AntiChristian:
Where is the explanation in all these?

How does this explain physical and Spiritual death please?

AntiChristian:
When Jesus was asked about the adulteress why didn't he judge by the established set of rules in the Torah?

MaxInDHouse:
Why do true Christians stay away from politics?

MaxInDHouse:
When discussing about God most people have concluded that He a Mystery but is that the truth?

Jesus told his disciples to preach and teach about God's Kingdom this may seem to be meaningless but let's reason intellectually.
Imagine you are sent to campaign for a presidential candidate before an election then someone said:
"You don't have to mention the character of the so called candidate all you need to do is just campaign for him."
How can you convince prospective voters that your preferred candidate merits their support?

MaxInDHouse:
So after a careful reading, diligent study, thorough meditation we can say the holy spirit could be defined as God's active force which He uses in many ways to accomplish His purposes.

AntiChristian:
Na you dey interpret as you like. Jesus suppose explain the types of death in the Bible.

MaxInDHouse:
The Bible talks about two different covenants:

[1] The first covenant is the one God had with the nation of Israel, Moses is the mediator of that covenant and it was to lead this nation to the Christ so until the arrival of the Christ that covenant remains valid. Deuteronomy 18:18-19

[2] The second covenant is the one God had with the followers of Christ this is the last and most important covenant as it was established to lead all adherents to everlasting life. John 3:16

Jesus made it clear to his disciples that if they want to live forever in Paradise they must return to the arrangement God made in the beginning which is One Adam One Eve! Matthew 19:4

So all those who lived before Christ came to establish the second covenant were declared righteous for living by the first covenant but from the moment John the baptist started preparing for the arrival of Christ things changed {Matthew 11:12} and righteousness can only be achieved by following the teachings of Christ which leads to everlasting life.

That's why first century disciples of Christ always insist on one wife before ordaining any pagan as overseer in the congregation of Christ {1Timothy 3:2; Titus 1:6} Jewish Christians already know they mustn't marry more than one wife after Malachi has warned them against polygamy {Malachi 2:14} and we should not forget that Malachi was sent to tell them how they should prepare for the coming of the Christ {Malachi 3:1} this is the one who will show them the highway to holiness {Isaiah 35:8} that's why Jesus said he is the Way! John 14:6

So polygamy was permitted before Christ but by the time Jesus walked the earth repentant Jews no longer practice polygamy that's why you can't hear of any disciple of Christ or first century Jews having more than one wife because they believed Malachi's message as a preparation for the way of holiness! Malachi 4:5

God bless you and may you have peace!

Dtruthspeaker:
Stop talking rubbish.

Moses was in the presence of God, so common sense would have told you that if Moses's wife was tired of walking with him, he would have reported the matter to God and that God discussed the problem with him.

So, in the end that we see zipporah walk away from her marriage that should tell you that Moses got his divorce sanctioned directly by God Himself. And his remarriage also.

Compare with Abraham who took wives even after Sarah's death and we see that God never spoke to him again upto the point that Abraham noticed and then drove everyone of them away.

So don't bring your paganism and heatheness into Christianity

Kobojunkie:
What you said makes no sense given what is contained in the Gospel.

2. This other statement also makes no sense.

MaxInDHouse:
God's organized people, light of the world!

MaxInDHouse:
I wonder why you people failed to make zealous preachers and industrious teachers of the word of your God like the JWs.
With all your arguments your folks remain unserious with the assignment Jesus gave his disciples only JWs are up and doing throughout the earth. Matthew 7:16-18

Janosky:
JW's stick to Jesus Christ model of worship @ John 3:16, @Matthew 4:10 @ John 4:24 you & your mentors labeled "Arianism. "

@Matthew 4:10 @ John 4:24,Did Jesus teach you Westerhoffe to worship 3 spirits?

Oga you are deceiving yourself.

You are mistakened. When the world is run by gays and softies, Islam will be the only thing that can save it.

SIRTee15:
Man is a spirit that dwells in a body with a soul.

Now are U saying that's the same for God?

Are U saying God is a spirit with a body?

I relate U with Jehovah witness because they are ones that claim God has a body in order to deny the deity of Christ.

Spinflow:
You are very funny...God said...so these Chinese printed documents from your slave master is now your God. Africa is a forest.

SIRTee15:
Let me ask u 2 questions.

1. are u Jehovah witness?

2. Does God have a body?

Devil no touch Job wife for una bible ooo. Na Job, him children and business, na dem suffer. Since 2010, anybody wey you marry, na either hook-up or entitled narcissist.

Spinflow:
you and rat poison na the same....

SIRTee15:
Then if God is a spirit, how can he have a face?

If God is a spirit, how can he be seen by John sitting on a physical throne?

If God is outside time and space, how can he sit on a throne. U need space to sit down my friend.

See as U are contradicting yourself up and down.

John himself said he was taken to heaven in the spirit, he didn't go to heaven physically.

Revelation 1
On the Lord’s Day I was in the Spirit, and I heard behind me a loud voice like a trumpet,


His vision was presented to him as anthropomorphism.

This is what Paul has to say about status of God in heaven.


1 Timothy 6.16
He alone is immortality, and he lives in light so brilliant that no human can approach him. No human eye has ever seen him, nor ever will. All honor and power to him forever! Amen.

So if U are telling me God visited U and saw his face physically in your revelation, I don't know what to say but it seems U are calling the scripture false.

This is what John himself u claim went to heaven physically has to say about visibility status of God.


John 1
18 No one has ever seen God, but the one and only Son, who is himself God and is in closest relationship with the Father, has made him known.


A lot of U need lesson on bible theology, serious bible lesson.

I repeat Your personal testament is your own truth. Nothing more than that.

SIRTee15:
My friend, your testimony is a subjective evidence. It's your own truth.

We want objective evidence here which is what's written in the scripture.

U were the one who brought the issue of people sitting on a throne in the first place. And I asked U, how many people are sitting on the throne since we both agreed there's only one throne.

It's funny U making reference to space and matter to nullify why 2 people can't sit on a throne.
What U are ignorant of is that for any person to sit on the throne in the first place, U need space and matter.

Without space and matter, U can't sit on a throne or anything at all. Space is what enables U to sit down.

That's why I told U to go and read anthropomorphism.

John was taking to heaven in the spirit. What he wrote down was a vision, it was not a direct sight seeing.
Nobody is sitting on a physical throne in heaven.

Throne in heaven simply means highest level of majesty while face of God means his glory.
