Marriage is an institution and precept established by GOD, Jesus Christ preached about it, HE would have gotten married if it was part of His ministry, but it would have been a distraction.
so we shouldnt live like christ in that aspect?

Ezekiel 33:15

If the wicked restores the pledge, gives back what he has taken by robbery, and walks in the statutes of life, not doing injustice, he shall surely live; he shall not die
Interesting! undecided

Ezekiel 33 vs 10 - 20, speaks clearly of the Old Covenant standard of righteousness obviously, in much the same way as Ezekiel 18 vs 1 - 36 also does. But that ruling applies to those who are descended of the Blood of Jacob, of which us gentiles are excluded - Deuteronomy 30 vs 15 - 20. undecided

But we are called according to the New Covenant,
Jesus Christ and Jesus Christ says instead that all those who believe in Him shall not perish(die) but have everlasting life. undecided

This is a stupid question. You knew already that a Christian should not delve into that niche, but self-will would not allow u to see it even if it's as clear as daylight to you. You're just like Balaam in the book of Numbers, who having asked God whether he could curse the Israelites for Balak,got a no, still went to ask God a second time whether he could still go with Balak in order to curse them. He knew God wouldn't allow it. But because of the diviner's fee he might get he went to ask God again.

A free thinker asked: "Why is sin hereditary and salvation is not"?





For those quoting me, this is for you
Deuteronomy 5:9
" I, the Lord your God, am a jealous God, punishing the children for the fathers’ sin to the third and fourth generations"

Cause sin was free and salvation was paid.

Was Jesus Christ being foolish when He declared to you in Matthew 15 vs 10 - 20, that it is not what you eat/ingest that causes you to sin, makes you unclean of defiled you? undecided

[/b]If your father is wealth,
When you grow up you will inherit his wealth.

IF your father was wealthy but later become poor,
When you grow up you will inherit his poverty.

If now you have inherited his poverty
will you not work hard according to your ability to get your own wealth in life?[b]

Intimacy gadgets sin? Maybe yes.

Makeup, attachments, women trousers sin? Capital NO

It depends on which Church you go.
There are few churches that do not compromise the truth of word of God.

They aren't there for membership or people's money but to do the will of God 100%.
You should listen to those men of God.

"Love not the world..." 1 John 2:15

If you don't love the world, then why do you hold tight to these things and say they aren't sin?
What if you died and found out they are sin and there is no going back to amend your life?

Why do I need to read the book of Romans when God's own Law , Jesus Christ, absolutely states that everyone who believes in Him will not die but have eternal life? undecided

God's Law being absolute implies you can not add or remove from it in any way as no man has the authority to change that which God has declared. So, what exactly am I to do with whatever it is that is written in Romans? Overrule God's own law? undecided

Punishment is the same thing as sin? Since when? undecided

So given that God abolished that punishment for that sin in Ezekiel 18 vs 1 - 36, what does that mean then?

The word of God also stated that the abominable, liars, whoremongers, lascivious, drunkards.....................etc shall not inherit the kingdom of God.

TYPICAL AFRICAN MAN MENTALITY.
WHEN WILL OUR AFRICAN BRAINS OPEN AND WE KNOW THAT GOD HAS GIVEN YOU LIFE, AND GOD STILL LETS YOU CHOOSE WHAT YOU NEED TO DO WITH YOUR LIFE.
WHEN WILL WE LEARN TO SEPARATE OUR BUSINESS WITH ALL THESE RELIGION BROUHAHA, THAT AT THE END OF THE DAY WE ARE HUMANS AND NOT GOD.
SO LONG AS YOU ARE DOING A BUSINESS OR MOVE THAT DOESNT HURT ANYONE, AND THAT DOESNT PUT ANYONE IN A BAD SPOT, WHO DO YOU OWE ANY EMOTIONAL AND PSYCHOLOGICAL ENTANGLEMENT OVER IT TO


SERIOUSLY OUR AFRICAN MINDS HAVE BEEN SO MUCH THWARTED AND CONFUSED TO THE EXTENT THAT MANY PEOPLE ARE SERIOUSLY LIVING IN DELUSION, RATHER THAN LIVING THIS LIFE AS IT IS SUPPOSED TO BE, AND AS THE CREATOR OF THIS UNIVERSE HAS MADE IT TO BE.

OUR AFRICA IS THE MOST RELIGIOUS, THE MOST PRAYING, BUT STILL YET THE MOST BACKWARD AND THE MOST DESTITUTE, WE WILL PRAY FROM MORNING TILL NIGHT TO OUR GOD TO GIVE US VISA TO ARRIVE IN A NON-GODLY COUNTRY, AND EVEN WE WILL WORK UNDER A NON RELIGIOUS PERSON OVER THERE, AND STILL CALL IT GOD'S BLESSINGS.

AN AFRICAN MAN WILL PREFER TO PRAY ALL NIGHT OF 12HRS, RATHER THAN LEARNING A 1HR COURSE THAT WILL BETTER HIS LIFE.
WHEN WILL WE GT OVER THIS BONDAGE OF RELIGION?


AN AFRICAN MAN WILL RATHER SHOUT AMEN, AND I RECEIVE TILL ETERNITY RATHER THAN HAVING A QUIET TIME OF SOLACE TO REFLECT AND INNOVATE/IMPACT MEANINGFULLY ON HIS LIFE.

OUR PASTORS WILL TELL US OF HOW OUR POLITICIANS ARE BLESSED WHILST SOME OF THESE OUR POLITICIANS RENDERING PEOPLE HOPELESS IN ALL AREA OF THE COUNTRY.

AND AT THE END OF THE DAY, MOST OF OUR PRAYER POINTS ARE BASED ON PROSPERITY AND SUCCESSFULNESS, AND BREAKTHROUGH AND WEALTH, AND KILLING EVERY OBSTACLES IN OUR WAY, WHILE THE PURPOSE OF OUR RELIGION AND SUPPOSED RELATION WITH GOD SHOULD BE ETERNITY AT LAST

AN AFRICAN MAN WILL PRAY AND FAST FROM NOW TILL NEXT TOMORROW TO TRAVEL TO CHINA (A NON RELIGIOUS COUNTRY) TO GET WORK, AND WILL KILL ANYONE IN THE WAY OF THAT WITHOUT EVEN THINKING TWICE, AND WILL STILL CALL IT GOD'S PLAN AND PURPOSE.

THE GREATEST BREAKTHROUGH IN LIFE IS FINDING YOUR PURPOSE ON THIS EARTH, AND FULFILLING YOUR GREATEST POTENTIAL.... AND NOT PRAYING 24HRS A DAY.[/s]
