Xmuslim: Friend, you can just keep your heart empty. It will be great if you surrender to Jesus anytime soon: God has got plans for your life. Matt.12.43 - "When an evil spirit leaves a person, it goes into the desert, seeking rest but finding none. Matt.12.44 - Then it says, 'I will return to the person I came from.' So it returns and finds its former home EMPTY, swept, and clean. Matt.12.45 - Then the spirit finds seven other spirits more evil than itself, and they all enter the person and live there. And so that person is worse off than before. That will be the experience of this evil generation." Peace with you. |

An2elect2:. Error!!!!!!! False teaching!!!!! . 1. Galatians 5:19-21 “ Now the works of the flesh are evident , which are: adultery, fornication, uncleanness, lewdness, idolatry, sorcery, hatred, contentions, jealousies, outbursts of wrath, selfish ambitions, dissensions, heresies, envy, murders, drunkenness, revelries, and the like; of which I tell you beforehand, just as I also told you in time past, that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God.” 2. Galatians 6:9 “For he who sows to his flesh will of the flesh reap corruption, but he who sows to the Spirit will of the Spirit reap everlasting life.” 3. James 4:17 “Therefore, to him who knows to do good and does not do it, to him it is sin.” Colossians 3:5-6 “So put to death the sinful, earthly things lurking within you. Have nothing to do with sexual immorality, impurity, lust, and evil desires. Don’t be greedy, for a greedy person is an idolater , worshiping the things of this world. Because of these sins, the anger of God is coming.” 9. 1 Corinthians 6:9-10 “Don’t you know that the unrighteous will not inherit God’s kingdom? Do not be deceived: No sexually immoral people, idolaters, adulterers, or anyone practicing homosexuality , no thieves, greedy people, drunkards, verbally abusive people, or swindlers will inherit God’s kingdom.” 10. Romans 6:23 “ For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord .” 11. John 8:34 “Jesus responded, “I assure you: Everyone who commits sin is a slave of sin.” 12. Isaiah 59:2 “But your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid his face from you, that he will not hear.” Acts 3:19 “ Repent therefore and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, so that times of refreshing may come from the presence of the Lord.” 1 Peter 2:24 “He himself bore our sins in his body on the tree, that we might die to sin and live to righteousness. By his wounds you have been healed.” 24. Hebrews 9:28 “So Christ, having been offered once to bear the sins of many, will appear a second time, not to deal with sin but to save those who are eagerly waiting for him.” 1 Like |

hover20:. If u truly accept Jesus as your Lord and Saviour, u will not continue to sin. The bible is not just all about "accept the Lord Jesus as their personal Lord and saviour" repeatedly. That statement is just the tip of an iceberg. . 1 Corinthians 6:9-10 “Don’t you know that the unrighteous will not inherit God’s kingdom? Do not be deceived: No sexually immoral people, idolaters, adulterers, or anyone practicing homosexuality , no thieves, greedy people, drunkards, verbally abusive people, or swindlers will inherit God’s kingdom.” .

FarmTech: Error that salvation is found in Christ alone? I don't get. I can't really go deep here now. Currently the truth is seen as error, while error is truth. It is well. But one thing I have come to understand is that God almighty is the author and finisher of faith. He does the knowing, the calling, the justification, and finally the glorification. Nothing takes God by surprise. What men should be thought is the gospel, the good news of what Christ has done. It is this sound knowlege that leads men to repentance. The problem is our understanding of what sin is. We limit sin to some certain immoralities and by so doing lower the standard of God which can subtly lead to spiritual pride that one can attain righteousness by obeying certain rules. That was why Paul said that if righteousness comes by the law then Christ was dead in vain. If we look closely at God's standard then we are humbled and appreciate how much Christ accomplished on the cross. It is this knowledge that builds men in true fellowhip and worship, not pretense. |

emusmithyy:. Jesus did not eradicate the commandment! Rather he summarized it. . Matthew 22:37: “You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind”. “And the second is like it: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself’”. . Matthew 5:17 - “Do not think that I came to destroy the Law or the Prophets. I did not come to destroy but to fulfill. “For assuredly, I say to you, till heaven and earth pass away, one jot or one tittle will by no means pass from the law till all is fulfilled. Whoever therefore breaks one of the least of these commandments, and teaches men so, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever does and teaches them, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven” . 1 John 5:3 - “For this is the love of God, that we keep His commandments. And His commandments are not burdensome”. . “Therefore the law is holy, and the commandment holy and just and good,” said Paul (Romans 7:12). And as for grace, he wrote: “Shall we continue in sin that grace may abound? Certainly not! How shall we who died to sin live any longer in it?” (Romans 6:1-2). . “Blessed are those who do His commandments, that they may have the right to the tree of life, and may enter through the gates into the city” (Revelation 22:14). |

abodundef:Refusing to accept Jesus Christ is not a sin at all -- it simply means the life in question dies and ends in the grave.Refusing to believe in Jesus Christ is in fact FAR BETTER than accepting Jesus Christ, only to end up in Hell. According to Jesus Christ Himself, those who reject Him i.e. refuse to believe in Him, are not condemned to Hell. Since God already condemned them from the beginning to return back to the dust from whence they were made, they simply cease to exist at death. Who then ends up in Hell? Well, according to Jesus Christ, it is those who accept Him but refuse to obey His commandments that Hell is prepared for. Yes, only those who believe in Jesus Christ have eternal life, and the choice of where that eternal life is spent(Heaven or Hell) depends on whether the one who claims to believe obeys Jesus Christ's commandments or Not. |

nkemoma:Wait a second... who said we are less perfect than Adam? ![]() Hell fire is not false teaching. It is what Jesus Christ, laid down, as part of His New Covenant for mankind. Remember, Jesus Christ is the word of the Creator Himself so what Jesus Christ said, and Taught, is the Will of the Creator. Adam was condemned to die(sent back to the dust from where He came at death), and the same fate exists, to this day, for all those who choose not to believe in Jesus Christ. In fact, before Jesus Christ showed up, everyone who sinned(and was not descended from Israel) was condemned to die in like manner. Now that Jesus Christ is here, all those who do believe in Him, are still condemned to die like Adam did. However, those who believe in Jesus Christ, receive the gift of eternal life, meaning they do not die like Adam. But, there is a catch. Those who believe in Jesus Christ but refuse to Obey Jesus Christ, will end up spending that eternal life in Hell. |

souljaslim:You love and you won't break the 10? Where did you get that from? The 10 commandments, as well as the commandment to love, are part of the Old Covenant as well... so why were the Old Covenant folks breaking the commandments left and right? Yes, the commandment to "Love thy neighbor as you love yourself" can be found in the book of Leviticus. While the Greatest one, "Love the Lord thy God with all your heart, mind, body, and soul...." , the Shema, is also a pivotal part of the Old Covenant. |
Re: The "Small Sin" That Will Send The Most People To Hell-fire. by Kobojunkie: 9:44pm On Oct 20, 2020 |
FarmTech:That bible is divided into 2 separate covenants. One that God gave the descendants of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, through Moses, and then the second Covenant which God brought Himself through Jesus Christ to everybody. If you follow the Old covenant (assuming you are a descendant of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob by birth), be sure to follow God's Commandments as stated in the book of the Law. If, however, you prefer Jesus Christ, then be sure to learn and obey the commandments that He has set before you INSTEAD. Each Covenant defines what sin is, and as Jesus Christ said, "Do not put Old wine in New wineskin"... |

ProfChris10:. That salvation is found in Christ alone does not mean knowing and accepting Christ is the end. It is just a tip of the iceberg. If u teach men only the gospel, u will end up with "Christians" that are sinners - like we see in our churches today. Many people cannot differentiate good from evil. That is why they dress half naked, sing immoral songs, crack dirty jokes and still see themselves as Christians. Emphasizing sin is still important in this generation. Don't preach Christ and ignore their sins. John the baptist, Jesus and his apostles constantly told sinners to repent and believe the gospel. . Read the post again and see the error he is promoting: https://www.nairaland.com/post/89908136 . We live in a world where lesbianism, homosexualism, abortion etc are regarded as good. And some body is saying we shud ignore sin and just preach Christ. Error!!!! |
Re: The "Small Sin" That Will Send The Most People To Hell-fire. by ProfChris10(m): 10:27pm On Oct 20, 2020 |
FarmTech: Emphasizing sins does not change men. Don't you get it?. Some might pretend but inwardly they are not transformed. I have been there before. Men are transformed by the Holy Spirit. Did you not hear Jesus saying that no man can come to him except the father draws him? I have seen the gospel change men, not by telling men how wicked they are. Men have broke down in tears in true repentance on hearing how much God loves them. It is love that can transform even the hardest of hearts. |

ProfChris10:. And u think that is the only way to bring people to Christ? I told u, John the baptists, Jesus and his disciples all told men to repent from their sins and believe in the gospel. Jesus once said that the world hated him because he kept telling them that their ways are evil. Are u afraid of people hating u? . We live in a world where many evils are seen as good and many pastors are not even ready to speak out. Emphasizing sin is still paramount. It is only Satan and his cohorts that will discourage you from doing that. Like I said b4, focusing on God's love will only create "Christian Sinners". |

Xmuslim:Well, the God of the Bible never said that those who do not believe in Him will all go to Hell. That lie was made up by people who like to read the books upside down. What Jesus Christ did say, is that all those who believe in Him but refuse to obey Him will end up in Hell, I.e. they receive the free gift He offers but refuse to do the works that He has commanded and so will end up spending that free gift in the Hell He has created for such. Those who do not believe in Him, do not get the free gift. |

FarmTech:Most of you never actually read the Book for your own selves, instead you go around regurgitating the lies that have been told you by deceivers masquerading as men of god, damning your own souls as a result. Not once did Jesus Christ made it clear, even in parables, that those servants(believers) who refuse to do as the master commands are the ones who will be sent to Hell for punishment. Over and over, he made it clear that those who obey Him will enter His Kingdom and those who believe but do not obey will receive eternal punishment. |

zainkay:There is indeed what I consider a very valid response to the post in question, but I don't think it is worth your time since I am of the mind that one needs to find evidence for oneself, rather than seek answers from the mouth of others. As I already stated several times, the Bible does not introduce the concept of a Hell until Jesus Christ arrived with the message of the Kingdom of God. Prior to that, those who did not believe in God simply perished on death... no promise of an afterlife. The arrival of Jesus Christ, however, came with the promise of eternal life(life after death) only to those who believe in Him, meaning those who do not believe in Him, i.e. the Unbelievers, have no eternal life and so perish at death... still no afterlife promised. Since those who are to end up in Hell are those with an afterlife tacked on, it implies that those who end up in Hell are indeed some of those who indeed believe in Jesus Christ, to be exact, those who believe in Him but do not obey Him. Jesus Christ commanded obedience and no one who disobeys can enter His Heaven in the end. All those who believe in Him but refuse to obey Him are bound and tossed in Hell, a place which He prepared for just that kind. |

Once saved forever saved. If we could overcome sin on our own, then JESUS didn't need to come and die. So once you've accepted Christ, nothing can make you lose heaven except the sin of blasphemy. Let's try to understand these things. Cc: Jiggaz. |
