Change Your Ways by Zaheertyler(m): 4:42pm On Feb 24 |
This one thinks hell fire awaits him because of the sin he committed last year Can't you see that with that thinking you've already created hell for yourself Forgive yourself and make sure you change your ways by learning your lessons and not making the same mistakes Earth is a school so take sinning as an experience to learn and grow They're for you to experience Learn your lessons about what is right and wrong for you and grow Stop creating personal hell for yourselves |

Zaheertyler: See madness. So. when a bandit forgives himself, he is forgiven? Tinubu is making people go premium mad! |
Re: Change Your Ways by Zaheertyler(m): 6:38pm On Feb 24 |
Dtruthspeaker:He can atone for his sins By submitting himself to the laws that govern us humans You can send him to jail for 20 years and he will come out and still be a bandit lol But true forgiveness is between him and God He has to change his ways Open to the divinity inside of him and all of us Redemption is possible for everyman Because God knows mistakes are normal You call me mad for saying redemption is possible You're weird bro |

Zaheertyler: Now you.have changed post. You said, "he can forgive himself" and not he can atone for his sins. |

Dtruthspeaker:First step to atonement is forgiveness |
Re: Change Your Ways by MaxInDHouse(m): 6:33am On Feb 28 |
Zaheertyler: "Repentance" is the word not "forgiveness" Forgiveness is letting go of a wrongdoing while repentance is realizing the evil in what you did. So in forgiveness is 90% tendency to repeat the wrongdoing but 0% if it's repentance. The one forgiven haven't seen the bad effects of a wrongdoing that's why the load is no the offended not the offender but the repentant one is already overwhelmed so if given the opportunity to turn back the hand of the clock he will right his wrong. That's what REPENTANCE means! |
Re: Change Your Ways by Zaheertyler(m): 8:57am On Feb 28 |
MaxInDHouse:And atonement is? |
Re: Change Your Ways by MaxInDHouse(m): 9:13am On Feb 28 |
Zaheertyler:Willingness to go back and right your wrong so if anyone can do it in your behalf you owe your life to such a person because he is the one who bailed you out! |
Re: Change Your Ways by Zaheertyler(m): 9:45am On Feb 28 |
MaxInDHouse:You committed a crime and the judge sees that you're willing to change and frees you That means you owe the judge your life? Or you can make the judge proud by actually changing and living a better life? |
Re: Change Your Ways by MaxInDHouse(m): 2:04pm On Feb 28 |
Zaheertyler: It's not the judge but someone who has the power to right the wrong. For instance you mistakenly hit someone with your car and he died instantly surely you can't reverse that but what if someone has the power to raise the one you killed back to life? That's what i'm saying! |

MaxInDHouse:I will thank the someone Show my gratitude and be more careful next time... But can we leave fantasy world for a bit God put us in control Sometimes we lose control of our lives and become bound to the devil by giving him control...we become miserable as there is nothing good with that idiot we find the teachings and life of Jesus along the line and we believe that it is the true embodiment of God consciousness and by following it we become transformed and free from the plans of the devil from our lives.. 1..freedom is a choice Jesus is just standing there waiting for you to choose as some people choose to be bound to the devil still because of pride and ego...ego is the fake identity we create for ourselves in the physical ,seen,or material reality but the spiritual or the unseen part of us or the internal or the immaterial is Paramount we forget that and that's what controls the physical...you can hide being miserable and sad on the inside but Jesus is standing at the door saying allow me show you the way to freedom just take of that garment called ego or fake identity.... 2..when you eventually follow his example and become free you actually owe him your life but not in that sense your talking lol.. |

Zaheertyler:Jesus will raise all the dead and correct all our wrong so all we need to do is accept him as our Lord (one has the right to teach us how we will no longer get into such mess again) That's what it means to accept Jesus as Lord. And since we can't reverse things we are guilty of all the evil we have committed in the past that has caused misery to others but as Jesus will correct all of that he is our saviour who paid for our wrongdoing. 1 Like 1 Share |

MaxInDHouse:How did he pay please....so if I believe in Jesus all my sins will be wiped away? Then I've seen a good reason to keep sinning and renewing my believe in him Mann Man had the spirit of God Through Adam he fell and he was driven away from God Jesus came to show the offspring of Adam the way back More like he sacrificed himself to be a bridge... Isn't that what love is? Sacrifice? You can call him lord I can call him the teacher Others can call him prophet It doesn't matter... |
Re: Change Your Ways by Zaheertyler(m): 8:36pm On Mar 02 |
MaxInDHouse:You just want me to accept him as lord and savior? Well to me was way more than that I don't have to accept him I know what he is and I follow him as a friend and teacher |

Zaheertyler:LORD means owner. TEACHER means tutor. PROPHET means message carrier. According to God's word a sinner is one who deliberately or unknowingly committed blunder and blunders do lead to death or cause suffering for others therefore the one who committed such blunder deserves to die as in cut off from among the living from that time onward the sinner has become a walking corpse sentenced to death awaiting execution that's why Jesus referred to all humans as the DEAD {Luke 9:60} Jesus came for two purposes first to teach us how we can avoid causing pain for others and secondly to pay for the blunders we committed in the past. So as someone who has come to pay we owe our existence to him that's why he is our Lord and as such we must do well to observe all the things he says and do exactly as he commanded. Matthew 27:18-20 Whoever refuses to accept Jesus as Lord and King only have the rest of his awaiting days for execution unlike those who have accepted him such a person will die but never to be raised from the dead. WHY? Because Jesus has no right to raise those who have rejected the antidote since they will continue to commit blunders and curse pain for themselves and others, God promised a Paradise where there will be no pain nor outcry so if Jesus should raise those who failed to accept him as Lord then suffering and pain will continue as they will always commit the blunders after all they don't want to agree that they need a perfect teacher like Jesus. That's why we must all accept him as Lord who has the right to give us orders on how to live our life! |

Zaheertyler: If you don't accept him as Lord then you won't be able to benefit yourself from the provision he is making. Of course he is a friend and teacher but only to those who accepted him as their owner/Lord. You can't be his friend if you refuse to see him as your Lord. WHY? He didn't make himself Lord neither did his disciples make him Lord it's the Almighty God who mandated it that for anyone to gain His approval we must accept Jesus as Lord/owner. That's why he said: "All authority has been given me in heaven and on the earth" Matthew 28:18 Peter said about Jesus: "Let all the house of Israel know for a certainty that God made him both Lord and Christ, this Jesus whom you executed on a stake.β Act 2:36 Whoever refuses to welcome the orderliness which God Himself instituted the wrath of God is upon such a person! Matthew 17:5 God is the King of the universe and we are all His children but for Him to declare one person as approved when you and i know for sure that mankind has made a mess of this planet means the one whom God declared as His approved son must be highly revered of course you know what that means if you want to gain the approval of a powerful king in your community nah would you just take his approved son as your friend/teacher or Lord who will help you gain access to his father's heart? John 3:18 |
