Born Again, Why Do You Configure Your Phone For Free Browsing?

Should born again Christians configure their gadgets: phones, laptops, etc for free browsing? Is it not cheating? Please what is your take?

It is a sin. Another form of stealing like unto 419 and arm robbery. Thank God they call it CHEAT. Is cheating of God? The network providers are not happy that people are hacking into their servers, and the Bible says we should show love to our neighbours. Repent from it. I was once guilty of this too.

Familiar Spirit N False Prophecy

FAMILIAR SPIRIT AND FALSE PROPHECYSaul once had the Spirit of God, but when he got away from God, an evil spirit came to him. There are people today who once were used of God, but later they began operating under an evil spirit.A certain minister I know was at one time used of God in the word of knowledge and the revelation gifts. He was visiting a church where I was preaching, and the pastor asked him to say a few words. While he was speaking, the Spirit of God said to me, "He has a familiar spirit."The minister said, "You think I am not a prophet of God? Why, your name is So-and-so. Your address is such-and- such. You are so many years old, and in your billfold you have so many dollars. Isn't that so?" The person said it was so. One man had a valuable diamond ring at home. The minister said to him, "You have a valuable diamond ring at home in such-and-such a drawer. God said for you to give it to me." The man knew that this was supernatural. It had to be God, he thought, so he got the ring and gave it to the minister. Charlatans line their pockets this way. But that was not God's power in demonstration; it was a familiar spirit.Familiar spirits are familiar with you. They know about you and they tell people things about you. By the same token, the Spirit of God could do the same thing through the word of knowledge if He saw fit to do so. But it would not be just a public display for mere curiosity. It would be for your edification, not to attract attention to a man, to cause people to think he is someone great, to line his pockets with money, or to put diamonds or watches in his hand. The gift of prophecy is real. It is good. It is right. It can be used for good. (Kenneth E. Hagin)

This is same spirit that controls miracles and healings that people thinkthey are from God but are not. There are genuine miracles of God but not common.

There Is No Such Thing As An Atheist

Helooo! The word atheist derived frm the roots "a" meaning 'against' and "theos" meaning 'God' or 'a god.'hellooo!So ppl who claim that they are atheist bcus they dnt believe in Him is a contradiction of terms. U cant b against something you don't believe exist. U may as well b a fairy. There is no such things, so it is imposible to b against them. Helooo.The funny thing abt so called atheist is that they spend so much time talking abt d very thing they claim doesn't exist. Isn't this a waste of time? U dnt go around tryn to convince ppl not to believ in d tooth fairy. No, d real purpose of each and evry atheist is a deep longer. U want to c 4 urself. U wish deep down inside that God would show u sign so that u could hold on to something tangible.

Helooo! The word atheist derived frm the roots "a" meaning 'against' and "theos" meaning 'God' or 'a god.' Wrong. The root 'a' means 'not'; it does not mean 'against'. So 'atheist' means someone who believes that God is 'not'.The Greek root for 'against' is 'anti'. So someone who opposes god, or the idea of god, is an antitheist.

Effects Of Technologies On Christendom.

Has the invention of technologies,such as t.v's,radio's,satelite's,plane's,jets et.c done more good to christendom than harm? Pls share your views...

Good afternoon Seeme,I am of the opinion that technology and science have done a whole lot of good to our very 'small' world and indeed Christianity in particular. Some people tend to blame science and technology for some of the ills in our society today but I don't think this is appropriate.In itself there is absolutely nothing wrong with the gadgets and means of transportation you mentioned above but like every other thing else, what makes something bad or good has a lot to do with the way we choose to use it.Our actions and intents make some of their use wrong. For instance, if I choose to use an aircraft as a means of transport, this is a good use but if I choose to use the same aircraft as a means to carry out a suicide attack similar to 9/11 then that action is wrong even though having an aircraft in itself is not wrong.Thank you!

What Is The Name Of Your Church And Why Should I Worship With You?

i am a Catholic, as in more Catholic than the Pope. Recently i hardly go to Church, maybe tis cos we repeat our mass itenerary with little changes. Nonetheless i luv my church.Now the question is what church do u attend and why should i worship with you

Is this really necessary? Pick your bible and start reading it, analyse the meaning of each verse. Try and apply verses like James 1:27 to your daily living. I bet you if you do this every sunday you don't feel like going to church you'll be clocking 85 to 90 years by the time you are done practising and evangilising such verses. You don't need to be hunting and jumping from one church to the other.

Is It Impossible For The Rich To Be Truly Religious?

"Again I say unto you,it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich man to enter the Kingdom of God",Matthew 19:24.From the saying above,is it impossible for the rich to be truly religious or make the kingdom of God?.What is the essence of being rich when you are not truly religious?.Your opinion please.

There are two kinds of rich men. Those who are rich unto God and those who are rich unto themselves. The people that have issues in this context are those who are rich unto themselves only . They don't share their wealth . So they are Gods enemy . But the man who shares is Gods friend . Luke 12:20-21But God said unto him, Thou fool, this night thy soul shall be required of thee: then whose shall those things be, which thou hast provided? 21 So is he that layeth up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God.So God is not against christian prosperity but he is against greed

The Significance Of 12-12-12

I was going thru my FB WHEN I SAW A CAPTION BY BY PROPHET ZION MATHEW FOR 12-12-12 instructing people about a shift in God's prophetic calender,that prompted me to do a research on the significance of the number 12..and what it holds on 12-12-12 which is less than 48hrs away..This are my findings: Twelve stands for perfection of Government. Twelve is the number of the church, both old covenant church of isreal founded by twelve physical fathers(twelve sons of jacob-isreal)(gen49:1-. And the new covenant church founded by twelve spiritual fathers(twelve apostles).(mat10:24,mark3:13-19;luk6:13).this number also has a relationship with multiples of twelve. 12pillars ercted @ mt.sinai(ex24:4). 12pillars erected in d promised land(josh4:1-9). 12 statues of oxen held up d water basin in solomon's temple(1kings7:25). 12 men selected by God to conduct the census of the tribes(numbers1:2-16). 12 princes of isreal brought gifts to d sanctuary on 12 days(number7:10-) 12 spies sent to reconnoiter canaan(num13:1-15).. Jesus is 12yrs old when He quetioned d scholars in d temple(luk2:41)...12legions of Angels(mat26:53)..144000 servants of God(12 times12)(rev 7:4)...12 foundations of d new jerusalem(rev21:16;17)...12 gates of d new jerusalem(rev21:12)... The trees of life in d new creation will bear 12 kinds of fruits(rev22:2).. More contribution is welcomed from the house.

Remember its only 12-12-12 on English calendar, there are well over 30 different calendars in d world.

Do You Believe In Deliverance?

According to 2chorithians 5:17A "if any man be in Christ he is a new creature old things are past away,behold all things are become new" while obadiah 17 says"upon mount zion there shall be deliverance and there shall holiness and the house of Jacob shall posses their possesions" what is your view on this scriptures?

Those who go for deliverance ARE NOT CHRISTIANS. They might be 'church -goers' BUT NOT CHRISTIANS. I do not say that to condemn anyone but CHRISTIANS ARE ALREADY DELIVERED IN THEIR NEWNESS OF LIFE IN CHRIST. You attend deliverance week in week out, what happened to the first deliverance session you attended. Christianity is NOT giving your life to Christ, Christianity is CHRIST GIVING HIS LIFE TO YOU AND YOU LIVING THE LIFE OF CHRIST....."I came, that they may have life and have it more abundantly"....In him was life; and the life was the light of men.

You too have really shown good example by wanting to plant your evil seed as usual here in a thread that someone who is sincerely looking for Jesus opened. So that argument will start and the man gets distracted. Satan can be so trickish but I reject his tricks.

Is It A Sin To Be Foolish?

Foolishness is when you lack good sense or judgement. I personally dont believe it is a sin to be foolish, but you could commit a lot of sins against God out of foolishness.

there is really nothing like 'sin' in nature. There is only good and badYour second sentence contradicts your first.

Mid-week Service & Christian Folly!

It's becoming a custom in the Christendom by how many churches schedule their midweek services to be held in early mornings of Mon-Fri when members ought to be in their respective places of work. Some churches midweek services usually schedule for 9am, 10am, 11am etc. The question is, is Monday to Friday time to work or time to go to church?A sister of RCCG got her sack letter yesterday. This sister will be the first to appear in church on sunday by 7am but will be the last to resume office by 10am. After several warnings and queries with which she did not change, she was sacked.Why do pastors schedle programmes for early morning during the weeks? Were they instructed to do so by God? Could it be that many christians are self-decieved? Will sacrifising secular job time for church activities a sensible act or attracts a special blessing?I can not answer the questions myself. This needs more elaboration. Pls, how is it happening in your area?

What Do Christians Think About Greeting One Another With "Holy Kiss(es)"

Greet one another with a holy kiss - 2 Corinthians 13:12.Oh my goodness.....I love this scripture and please don't start messing around with scripture now.... Let me start by showing some example.....

kissing as a form of greeting is not an African culture....So we can let that slide...There are many cultural practices that happened in the bible that we are actually taking literally. If Jesus was an Isoko man, he would have broken kolanut with visitors and the Kolanut would have been supported with money and the money shared by everyone present. Believe me of this happened in the bible, we would not have only the tithing doctrine to complain about.

Why Do Some Christian Employees Worship Openly At The Office

I find this very uncomfortable, especially when there is casting and binding of demons. what are demons doing in a corporate environment We have a HR Manager who happens to be a high-ranking pastor in his Church, We also have several employees who are visibly born-again but every morning when they get to work, they start a mini Sunday Session right in the office. While I respect their right to worship, I do not think it is right in the Workplace.. We have Muslims working with us and when they want to pray, they drive down to the nearest mosque or lock up their offices and pray there.. not a sound. Why can't my Christian bruvas be the same. 1: They start prayers when work actually starts 8:00AM2: They sing praise songs (audibly) as they work regardless of the distraction it causes to some3: They are always arguing Christian stuff and making so much noise.4: They are always saying "It is Well" and "Bless you" even when the situation demands their urgent action5: There is always a Spiritual angle to a physical, economic, technical problemCan these Christians not wake up early, say 4:00AM and pray all they want before coming to work?

Mark 7:6 He answered and said unto them, Well hath Esaias prophesied of you hypocrites, as it is written, This people honoureth me with their lips, but their heart is far from me.

Hell Fire: The Most Repulsive Concept In The Bible

The most repulsive and hilarious concept in the Bible is the notion that an almighty and ever-existing/everlasting God will someday open a very large outdated book of record and those whose names are not found there will be thrown into an everlastimg fire....where there shall be weeping & gnashing of teeth!Well, i know this kind of action is surely subhuman , not to talk of it being the plan of a loving God for 99% of his creation who never begged for him to create them in the first place....I believe something is definitely wrong somewhere about the present idea of God we have. please what is your take !

God does not accept service or actions done in petrified fear. Fear is the opposite of faith. Hell fire preaching evokes fear and bondage in the hearers, but godly preaching of repentance from sin evokes godly sorrow that leads to actual repentance and response to Gods love and sacrifice.But Hell is very real. If there's no hell, then there's no heaven. Why should there be an eternal perfect and righteous place such as heaven then?When you understand what eternity is, and the fact that God is also an eternal judge, then you will understand.Until then, things done in fear evoke hatred and bondage. Its better to not know about God than to respond to him in fear and not love.Understand what? Why should any body end up in hell for finite disobedience? Does a sinner that lives for 30 years on earth deserve to spend eternity in hell? Does that make sense to you?

Clear Me On This 2

Hey pals, i have a question dt has been on my mind for a while now; why did d jews have to interprete jesus' loud cry 'eli eli lama sabactani' as he calls elijah? Does it mean they didn't understand his language or what?

Again, this has been on my mind...jesus bore man's sin on d cross as i'm told, now i want to know, when he went into hell, did he go with d nature of sin since he bore d sin of man? If yes, then how come he defeated d devil who was above man (at dt point) cos of sin? What really happened? Did he die as man and descended into hell as god? Answers pls Does it really matter, sis?Anyhow, Scripture say that he was made sin for us who knew no sin. Both sides were completely necessary.How it worked out we will not accurately know until we have been glorified with Him. All we need to know is that He satisfied our responsibility to a Holy God and thus made it possible for us to commune with such a God again without any fear of destruction.It is only a guess that we can make at best about how His Death saved us, about what happened in the Grave. What we do know is that by Faith we can receive His merits as ours before God. And if we continue with Him in faith, His very Nature can be made ours actually so that we more and more rise above corruptibility and one day become every bit as incorruptible as He is.That is all we really need to know, that we must share in His Death (that is, in His doing away with sin, otherwise known as our claim to ourselves) and thus in His Resurrection (that is, in His incorruptibility).PS. Jesus triumphed over Satan because there was no sin in Him, that is, He laid no claim to Himself but was wholly His Father's to command.

War In Heaven!!!

Heaven is supposedly a place of peace, a utopia of some sort, a place where there is no pain or any sorrow, but we are told in the bible that there was a war there once, in which lucifer an angel revolted and led a rebellion in which angels were fighting each other, and like all wars there were casualties, but lucifer and his cohorts were defeated and sent down to earth,This brings to mind a question that I have often wondered about, if there was war in heaven once, what assurance do christians have that there would not be another war again? What assurance do christians have that maybe one of lucifer's rebels( who was not cast down with lucifer in the first war,) would not start another rebellion after christians have gone to heaven? These questions might sound funny to most christians, but it's something that's worth thinking about, cos I presume that when heaven was created initially it wasn't meant to experience any war, but unfortunately it did, so how sure are christians of a war free heaven?

Religious Rivalry In Africa Is Pathetic

I am a Nigerian and recently, i have been studying African history and the more i learn, the more disappointed i am with the current state of Africa. we used to be a great continent of great people but then the Arabs and Europeans came and fed us their religious bullshit and now, we are killing each other because of religions that are not originally ours.

How Yahweh's Jealousy Stripped Him Of Being The Only God

5 Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the LORD thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;Exo_34:14 For thou shalt worship no other god: for the LORD, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God.If indeed Yahweh is the only God in existence (am supposing Gods exist, which they dont), why is he jealous of other Gods who dont even exist?Yahweh stripped himself of the right to be the only God(even if Gods exist) when he said he is jealous and that his name is Jealous.If you are the only president of a country, and if you are psychologically sane, you'd not be jealous of other presidents of that same country. If you are then 1 of three things has happened:1. You understand you are not really the president, you are only nominal.2. You recognize other people sharing your post and so, you are not the only one with authority.3. You are insane.So for Yahweh to be jealous of other Gods means he is not the only Godin existence and his jealousy proves that fact that he knows this; or he is insane. But to not offend Yaweh worshippers, I stick with the fact that he is no God at all, he doesnt exist. The Jews made him up and failed wholly at it.Yours,Ooman.

Yahweh nd God r two different name,so mind the way u use it,if u wanna use God use it alone! Yahweh, Lie-on Of Judah, Prince of Piss, Hell ShallDie, Hell-toHim.. figment of Father Abraham's imagination..

Should A Good Christian Drink Alcohol?

Alcohol or wine, should christian drink any substance with alcohol at all? Does God command non drinking of alcohol? Will a drunk make heaven?Let us be as objective as possible on this. No self justification. The word of the Lord will be light unto our path in Jesus name.

Luke 7:34:34 The Son of Man, on the other hand, feasts and drinks, and you say, aHeas a glutton and a drunkard, and a friend of tax collectors and other sinners!a John 2:9-10: 9 When the master of ceremonies tasted the water that was now wine, not knowing where it had come from (though, of course, the servants knew), he called the bridegroom over. 10 aA host always serves the best wine first,a he said. aThen, when everyone has had a lot to drink, he brings out the less expensive wine. But you have kept the best until now!a 1 Timothy 5:23: 23 Donat drink only water. You ought to drink a little wine for the sake of your stomach because you are sick so often.Of course we all know that Jesus also drank and shared wine with his disciples at the last supper, what else is there to say I don't know were people keep getting this silly idea that christians are not meant to drink when there are several examples of Jesus and his followers drinking in the bible andthere is not one single verse in the bible which expressly states that christians should not drink. The bible actually recomends drinking in moderation and not avoidance of alcohol.

The Extent Of Restitution

on a sunday morning I was preparing for church when I heard, on the radio that about 15 born again Christians who returned back their waec result earned via cheating as they could not live with the ''sin''...believing, that was the fair way, they could restitute back such evil act..then it got to me, so many students,involve themselves in this act (cheating), especially on subject they found difficult... And eventually some of them began to believe in themselves and avoided such evil by studying hard and passing their exams by their own selves through out their days in the institution,believing also that doing away with exam malpractice would settle the past(what they had done before) and make God proud of them. Well I ask, do they stand justified ..or is restitution the only way to go about it?

If d holy spirit instructed them to do dat,then it is restitution without any doubt and we can't question God,for who hath known d mind of God or had been his councellor?it is better we all restitute all that we have in or d oda stolen or taken,i for one am not exempted,for these things dat we c and take as things dat do not mata matters alot with God,for his words says we will all given account of every careless words we utter and we shall give account of all we av done,so we all should restitute now while we still av d time for tomorrow may be 2 late

What Is The Future Of The African Traditional Religion (ATR)?

with the rapid growth of the abrahamic religions in africa and the crusade against the Gods of the land, what do you think is the future of the ATR. I do think the ATR will never go to extinction. This is just my take on it.

You must be talking about the abrahamic versions, no?obadiah777: ATR are strong delusions. these fools are in a trance. they are spiritual zombies.

Matthew, Mark, Luke And John - Are They Old Or New Testament ?

Vote to answer the question or learn from others. For me, in the light of the scriptures, Matthew, Mark, Luke and John which are the synoptic gospels are NOT New Testament. They are Old Testament.

How are they new? If you get my point though, then treat my point. Let's give people revelation not religion. I can pull many scriptures to tell you it is Old Testament apart from the Hebrews verses used to prove they are Old Testament. You've to dig deep brother,lol. You know you don't get water on the surface. Rivers of living waters don't come to flow by scratching the surface, it flows by opening the source and the "container" being turned up side down. Are you there? If yes, hit the reply button.One, is that they are placed in the new testament, not in the old testament by people who know more than us.Two, is that they were written during the new testament dispensation, making them new testament books.Three, is that you and other proponents of the gospels are OT would agree that not all the book is OT from your definition of OT. I mean if your definition is that NT begins after the cross, some verses and chapters of Matthew, Mark ,Luke and John are after the cross.Four, is that most are not even agreed on the time the NT began. Is it at Calvary, after Christ's death, after His ressurection, after His ascension? When?i will come to other reasons later but let me deal with this belowHebrews 9:15 A And for this cause he is the mediator of the new testament, that by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first testament, they which are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance.16 For where a testament is, there must also of necessity be the death of the testator. 17 For a testament is of force after men are dead: otherwise it is of no strength at all while the testator liveth.5solas comes in with the men are dead reason, the question is IS JESUS DEAD OR ALIVE?

Arise Sir Logicboy: Knight Of Atheism

To them who hear so much to fear..Even to the brave; Fits of Doubts, To the weak; Quakes of Agony. He that hath such name let him be herald...Logicboy come and answer to the plea of the unlearned to indeed see the secret of thy logic..

hmmmm.... Atheism, some take offence when you tell them you are one.. Some even start looking down on you as a "lost" soul contrary to popular belief that atheists do this to the theists. For me, Atheism is the disbelief in the existence of a deity of any form or shapeI guess most of us are actually just agnostics at heart since no one can actually prove the non-existence of a deity of any form. However, I am convinced that our concept of god is flawed in so many ways beyond doubt to allow me the conclusion that no one group has the exclusivity to "salvation". Since they all claim it, they must all be wrong! simple logic I am not convinced there is NO "god" to be honest, but I am 100.1% sure Abraham's god isn't real. Also, if any deity exists I can put my foot down and say he has no influence whatsoever on our planet. Religion is only a poor attempt by desert dwelling ancient minds to comprehend the world they lived in. I reach this conclusion by merely looking at the history of this god/gods and how he/they came about. The information is available for anyone interested to do some research. It is appalling that majority of Christians and Muslims alike have no idea how their religion came about or how it started. For the Jews, I can pardon them because Judaism is more of a culture than a religion to them hence everyone else has no excuse to be ignorant.That's my fundamental reason for disbelief in a "god". My idea is simple.. if the foundation isn't real, then everything else about it is hogwash.Put that aside and I can come up with loads of reasons why i don't believe in god

Let Us Stop Fighting In The Name Of Religion & God

Let us stop fighting in the name of religion & GodThis entire earth is the property of the absolute God since it is created by Him. No human being created any region of this earth and therefore the absolute right of this entire earth belongs to the absolute God only. It is the climax of foolishness of human beings to fight and kill each other for the sake of the borders of divisions of countries and for the ownership of any region on this earth. The representatives of all the countries on this earth should unite and form a Central Government to control the terrorism in any country. It should be responsible for the peace of the entire world. If the peace is achieved in entire world in this way, it is a real achievement of the success of this holy Christmas.

Why does this MAN contrary to scripture , give the rich front seat positions in the church , and relegate the poor to the back ?I also noted that many miracles being performed are fake , is this true.Nigerians, wake up and leave this church let this man be on his own when judgement falls.Your priority is to feed you families and take care of them, to help the needy around you and stop supporting these fakes, charlatans and robbers.

GOD Please Forgive Us Nigeria/nigerians

I had a revelation from GOD last year 2011 August that His Judgement is upon Nigeria/Nigerians (Especially the church) that I should even relocate to Accra,Ghana because its going to be terrible. . He also told me to pray for Nigeria/Nigerians, and continue to ask for mercy and forgiveness. Just like Nineveh in the bible when Jonah was sent to them, I feel if we can make this thread one of prayers,seriously in our own unique ways asking GOD for forgiveness upon Nigeria/Nigerians, our families and even us, it will bear witness of or repentance and supplication to GOD to help .I will start with a simple prayer : GOD please forgive us Nigeria/Nigerians,your church, my family and I,wash us with the blood of Jesus from our filtiness,may have mercy on us O Lord , please restore your righteousness in our nation, make us function even as you have purposed from our begining, and let us bring glory to your name, in Jesus name I pray.Amen

I love you, but GOD love you even more. I pray that GOD forgive you your sins and bring you to a place of filling your emptiness, that you want so much to fill. May His grace arrest you, and mercy be abundant in your life. I decree this day that, you will serve this GOD and proclaim in this same zeal Christ Jesus to the end of the earth, and bring many to his kingdom.GOD bless you good and may His angels keep charge of you in Jesus name. Amen Why are saying you love me? Are you gay?I also pray that god forgive my sins. Don't worry, I know how to fill an emptiness, ask Nkechi, my mistress. All her three holy emptiness are filled frequently by no other by me.God said, chose ye who you will serve. I have already chosen so your decree is useless.No, I won't start shouting jizz us, jizz us, to the ends of the earth. I'm not a desperate sex-starved nun.Glory to Satan, In Jizz-Us name indeed.

What Brings Atheists Together?

few days ago, I expressed my disbelief in religion to a girl who used to know me as a christian. We were colleagues some years back and she knew me as a christian then but she was an atheist. She comes from a country in Asia that is highly atheistic.We hadnt seen each other for over a year and after seeing each other we went to have coffee (I hate coffee ) together. This girl hardly sows emotions due to a traditional Asian culture she grew up in. When I told her that I was done from christianity, she smiled. It was rare for her to smile at a controversial topic of religion. We both paused for a moment and looked at each other as if we both had confessed that we were in love to each other...................if at this point, you are hoping for the story to get romantic or for me to mention that we kissed, go to the romance section I told this story because I have two contrasting thoughts now. ~The first thought was that getting atheist together for a convention would be difficult as atheists are only held together by a disbelief in god. However, a disbelief in god was able to start something between two platonic people. So what can bring atheists together, is a disbelief enough or we need to have something more?

Ofcourse. I can. So, take that little sarcasm about your name too.Hehe.lol

We both paused for a moment and looked at each other as if we both had confessed that we were in love to each other...................if at this point, you are hoping for the story to get romantic or for me to mention that we kissed, go to the romance section I told this story because I have two contrasting thoughts now. ~The first thought was that getting atheist together for a convention would be difficult as atheists are only held together by a disbelief in god. However, a disbelief in god was able to start something between two platonic people. So what can bring atheists together, is a disbelief enough or we need to have something more? ## Assistant: ## Ofcourse. I can. So, take that little sarcasm about your name too.Hehe.lol ### END CONVERSATION ###

Jesus - What Kind Of Sacrifice Are You Talking About?

I got this from the why won't god heal amputees forum. . . .I really want to hear Christians respond. How is it that you think Jesus actually died for your sins? According to this story, the guy didn't stay dead. What kind of sacrifice is that? In the OT the slaughtered cattle didn't come back. Now, a God named Yahweh supposedly made everything (knowing what would happen), and planned it all out so that it would happen just the way he wanted it to (his "divine plan" just so he could come down and sacrifice himself, to himself, then preach to some people in hell for three days only to come back to life? Does this honestly make any sense to you? If so, how? A real hero would actually stay dead. His sacrifice would be a true loss for him (i.e. - he would lose everything in order that we would gain) - but that is not what happened according to the bible. God didn't kill himself so that we could live. So, why should we think this story is true? Doesn't it just sound more like foolish men made it all up (just like in other religions)? Christians, please help us non-believers understand why you believe this story (what good reason do you have) and why should anybody think it makes any sense?

Lol.I remember asking a Christian this same question a year back when I was, erm, still agnostic. His reply was that the TRUE sacrifice was 'GOD' becoming 'man' and taking the shame on the cross. His 'resurrection' is proof that he is GOD. Christians, thank me later.

Where Is Bishop David Oyedepo?

1) Oyedepo appeared absent from Sunday Service on yesterday at the Winners' Chapel main auditorium. 2) Notice this was the Christmas Service, also on a Sunday. 3) Was he there in disguise? Did he melt with the crowd? 4) His wife also appeared to be absent. 5) None of the stand-in pastors (in flowing/stylish agbada and regular suits) appeared to make any announcement on David Oyedepo's absence. Is he waiting for the angst against his Christian slap event to cool? Did he worship elsewhere? Did the spirit minister to him to go into hiding? Was he advised to make himself scarce for now? This is a common tactic: go into hiding until things cool down. You'd think Mr. Oyedepo would be beyond that; but one may be wrong. So, where's David Oyedepo? When will he return to his post? When will he apologise for his grand misbehaviour? When will be apologise to the _witch_? Or, was he present but was just invisible?

Athists Please Explain This

I am from edo state and and witchcraft is practiced there alot there is this case in my place of some children that made a figure out of clay and began to pour blood of chicken on it as they see the older people do in shrines. They contined this for some time until they all left for school. They stopped this joke(as it seemed to them) bacause they were no longer at home. Then all three of them fell seriously sick and they defied treatment until a juju man told the parents that the spirit thnat had inhabited their clay figure needed blood. Until this sacrifice was done before they got better and meanwhile nobody knew about this joke of their. This is how the devil disturbs the world and he has made u blind to these things macdaddy and co. Pls answer and i hope u re still not afraid of the dark. I am ready for u athiests.

You still have so much to learn for me to even start a discussion with you. You are suffering from extreme indoctrination and unless you free yourself from it, nothing anybody says will make sense to you.Have you ever heard of the words coincidence, probability and possibilities? When doctor's in Nigeria cannot detect a sickness, people say its spiritual attack forgetting that we are still way backward in medical advancement in Nigeria and even the west is yet to find cure for many ailments. Now when someone have a cancer that cannot be detected in Nigeria, why do people call the source of the cancer spiritual attack simply because doctors cannot detect the tumor? That is just to tell you that you're lazy and refuse to use your brain to research and try to know what is happening. Why do you have to narrow down the origin of their ailment to just one cause with no single proof when there are wide range of possibilities? You live your life on hear say and think you are smarter than people that live their life on fact. The reason why Nigeria is so backward is because it has so many people that reason like you.

your link contains nothing but lack of real understanding of nature. It is really hard to accept facts when you have been indoctrinated with presuppositions.The bible is never consistent with the nature, science has in fact disproved the bible times without number, which is why creationism has divided into young earth and old earth creationists in the first place.Those people in Sunday school and house fellowship will find your knowledge more useful, go be a genius to them.

Would You Have Believed Jesus To Be The Son Of God If You Were Born In His Time?

I always wondered why the jews/pharisees/saducees refused to believe that Jesus was/is the Son of God. Was it because the belief that God had/has a son sounded ridiculous to them or were they just spiritually blind. They were expecting a messiah that would free them from the oppression of the Romans but instead they got someone claiming to be God's actual son. So, a thought came to my mind, what if i was born during the time of Jesus? Would i have believed His claim of being God's begotten son? it would have been hard for me to believe cos I would have asked Him a lot of questions. Questions about God and the purpose of man in such a large universe. To be honest as much as i would like to delude myself that i would have believed Him, i don't think i would have believed (maybe that's the reason i wasn't born then). So over to Christians (and every other person) would you have believed Jesus to be the Son of God if you were born in His time?

Lies. And the Pharisees didnt read the scriptures abi? Remember that their scriptures were no adulterated like the ones you have now. The pharisees did read the scriptures but Some were not attentive..........they were proud and belligerent and so could not discern that the messiah was In there midst....... some knew that the man Jesus was infact the promised messiah but there wicked hearts could Not let them publicly agree to that fact...........________________________________Every sincere hearted Jew that existed in Jesus' time could tell Jesus was the promised messiah.............

Does Satan Have Any Powers

This is a face-off between Matthew 28:18 "And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, **All** power is given unto me in heaven and in earth." and similar scriptures versus Luke 4:6 "And the devil said unto him, All this **power will I give thee** , and the glory of them: for that is delivered unto me; and to whomsoever I will I give it." AND Luke 10:19 "Behold, I give unto you power to tread on serpents and scorpions, and over all the **power of the enemy:** and nothing shall by any means hurt you." My pastor thinks the devil has no power at all and he often quotes I Peter 5:8, where the devil like a roaring lion seeks whom to devour. He says that the devil is a master of deception but does not have real power. What do you think?

Does Heaven Really Exist ?

i know that this question is several time repeated in this forum no matter. yesterday i have been reading a great news about the mission of spacecraft voyager I, launched on September 5th 1977 by NASA the objective is, to study the outer solar system and interstellar medium. NASA is commemorating the 35th anniversary of this mission the latest news , saying that voyager arrived in the border ready to live our system solar to get in other systems it is now in heliosphere to enter interstellar. 35 years of searching in huge universe I do not think that God has to hide something most important not to be discovered he created everything and his oeuvre is tangible and visible such as planets, stars, etca when he created men he personally was coming down and talking with adam and eve but cause of sins he ceased it coming down and talking with men . so, the dwell of God is somewhere in universe really a planet, maybe very far from the solar system where any spacecraft cannot go. The bible is talking about heaven if this really exist at what part of universe ? with 35 years of this trip at least a planet with super life should be found heaven should be something tangible. so, earth is the heaven if not then it does not exist we are not alone in universe the problem that we do not have enough power to go beyond of our capacities

heaven is hidden from mortals,.n over thinking about such things brings doubts!..personally, I've stopped asking questions I know no one except God has answers to..dere are some things that should just be accepted d way they are.I agree with Berryl .I am a great fan of NASA and space exploration but my question for u is dat have u found the garden of eden that is physically on the earth?

Can You Donate Blood For A Stranger?

One day, i took a stroll to the blood bank and did a free voluntary blood donation (as an attempt to screen myself for viral illnesses for free). And i have seen relatives of sick patients refuse to donate blood for no plausible reason - almost as if it was a taboo.So, i am asking each and everyone of you, can you donate your blood for free or for a relative or for a friend? As a way of promoting voluntary donation.Obadiah and the other christian leaders, i know you go soon start to dey quote bible stuffs now, like - in blood is the life of a creature.And Jehovah witnesses, please i will advise you not to comment on this thread, well, on second thoughts you might. . .

I've done it before and I'd do it again. And I've only ever done it to help people, not to get a free HIV and Hep B screening. The only thing I'm religious about is using condoms so I know I dont have HIV.Lots of people are going to come on this thread and claim that they'll happily donate. But when their neighbour gets hit by a danfo bus and needs blood, they'll start stammering and giving excuses. If you're such a good Christian/Muslim how come you've never strolled down to the nearest general hospital to donate blood?There's too many hypocrites among the religious people. All talk and no action.

HELP MY Friend:he Hopes He Dosen't Offend GOD By Doing This

My friend has chronic anxiety when talking to new people which makes him stutters severely, he can't talk to girls in class and he always rely on us because we understand him. Though he stutter a bit when talking to us but you can hardly notice it, but talking in class and discussing issues in public he starts stuttering.His doctor prescribed anti-anxiety drugs for him but he has to use it everyday and its getting addictive, without his medication he ll start stuttering in public again, his pastor keeps motivating him but he still not satisfied.THE MAIN DEAL is that he wants to go and see an HERBALIST to cure his problem, PLEASE WILL GOD FROWN AT HIM GOING TO AN HERBALIST, pls need your opinions?

Herbalist or Pagan Priest? They can be two different things. I know there is a difference because my grandmother was an herbalist but not a pagan priest. If he is going to get herbs mixed to help with his anxiety, this is different form him going to have spirits invoked by a pagan priest on material/herbs for him to use. The first is purely medicinal and is acceptable while the latter is spiritual + medicinal and not acceptable for anyone who professes to be Christian.

Though he stutter a bit when talking to us but you can hardly notice it, but talking in class and discussing issues in public he starts stuttering.His doctor prescribed anti-anxiety drugs for him but he has to use it everyday and its getting addictive, without his medication he ll start stuttering in public again, his pastor keeps motivating him but he still not satisfied.THE MAIN DEAL is that he wants to go and see an HERBALIST to cure his problem, PLEASE WILL GOD FROWN AT HIM GOING TO AN HERBALIST, pls need your opinions? ## Assistant: ## Herbalist or Pagan Priest? They can be two different things. I know there is a difference because my grandmother was an herbalist but not a pagan priest. If he is going to get herbs mixed to help with his anxiety, this is different form him going to have spirits invoked by a pagan priest on material/herbs for him to use. The first is purely medicinal and is acceptable while the latter is spiritual + medicinal and not acceptable for anyone who professes to be Christian. ### END CONVERSATION ###

What Do You Tell Someone Who Accuses You Of Worshipping Statues?

Someone told me the other day that Catholics are idolaters because we kneel in front of statues to pray, which means we are worshipping the statue.I told him that meant kneeling by your bed to pray is worshipping your bed, and praying at the table before meals must be worshipping your food. That actually helped him understand that you aren't always praying to whatever is in front of you, and I used the opportunity to tell him that we worship God, but we simply ask saints to worship God on our behalf.Of course this individual was not converted, but I honestly think he has more understanding of our faith than before. I always find it useful to use humor to get people to see your side of an issue. I just thought I'd like to share that, and see what others have experienced in issues like this. What do you tell someone who accuses you of worshipping statues?

dont try d above with ijawkid and frosbel, they are more interested in condemning u than in seeing ur perspective.No offence meant to ijawkid and frosbel bt d truth is what it is.Lol....we aint angry bro....I'm not in any battle with the catholics actually.....its just that bowing down and chanting before images is just against what Jesus would do...its plain idolatry......Jesus didn't need the help of an image before he could approach his Father....we don't need items to be right in front of us before we can approach our heavenly Father.....As I can see the catholics are not confident enough that Jesus can do his mediator Job any longer and so bowing down before marys image becomes important.....need I remind you guys that we are to worship God by Faith and not by sight.......we don't need images to help us get to God...images are inanimate objects made by the hands of man........they are lifeless and USELESS........

To The Sceptic

Mr. Scepticayou look up into the great vast sky at the MASTER CLOCK of the universe, which never misses a secondathe perfect watch by which we must constantly set all our imperfect man-made watchesaand you tell me, aThat all just HAPPENED! There was no Great Watchmaker! No Master MIND thought out and planned that vast universe, brought it into being, set each star and planet in its own exact place, and started the myriad heavenly bodies coursing through space, each in its prescribed orbit, in its orderly precision. No, it just fashioned itself, put itself together, wound itself up, and started itself running. There was no Intelligenceano planningaNO CREATIONaNO GOD! Do you say that to me? If you can, I answer that I do not respect your intelligence. And the God I acknowledge replies to you, aThe FOOL hath said in his heart, There is no God!a (Ps. 14:1; 53:1.) If you can look about you, and observe how intelligently PLANNED and executed is everything in nature and in plant and animal lifeaeverything we see except the bungling, botching, polluting of Godas beautiful handiwork by the clumsy hand of God-ignoring-and-rejecting MANaand then say you doubt the existence of an all-wise, all-knowing, all- powerful Creator GOD, then I do not have much faith either in your rational processes or your sincerity as a seeker of the TRUTH!a

Aww is that your best response to this post on this thread? Come on man get to work defending your God.Mate, God will defend himself, you are the one seething with rage at a GOD who you say does not exist I am rock solid in my belief in God and need no further proof, the proof is within me.But leave others to carry on with their delusions while you bask in the glory of your newly found theory of a universe without origin, lol, a world of chance and magical appearances , where logic is the key to unlocking the door to 'madness'.

How Dare You Call Me A Militant Or Extreme Atheist?

Who the hell is a christian or muslim to call an atheist militant in this present day and age? What moral ground do you have? Have you looked at your religious people this past year? -Boko haram and islamist terrorists bombing innocent christians and muslims? -Pastors committing fraud and slapping people -pastors molesting innocent people -Pastors claiming that God is sending hurricanes to kill gays -Sharia countries imprisoning atheists and christians [size=14pt] ** Seriously, what basis do you have to call an atheist militant just because they criticise religion on the internet? When did complaining with text become as extreme as murder or ra.pe? If you are a true religious person, please meditate and look at your religion before you call others militant or extremists!** [/size]

Please, dont be annoyed if I dont take you seriously. Atheists here are now used to this Anonyism. This christian apologist tactics to derail any arguments against them by going into an endless world of reductionist definitions. You want to steer the debate away into definitions then after,you will complain about abuse, then link it up with communism. Face the facts. Are atheists called militant by your christian bros or not? What are you afraid of? Is it wrong to call somebody a thief when he steals?

Is nigeria in bondage?

Why is nigeria still underdeveloped when properity is the main topic in most churches nowadays. I just came back from uk two months ago and what i observed is that most of the churches are being converted to clubs and bars etc. is god blessing them more than us when we are the ones that seem to seek him more on a regular basic unlike the white guys?

could it be the bible and koran that is keeping them in bondage?

Advice - I Was Intimate With My Best Friends Wife

I'm posting this on this thread as I need advice from the God fearing folks here, who I hope will be less judgemental, though I'm aware that I have betrayed a very good friend, let myself down and sinned before God I am married to a very beautiful woman whom I love so much. We are both based in Washington, though I visit the UK from time to time where I have some investments. Over the past 3 years, on 3 occasions, for some inexplicable, selfish reasons, I was intimate with my friends wife on a number of occasions we met in Washington. Though there was no actual s3x (I refused to go that far), we got really intimate on a number of occasions as I was caught up in a moment of weakness and adventure, which I now regret so very much. I feel I have betrayed the trust of a close fried and that I will never be forgiven by God. I also feel that I'm now being punished by God for this careless act. I have pondered confessing to my friend, and have decided against it as it will almost certainly ruin their marriage - they now have four kids.I definitely do not want to confess and break up his home - instead, I constantly pray to God to forgive me for what I did, for committing such a grave sin, as I know there are grave consequences for betrayal of this kind. Will God ever forgive me? What should I do?

Can't even get anything meaningful from ur post here........ Are u saying God can't forgive all kind of sins? WHERE IN THE BIBLE DOES IT TELL YOU GOD FORGIVES SINS ?GALATIANS 6 VS 7 Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reapCOLOSIANS 3 VS 25 But he that doeth wrong shall receive for the wrong which he hath done: and there is no respect of persons

Why Do People Become More Spiritual When They Are Poor?

I'm not trying to generalize here. This is just a subjective opinion but I've noticed that people tend to be more spiritual and religious when they are experiencing financial difficulty.

The Average Nigerian is Callous, Boastful, Arrogant, Miserly, Greedy, Wasteful, and Proud in Nature.All the traits above he cannot display because of his poor status.So he tries every means possible to become rich so he can show his real behavior. He turns to religion because that is the cheapest form of hope he receives. He fast and prays 24hours of 365days just to attain financial breakthrough because he is tired of living a fake life of Humility and kindness.Once God grants him his request, everyone sees the Lucifer in the once believed Angel.

Why Do Christians Preach Against Premarital Séx, Yet Practice It?

I have noticed that religous folks especially my fellow Christians preach against fornication and premarital se-x; the only problem is, almost 99.9% of them do not practice it. Why is that? For example, how many of my Christian brothers/sisters both married and unmarried were virgins before marriage and/or are still virgin now as singles? I think what we should be preaching against is adultery (Sleeping with another man's/woman's wife/husband respectively) and our advice to the singles/unmarried should be safe se-x NOT hell. I want to know your opinions.

Sex outside marriage is a sin.That a fact.2)the fact that you see xtian brothers and sisters preach againt sex and yet practice them is because they are sinners all in pretence.Op have come to undastand nowadays that if u trust humans spiritually you will end up been disappointment cos many of them only pretend.So the fact that dey disappoint you is not an excuse for you to join them.Take note;OTHERS MAY COMPROMISE BUT YOU SHOULDN'T AS A CHILD OF GOD

Can Someone Not Go To Church And Still Live A Life Of A True Christian?

Brethren,is it possible to live a life of a true christian without going to church? And while do we judge people for not going to church,without even trying to find out if the person had a quiet time with their God.

If you're a true Christian there must be a church u attend. You can't live a true Christian life without going to church. Been absent one or two Sundays for good reasons is a different thing altogether. However, someone can still be as church goer without true Christian living. A Christian must attend a church, or have u seen a player without a team?

Please Can Someone Help Me Find Where God Changed His Word From DEUTRONOMY 22:5

Please brother/sister,am confused.help me read DEUTRONOMY 22:5,if God have changed his word there,do me favour by leading me to the chapter and if possible the verse.THANKS my dear bro/sis. Wait to hear from you.....

^Because trouser covers n.akedness more than skirt. Does that scripture mention trouser? Even if you're reading it to mean trouser and skirts, doesn't women have female trouser? Besides, isn't that written to the Jews? The New Testament ONLY supports moderations and doesn't tell women what to wear or what not to wear. I do NOT by any means teach that a woman should dress n.aked but that scripture was between God and the Jews. If you're gonna obey that scripture, you'll need to read the WHOLE passage and follow other laws in the same passage. Besides, which is better - To wear trouser to church or not wear to church BUT wear outside the church during the week? Do you want me to quote the whole passage for you? GOSHEN YOU DON START AGAIN WHAT unclothedness IS SHE COVERING BY WEARING TROUSERS?MORE LIKE SHE IS ACCENTUATING HER HIPS, THIGHS AND BUTTOCKS ABI?GOSHEN IF WOMEN HAVE TROUSERS LIKE YOU SAY WHY DO MEN NOT HAVE SKIRTS?

Will You Deny Your Religion At A Gun Point?

This was a question a friend of mine asked me today.... Assuming there was war against Christians and they were being haunted and killed if they insisted they are christians, would you deny your religion at a gun point?? Wanna know your views

I will not only deny religion, I will deny God to stay alive. Then we can discuss with God later on the issue.

Does The New Testament Completely Rule Out The Significance Of The Old Testament

Does the new testament completely rule out the significance of the old testament?As some people just focus more on the new testament and maybe once in a while make references to the old testament!

The old testament is a beautiful book showing the universal and personal aspect of God and his relationship with his people who are called by his name,it reveals his love,mercy,jealousy,compassion,greatness,power,creativity,diversity,his supremacy,his will,his presence,his anger,his goodness and all that he is.The old testament is a recommended read to know the mind of God for us. The new testament is a beginning of reconciliation of the whole universe back to the creator through love that all may know and worship the one true God. Love never fails.

Finance And The Christian [should The Christian Be Rich Or Poor?] (family Only)

Ok. It's a major theme in some branded churches that the Christian should not be poor, but be very rich. And I have seen at least one atheist say that the Bible requires the Christian to give up everything and become poor. Also some poor dude was on this forum a little while ago complaining that it was ungodly men that were rich and it was a sin for the Christian to be rich. So I think the issue is quite relevant.Should the Christian be poor? Or should he be rich? What does the Bible say? What do you say?

No one should be rich. You work hard to get rich... or you get an inheritance.. or get lucky... No one is born with a right to be rich.. not even getting 'born again' would do that...

British Commander: IDF Most Moral Army World Has Ever Known

BRITISH COMMANDER: IDF MOST MORAL ARMY WORLD HAS EVER KNOWNRyan Jones : Jul 25, 2014 : Israel Today"No other army in the world has ever done more than Israel is doing now to save the lives of innocent civilians in a combat zone."IDF(Israel)aCol. Richard Kemp, the former commander of all British forces in Afghanistan, is in Israel this week to lend support to the military campaign in Gaza and to take on take on detractors who claim the Israeli army is perpetrating war crimes there."No other army in the world has ever done more than Israel is doing now to save the lives of innocent civilians in a combat zone," Kemp said in an interview with Channel 2 News, adding that when world leaders demand Israel do more, "perhaps Israel should ask what more it can do."Having served in both Iraq and Afghanistan, Kemp is intimately familiar with exactly the kind of enemy Israel is facing, and the environment in which it is fighting."Islamic extremists around the world use very similar tactics," the retired colonel explained, as he recalled Taliban using young children to attack his troops. "British soldiers have fought exactly this kind of enemy in Afghanistan and in Iraq. British soldiers understand what Israel is doing."Kemp went on to accuse some in the mainstream international media of culpability in Hamas' war crimes."The media, in some cases, bear responsibility for the killing that's taking place, because they are themselves projecting Hamas' desired propaganda," he said.Asked if he felt Israel could achieve total victory, if it could force a Hamas surrender, Kemp sounded doubtful."Inevitably, Israel's inexorable military force driving into Gaza will lead to the surrender of Hamas," he stated, before going on to note that such an outcome depended on far too many external forces.Could Israel accept the large number of soldiers that would die in such a war? Could Israel withstand international pressure long enough to achieve total victory? These are questions that many in Israel have long asked, and few believe that "yes" is the answer to either.Source: Breaking Christian News

Please All True Christians On Nairaland,my Friend Needs Your Honest Advise!!!!

My friend sam is in a relationship with a lady that he loves so much and she also loves him too but the problem is that they have different beliefs when it comes to matters of tithes and offering especially tithes.My friend believes tithes were practised as a requirement in the old covenant and was used as a means by God to feed the levites and priest who had no allotment in the land,he also believes that after christ resurrection,the temple became non existent, so he was not required to tithe but rather offer free will giving and contribution as his heart leads him.The lady believes that tithes after christ ressurection became a principle and so still keeps tithing....its now turning to an everyday debate and its almost threatening their relationship of 3years(note:both are very good christians)..please how can they reach a compromise and agree on what to do or whats the way forward for them?Please your sincere advise and contributions are welcome!

@DrummaBoy, weldone @OP, I think you have enough materials from all advice proffered here to help your friends make a decision. Its not such a big deal if both of them know tithing is NOT important to the Christian life. When I told my wife I stopped tithing, she was aghast and very afraid for our finances. However when she got a job some few months after and saw that I didn't lose my job as she expected, she relaxed. I didn't make it a law for her to stop and she didn't even let me know when she stopped though she still reserves 10% for God's work(as she calls it), but Mal 3:8-12 no longer scares her.I pray your friends realise God needs them as a whole sacrifice to him, not just 10% of their cash.

Who Originated The Prosperity Gospel

Who originated this brand of christianity that is ravaging the world today?

The concept of false teachers teaching false doctrines to reap of believers existed as far back as the time of the apostles. It just wasn't termed prosperity gospel then.2 Peter 2:1-3New International Version (NIV)False Teachers and Their Destruction2 But there were also false prophets among the people, just as there will be false teachers among you. They will secretly introduce destructive heresies, even denying the sovereign Lord who bought themabringing swift destruction on themselves. 2 Many will follow their depraved conduct and will bring the way of truth into disrepute. 3 In their greed these teachers will exploit you with fabricated stories. Their condemnation has long been hanging over them, and their destruction has not been sleeping.

God Never Wanted Man To Live Forever. He Had Always Planned We Would Die.

when you read gen 3:22, And the Lord God said, behold the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand and take also the tree of life, and eat and live forever.you will discover that it was not because of Adam's sin that we die today...BTW we need to start looking for that tree of life or we might just invent a jet to enter the sun....I.e physically entering heaven.

Read your bible again, MAN was not meant to DIE , he was meant to LIVE forever, however he failed the test of obedience and attracted the death penalty.Stop bitten around the Bush and tell me where to look in the bible....you guys have believe the bible so much that you are afraid to ask questions.

Will Jesus Have Bought A Jet?

I am wondering if Jesus had existed in our times, would you think he would have bought a jet?

@OP, i dont think He would have because He said: John 18:36 Jesus said, "My kingdom is not of this world. If it were, my servants would fight to prevent my arrest by the Jews. But now my kingdom is from another place." The NT teaches us that He had no fixed home since he traveled around preaching, teaching and healing."Foxes have holes and birds of the air have nests, but the Son of Man has nowhere to lay His head." (Luke 9:58)Todays Christ-likes have place to lay thier head, but this is not enough, they accumulates materials as if They are not willing to join thier master in His Kingdom. King David said, All these are vanity and vexation of the heart.Ecclesiastes 2:11 Yet when I surveyed all that my hands had done and what I had toiled to achieve, everything was meaningless, a chasing after the wind; nothing was gained under the sun.Ecclesiastes 2:26 To the man who pleases him, God gives wisdom, knowledge and happiness, but to the sinner he gives the task of gathering and storing up wealth to hand it over to the one who pleases God. This too is meaningless, a chasing after the wind.Ecclesiastes 2:17 So I hated life, because the work that is done under the sun was grievous to me. All of it is meaningless, a chasing after the wind.
