Kobojunkie: ![]() damilola4162: ![]() Acts 9:15 But the Lord said to him, Go, for this man is a chosen instrument of Mine to bear My name before the Gentiles and kings and the descendants of Israel; Acts 22:21 And the Lord said to me, Go, for I will send you far away unto the Gentiles (nations). Acts 26:17 Choosing you out [selecting you for Myself] and delivering you from among this [Jewish] people and the Gentiles to whom I am sending you–[Ezek. 2:1, 3.] Acts 26:18 To open their eyes that they may turn from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God, so that they may thus receive forgiveness and release from their sins and a place and portion among those who are consecrated and purified by faith in Me. [Isa. 42:7, 16.] |

femi4: At least Wikipedia, Oxford Dictionary and every sensible human agree that Christianity is a religion. It can be a name of a game, club, car or an animal etc to you. I don't care. |

MindHacker9009:Mr Old testament, let me give your madness some cure by answering these two questions: * Is love your neighbour as yourself part of old testament? (Matthew 22:37–39). * Is the teachings of the beatitudes in the old testament? (Matthew 5:1-12). If you v found nothing food about Jesus, you should be ashamed of yaself that He was able to reach this soundly since over 2000 years ago till eternity. If you are man enough, you should drink izal or sniper asap cos it's a shame on ya ego that the One you tried to shame flawed you. On this site o, we go jam mad patients like regular antichrists, atheists, islámists and now new Yaba left patient called old testament. Judaism people sef wise pass you. Bloody, ugly sore loser! If dem born ya mama well, quote me again without sense! |

Beuberry: If you are not the one that is mad and should drink izal or sniper asap, then you would have seen what your Jesus christ said here about the Old Testament: Mark 10:18-19 18 “Why do you call me good?” Jesus answered. “No one is good—except God alone. 19 You know the commandments: ‘You shall not murder, you shall not commit adultery, you shall not steal, you shall not give false testimony, you shall not defraud, honor your father and mother." |

MindHacker9009:Lol, my words are paining you, they are like two edged sword 🗡️ piercing ya soul. I must 🌶️ pepper you more vod you don't deserve to survive this. From the teachings of Jesus you just quoted, you contradicted yaself. Shebi you say Jesus na this bad, na that trash! But in this context you quote you saw as Jesus sef dey reason goodness out of old testament but you criticized Him of not doing that before. You deserve eternal lockup in asylum. |

damilola4162: You have written well but let me summarise in less theological terms. Acts 11:26 said they were first called "Christians" in Antioch. This term is probably describing the Christ-like behaviour of the disciples. So to answer your question, "who is a Christian?" A Christian has the life of Christ Jesus and behaves in the same manner. Anyone who behaves differently is not a Christian. Thus before you do anything, ask yourself, "What would Jesus do in this situation"? Being a Christian isn't church going but rather a way of life. |

tenpipsperday: Good question, Christianity is based on faith alone. it's one submitting to work God did in humanity (Christ Jesus) to save humanity. Let me state few differences between religion and Christianity below: Religion doesn't have a definite description of who God is while in Christianity God is Jesus (himself in mortal form) Colossians 1:15; Hebrews 1:13 In Religion you are saved or promised salvation by your works and believing in the supremacy of God while in Christianity you are saved by faith in the resurrection of Christ alone. Not by works, your good works can't save you only faith in the resurrection of Christ, it's a gift from God; Ephesians 2:8 Religion preaches self righteousness I don't: smoke, tell lies, steal, to mention just a few, while in Christianity you become righteous by believing in the resurrection of Jesus Christ; Genesis 15:6. |

One who treats every neighbour the same way she/he treats one’s self. She/he observes the sabbath day. Finally, the person fears God — whatever that literally means. |

Beuberry: Go back and read what I said before and stop contracting yourself. Jesus did not say to the man that came to him, "you know my teachings" Jesus simply referred him back to the Old Testament. You have been showing your anger so far because I'm being good to you to try and let you start to use your God given common sense to know that the Roman empire invented the Jesus christ you have been taught today. What good have you learnt from your invented Jesus christ with all the insults you have been pouring on your own head and the izal or sniper you are about to drink asap? |
Re: Who Is A Christian According To The Bible? by Beuberry(f): 2:44pm On Dec 10, 2023 |
MindHacker9009:You v hereditary madness. * Love your neighbour as yourself (Matthew 22:37–39). A teaching that has saved you from mobs. * The teachings of the beatitudes (Matthew 5:1-12). Teaching wey you let you know say hope dey for a born to suffer like you |

Imperfect human who is ready to live his life in harmony with the standard set by a perfect man so in most cases he errs greatly and his fellow imperfect human notice but instead of the later to praise him for the bold step he has taken they reluctant unbeliever wants to judge the Christian and often not based on what Jesus taught rather on assumptions regarded as Christ's teachings by those who don't even believe in Christ. For instance most people assumed that Jesus doesn't drink alcoholic beverages so when they see a Christian doing so they call him out as sinner whereas Jesus enjoyed alcoholic beverages responsibly! Luke 7:31-35 ![]() |

Beuberry: You have serious mental illness not surprised if you can believe a god mated with virgin to put himself in her womb then entered the world to offer himself as a sacrificed to save you from your sins. And me telling you the truth has made you to keep showing your madness here then you should go and drink your izal or sniper asap as there is no hope of any cure for you. |
Re: Who Is A Christian According To The Bible? by Beuberry(f): 3:11pm On Dec 10, 2023 |
MindHacker9009:Let's assume Jesus's birth was a lie. Didn't you enjoy these teachings from him? * Love your neighbour in the Old Testament. A teaching that has saved MindHacker9009 from mobs. * The teachings of the beatitudes (Matthew 5:1-12). If not for these two teachings, islámists for don bomb you o! You dz worthless mad rodent that's so broke he has no money for drugs to prevent ya madness from relapsing. |
Re: Who Is A Christian According To The Bible? by MindHacker9009(m): 3:19pm On Dec 10, 2023 |
Beuberry: When the man came to Jesus, Jesus did not tell him to follow his teachings of the beatitudes, Jesus simply referred him back to the Old Testament Commandments. You this Beuberry or whoever you are is so worthless, with inherited madness and a rodent that's so broke you this Beuberry has no money for drugs to prevent Beuberry's madness from relapsing and only only going to beg for izal or sniper to take asap can help you to end your miserable life of a rodent. You are so poor and miserable that you have no data to watch good educational hour or more long documentaries on youtube to help you know that the Roman empire invented your Jesus christ. |
Re: Who Is A Christian According To The Bible? by Kobojunkie: 3:27pm On Dec 10, 2023 |
CoronaVirusPro:Go back and read Isaiah 64 vs 1 - 6 to better understand the authors message. It is not stated there that everyone is a sinner.... Isaiah, the prophet who made that statement was a righteous man at the time He said those words. Rather, Isaiah stated instead that the sins of the people rendered their works an unrighteous abomination that God could never accept. This is because one first has to become Holy --clear of sins --before one can do works that are acceptable to God. So please don't spreading falsehoods. ![]() |
Re: Who Is A Christian According To The Bible? by Kobojunkie: 3:31pm On Dec 10, 2023 |
Krismas:Your first and biggest problem is that of lack of comprehension. You are told that the religion of Christianity has absolutely no foundation in Scripture, and that those who created it desperately sought to append themselves to a history not of their own, yet you randomly quote from scripture to assert what exactly? ![]() |
Re: Who Is A Christian According To The Bible? by CoronaVirusPro: 3:32pm On Dec 10, 2023 |
Kobojunkie: Isaiah the righteous man used the word "WE" Meaning including himself! |
Re: Who Is A Christian According To The Bible? by Kobojunkie: 3:36pm On Dec 10, 2023 |
Krismas:The word "Gentile" refers to Israelites who were cast out of the Nation of Israel back when it was destroyed by God in 700 BC ---- about the time of the prophet Isaiah ---whereas the word "Jews" refers to, again, Israelites, who were of the Nation of Judae until God judged and destroyed that too about 1900 years ago. Every follower or Jesus Christ was sent out, from even before Paul was, to preach to the Gentiles since Jesus Christ made known in John 3 vs 14 - 16 that the world He came to save, the only ones He was sent to were the Lost sheep of Israel.. ![]() Again, work on your comprehension skills before you attempt another response abeg! ![]() |

CoronaVirusPro:Have you read the Psalms? David referred to himself sinning a lot particularly when speaking in reference to the people, yet David was made King of Israel after He was approved holy and righteous by God, not before. ![]() |
Re: Who Is A Christian According To The Bible? by CoronaVirusPro: 3:42pm On Dec 10, 2023 |
Kobojunkie: Did David not sin after he was made king and approved holy and righteous by God? |

Dpaulie:Who be this one again? Why not narrate the fool msg that was being preached there? Don't negotiate my anger if you are here to twist the bible! |
Re: Who Is A Christian According To The Bible? by Beuberry(f): 3:45pm On Dec 10, 2023 |
MindHacker9009:😂 Lol. I love the way I v been dealing with ya poverty stricken life! The teaching you refered to, why didn't you post the concluding part? Demons like you 👿 always twist the bible to pass on false doctrines and interpretation. You attacked his identity, it nor work. You attacked his teachings, it nor work. You said he abused old testament and yet you said he refered to it to teach someone, that's a sign of high grade madness called contradiction. Should I expose you more? |

Re: Who Is A Christian According To The Bible? by Kobojunkie: 3:48pm On Dec 10, 2023 |
CoronaVirusPro:A righteous man is not a sinner since his sins are forgiven him by God once he asks forgiveness of God --- they are blotted away as though they never existed. But an unrighteous man is a man covered in sins that he would have to atone for -- God does not answer the pleas of the unrighteous and as such an unrighteous man is a sinner and remains such until he has fully atone for them all. ![]() |
