Shepherd00:I must confess that I have reread it twice, and referred and linked to it over 20 times already, that is how much value I place in the conversation we had, and in you for having it with me. It is a very important thread Shepherd! Or did you not see where I mentioned the Holy Spirit led you to start it? And I was very honest and sincere in it too, even telling you things I have never mentioned before! Might I ask, have you bothered to read through the entire thread even once? But sorry, I can not deal with your misrepresentation of me claiming I said you should not believe. Nor can I deal with those who do not read what I have written, as you admitted, in response to the questions they themselves have asked. And nor do I play the game of who has the bigger prick, which, rather unfortunately, was the purpose of your thread as it eventually turned out, for despite it's title asking how I, buda, can follow Jesus without first believing, as was the case, which is what I responded to, you seem to be asking about what you or others should believe or not as if I ever claimed I was the authority in my less than half a year of accepting Jesus in my life, though, from the mouth of babies and all, I daresay. I did point out Paul though, who I said did not believe before his journey to Damascus, which you refused to address and which clearly answers the question you posed in that thread. Or did Paul believe before he accepted Jesus as the Lord? Did he not follow Christ? Which is it? And besides, since then, I have been pointing out to you people on here, whom by any measure you measure by, 'believe', not only in Christ, but that they are "righteous" and "saved" too - claims I dare not make about myself - yet you yourself have found yourself in argument with their lack of understanding. Have you not yet considered what went wrong there? I have however addressed my "seeking" and "understanding" and "knowing" in a separate thread if you care. You know I have time for you when you use your brain. But the "insist in being brainless" you, I buda will treat with the disdain that Shepherd deserves because, well, let me not say least I sin. |
kpakpandoN:And some people will be claiming they should not work as if the blessings they see Adeboye enjoying fell down from heaven like manna from the sky! |
One day, a university graduate of Philosophy asked what he knew about [url=https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Niccol%C3%B2_Machiavelli?wprov=sfla1]Machiavelli[/url] responded, "Tupac Shakur na di beast!" And for that reason, and because the title of a [url=https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/As_Above%2C_So_Below_%28film%29?wprov=sfla1]movie[/url] tops Google rankings, “As above; so below. As within; so without. As with the universe; so with the soul.” Hermes Trismegistus |
willibounce1:You want to tell me that mama alata does not pray when she enters plane? They will even ask you to pray with them sef just like they would in a bus! Imagine my reaction when I was an atheist! |
The Bayelsa State Commissioner for Education, Hon. Jonathan R Obuebite Ph.D while handing over office to the one day Commissioner for Education, Cyril said, the idea of organising the competition is borne out of desire to motivate and encourage the students. His words, “we want them to understand act of governance and how daily activities of government are being carried out. As an aside, Emmanuel Olaniyan (born 27 November 1997 and barely over 16 when first elected in 2014-15) was elected in 2015–16 as Young Mayor of the London Borough of Lewisham for the second time based on his online campaigning and digital presence. Throughout the year Emmanuel and the young advisers worked on youth violence, mental health, employment and business opportunities, reflecting the concerns of the community. |
tintingz:"Seen" "in Islam" as "impure" by whom exactly? By the adherents of Islam, or by Allah who is referred to as "Most Intelligent, Most Merciful and Most Wise" and who is said to have created perfect woman with this menstruation that you, and "Islam" as you say, are claiming is "impure"? tintingz:Hmm. You did this with Allah and Islam above and I have responded above. I hope the distinction does not go over your head, and that you'd also desist from it. Where did you get the idea that buda subscribed to "the Christian deity and its dogmas"? Wouldn't it be wiser for you to enquire what "deity and dogmas" I might subscribe to instead of creating false images in your head. (And I say this despite the question mark you tagged on at the end because I know you to be wiser than this and would like you to consider that I also just might have a brain!) This thread might inform you of the deity or part of the dogma I might subscribe to and I am open to questions. |
Ihedinobi3:First, I do not need your permission to go on with anything, nor do you need to "discuss further with" me if you don't want to. To be honest, I am not "discussing with you" either, just that this is a public forum with thousands of people and it's just likely some might wish to hear what I have to say. You might want to be cautious with your "Bible-editing habits" least you be judged by the measure with which you judge others. That said, "Formless" and "void", and "chaos" for that matter, do not in any way mean "ruined". |
Heathen777:Seriously? Who practises slavery in their religion today? |
This is a very clear example of what an enlightened nation does, and we should fight very hard for such acceptance (it is not in any way "tolerance"!), in our nation and amongst us wherever we may be. |
tintingz:I am very clearly not being sarcastic, which is juvenile at its worst. I am in fact, furious at the misrepresentations! And I am now a theist, or shall I say, somewhat of a theist, as in, a person who attempts to understand theology. Some light is shed on me here. |
usermane:This, hopefully, is why you post what you write and I cannot say I do not agree with you, because while the sunnahs may be the knowledge of it's day, we must most definitely not live according to old ways and should allow our knowledge to evolve as it clearly has over time because I bet I can find a sunnah somewhere, which I can twist if I tried hard enough, that would mean, "do not use the internet or phones". But I can also bet that nobody with a brain would throw their phones away or refuse to use the internet because of it. You may want to see my posts on ancient science here. |
Ihedinobi3:Well, my Bible at Genesis 2:1 says "Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them", so I see no reason to assume God destroyed the "heavens" and "the host of them" along with the earth, and that's even if I were to allow that verse to imply "the earth was a complete ruin", as you claim. It does not imply anything of the sort to me! Besides, if God were going to destroy all that God created because of some unruly sinful angels I see no reason why that same God would not have destroyed the Garden of Eden when Adam and Eve sinned. |
usermane:The pain will not kill you. Women will even inform you that it makes them appreciate the giving birth, but that's not why you have pain. The pain is like a restriction. If you did not have pain, you might be giving birth way too early, like at the age of 12 because it will be so easy to do so. The pain at 12 is like you died, and it reduces the more mature you become. But so you wait till you are more mature and have accumulated enough resources and wisdom to nourish a life we give you pain to stop you having a child too early so you appreciate and are able to nourish that new life when it arrives. The Almighty God is most Merciful and Wise, and you humans after all, do not appreciate that which comes easy to you! |
usermane:Well, if you cannot avoid making a mess in the mosque with your menses, which was more likely the case when this law was passed, please don't come and mess up the mosque and disturb the prayers with it! Note that today you are wise enough to use a pad or tampon so we do not place menstruation police at the door to the mosque to turn you away, and if you do come whilst menstruating and if you don't make a mess, we would hardly know you are menstruating. |
usermane:Indeed, "these questions matter because their subjects affect our lives daily", but we do not say "God knows best" as an "euphemism for "It doesn't matter, forget about it"". Rather, "God knows best", is an euphemism for "my knowledge is limited because I am ignorant and I don't fully understand so I will just accept what God says because, God knows best". If these "questions" did not "matter because their subjects affect our lives daily", the Almighty God would not have bothered to inform me how to deal with them! |
usermane:This is not true! Women after birth are not prohibited from salat or fasting for 40 days "because they need a break"! They are prohibited from fasting because fasting will not allow them to provide nourishment for their new born baby, but because people were stupid and did "not know enough to appreciate yet", we tell you it is the "perfect plan of God" so you will comply without argument! Thankfully, you are smarter now, so you would be advised not to fast during salat for the benefit of the nourishment of your new born child! If you disagree that it is the "perfect plan of God", or you think that the 'Almighty God' is is not "all intelligent and most merciful", have a baby and go and fast and then come and inform us of how much milk your mammary glands produce for your baby who will most definitely cry a lot from being hungry and eventually be stunted in growth, if it does not die first, that is! The Almighty God is most definitely most intelligent and most merciful and most wise or many would just be adding insult to their own injury by killing themselves with their own hands and their own ignorance! |
AreaFada2:I know sir. And thank you indeed for educating fools. |
Ihedinobi3:There is a reason why you disagree, and it's because you know very well that it is not true! Did God destroy the perfect universe, or just one tiny bit of it called earth, according to Genesis 2:1? Even that earth God may have destroyed cannot be all of it. I just don't think God can be so wasteful. |
OLAADEGBU:You forgot to include the stupidity of some today that encourages them to drink bleach, and the one that discourages them to bear their cross and to love their neighbours even if they go to a different church to your own as many refuse to do on here! |
Ubenedictus:How can they not see? Is it not that "refined Christianity" that they practice now? Or do they seriously believe they are practising "traditional Christianity"? They see! They just refuse to admit it! |
B2mario:You are one of the wiser ones. Only stupid people boycott. Next time please force them to count you so they don't give your share to their own children. |
dokyOloye:As sarrki very wisely said, if he stole from your grandparents and stole from your parents and He’s stealing from you now, who is clueless? |
AreaFada2:This was not even the equivalent of "kissing a cross". It was ordinary "The Ooni is coming", the equivalent of the trumpet in the video below. But ignorant people are refusing to accept their ignorance and learn! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4eBYUOKQOnE |
This is a very important development! I have the feeling that non-performing loans on banks books probably exceed the current GDP of Nigeria twofold! Or when did you last hear of bankruptcy in Nigeria? They should include non-performing government ministry debt too, so we see where we are! |
wirinet:I can't help but admire wisdom. I'm told it's the only way to get some oneself. |
LordReed:For arguments sake, my Lord, I want to name this Kingdom as an "example of a country whose people love God and have their prayers answered". Even the people who live there are angels! But my fear is that you would assume to know what is meant by "God", and "love God", which you most definitely don't! |
Preciousgirl:Lol! ![]() |
wirinet:Have I said, when I grow up I want to be smart like you? Na, I don't think I have! When I grow up I want to be smart like you! |
DaBogu:You can refuse to work now or did they put chain around your neck? Just resign! Plenty people de out there who would work on public holiday! |
SocialJustice:Please tell them o. They think Nigeria that he would take over belongs to Buhari, yet when the same Buhari rides to inauguration in expensive merc they will shout "na we money im take buy am", remembering it's their Nigeria like if Saraki does take over we will not go and take our country back from him and burn him sef like we burn thief on the streets! |
askibee:The same eye you will use to keep looking at a monkey in the zoo now! After all, if dem confess with their mouth that their country is a zoo, are they not the animals in the zoo? Abeg, throw monkey banana and go do better thing with responsible human beings jor! |
