truthislight: Thanks a lot. Not even when the said God stopped the man from killing the said child. Indeed this short story could in other words be described as a short display of madness by the poster. He needs healing. 2 Likes |

truthislight:Oga truthisdarknes, abeg shine torch for us.. make man see wetin man no fit see.. the goodness in this story.. truthislight:Interesting. So God's like 'I did a favor for you therefore you owe me everything'... I see.. Didn't the child Isaac have any 'rights' as a being? Reminds me of the 'Osus' in Igbo kingdom... truthislight:Lol.. so Isaac was a legible sacrifice? Cool story.. truthislight:No one needs to paint the story black. It's in the Bible in black and white, do well to read it again.. Just this time, put yourself in Isaac's shoes... truthislight:Thanks for the advice. You sound hurt though, maybe cos I struck at an idea of God that exists in your head.. Issorai.. |
Re: A Short Story by Nobody: 7:40pm On Apr 21, 2013 |
shdemidemi: Abraham "offered" Isaac to the mighty one (elohim) because he was still acting under a basic ancient pagan or heathen culture. This was a culture that believed that a great gift, such as one's only child late in life, or any great blessing deserved thanks to one's mighty one (elohim). The pagans thought that even greater blessings would result. This as we know is a completely false concept. Christians and spinning the Bible to make it look the way they want it to be... smh... Genesis 22: |

Logicboy03: But you would agree to allow ur son practice homosexuality ..right?....... The truth is God could ressurect isaac a million times.....so what is the case here?...is there any case??.... Its like hesitating to do away with your Ford vehicle when told to do exactly so by the GM CEO....... He can give you thousands more......... Besides as we know Yahweh was not going to let Abraham sacrifice his son............. AbrahÀm was ready to do as he was commanded because he knew Yahweh knew it all............ When dealing with the creator of the whole universe you put your implicit trust in him...... 1 Like |

Re: A Short Story by ijawkid(m): 11:46pm On Apr 21, 2013 |
Logicboy03: I'm only telling you that someone like you who would readily accept and groom a child to practice homosexuality is so much worse than abraham who was ready to sacrifice his son to the God who gave him that same son............ Abrahams willingness teaches Faith....something you detest.......... keep enjoying your life that has no meaning or if you would make a U-turn imitate abraham....... Choose......... |
Re: A Short Story by Nobody: 11:51pm On Apr 21, 2013 |
ijawkid: 1) Thanks for the nonsense accussation....grooming a child for homosexuality? See what christianity does to ones brain? What do I have to do with all these nonsense? 2) How did you look at my post or this thread and bring up homosexuality? If you have a problem please go and solve it. You are one to talk about another person's life. F4cking swamp creature |
Re: A Short Story by ijawkid(m): 11:58pm On Apr 21, 2013 |
Logicboy03: Lol..... If I ask you question you go danze azonto before yoÙ answer.......if my accusations are wrong can you kindly debunk them...... Well let's just leave this issue..... If you can't see the lesson behind abrahams action and Gods request then just face front........ |

Re: A Short Story by ijawkid(m): 6:46am On Apr 22, 2013 |
musKeeto: Lol...... I'm only saying for atheists who care about nothing,and who would see nothing wrong in letting there kids becoming gays(since atheists have no choice but to suPport homosexuality and nothing is immoral) are worse of than a man who was ready to sacrifice his only son to the almighty God...because to me kids who have atheists as there parents are as good as dead.......what would they learn?.....what advice would a person like LB and the rest of y'all atheists give to your children as regards living morally in this dying world?............ That's my point bro....... The bolded explains my point........ To abraham his son would be as good as alive even if he sacrificed him in obedience to his God.............can atheist parents after teaching there kids that man has no purpose and that life is meaningless and that there is no GOD have the same prospects with abraham?.......... NOOOOOO......... So make all of ona go hide ona face........... 2 Likes |

Re: A Short Story by truthislight: 7:51am On Apr 22, 2013 |
musKeeto: Rebels! Did it occur to you that a son can Obey his farther and love Yahweh as far as death just as Jesus did? |
Re: A Short Story by truthislight: 7:58am On Apr 22, 2013 |
musKeeto: But the same set of people criticising Yahweh here are the same set of people that accept that sex between man and man, woman and woman, man and animal and that all kinds of immoral sex is good. Yahweh said he will destroy such set of people, why will such set of people ever love Yahweh? We know better what is paining you. |

truthislight: 1) hypocrisy- every single year, a pastor or priest is exposed as a homosexual. There are gay bishops. Gay christians. Infact, the catholic church has a higher rate of pedophilia recorded than mwny societies. Even protestants suffer from the man boy perversion 2) i dont know of any atheist here that supports bestiality. Keep lying and bashing atheists out of frustration 3) abraham was a psycopath. Any real father would have said that nothing would makevhim sacrifice his son. I remember my uncle saying that when he was being roobed he told the robbers to point the gun at him not his son. That is a loving father. He would die for his son. Abraham should have begged god to replace his son with him....... |
Re: A Short Story by Nobody: 8:59am On Apr 22, 2013 |
@Yahweh Fans: May you hear a voice in your head one day, asking you to sacrifice your pikin. And if your pikin decides not to go along with you, may Yahweh strike him dead for lack of faith As for those who can't differentiate homosexuality from atheism, please do yourself a favor. Probably go back to school. You missed a few lessons there. Btw, you can keep tagging everything evil a product of atheism.. we all know Satan himself isn't an atheist. Yahweh is the real devil. Satan never asks anyone to kill anyone on his behalf as test of faith. Yahweh does. Yahweh's evil.. The Bible makes that clear enough. Genesis 22: 12 “Do not lay a hand on the boy,” he said. “Do not do anything to him. Now I know that you fear God, because you have not withheld from me your son, your only son.” The whole aim of this 'test' by an all-knowing God was so that Abraham would fear him. Little wonder, the Christians here are squeaking and snarling like demented demons... Their 'MASTER' is under attack... kneel, slaves, kneel.. dump all reasoning and all your being at the altar of your great Jewish slave.. 2 Likes |

Logicboy03: And is Yahweh the same as the armed robber in the example you gave??.......did the armed robber provide that son for your uncle?......... Abraham was dealing with the person who created the universe and who also gave him a son............. Abraham knew that God would ressurect isaac and could also give him a million sons even if he sacrificed isaac...abraham knew what he was doing........ If abraham was your uncle he would do the same by letting the armed robbers point the gun at him instead of his son.........but sorry my bro...abraham was dealing with the almighty and not some filthy armed robber......... |

ijawkid:Good. So there's nothing wrong with human sacrifice at all, be it even the ones done by Africans.. because they were sacrificing to one who they believed had created the universe and could also bless them in return. In essence, religious sacrifices are not immoral. God gave, and he taketh away. Case closed. Congrats, you win. 3 Likes |

musKeeto: @Yahweh Fans: May you hear a voice in your head one day, asking you to sacrifice your pikin. And what do you understand by FEAR?.......... You think say abraham been dey fear Yahweh the way you dey take fear bokoharam?......... What do you understand by Fear?........ The aim of that test goes way beyond just testing the faith of abraham and his willingness to obey all of Yahwehs commands........... But you guys won't see it....when y'all are with your"" NO GOD"" caps, nothing is right from the scriptures..... |
