MizMyColi:


Errrmmmm,
Is mrpresident a female.

What's with this guilt-tripping now?
I didn't ask you to leave,

Maybe you thought I was the one who quoted you?

I haven't told anyone off na, even if I have, then its because they resorted to insults and or denigrative comments/ridicule.
Capisce?

MizMyColi:
Hi AirborneLacer

AirborneLacer:


Bae na Bible class I dey so

LoL

Oya Shift for me, lemme siddon near you

MizMyColi:


LoL
A bit I guess.
Not bad tho'

Still trying to figure out that riddle.

MizMyColi:



LoL

Oya Shift for me, lemme siddon near you

rationalmind:


You shouldn't stress yourself looking for the answer since you appear creative enough. You can as well give it any answer you want. In fact, it need not be the same with his(Mrpresident).

Diverse interpretations can be given to any verse and each interpretation can be argued to be the right one.

A good example is Malachi 3:10.

Thanks.

Hmmm.....that verse.
Waow! It's been a while.

Care to share your paradigm?

AirborneLacer:


Bae you sure you're ready for this?

RationalMind, what interpretation have you got for Tithing which was recorded in Malachi 3:10?

Even if I have nothing to say, lemme just be assimilating na.

Okay between me and you now, I still consider the bible as a life transforming book and tbh, under the right kind of illumination, I've never been mislead by it.
Not opening it for now is just a personal decision.


Errmmm, Hun, I'll likely post some controversial topics later today.
Biko, keep giving me grace, e hear

It can only get better.

rationalmind:


To start with, I don't play around or hide under the umbrella of esoteric/hidden meanings, the type peddled by Mrpresident and his ilk. I take biblical verses as it is.

Now that you know where I'm coming from, that verse in my opinion strongly advocates tithing. I interpret it as a biblical injunction to tithe.

MrPresident1:


Whatever you think, is your business. Opinions are ubiquitous, and don't cost much.

If you were as open minded (and not completely closed minded) as you and your atheist ilk pretend to be, the interpretation of that verse should have in the least created some curiosity in you, a willingness to explore what was hitherto beyond you.

Who cares? believe what you want, last time I checked it's a free world

rationalmind:


I do things when I have strong reasons to do them.

I don't drink cos I have no reason to drink.

I don't smoke cos I have no reason to smoke

I don't womanise cos I have no reason to do so

So also, I don't believe in God cos I have no reason to believe in him.

I dismiss all notions of God and organised religion.

MizMyColi:



LoL

Oya Shift for me, lemme siddon near you

rationalmind:


I thought as much.

I can bet my life on it you have your own interpretation of that verse.

rationalmind:

urheme:


this post is so technical,
no lacuna to lay ambush,

if all these don't are you then you must be a complete gentleman, the man of God that we are looking for, your type are rear.

on contrary, the carnal men of this age do the first 4 phrase with no reason at all, and then believe in God because of the fear of death and forgiveness for all atrocities committed.

MrPresident1:


Please do not be distracted, it would be very beneficial to keep focus. You can see how rationalmind has tried to create a distraction by introducing the subject of tithing. Was that what we were discussing?

Keep in mind that I earlier told you that multifarious translations of the Bible are with evil intentions. With people like rationalmind, the intentions have been realized.

MizMyColi:
Hi AirborneLacer







@Mrpresident1
The buildings may be ideals, religous strongholds, things we might have erected which now sand as an opposing barrier?

MrPresident1:


Your do not possess a scientific or logical mind.

That riddle was long drawn out between myself and OP, I suggest you look through it again. Or perhaps you are not as rational minded as you would want us to believe?

Mrpresident1: Whatever you think, is your business. Opinions are ubiquitous, and don't cost much.

MizMyColi:


oukei!

Here's wishing you the best on your journey.

urheme:


keep focus on what kpam...
rationalmind just gave a perfect interpretation of malachi 3 -10 you can't even prove him wrong.

the thread is not for bible quiz, as far as I can remember, mizmycoli was on a long spiritual voyage to self spiritual discovery/recovery and did briefed this forum that she has long abandon the bible.

there is a thread for catholic, perhaps you should go and win souls there.

MizMyColi:

musKeeto:

Tenks
You too.

rationalmind:


Thanks

Equally wishing you the best on your journey to atheism

MrPresident1:


Brilliant. yeah, the sanctuary is an ideal, it was/is also a stronghold. It was called the beauty of His ornament. But there is still a critical point that you are missing.

To understand the Bible, the KJV Bible, you must be able to create linkages.

Now let us take a look again;

Mark 13 King James Version (KJV)
And as he went out of the temple, one of his disciples saith unto him, Master, see what manner of stones and what buildings are here!

The stones and buildings are the persons in the Sanctuary, the Temple.

[b]Lamentations 2:7
The Lord hath cast off his altar, he hath abhorred his sanctuary, he hath given up into the hand of the enemy the walls of her palaces; they have made a noise in the house of the Lord, as in the day of a solemn feast.[/b]

The Sanctuary/Temple is a place where the 'stones' and 'buildings' were living.

Xcapist:
I said this once, I'll say it again. MizMyColi is like a bridge that connects the best of two worlds; Atheism and Theism. It's an unlikely and apparently contradictory role by she seem to be playing it well and with much grace. And you really can't go wrong with love and compassion, can you? One other person that I similarly appreciate for his worldview is Ymodolus. I subscribe to your statement of 'faith' bro.

If religious people could relinguish their hubristic need to always be absolutely right about everything based on some ancient millenia old text and focus more on being more loving, kind and compassionate then religion will not be a seed of discord among us. God bless you MizMyColi. God bless you Ymodolus. God bless all Secular Humanists everywhere. God bless all peace loving people, God bless us all. And God bless me May we all grow in Grace and Love and find Inner Peace as we live out our respective Truths.
