religion
noun
1. the belief in and worship of a
superhuman controlling power,
especially a personal God




Jesus came to preach a religion, it is called Christianity.

Secular dictionaries cannot explain what religion in this context means. Adam was the first person to practice religion, can you guess how?

adam believed in and worship the supreme being that is how he practiced religion. The dictionary is on point.

OLAADEGBU:


Only shepherds feed sheep not wolves.

your later day heretic churches must be the wolves in this case.

Wrong! Adam knew and believed in God before he fell. It was when he began to cover up with leaves that started religion.

"But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye shut up the kingdom of heaven against men: for ye neither go in yourselves, neither suffer ye them that are entering to go in" (Matthew 23:13).

See the reason why Jesus demands that you let His people go.

Raphael81:



Did you hear me say anything that religion will save a soul? Try to learn how to comprehend bro

So you don't believe your religious practices will save your soul?

OLAADEGBU:


So you don't believe your religious practices will save your soul?

Do u understand English bro or u pretend to be smart it is only Christ that saves bro

OLAADEGBU:


Wrong! Adam knew and believed in God before he fell. It was when he began to cover up with leaves that started religion.

sorry, religion is belief in a supreme being and its attendant actions.

So adam already practiced religion before the fall .

2 Timothy 4:3-4

3 For the time will come when
people will not put up with sound
doctrine. Instead, to suit their own
desires, they will gather around them a
great number of teachers to say what
their itching ears want to hear. 4
They will turn their ears away from the
truth and turn aside to myths.





You see why one shouldn't follow endtime Churches like yours in their endtime heresies?

Raphael81:

Feel free and tell us how faith in Jesus alone will save your soul?

Ubenedictus:

Wrong again. Adam had a relationship with God before the fall not religion. Religion is trying to cover up your unclothedness with your own work of righteousness.

Sorry, I know you are a member of an endtime Church that teaches endtime heresies so i am not surprised that true historic Christian teaching seem odd to you.



The bible talks about a delusion in the last days it has fallen on the endtime heretics, you cant even differentiate historic Christian teaching from the dung you were fed in your church, it is a pity.

OLAADEGBU:


Wrong again. Adam had a relationship with God before the fall not religion. .

Please show me the dictionary that says:



Religion is trying to cover up your unclothedness with your work of righteousness.



Or did you manufacture that one from thin air as usual.

"Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son" (Colossians 1:13).

You need to first of all be delivered from the powers of darkness that is holding you from seeing the light of the gospel truth.

You almost saw the light. Secular dictionaries whose authors are not born again cannot help you to see the light.

Oho go and sleep bro

I have slept and woken up. Can you explain to us how faith alone in Christ is suppose to save you?

They
perish because they refused to love the
truth and so be saved. 11 For this reason
God sends them a powerful delusion so that
they will believe the lie 12 and so that all
will be condemned who have not believed
the truth but have delighted in wickedness

now that the dictionary show your definition is Wrong. You go and accuse the dictionary.








Dictionary defines words and it is competent competent in doing so. That shows you are Wrong.

Isn't Cain and Abel the first set of people to worship God in the bible.

I agree with the Scriptures that says anyone who refuses to genuinely embrace the gospel truth will be given over to a "powerful delusion" by God. Those who refuse come to the gospel light will be given over into darkness. The gospel truth says:

"For by grace are you saved through faith: and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God. Not of works, lest any man should boast" (Ephesians 2:8,9).

We can see that no one will be saved through their own goodness, good works, self righteousness, religious works, not even by our own faith. It is only by the grace of God for faith is the medium God uses to extend His grace to us.

You should rather consult the Holy Spirit who is the author of the Bible.

No. Adam and Eve, Adam first.

BlueAngel444:

You can say "traditional religion."

OLAADEGBU:


No. Adam and Eve, Adam first.



You can say "traditional religion."

I didn't say first people on earth oh. First to worship God has recorded. Adam and Eve were never recorded to worship God.

Various religions are based on the traditions of men, their believes and ideas of who God is.

Depends on what you consider as service.

Adam and Eve served God before The Fall. We can never know how long there lived in Eden before the Fall, cos time wasn't counting on them.

It takes the grace of God for a catholic to give his life to Christ ,.....those Catholics and their church doctrines and traditions hen.....
.with God all things are possible

(1) how can u tell if one is a born again,(2) what do u mean by it's the Grace of God for a Catholic to giv his lyf to Christ?

Raphael81:
Whenever I read your posts I always try to see if you are a rational being or just an anti-catholic who sits somewhere to orchestrate confusion, if at your age you still have a shallow reasoning then its a big pity for for. If you are not comfortable with Catholics, you can either go to hell or wait on the last day since you worship a denominational God, instead of you to intercede for the souls of your family members and yourself, you just abuse the privilege of the internet to spew out rubbish and hate words..... When you die sir, God will never ask you for ur denomination. Thank you

i wish i can pay u for dis... Thank u

Just as your endtime Churches have refused to accept the truth and are now given to powerful delusion.

Or the pillar and bulwark of truth, on whom has been bestowed the spirit. The Catholic Church established by Jesus.

worship noun 1. the feeling or expression of reverence and adoration for a deity.


Did Adam feel of express reverence and adoration for God?

Ubenedictus:




worship
noun
1. the feeling or expression of
reverence and adoration for a deity.



Did Adam feel of express reverence and adoration for God?

The much recorded about Adam doesn't state much of what he did not do, not to talk of how he felt.
The only interaction Adam had with God was on a defensive note like one would speak to a powerful friend and then God made him garments of skin.


But did Adam worship God, don't thick so, in fact it was Seth his son who during His time began to call upon the Lord.


Cain was the one who began worship because he brought the first sacrifice to adore and seek God's favor
