sharap.. Jesus is not God; don't compromise God.. Jesus is son of a God; being a beloved son of God doesn't make you a God.. Take note.. He is a prophet at par with Moses and Elijah et al!! Stop believing all the lies dish out by Paul the chronic epileptic and chronic liar...

Am sorry.
I was preaching Love.
You sound too bitter to understand it.

Chanchit:
4Nigerians! Na so we useless reach, cos according to this news, the pope wants to wash and kiss the feet of 12 useless people to show how humble he is.

Are u dis daft or are u making a special effort today?? Ur analysis reeks with d highest level of stupidity!!

sirlop:

U are a kid .... Sound like a little baby sucking his mother breast . we talking religion issue u talking rubbish. If how u talk u wont live long

PidginPriest:

My oga, I be Catholic priest as my id talk, though na for pidgin I de talk as my id talk too. History of the church na something wey I don use years study and Dey my back of hands. So i no sure I need 10 mins for Google as u ask me.
Eh Ehen, as I don talk that one, the truth wey all of us know be say before 1520 of our oga Luther who be Catholic priest too, comot from church begin him reon, no other church bin exist apart from Catholic Church. Yeah, e bin get different rites like the eastern and roman rites but all na one same church wey Dey under one Pope (though something happen for 1054 but I no need to yarn am here). And guess who the first Pope? Na Peter the apostle wey u know. After am clement, after am another and so and so for unbroken link sotey e reach Pope Francis wey u know.
The early Christian community of first 300 years bin Dey kind of scattered coz of persecution. But all of them bin get priests to consecrate body and blood of Jesus for them wetin we de call mass.

Well, mek I no talk much. Catholic Church dey rich in tradition. E don pass thru many things including psychological war Martin Luther carry come to create wetin all other churches be which be why dem de call them "protest"ants. Who dem protest? Against Catholic Church. And still dey do am. Na why today we no go stop to de hear people de tell us say we dey worship Mary or statue or idolatry or whatever. Na dem de talk, but we de do our pure worship wey dem hand to us since Jesus and first Christian community.

If u still de doubt go Google try search origin of Catholic Church or when E begin and u no go see date coz na first ever church. Then try search origin of other churches and all get date, the oldest of them wey no go pass 1520

I like ur way u mature .... But what was the name of the church when its started on the day of pentacost and peter was not a pope or papacy stuff . Peter get wife and peter was just like the fellow deciple ... We dont need to bring our own tradition into the church. Is for God not for men .if u have a church like all those man made church this day will u be happy for them to bring tradition of the community or culture in the Church. Imagine arm na God no go happy . those tradition peter no do them even Christ . what your say ?

The below is what you don't know or have been denying to talk about ever since

Also,
The reason I am a Muslim
John 17 3 : that they know you the only true God and Jesus Christ whom you have sent ,Jesus is a messenger

worship God not his messenger

the same God who sent, was the same one who came as Jesus and then as the Holy Spirit. The Only One God. Ist Timothy 3 Verse 16.

GreatSE:
How many times has he told the Muslims to repent of the sins and follow Christ.... Jesus He is "The Only WAY" thats what the bible says. Can he tell Muslims to stop Jihad on Christians all over the world.

How can Jesus be the only way when he is not the creator of heaven and earth? How do you tell people that worship the One True God to repent? Repent to polytheism and confusion? Oga go and learn.

payek:
the same God who sent, was the same one who came as Jesus and then as the Holy Spirit. The Only One God. Ist Timothy 3 Verse 16.

Why did Jesus not say transformed instead of sent?

Kbs468:

Look at this too

That image is arrant rubbish. None of those verses specified that that is how you should pray. It's only pointing out how different people prayed.

In Matt. 6: 9 - 13, after Jesus' disciples asked Him to teach them to pray, He never mentioned that they must stand, or kneel, or lie down etc. to pray or anything like that. So use your sense rather than poor quality internet memes at times.. it helps

Silvofitz:

What separate man from God is sin. The one and only Mediator between man and God is Jesus Christ. He's the only One that can reconcile man to God. The only solution to sin is the blood of Jesus. Only the blood of Jesus can wash away the sin of man. The only reason Jesus came is to save man from sin (Matthew 1:21). As long as people continue in sin, or wickedness, God is angry with them EVERYDAY, 24/7. (Psalm7:11). So, for any man to have peace with God; for any man to have relationship with God; for any man to overcome sin and Satan, his sin must be washed away. And only the blood of Jesus can wash away the sin of man.
Also, God is a Spirit. So, whosoever wants to serve God must possess the Spirit of God, the Holy Spirit. Only Jesus Christ can baptize, or pour the Holy Spirit on man. Matthew 3:11. No one can please God, except he possesses the Holy Spirit. Only Jesus Christ can give the Holy Spirit.
Lastly, God the Father, Jesus Christ His Son, and the Holy Ghost, His Spirit are One. These are three in One entity. If you deny one, you deny the others. If you deny the Father, you deny the Son. 1 John 5: 7.
I must agree, that it takes the grace of God to understand this, and to accept it. For it is written: For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God. (1Corrinthians 1:18; Isaiah 29:11-14; 50:4).
Lastly, you cannot separate Jesus from the Bible. Bible remains the only valid source of information about Jesus Christ. In fact, Jesus is the Word of God. So if we must talk about Jesus Christ, we must talk about the Bible.
In conclusion, you cannot serve God or access God, except you come through Jesus Christ. Forgiveness of sin, salvation comes through Him. And eternal life comes through Him. If you need any of these, you must accept Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior.

THRASH.

Look well before typing.

Many of you do not observe contents analytically and objectively; that's the characteristic of a bigot

I did not say brethren, I said the heathen - an unbeliever.

No one can have a part in Jesus except he has confessed Jesus as his Lord and saviour. Those are the ones Jesus washed their legs - His disciples, His followers.

Because Judas followed Jesus around during his earthly days didn't make him a christian or a disciple after all the bible made it clear he was helping himself from the general purse. Going to Jesus doesn't make you a christian, your actions and inaction does that's why praying for a man hungry does him no good until you give him food. Jesus healed both followers and heathens. He never selected who to extend his earthly ministry to. He even wined and dined with sinners. Don't forget only the sick needs a doctor and the only way you can truly convert people for Christ is by showing love. If we can't show our enemies love, what is the difference between us and the people of the world?

Stop being a christian and live a christian.


Love conquers all.

That man has to put off his white garment and travel far away where real olosho dey, different faces and colors...he just has to travel away to emjoy himself with olosho from the space.

What is an olosho? Not sure what anything like this has to do with Christian humility and the subject matter of the thread. :-)

effluxpump:
when Jesus washed the feet of his disciples, he wasn't performing any rite but he was teaching his disciples the essence and importance of humility.How? washing of feet was a duty performed by slaves when a visitors enters his masters house in ancient Israel. Jesus later made the point clear to his disciples that they ought to be washing the feet of others I.e that they should be humble kind and considerate in their dealing with others .He did not instruct his followers to be literally washing the feet of others ...

Correct. There was no instruction - only a clear example as you point out. And an example so illustrative that we are proud it is carried on in Christs name. Thanks for this good insight. The motives of those criticising are very questionable and reveal that they are poor Christians with little understanding of Christian values of humility, tolerance and love for all.

wadetaw202:






So, you will not demonstrate Christ's teachings and way of life to Muslims because they won't do same for you?

Are you a Christian at all? I doubt it.

Didn't the bible say you should love and do good to them that revile you? Or is that not in your bible anymore?

What separates Apostle peter, apostle paul, you and the Muslims other than Gode's Grace? Ephesians 2:8.

If it is by Grace, then it is not by work, which means you got it not because you deserve it. So, what now makes you better than or different from them? Nothing!

Finally, have you forgotten the teaching of Jesus where he said in John 10:16, that he will bring in other people?

And have you forgotten his teachings in Luke 24:47, where he said preaching should begin, both in words, but especially in action, from Jerusalem to the uttermost parts of the world (even to Muslims...except you Dont see Muslims as part of "uttermost parts of the world" )

If me, a catholic, can know these things, how come you, a Pentecostal, do not know them, since you claim you know God better than catholics?

I mean what is the point in attending Pentecostal church if the Holy Spirit, the institutor of Pentecost, doesn't reveal these things to you?

You don't get it at all.

I have nor said you should hate anyone... That's against the scriptures.

Love everyone, preach the gospel with love... True.

But the mysteries such as holy communion and feet washing is not for unbelievers. Go and read your Bible well and stop using scripture any how.

Jesus even told the woman by the well... It is forbidden to give the children's bread to the dogs.... I did not say that. Jesus did. He loves everyman, but not all the mysteries of the kingdom belongs to everyone.

You people should stop patting issues like this on the head. Christ is loving but principled.

You my friend are wrong. Judas was a disciple. It is referred to as the 12 disciples of Jesus. But he allowed devil and greed into his life... The scripture must be fulfilled.

He was a follower and a believer who fell.... Just as many Christians also fall today.

That's absolutely different from an unbeliever. You think Jesus did not know Judas will betray Him? Then why did he still regard him as His disciple?

He said in the Bible to God... Of all those you gave to me, I lost non but one - the son of perdition.

Keep living in a fools paradise. Who is the kid now? Just go back to school and learn, b4 you come here to exchange words with me. For your info, am not your class. Anyway, I won't bother responding again. Your contribution here is pathetic. Some nairalanders like you are suffering from dementia.

philcupid:
bros, have you cared to read the Bible? OK wait o, if you are a Nigerian and sent to Ghana, won't you say you were sent? Jesus is God, he came from heaven, took up human flesh to save us from sin and corruption...... Don't rejoice been a Muslim with the million atrocities Muslims commit in the world everyday for your god ? Bros, Jesus wants you to come to him, tomorrow might never come, tomorrow might be too late. #God loves you

[b]See Bro, I hate doing this. By this, I mean religious criticism and instead of actually quoting more and more Bible verses for you that would ultimately turned me against my word, I would rather give you a hint about my conviction from what I know about Islam apart from the other thing you saw that made you quote me as above.

And that is, a simple shot from the Holy Qur'an about Surah MARYAM ( A dedicated chapter of the Holy Qur'an about Holy MARY-MOTHER OF JESUS and Jesus himself.

I don't know if the Bible told you the same thing about him that made you to be calling him GOD.

I also hope you would read along before commenting alike.

Note:It is the 19th Chapter of the Qur'an with 98 verses out of the 114 Chapters contained therein and some of the Arabic text were actually cut off to accommodate the Translation though.

Remember also that Islam covers all the prophets of GOD from ADAM AND EVE to MUHAMMAD himself as he came after Jesus.

Come to think of it, An Arabic Man capturing things as revealed to him by the Angel Gabriel about people and persons not from his clan without being biased about it? Isn't that marvelous?

Unlike something that has been poluted and turned into a story book? Just like Nairalanders giving testimonies about prominent and active members?

I pray you endure to read everything to the end OK [/b]
