sonmvayina: Yes. But we have sinned and fallen short of God's glory, since Adam, and it passed to us. Only through Jesus we are qualified to go back to God and be with him both body and soul, at the last day. Anything short of that, is against God. Stop reading the Epic of Gilgamesh and the likes, so that you won't be deceived at last |

sonmvayina: So when God spoke about this, you call him a liar?? Mark 9:43 And if thy hand offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched: 9:44 Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched. 9:45 And if thy foot offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter halt into life, than having two feet to be cast into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched: 9:46 Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched. 9:47 And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out: it is better for thee to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye, than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire: 9:48 Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched. Matthew 25:41 Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels: 25:45 Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me. 25:46 And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal. Ezekiel 18:4 Behold, all souls are mine; as the soul of the father, so also the soul of the son is mine: the soul that sinneth, it shall die. Matthew 10:28 And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell. |

sonmvayina: Philippians 2:5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: 2:6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: 2:7 But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: 2:8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. 2:9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: 2:10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; 2:11 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. From the verses above, we see that Jesus is both God and Man. Making him the express connection between God and Man, after the devil stole it through sin |

sonmvayina: Lol.... Hear God speaking.... π Mark 1:11 And there came a voice from heaven, saying, Thou art my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. Matthew 17:4 Then answered Peter, and said unto Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be here: if thou wilt, let us make here three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias. 17:5 While he yet spake, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them: and behold a voice out of the cloud, which said, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him. Jesus Christ Himself Speaking π John 10:25 Jesus answered them, I told you, and ye believed not: the works that I do in my Father's name, they bear witness of me. 10:26 But ye believe not, because ye are not of my sheep, as I said unto you. 10:27 My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: 10:28 And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. 10:29 My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand. 10:30 I and my Father are one. John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 3:17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. Revelation 22:12 And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be. 22:13 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last. 22:16 I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star. Question So why can't we follow what God said, by asking us to hear from Jesus Christ? |

Religion / Re: Did Mary Give Birth After The Birth Of Jesus Christ ? by Jokerman(m): 12:55pm On Aug 04 |
Yes She did. One of Jesus half brothers is James. Galatians 1:19 But other of the apostles saw I none, save James the Lord's brother. (Paul Speaking) Scriptures that showed that after Jesus was born, Mary has sex with Joseph and gave birth to other children, not what Catholics are preaching... 1.Matthew 1:24 Then Joseph being raised from sleep did as the angel of the Lord had bidden him, and took unto him his wife: 1:25 And knew her not till she had brought forth her firstborn son: and he called his name JESUS. 2. Matthew 12:46 While he yet talked to the people, behold, his mother and his brethren stood without, desiring to speak with him. 12:47 Then one said unto him, Behold, thy mother and thy brethren stand without, desiring to speak with thee. 3. Acts 1:13 And when they were come in, they went up into an upper room, where abode both Peter, and James, and John, and Andrew, Philip, and Thomas, Bartholomew, and Matthew, James the son of Alphaeus, and Simon Zelotes, and Judas the brother of James. 1:14 These all continued with one accord in prayer and supplication, with the women, and Mary the mother of Jesus, and with his brethren. 4. John 7:3 His brethren therefore said unto him, Depart hence, and go into Judaea, that thy disciples also may see the works that thou doest. 7:4 For there is no man that doeth any thing in secret, and he himself seeketh to be known openly. If thou do these things, shew thyself to the world. 7:5 For neither did his brethren believe in him. |

Michael547: 1. Hell Fire is the spiritual place of rebellious and sinful spirits/souls. When humans die, their physical bodies drop and buried, but their spirit beings (soul), go on to live and cannot actually die because the soul is eternal (From God). 2. The Lake of Fire will be both for physical and spiritual death. Which is the second death. It is not open yet, until it's set time. Revelation 19:20 And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone. From the bolded Sir, we can see that the two people were literally thrown alive into the Lake of Fire π₯. Revelation 20:10 And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever. 20:14 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. Now the spiritual entity are also thrown into the Lake of Fire. This tells us that the Lake of Fire is the end of all physical and spiritual nonentities to God. However, for spirits and people( who will be in their resurrected dirty and sinful bodies), the Lake of Fire is eternal, as God is eternal. Revelation 20:10 And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever. 20:15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire. |

Religion / Who Is Supposed To Do Evangelism Or Preach The Gospel? by Jokerman(m): 12:21pm On Aug 04 |
This question needs an answer please. Let's look at these passages: Matthew 28:16 Then the eleven disciples went away into Galilee, into a mountain where Jesus had appointed them. 28:17 And when they saw him, they worshipped him: but some doubted. 28:18 And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. 28:19 Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: 28:20 Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen. As we can see here Jesus was talking to his Apostles to go out and evangelise. Now, we also know that Jesus also had other disciples (the 72), and other followers (e.g the 5000 he Fed) etc. Now,Apostles today are pastors, Prophets, evangelist etc?? So what about people who just go to church, or Christians who aren't pastors or evangelists etc, 1.Are they supposed to preach or evangelise the gospel like Jesus said? 2.As anyone who isn't a pastor or deacon ever done evangelism, etc, preaching to people on the streets, house to house, Bus evangelism Please help with your experience, and also with scripture if possible to show that Jesus was talking to all believers( not only pastors etc), about evangelizing. |

Michael547: Lake of Fire is not opened now. It's a literal fire because both the body and soul will be thrown into it t, after the 2nd resurrection of the wicked. Hell fire and death are spiritual evil condition or place or entity. So yes, they will be burnt in the lake of fire, which will burn all physical, spiritual, immaterial or material entity. Remember it's God's design, and there's nothing God cannot do, even things we humans cannot fully comprehend. Just believe the word of God 1 Like |

seunmsg: Most of us Nigerians always believe that price of fuel is directly proportional to cost of goods in our markets. If things are not so expensive for the common man, I don't think we'd care more about the fuel price. How can 10,000 not feed a family for a week, and how come electricity is so expensive too, cost of rent etc... So what exactly is Government subsidizing for it's citizens? 2 Likes 1 Share |

Michael547: There will be no more devils, Sin, defilement or anything that will cause enemity with God. Revelation 20:10 And the devil that deceived them was cast into the lake of fire and brimstone, where the beast and the false prophet are, and shall be tormented day and night for ever and ever. 20:13 And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works. 20:14 And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. 20:15 And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire. At the second death, physical death and Hades, will be destroyed, but as we can see Eternal beings like Humans, Devil, angels etc, will be alive in the fire to be tormented forever and ever (eternally). Revelation 21:8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death. With Hell and death destroyed, see what the Bible says; Revelation 21:1 And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea. 21:4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away. Revelation 21:27 And there shall in no wise enter into it any thing that defileth, neither whatsoever worketh abomination, or maketh a lie: but they which are written in the Lamb's book of life. |

Michael547: Like I said Bro, Hell is Hades. It is called Hell because of the torments lost souls are condemned to in it. It is Eternal because it's a precursor to what will happen at the Lake of Fire, and since the soul cannot die , that's why it is Eternal punishment, just like those in heaven presently, eternal life. See what Jesus himself said: Mark 9:43 And if thy hand offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched: 9:44 Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched. 9:45 And if thy foot offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter halt into life, than having two feet to be cast into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched: 9:46 Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched. 9:47 And if thine eye offend thee, pluck it out: it is better for thee to enter into the kingdom of God with one eye, than having two eyes to be cast into hell fire: 9:48 Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched. |
