sonmvayina: Christians revere both God and Satan.. It is a dualism.. But the old testament presents God as both responsible for good and evil.. Isaiah 45 :7 , lamentations 3:38... The Satan in Judaism only acts with the expressed permission from God... He must bend to the will of God , never a dual opposite of God or even independent of God... The first time he was introduced in the Bible, he was introduced as "a son of God"... He was always part of God and has no Kingdom or will outside the will of God.. There is no where that relationship changed till you get to the new testament.. Which is just a Roman creation in other to sell Jesus to the gullible masses..
I do agree with you here. Satan can't do anything unless God told him to. He was in cahoots with God in the beginning. Even walking in and out of heaven at ease.
In the new testament, his personality suddenly changes and satan is seen as a seperate independent entity from God.
Satan suddenly become demonized in the New testament.
I'd love to know what the Jews think about satan since they only accept the old testament version of him
sonmvayina: It is Christians who created the fear.. There is none such in the old testament.. God was both responsible for both good and evil.... Singularity of a dual concept, Christianity believes in two different God's, one responsible for good.. The other for evil...
chyckxx: funny enough, someone was complaining about how rude they think i am because i barely relate with them. it’s not pride or arrogance though. i just enjoy this peace that comes with being alone.
chyckxx: being introverted or keeping to oneself isn’t always an attribute of a low self esteem; for me, it’s actually the other way round i often feel like most people aren’t good or intelligent enough for me hence they are likely to misunderstand me and my way of doing things. keeping to oneself will likely be the case if you value your abilities and feel like you’re good enough for the tasks; not everyone believes in teamwork and this method works for me. i don’t feel the need to keep a bunch of friends and it’s not because i don’t feel good enough about myself but rather, my perceived insignificance of having such people around me.
Dcaliphate: be fooling yourself and exposing your ignorance, some of these non-religious countries used to be more religious than Nigeria o, its a process.
Birniwa: I've never seen wicked and bad belle people as Nigerian youth on Nairaland. Someone has put up their efforts and time to research on something informative which will definitely add value to you but you feel like he will go away with your entire family fortune just because you click on a link that redirects back to his blog.
Let's learn to love our own and appreciate their efforts.
Gradieu: Most informal Islamic centres are hell to the children that attend them, can remember one behind my house in Lagos lol, the Alfa's cane can reach a child 20 metres away.. And you hear the children reciting Alif baa caa or something of that nature while crying..
Ok this almajiri thing? For boys only right? And do the kids live there?
Success1020: Stop using Yorubas as example with out of wed pregnancies. Out of wed pregnancy is very common among yorubas, that it's now an acceptable norm among them. How many Igbos do you know with out of wed pregnancy? Very few. Igbo don't roll like that!
Graxie: Too many ignorant folks, someone even claimed HIV patient take 15 drugs daily. Lazy youth. Oga husband, go to good teaching hospital and get counselling. If you want to divorce her please you are free, don't rub it on her to start taking all your excesses because of her condition. Your kids are safe as long as she is taking her medication, her viral load is less than 20,000 and her cd4 count is more than 500. She can still give birth to more healthy children. Many hiv positive mothers are giving birth through vj delivery once those conditions are in place. She deceived you which is very bad and you are free to divorce her because of deceit. Those doctors telling you that you are lucky are not serious truly. You are not positive because she is on drugs and her immune system is high.
ebullient1986: You are big lier my dear HIV takes only 3 tablet in a day
Dcaliphate: What is this one even saying? can you compare yourself to Reno? who knows u? You cant make half as much sense as he does yet you think he's a nut. Don't know why ignorance is usually bold and loud.
2buffagain: Where did this one see me with tattoos? This is how silly girls start gossip just to feel like they are the ones giving "tea".
Better go and turn that urge to serve "gossip tea" into serving "actual tea" this morning by making me breakfast. Also go and make my bed. I have scattered it.
GeoAfrikana: Actually, working with the devil doesn't make anyone better. And it didn't make the west better.
Of what use is money and tech when you can't live a healthy family life with your wife and kids.
One thing about poor people is that they always think that poverty is the only problem in the world, that money is the panacea. They don't believe that rich people could be having problems in their lives. Problems that trouble their lives than hunger is troubling the poor.
Technology doesn't make the world better. Honesty, charity, patience, transparency and other good virtues are what make the world better.
You make no sense. If technology doesn't make the world better, how are people supposed to do all those things like charity you mentioned without getting around quicker? How are different countries meant to trade with each other for income?
