Christianity EtcRe: If You Say Nonsense About Me, I'll Take Your Picture To My Altar - Odumeje by Westerhoffe(m): 7:59am On Feb 14, 2024
The statement already reeks cultist's threat.

What altar do you have where you kill people?

This is what JESUS CHRIST said:

Matthew 5 (KJV)
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
¹¹ Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.
¹² Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.


But here you are, threatening to kill…

Please, step aside… you're not even a prophet of GOD anyway… so I expect nothing from you.

There are many Gods and Lords says the Bible! 1Corinthians 8:5

So it's the name that distinguish each not the capital letters or lower case that's why God's word said:

"For all the peoples will walk, each in the name of its god, But we will walk in the name of Jehovah our God forever and ever" Micah 4:5

If you're insisting on the translators that omit God's personal name in their versions i will never ever agree with you because a NAME totally differs from a TITLE.

Let a million translators render that word with LORD i will tell you all of them are wrong with their translations {Exodus 23:1-2} because that verse is self explanatory! smiley
"There are many 'gods and lords' in the Bible."

And this is what Micah 4:5 said, and I quote:

“For all people will walk every one in the name of his god, and we will walk in the name of the LORD our God for ever and ever.”
— Micah 4:5 (KJV)

If the Bible say "NAME" and you don't know it's meaning then there is nothing further to discuss because LORD is a title and not a name. That's why i referred you to the preface of all Bible versions so that you can figure out why these people refused to make use of God's personal name instead of titles like Lord and God but since you joked with it i also like jokes so let the jokes continue. wink
So, you know who I have been talking about is GOD and you keep arguing unreasonably? That's disgusting of your ignorance and pretense.

And… I've known from Day 1 of this discussion that you never even know your Bible, not to talk of my version yet because just as I said, your version had been corrupted and edited to confuse folks like you and prevent them from figuring, knowing, and seeing the Truth.

You said you referred to me a Preface of the Bible!? Really? How does that sound to you?

Was the Preface part of the Bible?
Were all Prefaces of the Bible versions the same?


You see why you should go learn more but first dispose of that thing you have in your hand and go get a better version you'd see through easily and more clearly?

They followed the translations and called GOD "LORD, GOD, ALMIGHTY" because they knew the name of the LORD must be 'hallowed'. Do you see that? 'Hallowed' and not mentioned like you're talking about a mere person.

There are no jokes here man… you just keep saying things that do not relate to the topic in your attempts to explain yourself.

Now let me help you out.


All through until Moses, the real name of GOD was not known, but GOD made Himself known to them as the LORD GOD ALMIGHTY. But the LORD GOD ALMIGHTY revealed this name to Moses:

Exodus 6 (KJV)
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
² And God spake unto Moses, and said unto him, I am the LORD:
³ And I appeared unto Abraham, unto Isaac, and unto Jacob, by the name of God Almighty, but by my name JEHOVAH was I not known to them.


But do you think that GOD must have told Abraham at some point, but which Abraham didn't take note of, or possibly he kept a sealed lip to keep the name 'hallowed'?
See this:

“And Abraham called the name of that place 'JEHOVAHJIREH': as it is said to this day, In the mount of the LORD it shall be seen.”
— Genesis 22:14 (KJV)


And what did you see there?
Even the "name" there means "LORD".


Here is why your connection to the One you call upon as the LORD GOD matters. On whom your eyes and heart are fixated.
So my friend, let's wait until we meet CHRIST JESUS in His kingdom in Heaven… for then shall we know the "NAME" of the LORD GOD ALMIGHTY.

“Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my new name.”
— Revelation 3:12 (KJV)


And did you see there that JESUS CHRIST did not still mention the 'exact' name of GOD there in the quoted above?

That should ring a bell.

Finally he responds. Now let's delve back into the discussion.

Mark 12 (KJV)
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
³⁰ And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment.
³¹ And the second is like, namely this, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater than these.

Deuteronomy 6 (KJV)
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
⁴ Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD:
⁵ And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might.


“After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.”
— Matthew 6:9 (KJV)

Acts 2 (KJV)
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
³⁴ For David is not ascended into the heavens: but he saith himself, The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou on my right hand,
³⁵ Until I make thy foes thy footstool.

“(Psalm of David.) The LORD said unto my Lord, Sit thou at my right hand, until I make thine enemies thy footstool.”
— Psalms 110:1 (KJV)


Now tell me, do you see the perversion in your version of the Bible?

MaxInDHouse

You got to come back to realize that:

Only those who do not know the One True Living GOD will make the comments you make about the name of GOD.

If you know who your dad is, and you stand before those who know him as well, you don't need to call him by his name before they know who you're talking about when you mention, "My Dad…"… they know who you're talking about already.

But when you stand before those who do not know your dad, even if you mention his full name, they still don't know him and may never know him until you go back to where he is, bring him before them to show him to them.


You asking me of the name of the One True Living LORD GOD ALMIGHTY shows you do not know Him.

Because if you know Him, you won't have asked again when you read One True Living LORD GOD ALMIGHTY.

MaxInDHouse, hallow the name of GOD the FATHER as JESUS CHRIST the Son taught us to… and stop calling His name anyhow without respect according to your erroneous and misleading version of the Bible.

Christianity EtcRe: Did God Approved The Uses Of Familiar Spirit by Westerhoffe(m): 9:00pm On Feb 11, 2024
Kobojunkie:
Not all humans acquire a spirit in this life. As Jesus Christ Himself explained in the Gospel, the only life a person obtains from his or her mother's womb is a physical(non-spiritual) life. It is only those who go on to become born-again in this life(Born of Water AND born of Spirit - John 3 vs 1 - 8) — and of course the righteous of Old Law of Moses (Deuteronomy 30 vs 15 - 20) — that obtain a spiritual aspect to their being. All others simply do not and so cease to exist when they die as decreed by God in Genesis 3 vs 16 - 24) where God Himself indicated that man did not have Eternal Life from his beginning— Adam failed to acquire it. undecided
Every human born into the world has a spirit. It is this spirit that makes the person a living soul. Without the spirit, that person remains in sleep mode for as long as the spirit is absent.

This is why JESUS CHRIST said:

“It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.”
— John 6:63 (KJV)


There JESUS CHRIST compared His Words to the 'spirit'.
Christianity EtcRe: Did God Approved The Uses Of Familiar Spirit by Westerhoffe(m): 8:56pm On Feb 11, 2024
Kobojunkie:
God condemns lying yet it is possible to lie even against a prophet. I don't know the particular reason why God allowed the Spirit of Samuel to come up at that point. My guess is that God wanted to have that prophesy against Sault made known and it had to be done by one of His own. undecided

However, an important question to ask here is this. Do all who die have spirits that can be invoked by those like the witch of Endor? the Scriptural answer to that question is a No. Samuel had a Spirit because he was and died a prophet of God. King Saul who later died, died a sinner and hence without a spirit. undecided
There is a difference between the 'soul' and 'spirit'.
What the witch summoned of Samuel was his 'soul' not 'spirit'.

For once a man dies, his spirit returns to GOD who gave it. But the soul, the real you is what goes to wherever he/she had lived to spend their end.

“Then shall the dust return to the earth as it was: and the spirit shall return unto God who gave it.”
— Ecclesiastes 12:7 (KJV)


This is why you see the souls of those who had died (not their spirit) whether in Heaven or Hell.

“For thou wilt not leave my soul in hell; neither wilt thou suffer thine Holy One to see corruption.”
— Psalms 16:10 (KJV)

“And when he had opened the fifth seal, I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held:”
— Revelation 6:9 (KJV)

Though what baffled me was why the woman was able to call up the spirit of Samuel but like you said it's a grave mistake that king Saul made
The spirit of Samuel was not in Heaven but in Hell as at that time.
Necromancers can interact with the dead… a thing of abomination before GOD.

There are still necromancers today. But GOD is against its practice.

GOD did not approve of it.

Here is what GOD said about them in the Bible:


“Regard not them that have familiar spirits, neither seek after wizards, to be defiled by them: I am the LORD your God.”
— Leviticus 19:31 (KJV)

“And the soul that turneth after such as have familiar spirits, and after wizards, to go a whoring after them, I will even set my face against that soul, and will cut him off from among his people.”
— Leviticus 20:6 (KJV)


“A man also or woman that hath a familiar spirit, or that is a wizard, shall surely be put to death: they shall stone them with stones: their blood shall be upon them.”
— Leviticus 20:27 (KJV)

Deuteronomy 18 (KJV)
¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯
¹¹ Or a charmer, or a consulter with familiar spirits, or a wizard, or a necromancer.
¹² For all that do these things are an abomination unto the LORD: and because of these abominations the LORD thy God doth drive them out from before thee.


Saul did that because GOD stopped talking to him and he wanted to know before going to the battle. But he made a grave mistake consulting with a witch before dying.
