ebuka10box:Don't go to school and educate yourself, be there wailing and believing bubu is illiterate! |
jesusjnr:Looks who talking, lol! |
Is this man stupid or what!? I guess we should not bother electing Osinbajo as President then since he is not God! |
The Older Traditions of the Gospel of John On closer observation, however, there is discernible in this gospel a substratum which points to an older tradition. Not only has it, alone of all the gospels, preserved the one possible date of the crucifixion of Jesus, the 13th of Nisan (xviii. 28); but the remark of Caiaphas the high priest, expressing fear of the Romans as the motive of his action against Jesus (xi. 48-50; xviii. 14) as well as Pilate's act (xix. 1), seems to be part of the older tradition. In fact, the historic chapters in the latter part of the gospel, which represent Jesus with all the pathos of human suffering, differ altogether in character from those, in the earlier part, that represent the superhuman Jesus. The oft-repeated formula, "that the saying might be fulfilled," which occurs in the latter part only (xii. 38, xiii. 18, xv. 25, xvii. 12, xviii. 9, xix. 24, 36), as throughout the entire first gospel, also betrays an older source. A greater familiarity with Jewish rites (vii. 7), with Jewish personalities (see Nicodemus), and with the geography of Palestine (ii. 1, iii. 23, iv. 5, v. 2, xii. 21, xix. 13) is shown than in the other gospels—another indication of an older tradition (see Güdemann in "Monatsschrift," 1893, pp. 249-257, 297-303, 345-356). There are, besides, genuine popular legends which can scarcely be the invention of an Alexandrian metaphysician (comp. ii. 1-11; v. 2-12). The last chapter certainly emanated from another source. Possibly the original gospel bore the name of John, to whom frequent allusion is made as "the disciple whom Jesus loved" (xiii. 23; xix. 26, 27; xx. 2; xxi. 7, 20), and a late compiler elaborated it into a gospel of Christian love and Jew hatred.Güdemann thinks that the whole book was written by a born Jew. |
Emusan:I posted it in a thread where op is promoting hatred of his neighbours. That however bothers you not but my post does. The truth, they say, frees. The Gospel of John is the most historically unreliable Gospel and indeed is my favorite. Unravelling the truths therein is like Jesus spitting on mud and rubbing it in one's eye. I trust that you will use your own brain and see no reason to hide information from you. |
Emusan:Of course I have. It's my favorite gospel! |
The gospel of John is the work of a Christian of the second century, who endeavors to construe a history of Jesus upon the basis of a belief in his supernatural existence. To him Jesus is no longer the expected Messiah of the Jews, but a cosmic being (viii. 23, 58), one with God his Father (x. 30; xiv. 10), through whom alone life, salvation, and resurrection are obtained (xiv. 6), while on the other hand the Jews were from the beginning his implacable enemies, with whom he had nothing in common (vii. 1, 13; viii. 41-47, 59; x. 8, 10, 31; et al.). All his discourses reiterate the same idea: God's fatherhood is understood only through the recognition of Jesus as His son (vi. 29, 46; xiv. 2; xv. 8-10, 26; et al.). The teaching of Jesus is summed up in the words, "A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another" (xiii. 34); and yet this teaching of love is combined with the most intense hatred of the kinsmen of Jesus. All the miracles performed by Jesus assume in John a symbolical character (vi. 26, and frequently). The Temple (ii. 21), the manna (vi. 32-59), the water libation on Sukkot (vii. 37), the light of Ḥanukkah (viii. 12, x. 22), the vine (xv. 1-17), "the way" (xiv. 6)—all these are turned into symbols of the Christ. In the preface, in place of the genealogies in Luke and Matthew, a heavenly pedigree is given him (i. 1-18), written by one who desired to represent his advent as a new Creation. |
highpriestess:I know nothing of the sort. You are free to educate me though. |
highpriestess:Lord, why did you create ignorant people like this? Seems Chuka was ignorant of this when he rode Labour into the House. |
Its a pity he left the Labour Party. He might be kicked out of Parliament too come the next elections. |
You don't have any "plans to relocate to Rwanda", it seems. What you have is a dream to relocate to Rwanda with no info whatsoever about Rwanda. I in fact wonder if you know where Rwanda is on a map. Plans would include "worth", "take/cost (visa, flight, and other bills to foot the bill)", "opportunities for a graduate (B.Ed)" and a "beginner in programming", which you ought to research using the facility you used to ask the questions you've asked here. Please do your homework and let us know what you find. You just might inspire me to start dreaming of relocating to Rwanda with you. |
GLYCOLYSISS:Mary was filled with the Holy Spirit. Luke 1:26-38

It is an error to think clothes make one a Muslim or would get one into heaven. If it did, men would cover themselves in a white piece of cloth. The hijab and niqab are outward shows of piety that mean nothing if that piety does not penetrate deeper past the skin and into the heart.

jesusjnr:That miracle has not yet happened since the person it's meant to happen to is not allowing it to. There's hope for you though. |
CeterisXVII:Expensive schools in Nigeria

LordReed:Such prophecies were made in the links below. https://www.nairaland.com/5035675/end-atheism-nigh#75927461 https://www.nairaland.com/5203261/prophecy-end-atheism-still-very#78638168 |
Tweet below was 2 days ago. A day later Antoine was dead.

Michellekabod2:How the miracle is meant to come about is not part of the wager. The day will come and buda will just exist no more, but if buda exists jnr would stop existing. Thankfully, he does not know my password or where I live so can't exactly influence buda's existence or not. |
Maximus69:And everyone else. |
Maximus69:Some may chose to believe, disbelieve, understand, comprehend, all of which are personal decisions regarding the book. And stop being sneaky max! You were abused for a reason. If you had done well you would have been blessed instead. |
So its government who will dictate how much I charge for my daughter? Did they feed her and pay her school fees? |
So, being stuck in a lift is now "death"? He then explained that there had been an electrical power problem in the Vatican and that he had been stuck in the elevator until freed by Vatican fire officers. |
Our courts are hopefully not ignorant enough to entertain this police nonsense! Police, however, have now instituted a four-count charge of treasonable felony, terrorism, cultism, and the disturbance of public peace on the journalist at the Federal High Court in Calabar. |
Good one. Those who do well are rewarded. |
Oktane:It was not a gaffe but was done with the specific intention of creating ignorant people. We cannot not see if our eyes do not work. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jvK9fiA6uPY |
CeterisXVII:This is indeed how we will judge its value. |
TruthinAction:Why must the less priviledged receive quality education if they cannot pay for it? Does it fall from heaven on everyone like rain? |
wickedtuna:One saves oneself then worries about others when fire is burning. |
wickedtuna:I'm certain your "great achievements" will be to your service and that you are human. |
