Christianity EtcRe: Why Did Jesus Had To Wait For 30 Long Years by vickyO(f): 11:07am On Dec 02, 2013
jdilight: Jesus began his ministry after 30 long years.

Why did he had to wait that long before going to do the job he came to earth to do in the first place.

30 year no be beans, it is a long time to wait. What do you think?
His ways are not our ways. That was His plan, we shouldn't question it.

macof: One question
Are u Jewish?
Because in the Bible, tithing is part of Jewish traditions as an African u have no business wit Jewish laws.
I didn't quote from the Old Testament. Christ said we should.
Are you a Christian?

Christianity EtcRe: How Did Mary The Mother Of Jesus Know by vickyO(f): 10:59am On Dec 02, 2013
jdilight: This likely is a good opinion than she knew from prophecy or being told by angels.

The last statement of mary hints that she had missed some miracles simply because she didn't pay attention to doing what he had told her to do.
I don't understand your point.
Christianity EtcRe: This Matter Of Keeping (jewish) Laws In Christianity. by vickyO(op): 10:57am On Dec 02, 2013
okeyxyz: Nice piece, except that this part does not actually give an answer as to how we shall now conduct ourselves given that we are no longer under the law:



So what is the holy spirit then if we are to be led by it? This holy spirit firstly is the doctrine/knowledge that we are free from the definitions(of sin) and restrictions of the Law. We are absolutely free to go about our lives as we please, nothing in nature is forbidden to us, just like nothing is forbidden for God himself to do, we have become equal with the father because we have received the same spirit as him. This is what it means to be holy. It means you CANNOT be defiled(cannot sin) by anything created by God, whether food, drink, sex, clothes/fashion, music, etc. Absolutely nothing!!!. This is the will/guidance of the Holy Spirit.
I hope you believe in sin. Your definition of the Holy Spirit is wrong. The Holy Spirit is the Comforter Christ promised, He is not a doctrine. Don't get it all wrong and remember what Jesus said. IF your righteousness doesn't surpass those of the Pharisees, you can't get into heaven. Matt. 5:20
Christianity EtcRe: How Did Mary The Mother Of Jesus Know by vickyO(f): 10:49am On Dec 02, 2013
jdilight: Jesus has been performing miracles in secrets which mary witnessed and believed.
Are you okay with that?
Christianity EtcRe: If You Tithe, You Are Obligated To Keep The Whole Law! by vickyO(f): 10:48am On Dec 02, 2013
frosbel: You contradict yourself, one minute you say the law is abolished ( which includes the tithe by the way ) ,and the next minute you are preaching the law of tithe.

Which one is it, LAW or GRACE ?

And how can you say this tithe so called , is used for the Kingdoms work when 80% of the members of these clubs are dire need ?
Christ said we should. I didn't say it, Christ said it.
That's why we should be beware of wolves in sheep clothing.

In summary, abstain from worldliness.
So your definition of worldliness is wearing trousers, earrings and make up? How knowledgeable!
Christianity EtcRe: How Did Mary The Mother Of Jesus Know by vickyO(f): 10:39am On Dec 02, 2013
jdilight: The angel didn't tell her Jesus could do miracle, did he?
I said the angel told her who Jesus was. And from the prophecies of old you'd see that this Saviour promised is indeed great. Read Luke 1
To explain further,
Mary also knew He could perform miracles because he actually did.
Living Translation
John2:4
In response to Mary's request, He said, "I can't help you now, it isn't yet my time for miracles."
In vs. 11
"This miracle at Cana in Galilee was Jesus' first public demonstration of his heaven-sent power. And his disciples believed that he really was the Messiah."
That means he had bee performing miracles before that day.

I wonder how GOD can lead a person into all the false doctrines you keep propagating here. Sorry God does not lead into error.

You may have a zeal for God but be deceived at the same time , check up.

Christianity EtcRe: How Did Mary The Mother Of Jesus Know by vickyO(f): 10:04am On Dec 02, 2013
jdilight: How did mary the mother of Jesus knew that jesus could turn water in wine.

John 2 : 3 - 5

"And when they ran out of wine, the mother of jesus said to him, they have no wine.

Jesus said to her, woman what does your concern have to do with me? my hour has not yet come.

His mother said to the servants, whatever he says to you, do it".
Because she knew who he was. The angel told her, go figure.
Christianity EtcRe: If You Tithe, You Are Obligated To Keep The Whole Law! by vickyO(f): 10:02am On Dec 02, 2013
frosbel: No, you should not tithe grin

Btw, did you know that all the tithes mentioned here were food products and nothing to do with cash !
I don't farm, the only income I get is money. Yes, we should tithe. It's for the Kingdom's work. And the blessings of God concerning tithing still stands (if you want it).

Happy birthday..
Christianity EtcRe: If You Tithe, You Are Obligated To Keep The Whole Law! by vickyO(f): 9:49am On Dec 02, 2013
Living translation
Matthew 23:23
"Yes, woe upon you, Pharisees, and you other religious leaders-hypocrites! For you tithe down to the last mint leaf in your garden, but ignore the important things-justice and mercy and faith. Yes, you should tithe, but you shouldn't leave the more important things undone."
Christ said we should tithe, and that's under the new covenant.

haibe: Yes no bitterness of any sort, the brother is just one of those matured and loving christians I have met, I guess he is convinced now as regards this issue because he called me some days back saying I enlightened him as regards the trousers issue.
That's just beautiful.

Nomski0: I love this! Very mature arguement....and kinda funny. grin grin
Yeah it is. Anger or resentment was not shown. How I wish all Christians could converse like this.
Christianity EtcRe: Women Wearing Trousers: Conversation With A Brother by vickyO(f): 9:27am On Dec 02, 2013
This truth you've spoken here is what most Christians need to hear so that we can move on to a higher level of spirituality instead of dwelling on what to do and what not to do. I'm following and patiently waiting for the opposers of this truth.

Amen.
Christianity EtcThis Matter Of Keeping (jewish) Laws In Christianity. by vickyO(op): 9:20am On Dec 02, 2013
Are the Jewish laws the way of salvation? Are Christians obligated to keep them? Is it really necessary? Can it take us to heaven? Does keeping it make God more pleased with us?

This issue even arose in the Bible among the Christians in Galatia. Christians among them were including the Jewish laws into the salvation plan for us from God which is apparent in Christianity today.

Obeying the Jewish laws and Christianity doesn’t go hand in hand. If we were to be saved by keeping Jewish laws then there would have been no need for Christ to die to make us right with God.

The Holy Spirit isn’t received by keeping the Jewish laws but by believing. The Jews by obeying these laws never had a spiritual life (that is they never received the Holy Ghost or performed miracles), so it makes no sense to say keeping them will make us stronger Christians. Abraham’s real children are all men of faith who fully trust in God. Abraham was declared fit for heaven by God only because he believed God’s promises. The only way we can be right with God is by faith because we cannot keep all the laws (and a curse is on anyone who doesn’t keep all). Christ has bought us out from under the doom of that impossible system by taking the curse for our wrong doing upon Himself. So why should Christians cling to what they’ve been freed from?

Why were the laws then given you may ask? The laws were added after the promise was given to Abraham; to show men how guilty they are of breaking God’s laws. But this system of law was to last only until the coming of Christ, the Child to whom God’s promise was. So then, are God’s law and God’s promises against each other? Of course not! If we could be saved by His laws, then He would not have had to give us a different way to get out of the grip of sin. The law was our guide until Christ came to give us a right standing with God.
Many Christians then say, ‘Okay, if they say we are not meant to keep these laws, how do we live a righteous life?’ In the book of Galatians 5:16, we are to obey only the instructions of the Holy Spirit. He is our new guide and will always tell us what to do and what not. When you’re guided by the Holy Spirit, you need no longer to force yourself to obey Jewish laws. If we are now living under the power of the Holy Spirit, we should follow his leading in every path of our lives. Then we won’t need to look for honours and popularity, which lead to jealousy and hard feelings.

Those teachers who try to convince you to keep Jewish laws are doing it for one reason: so that they can be popular and avoid the persecution they would get if they admitted that the cross of Christ alone can save. And the problem is they don’t keep all but instead pick the ones they like, preach about it and then boast about the followership they get. Read Galatians 6.

So to all those on Naira land and Men of God preaching Laws: Do not eat snail or unclean animals, do not wear trouser, make up and blah,keep the Sabbath, circumcise your male, and the likes, you better stop putting people in bondage. Instead pray for the mighty dispensation of the Holy Spirit upon believers who will show them the right path to pleasing God.
SHALOM!
