MzNelly: There are two sides to a coin and sometimes they fall the other way. The same Bible says in Exodus 34:7 Keeping mercy for thousands, forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin, and that will by no means clear the guilty; visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children, and upon the children's children, unto the third and to the fourth generation. That's the other side. God made a promise to Abraham that is evident to this day in the state of Israel. But the mistake of Abraham in being to hasty led to Ishmael whose descendants include Arabs that antagonize Israel. So Abraham's mistake had repercussions. God didn't curse all generations. In fact the only curse involving other people was in Gen 3:15 when God said he will put enmity between the serpent's seed and the seed of the woman. God only cursed Adam, Eve and the serpent but because of the wrong actions the three took all humanity suffered. Thomas Edison's ingenuity helped generations and multitudes afterwards enjoy light and recorded music. Abacha's wickedness and looting costs Nigeria till this day. Darwin's theory has led to the rise of many atheists TILL NOW since he explained creation without God. So the reason why Adam's sin caused the death of all men is simply repercussions. He must have sen how Cain killed his younger brother. Thats what rebellion does. BTW in Gen 5:24 Enoch walked with God and God helped him escape death. His case is even BETTER THAN Jesus. Jesus died and rose again. Enoch and Elijah did not die. Enoch teleported to heaven while chariots took Elijah there. Even if God didn't curse Adam, Eve and the serpent for the wrong their evil would still have been occurred given their new found knowledge of it. That's why they didn't like being naked and attempted to cover up themselves with fig leaves as one would expect from primitives. Their knowledge made them ashamed of their unclothedness, afraid of being with God who made them naked and made them to proud to apologize. Instead they played the blame game. So even if God didn't curse them they would still have messed creation up. In conclusion, there are 3 magic words. Please, which is used to make a request. Thanks, when a request is granted and Sorry, when a request has been disobeyed. Why didn't Adam simply apologize for eating the fruit. Till today atheists still blame God for planting the tree and not Adam for eating it. They are impolite, and proud ingrates with respect to their Creator. 3 Likes 2 Shares |

BeastOfNoNation: Don't look for evidence in religion. It's confusion you will find. Stay right there in your room and tell God with all seriousness, "God if you truly exist please reveal Yourself to me." He knows how best to lead you away from confusion and give you a conviction that no one can take away from you except you. |

keenn: •He can give you direction and help you to know exactly why you are here. You may set great goals, achieve them and be called successful but when you have not agreed with the goal behind your being born to the world- which you didn't set- you would still be a successful failure. He can give you greater ability to help people and enjoy the fulfillment that comes from it. • He can protect you from dangers of human wickedness, foolishness or ignorance, including protecting you from yourself like a mother protects her baby from unintended self-harm • He can provide for you when you obviously need help. "Obviously" I said because many people wonder why prayers don't get answered while they spend time asking God to do both what God has given them ability to do and what God is meant to do. God is principled. He doesn't answer irresponsible prayers. It is okay to ask for guidance, not asking God to take over ones own responsibility. • He can give you peace and joy in the midst of the worst of events and make you come out of the experience a better person. My own experience is that I had more success when I started depending on God while focusing on my own responsibility- not doing one and leaving the other. - I passed exams "more brilliant" classmates failed - I escaped making wrong decisions that superficially looked like the best (an example is a job I got on a platter of gold in a place where Boko Haram started attacking after I decided not to take it by divine guidance immediately after NYSC) - If you knew the kind of fears that once ruled my mind, you can appreciate what it means to have peace like I do when everyone around expect me to panic. It all boils down to believing in Jesus Christ and living by His word- the lifestyle of His Kingdom. God does His part, you do your part. |

It is only christians who are wrong!!! Atheists know that virgins cannot get impregnated by invisible semen that falls from the sky!!! Those beliefs are exclusive to the lunatics who wake up early every Sunday, to go and bow down to an image of a man hanging on a termite infested piece of wood!!! |

Godsfamilymemba: Which god? There are numerous gods, if humans like yourself should be believed. I'm guessing that you mean the supreme oga one, but the chances of other gods eavesdropping on your private conversation are high. They could just deceive you. |

keenn:Hi Keen, How about a study of thousands ? There were 17,809 people in the German scientific study of atheists. [/b] It was a very large model as far as psychological experiments go.” This came as quite a shock to us as we studied patient after patient.” The results of this study have unnerved even the most stoic scientists, physicians and researchers. Many psychiatrists and psychologists throughout the world found that atheism/ agnosticsm is a sign or warning of a more serious mental illness already present or in the process of developing. Atheists or people who are very strident about their atheism are heavily prone to mental illness: |

ScienceWatch: can u attach your reference if I am to agree with u, I should not also be in a hurry to dismiss that most in psyc ward patient are religious and more so grew up in religious settings. this is evident from the involuntary daily devotion(that has been ingrained in their head over the years due to constant act), possession of religious books and merchandise, family prayers during visitation..... |
