RomanceRe: 4 Types Of Women Nigerian Men Love To Marry by An2elect2(f): 11:20pm On Dec 20, 2014
aldexrio:
Dark skin beauty looks natural but light skin looks kind of artificial. So I prefer dark skin to light skin ladies.
Pls dont say this. Dark skin and light skin can look natural. Why not? they are natural colours. Bleached girls look so artificial. All their innocence fade completely with their faded complexion.

Women who bleach are so narrow and full of non existent fears. How can any woman choose ugliness(bleaching wanes beauty) over beauty just because of some shallow man who has refused to see beauty beyond a lighter hue.undecided LOL.

1 Men love good looking women not a yellow colour. Fact.

2 They love women who are fit. Who doesn't?

I agree with other points though.

Note: this is the rule.

Christianity EtcRe: What Does It Mean When The Bible Says God Gave His Only Son by An2elect2(f): 12:36am On Dec 20, 2014
ManhunterTM:
When the bible says that God gave his only Son, it seems like God is sacrificing something. How can he sacrifice something if he owns space, time, and existence, and is the master of life and death?

What is the sacrifice if His Son would return to Him anyways?

First: In the infinite time span of God, isn't a few hours of pain (even to a temporarily weakened son) meaningless when He has been around for infinite years billions of years into the past and always will be? The Son returned anyways. What sacrifice is there?

Second: "Only Son" is often emphasized. He is God. If He wished to overflow his Divinity eternally into multiple Sons and Daughters, begotten not made, as a divine Union of 10 or 100 parts, rather than 3 - He could have. This is treated as if God was subject to the unfortunate circumstances of having:

1. Only one Son
2. Had to sacrifice that only One Son.

Therefore, He loves us so much

When the reality is - what can the King of Heaven and Earth sacrifice anyways? All returns to Him and all belongs to Him. And second, if He wanted to have more Sons, and overflow his Divinity into them in pre-eternity assuming this "sacrifice" event meant something, He could have.

At no point did God lose anything, even for a moment. The Owner of Existence can't lose anything. Doesn't this make the entire thing kind of...meaningless? I just don't get it.

I purposely ignored this post and headed for the comments cos i sensed subtle arrogance in it. Unfortunately, the comments were disappointing except one.

Whenever people bring up the issue of "why did God do it this way?" i shake my head for how foolish they sound.undecided Is there not a difference between God and man? One is the creator and determiner of all things the other is a creature made from clay. The Creator makes everything for His pleasure. He ordains all things and declares them to be. He is God! God, that is enough reason to stop grumbling every time and start seeking for understanding of Him and His ways.
He is no respecter of any one! He has every right of Himself to do as He wants! He is God!

By only begotten son the scripture simply means God robed in flesh. Jesus was not just having the Spirit of God in Him(like redeemed children of God), He was the fullness of God in flesh. This was not an ordinary man!
God humbled Himself by taking up the nature of man. The creator of the whole world came to this wicked world and dwelt among men but they world rejected Him. The creature rejected the creator! Did He suffer in the hands of men? yes! did they kill Him? yes! He died a shameful death. Did they know that that was God? No! He died for 'our' sins. Without shedding of blood there can be no remission of sin! God ordained it this way. The sinless must die for the sinner for God demands a blameless one for a sacrifice. Only God meets that requirement.

And why the Son still returned since He was sacrificed? straw man. The bone of contention is that He was sacrificed. If God sees that as a sacrifice perfect and satisfying? who cares about your view point of how the sacrifice should have been.undecided
You are smarter huh?

God became 'a part' of His creature through Jesus Christ.

In explanation for the 2000 years before time, Matt 8: 29-30 -
8:29 And, behold, they cried out, saying, What have we to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of God? art thou come hither to torment us before the time?

8:30 And there was a good way off from them an herd of many swine feeding.

8:31 So the devils besought him, saying, If thou cast us out, suffer us to go away into the herd of swine.
As you can even see, the devils are not always far off their swines. So one may ask before what time? Jesus knew the understanding of that time, but He did not know when precisely. so One is to come in his name, to understand that perhaps one must know what the name Jesus means.
So what's your point pls?

Indeed, yes! you are right and i have not a single arguement about what you just wrote. Truely, Jesus did not die for all, He died for the ressurection of the mentally dead/the sheep. Nobody would have been able to kill Jesus if he wasn't ready to lay down his own life because he knew that He was almost 2000 years too early, thus He said One would come in my name, this does not mean Jesus of 2000 years ago. And like i said, you are right. Who are this mentally dead and the sheep?
Jesus died for the sins of His elect. We who were once estranged from God through one man's disobedience are being reconciled back to God and have obtained forgiveness through the remission of Christ Jesus' blood.

The consequence of sin is death. When Adam sinned he died instantly. A spiritual death(separated from God) and consequently the physical death.

Christ took upon Himself our sin and we obtained His righteousness. 2cor5:21.

What we suffered(and some of us still suffer) is spiritual death not mental death

huh? Jesus is the judge of the world and would come back again to judge all men.

It seems Jesus forgot, He did not take the sins out. The sins of today is so freaky in nature that if Jesus should come , He will tell GOD "wrong destination Father, i meant earth, not this planet sin" GOD will laugh, They thought you took their sins away, they want to escape judgement and punishments that follows. Men think that they're smart.
Jesus did not die for everybody .You mock what you do not know?
God is Wisdom. The whole world is allowed to wallow in gross darkness for the Sons of God through Christ Jesus to shine as light and as true witnesses of God.

Christianity EtcRe: Give Me A Reason To Go To Church. by An2elect2(f): 9:52pm On Dec 13, 2014
You know when i was an unbeliever i hated going to church cos i didn't see anything worthwhile in it. Church was dry for me, i was still the same, no change and those phony Christians made it harder... But God found me not in the church but outside the church!
I wasnt seeking God but He sought me out Himself.
I didn't believe Him but He caused me to believe Him.
I didn't even love God( secretely hated Him) but He loved me to love Him back.

It is the same today as it was of old God is after the Sinners not the righteous church goers who are lost anyway. He is after those who are not even seeking for Him and when He finds them He declares them to be His own people.

Church goers you ain't Christians. You are playing Christian. You have created your own god that you 'worship' once every week. Hypocrisy is your religion. You think God will wink at this? not! So many of you will be surprised that day!

It is because of you that the sheep of God are scattered all over, running from your deception. You have chased them from your midst with all your blasphemies. Ah! you will be shocked on that day! Vengeance belongs to our God!

Even God knows there are other Gods..he says in the 10 commandment hebrew " Lo yihyehlekha elohim acherim alpanai"
      ( Not, you shall have no other gods other before me)
Then he says again in Isaia 45:5 "I am the LORD, and there is none else, there is no God beside me: I girded thee, though thou hast not known me:"

That is why he is the all in all ok. Dont get confused in the person of Christ. He is the Son of God..being call God does not make him equal with Yahweh.. God is just a title ok before you start foaming through your mouth sad..Yahweh is different from Yahshua.

And I saw the nonsense and crap you were saying on the other thread I dont argue much. I tell you what it is and leave you to figure it out. Start from John 3:16 again. sad

Till you know that Yahweh is not Jesus kiss
Utter rubbish. This is how they twist scriptures to their own destruction. Look at me thinking the trinity doc is the worst explanation of God's nature. Didn't know there is one that surpassed it in confusion.
I'll advice you seek for understanding from God before you dive into what you don't understand.
