Christianity EtcRe: The Misconception Of Proverbs 18:22: Advice To Young Men by bixton(m): 9:59am On Dec 23, 2024
Krismas:
1. It is foolish to justify the bible with the bible
2. Inspite of all your rhetorics, you failed to tell me what Jesus means
3. The only reason why u quote from the bible is cos u BELIEVE its the book of truth. which is a pathetic assumption
Why will I want to use another thing to justify the Book of Truth when others before me have done such and even more. It would be more really really really foolishly stupid of me to be doing such.

The Holy Bible is the not just a book but the Book that is the WAY, TRUTH AND LIFE. It is. Ot in it's letters per SE but in the spirit of the words there in and only given to those who are humble enough to seek understanding from God through Christ Jesus.

Nevertheless, since you don't believe in Jesus Christ. Can you tell us what is it you believe in or on and if there is any kindly on your own make an intentional comparison with a sincere heart.
Anyone can believe in anything and his believe can work for him but the interesting thing about JESUS CHRIST is that there's absolutely no comparison whatsoever.
Power pass power and it's definite. Personal experience is the best form of answer after reading, understanding and meditating on the word of God.

Krismas:
shocked gospel is combination of god + spell. Its a spell essentially. The so-called gospel was NEVER written by Mattew, mark Luke or john. Uptil today, the Greek scripts of the gospels has no authors at their headings. The writer of 1st peter is not the writer of 2nd peter. Paul did not write more than 4 or 5 books of the NT. The Holy Spirit is a female. And LORD or YHWH is Cronus, i.e Zeus' father.
Solomon never existed, talkless of writing Proverbs. Christianity is a massive pathetic fraud. One has to really be an out-out fool, swallowing cooked-up thrash u typed above, without trying to verify the claims.
Atleast u can start by telling us what Jesus mean.
If you clearly read what I posted then you'll know what Jesus clearly means.
You can call it a pathetic fraud but then this is what the Bible says even as said by the way Apostles.....

1Cor.15.19 - If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men the most pitiable.

Matt.1.21 - And she will bring forth a Son, and you shall call His name JESUS, for He will save His people from their sins."

The meaning of JESUS is in the text above. I hope you can find it.


Luke.1.31 - And behold, you will conceive in your womb and bring forth a Son, and shall call His name JESUS.
Luke.1.32 - He will be great, and will be called the Son of the Highest; and the Lord God will give Him the throne of His father David.


The meaning of JESUS is also in the text above. I do hope you can find it.


You just remind me of those people Apostle Paul met in the city and in that temple where they had statutes of various idols they worshipped with their names on it and with one statute with inscription unknown god.
Christianity EtcRe: The Misconception Of Proverbs 18:22: Advice To Young Men by bixton(m): 2:55am On Dec 23, 2024
Krismas:
The meaning of Jesus is Iesous, which is SON OF ZEUS. Since Zeus has many children, the particular one worshipped by Christians is Dionysus [lord of heaven] [only begotten]
Jesus is a Greek idol. whos father Zeus is also known as Satan.
Jesus cannot save anyone.
Christianity is the ignorance of venerating foolish Greek gods.
The gospel of Christ Jesus is the wisdom of God and power of God.

The gospel of Christ Jesus is foolishness to those who are perishing but those who are being saved, it is the power of God.

Jesus Christ, is the way, the truth and the life. No man can cometh to the Father but by through Him.

The law of the Lord is perfect converting the soul. The testimony of the Lord is sure making wise the simple, The statues of the Lord are right rejoicing the heart; The commandment of the Lord is pure enlightening the eyes: The fear of the Lord is clean enduring forever. The judgements of the Lord are true and righteous altogether.

from my understanding, the bible advice us not to get married to avoid the trouble of life...

1 Corinthians 7:27-28 EASY
[27] If you have a wife, do not try to send her away. If you do not have a wife, do not try to marry.

[28] But if you do marry, that is not wrong. And if a young woman marries, that is not wrong. But people who marry will have many troubles during their life together. I want to save you from problems like that.
Not every translation is usable and able to pass the real intended message and that's why for Bible study people are referred to KJV/NKJV and Amplified versions.
This Easy translation especially the later part of verses 28 is more of the letter than the spiritual aspect.

can you do us a favor by explaining 1 Corinthians 7:27-28 too
1Cor.7.27 - Are you bound to a wife? Do not seek to be loosed. Are you loosed from a wife? Do not seek a wife .

The above simply says if you are married do not divorce her and it's both ways for the couples. If you are not yet married do not desire to be married.





1Cor.7.28 - But even if you do marry, you have not sinned; and if a virgin marries, she has not sinned. Nevertheless such will have trouble in the flesh, but I would spare you .

The above says if you desire to marry and be married it's not a sin and you have not sinned and though she may be a virgin.
The issue about having trouble in the flesh, have to do with the wife now will have to put herself subject to her husband.



Modified:
Both verses has in it's context the role the woman plays in her committed service rendered to God put into consideration.
We should note that it's same for the man as well.

Go and ask those states what they saw and huddles they have to pass. So, why centralize such critical infrastrutue in the first place?
If not for such useless law, a state like Lagos would have generated enough electricity.
Pls, lets not pretend like Nigeria is properly structured. No other country on earth has the type of Nigeria's structure. And Yorubas and fulanis who have ruled this country for more than 50 years could not for once fix this core problem. They kept ruling and couldnt solve national problems such as electrictity. Did central govt even solve electricity problem in Aso Rock? They couldnt.
Yorubas and fulanis single handledly destroyed Nigeria with their leadership.

Look at this one, bring fact! Why do u think Nigerians have been glamouring for decentralization?
Who controls the center has control over the following:
The executive list which is the core of Nigeria.
Controls the police
controls the military and all security agencies
controls INEC
Controls water ways
control oil and gas
controls the judges
Influences the national assembly
controls CBN

The list goes on and on. That is why the ethnic groups fight blood to take charge of the center.
Yorubas and Fulanis have enjoyed this central power for decades but couldnt provide Nigeria ordinary electricty.
It was Buhari who decentralized Electricity. It has been in the hands of the central govt for decades.
The central govt single handedly took control of Federal universities and determines what should be taught and what should be researched on.
They closed down all research centers in the University of Nigeria, Nsukka after the war. What a funny country. Countries develop based on research and science and technology. This one, because of fear of seccession, they closed down researches, limited international access by other regions. The list goes on. Do u think u are discussing with naive person? I am well read and well traveled at my young age.
Nobody agrees to be naive. Even many of the political leaders and those who have been elected or appointed at one point in governance and admnisration are also well-read and well travelled.
I guess the man who controls the center is responsible for developing the rest of the country. Thank you very much. The only difference between the man at the centre and the one at the State or Local government is just the name, title and privileges.
But a coconut remains a coconut.
Before PMB decentralized electricity as you said, Bayelsa State of now had the Imiringi gas turbine project an independent one running since the days of old Rivers State and that project was generating and distributing electricity to Yenagoa and environs up till PGEJ was in office and Bayelsa State for some political reasons was added to the national grid and the independent gas project went comatose. There was also the independent gas project built in PHC by the Gov.Peter Odili admnisration and it fully because functional under the Gov. CRA tenure and some of it was added to the national grid as we were told.
I can't really remember but I think there are other States that had independent power projects before the decentralization of the electricity in the nation.
So......
No one can (truly) give what they don't have.

He doesn't have the authority to request for their financial records if the amended LG constitution from the FG has already stipulated an auditor general for the LGAC.
I just hope this governor is literate enough to read legal documents because he might be in for a serious issue before the expiration of his first tenure if he continues this way about governance and admnisration.

Sen. Dickson has he ever told the FG to fund Agriculture for those in Bayelsa State and in the South South region?
Why don't he asked the FG to gift those into cassava planting, yam, rice, poultry, etc, modern farming equipments and even tractors, irrigation systems to help aid their farm crops growth.

The judge that presided over that case and passed that judgment should be sentenced to death.

As for the governor Adeleke, rather than use this as only a means to score cheap political point, you should be looking into the kind of laws or loopholes in the law that will give a judge that kind of power to sentence someone to death over theft of a chicken. Except there is more to this case than we are being told, the root is what we should be cutting not the leaves.
Don't put up a comment making it seems it's a general thing.
The judge may be acting within the confines of the Osun State criminal laws and I still believe that judge is from the SHC.
It's for Gov. Adeleke and the SNA to look into te State criminal laws and do an amendment. It's pathetic that such laws still exists for death penalty where as those who steal the State resources and bleed the State have not even received such judgment if at all they were ever found.
It's same thing for those in the North who practice Sharia. We have not seen them carry out judgment against the rich who commit same offenses.

UltraSolid:
Those are allegations you cannot prove. You should refrain from dealing in heresay and sidetalk if a person genuinely and mainly concerned with leaders providing solutions to drive Nigeria towards developed nation status. If critical thinking you should be focusing on what matters progressively for Nigeria.

For example, you should be querying Shetimma's effort to secure education for the entire North and end the redundant practices of almajiri system that are both causes of illiteracy, youth restiveness and unemployment which combine to be effective recruitment Sergeants for terrorism, banditry and kidnapping gangs across the North.

My concern is that so many expensively educated Northern leaders, from Shetimma to SLS and co, are good at eloquently talking the talk but not one appears able to walk the walk , like Awolowo, leading to the North now having one of the worst human development index on Earth and contributing 87% to the number of most poverty-stricken Nigerians.
The bolded is straight on and them not being able to walk their eloquent speech that sounds intelligent. I have not followed the activities of the VP much since he was a governor so I won't say anything on him.
But you see Emir SLS, I expected much from him when he was turbaned the first time but I guess he wasn't that intelligent as I expected but just full of controversies.
Now, he has been turbaned the second time, he has not really learnt from his first mistake not to get involved in mischievous politics so now he has chosen a more cunning way to appeal to his audience making it feel that he intends to bring change to their cultural way of life in his home state and in the North. He is talking but his speeches seems to not fall on him to walk the talk but he is directing it to another to follow the talk and walk. In his capacity he should be someone who is the forerunner on such things.

Another thing is that he’s donating his hard earned money. Money that he worked for. That’s why you hardly see him doling out billions. We can’t say same for Seyi who’s either donating money he’s getting as a board member in his fathers company, or just donating loot.

Two very different class of men.

And if by Tinubu (SNR) “Donating years ahead of his political ambition” you mean that he has been subverting the will of the people by forcefully imposing his candidates in strategic positions, then I agree with you wholeheartedly.
There's no proof that PO is donating his hard earned money since after the elections.
