lol, I swear u be comedian

Chai! See as this Yahman just take style style tok say my brain is as flat as the flat earth!

nwabekeyi:
save this explanation for your growing kids, that man won’t understand this.

His growing kids will one day in the future come here to read and understand it.

Please bear that in mind.

I never had the pleasure, jr, "envy the sick when they were being given all those attention". My side was the po emptying and the ass washing and the afterbirth disposing and the dead cleansing and the consolation of those the dead had left behind.

Ma was a nurse, see. And the sick in my neighbourhood were poor. And ma had this "open the door to the sick and the poor" policy, and the "we are all spending public holidays at Igbogi Hospital" policy, and nothing puts one off envying the sick than you're 9 and the neighbours are wailing and banging "help me please" at the door at 3am and you're watching people without a dime in pain and dying in front of you or yelling for hours, "get this fuqing thing out of me" at their baby or their cancer.

I guess that was my preparation for rejoicing in the Lord when I went through it myself. I assure you its the sort of thing one only can wish on one's worst enemies, except, even those I do not have so must be thankful in all things even now that I fall down on the streets and poo and pee myself because my legs and my bowel and my bladder do no more hearken unto me.

Isn't the Lord Most Merciful and Infinitely Wise, says I. I could after all be dead and missing all the fun we have here!

jesusjnr:
Lol!

Seems you haven't lost any bit of your spirit.

Well, I'm good and I hope you get good soon.

You know those days, we used to envy the sick when they were being given all those attention, care, especially those goodies, the beverages, friuts, and what not. But then they would be rejecting everything and we'd be like, I wish I was in those sick shoes.

But then when we got sick ourselves, we'd also find ourselves doing the exact same thing.

So we now know better and no longer wish to be in someone's sick shoes.

God bless.

johnydon22:
Perhaps time to bring back personal challenges.

People used to open a thread to call out who they want to debate one on one.

You know you will be my first Johny, though you'd be given way to by my Lord whom I fear! (Or should that have been the other way round my Lord?)

We need to get beyond the language barrier though, since we seem to not currently understand each others words and mine rub you the wrong end, I think. And it would have to be far beyond the sort of dik waging done by the person who called me out in this thread, as not many appear capable of withstand my excessively drooopy tits!

Martinez39:
My bad. Forgive me.

Na. The my bad is mine, apparently, as Johny pointed out.

XxSabrinaxX:
There isn't really "one" main method of playing it. The character Spock from the Star Trek series plays it and fans of the series have set different rules for the game. One even uses an extension of the standard algebraic board layout, employing a "z-cordinate" numbered from 1 to 7, notating the possible board levels on the gameboard.

Here are some other 3D chess rules:

You avoided my question Sab! Do you play 3D Chess?

LordReed:
My goal is to transition to talking about secular motivation (motivation for those recovering from religion) and matters that are completely free of the mention of god or religion.

You must have checked out 7 Habits of Highly Successful People by Stephen R Covey. Not many know he was a Christian, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints to be exact, but not a word of religion or God in his fantastic book on what I'd have called the Biblical Fruits of the Spirit.

I guess its the Zen in me. We worship the God of those we are amongst. Thankfully Christianity calls for the same thing, for inasmuch as I do unto you that I see before me, God who art in heaven whom I see not is done unto and pleased.

Michellekabod2:
I do understand Buda,the where he stands is based on the fact he has not declared he is a Christian,and he does comment in Muslim section....

You can just ask you know. buda is a theist. The knowing sort, the sort who lives by God's Words, and not a mere believer who live on bread alone. As we say over in Islam, "if all the trees and oceans were multiplied seven times they cannot complete the Words God wrote", and". And since by the Word were all things created which includes you and enemies even moreso, I try not to have enemies or I'd have to love far too many people than I possibly could.

You and I ported at the turn of the year, or do you not remember? I note you flipfloped not long after and those "Christians", least some of them, do not exactly worship the bits that say "Do my Will", and "Love the enemies", and so would not have me as you might see here. So you'd find me amongst you Gentiles and less amongst the Jews. Just like Christ, dare I say, who also was not accepted by his own and was found amongst the lepers and the tax collectors and the hellbound pagan Samaritans of whom he said, "Go and do likewise".

johnydon22:
You weren't that active during that time

Hmm. Perhaps I wasn't I guess. Had a break part of that time. Over the years though I find we wax and wane and evolve over time and since the elections things have somewhat died down.

May the Lord God be our guide.

OLAADEGBU:
Not really. You are already dead. Your spirit/soul needs to be resuscitated.

You kill me dead you mean.

Thankfully, I have the Loving Merciful Lord and Messiah Jesus Christ in my life so no weapon degbu fashions against me shall prosper because even though I walk in the valley of the shadow of the death that you ignorantly threaten me with, I, buda, fear no evil, for the Lord is with buda, and the Lord's rod and staff they comfort buda, preparing a table before buda and anointing buda's head with oil so that buda's cup runneth over, and the goodness and mercy of the Almighty Lord follows buda all the days of buda's life: and buda, dwells in the house of the Lord for ever and ever. Amen.

She loves me, yeah, yeah, yeah
She loves me, yeah, yeah, yeah
She loves me, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Op, teaching same gender marriage in enlightened UK where the curriculum insists it be taught is fraught with danger in some communities so I must commend your bravery at teaching it in Muslim Taraba which is in a nation that opposes anything same gender! I bet you'd face opposition in more enlightened Lagos and Abuja too.

Perhaps next time, add "in some countries", and "amongst some people" so it doesn't come across as you promoting it, if only for your own safety.

OLAADEGBU:
(Ecclesiastes 12:14).

God will bring every word of anger, hostility, scorner or action that is done against the preacher of God's word, into judgment.

Lol degbu! You? Preacher of God's Word?

What would God do to those who love not their neighbours degbu, those who make enemies of others and love them not? Or is that not in your own Word of the Lord which you should not only preach but also do?

AfroKnight:
Men today, walk on egg shells - at least those men who care to be politically correct. It’s all so interesting.

This, by the way, is the wages of men's sin. If they had always done that which is right and proper remembering that both male and female are created equally they too would walk on firm ground today.

Michellekabod2:
Am I that bad? I have a soft heart within me why do people think am so hot headed?

You sometimes are that bad mich, especially when you hide the "soft heart within" and display the "hot head" instead.

Thankfully, I am often blind to the "display" and see "within".

AfroKnight:
It is interesting that you would crop out a part of my comment and respond to it.

Note how I've done it again. It is the only portion worth responding to, the rest being annulled by my response.

XxSabrinaxX:
Ever played 3D chess?

No, never. Have you? Teach me.

How dare you miss out atheist buda in this list?


Was buda not the most atheist of all atheist?

Martinez39:
The religious section isn't as interesting as it used to be. Then, for a long while, we had the privilege of seeing this spectacular combination :

ATHEISTS : HopefulLandlord, HardMirrow, Akintom, Otemanuduno, Tozara (I admire this guy a lot), Lepasharon (Sharon6), Catfishbilly, segunojo886, Donffd, johnydon22, Martinez19, CAPSLOCKED, Scepticalpyrrho, frank317, Dalaman, Ranchhodas, hahn, adepeter2027, proudgorgeousga, 1stSonOfLucifer, Seun (Seun was a regular contributor back then), ladyhippolyta88, etc.

I miss those years (2015 - 2017)

OLAADEGBU:
"A scorner loves not one that reproves him: neither will he go to the wise" (Proverbs 15:12).

Hating me will not deter me from preaching the message of love. Jesus loves you and demands that you repent and believe the gospel.

I don't hate you degbu. I just hate that you are deaf and you lie and you think God hates buda as if you sit on the right hand of God judging buda when you ought to be more concerned with God judging you and you refuse to hear the message that God gave you which is love one another.

You really ought to preach and practice the message of love to the forest in your own eyes before concerning yourself with the number of twigs in the eyes of others because when you do, your light will shine before all in such a way that they may see your good works and ask "where you stay" in order to stay with you to the glory of God the Father who is in heaven. For that is how you prove to be a disciple of Christ, degbu, by doing Christ's Will which is "Love one another", and by producing good fruits in accordance with the love of Christ, and not by your constant "Lord Lord" and your "thank you that you are not like tax collector buda", which would end in you weeping and gnashing your teeth when you are rewarded for your constant judging and condemnation of others as if you yourself were God who alone must judge the living and the dead.

Those with God reprove, degbu, and not ignorant blind fools like you who refuse to judge their own self first.

And chess, of course. Which no one here seems interested in.

LordReed:
I'm doing ok. Nah, I don't really like mobile games cos they are kinda too repetitive. Is COD mobile any different?

Currently rocking Warframe and I have Destiny 2 queued up to download on Steam.

They any good? I'm stuck in the dark ages playing City Skyline and Age of Empires!

XxSabrinaxX:
Cc. budaatum, LordReed, Michellekabod2, Martinez39 / Martinez79, HappyPagan

Is it just me or is the religion forum getting boring? No more christian apologists. Just failed prophets, braindead zombies and twisted clowns parading the place nowadays...

Hey, that's not fair! Am I not apologising enough?

OLAADEGBU:
What I've been telling you.

That you will kill me in 3 minutes?

OLAADEGBU:
(Matthew 21:32).

Wickedness has to be repented of before you can be saved. If you made an evil covenant you must repent of that evil covenant and then believe on the Lord Jesus Christ as your Saviour.

Wickedness is not loving your neighbours as you love yourself degbu. Am I therefore to assume that you preach your gospel of hatred and condemnation to yourself as you preach it to others here?

If you do, please get Christ in your life and know that your sins are forgiven.

AfroKnight:
Lmao. That you would equate this to slavery says a lot about your disposition.

Anyway, I do not see women in bondage. All the women around me have never been prevented from achieving anything just because of their gender.

I will have to assume that you never walked a mile in a woman's shoes or you would hesitate to say what you said here.

Not all us fighting against patriarchy are unachievers because of our gender. Some of us fight it despite our own achievements and gender just as we may fight against slavery though we ourselves are free people.

AlexFlemming:
The timeline for Psalms seems odd.

The author must have lived for 960 years and be born just 5 years after the author of Deuteronomy, though I think that's what you should expect from a copy and paster with no brain or Holy Spirit engagement whatsoever.

Charleys:
Yeah that's what we talking about.

Enlighten me. What is it that you are talking about?

OLAADEGBU:
What message of hope do you have to the man who only has 3 minutes to live?

May the Peace and Everlasting Merciful Love of the Lord Jesus Christ the Messiah be granted unto you.

What would you tell him degbu?

If you do not have a spiritual understanding of what is meant by the story of Adam and Eve, you surely don't have your thinking cap on your head. And if you merely believe it, I bet you shudder and tremble just as devils who also believe do.

OLAADEGBU:
(Ecclesiastes 11:9).

Even though God is Love for that is the reason He came down to die for us but if you die in your sins without appropriating His sacrifice on the cross then you will be brought before an fierce looking God on the Day of Judgment.

We are not all righteous like you degbu that is why my Messiah and Lord Jesus Christ who is gentle meek and mild was born, lived and died on a cross for me and now sits on the right hand of God tempering the Lord's wrath and fierceness with his gentle meekness and mildness and everlasting love, constantly interceding on my behalf for my salvation, which is why I, buda, must love others just as Christ love me, because, a new command Christ gave me, degbu, Love one another, for these three things remain of the Lord God Almighty, faith, hope and love, but the greatest of these is love one another as Christ the Messiah loves me, and by this everyone will know if I am a disciples of Christ or not. Because even though I may speak in the tongues of men or of angels and have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge and even if I have a faith that can move mountains and give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship and boast in false righteousness as you do, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong and a clanging cymbal that reasons as a child and knows only in part but gains nothing.

May the Lord God Almighty open your blind eyes degbu, so that you to may see the loving face of the Lord instead of the fierce looking god who is indeed satan that you mistake for God. In Jesus Mighty name I pray.

A new command Christ gives you Ihedinobi3, Love one another, for by this everyone will know that you are Christ's disciples, for these three things remain of the Lord God Almighty, faith, hope and love, but the greatest of these is love one another as Christ the Messiah loves you. Because even though you may speak in the tongues of men or of angels and have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge and even if you have a faith that can move mountains and give all you possess to the poor and give over your body to hardship and boast in your righteousness but do not have love, you are only a resounding gong and a clanging cymbal that reasons as a child and knows only in part but gains nothing and by your fruits will you surely be known.

May the Lord God Almighty give insight and understanding to you Ihedinobi3, in the Mighty Name of Jesus Christ the Lord and Messiah I, buda, pray.
