Shut the Bleep up and direct that your question about honor to the person I quoted. It seems u guys leave the point of argument and concentrate on throwing out words for the sake of it.

Also direct that senseless question I highlighted to the guys on this thread who were joyous about a prayer closet standing while devastation exists all around. People were injured and properties were lost. Some people probably died. But praise Jesus the prayer closet of our grandma stands sure. Or u want to claim u didn't see them rejoicing?

Birds of a feather of senselessness flocked together. Lol.

Okkk... should they rather mourn with the living and rejoice with the dead or otherwise..... in as much as you cannot control life, You can affect it..


and you can go mourn those that survived and rejoice about those that died since you'r operating under a special logical sphere

LordReed:


There are no principles the bible teaches that you can't get from else where and there are those that teach these principles to great effect without the need to believe in a god.

I too have analysed everything from the scratch and it is my conclusion that there is no sufficient reason to believe a god exists neither is there evidence that the book called the bible is a result of some kind of divine inspiration.

And where did the elsewhere get their teaching from? The moon?

Smtn must inspire smtn.

Sm people think the Bible is against logic Bt it supports logic quite well. It has physical/scientific logic, then spiritual logic and lastly where it defies logic all together.

The tornado destroyed the building and the prayer closet is left behind and you guys are praising God where will the family live now. in the prayer closet right?

Bilsz:


If only you knew the worth of the bible... besides, you can buy as many bible as you want, If you don't know its worth, then you can never grow...

the bible is a sign of hope, yes the shop was destroyed, but the bible there depicted hope. The Bible there signified that, despite she was hit by a disaster, there is still hope for greater achievement, and that is never her end. Now I don't expect you to agree, but thats what keeps most people going in the era of challenges . It discipline them mentally, psychologically, and physically, it changes the way they react to life challenges . One way or the other, the world is filled with challenges, it takes hope and grace to keep us going.

Your question should have been 'why should there be disasters and challenges in the first place'

So assuming Boko Haram terrorists hold a young girl of 5 captive and give you an option, burn the bible in publicand the girl will live and be released or refuse and she'd be beheaded. What would you do?

Another atheist letting emotions becloud his sense of reasoning.

Can you post a verse to that effect?

Was Jesus selective when he died for everyone including atheists, white, black,
Asian etc?

ABSTRUSE:


Your god is selective: he chooses the ones he likes and tells the rest to Bleep off. A father that cannot love all his children equally, is dat one in any way different from humans?

Did I tell you I don't want my dad to go to heaven?

steve13:

Ask your self , if heaven is truly laden with gold and diamond, no suffer and pain whatsoever why don't you want your father to go there?
He isn't done here ? What exactly is he doing

No be small heathen o

AngelicBeing:
Gbam, ignore that heathen

Omudia11:
Yes we will praise our God in every situation. If you don't like it, jump into the nearest ocean.

Who told you God saved only one family? Are your family members not alive? Are there not seven billion people who are alive in the world right now? Who do you think saves all of them? Even you with your loud mouth, do you know how God saves you everyday in ways you don't know? Do you know how many car accidents and plane crashes God averts everyday?

Four Thursdays ago, I nearly lost my dad in my arms. Yes, and even two doctors told us that it was a miracle for him to have survived. Two doctors. My dad gained consiousness at the hospital at 3am wondering how he got there. It's the same God that saved my Dad from the kidnappers den in 2013. I don't even want to go too far.

Do you know what will become of all of us if God were to take away his grace from this world? If you know what God does for us on a daily basis despite our shortcomings you will shut up and be humble.

God bless you brother. May God be praised!!!

Now this is you creating a scenario to paint a picture..

okk, In my human form, I wouldn't wanna see a girl die.. because deep down, I've not built ma faith to the point I can bank on it in regards to extreme challenges like the one you painted... now this.. its all about faith and how connected you are.

now since Yoh trying to capitalize on the Bible's worth ... Yes! Not destroying the Bible is capable of subjecting forces (because it is God's word) to alter the purpose tragedy. Thats how worthily it is , yet knowing just the worth isn't enough in scenarios like this but by the level of faith you have achieved to unleash the power therein... but again, how would you grow your faith to that level if you aint know its worth in the first place....

And I get U, You just wanna see me contradict myself.. try and get the twist first

Since you've danced around the question and avoided answering it, I'll give you my own answer.

If I was presented with the same scenario, I'd burn the Bible to ashes to save the girl.

In fact, I will burn one bible for each of the over 200 girls in Boko Haram's captivity if it would secure their release.

The bible you carry around in your hands is just paper and ink.

God's law is written in the hearts of men.

Do you know why you couldn't give me a clear answer?

Because, unknowingly, most "Christians" are guilty of bible idolatry or bible worship.

Ok.. bro... now this is you turning the table.. so what is written in the bible?.. well if you couldn't see past the paper and ink analogy u used in referencing the bible, thats your own ish... if You can't cherish what you see, how would you cherish that which you can't see

Apparently, you are one of those who follow blindly. You are told sth and you swallow everything hook, line and sinker. Which Jesus died for everyone? Why was it even imperative for him to come to the world and die for you? He died for you not for me.

A father that has the power to save his children but would rather sit and watch them die. What kind of father iz dat? Biko rie nsi!

So the only thing that brings inspiration is your god or bible? Please, people get inspired without any of those things.

The bible supports anything you want it to support, even if it is foolishness.

What a mighty and wonderful God.
He creates good and evil.
He createdthe Earth and the heavens and all the waters underneath it.
He creates the tornado.
He creates man.
So if God decides to use the tornado to destroy every man,woman,child and house in the city and leave only a family sheltering in a prayer closet alive,who can question this God?
God gives and takes. His ways are not our ways. A billion years is like a second in his eyes. God works in mysterious ways.
Oh! What a mighty God.......

A typical sheep calling others names.

@ bolded. A carnal mind cannot understand the things of the spirit so any explanations to you will be an exercise in futility.

My dear it is you who follow blindly. God has revealed himself to me in many ways and there is more proof of his existence than the lack of it. Keep following Stephen Hawking, Richard Dawkin, Sam Harris etc forgetting that these people are running their personal race and can repent on their death beds and make heaven without your notice.

Per your last paragraph. God does not force people to do anything. It is even likened unto a rebellious child who purposely doesn't want to do right despite all efforts and pleas of his parents.

He doesn't force people to do anything. Did he ask or seek for my opinion before sending me into the world? By your answer, are you saying only the unrighteous die?

Argh! Your brain must be 'paining' you.

TechCapon:
Oga hahn will not like this one

What is there to like? The fact that the building was destroyed?

but prayer closet is still standing

Uyi168:
Yet, he can not protect children from being raped..

that is because they didn't make themselves prayer vessels in the first place

You sound like a person who will dare God by committing this devious crime.

So all those priests and pastors did not tempt god enough?

freethinker01:
I wonder what kind of god this is that places more value on objects rather than the living. The one that claims responsibility for the good things and every bad thing that happens is as a result of human error or should we call it sin?
This god can go fvck himself/herself/itself or whatever it goes by for all I care.

that same God who loves his children so well that he gave them an enemy(devil) who used to be his own favourite angel I don't know how foolish a god can be lol

wow

tck2000:


wow

Glory be to God!
