That passage itself is love, quoting the bible to point out a message is not 419. 419 is to dupe a person.


Do you think I want to dupe your heart?

spacetacular:
Funny but true.

Being "calm" has not really been my strong side but even when I "loose my cool" I try to be nice with it. I don't know if that's how it's perceived but that's how I see it.

God bless you darling.

Hi Anne, just seeing this comment of yours. Congratulations were not my interest when I made that submission. Rather inspiring someone was.

So I am not really bothered over who did or did not offer a congratulatory message but I appreciated yours though

Thank you for caring and I noticed how laid back you are. Are you always this laid back?

onyenze123:
stop shinning teeth na

I made a deal to you but you turned it down. Don't you want to save a soul?

Behold i stand by the door and knock, whoever hears and opens the door, i will come in and sup with him.

but whoever refuses to open the door? The Master won't force.

analice107:
Sis. Its good you have energy to respond to him, but see, he lied. Every thing he said about words coming to him in form of threats are lies. God does not threaten anyone. If God didn't threaten Nebuchadnezzar or all the Baal high Priests with scriptures, who is Otem.

Yahweh will stoop to threaten Otem, what a waste of time. He didn't threaten Aton LaVey the founder of the Cburch of satan, nah this demented urchin.

Did you ever hear or read from the pages of scriptures that Jesus Christ gave any attention to Satan while on earth, talk less of threatening him? Never. The sons of perdition are irrelevant.

Life and death, light and darkness are presented before us, what we choose is what we'll live by. No threats, and for what?

Otem must feel like he is somebody.

Wilgrea7:
good works? nah.. anyone could fake that.. i also have a different concept of the afterlife... sometimes I'm not sure I'd qualify as a Christian.. maybe I'll drop the label

of course.. i don't deny the divinity of Christ.. its just that i have a different view of things.. there are very different views of Jesus



i guess i learn new things everyday.. I'm on a journey to discover the real Jesus... the historical one... if it coincides with the biblical view, I'll be back to my old self.. if not, I guess I'll find out then

onyenze123:
He follows the some teachings of Christ but doesn't believe Christ died for him. That's his own denomination. We have some many denominations and they have caring doctrines and dogmas.

Do you understand?

Wilgrea7:
personally, i don't think its much of a big deal.. but then.. I'm not one of the Christians who believe a jew from 2000 years ago died for my sins

lepasharon:
She is alot like him. She's trying to establish herself in this section.

Damogul told a petty lie -AMONG MANY-that he was half European, but now we all know what he looks like...haha. Stuff like that

The point is, ppl can be what they want in cyberspace. Take what they say at face value, especially ppl coming in the name of god

MrSinister:
I have a problem with the sentence in bold. You see, I have never done this before but I will today. You spoke of comfort zone, as if I have been enjoying before. Everything I have tried to succeed on my own (apart from academics) has not yielded results (in fact they all failed). I am not rich. I have suffered a lot, but I don't take the bad things I have experienced to heart, because I believe that when there's life there's hope. I am not saying God has not blessed me, at least I have had a lot of near death experiences (some of which I am aware of and some of which I am not) and I am still alive because of Him. The impression that I am in comfort does not correspond with what I experienced in recent times. I ignored the poster that claimed that I am about to become broke, because I no kukuma get money before. There's no comfort to be taken away, because it was not there in the first place. That's why I am a bit skeptical about this. Maybe otematum is right; it might just be my mind playing tricks on me. I don't know. I still acknowledge God, but I am not serving Him.

OtemAtum:
That is the work of emotions and the brain. Whenever anybody has switched off from a particular religion or is no more serious about that religion. Anyday such person reflects about the past, his brain would go deep into where some memories of the past are stored and fetch him a suitable memory either to bring him back to that former religion or to threaten him.

How many bible passages of threats has been shoved over my face? Countless. Many of the urims of the bible come have come to me in mt sleep but because my emotion of fear has been removed, I was never moved.

In fact, my best nights are the nights when I sleep and see bible passages like "I will tear you up...I will bring the diseases of the Egyptians upon you...I will send the cankerworms, palmerworms, etc my armies after you..."

Wetin concern me. If they like they should send rains of arrows na them sabi.

lepasharon:
Congratulations for what? I'm not even sure the person behind that moniker is even female.

Remember damogul? I'm sure you would turn a blind eye to that

LightandDarkness:
I can't remember the last time I personally insulted a theist because of their religion, we are not all ebuka.

KingEbukaNaija:
Atheism begat malevolence , Atheists gloat over misfortunes of people who believe in God

Here is a thread showing atheists worldwide calling for the massacre of people who believe in God

https://www.nairaland.com/3176513/atheist-murderers-past-present-murderous


Have you wondered why atheists never congratulate your on your testimonies ? They always criticize your testimonies about God's goodness in your life. And anytime anyone who believes in God shares his grief about his misfortunes , atheists come in their numbers to mock and ridicule you and the unfortunate predicament you are facing . This is because of their unbelief in the existence of God . They believe life is meaningless and purposeless that's why they celebrate when you are miserable because they don't want you to be happy .

Please beware of this evil and false belief called atheism ! It is dangerous ! It can destroy you !

Beware !

frank317:
When he committed adultery, he was outrightly condemed by Yahweh. But when he called non believers fool he wasn't. U are trying to play politics with what is glaring.
Beside Christians say this with authority, pastors say it on the pulpit. Where the hell do u think they learnt it from and this is what matters. If God inspired the Bible, he also inspired David to call people who do not believe in him fools.


What's this information for? Why will I care if u think I am a fool or not. I am still trying to grasp why u have to say this

Deicide:
Seriously you honestly believe this crap? mind you Muslims also believe that their holy book was inspired by God in fact written by God......so bennyann i ask again do you honestly believe that crap or it's just what you want to believe?

frank317:
Why would God inspire any one to write it if he does not want u to follow it.

Do u actually see how u Christians change mouth when cornered?

God inspired David o call people fools for saying he does not exist and u are here saying what I don't understand

hopefulLandlord:
first off, "Biblical Christianity" is a meaningless term cuz I'm pretty sure you're a "biblical Christian" and many other christian sects are not "biblical Christians" *according to you*

now to the main question

What country do you live in? I'm going to assume you're in Nigeria like most other people here. When most of the population is Christian in one form or another it means that they're the ones most likely for us to run into on a daily basis. It's a numbers game really when you get down to it.

But you can also think of it this way. When was the last time a Jew came to your door, gave you a pamphlet and asked you to join their congregation? When was the last time a Buddhist stood on a street corner and yelled at everybody that they were all going to be punished if they didn't repent and follow the ways of the Buddha? When was the last time a Muslim got offended because you didn't pray towards Mecca five times a day like he had?

I'm going to assume that the answers to that is zero. Now the last time a Christian came to my door, gave me a pamphlet and wanted me to join their congregation was literally LAST NIGHT when some Jehova's Witnesses came by. I told them I was Jewish, which I'm not, and they left rather quickly. When was the last time a Christian stood on a street corner and said I and everybody else was going to hell if we didn't repent of our sins and convert to Christianity? That was TODAY as I was out and about getting stuff done and had to go downtown. And when was the last time a Christian got offended because I didn't say grace before eating my lunch? That was TWO DAYS AGO at a dinner on Monday. According to her I need to thank God for my food before eating it. I told her to mind her own business because it doesn't involve her.

I haven't even talked about witnessing Christians ridiculing one another many times, face to face, and even on these very pages. I've seen articles written by Christians about other Christians. They can get pretty nasty about it.

In truth, I have no problem with a person's religion or religious views until they take it upon themselves to try and push it on me. I've got close friends that are Christian, Jewish, Muslim, Buddhist and one really weird one who likes to say he's a Pagan and I don't have problem with them cuz they don't get in my face. You can wear purple robes eat cardboard and worship the almighty chia pet in your home or church and I have no problem with what you believe. The minute you think that because you worship the almighty chia pet you can pass laws and restrict the rights of others and everyone must join you in doing whatever you do, then I have a problem with your beliefs. You don't like how people live their lives because it is not how the almighty chia pet wants you to live your life? take a clue from the Amish go isolate yourself somewhere and leave everyone else alone.

So what it comes down to is so long as you pray in your own way and don't try to get in my face and don't try to push your beliefs into the secular world I've got no issue with you or any other religious dude. And this counts for most atheists I've met as well.

Do you think this thread makes sense?

This guy has carried all the ad hominems he has been using since I joined nairaland into one thread, like his week is not okay if he doesn't insult one atheist.

geoworldedu:
The doctrine is anti-religion in nature, but pro-morality. It exposes the morality of the past people as well as their immoralities. It has opend my eyes to see that there isn't any much difference between the morality of our forefathers and our own moralities, it's only beliefs that changed.

frank317:
Yes it is the same thing because he is an authority for Christians. Christians believe that all what's written in the Bible was inspired by God, so don't make objections when situations like this arise.
We see Christians quoting it left right and center on this forum and beyond, where did u think they heard it from? Let me give u that answer: BIBLE.
If David had not said it, Christians will not quote it without feeling that are insulting the person they are referring to.

How was he supposed to know what a man thinks? You should ask him, perhaps he was high on some holy weed when he said it.
