OkCornel:
You have missed the point entirely.

I guess there's no reason depending on God's help if man can figure out all the answers by the strength of his own understanding.

OkCornel:
Simple scenario is making a choice in multiple choice questions in an examination.

Where you have 5 options to choose from, but two options appear correct with all the information and analysis done from your end.

This is the simplest scenario I'll come up with.

OLAADEGBU:
To the best of my knowledge, you're an unbeliever, except you repent and believe the gospel truth.

OkCornel:
Buda, how can you make a decision in a situation where you have little to no information, but you still have to make a right decision?

OkCornel:
Buda, I need to be a bit clear. Where's the covering one eye bit coming up from?

And please a bit more clarity on what you meant concerning "but that does not equate to license the man as the Lord". Because I don't see where I've put man and the Lord on the same level in terms of understanding and abilities.

Thanks.

1Sharon:
Which answer did you give?? You bloody Christians contradict each other. Your brother in Christ here said something and you are saying something else

OkCornel:
That is why the Spirit of God is needed to give one understanding of the word. There's a limit to which human capacity can go.

Why cover one eye if your human capacity is limited?

OkCornel:
You recall what Job said about " there's a Spirit in man, and the inspiration of the Almighty giveth understanding".

OkCornel:
You also recall this scripture that states "The Spirit of a man is the candle of the Lord, searching the innermost part of his being"

CAPSLOCKED:
I ONLY REACTED TO THE NEWS, NOT THAT I CARE ABOUT YOUR IMAGINATIONS.

OLAADEGBU:
This thread is for believers, if you don't mind.

Galactichorde, here is a graph from the US bureau of labour statistics showing how low the unemployment level is under Trump compared to the same period during the Obama years. Unemployment is low because more people are getting jobs under Trump than did under Obama

Thank you budaatum for being honest and setting the record straight

OLAADEGBU:
Who Were The Nephilim?

obixcel:
O boy! with those pictures you just blew those sad fellows out of the water. Indeed Obama was like a god to them, the infallible, can-do-no-wrong kind of a guy

Anduku:
I can't argue with this kind of wilful self deceit. I will rather call on your fellow liberals in the forum to help us set the records straight if they are truthful enough. Kophschmerzen, Abbeybailey, budaatum, wirinet, happney65, theshopkeeper, your friend here says the New York times are conservatives and I say no, they are liberals. Can you please tell us which of us is right? please

LordReed:
Assuming Abduls.

OkCornel:
It's more like also asking where God gave man the ability to tackle issues logically as well.

"Sometimes we can use either one, because the problem is so simple it doesn't much matter how we solve it."

Anduku:
Well documented Budaatum, well documented

LordReed:
Yes dummy you should have just said you have no evidence instead of attempting to dribble your own shadow. I was very clear about the type of evidence I was after but because you are steeped in self deceit you attempt to confuse yourself with loquacious dumbassery.

You are too stùpid to see you have created a fable that you have generated a frenzy to believe. Next time you want to cross the road close your eyes and believe in spirits to guide you as you cross. Dundee.

budaatum:
His argument is, assume something, now assume that something is something that is something.

It must be how he gets his daily bread my Lord, or he's assuming he gets something in return.

What Abdul, is the reward of all of your assumings?

LordReed:
LoL. Dear buda you understand it even better.

Anduku:
Please don't even make me go into obamacare .
One of Obama's most popular lies that has received four Pinocchio's on all fact checking sites is, " if you like your healthcare plan, you can keep it" it was a lie as I am sure you probably know already. Don't go there budaatum, this is a lie that is well documented

LordReed:
You argument conclusion is just assume something, now assume that something is god therefore god exists. Not a very reasonable conclusion.

Anduku:
Which of them? She's flip flopped so much on the issue that I don't know which of her plans you are talking about

Anduku:
This overwhelming majority

https://www.google.com/amp/s/thehill.com/hilltv/what-americas-thinking/428958-poll-voters-want-the-government-to-provide-healthcare-for%3famp

A new poll finds that about only one in 10 registered voters want the equivalent of Medicare for all if it means abolishing private health insurance plans.

Anduku:
What's good about people's private healthcare plans? Hmmm, I wouldn't know, I just wouldn't know why an overwhelming majority of Americans don't want their private plans taken away them. They must all be dumb Trumpamzees who don't know what's good enough for them but you and you lunatic liberal politicians are all knowing and smarter than them all, well done!!

Anduku:
Trump has no policies yet you are all railing about his immigration policies? He has no policies yet you are all railing about his economic policies? He has no policies yet you are all railing against his medical policies? What can I say about people that keep railing about things that don't exist?

GalaticHorde:
honestly, the only democrats i will reason with are the true liberals, i.e the justice democrats not the establishment democrats like Nancy pelosi who aren't much different from republicans, they are as guilty of enabling trump as dug in republicans, the US/isreali alliance will only be made stronger when moral standards applicable to every other relationship is expected of them, even Jews in America don't condone Israel's highhandedness given the hypocrisy implied, but then again, descendants of genocidal Western Europeans who murdered raped and pillaged thier way to a continent that was never theirs can't be expected to empathize with Palestinians fighting the underdog fight against a US enabled Israeli, so boycott, divest and sanction is the right way to go and rashida tlaib is right but who cares? A relationship vaguely beneficial to the US should be protected at all costs, even at the cost of morals because I subscribe to a middle eastern religion that originated in Judea, I am true to myself, I don't "knowingly" subscribe to hypocrisy and as much as possible admit my bias! But that's just me, many ®etards here condemned the apartheid regime of south Africa backed by same US but support the state of Israel who are actually less Christian than the Palestinians whose lands they stole in a blatant show of shameless hypocrisy

budaatum:
Thank you op! This is wonderful. I'll try really hard not to let indiscipline get in the way and take up the challenge.

After my father told me about this book I spent years trolling book sellers on Lagos streets till I found it one day and bought it with money dad sent me weekly shopping with to his delight though we had no food that week!

Book Title: Basket of Flowers

Author: Christoph von Schmid

First encounter: 1975

Little is known about the origin of The Basket of Flowers, except that it is translated from the French by someone known only as J.H. St. A. The value of this excellent volume lies in its content, which is thoroughly God-honoring and scriptural. The story centers on a gardener named James and his young daughter Mary. Their simple, joyful life is interrupted when Mary is accused of theft. During the trial, Mary maintains her innocence and tells the truth, in spite of great pressure. But Mary and her father are convicted as thief and accomplice and begin their sentence for their crime. Throughout their sentence, James encourages Mary with lessons from nature about the gospel of Jesus Christ and continues to prepare her for what is to come. A well-written book and an encouraging tale for all readers.

It is guttenberg downloadable for those who desire to read it.

Abdulgaffar22:
It is illogical to assume that something comes from nothing because it looks magical. If some body tell you that as he was walking along the road, all of a sudden, a very big elephant just fell from space above his head and started chasing many people. Would you sincerely believe this story ? Certainly not ! This simply shows that it is illogical to believe that something just pop into existence from absolutely nothing.

Since it is illogical to assume that something just pop into existence from absolutely nothing, then the ONLY OPTION left to account for something we have presently is to assume that SOMETHING MUST BE ETERNAL.

Abdulgaffar22:
4. But there is no way we can reach Today ( i:e the changes taking place presently in the universe) if Yesterday (i:e all the successive changes that had taken place in the past) is without end.

Abdulgaffar22:
5. Since we have definitely reached Today, then Yesterday must have an end.

Abdulgaffar22:
6. Therefore, if Yesterday really have an end, then follows from point number "3" above, universe is not eternal nor eternally changing.

Abdulgaffar22:
So universe is neither eternal nor eternally changing.

Abdulgaffar22:
But SOMETHING must be eternal . This is because if there is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING in the long past, there is no way we can have something at this present time. And since this very SOMETHING is not universe, then it has to be an entity outside universe. This very entity outside universe is what we depicted as God.
