And please endeavour to search before posting.

Thanks!

Thank you Kunle.

Please endeavour to always search before posting, no matter how eager you are to start a discussion, or how eager you are to be the first to.

am saying pastor chris is a phoney and all christianity is phoney

Na you know.

This thread has the same idea: Is Religion a Business?

Remember no duplication of threads


And besides the title is not suitable.

paulipopo:
I did not mean it that way and I am not angry with you I was only trying to make you understand my point about the time I put into this course.

I didnt mean it that way either!!

With or without your post, its a very wise saying.

Some people in the name of being liberal loose their common sense.

bindex:
i believe he meant the God of the old testament.

God is the same yesterday, today and forever!!

paulipopo:
Please remain open minded like you have been through out.

Here's a little joke:

Don't be so open-minded that your brains fall out!

In Jesus' name,

Sisikill:
Anyone else getting a Trials of Brother Jero vibe with this?

Who is brother Jero?

Please e ma binu the thread will go back to its place in a mo.

My mistake.

Y'all are going off topic.

All discussions regarding islam go to Islam for Muslims section.

There is a difference between being tempted and falling for temptation.

Think about this:


And lead us not into _{(falling for)} temptation, but deliver us from evil

And lead us not into _{(being killed in)} war , but deliver us from death

See?

The sense behind the temptation of Job for example is a test or a trial. God wanted to see whether Job really loved Him. In fact, it was the devil who asked God to tempt Job.
JOb 1- Then Satan answered the LORD, and said, Doth Job fear God for nought?

10Hast not thou made an hedge about him, and about his house, and about all that he hath on every side? thou hast blessed the work of his hands, and his substance is increased in the land.

11But put forth thine hand now, and touch all that he hath, and he will curse thee to thy face.
(the test)
12And the LORD said unto Satan, Behold, all that he hath is in thy power; only upon himself put not forth thine hand.

A soft answer turns away wrath, so the bible says!!

mazaje:
the hebrew god is indeed a dangerous sadist, read the old testament and you will confirm that he is really a sadist. . . .

So you give [b]G[/b]od a nationality based on five out of several books?

I wonder

This changes nothing.

The fool still says in his heart that there is no God.

And the stick man(in this video) still ends up in hell.

It's supposed to be a satire but it only brings out the harsh reality.

Chrisbenogor:
@A_K_O
Seems I am sending the wrong message across. But I mean was the boy destined to die at the moment, I am not looking for reasons why he died that would not be possible to ascertain from the spiritual point of view, physically he was shot. Were the events that led up to his shooting ordered or random? Thats what I mean.

Okay, but I dont believe that they were random. The events that led up to his shooting happened for a reason and that reason we may never know.

Chrisbenogor:
@A_K_O
Not salvation bro I mean the event, (accident in this case) which could be anything.
But are both of them not events?(salvation and accident)
Just asking

Pilgrim.1 is right. There is nothing like fate and even 'luck' in christianity. The bible doesnt suggest.

Only God knows why exactly the young boy died. Because it is only Him that can see everything including all that happens behind the scenes.
If we try to figure out why,. we could end up with thousands of possible reasons. Did the boy dishonour his parents and hence didnt live long in the land of the living(Eph. 6:2)? Did he refuse to pray that day? Had he fulfilled his destiny already? ETC.

So its best we leave it to God.

manmustwac:
@post
so why are you guys saying pastor chris is a phoney? as far as am concerned the whole christian religion is a phoney.

The big hole in your assertion is that Pastor Chris is not a representative sample of Christianity; if we are to look at things from your point of view.

Chrisbenogor:
I don't want anyone to judge, I am just saying given the syntax of events that the boy had to arrive at the right time, and the girl had to make that split second choice to leave and the driver had to drive at a certain speed to reach the spot where he was shot at the very second they got there.
Where these events ordered(divine) or were they random?

But you, my friend, are now looking at two different things.

What should we discuss: the accident or salvation?

Remember that you are going to loose quality by compressing

But you know some (not everything) of this gossip is kinda eye-opening.

The ROR stuff seems wrong but I understand where they are coming from. I hope you hear it from their own mouths.

Notwithstanding we shall love all men as Christ loves them.

Well it looks like you've got yourself into a big mess.

What kind of person is this your boss?

I dunno

I digress of necessity, please

CGKing:
it is not like that. That someone believes anything about christianity or Pastors
is obviously not a threat to anyone's christian beliefs. So there is no reason for anyone to get personal.
I  personaly, have a concern for people reading these messages because from my understanding, they posses the potential
to hurt the reader, especialy where a church or pastor is being condemned unjustly.

You are right. It is not a threat but may be considered an insult. Some may find it offensive. And thats why they sometimes take it personal.

I  believe that this thread is no more than an unecessary attack on christians.

Name calling is against the rules.

The responses of others have also informed my decision to lock it.

mazaje:
thats a typical response you get from a christain when you tell them that you don't believe in god. . . .  you can't have it both ways. . . . .  christains expect us to respect their beliefs but they are quick to look down or disparage the athiest for their own beliefs. . . .wasting your time you say. . .  that is the typical response  you get from christains when you tell them you don't believe in any god/gods. . . .  and when we challenge their faith they get angry. . .

In as much as I do not approve of Cayon's name-calling _{(unless stupeee is a compliment)}, do you guys really want to know more or are you just being on the offensive? You need to think about that.

Speaking in tongues is not supposed to be taught like you would teach a child ABC.

If anybody would rather call it a gift, fine. But its definately not to be taught.

Does any other christian have anything to add?

They are little children. Do you think God would be angry at them for doing what they cant understand yet?
