Hmmm but why would aperfect being be jealous!!? jealousu stems from insecurity. Too bad that a perfect almighty being would be jealous for humans attention. [/i]

Evolution did read the write up. COPY and paste?? Nigga I took it from my thread
https://www.nairaland.com/3290033/being-good-without-god

Educate urself if U want to

naijadeyhia:


Go through the meaning again. Jealous as applied to God means to be protective, defensive, vigilant, watchful, heedful, mindful, careful, solicitous, attentive. Only a powerful being can do these things and it has nothing to do with insecurity! The insecure ones are the creature and not their creator. Only the maker can offer adequate protection, defense, vigilance, watchfulness, take heed, be mindful, careful, attentive to His Creation.

His Jealousy is not the kind that you ladies have for one another. That aspect is not in Gods makeup same way God cannot lie.

naijadeyhia:


I am already educated thank you very much. You on the other hand are not thinking deep enough. I asked you a simple question; How do you know what is good from what is not especially if we could easily say good is bad while bad is good and you are getting worked up.

Follow my thought train and answer the question.

Playing with words doesn't change anything, I don't see any practical point in trying to differentiate between
tribalism and tribal discrimination when it is clear to all that the discrimination itself stems from tribalism.

If I do not focus on what makes me different from you, why will I hate you ?

AmenRa1:

Lets go through the stuff without cherry picking !
Exo 20:2 I [am] the LORD thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
Exo 20:3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
Exo 20:4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness [of any thing] that [is] in heaven above, or that [is] in the earth beneath, or that [is] in the water under the earth:
Exo 20:5 Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor them: for I the LORD thy God [am] a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth [generation] of them that hate me;

Now repeat that stupid statement u told Valentinmarry

AmenRa1:

How could Animals Like Dog & Cat Or Even Monkeys Show Emotions For Each Other If They Don't Know Right from wrong?? Why does the mother baboon cry when her baby dies??

naijadeyhia:


Your venom is very understandable for an atheist which is why morality is far from you but let me help your ignorance using the very same Scripture you quoted

Exo 20:2 I [am] the LORD thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage. ......................WHO WAS GOD REFERRING TO? HIS PEOPLE OR STRANGERS?
Exo 20:3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me.
Exo 20:4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness [of any thing] that [is] in heaven above, or that [is] in the earth beneath, or that [is] in the water under the earth:
Exo 20:5 Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor them: for I the LORD thy God [am] a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth [generation] of them that hate me;

FOR I THE LORD THY GOD AM A JEALOUS (PROTECTIVE, MINDFUL, CAREFUL, DEFENSIVE ) GOD.

Let me explain this to you in simple English.

People of old worshipped gods based on any of the following reasons

Protection, defense, sustenance and so on and God said i am all that to you and more so you need not seek these things elsewhere. Thats what God meant by being Jealous.

You cannot describe the interior furnishings of a house from the outside. Likewise you cannot grasp an understanding of scripture without the Holy spirit.

I hope you have been enlightened.

[b]Exo 20:2 I [am] the LORD thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.

Exo 20:3 Thou shalt have no other gods before me.

Exo 20:4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness [of any thing] that [is] in heaven above, or that [is] in the earth beneath, or that [is] in the water under the earth:

Exo 20:5 Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor them: for I the LORD thy God [am] a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth [generation] of them that hate me;[/b]
Now repeat that stupid statement u told Valentinmary

naijadeyhia:


Are you a baboon or a dog or a cat or a monkey? Speak for yourself!

AmenRa1:

This Is pure Rubbish Execpt maybe U don't understand English which I would correct you now!

What Does thee represent? It represent the people of Israelite Brought Out From Egypt! God here is talking to them! Telling them that he brought them out from bondage

God is telling them not to worship another God Apart From Him! Meaning They Were Other Gods Eg Baal!! Now If I Tell My Friend Do Not Worship Any Other Person Apart From Me What Does That Signify??

God Here Is Still Telling Them Not To Mk Any Image Or Craft Anything To Worship!!

HEAR God Sum Up Everything By Saying Thou Shall Not Bow thyself To Them Who Is Them?? For I the lord am a jealous God!! If U Boy To Them I'll Be Jealous!! It's as simple as that except U don't understand English even a kid understand that simple statement

AmenRa1:

U are loosing the argument!! If U can't Grab the point there Are we not all Animals? The same Oxytocin that Mk those animal know Right from wrong sad from happy Is the same working on me to!!

naijadeyhia:



[b]Your post above is exactly why i say you know nothing about Scripture.

There were gods in Egypt which the Israelite had been exposed to so they had to warned against them after God brought them out....Note that their liberation from Egypt had already been foretold before they even went into Captivity so as far as God was concerned Ignorance was not an excuse for them.

However those gods were not Gods problem... the people were so He had to reassure them that He would be there for them which is where the word JEALOUS came in. You must also note that even when they were being brought out of Egypt when they encountered hunger an thirst in the desert many of them wanted to go back to egypt simply because of food and drink so the urge was already in them.

You really need to stop being hasty. You being an Atheist cannot teach me a Believer what you think you know about the Word of God because you know absolutely NOTHING! [/b]

AmenRa1:

And U are the one that have understandings of it??

U are not making any sense!! I can't Teach U English Again pls it's frustrating

And U that can't interprete simple English is the one that can teach me??

naijadeyhia:


smh...i wonder why intelligence is a struggle with you. My talk is with you a human and instead of focusing on that you switch to animals but you never explained how oxytocin taught itself right or wrong or why right is right and wrong is wrong an how we tell the difference if we could easily switch them around.

You really need to apply your intelligence because you are not doing so as yet...instead you are beginning to lose your temper which is a classic case of an attempt to derail.

AmenRa1:

You are not going anywhere here O if U like insulte me up and down the point is that U can't win this argument!!

If U had read the write up from being to end you'll understand how the hormones work together with the brain and store info in the DNA Thats Is later passed down generations fears anger love compassion all this are passed down due to experience!!

naijadeyhia:


Scripture is not a novel. It is spiritually discerned so i understand your frustration. Anything else?

naijadeyhia:



If your aim is to win an argument then sorry because that is not my aim. You want an award or a medal? Go get it!

If you cannot answer a simple question i asked and you want to take me to someone elses article which you copied then we cannot communicate.

ValentineMary:

It is good now that u are spotting the condradictions urself. After God said he is the only one, he later said he is jealous. How can he be jealous if he is the only one

And for the original hebrew Torah, it shows pious fraud in christianity. The ancient hebrew were polytheist that's why they said Elohim meaning Gods but christianity which is a monotheist religion adopted this text for a single God Yahweh. So the foundation is even false. Hmmm

AmenRa1:

It this the best U could come up with when U lost ayaaaa sorry

AmenRa1:

Lol it's my article and not someone else! And I have already answered Ur question.....winning argument? No m Educating U!!

naijadeyhia:


I lost? Really? I never knew you craved victory so bad you had to be a judge and a jury. Shows your desperation.

naijadeyhia:


More like educating yourself.

AmenRa1:

How does it feel to be Educated??
