Yesterday when the news of the Pope denying the teaching of the hell fire broke, lots of persons here expressed there disappointment in the news although it was later said to be fake news. Many who where disappointed expressed fear that the alleged denial by the Pope of the existence of hell fire would encourage people to sin. But the question is, is hell fire really a deterrent to SINNING? Well some historians and scholars have it that hell fire doctrine has as one of its major goals, deterring people from committing sin for fear of eternal torment. But has this fear really prevented people from SINNING? Far from it. It would Interest you to note that the hell fire doctrine is a doctrine held by not just Christians, but even Muslims, and many other religions around the World, but rather than this popular doctrine and belief making the world sin free, the world as we all can attest has become a more dangerous place; sin abounds world over. In fact as 2Timothy 3:13 says, "wicked men and impostors have advanced from bad to worse". Suffice to say this wicked men and women are persons belonging to one of the many religions who believe in hell fire reward for evil committed. Worthy of note and indeed amazingly, Jehovah's witnesses do not believe this doctrine. There reason? You can find out on your own from there members or there publications, but what Interests me is that in spite of not having this fear of eternal torment, they strive to live as much as possible by Bible principles. Off Course they are not perfect, but they closely follow in the footsteps of Christ and his teachings. Many around the world have even said about them that if everybody on earth where Jehovah's witnesses, there would be no need for as many policemen as we have today, that the world would be a more peaceful place to live. It's also worth noting that many who do not believe in the existence of God let alone any eternal place of torment, have shown themselves to be fair in there dealings with fellow man and even nature. They have recognised the value of Charity rather than taking away from the poor as seen in many religious organizations. They believe in no God, fear no eternal torment after death, yet they do good. In conclusion, there are many who believe the hell fire doctrine and yet they they fear God and do what is Good, yes! As there are many who believe in the hell fire doctrine and yet by there way of life, they show a lack of the fear of God in there lives or even the fear of any hell fire. Therefore, it is clear that, what motivates a person to do what is good and hate what is bad is love for God and not the fear of some eternal punishment in a fiery hell. (psalms 97:10). |
The idea of jumping out to the street has not been the norm in southern Nigeria, except off course during campaigns. This whole crowd gathering to welcome the dullard is all a white wash. A president popularity should not be measured by such displays. Anybody can rent a crowd. This whole noise about and display of crowd is indicative of a serious doubt about his popularity. His true popularity will be measured in the ballot, not on some rented crowd who may not even have voter cards. |
buhariguy:Mr. Idiotic Arewa parasite; where is the crowd? For the population of a state like Lagos, you call this well organised group of apc members all lined up a crowd? Am sure you must have drank your sugary tea from the same rubber kettle you use to wash your stinking balls this evening. Lazy dumb parasites. |
The only specie of snake more dangerous than the viper is the AFONJA ![]() |
I wonder how all those ministers dey manage hear the English wey him dey speak. Or do they all understand Hausa? I hardly hear a thing he say in English. God help us |
Help help help!!! Nairaland miscreants and lunatics on the loose. It's King Tomentor NNAMDI KANU'S matter o! They break off there chains and cages whenever his matter appears on Nairaland . They usually can't sleep, eat, bath, even Brush there teeth once they see or hear his matter. |
alan056:And I'm sure you're a lazy looser already working towards swindling the gullible public of there resources in the name of God. Your judgement will be times 1000. Afonja Lazy fraudster. |
Ortom is just been clever. Don't blame him. He's simply following in the footsteps of the Hausa Fulani politicians. They tell bakwomi even when they plan to kill you the next minute. Take Ortom' s words seriously at your peril. You don't expect him to say People used by guns after just leaving a meeting with the dullard. |
An afonja poster the other day said a similar killing of an Igbo youth in Canada the other day must have been drug related. This I guess must be 419 related I guess? Tragedy knows no tribe People. My heart goes out to the family. No parent should have to go through this indescribably painful experience. |
henrygale:Depending on what you do for a living, a lot of potential customers this day will have no business dealings with you if true Caller says your name is "X" and it turns out your true name is "Y". I have seen it happen countless times. I for feel more comfortable when I speak with a stranger whose name matches his true Caller identity, else I'm usually very sceptical. The technology has its downside though just like most manmade this I know, but it's the new normal(technology), embraces it with its folly or get left behind. |
" RAT POISON" ? That strikes a chord!!! ![]() |

Tall guys are always taken |
Biglittlelois:I understand your situation sis. If you want to kill a Dog, you begin calling it a bad name. And when the desired becomes unattainable the attainable becomes desired. Tall guys can be very out teach I understand. Enjoy your average boys, at least they are abundant and easy to hook up. |
Lol.... ![]() I'm really amazed by how foolish and blind people can be. Excuse me!!!! Do you really need Freeze to tell you those men are nothing but scammers. They tell you for example that everything in life is Destiny, you believe them, yet you bolt your door like a maximum security prison before going to sleep for fear of attack at night? If its been destined that you'll be robbed or not be robbed, why lock the door anyway if your life is ruled by Destiny? It won't change a thing will it? Yet this men of God preach this and other falsehood to you, you believe them without questions, and yet you say you re not blind? The man who chooses to use his God given brain questions there teachings and you attack him for daring to use his brain? Even young people? Satan truly has blinded the minds of people so that truth will not shine through. |
Dreamwaker:"YOU" will die like Mosquito too. Your hate is a hate taken too far. A mother lost a son and after reading her painful story, the only thing your heart could conceive is this nonsense? I feel for you! You've lost your mind. |
buhariguy:I've never seen a looser so pained as you. I am convinced you have nightmares because of igbo people matter. Unless you reduce your hatred, I see stroke on your doorstep. Please help your mother and self stay alive and healthy. You've been warned. |
Iblad0994:That will be a good idea. Fulani herdsmen Igbo drug dealers Yoruba Skull miners Yoruba ritualist Yoruba Rapist Corrections are welcome |
Truth is when the time comes for Igbo Presidency, nothing will stop it. The worst mistake Nigeria can ever make is to deny Igbos the opportunity when the time comes. At that time the only possible reason and alternative will be that Igbos are not accepted in Nigeria and should therefore go there way. The question is, will Nigeria choose that option? Your guess is as good as mine. But then again, the only real reason Nigeria is still one and the Presidency is highly sought after is because of oil. Unfortunately, it's crumbling soon, and when that happens, Nigerians will begin to look for credible people who can create wealth to lead the country. This looters and power mongers will give away because they are not prepared to govern without free money from oil. As far am concerned, Igbos should adopt sitdown dey look approach. We need not fight for the Presidency, after all we live far better than those with the power. Let them have the power and let us have our brains; that they can never take away. Igbo mma mma nu!!!!!!! |

Jehovah's witnesses are the only ones doing that. I don't see any other organisation(s) ever being able to do so. The witnesses don't just do it, they enjoy doing it, it seems. Somebody must work very hard to convince me, they do not practice the only true religion, because for all I see, they are the only ones practising the teaching of Christ. |
JideAmuGiaka:Me too. |
Why is this news not in front page 3 days after? oh oh oh!!! Cowardice I guess. But if na ipob or benue now, it would have been there since. Yoruba people and wickedness plus hypocrisy. Una dey dey fear make fulani no come for counter reprisal. Yeye cowards. I get bad news for una; they are aware and at the right us go answer for una sins. Una go explain where una get the balls to attack una Masters |

500NLaccounts:You would only understand the day you become a man. Until then you will never understand. Sorry! I wonder how you'll feel if your mother in law who is a renown cook occassional bring sumptuous meals to your husband without your consent. And probably, you're not even good at cooking. Always assume there are things you don't understand, rather than simply condemn others for the choices they make. |

fiizznation:Bros even if we ranch you, you will not die. As long as you're feed with tuwo and miyan kuka, you will live. Stop fooling yourself. There is no animal that can't be confined and raised successfully. Why are your brother in prison not dying because they are caged? Abeg park one side Mr. shithole professor. |
For the first time in almost a year, I slept and woke up with Nepa light. Thank God the weather was Clement. I just hope America has not shutdown our power grid. |
This man a beg do quick make this camera man snap us, I wan pea for my my pampers here o ![]() |
sarrki:And you're supposed to be a progressive right? Not with all the bigotry and hatred and stupidity you display on Nairaland. Please take time to Google your true identity and what you stand for. At best, I've always assumed you are a minor though. Hopefully you'll grow up someday. |
