jamesid29:I am sorry if this seemed like a disagreement. It was actually a response to the Lordreed. I’m sorry. |
LordReed:So, you didn’t say you would remove all the power to choose? Uhm! I hope you play video games; when you have finished an adventure game that gave you so much pleasure, did you throw it away, sell it or burn it? Why? Because it had outlived its usefulness; it became predictable; you could tell each nook and cranny of the plots and could play with your eyes closed.This means you would kill billions of predictable (robotic) humans if you were made a god. You would be guilty of the same wickedness you attribute to God. On the other hand, you said you would partially remove the power and desire to hurt; could you let me know how you would do that? Have you not read that “he that sins against one law, sins against all”. You are proposing that you would create a partially corrupt nature. A little lawlessness, would be good enough for you; a creator that does such a thing is vile. Such a thought is an abomination. |
LordReed:Your highness. The scriptures says all children are God’s children; so is His ownership of those who are in Christ. Have you not read Jesus saying: “I tell you the truth, unless you turn from your sins and become like little children, you will never get into the Kingdom of Heaven.“? Please fall in love with reading the Bible, Your highness. |
LordReed:On earth, a priori, man had free will; God made him so. If God had made robots programmed not to have free will; the three laws in full consummation will cause man without free will to have free will. If God knows the end from the beginning, He knew it’s a futile venture to make man free will castrated. Yet, man has lost his free will because, ‘For the good that I want, I do not do, but I practice the very evil that I do not want. But if I am doing the very thing I do not want, I am no longer the one doing it, but sin which dwells in me.‘ So Christ comes to restore free will in man. Free will says: ‘if I want to do good, I do it; if I want to do evil, I will.’ So, in the Heaven of God, everything grandeur about God alone exists, and these things causes the man who finds himself there to desire to do good and will it. God doesn’t change; if He made man choose between good and evil, and let His goodness persuade man to choose good, He still will cause His goodness persuade those who are Heaven-bound to choose goodness rather than evil. |
LordReed:It is written in Ezekiel 33: “the Sovereign LORD, am the living God, I do not enjoy seeing sinners die”. In the scriptures, the term “sinner” or “wicked” is used to describe a hardened offender, a habitual criminal, a regular felon, those whose actions or inactions resist the course of nature etc. No child falls into these descriptions because their innocence restrains them. Then if God does not enjoy seeing sinners condemned, how much more would He not enjoy the condemnation of the innocent? I hear Abraham say to God: “ You could not possibly do such a thing: to kill the righteous with the wicked, treating the righteous and the wicked alike. You could not possibly do that! Won't the Judge of the whole earth do what is just?"” All dead babies and children will go to Heaven instantly when they die. |
LordReed:Have you watched iRobot? Do you know what the three laws states? If you have watched it, you will know the final course of the three laws. When you remove from people that power, you have created robots; yet, the laws will be in conflict and robots will eventually become people (humans) - they will have the power and desire to hurt themselves. |
LordReed:I gave you an answer. Are you the 8 years old child? |
LordReed:What a funny question! jamesid29:It is written in Ezekiel 33: “the Sovereign LORD, am the living God, I do not enjoy seeing sinners die”.

hoopernikao:I have washed my hands off you. Even if you are shown your eyes, you wouldn’t see it. I’ll leave you with a parting gift: who was the man Paul was referring to in 2 Corinthians 12:2? Who was the angel of the Lord in Zechariah 3:1-7 and how is it He has power to take away a man’s iniquity and clothe one in a new garment? When you feel like responding, please don’t quote me, I use God beg you. |
dannyyol2018:You may be referring to the wrong person. In my brief exposition on Isaiah 28:11, I tried to highlight the intention of Paul when he made reference to the verse in 1 Corinthians 14. The person you may be referring to (not MuttleyLaff) wanted us to translate it literally - this led to a lot of bickering regarding the use of the word “stammering” by the aggrieved one. He clearly showed us that the word meant “mockery” or “derogatory language”; but in a clandestine manner, he translated it to the word “gibberish” so that it can fit into his narrative. Then the next bickering concerned the meaning of the expression: “new tongues”; he insisted that “new” meant “newly created” as against the biblical meaning - novel; Muttleylaff and I tried to express this; but I guess you think he was emotional - this isn’t the case. Let’s know your thoughts regarding the OP. |
MuttleyLaff:I have been wondering too. |
Earlier in the week, a Nigerian Magistrate decided to disqualify charges against a 15-year-old girl detained for killing a man who had attempted to rape her. A just judge attends to every case according to its individual merits. If God is a just judge, He must deal with each person according to their individual merits. When an infant dies, the destination of that infant is Heaven, instantly. Sin, age of accountability and predestination are usually the parameters many of us stumble when we try to provide an answer for this very important question. It is only the scriptures that can provide a comforting answer to the anguish many have felt concerning the final destiny of their dead babies. Let us see the nature of the Judge: 1. God’s thoughts are precious (Psalm 139) 2. God knows everything about us in details before our conception (Psalm 139, Jer. 1). 3. God is a personal creator, He made each baby (Isaiah 46). 4 God regards children; in Ezekiel 16, the Lord describes how he picked up the Israelites as if they were an infant abandoned in the field; He uses Israel to show us that all infants are His children (Ezekiel 16:20) - He loves all of them (Luke 18:16). He rebuked Jonah for praying for the damnation of those could not discern their left hand from the right- little children and those mentally incapable of making right judgements. You may ask when does a child stop being a child, and become accountable? When you consider the nature of everyone, the question should not be about “age of accountability” but the “condition of the individual”; a 30 years old person with down syndrome is “mentally a child”. All children are unique in their development and exposure to the truth; so, a righteous judge has to consider these conditions. There is nowhere in the Bible where there is a stipulated “age of accountability”; so you have to take your eyes off the calendar. Only God knows the age of accountability. Any child who hasn’t reached the point of moral culpability, to convincingly understand the difference between sin and salvation, will proceed to Heaven when such a child passes away. |
Finallydead:All things work together for good to them that love God. It was derailed - very true; but my invitation to the cultist was more like the invitation of Satan to heaven’s conference with regards to Job’s life - I wanted the topic to be driven for weeks so that many can see their error through proper biblical exposition - it achieved its aim. But I have this mentality that when one wants to hide the truth, he shrouds it around multitude of words; so I restrained myself as it would have been reprehensible if I attacked those guilty of shrouding a preconceived idea regarding tongues in many words; I learned to also respect your views as well as theirs, thank you. I would like to know what view prevails with you presently. |
Omuneizzy6:Please go through the bolden texts. It would give you the meaning of your dream. If you are in Christ, you should have an idea of what the dream means by now. You have no need to ask anyone because there is one who reveals the meaning of dreams and He is not a man; therefore, ask Him. |
Eulalia: |
MuttleyLaff:Ooh la la! I did enter it in the wrong window. People here in NL can be touchy; saying such a thing on his thread will turn out bloody; I didn’t want to spend Saturday on my phone I hope you understand. We all called Sylvester Stallone by his nom de guerre, Rambo, when we were children until we knew later on that that wasn’t his name. Well, Acehart (from the private eye canine in the cartoon, dog city) is made up from letters in my real name; I’d say it doesn’t sound cool for a nom de guerre, but a few people know its me. If I were to have a nom de guerre, I guess I’d have to search for one. I hated Wacky Races; why did you name your moniker after that crazy dog, Muttley? |
MuttleyLaff:Meaning? |
MuttleyLaff:My idea of church is your idea of church; When you see that I ask people what church they attend, it’s because I am asking myself questions about where they get their ideas from - is it an inspiration from someone they are listening to or something along those lines? He says he leads people into the prophetic; and he screenshots one of his followers saying that after a few seconds of praying, he felt a strange sensation in his body... The chap was for happy for him, the praying one, with regards to getting into the prophetic. Hope you get my drift? |
hoopernikao:The argumentative nature is a female trait. FYI, I am not a JW. I wish you the best in life. |
hoopernikao:Correction: Is Jesus Archangel Michael? Yes. There is only one Archangel. I said earlier, that Michael is the nom de guerre of Jesus. I also said that name always appeared when there was a state of war or combat. Nom de guerre means: an assumed name under which a person engages in combat. It is an assumed name; it isn’t his real name. We don’t call Christ by his combat name because we don’t need it. If you are asking if Michael is the “wrestling” name of Jesus, let me just juxtapose two set of verses from the scriptures and that’s it: 1 Thessalonians 4:16 For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trumpet of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. Matthew 24:30-31: And then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in the sky, and then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of the sky with power and great glory. And He will send forth His angels with a great trumpet and they will gather together His elect from the four winds, from one end of the sky to the other. I would want you to notice the use of the alliteration in the quote from 1st Thessalonians. It shows us that the voice of the Lord is the voice of the archangel. (I hope you know the function of the alliterative use of comma in the English language). Looking at the two quotes side-by-side, it’s quite easy to see that the Son of Man is the Archangel or the Commander of the Host of Angels. However, we don’t need the name Michael because we know the name of the man behind the mask - Jesus. |
hoopernikao:One thing you didn’t notice in all DappaD has made clear to you is this: the name Michael always appears when there is a state of war or combat. Therefore, Michael is the nom de guerre of Christ. If you understand this, you wouldn’t struggle with DappaD - he is telling you the truth. |
Hiswordxray:Okay |
Hiswordxray:Please see the question mark. |
There are seven sabbaths legislated in the Torah (The Law). They are: 1. The Feast of Passover. 2. The Feast of Unleavened bread. 3. The Feast of Firstfruits. (Feast of Shavout) 4. The Feast of Weeks. Also called The Feast of Pentecost. 5. The Feast of Trumpets. 6. The Feast of Atonement. 7. The Feast of Tabernacles. Also called The Feast of Booths or The Feast of ingathering. FIRSTFRUITS - THE FEAST OF SHAVOUT AND CHRIST (The Old Testament Perspective) Genesis 4:4: And Abel brought of the firstborn of his flock and of the fat portions. And the Lord had respect and regard for Abel and for his offering. Firstfruits, Bikkurim, in the Hebrew language, means firstborn sons or male firstling of the herd. Abel, the son of Adam, offered the firstborn, the male firstling of his herd -the firstfruit. (Genesis 4: 4). The writer of the Book of Hebrews wrote, “He offered a more excellent sacrifice”. (Hebrews 11: 4); the firstborn sacrifice of Abel was likened to sacrifice of Christ Jesus. In the Book of Genesis, Abraham took his firstborn son, the firstfruit of promise (as Paul speaks of Isaac – Galatians 4) to the peak of Mount Moriah. On this peak, he prophesies that Jehovah would provide a lamb for Himself (Genesis 22: 8 ). Calvary, where Jesus Christ was crucified, is in the mountain range of Mount Moriah - the same spot Abraham had tried to offer Isaac, his firstfruit of promise, as sacrifice. Joseph, the firstfruit of Jacob’s favoured wife, Rachel, was given the right of the firstfruit instead of Reuben. The right, symbolized by the coat of many colours, is translated as “cover of many colours” or “coat of atonement” by some scholars The word “cover” is used initially to describe God’s action in the Garden of Eden; when He slew an animal and used its skin to “cover” the shame of Adam and Eve; thus, revealing God’s plan of salvation for fallen man. It is the same word used to describe the coat Hannah brought to Samuel, her firstfruit, yearly when she came to offer the annual atoning sacrifice to the Lord of Hosts at Shiloh. On Joseph’s coat of many colours, his brothers shed on it the blood of a male firstling, a firstfruit of the herd, to mimic his blood; and they presented it to their father, Jacob. The blood of the firstfruit that Joseph’s brothers shed on the coat typified the blood of Christ which would be shed on Calvary. Jehovah ordained seven Holy days or Sabbath days. The third of the seven being the Feast of the firstborn sons, the Feast of Firstfruits. He established for them, the Hebrews, the principle of the firstfruits in the feast of Unleavened Bread. (Exodus 13:11-16) The LORD spoke to Moses (Lev.23:10-12), saying, “Speak to the sons of Israel and say to them, "When you enter the land which I am going to give to you and reap its harvest, then you shall bring in the sheaf of the first fruits of your harvest to the priest." He shall wave the sheaf before Jehovah for you to be accepted; on the day after the sabbath the priest shall wave it. And you shall offer on that day, when you wave the sheaf, a male lamb of the first year, without blemish, as a burnt offering before Jehovah.” (Leviticus 23: 10 says, “The sheaf of the firstfruit is presented to the priest who raises it up in the presence of the congregation”.) This “raising up” of the sheaf before the congregation typified the resurrection of Christ Jesus on the seventh day of the first month of the Jewish calendar - the day of the Feast of the firstfruit. On this day that Christ Jesus rose up from the grave was the same day Noah’s ark was lifted to the height of Mount Ararat (above the death beneath). The twelfth and thirteenth verses of Leviticus 23 says, ”a firstling of the flock without blemish is offered and oil is poured on its meat“. Oil in the Old-Testament did not only refer to the sanctification of a person, it also referred to conferment of nobility to such a one anointed. This mingling of oil on the firstborn lamb finds its reality in Christ Jesus. Therefore, the writer of Hebrews wrote, ”Therefore God, even thy God, hath anointed thee with the oil of gladness above thy fellows” (Hebrews 1: 9). Therefore, Christ Jesus is the firstfruit of the flock: He said, ”Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abides alone: but if it die, it brings forth much fruit”. (John 12:24). Jesus was that corn of wheat - He planted His life in the earth to bring forth an abundant harvest - those who are consecrated in Him are the fats of Abel’s sacrifice. (The Promise of God was fulfilled – God provided His own firstborn, His first fruit, His firstling, His lamb, as an atoning sacrifice for the sins of all men. This is all that the firstfruits sacrifice was - a sacrifice of atonement with God. The acceptance of Abel (Gen. 4:7) and the Children of Israel (Lev. 23:10-11) were in the offering of the Firstfruit. To the glory of God, all saints are accepted in the offering of Christ (Eph.1:6-7)) The next day, John saw Jesus coming toward him and said, "Look, the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world! (John 1:29) Acehart |
Hiswordxray:So you are Lone Ranger, No fellowship except with yourself? We see that you are leading people into the “prophetic“ - this means you have a church and you are the pastor. |
Hiswordxray:I know you are in the body of Christ. I just want to know where you meet with fellow Christians on Sundays as a pastor or member of a church. |
Maximus69:Wonders shall never end. I wish Rozz studies the passages you have quoted from before responding to you. I am happy you have opened up the core of JW theology so that she can see the implications of going through your route; and the kind of person she would become. |
What’s the name of the church you attend, whether as pastor or member? |
BadRadio:Na wa o |
delkuf:Of course the blood of Jesus Christ can nullify the works of the devil. But what works of the devil? Acts 26:18 to open their eyes so that they may turn from darkness to light and from the dominion of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins and an inheritance among those who have been sanctified by faith in Me.' Acts 26:18 says the works of Satan is in the reign of sins. What is nullified, is the dominion of Satan through sins. But 2 Corinthians 12:7 tells us that even with the Holy Spirit in you, Satan works can be a tool in God’s hand to mold a believer’s life: 2 Corinthians 12:7 for this reason, to keep me from exalting myself, there was given me a thorn in the flesh, a messenger of Satan to torment me-to keep me from exalting myself! This verse is self explanatory: God sent the satanic messenger to wroth his/its work in Paul’s life. Cut kobojunkie some slack; and see that vituperation against him aren’t justified. |
MuttleyLaff:I understand you clearly. What Maximus did was out-worldly. She is casting her stone, but she doesn’t know stones leave marks on the throwers hand. If she is married to an Igbo man, she should know that they are probably the least honourable tribe in Nigeria when it concerns women’s dignity; and their men are known to assault women - check Yaba market. So the stone has left a mark on her hands. I say this with a big “if”. |

Uhm! I hope you play video games; when you have finished an adventure game that gave you so much pleasure, did you throw it away, sell it or burn it? Why? Because it had outlived its usefulness; it became predictable; you could tell each nook and cranny of the plots and could play with your eyes closed.

I hope you understand.
