Jesus Said You Should Stop Using Perfumes — Female Preacher Warns Christians

A female preacher has warned against the use of perfumes, stating that Jesus said Christians should stop applying it.
The video which seems to be making the rounds online captures the moment a preacher vehemently warned against the use of sweet smelling substances on the body.

Driving her point home, she backed her claim with a portion of the bible, Isaiah 3 verse 24, as she affirmed that on the last day, people who use perfumes will be burning and stinking like gutter.

In her words:
“Those of you putting perfume, Jesus said you should stop putting perfume on your body. On the last day in Isaiah 3 verse 24 instead of sweet smell, you’ll be burning and you’ll be stinking, you’ll be smelling like gutter”.

No you need to check your theology. practice taking the scriptures for what it says pls

edmaraja:
So what of Enoch and Elijah who didn't die but were transformed and lifted into heaven?

petra1:


No nawn. . .The Bible teaches about being caught up alive bodily. . . Remember Paul was expecting the rapture "caught up" in his own generation

1 Thessalonians 4:17 (
17 Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.

Sweet!


This is not true because The Law is - God can not be Mocked, You Must Reap what you Sow.

If you plant evil, you must get evil and nothing will stop it.



This is also not True, For The Law in Ezekiel 18 has Settled this.

Without The Omniscient, Science Would Be Silent

What is science?

According to the Collins dictionary, Science is the study of the nature and behaviour of natural things and the knowledge that we obtain about them.

It's this same knowledge that is obtained via studying the nature and behavior of natural things that is applied for science to be able to replicate or reproduce the same or similar results.

This proves that without the study of the nature and behavior of natural things, science wouldn't be able to achieve any of such results. So science needs the natural things to be able to produce anything.

The "natural things' in question essentially refers to the creation of God, however the consequent results achieved by science via its study is what some yet believe provides the most valid basis to deny the existence of God. However, little do they know that whenever they did so, they're actually achieving the exact opposite, because science itself is a proof of God's existence, for without God who is the source of the creation from whence science obtains its knowledge, science could do nothing.

So science itself is actually a student in God's school, a researcher in God's field, trying to study and learn from God's creation, so that it could unravel the methods and applications of God, to enable it replicate or apply the acquired knowledge accordingly.

The ability of science is restricted to the extent to which it has learnt from God's school, and the recent instance of Covid-19 exposed its limitations and showed that despite the many results it has achieved, that science still had a lot to learn.

Even the little knowledge that science had been able to acquire from its study of God's creation wouldn't have been possible had God hidden the knowledge and not made it accessible. For then, studying God's creation would have been a futile venture, but God did not hide it but made it accessible as in the instance of the tree of knowledge of good and evil in the garden of Eden (Genesis 2:9), which made it possible to obtain knowledge from God's creation via study.

Daniel 12:4 (KJV)

But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.

God the Creator is the one who determines how much knowledge is accessible via His creation at any point in time, hence His saying that at the end time, 'knowledge shall increase", which is exactly what is playing out at this time. However God ensured that the increase in knowledge was spearheaded by the obedient as they were distinguished from their rebelliousness peers. Therefore despite that science produces many rebellious scientists, the greatest scientists that the world has ever known were God's.

* Noah built an ark (cargo ship) in accordance with the Lord's instructions, and age-for-age it is by far the greatest technological masterpiece the world has ever seen. Genesis 6:14-16

* Joseph the son of Jacob, was considered the wisest man in the land of ancient Egypt, the first ever world power and one of the first civilizations on Earth. He engineered a means (Egyptian pyramids) to store and preserve food for seven full years without power supply, which was able to cater for the whole of humanity and crucially preserve their lives during the severe Earthwide famine that lasted for seven consecutive years. Genesis 41:33-44

* The scientists' quartet of Daniel, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, were found to "ten times better" than all their fellow scientists, in ancient Mesopotamia, the first civilization on Earth. It was during their time that the famous "hanging gardens" which is regarded to be the greatest wonder of the ancient world was built for King Nebuchadnezzar in the ancient city of Babylon. Daniel 1:17-20

* There is also the instance of Isaac Newton of the modern world, who is considered to be the greatest and most influential scientist of all time.

These given Instances among others illustrate how God used the obedient to sparehead the increase of knowledge He foretold concerning the end time, because it was these pillars of science that form the basis of the increase of knowledge we see today.

Yet today, credit for the increase of knowledge was being ignorantly abscribed to science instead of God the one who made it possible. However God has shown overtime that He always had a way of puncturing that illusion wherever the need arises, as in the instance of the Covid-19 pandemic which exposed the limitations of science, and showed that science was just a student of the Omniscient's school, and that without Him science would be silent.

But this is just the beginning, because there are many more to come and it would not stop until the day credit is rightfully given where credit is due.

God bless Nigeria.

You see what I just said? You just lied. This wasn't a "copy and paste" post...I wrote it myself

OpenYourEyes1:


Believe in the word of GOD. JESUS is the Word Of GOD.

Wakeupchristian:
The subject of Christ’s Mission on earth which is a foundational teaching in the Christian religion has created a lot of setbacks for many people who do not understand it aright. For their lack of understanding, these people have frittered away valuable time that would have been spent cleaning up the dirt that have clung to their spiritual garments as a result of their activities. For this reason, this teaching has become a necessity.

Many organized religions who proclaim the perfection of the Almighty God often times deny this perfection in their tenets. With particular reference to Christianity, several inconsistencies exist between our profession and our actual conviction. Some of the songs we sing in church for example, attest to God’s perfection, therefore greatness, but it’s sad to say, that the conclusions we draw from the holy scriptures belittle such greatness. In other words, they do not give God the honor of perfection.

One of such conclusions is on the Mission of the Son of God on earth. The conventional belief that the primary reason why Jesus Christ came to earth was to sacrifice Himself for the redemption of mankind is erroneous. Unfortunately, this erroneous belief has been handed down by the church from one generation to another. It has eaten deep into the marrow of the church in such a way that whoever dares to initiate a correction is regarded as an antichrist. And rather than take time to examine the scriptures for themselves, many Christians prefer to adopt the conventional interpretations which originated from those whose initial intent was to put them to sleep in order to achieve their selfish desires. With these interpretations they assume they know everything, and they become conceited in such a way that they get completely walled in within. As a result, they cannot open up to receive any form of external help, neither can they listen to their intuition, the voice of the spirit which occasionally sends them cautioning signals. This is indolence of the spirit!

It is not different from the time of Christ when the religious leaders assumed they had adequate knowledge of the word of God and therefore did not require any further enlightenment. Instead of paying attention to the Son of God and making efforts to examine the message He brought, they fought against Him. Little wonders the Lord said except we become like little children, we cannot enter the kingdom of heaven (Matthew 18:3).

Little children are not conceited. They are humble, free and open minded. They know almost nothing and are always willing to learn. Therefore, to become like children means among other things, to put aside all that we think we know, to be open and to objectively examine the Word for ourselves. Whoever does not wish to fulfill this admonition cannot ascend to the realms of Light.

The fact that the Son of God came to earth in order to save man from his sins is absolute. But truth is, that the salvation plan has been very dimly understood. This is because the church has over the years failed to separate the great Mission of Christ from His personal life.

The true Mission of Jesus Christ on earth stands separate from His personal life. In other words, it lies not in His relationships or experiences of persecutions, pains and sufferings, but in the bringing of the Word. The Son of God went through His painful experiences for the singular purpose of bringing the message of salvation to man, so that understanding it aright, he may find the way out of the darkness that had eclipsed the earth for several years as a result of his activities. Redemption and salvation therefore lie in strict adherence to the message He brought, not in His sufferings.

The fact that the prophets predicted the path which the Son of God would walk to bring enlightenment to man does not make that path His true mission. The prophets were given those revelations to declare them beforehand, so that on seeing their fulfillments, men would recognize Christ and believe His testimony. But man failed in this regard because of his conceit.

The Darkness has succeeded over the years in using renowned religious leaders to lull men to sleep by projecting Christ’s sufferings as the basis of salvation while pushing the main essence of His coming into the background. “All you have to do is believe that Jesus died for you and confess it with your mouth and you are bound for heaven”. For those who seek to hear soothing words, nothing could be better. If only they could reason a little! How can you think of ascending into the spiritual realms without any responsibility, without working on yourself, or simply put, without working out your salvation (Philippians 2:12)? Christ’s pure teachings are the direct words He uttered and nothing more. They show us the simple path to salvation devoid of any third party interpretations. If we make efforts to follow this simple path, we work out our salvation.

You have to understand, that the direct words the Son of God spoke presented His word as the basis of salvation not His death. According to Matthew, Christ reportedly said He came to give His life as a ransom for many (Matthew 20:28). Again at His farewell meal with His disciples, He said His blood is shed for many, for the remission of sin (Matthew 26:28). Many Christians draw wrong conclusions from these scriptures. They literally view them as an entitlement to live recklessly. So they consciously sow corrupt seeds and expect to reap bountiful harvests of blessings because “Jesus died for them”. A woman who knew she was about doing what was wrong said, “when I finish I will kneel down and ask God to forgive me. Jesus shed His blood for me”. Ignorance! Such people need to understand that just as every household is governed by rules made by the house owner, so Creation, which is the household of God is governed by unchangeable rules made by the Creator Himself. We all reap what we sow. The blood of Jesus has nothing to do with this. In other words, it does not annul the Law of Sowing and Reaping.

You have to understand, that Jesus is the embodiment of the Word of God (John 1:1, 14). The blood He made reference to while talking to His disciples signifies His flesh which symbolizes the Word. Notice that Jesus’ blood was shed for MANY, not ALL. The word many used by the Lord in the above scriptures gives His Word the first place in the plan of salvation. It represents those who will absorb the Word and make it become a part of them, not everyone. This is why Christ said only those who do the Will of His Father will enter into the kingdom of Heaven (Matthew 7:21). Again the Lord said strive to enter (Luke 13:24). To strive means to put in efforts. Efforts to know the truth and to live in accordance with it. The Lord demands good works from man not mere confessions. To your confession therefore add good works, for until you understand the Word of the Lord aright and make efforts to do what it says, your sins cannot be remitted.

Reflect over these things! Without the urgent need for enlightenment, hence liberation from the Darkness, would the Almighty Creator have sent out a part of Himself to earth just to be humiliated and killed by the very sinners He came to help? If it was actually the blood of Jesus alone that was required for the redemption of mankind, why was Herod not permitted to take His life as an infant? Perhaps that would have made things easier for Him. Again why couldn’t Christ surrender Himself earlier to the Jews when they sought to kill Him by stoning? John the beloved reported that the Lord hid Himself among the people and went out of the temple (John 8:59).

The Son of God couldn’t surrender Himself to be killed at such a time because He knew that His fundamental mission on earth had not yet been accomplished. He had not fully given out the complete message He brought. When His mission was fully accomplished, He willingly laid down His life to preserve the Word for eternity. In other words, He sealed the redemption of all those who will ever come in contact with His Word and strictly adhere to it.

Understand this aright! The Son of God was a victim of envy. He came at a time when earthly power and authority rested in the hands of oppressors who threatened with violence anyone who dared to oppose them. With the enlightenment He brought, many who were being oppressed felt liberated and followed Him massively. This did not go down well with the oppressors. To them Christ’s Mission was a threat. It naturally meant losing influence, power and the flow of income from the masses. It is no different today. Gospel ministers prefer to cover up the truth because they are afraid of losing members.

I once confronted a preacher on the trending back-to-sender prayers in church and he said, “I know what you are saying is true, but I just have to be tactical about the subject”. Why do you have to be tactical about preaching the truth? Being tactical here means you are trying to please the masses so that you can keep them perpetually in your cage. You give them what they want, not what they need. It means you are more concerned with the advancement of your selfish desires than their inner development which is the only thing that can lead them to salvation. In doing so you are making them lose valuable time that would have been used to improve themselves and escape from the judgment. If the Son of God were to be here today to tell us we are doing certain things wrong, I am sure many renowned Gospel Ministers, like the Jewish leaders of old, would not mind going against Him just to retain their influence and the flow of funds.

Christ’s death which became necessary to preserve His Word for posterity, came as a consequence of the hostility of the Jewish leaders of the time. The consequence of standing on the truth of the fact that He was the Son of God, and that the Word He spoke came from above was death. Jesus preferred to die with His conviction than go against the Will of His Father.

The erroneous belief that the Son of God came solely to die and shed His blood as a sacrifice for sins committed by men does not give God the honor of perfection. It is not consistent with God who is justice Himself. In God’s justice no one dies for the sins of another. Only the Soul that sins shall die (Ezekiel18:4). This belief contradicts the commandment “thou shall not kill”. Bear in mind that disobedience to the will of God attracts consequences. The Almighty God is too perfect to issue such commandment and then present an occasion where men would disobey it and bear the consequence. This belief is not also consistent with the natural law of sowing and reaping which was put into Creation from its earliest beginning. We must all reap what we sow (Galatians 6:7).

When we say God is perfect, it means everything that issues from Him is perfect. This includes His laws that govern the human beings and the entire Creation. Expressed in other words, they do not require adjustments or fine-tuning of any form. If you must know the truth, there is only one road to follow. The road of the perfection of God. Everything else is false, artificially created by man and intertwined with a few words from the Divine Messengers with the intention to confuse and drag men into darkness.

Beloved, if you are still inflamed with the longing for the Eternal Kingdom of God, you need to become like a child and examine the scriptures again for yourself, for whoever does not get this right is yet to begin striving for his ascent. But for you who would want to defend what you do against the truth, and who seek to hear soothing and reassuring words that put you continuously on the sleep of death, the choice has always been yours to make.

Who defeated the dragon?

See, this is why I wish people would at least try to read their Bible with their eyes open... Right there in the Vision, John tells you exactly who defeated the dragon and how. But rather than take it whole, many of you chuck aside the who and run off with the how, thinking you have bagged yourself another deity to add to the Godhead.

The angels, who would have otherwise not been able to approach the dragon beforehand, were able to defeat the dragon by the blood of the lamb, and this in a vision that John was having. John never told you that it meant Christ's apostles could now deify the blood of Jesus. Jesus never told His disciples to deify His blood... He made it known that only by HIS NAME, not His Blood, can anything be done.

MFMRevivalist:
STOP THEM BEFORE THEY STOP YOU.

Isaiah 54:17 No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is of me, saith the LORD.

The primary mission of the devil and his agents is to stop you in life by all means. They want to stop your progress, marriage, job, career, business, spiritual life etc. They want to eliminate every trace of your success in life and finally eliminate you. But today, you shall stop them before they stop you. We shall be engaging in an aggressive prayer points which is titled, stop them before they stop you prayer points. Everyone that makes an attempt on your life shall be destroyed by fire in Jesus name. Everyone that has vowed to stop your rising, shall be publicly humiliated in Jesus name. Pray this prayers with all seriousness and strong faith and you shall stop all your enemies in Jesus name.

Isaiah 54:17 tells us that we must condemn every evil tongue that rise up against us in judgement. You see, you do not overcome the devil with a closed mouth. Jesus Christ our Lord willingly gave His life for our salvation, that was why when he was led like a sheep to the slaughter, he opened not His mouth, Isaiah 53:7. If you close your mouth, you will become a sheep made for slaughter by your enemies, but when you open your mouth and release the judgement of heaven against all those that attempts to stop you, heaven will arise and stop them. The early Church in the book of Acts 12, closed there mouths and watched King Herod attack the church, and killed James the Apostle, Herod went ahead to arrest Peter, and put him in prison, awaiting execution, but the church rose up and began to pray for the rescue of Peter, that night, an Angel appeared and broke Peter out of the prison and the same angel went ahead to stop Herod by killing him. You see when you don’t stop them, they will definitely stop you. And how do you stop them? through warfare prayers. As we engage in this stop them before they stop you prayer points today, all your adversaries shall be stopped permanently in Jesus name.

well it was part of my post some people have raised their views on it already thanks for your input... U know one needs to clarify its doubt before diving into somethings. I only brought this for discussion cos it was one of the issues confusing me about christainity I didn't want to base on my own view I wanted the view of Christians to avoid misconception.

haekymbahd:
Thanks for your reply bro but is it possible to accept Christ and cast out demons, prophecy, and perform miracles in his name genuinely and still not do God's will I thought that was what Jesus was trying to say in that verse I stand to be corrected.

haekymbahd:
Matthew 7
21 Not everyone who says to Me, Lord, Lord, will enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father Who is in heaven.

22 Many will say to Me on that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name and driven out demons in Your name and done many mighty works in Your name?

23 And then I will say to them openly (publicly), I never knew you; depart from Me, you who act wickedly [disregarding My commands].(C)

24 So everyone who hears these words of Mine and acts upon them [obeying them] will be like a [p]sensible (prudent, practical, wise) man who built his house upon the rock.

Can someone explain what Jesus meant here?
And what does he meant by will of God?

I'm confused.

Gentle0wavez:
Pls brethrens, I have been going to this church for like a year now, it's a small church and it's still growing so there is a lot of demand from the leaders to go for envagelism, building projects and do many church activities all days of the week. I have been faithful but my spiritual life is beginning to drop badly. I no longer have time for myself and I have lost touch with God completely. People may say I am leaving because of the work, but God knows that my spiritual life is being strengthen nothing would make me want to leave. Do you think it's enough reason??

Is any sick among you? let him call for the elders of the church; and let them pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord: And the prayer of faith shall save the sick, and the Lord shall raise him up; and if he have committed sins, they shall be forgiven him.

Dtruthspeaker:


I am one of them and we are not "Praying" for the Wicked to Die, We Are Clearly Saying That The Wicked Shall Die and Must Die and Should Die, if they do not want to do that which is Good Alone.

They Must Die and We Agree and Allign with God, Who Himself, Hates Wickedness and Evil, That THEY MUST DIE if They Do Not Want To Be Doing Only Good.

And of course, God, Who did not Spare Mighty Angels, who were working Closely With Him, Probably See Him, And are Bigger and Higher than Man and whom, when we see them, We Greatly Fear, is it now powerless man, that God shall fear to Eternally Punish him as He Shall do to His Angels, As He Said He Shall Do?



It is Written "he who is not sick, does not require a physician". So also he who has done no Wrong, does not require Repentance.

What were the laws jesus came to fulfill?

Blackmoran:
Hi, I have always have this view about the old testament, how the teachings and stories are extreme, brutal, selfish and violent, and a lot of injustice. Examples of this was the story of job who was righteous with God but was made to suffer for doing nothing but rather to just test is faith, stories of wars Israelite taking over cities in the name of God. You know what am saying when you read the old testament its kind of barbaric a lot of sacrifice and killings for the most stupid things there is no different between the old testament and what most extreme terrorist are doing now.. In my opinion i Really think the old testament should be separated from Christian teaching. The only time we need the old testament is for the purpose of chronology and ancestry trace...

PstChrisAmadi:
The New Life In Christ:
The Power Of Prayer (Luke 18:1- 8 ):

There is a common saying that prayer changes things. That fact can never be over emphasized. But unfortunately, it is one area of God's service that has not been fully harnessed by the Church.

Both in old times and in the Apostolic era the power of prayer was one effective weapon at the disposal of people. The song writer says what needless pain we bear because we do not carry our problems to God in prayer. If the Church can rise up in unity to pray, there would be changes in our society.

So, instead of talking and criticizing, we should pray. Instead of calling for people to purchase arms for war, we should pray. Instead of being afraid and running helter skelter, we should pray. In cases of Pandemics, Misrule, Marginalization, Persecutions, Problems, Attacks, Denials and Manipulations, we have the weapon of prayer as our anchor.

In the referenced scripture, the Lord Jesus said we should not faint, but that we should pray persistently and perseveringly, like that widow, until we have our victory. Not fainting there means, don't be afraid, don't be weak and don't give up.

[b]And He spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray and not to faint (Luke 18::1). [/b]

Nehemiah prayed and he had open doors to rebuild the falling walls of Jerusalem. King Jehoshaphat and his people prayed and they stopped the invasion of the enemies. Esther and Mordecai and their people prayed and they upturned the vindictive verdict of Haman. Hezekiah prayed and he was healed. Daniel had revelations, promotions and deliverances because of his prayer life. The Church in Jerusalem prayed and Peter was miraculously released from prison.

What about me and you? What effort are we making in this regard? Remember that this is one of the questions we shall answer before God in the end. Why don't we start now to pray. God is still answering prayers. God bless you.

LordIsaac:
It is... Jesus Himself said, "no man cometh to the Father, but by me. " He is the only way... As our own mere works are but filthy rags before Him. And all, all we need do is ask Him to be our Lord and personal saviour and we become qualified. Is that too much to ask?

Trueigbo:
Yesterday my 11 year old daughter ask me a question and struggled to answer her. She said Dad since God is first and last and knows everything, why did he create us when he knows we will sin against him.

Infact i cant remember what I answered but i had to end it before she ask another question.

Biko who can help answer the question.
