Religious people always defend their religion even wen the evils of their religion stares them on the face.


Ur God thru ur bible also condones, supports and even wrote laws for slavery. Can anyone who believes in such a God be stable?

The Bible, obviously.

Where's yours?


Looooooooooooool.

The bible is nothing but a religious book and not a historical document, how the Romans (The order of the Nicea) wrote the bible and rewrote portions of it several times for several centuries is a well document fact that isnt being argued anywhere.

If u want to prove that Adam existed, then show me any historical document that supports ur claim.

The phrase "Chukwu Okike Abiama" became overly pronounced especially by the IPOB group of recent. Many people including Igbos have no idea of its meaning. I asked my kinsmen but they had no idea too definitely because we aren't from Arochukwu.

Contrary to recent believe, Chukwu Abiama is a pagan God and not what many of us believe it is. Chukwu Abiama was the name given to the central God of the Arochukwu people.

Chukwu Abiama which means the God that reveals truth was very instrumental during slave trade because the shrine which housed the God was more like a supreme court in Arochukwu, anybody whom was found guilty was either dedicated to the gods (Osu) or sold to the whites as a slave.

Igbos that claim to be Jews claimed Chukwu Abiama means God of Abraham, that Abiama is a distorted pronunciation of the word Abraham


It's funny to find many Christians now using the phrase Chukwu Okike Abiama, if only they knew which God they are calling.

The claim that Chukwu Abiama means God of Abraham is just another attempt by some low self-esteem Igbos to rewrite the Igbo history and solidify their irrational claim of Jewish ancestry which I see as an insult to the great Igbo tribe because the Igbo tribe predates Adam.
Bleep off, was Chukwu not also a pagan name. Even so much names in Christianity today were once pagan names.

According to the bible Adam is 7,000 years old. However, archeological evidence proves that people have been living in igbo land for at least 6,000 BC, which is about 10,000–8,000 years ago. Do your own research and do the maths.

My brother, you are very wrong. Go and do ur research very well. Stop coming here to spill what you don't know.
I am an Igbo man and I am very conversant with that name and I was fortunate to be explained to the meaning by a truthful very old man even when I was still a child.

In Igbo land, even before the whitemen invaded us, we, the Igbos recognizes two gods.

1. Chukwu Abiama

2. Chukwu mbibi

Let me explain them to u and all.

CHUKWU ABIAMA: Chukwu means God(god). Abiama is a dialectic pronunciation of the word OBIOMA (Kindhearted or merciful) by some ancient people of Old Bende origin.

Going by the two words, it means that that particular God is a MERCIFUL GOD or a KINDHEARTED GOD. So the name CHUKWU ABIAMA is used to denote the Heavenly God. The creator of the universe and the one most of us recognizes as the ALMIGHTY GOD.

CHUKWU MBIBI: You already know what Chukwu means. MBIBI means destruction or destructive; Combining the two words, you will have DESTRUCTIVE GOD. This name is used to describe any other god dat can cause any harm, destruction or the one u can invoke to kill or cause fear or harm to any person or to a community or a land.

My dear, wherever you get that you version of story, please tell the story teller that he/she is lying.

Thanks

Re: The Meaning Of Chukwu Abiama by Nobody: 8:49am On Jul 08, 2019
Mr poster the full pronounciation is CHUKWU OKIKE IBIAMA

The god that reveals the truth never had OKIKE(creator in its name)

We don't even have such god

CHUKWU means chi ukwu( greatest god)

OKIKE means creation

ABIAMA means come close and know me(ABIA AMARA)


The names are called in different way

EZE CHUKWU OKIKE ABIAMA

EZECHITO OKIKE ABIAMA BY NSUKKA PEOPLE note they are not arochukwu

IGBOS HAVE NEVER ADDED CHUKWU (GREATEST OF ALL GODS) TO ANY OTHER LESSER GOD(CHI)

ABIAMA IS THE NAME THAT HAS DIFFERENT MEANINGS IN IGBO LAND AND NONE OF THESE MEANINGS MEANS (TRUTH)

So get your facts then come back and edit your post

AND AGAIN WHAT MADE YOU SURE THE NAME JESUS IS NOT A WHITE MANS DEIGHTY

Chukwu Abiama....

Just imagine for a second that we blacks came into knowledge first and then went as far as Europe to colonize the whites.

By now them for they worship Chukwu Abiama, Amadioha, Sango etc

And them for dey convinced say na our Gods na the true Gods because na we colonize them..


Lesson:

We are all victims of circumstances. You are a Christian today na because the woke white colonized your sleepy forefathers... You are a Muslim today na because your forefathers weren't strong enough to withstand Islamization.

Religion and language are nothing but tools in the arsenal of cultural identity
That's why we all speak the language of our colonial masters and also worship their gods/God's.

Spread love, not religion
