Samson too. Even Jet Li upon all him levitation and running untop airborne spear no kill 3000+ people at once even if him no blind. Even Steven Seagal wey dem no dey touch for film no fit kill 300 people with donkey jawbone.

Most importantly, he taught men since 2000 BC that women are the fall of any great man.

Oga Suleiman, why you didn't take a clue na?

Firstly, JESUS CHRIST for his love towards mankind, for dying for us on the cross of Calvary , for his wonderful teachings. Truly words are not enough to thank him.

David, for his humility and accepting correction when he was told that what he did was wrong. No wonder the Bible said he was a man after God's own heart.

babilicious:
King David......The Only person described in The Bible as 'A Man After God's Own Heart'
i''m aspiring by God's Grace to be The woman after God's own heart......Amen
God loved him so much that Our Lord Jesus Christ came from his lineage
Only that statement keeps me moving. "A man after God's heart"

That's why my take is on David.... Anytime Anyway

Steven, he openly spoke of the chronicles of JESUS and His greatness, he went ahead to speak of him seeing the glory of God which got his accusers more angry and they stoned him to death but then, he didn't care about being stoned because he actually saw the glory of God! oh what a great experience I so much desire.

Sorry , i do not argue blindly.
What's the relationship between my comment and you arguing or not arguing blindly? If you really understand what “works of the law" mean, u wouldn't just leave it hanging cos its open to so many interpretations. Quoting the Bible isn't just enough, for as much as the Holy spirit gives knowledge so also does he give understanding. It would be best u clarify what works of the law mean so that those who come across ur comment would be better informed.

Dottore:
Abraham: he had an extraordinary personality. He communicated one on one with God, committed adultery though with the wife's approval yet had his two offsprings blessed immensely.

Joseph: moved from prison to palace thus became a prime minister in a land he was supposed to be a slave.

Odedidom: they sent the ark of covenant to his house because he was wretched. The ark having been bringing misfortune to the entire Israelites in war fronts. It was thought that same would be Obedidom's lot but the reverse was the case. Na so the guy became a wealthy man

Rachab: a prostitute that her kindness to the Jews automatically reset her destiny and she was placed in the matrilineal genealogy of Jesus.

David: committed adultery and engineered the death of his co adulter's husband. Yet had an important place in the heart of God.

Solomon was a chronic womanizer and adulterer yet the blessings of God never eluded him and he never fought any war. His land was at peace and there has not been any King greater than him, before and after.

The Unnamed thief that got himself a first class ticket to heaven just because he opposed the other thief that was mocking Jesus.

Paul was a murderer but encountered divine providence and ended up writing more than half of the new testament thus becoming more popular than other apostles.

Today most preachers and folks in Christiandom make you feel like the devil's friend when they see you with a bottle of beer or worse still a babe.

Moses was unique too. His faith was great. He valued his ppl more than himself. Many times God wanted to punish his ppl, he intervened successfully on their behalf but when God pronounced punishment on him for striking the rock twice, he simply yielded. For that reason, the Angel of God made sure Satan did not take his body. The angel took his body to Heaven according to the Revelations of St. John. I love Moses.

Re: Who Is Your Favorite Biblical Character and why by oruma19: 3:04pm On Mar 19, 2017
I love 2 Bible characters so much it's hard to leave one for the other.
1. Jacob: because he could lie and maneuver his way out of any situation yet God helped him to succeed in all his lying and maneuvering skills. God even said He loved Jacob and hated issau. I like to possess things the way Jacob did.

2. David: he was a bad guy who loved God and killed a lot of Israel's enemies just the way boko Haram think they are killing to get to heaven and be blessed with 7 virgins each. David even killed his loyal servant Uriah just to claim ownership to Uriah's wife. He killed uncountable pple but God called him "a man after HIS own heart" .

These two funny characters were loved by God the most in their generations. Pls can someone explain to me why we think we can be more righteous than these pple... I pray God gives me "a sinner" the kind of love He showed David and Jacob ... grin
