Try and use your head,

Alittle.

Read what you posted.
Term was coined in 1820 and yet you refer to Moses marriage about 3000 years earlier. You need to realize that the bible you read is a translation .It was not written in English so you need to know what was used in the Hebrew version from which the Bible is translatd.Secondly stop posting those pictures they are meaningly and do not butress your argument about Moses marrying a "CUSHITE" .THe reality is there is little evidence to substantiate that there ever was any group of people called Cushite .

I knew you would say that.

The word Cushite was not even the original Hebrew.

Kushi: descendant of Cush
Original Word: כּוּשִׁי
Part of Speech: Adjective
Transliteration: Kushi
Phonetic Spelling: (koo-shee')
Short Definition: Cushite

Cushite is the English transliteration of the word used.

So can you prove to us Cushites were white people? smiley

We are waiting o.

I do not know that there ever was any people like Cushites. If there was I have no idea whether they were white black or Chinese.
I have not said so that is YOUR CLAIM(They were black) the burden is on you

You claimed they were black so how can you ask me to prove they were white.Stop being ridiculous

You said they were black have you got evidence ? Or that they ever existed even?

Good thing to see you have lost your argument.

I would have still mentioned a lot more black people like Zipporah, Nimrod, e.t.c.

At least by now you should know that Nimrod existed.

Okay, so enlighten us, how did men come about?

And I told you I know how man came about?

Keep jumping from piller to post. Does rhoa change the fact that your people are making up things for a God they so believe in. This thread is a pure prove that no God answers any prayer because the op is trying to defend his ideology because of it has failed many. To talking about creation because no one has the answer to that. Stick to the topic

BTW, So you don't know how you came but yet you attack creationist. And you call them deluded.

Firstly I do not accept that any of the stories in your bible are proven.I have only indulged you on the basis of benefit of doubt.
I.e "Let us accept they are true" Basis. Even then the bible does not say Cushites are Black so your argument that Moses was reproved for marrying a black woman is unproven and rubbish quite frankly

There is NO MENTION of BLACK PERSONS in the Bible so all that rubbish about Nimrod and Zipporah is balderdash. You are empty and raucous with nothing of substance but wind and fury

Dude, why your hatred for the bible na?

There are still more names for me to give you o if you want.

I don't know when Ethiopians where ever whites.

You've lost your argument ever since. And also your last sentence is a very good description of yourself.

Maybe you thought you were talking to a novice. You can ask Ifeness for testimonies. cool

Some are lost and seek no repentance,
While some are also lost but are unbalanced in changing their stance.

May God's grace and mercy accept us all.

I was tired of you yesterday. Rather than address the issues you dance round in circles.You say Moses married a "BLACK" woman but provide no evidence
You claim Cushites were black again NO EVIDENCE.
When asked for proof you say prove it is not so and then try and widen the matter to irrelevancies.


For evidence you provide a link showing ETYMOLOGY dating 1820 for an event that supposedly happened thousands of years earlier.

For your information the Bible talks of EGYPTIANS are we to assume that those are the same as the ARABS who we know as Egyptians today?
How the can you presume to tell us who was Black or Not Black 3000 years ago without evidence?

God said of Himself, "I am the Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and Ending".

Nobody created God. He is self existing. Your brain has not even understood the milky way Galaxy, It's God whom scripture says can span the heavens with his hands you want to understand?

Is 40:12 "Who has measured the waters in the hollow of his hand, or with the breadth of his hand marked off the heavens? Who has held the dust of the earth in a basket, or weighed the mountains on the scales and the hills in a balance?"

Job 11:7 “Can you find out the deep things of God? Can you find out the limit of the Almighty?"

Col 1:16 "He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together.…"

Funny how you keep quoting the bible. You cannot use the bible to prove the existence of god anymore than you can use a comic to prove the existence of spiderman. And oh by the way,i noticed how you disingenuously dodged my question on the difference between my analogy of the master/servant relationship and the illusion of freewill.

Re: 5 Reasons God Doesn’t Answer Your Prayers by God2man(m): 4:05pm On Oct 18, 2015
I can't believe that people still argue about the existence of God.

I can't believe it.

It is an argument standing on two legs.

1. Money

2. Deception.


My God will continue to exist. Whether you argue or not.

I don't need to use the ible to prove the existence of God. I will rather use nature.

Typical evasive tactic. I know the drill. You cannot ask the accused to prove he did not steal from you. The onus is on you to prove beyond reasonable doubt that something was stolen from you. If you brought this kind of argument to court,the judge would jettison your case in the blink of an eye.

I understand Him well in regards to prayer broda.

God gave this earth over to man. And as a result cannot intrude unless there is a man to pray or prophesy His power to be allowed in the earth.

The world is fallen and as a result a lot of mistakes have been permitted in the earth. E.g wrong child birth.

The only way out of all this mess is faith and prayer to bring God on the scene. While some children die others are saved. Why is this? Google Cokeville miracle.

Also as for sinners doing well it has been spoken about in scriptures. The devil only focuses his attacks on those that are walking in the true way. He does that to frustrate the person and bring the person back into his kingdom. The devil doesn't bother with those in his kingdom, he deceives them with peace so as to blind them from the need of God.
