It will leave when we stand up against it and we can start, or rather, take the next step since the first was reading it, by sharing it.

Just the quality of the investigative work alone is commendable! And we really are a reckonable force!

That Tree at the Centre, don't touch it. That was Instruction and Responsibility too. Eve didn't know that she needed Prayer always to believe that. And when The Serpent came, she had not known how to pray "Lead us not into Temptation, deliver from Evil". She abandoned the Instruction of God to be responsible for seeing that no one touched The Tree at the Centre of the Garden. Resulting from her irresponsibility to pray, she fell to the Serpent and started bleeping on.

Jesus fasted and prayed for 40 days and nights before The Tempter came at The Beginning of His Ministry, His Responsibilities.

See how He was able to overcome?
I think he read it times 3!

So if you worshiped with any group of persons without this been inculcated in your heart as something under must, then you were NEVER a Christian!

Thankfully, we all remain human beings, neighbours to one another and enemies too, meeting everyday to debate the existence of the Lord God Almighty in post after post on thread after thread inculcating the Lord God in hearts.

No, am not the Lord God Almighty, but this is what He has to say:

"O generation of vipers, how can ye, being evil, speak good things? for out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh" (Matthew 12:34).

Out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaketh. The real Jesus of the Bible did not mince words when He condemned the sin of hypocrisy and pride.

Indeed, out of the abundance of the heart are the fruits produced. So, why don't you yourself answer the question Olaa, how can buda, speak good things?

Or are you saying "buda is evil"?

How does patriarchy implies not to love your female neighbors? The same Bible that says love your neighbor also said a woman should not speak in church...don't quote a part of the book only.

Hello Michelle. I believe this is the first you and I would engage in conversation. You are welcome.

First. To do with your "same Bible that says". I got five in my living room and none of them have ever said anything to me. So, unless your Bible says to you, shall we imply you mean, "it is written in the Bible and you have read it there"? I cringe at the anthropomorphization of a book. Next is its deification!

One reads in the Bible that one should not steal too but people still do. Eve, even, we read, disobeyed God and ate the Fruit of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, so what's your point? Can't one disobey the bits one disagrees with in a book?

And why is your own understanding of an almost 2000 year old text written for its time, today, "woman should not speak in church"? Can you not evolve?

Dear budaatum,I humbly seek your opinion on this. You have claimed to be a Christian,and believer of God or Jesus or both. And also,you are a feminist. The two are like a mixture of oil and water. How do you practice Christianity and feminism? Kind regards!

I have not, to the best of my knowledge, claimed to be or practise Christianity, and I definitely do not believe, but even if I did, I not see how "the two are like a mixture of oil and water". Christianity teaches "love your neighbours and your enemies even more", and nowhere asks you to love according to gender, religion, race, age, beliefs, etc. In fact, the more one inclines to enemise, the more burden placed on one to love.

See this thread where Martinez39 insisted, for a while, that I could not be a Muslim Feminist.

Christianity Etc › Re: The Christian Chatbox ( sticky) by budaatum: 5:05pm On Sep 10, 2019

The Biblical authors repeatedly encouraged their readers to search the evidence to investigate the claims of Christianity (1 Thessalonians 5:19-21 and 1 John 4:1) so they could be convinced of the truth of these claims (Romans 14:5, 2 Timothy 1:8-12 and 2 Timothy 3:14). This encouragement is consistent with the notion that the evidence will lead us to a rational conclusion about the nature of Jesus. In fact, Jesus also encouraged his followers to consider the evidence he provided about his deity (John 14:11 and Acts 1:2-3). Christian faith is not blind. Instead, the Christian faith encourages investigation related to Jesus and to the world around us. Christians ought to understand the distinctions between unreasonable, blind and reasonable faith:

Unreasonable Faith
Believing in something IN SPITE of the evidence. We hold an unreasonable faith when we refuse to accept or acknowledge evidence that exists, is easily accessible and clearly refutes what we believe

Blind Faith
Believing in something WITHOUT any evidence. We hold a blind faith when we accept something even though there is no evidence to support our beliefs. We don’t search for ANY evidence that either supports or refutes what we are determined to believe

Reasonable Faith
Believing in something BECAUSE of the evidence. We hold a reasonable faith when we believe in something because it is the most reasonable conclusion from the evidence that exists. The Bible repeatedly makes evidential claims. It offers eyewitness accounts of historical events that can be verified archeologically, prophetically and even scientifically. We, as Christians are called to hold a REASONABLE FAITH that is grounded in this evidence.

Federal Government last month said, a committee has been put in place to facilitate recovery of N614 billion given to 35 states. 35 states benefited from the facility, and each state is expected to pay back the equivalent of N17.5 billion.

This is bound to force some states into austerity, but I say, you better speak up next time your governor is doing Okorocha because after he's done okorochaing, you will pay back whatever he okorochaded away!

A program can only perform what it is given the ability to do by the programmer. It is the owner of the source code that can make, augment, delete, restore or demote a program.

Do you think I've been able to relate (through this analogy) the spirit realm to the physical for the purpose of understanding? I am not speaking of conviction but comprehension?

Read your own answer again Shade. You said, "Every "Christian" can cast out a demon BUT not every Christian know how to cast out a demon from a human being nor have the necessary faith." Essentially meaning, "Christians who do not know how to cast out demons cannot cast out demons." Which is true.

Now consider the atheist's position, to whom a Christian says the demon is in but who fails to cast it out. Does that not prove the Christian is one of those who does not "know how to cast out a demon from a human being nor have the necessary faith", and who themselves should be seeking the favour of the Lord instead of selling that which even they themselves have no faith in?

Personally, I am not surprised at the failure of those who presume that they themselves are the "programmer" and the "owner". The truth is some lack the ability to programme or own themselves.

hold on a second, you believe that it is only women that are been shackled by stereotypes? Wow! If you hold up to this view then I doubt that having an argument with you on this matter is futile and will lead no where....
Keep throwing darts on piggish men and ignoring(or finding excuses) for piggish women....

Remain blessed!

You might want to show where I "ignore or find excuses for piggish women", but while you are searching, no, I do not believe "only women are being shackled by stereotypes". I am Nigerian, "shackled by stereotypes" wherever we are, but you should not expect me to fight for the unshackling of others when I have not unshackled myself.

If men feel shackled let them become masculinists and fight their own battle or join us feminists and fight for equality.

And note. I do not argue. I discuss. Except where pigs are concerned, of course.

Do kindly research on how feminism is practiced and viewed in other countries. Where did you get the definition that feminism is specifically for women?
