Am not a catholic ..Jesus is the son of Yahweh, not Yahweh himself ok...two separate beings.

Rilwayne001:
Thats not the answer to my question, read it again

Rilwayne001:
I am not a catholic,

Now do you know much about the religion you profess?

Rilwayne001:
He said the truth

I guess you don't know much about the religion you profess, do you?

@bold, Jesus(the Son) is not Yahweh(the father)..Jesus is from Yahweh but not Yahweh himself...though he carries his father's name too [b]YAH[/b]shua

The Pope knows more about Islam than we do. I want to believe he knows what he's doing. If he is sincerely doing this for the sake of love and peace time will tell.
But there is a prophecy in Rev. 17 and 18.
I rest my case.

Dapo777:
Yes I agree with you. If there truly exist a GOD who is omnipotent omnipresent omniscient, I doubt we would have freewill, GOD would be in control of everything we would be nothing but puppets in his hands if he exist. Freewill is an illusion

Dapo777:
In fact ,me being born into this world isn't my freewill. I didn't decide to come into this world I just met myself in this world against my will.

I am not completely ruling out the existence of GOD I am skeptical about God's existence.

Lol man how is that question relevant to this discussion? When I came to nairaland last year January I was still a Christian, I saw nairaland as a good avenue for seeking help and getting suggestions on any life issues that was why I came to nairaland.

Gombs:
Because God loves him regardless

Dapo777:
noun: freewill
1.
the power of acting without the constraint of necessity or fate; the ability to act at one's own discretion.
synonyms: self-determination, freedom of choice, autonomy, liberty, independence

Following that definition, everyone has freewill except those who believe in a deity that wants them to do the deity's will,those people don't have freewill they have been coerced to do the will of the deity and not theirs freewill is an illusion in religion. But I who don't believe in a deity, I have freewill because I don't act out of fear of hell or out of hope of heaven I do things according to my own will not influenced by any irrational beliefs.

Mind you,science is not my authority I am an independent person,I don't follow any dogma I am flexible.

Emusan:
In fact the bolded part fall out of logic. How can man MAKE A DECISION WITHOUT FIRST THINK?

What is FREEWILL? FREEWILL is the power of acting without the constraint of necessity or fate; the ability to act at one's own discretion or Free will is the ability to make choices without external coercion.

@bold-Now what is discretion? Discretion is the freedom to decide what should be done in a particular situation.
Again how can one make decision without first THINK?

In light of this can a man carried out any action without first REASON IT WITHIN HIM/HERSELF?



It's nothing more than power to make decision.



The only circumstances that influence our thought is what is going on around us and circumstances that consequently affect our decision is the result of our THOUGHT when we applied the POWER OF REASONING.

Truly, no scripture talks about freewill but we have many references within the scripture on how people used it.

Dapo777:
Yes there is freewill but I don't believe GOD cares about the freewill of those that are tortured on earth unfairly, Which Ofcourse is not their will to be tortured

Gombs:
Be strong in the Grace that is in Christ Jesus

Gombs:
No mind frosbel and Pastor Kun...I'd tive them grace till July next year



What lies?

Dapo777:
Give your points against mine.

Dapo777:
See the silly excuses Christians give for their sky dad. The woman chose to roll on the floor crying? You are such a senseless individual. So if your mum gets beaten by thugs I am sure a nonsensical person like you would blame your mum for not fighting back. So you would blame your mum for getting beaten? Are you this dumb in real life? Or you are just acting dumb on nairaland? You are indeed a senseless person.

PastorKun:
The only conclusion I come to after reading this thrash is that you lack basic comprehension skills and that you are extremely very daft. No point debating with you.

Emusan:
I reply this post to educate you on the issue you know nothing about but thinking you know it all because this your analogy is poor and below logical reasoning.

Firstly, God wants to create and He did create all things.
Secondly, God also wants to create BEINGS much like Himself and He did create them.
Thirdly, the BEINGS who God wants to create MUST NOT BE/ACT AS A ROBOT.
Fourthly, so these BEINGS were created WITH POWER OF REASONING that is ability to perceive & receive instruction, and make a decision on those instruction.
Fifthly, God knows that this ability (POWER OF REASONING) can be misused so God placed a set of code i.e COMMANDMENT in between to guide any BEING how to make use of this ability.

The first BEING to misuse his POWER OF REASONING is LUCIFER.

I think as a rational being the argument you can bring to make you look logical should be, why would God create BEING with ABILITY TO REASON and couldn't give every detail about it?

So whosoever misuse his/her POWER OF REASONING decided to act contrary to the commandment of God.

In fact the second greatest commandment is love your neighbour as yourself, so if those thugs love the woman BY OBEYING THE COMMANDMENT of God would they beat her up as you described? Obviously NOT.

Finally, God knows BEINGS He endorsed with POWER OF REASONING can misuse it BUT He also place a commandment that guide them whether they're using it in a RIGHT way or in a WRONG way.

To ask why God then create them when He knows that they will misuse it, is to go against the decision of God which is "God wants to create".

I will now put this question to you, is it possible for MAN to prove the existence of evil wrong? that is it possible for MAN to start doing what we know as good?

Dapo777:
A mother and her child were walking along a dark street,suddenly two harmed men came out and confronted them,one of the armed men took the child apart and the other one began to hit the woman,punching her really hard,pushed her on the floor and began to hit her, while her son watches in horror.
Meanwhile GOD is sitted on his throne watching this happen.
Me: GOD why don't you do something to stop this man from hurting the poor mother?
GOD: I am not supposed to stop him from harming the mother because that would be interfering with his freewill.
Me: So you want him to be able to exercise his freewill to decide by himself not to hurt the mother again,right?
GOD: Yes exactly.
Me: OK you have preserved the freewill of the man now.
GOD: Yes I have.
Me: What about the mother,is it her freewill to be beaten up by the man?
GOD: Hmmmm,no it's not her freewill.
Me: So that means you are in favour of the armed man's freewill and against the freewill of the mother.
GOD: it seems that way,but that's not how it is.
Me: since you care about everyone's freewill why don't you save the mother since She hasn't done anything wrong to deserve the beating?
GOD: I am not supposed to do that,I am supposed to remain hidden.
Me: So by splitting the red sea into two,turning water into wine,turning a stick into snake,making a tree catch fire without getting burnt,bring a whole human (Jesus) to be the saviour of the world is being hidden? So you would rather be hidden than save the poor woman.
GOD: shutup!!!!!! I am GOD how dare you question me? Don't you know my ways are mysterious! Human comprehension cannot understand me. Just shutup!!
Me: So why do we have the Bible then? Since we cant understand your ways.
GOD: am out!
