Janosky: Your Bible skill Sucks. No wonder your Church is a scam and known for false prophecies. At your age you do not know the difference between the sacrificial laws and the ten commandments. An you still do not know the difference between Jewiah festivals and the weekly sabbath insistuted by God before sin came into the World. You are suppose to be a Muslim. Christianity is far from you. 1 Like |

Emusan: Jesus attended a Wedding . Wedding ring is not an issue. Because the concept of wedding itself was ordained by God. . So Lev 18:3 does not apply Show me where Any servant of God did their birthdays ? To remove the credibility Leviticus 18:3 and Egyptian birthdays custom. |

Emusan: A Christian that join Ifa people to celebrate their god , eat and drink even if he is not reciting the slogan is valid?
" When the pharaoh came to the throne he was instantly associated with Horus - the god who had defeated the forces of chaos and restored order " The Origin of birthdays is the celebration of a false god. This is not what Romans 14:5,6 is preaching. Not even Jesus or Paul who wrote the text ever made mention of their birthdays. More proof you are yarning dust |

Emusan: Not hypocrisy but a Fact. Why can't you defend your assumption with a Single reference like I did ? I said Jesus attended a Wedding, wedding ring is not an issue since God backed wedding celebration. provide one person reference for birthday celebration in the Bible by a godly person ? |

Emusan:His day NOT his birthday. His day can mean a time someone chosed. There was a custom in that family that the sons organize a Feast. So each will chose his own day to organize it. That's the reference point of the text. That you said the females are just mere invitees proved beyond doubt , that wasn't a birthday. Don't the females have a date of birth too ? if that place want to sideline females according to your point of view, it won't have made mention of them attending at all . That the females cannot organize that feast is enough prove for a rational person that the Job text wasn't a reference to birthday's |

Barristter07: @color is idolatry... " When the pharaoh came to the throne he was instantly associated with Horus - the god who had defeated the forces of chaos and restored order " Was this about birthday or you just want to be ignorant? No wonder you couldn't back up your claim with a reliable source. The Origin of birthdays is the celebration of a false god. This is not what Romans 14:5,6 is preaching. Not even Jesus or Paul who wrote the text ever made mention of their birthdays. More proof you are yarning dust I can see you can't still provide a reliable source to back it up. Which means you're just following the nonsense thought in your hall. Romans 14:5-6 is about celebrating a day I CHOOSE. 1 Like 1 Share |

Barristter07: @color shows once again, how biased you are. The interpretation of that verse by scholars is birthday but for you to continue in your delusions, you said "CAN MEAN" That you said the females are just mere invitees proved beyond doubt , that wasn't a birthday. Don't the females have a date of birth too ? if that place want to sideline females according to your point of view, it won't have made mention of them attending at all That was the reason I asked whether you go to school at all or just decided to be ignorant. Was scripture usually silent on female issues like men? That the females cannot organize that feast is enough prove for a rational person that the Job text wasn't a reference to birthday's Where from the scripture you read that female can't organized that feast? 2 Likes 1 Share |

Emusan: Who are those dumb scholars ? Show me one reference of that Hebrew word that refer to birthday .
By silent you mean they did but it wasn't recorded. No, you are wrong. The text made it clear that only Job Sons organize that family feast , and when it goes round their Father will purify them. If the reference was to a Birthday , Females will as well. Don't they have a date of birth ? 1 Like |

Emusan: " In particular, during the first two centuries of Christianity there was strong opposition to recognizing birthdays of martyrs or, for that matter, of Jesus. Numerous Church Fathers offered sarcastic comments about the pagan custom of celebrating birthdays " Encyclopedia Brittanica. Would this comment be valid if it's not truly Established that Egyptians Celebrate birthdays of pharaohs for his birth as a god? In fact In the early beginning of birthdays, it was for Pharaohs. Part of their Customs which the Isrealites saw before leaving Egypt. 2 Likes |

Barristter07: Keep jumping up and down... This is the statement I asked you to provide a reliable source for, till now, you haven't be able, "so they were basically celebrating the Pharaoh’s “birth” as a god." The same Christians of first-two centuries you didn't subscribe to their teachings are the ones you're rally around. Would this comment be valid if it's not truly Established that Egyptians Celebrate birthdays of pharaohs for his birth as a god? We need your source not just speculation. In fact In the early beginning of birthdays, it was for Pharaohs. Part of their Customs which the Isrealites saw before leaving Egypt. But they saw WEDDING RING and God warned them to do away with them. |

Emusan: That's the reason why they have been asked repeatedly, where in the scripture is celebrating birthday a sin? Where in the scripture did it warrant such a kind of questions from their videos what if Jehovah does not want to be my friend anymore for cerebrating birthdays.

blueAgent: Exactly what all the contemporary religionsts of Jesus' day said about him {John 10:20} so you're confirming what he foretold that you and your people (who can't agree on the same line of thought) will say about his true followers! John 15:20 What is Sin? If you've concluded that my church is scam then is there any reason whatsoever to start asking me questions when you're damn sure that i don't have the answer? |
