Joshthefirst: Smith wigglesworth and co.

Really?. . .

Here is an entry about the guy I got from the internet. . .

"Wigglesworth claimed to have healed numerous people suffering from cancer, which he described as 'a living evil spirit'. He believed that ninety percent of diseases were 'satanic in origin'. His methods often involved hitting, slapping or punching the afflicted part of the body. On a number of occasions his approach[b] to persons suffering from stomach complaints was to punch them in the stomach[/b], sometimes with such force that it propelled them across the room. When challenged on this, his response was "I don't hit them, I hit the devil". When confronted with the failure of a healing, Wrigglesworth's response was to accuse the sufferer of being "full of unbelief" ". . . .

Is this your evidence for your god healing amputees?. . .A person that believe diseases are of satanic origin?. . .The report also said he claimed to have healed a man that had no feet. . . grin. .He is no different from TB Joshu who claims to raise people from the dead. . .TB Joshua has his on TV all of Wigglesworth miracles are just anecdotal. . .People are know to tell lies for their various religions all of the time, he is also a part of them. . .

A blind man from birth was as a result of bringing glory to God according to jesus. I guess God glorifies itself in children being slaughtered in their hostels or what could be the reason why it couldn't stop the monsters from carrying out such evil act. FREE WILL MAYBE

Sure, people been killed in their various churches which they call house of god by BH brings glory to their imaginary god all of the time. . .A god that fails to protect people that come to worship him in his own house. . .Yet the same goons will be all over the place telling us that we are nothing without this same imaginary entiry that can not even protect his own in his own house of worship. . .

This crafty fool is here again, you know very well that i have no time for your foolishness. . .What has evolution got to do with the fact that you imaginary god can not heal amputees?. . .I have already provided a video of a guy whose amputated arms were restored by doctors. . .A guy that lost most part of his face was given a new face(face transplant). . .Baldness now has a cure, while your imaginary god can only depend on fools like you to be scaring others with the imaginary sadistic idea of hell for not believing their myths, lies and crazy ideas. . .Deluded goon. . .

You remain a fool for believing in the fairy tales writing by the ancient jews and romans about their imaginary god. . .Yor imaginary god is not my maker, your imaginary god can not make anything. . .the person that wrote psalm remains a fool and any body that believes in it also remains a fool. . . .The question is why does your god whom you believe is still in the business of throwing out divine miracles unable to heal amputees?. . .The answer is pretty simple, he remains imaginary. . . as such can not heal anything or any body. . .

I think you need to be reminded of what you are as you tend to forget too soon:

"The fool has said in his heart, There is no God..." (Psalm 53:1).

It is much more reasonable to believe that a published book has no printer than to believe that there is no God. Who in his right mind would ever believe that no one compiled its pages, that no one produced the graphic art, and that no one printed the book. The publication happened by chance.... from nothing. There was no paper, no ink, no cardboard and no glue. That the paper just came into being (from nothing), then trimmed itself into perfectly straight edges. All the words then fell into place, forming coherent sentences and then the graphic art appeared. The pages fell into numerical order, and finally the book bound itself up.

The fact that there was a printer is axiomatic, so it would be intellectually insulting to even begin to argue for the case of the printer's existence. For the same reason, the Bible does not enter into the case for God's existence. It simply begins by saying, "In the beginning God..." (Genesis 1:1)

"It takes no brains to be an "atheist". Any stupid person can deny the existence of the supernatural power because man's physical senses cannot detect it. But there cannot be ignored the influence of the conscience, the respect we feel for the Moral Law, the mystery of the first life... or the marvellous in which the universe moves about us on this planet earth. All these evidence the handiwork of the beneficent Deity.... That Deity is the God of the Bible and Jesus Christ, His Son" - Dwight Eisenhower

Thank God that you at least know how foolish it sounds to begin to argue against printers of books. Likewise, when I look at a painting, how can I know that there was a painter. Do you need faith to know that there was a painter? The same principle applies to the existence of God.

I believe I have said something of this manner to you before:


How many years will it take you to see the foolishness of your argument? You try to debunk God by stating that there are many different concepts of the nature of God?

That's as reasonable as saying there is no real naira because counterfeits flood the market.

And when a theist speak of God and of his attributes, he might be adressing the universal fact of the creator.

You delude yourself, that's why the bible treats you dismissively as a fool.

no actually. Reasonable men look at the universe and its fine tuning and understand there is a God, and a conscious one at that. You are the one living in a false concept that you have to greatly fuel and restate to yourself to uphold.

Just look at how convicted you are in your thinking, to dismiss all cases of healing because of a case of non-healing, to dismiss every case of a revelation or the supernatural and all such stuff just to favour your dogmatic convictions. Suit yourself then. Reasonable people don't have time or energy to accept that position.

You look at hypocrisy and deny faithfulness, you look at design and blame chance.

sorry, as I have said before in another thread, people follow the christian religion without subscribing to the teachings of Jesus Christ. Those who do change others. There is a radical life change involved in christianity. Testimonies in real life bear witness. Go and tell that to the people who quit school after forging their results when they became christians, or the policemen who stopped taking bribes after they got born-again.

so which kind of evidence do you seek? Scientific evidence? You do know scientific evidence is not extra-ordinary and can never prove God?

Super-natural evidence? Remain open minded. God might just visit you. If you claim you don't know the answer, then what right have you to reject the ones proffered by others so vehemently? Especially the ones about God.

If God does visit you in a unique way, accept him then. As I have, as others have.

I reject them all because they do not have evidence. . .What am i to do with claims that lack any evidence?. . .

Joshthefirst: sorry, as I have said before in another thread, people follow the christian religion without subscribing to the teachings of Jesus Christ. Those who do change others. There is a radical life change involved in christianity. Testimonies in real life bear witness. Go and tell that to the people who quit school after forging their results when they became christians, or the policemen who stopped taking bribes after they got born-again.


What are you saying?. . .Many people do good without any belief in Jesus. . .There is NO evidence what ever to show that those that believe in Jesus are better human beings than those that do not. . .What are you saying?. . .You just keep repeating falsehoods. . .There are atheist, muslims, buddist and hindu police men that don't take bribes at all. . .I am surrounded by bible believing christians like you here in Nigeria, and so far they are have shown that they are very immoral and corrupt. . .They judge, steal, tell lies, condemn people, they don't like others that are not like them or share their beliefs, they always want others to accept their beliefs or they see them as bad people etc. . .Christians are NOT better than non christians any where. . .

You've got no excuse, fella.

"For the invisible things of Him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse" (Romans 1:20).

We operate on two different wavelengths. You see this guy and start rejoicing in your God that you're better than him. You think he specifically created him like that to make you understand he's a powerful and ever present God.

I see the guy and I'm even more convince there's no God.

In case you believe he was born this way because of his mother's sin, I have to remind you that a kind God can't/shouldn't be this vindictive. In case you say he created the guy that way so I can come to God- I'll say he wasted his time and failed miserably. he's too petty to be worth anyone's time. And here's my one finger salute to him for eternity and thereafter.

P.S. I don't know anything about the guy in the video but disabilities like these are as a result of Genetic or drugs taken by the mother during pregnancy (Thalidomide comes to mind). Again, it has nothing to do with God.
