The name of Jesus is sharper than 2 edged sword, in the name of jesus every knee shall bow and every tougue confess that jesus is the lord. I want to urge all Christians to depend on the name of jesus, nothing shall by any means hurt them. You don't need to carry any weapon. Whenever uou are confronted with threats from terrorists, just shout JESUS, HE is every ready to prove HIMSELF. try this and thank me later . 1 Like |

Islie:Pastors contributed alot to the mess, by not telling their congregation to pray while being killed. Israel where the Jesus was born is ruthless in dealing with terrorists, and when it's time to pray they know how to do it more |

Wow, such a different tone from the sayings in 2014/15.... Reality has berthed on the shores of the church and the RCCG in particular. The question now is, how can a sheep become a lion at age.?? |

Kobojunkie:Luke 22:35-38 (KJV) And he said unto them, When I sent you without purse, and scrip, and shoes, lacked ye any thing? And they said, Nothing. Then said he unto them, But now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip: and he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one. For I say unto you, that this that is written must yet be accomplished in me, And he was reckoned among the transgressors: for the things concerning me have an end. And they said, Lord, behold, here are two swords. And he said unto them, It is enough. ITS TIME TO WAKE UP COZ OUR GENERATION CANNOT BE THE LAST GENERATION TO SERVE GOD IN NOGERIA :LETS (1)FAST (2)PRAY (3)UNITE OURSELVES IN LOVE &have a common front and never be divided by the agents of ISLAMISATION AGENDA and Satan who is their base(4) Let's be well armed with our spiritual weapons Eph 6:12. those who have sword and guns should train others for the needful times coz even NEHEMIAH in the bible when they were rebuilding the Jerusalem wall were well harmed and ones the enemies attacked the were in uniyy to fight back till they accomplished the work. |

It's until both Muslims and Christians faithfuls come together and work in one accord to achieve common goal(end Nigeria's problems) will there be peace in this country... And i don't think that will ever happen because we're not the same... We're not one....Religion is Nigeria's biggest problem..... And Nigeria unlike most other countries has many diverses of ethnic groups, tribes, cultures and languages.... Understanding is the first thing to outstanding results.... Everyone is fighting for where they belong... I'm a Yoruba, Igbo, Hausa, Tiv, Idoma, e.t.c .... I'm a Christian, I can't deny my faith but we have to come together.... If not, we will keep suffering, mourning, and complaining in this country.... #writer |

Lighthouse50:Evil in this regard don't mean when your enemy wants to kill you. It's sad modern day Christianity discarded the old testament. Read it...it's still scriptures...the bible never asked us to be cowards, in the bible were many instances when God commanded the Israelites to go after their enemies, also the story of Elijah raining down fire. You don't understand scriptures more than Adeboye. These are different times. |

/. The only thing the Nigerian version of Jesus has achieved in terms of security is leading his followers to untimely death. How come other Christian nations do not succumb to this "do not revenge" doctrines? Name any country inhabited by sane beings that will get her citizens murdered daily and the moronic citizens will be looking forward to Jesus to come and save them? / |

Lighthouse50:The bible is not all about Christ. Moses, Elijah, Abraham where all in there. Even Jesus at a point picked the big stick when merchants were polluting the church, turning it to a market place. The originators of modern day Christianity- Romans were warlords. |

Kobojunkie: What does Matthew 5:39 mean? The Sermon on the Mount, which began early in chapter 5, contains difficult concepts for human nature to accept. Jesus is setting a seemingly impossible standard for those who would enter the kingdom of heaven (Matthew 5:20). Refusing to murder is not enough: don't even insult another in anger (Matthew 5:21–22). Not committing adultery is not enough: don't even intentionally lust (Matthew 5:27–28). His larger point is that none are righteous enough to enter heaven, based on their own good deeds (Matthew 5:48). Everyone, no matter how "holy" they may seem, must receive forgiveness of sins and righteousness through faith in Christ. This verse is often badly misunderstood, due to two ideas that are less common today: lex talionis and the idea of being slapped on the cheek. In the prior verse (Matthew 5:38), Jesus referred to a rule in the Old Testament (Deuteronomy 19:21) called the lex talionis, often summarized as "eye for an eye." After thousands of years of Christian influence, and in fact because of that influence, modern people often think this as a cruel standard. In truth, God established this to limit violence and revenge. The point of "eye for an eye" was that punishment is to be proportional to the crime, rather than an ever-escalating cycle of revenge. Jesus does not dispute the legal aspects of "eye for an eye," so far as they apply to a courtroom or the government. But in personal terms, He sets a much more challenging standard. Limiting revenge is not God's intent for the hearts of His people. Refusing revenge is God's will and Jesus' command to His followers (Romans 12:19). This does not mean Christians cannot flee, nor does it mean that blatant violence and evil should be met with total pacifism (Luke 22:36). It does mean that so far as we're able, Christians are not to "return evil for evil" (Romans 12:20–21). This is consistent with Jesus' comments about turning the other cheek. In the ancient world, the right hand was always assumed to be dominant. Jesus specifically refers to the "right cheek," here." That implies a backhanded movement: to slap someone on the right cheek, with the right hand, is more intimidation and abuse than mayhem. Even in the modern world, the term "slap in the face" is used in reference to insults and slights. To "turn the other cheek" implies taking that insult and accepting that another might be on the way. In short, Christ's command here does not mean [B]you must do nothing while someone beats you into a bloody pulp.[/b] He is speaking to believers who will experience persecution and hate from the world (Matthew 5:11–12). The proper Christian response to discrimination, mocking, or insults is to simply let it go: "don't resist the evil person." Instead, prove that such acts are not worth a response. |

kals4luv990:Have you not read where Jesus Christ when they chase you in a city. Flee to another. Have you not read where he told us to be faithful even unto death. Have you not read when he explained the horrors in matthew 10 where he said we will be hated by all nations for his sake. He ask us to flee and even when caught, we should remain faithful to death. There he said we shovld not fear those who kill the body. 1 Like |
