EmmaTay: I'll be [size=15pt]METHUSELAH[/size],U all know why

sadeiyare: The only thing said about him was that he lived 969yrs and died, is there any other why ?

SMH @ sadeiyare. How can you say that about Methuselah?
How can you say "The only thing said about him was that he lived 969yrs and died, is there any other why?"
Well the other why, was that the name Methuselah by itself is prophetic.
Neighbors regarded Methuselah with great fear because they knew that something bad or unpleasant will happen when he Methuselah dies,
so they dreaded the death of Methuselah and were thankful to God each day they wake up to find and see Methuselah still alive and not yet dead
You do know what happened after Methuselah died. Right?
I doubt the cemetery seminary makes known this.

[size=16pt]Would like to be Elisha for a day
So I can say, "Hear the word of the LORD. This is what the LORD says:
"About this time tomorrow, a gallon or garawa of GARRI will sell for a 100 NAIRA"" [/size]

obadiah777: BRAH DONE WENT AWOL. MIA. MAYBE HE IS WANTED BY THE INTERPOL FOR SPREADING THAT FALSE TRINITY DOCTRINE AND HE IS IN HIDING

No. Undercover cloak-and-dagger activities

1Co 8:4 As concerning therefore the eating of those things that are offered in sacrifice unto idols, we know that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is none other God but one
1Co 8:5 For though there be that are called gods, whether in heaven or in earth, (as there be gods many, and lords many,)
1Co 8:6 But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him.
1Co 8:7 Howbeit there is not in every man that knowledge: for some with conscience of the idol unto this hour eat it as a thing offered unto an idol; and their conscience being weak is defiled.
1Co 8:8 But meat commendeth us not to God: for neither, if we eat, are we the better; neither, if we eat not, are we the worse.
1Co 8:9 But take heed lest by any means this liberty of yours become a stumblingblock to them that are weak.
1Co 8:10 For if any man see thee which hast knowledge sit at meat in the idol's temple, shall not the conscience of him which is weak be emboldened to eat those things which are offered to idols;
1Co 8:11 And through thy knowledge shall the weak brother perish, for whom Christ died?
1Co 8:12 But when ye sin so against the brethren, and wound their weak conscience, ye sin against Christ.
1Co 8:13 Wherefore, if meat make my brother to offend, I will eat no flesh while the world standeth, lest I make my brother to offend.

Acts 15:28-29 NLT
28 For it seemed good to the Holy Spirit
and to us to lay no greater burden on you than these few requirements
29 You must abstain from eating food offered to idols, from consuming blood
or the meat of strangled animals, and from intimate immorality.
If you do this, you will do well. Farewell."

Acts 21:25 NLT
"As for the Gentile believers, they should do what we already told them in a letter:
They should abstain from eating food offered to idols,
from consuming blood or the meat of strangled animals,
and from intimate immorality."

Acts 21:25 KJV
And concerning the Gentiles who believe,
we have written and concluded that they observe no such thing,
except only that they keep themselves from things offered to idols,
and from blood, and from things strangled, and from fornication


Same Paul said NO in Acts 15:28-29 and Acts 21:25

1 Co 8:4-13 must have been after the Peter vision if not why now the "Paul turning a blind eye to eating food offered to idols" stance.

JeSoul: Lol@topic,
the only thing that is NOT okay to eat on that plate is the egg. The darn thing is not cooked enough

Seriously, those verses you quoted should be taken in context of living in a certain society and certain foods/practices going hand in hand - the problem is not necessarily the food - but rather what the consumption of the food in that context and in that setting (offered to idols) would imply - that you approved of and served the idol. If you took those verses literally then what would you do with this one?

1 Timothy 4:1-4 NIV >>

1 The Spirit clearly says that in later times some will abandon the faith and follow deceiving spirits and things taught by demons.
2 Such teachings come through hypocritical liars, whose consciences have been seared as with a hot iron.
3 They forbid people to marry and order them to abstain from certain foods, which God created to be received with thanksgiving by those who believe and who know the truth.
4 For everything God created is good, and nothing is to be rejected if it is received with thanksgiving, because it is consecrated by the word of God and prayer

Except for black pudding others are red herrings, intended to be misleading or distracting.

So it can be taken you are down with eating black pudding then?

and that 1 Timothy 4:1-4 is your validation?

tpia@:
Btw, op
Why are you so fascinated with the english?

Why?
The European fascination of black pudding
and to question the validity of eating black pudding

Yummy, typical full English breakfast.

From this breakfast plate, which out of sausage, bacon and black pudding is now OK to eat and why or why not?
You can throw in ham sandwich, pepperoni, barbecue spare ribs, sweet & sour pork, hotdog, belly pork etc in the mix
however more particular about or interested in black pudding

Acts 15:28-29 NLT

ATMC (f) would notice the image "changing of the guard" here

Genesis 1:26 - And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness:
and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea,
and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth,
and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth

Genesis 1:27 - So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.

Genesis 5:1 - This is the book of the generations of Adam. In the day that God created man, in the likeness of God made he him

Genesis 5:2 - Male and female created he them; and blessed them, and called their name Adam, in the day when they were created.

Genesis 5:3 - And Adam lived an hundred and thirty years, and begat a son in his own likeness, after his image; and called his name Seth:

- ATMC (f) and I understand each other over the dramatic or big image change.

Also giving a lot of information clearly but in few words and sometimes cryptically

Genesis 3:14 - And the LORD God said unto the serpent,
Because thou hast done this, thou art cursed above all cattle,
and above every beast of the field; upon thy belly shalt thou go,
and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life

Genesis 3:17 - To Adam he said,
"Because you listened to your wife and ate from the tree about which I commanded you,
'You must not eat of it,' "Cursed is the ground because of you;
through painful toil you will eat of it all the days of your life

Genesis 3:19 - In the sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread,
till thou return unto the ground; for out of it wast thou taken:
for dust thou art, and unto dust shalt thou return

Job 1:7 - And the LORD said unto Satan, Whence comest thou?
Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, From going to and fro in the earth,
and from walking up and down in it.

1 Peter 5:8 - Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil,
as a roaring lion, walketh about, seeking whom he may devour:

- Now you know why the devil prowls and why always on man's case
- and why enthusiastically devoted to man

Frosbel would love this

Numbers 23:19 - God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent:
has he said, and shall he not do it? or has he spoken, and shall he not make it good?

- God is not a human being, neither an offspring of a human being
- Note the difference that verse is "son of man" and not "Son of Man"

Also with some twist of ironies

Exodus 3:8 - And I am come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians,
and to bring them up out of that land unto a good land and a large,
unto a land flowing with milk and honey;
unto the place of the Canaanites, and the Hittites,
and the Amorites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites

- Almost every one knows that you risk getting kicked milking cows
and also when extracting honey from beehives risk getting stung by bees

- The Canaanites, the Hittites, the Amorites etc wouldn't give up their lands that easily without a fight or some kicking and stings

kpozite: Your argument is losing it's base, the Bible says that God created man in His image therefore it follows that His skin is pigmented.

And also all pictures of Jesus and satan we have seen you and I know their skin pigmentation.

I wonder what brought about Chelsea, arsenal etc

Your argument is losing it's base, the Bible says that God created man in His image therefore it follows that His skin is pigmented."
Refer to https://www.nairaland.com/1078566/first-question-ask-god-heaven/5#12645695

"And also all pictures of Jesus and satan we have seen you and I know their skin pigmentation" Apart from those pictures what bible verse have you that provides or serves as clear evidence of the colour of Jesus or satan?

"I wonder what brought about Chelsea, arsenal etc" Well, it is one of those after-match-football- interviews with phrases such as it was the team spirit that carried us through to rebound back to win the game.

0773H: Yeah I am still holding you tight so better don't fall my hand.
You know that the man there is actually male and female. Right?
You know that image as well is merely or actually the visual representation of what God was or is trying to express. Right?
It is like images men are trying to project when buying a pe.nis extension, Porsche or a babe magnet wheels, BMW.
Or females wearing bright colored clothes like red etc to portray a fiery, hot or passionate personality.
As I earlier said, it depends on how far out the boat is pushed when talking about God and bodies

ATMC: i doubt we understand each other.

I do understand where you are coming from with "how come he made man in his image if he aint got body?"

When I say I can be as soothing as a cool breeze blowing wind or hyper and OTT like a town-tearing-apart tornado.

They are imagery to import or convey an expression

Image or imagery is a combination of attributes or qualities that is not limited to physical forms.

Even without a body, God has distinctive characters

0773H: God is invisible.
Do you need eyes, touch etc to sense or feel a Nigerian gusto spirit or a goals-behind fighting-back football team's spirit.
Just because God had appeared or appears in bodily form does not mean God has a body.
I am not sure how far out you want to push the boat.
There are earthly bodies for terrestrials such as man and heavenly bodies for celestials such as angels

ATMC: how come he made man in his image if he aint got body?

onatisi: i will only ask one question ,"God which levels you dey now?"

He'll likely reply. I dey Omni-levels

0773H: Yeah, you got that right, there are.
True there are celestial bodies and terrestrial bodies but the glory of the celestial is one and the glory of the terrestrial is another.

ATMC: well i just wanted to remind dt God's got body

*Ileke-IdI:
My friend, STFU.

STFU? Maybe after you. My friend.

ATMC: there are terrestial and celestial body buddy!

Yeah, you got that right, there are.
True there are celestial bodies and terrestrial bodies but the glory of the celestial is one and the glory of the terrestrial is another.

ATMC: god has a body - celestial

"God has a body - celestial?" Celestial as in residence?

*Ileke-IdI:
My question:

Why decieve the world by making them believe that you're a man?

He'll likely reply. Deceive? Man?
Have you not read it written "God is not a man, that he should lie"
or "there is no male and female; for ye are all one in Christ Jesus"

musKeeto: At least, we no dey fight war, blow bomb or collect people money in the name of God..

and more importantly, we no dey carry AIDS..

so tell me, you and mosquito, who beta pass?

It is not like every one dey fight war, blow bomb or collect people money in the name of God..

"we no dey carry AIDS". Wrong. Una do, dey carry AIDS. Fact is una do not ingest enough HIV particles to transmit AIDS.

"you and mosquito, who beta pass?" Each to their purposes. Subjectively, you, beta pass.

musKeeto: Still on Christian God matter...
Why did you show Moses your ar5e?
Are you gay?

musKeeto: Exodus 33
21 And the Lord said, “Here is a place by Me, and you shall stand on the rock. 22 So it shall be, while My glory passes by, that I will put you in the cleft of the rock, and will cover you with My hand while I pass by. 23 Then I will take away My hand, and you shall see My back; shocked but My face shall not be seen.”

I would have called that an unwelcome and dumb ar5e question.

If you need to know. Moses wanted to see God's glory, face - the future. God declined with reasons and instead Moses was shown God's back - the past.

"will cover you with My hand while I pass by" so to block Moses seeing future events like in a movie reel as they rolled by.

musKeeto: This reply is as dumb as the Christian god, maybe even dumber....

Mosquitoes are a family of small, midge-like flies. Although a few species are harmless or even useful to humanity, most are a nuisance

Sun of god: Wey dey pu.ssy at . . . .

He'll likely reply. Pu.ssy? Relegated, along with di.ck.

kpozite: Air is colourless and don't tell me that God too is

Well in a way God is too however was merely countering how you were thinking, like with bundling God up with human attributes such as skin pigmentation or melanin characteristics.

Don't tell you know the colour of the Naija spirit or the Arsenal, Chelsea, MU etc football team spirit?

kpozite: Why is your son a white man and satan a black man? And which one are you white or black?

He'll likely reply. Give me proof, in the bible, where you got the colour idea from.

Which one is the air, white or black?

Torch1: God! If you are the Alpha & Omega then why did you create that forbidden fruit in the garden of Eden knowning fully that Adam & Eve will eat it?

He'll likely reply. It is my prerogative

musKeeto: Still on Christian God matter...

I in turn will laugh at your disaster; I will mock when calamity overtakes you Proverbs 1:26

He that sits in the heavens shall laugh: the Lord shall have them in derision Psalm 2:4

but the Lord laughs at the wicked, for he knows their day is coming Psalm 37:13

But LORD, you laugh at them. You scoff at all the hostile nations. Psalm 59:8

The Samsung BlackJack, or Samsung SGH-i607, is a smartphone available through AT&T in the United States and Telstra in Australia.

Brand controversy

In January 2007 Research In Motion, creators of the BlackBerry handhelds, filed suit in United States federal court claiming the BlackJack trademark was too similar to the BlackBerry mark.They allege Samsung has named their smartphone with a word beginning with "Black" just to mislead the customers that would come to the cellphone stores with the intention to purchase a BlackBerry.

A month later the two parties settled out of court. In January 2008, Rogers Wireless and Fido Solutions released the Blackjack II in Canada under the name Jack.
