the law He knows they'll never be able to keep, that's why provision for atonement was made available. Now, Jesus has fulfilled all the requirements of the law so that anyone who believes ( has FAITH) in Him will have His righteousness inputted in him - that's justification by GRACE. The law was the ABC of God's Principles, anyone who has the Spirit of God in his spirit doesn't need to look the law to be right with God; the Spirit behind the Precepts(law) is already in him guiding all his conducts according to God's Principles. So rendering the temple veil is a very significant event that all Christians(starting from the original apostles) know to be the end of God's covenant of law. Genuine Christians naturally keep to the PRINCIPLES behind PRECEPTS (law) which pointed towarda the PERSON (CHRIST) as they constantly follow the leading of the indwelling Holy Spirit who guides into all truth concerning the PERSON of Christ.

@ UceeGod


Based on your submission written above, I want to ask you the following questions;

1. Can you show us any biblical verse to prove that Abraham did not have such spiritual and personal relationship with God- the relationship that you believe to be possible ONLY through Christ- ?

2. Can you show us a single verse from the Old Testament to prove that Abraham, Moses and the likes were looking forward to Jesus' sacrifice on the Cross ?


3. If the covenant brought by Jesus was based on faith through GRACE and not through OBEDIENCE TO THE LAW as you think, then what do you have to say about Jesus' statement quoted below ?

"The TEACHERS OF THE LAW and the Pharisees sit in Moses' seat. So you must be careful to DO EVERYTHING they tell you. But do not do what they do, for they do not practice what they preach (Matthew 23:1-3 NIV)" .


1. The personal and spiritual relationship with God is only possible through FAITH in Christ the Son of God, when the Spirit of God comes in, regenerates and starts living in the spirit of man. No one (including Abraham) had this kind of relationship with God until Christ ascended - John 7:9, 14:26.

2. Genesis 22:14. Abraham named the place knowing God would provide the ultimate sacrifice for salvation on that hill someday. Abraham, and later Moses(writer of the book of Genesis), recognized that God did provide a ram as a replacement for Isaac, and it pointed to the ultimate sacrifice when God would provide Himself(Christ), not an angel or a mere man but God Himself to save and redeem us.

3. The new covenant of GRACE doesn't cancel obedience to the law but it's the goal of the old covenant of law - Matthew 5:17. The covenant God made with Abraham and his descendants was based on FAITH not obedience. Afterall no one was able to fulfill the law(complete OBEDIENCE) until Christ. God declared Abraham righteous not because of his obedience but based on his FAITH in God which yields obedience. Likewise FAITH in Christ is the basis of righteousness in Christians; the free gift of Christ's righteousness inputted in Christians is the GRACE of God not earned by OBEDIENCE but only by FAITH. In Matthew 23:1-3, Christ expected that the Jews had FAITH in God (of course they were still under the old covenant). The old covenant ended after the death of Christ - Matthew 27:51, Mark 15:38, Luke 23:45, 2 Corinthians 3:14,15. The new covenant took effect after the Christ's acension - Acts 2:4, Acts 4:8.

@ UceeGod
What do you mean by "No one was able to reconcile himself back to God before Christ" ? Do you even know the meaning of 'reconciliation' ? Reconciliation means ; the reestablishment of FRIENDLY relations.
Now see how God called Abraham His friend;
"But you, Israel, are My servant,Jacob whom I have chosen,The descendants of Abraham My FRIEND (Isaiah 41:7-9)

What actually made Abraham to enjoy such a cordial relationship with God ? Was it because of redemption through Christ ? Was it because of GRACE through his FAITH in Christ ? Was it because of his belief in the atoning work of Christ on the Cross? No, no and no!

It was because of his constancy in obeying and keeping the law and commandments of God;

"I will make your descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky and will give them all these lands, and through your offspring all nations on earth will be blessed, because Abraham obeyed me and kept my requirements, my commands, my decrees and my laws." (Genesis 26:4-5)

Reconciliation in Christianity isn't the same with the world. Only Jesus Christ brought back what humanity lost after the FALL - God's Kingdom (Spiritual and Personal relationship).
I told you Abraham and other old testament saints looked forward to Christ's sacrifice and the cordial relationship Abraham had with God was because of his FAITH in God which resulted in obedience. The covenant God had with Abraham and his descendants from Isaac was a type and pointer to the covenant He now has with genuine Christians - both based on FAITH (through OBEDIENCE TO THE LAW in the former and through GRACE in the latter).

You wrote;


"The FALLen nature of man caused a disconnect between him and his Creator because the spirit has become dead to God so that the natural man can only resort to his own mind(part of the soul) to connect to God through religion, hence the need for redemption through Christ.".


My reply;

If the spirit of a natural man has become dead to God due to fallen nature of man and hence there is need for redemption through Christ, then how exactly did Old Testament saints (like Moses, Abraham and others)who have lived and died BEFORE the arrival of Christ make their reconciliation back to God during their life time ? If these Children of Adam were able to make their reconciliation back to God during their life time WITHOUT redemption through Christ, then Christ is not the only way. Do you agree ?
No one was able to reconcile himself back to God before Christ. God's plan from the beginning has been to govern the earth through his regents (humans) by residing in their spirits. The Old Testament saints looked forward to the ultimate sacrifice of Jesus Christ, that's why they made continuous sacrifices for atonement which pointed towards the final and ultimate atonement made by God Himself in the Person of Jesus Christ. God could only communicate and work through the Old Testament saints by physical manifestations and revelations because His Spirit couldn't yet live in them. The Spirit of God is now available to anyone who believes in Christ as the Lord and Saviour - Ezekiel 36:26,27

But if Paul's assertion is really true, why would God of reason ( see Isaiah 1:18) ask a natural man to believe and accept a fundamental spiritual doctrine that cannot be understood by him ( 1st Corinthians 2:14 ) and completely foolish to his logical reasoning especially when that reasoning is the ONLY INSTRUMENT at his disposal to recognize that true spirituality in the midst of many fake spiritualities?

If there is only one spirituality in the entire world of human being, then Paul may be right in his claim. But there are many spiritualities like Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, Judaism, Confucianism, Jainism, Zoroastrianism, Baha’ism, Taoism and Sikhism. Since each of these spiritualities is claiming to be on the right path, it is now left for any natural man to use the only instrument ( i:e his logical reasoning) given to him by God to recognize the true spirituality in the midst of many fake spiritualities. This is exactly the reason why God must design the true spirituality in such a way that all its basic and fundamental doctrines would not be in conflict with the basic logical reasoning He bestowed upon a natural man. A fundamental true spiritual doctrine may support or be neutral to basic logical reasoning bestowed upon natural man; but they will never be in conflict with each other. How could true spirituality designed by God and basic logical reasoning originated from the same God be in conflict with each other? If they can be in conflict with each other, then how can a natural man decide whether to accept or reject a true spiritual faith in the midst of many fake spiritual faiths?

Have you now seen how Paul got it wrong by asserting that “the natural man does not receive the things of the spirit, for they are foolishness to him”? Is true spirituality not meant to be accepted and embraced by natural man? Now that it is foolishness to him; how is he going to accept and embrace it?

God created man to relate with Him through his spirit only (intuition, communion and conscience). The FALLen nature of man caused a disconnect between him and his Creator because the spirit has become dead to God so that the natural man can only resort to his own mind(part of the soul) to connect to God through religion, hence the need for redemption through Christ. A regenerated man can connect with his Father through his reborn spirit because Christ has made the way for him. The mind of a regenerated and redeemed man conforms to the discernment in his spirit, that's why he understands spiritual realities the natural mind can't.
Our God is an Omniscient Being who created us to be like Him, yet He is never like us because our mind is finite. God requires the full cooperation of our soul (mind, emotions and volition) to relate with us - the soul must be subject to the spirit in order to understand and experience spiritual realities from God, that's the kind of relationship He wants, not a religious one.

The natural man only needs a relationship based on FAITH with God through CHRIST to comprehend spiritual stuffs.

The blood of Jesus is enough to justify anyone who believes in Christ's death and resurrection. You can't do anything to be holy or be right with God, only FAITH in Christ's finished work can justify us and make us righteous before God (Romans 5:1) - that's GRACE.
But grace isn't a license to continue sinning, but should propel us to do the work of righteousness through the power of the indwelling Spirit of God.

Religion / Re: I Have Repented More Than 100times Yet I Keep Commiting Immorality I Need Help by UceeGod: 12:46pm On Jul 09, 2019
A genuine repentance is that feeling of emptiness and horror because of what you did or keep doing. A fake repentance is that feeling of horror or fear for God's judgement because of what you did or keep doing. It's only the Spirit of God in a regenerated man that can bring about a genuine repentance, so I'll advise you make way for the Holy Spirit to truly cleanse you by the blood of Jesus and start dwelling in you.
The fruit of the indwelling Holy Spirit is a genuine repentance and continuous SELF-denial (sanctification).
You didn't become born again by yourself but by FAITH, so if you must experience victory over SIN & SELF, you can't do it by yourself, but only by FAITH in the Christ's victory over SIN on the cross. When you have this FAITH, then you'll be able to reckon yourself really dead to the power and control of SIN (Romans 6:11, 14), so SIN can no longer dominate you but only the Holy Spirit of Christ who has dominion over you.

I actually experienced this sort of thing way back but I wasted many years looking for deliverance instead of God's Presence. Your goal should moving closer to God EVERYDAY - that was what I failed to do back then.
How do you move closer to God and walk with Him everyday? It's more than believing in Christ as your Lord and Saviour, it's more than claiming born again, it's more than going to church and participating actively in religious activies. If you believe you are born again, then believe you have the Holy Spirit in you to instruct, guide and comfort you at every point in time, but you really have to abide in His Word (daily Bible study), take your spiritual life seriously (your intuition and personal fellowship with God through worship and prayer).
When you are in God's Presence, your focus will be redirected towards God and everything that has to do with Him, not on what you think is your problem.
I started experiencing spiritual attacks in my last year in high school, I spent many years getting sick, going for surgeries, getting involved in accidents and complete stagnation in life but I never knew I have been delivered over 2000 years ago, that was why I was looking for deliverance everywhere. When I began following Christ in TRUTH and in SPIRIT, I stopped going to church and concentrated on my relationship with God personally, I listened to sermons online by different foreign ministers and read quite a lot of Christian books. My spiritual life has been a huge blessing and has never remained the same.

Let everyone get prepared for the greatest shock in the history of man on this planet. Atheism is about to take over and shutdown all religious centers in the world! Revelations 17:15-17

The last prophesy to be fulfilled before Jesus strikes all evildoers down! Revelations 19:19-21 embarassed
There's no shock to be prepared for, nothing is going to happen that we haven't seen before. All that's happening will only bring out the best out of the body of Christ. Let the purification go on!

What's the intent of God for creating the world, (maybe the galaxy and space yonder too), mankind? And the pain, stuggles, and issues we all face--what are they for? Only to meet death at the end?

Is there something/some things we are to do while here? And if there is, that too - what's the reason for it?

Or everything is just without a purpose (which is contrary to who God is)?

I'd like answers or some explanations from the Bible alone and from Christians.

I want to make it as short as possible
God created a good world and created a good man with His characteristics to take care of the world in His behalf.
Think of a King who has another territory far away and then places a regent to govern that territory for Him.
The plan was (and still is) for man to depend completely on God in order to effectively carry out this purpose - taking care of the world the way God wants. Now God is a Spirit and the created man is also a spirit that has a soul (mind, emotions and will) and a body to contact the world which he lives. As long as the man (through his spirit) continues to relate regularly with God, His purpose (and man's WORK to dominate the earth) will be effective. Man's spirit can only relate with God by intuition, conscience and communion, the soul of the man is meant to take instructions from the spirit and the body is meant to carry out what has been deposited on the soul by the spirit if man is to effectively carry out God's purpose on earth. The three spiritual functions can only be actualized in Eden (God's Presence). But Satan succeeded in deceiving man into rebellion against God and man lost Eden so man could no longer relate effectively with God and His purpose was put on hold for some time until redemption.
When man lost Eden, the result was that man could no longer relate with God through his spirit so the spirit became dead to God. Man had to resort to religion in order to contact God. Moreover, the soul became subject to the body instead of the spirit. Satan uses this advantage to continue to entice man into rebellion against God and do exactly opposite what God purposed for him - disorganize and destroy the earth.
God has redeemed humanity from the chaos he inflicted upon himself and from the bondage of Satan through the life, death and resurrection of His incarnate Son - Jesus Christ. But the redemption will be fully realized after His second coming. Unfortunately, not all humans are (or will be) part of this redemption, only people who have FAITH in Christ will be.

We don't do "Bible alone", or "from Christians" here.
We do from "human beings" instead.
Unfortunately for you, the Bible is the only book that has answers to her questions. The Bible is manual for effective earthly existence for humans, provided you have the right understanding.
