Pity you. You are uselessly biased. I wonder why those statements could engender peace.

You must be one of the devilish jihadists.

And yet, you are the one who is terrorising.

nextpart:
When did Fulani herdsmen start terrorising Nigeria?

It is the muslims alone carrying out acts of terrorism in Nigeria.

So, you next door neighbour Muslims are carrying out acts of terrorism in your Nigeria?

Still sounds like an insurrection to me, unless you are talking about the small group who calmly stood outside eating icecream on the day while some were insurrecting, but that would require the covering of ones eyes in order to only see the icecream eaters and nobody else I would think, and would only be acceptable by those who are determined to believe in conspiracies instead of what we all saw happening live on the day.

basilico:
An insurrection is how you see it?
To me it was some hundreds of thousands who felt their votes had been short changed. Many drove and flew down to DC to protest an election they believed was stolen.
They attended a rally , before the rally was over there were some guys already storming the capitol. You can not get in the capitol. Doors have magnetic locks which can only be opened from the inside , cant even force it open using a truck carrier winch.
The police let the guys in. There are videos of the guys following a line inside the capitol in an orderly manner. There are videos of protesters shouting down some antifa thug breaking a window.
There is an antifa guy inciting protesters (mob physchology) to storm in all the while shooting a video upto the point where a black cop took his time to shoot the neck of a protester trying to enter the senate chambers through a window, with some police guys behind her. The only casualty.

Then media lied about the cop who died saying he was hit with a fire extinguisher, then the DC coroner said he died of cardiac arrest.

My darling and most beloved troll, I'm glad to see you found the money to buy data, I just wish you'd find more a productive worthwhile profitable use for it.

Let this be clear! I am not accusing you of not understanding. That is not an accusatory crime. I am accusing you of being lazy, and only laziness would make you mix up the two so!

With that hopefully clear, let the relationship be meaningless or stop being lazy and take responsibility to let the onus make you go back over our discussions to seek that which you do not understand so you can make the relationship meaningful, because my faith and love for you does not include dying for you Hell, nor does it include brainwashing you since unbrainwashed you is what I admire so much about you in the first place.

I have undying immense faith that if you use that very powerful computer brain in that skull of your mind you will understand. You just need to have faith in you and know the choice is entirely your's.

The 'insurrection' of Jan 6.
Plus we add the Charlottesville fine guy quotes on both sides.
Quote what your side says and mine with regards to both issues. The truth, the lies and the propaganda emanating from those two incidents.
Ready steady go.

"The 'insurrection' of Jan 6"?

I'll just call it the Storming of Capitol Hill by those who did not want the election validated.

I see no propaganda there, though you might want to show me some if you've seen any.

Reminds me of my child days when Four Square Gospel use to come collect us for church on Sunday.

Prayer time was like "Pray for your mummy, pray for your daddy, they are going to hell", and I'd just stand there like fuq no, my mummy and daddy are going to no hell so I do not need to cry my eyes out and roll on the floor in my Sunday best begging some God that they don't! Besides, ma will definitely send me to hell if I rolled on the floor in my Sunday best!

Unfortunately for me, after prayer was offering time, and the offering collectors would stick the bowl in front of non-red eyed 9 year old me who did not roll on the floor praying that mummy and daddy did not burn in hell until I emptied my pocket in it while my friends who rolled on the ground and cried to God not to throw their mummy and daddy in hell will have money to buy sweets after church. Turned out if you joined in the madness you wouldn't stand out and you'd be more likely to not be seen stealing from God. Least to say I never lasted long at Four Square Gospel Church.

I later found Celestial Church who took rolling about on the floor to another level, so I just stood outside looking in since I did not even have the uniform. But even if I did have the uniform, the thought of having to wash my whites would have put me off the floor rolling bit as I found it hard enough keeping my uniform white considering the cost of Omo and the whipping I'd have gotten from ma for my dirty wipes and my stupidity. I can assure you that the anointing that would have made that worthwhile I just haven't come across nor experienced and likely never would.

MaxInDHouse:
Have you ever had a disagreement with either your dad or mom on opinion?
Does that equate you to a Boko Haram member who will pick up weapons to kill without even saying anything to you?

I am currently in disagreement with my mother and it is like we are boko haram, except that we are both far more intelligent to go that far, but if we were not intelligent, we likely would.

But for your information there is no "boko haram member who will pick up weapons to kill without even saying anything to you" in my community. There are mad people who might though, and when I see them coming I simply cross to the other side of the road because Christ has taught me to be wiser than the people of this world.

MaxInDHouse:
How much do you know of those on faceless social media?
How many of them can you vouch for that they won't join in killing their neighbours due to racism and politics?
Well i am telling you now that once a person becomes one of baptized JEHOVAH'S WITNESSES, he/she may get agree and become wrathful out of disagreement but will never ever raise up weapons against anyone! Ephesians 4:26

Max, I live by my faith in my fellow human beings that the majority are not mad people who will just join in killing me for whatever reason. And the few that may happen to be mad and who might want to "raise up weapons and kill" for whatever reason, I am protected from by my faith in God and my trust in the teaching that Christ has given me to protect myself.

See it below as promised to me, and which I have tested and found to be true, because even you know that it is even difficult for many here to utter foul words against buda not to talk of raise up weapons against buda!

I wonder where you get the understanding you have that makes what you have written beliw come forth abundantly from your heart because it very obviously shows itself for what it is.

Dtruthspeaker:
You better Change your Giver because the "understanding" he gives you is very very horrible and a Fake One.

True Understanding maketh thy words beyond reproach and condemnation Correctly Silencing every opposition, Rightly and Validly and you are never able to validly and right fully establish any of your shitty claims, always trying to depart from the issue (I actually do appreciate that I see you struggling and attempting to stay with the issue in focus and to veer away EXCEPT WHEN YOU KNOW YOU HAVE RUN OUT OUT OF A REASONABLE AND VALID ANSWER, WHICH DOES NOT HAPPEN WHEN TRUE UNDERSTANDING IS RECEIVED!)

Unless you were born tomorrow you'd know Nigeria was not at peace long before Buhari.

And spreading lies do nothing to Increase peace but do the opposite by creating hatred and division and conflict.

MaxInDHouse:
Disagreement differs from picking up weapons to exterminate opposition. One may be opposed to another's opinion but picking up weapons to resolve disagreement is what we are saying here.

Here, our words are weapons that we raise very easily against one another and which can be equally if not more deadly than guns and cutlasses.

MaxInDHouse:
Well i belong to a global family of peace loving worshipers where members have vowed never to raise weapons against anyone no matter what happens.
What about you?

I belong to communities of human beings, all of whom I try as hard as possible to be peaceful with.

Nairaland is one such community that I belong to, which has diverse people in it like Max the JW, my Lordreed the atheist, various Muslims, some Satanist, and believers and unbelievers alike with whom I try really hard to be peaceful with every day.

shadeyinka:
But I wasn't totally disagreeing with you. I didn't just take your position which to me is too leftist.

I do recognise that you are not totally disagreeing with me. You should in fact notice that you and I have evolved past that point of not seeing the other person's position and just disagreeing as a matter of course just recently, and are now prepared to at least consider each others position, for which I give thanks and praises and the glory to the Lord God Almighty.

shadeyinka:
Its not as bad as you have put it.
The old testament is Jewish scripture. It will take a miracle for christians and jews to edit the old testament. Not every book in the Rabbis library are regarded as scripture such as the Maccabees but are valuable historical sources.

A lot of editing did go on in the Christenisation of the Tanakh into the Septuagint. Cultural differences alone would have caused some of this along with various other reasons, but the Tanakh itself had gone through codification long before then with unacceptable books not being included, which is editing. And I would think if books found unacceptable could have been edited out, it sure would be very easy to edit out disapproved verses.

I believe that you will be amazed at what you will discover if you researched into this. Look for comparisons between the Tanakh (instead of just the first five books which is what the Torah is) and the Old Testament.

The following are a few suggested places to begin, but dig deeper much please.

Because warring and killing one another is exactly what we do to one another on here in thread after thread where we fail to love one another just because we do not worship under the same roof.

And the [url=https://classic.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Luke+6%3A27-36&version=KJV]answer is here[/url], Max, as written to have been taught to us by Christ.

Dtruthspeaker:
We are not about reading but about Your Inability To UNDERSTAND TRULY" what you read, that is the problem you have.

If you say so dtruth.

I take it you did not study science past that which was compulsory.

My issue with what you've written here is that you have pitted science, as in, the use of the senses to assess phenomena, against religion which you seem to imply is Biblical and must merely be believed,a and this despite Christ teaching "become a scientist". Or do you not understand that "the eye is the lamp of the body" means use your senses to do the science, instead of just ignorantly believing what you read but might not even fully understand?

DavidAO:
Where Bible surpasses science.

There’s been a lot of misconceptions about biblical information. A major reason for this is because most people do not like to read for themselves and also because people do not like to be wrong about what they think life should be. This has tainted religion even as it has tainted every other areas of human endeavors.

Due to the misinterpretation of biblical information and unwillingness to adapt to change, humans have continued to dwell on certain beliefs which are both unrealistic and objective but have lasted through times and civilizations.

Science, like religion is a branch of study created by the Roman/Greek. As the Romans/Greeks took hold of the message of Christ, they influenced it with their beliefs which was basically science. The result of this is a world with clearly unobjective views about life, and absolute misinterpretation of biblical information.

While most actually think science is a branch that has surpassed religion, not many even realize that science itself is like a religion, a way with which humans try to interpret life. In fact, science as we know it to be was created by religion. Most scientific findings of the past were revealed by religious workers. In fact, controversial theories like evolution were first put forward by religious workers after which other people followed suit to develop it to what is belief to be true by some.

The Bible takes a different shape from regularly preached religious doctrines when viewed objectively. It even takes a more revealing stance than all science has been able to discover when viewed from an objectively. The problem is that people do not like to view life objectively and as mentioned before, no one likes to be wrong about what they think life should be.

An important part where the Bible has taken a more realistic stance than science is the concept of time and time flow.

If you ask anyone what’s time? They’d never have a reasonable answer to give. In my journey, I had met so many people with very funny and sometimes outrightly ridiculous view of that time is. So basically, no one actually knows what time is but certain people have been able to explain how time works. Among such people whose works is valued till today is Albert Einstein but even him could not tell what time truly is and how it truly exists. He was only able to tell how time works with his discovery of the relativity of time and since then we have come to understand that all things exists in relativity even from biblical stance.

The Bible supports relativity of time, in fact the Bible talks about the relativity of wisdom, knowledge and understanding and everything other things that affect life. But the Bible most importantly explain what time is and how it flows.

From the equation: J = W X t

We can tell that time is function of energy so we just have to tell which existed first. This subject of time has eluded most scientists because they view this equation from the right hand side; this makes time unknown. But the Bible reveals this equation from the left hand side by letting us know that energy (light) existed before time and In fact time is just a function of that energy (light).

Now this gives a better understanding of what time is than as can be obtained from even quantum mechanics because science like religion and every other aspect of human endeavor views life from below but the Bible shows us things from above. Yet, everyone understands that the better view is from above because it’s more holistic.

Another aspect of time that has confused humans till this day is it’s flow. We intuitively know that know that time flows from the past to the present but but major scientists have had a hard time grasping the reality in efforts to define life as they think it should be. For this reason we’ve had many funny assertions of time flow.

Among the unrealistic notion scientifically peddled is the assertion that time does not flow. This is an unobjective notion because we definitely change and events become past and we grow. In fact, among such peddlers of unrealistic notion are many successful scientists like Einstein, Hawkings and even present day scientists like Carlo Revolli. This is unrealistic because we will expect not to get old at all if time was stagnant and always present.

The major reason for this notion is because it’s hard to match perception with reality. Human perceive time in three dimension but time only exists in two dimensions realistically.

People perceive a to-morrow, a to-say and a yester-day. Science in it’s need to combine all perception of time as real has had to come up with unrealistic postulates like:
1. Future and past do not exist but only Now
2. Now does not exist.
An observant person will realize that these assertions are logically contrasting yet different factions of scientists and philosophers have continued working in both assertions invariably.

What does the Bible says about times flow? The Bible lets us know that there’s just light and darkness (absence of light) or more scientifically energy and absence of energy. Time exists as a movement of light away from darkness. Genesis 1:4

Therefore, there’s only two dimensions of time; a “past”, where the light was and a “present” which is where light is.

We know that the light itself is the life so wherever life is is the present and for this reason every existing day day of life is the present day. The past (yesterday) is where we were but the present is reality is the reality of life. There’s no any other time but an illusory time which is a future time that exists only in the human mind.

According to the Bible there’s just past and now. 1 John 2:8. This is the concept of time that is consistent with reality as can be observed and our journey is from darkness to light; from past to now. Now is said to be Day, thus life is a journey to-day.

I implore everyone interested in learning the truth as can be observed to visit my website https://www.davidaobooks.com and get my book, it’s titled the science of God and life and it’s basically about interpreting the Bible objectively. Those who have read so far have testified to a better understanding of the construct of life and uncommon concept like reverse-time existence and inverse reality.

The book talks about relativity of time in a way better explained than here and even defined light better than can be done in a single blogpost. Life is truly beautiful when you know what’s happening, the reality. Knowledge is the key to the reality and freedom of existence. Learn about the truth, learn about Christ in a way that supersedes the lies and deception of this world.

So how do we stop the wars and killings in the future?

Start small small please Max, for we are but mere human beings and should start with:

How do MaxInDHouse and budaatum stop warring and killing one another in the future?

Because warring and killing one another is exactly what we do to one another on here in thread after thread where we fail to love one another just because we do not worship under the same roof.

Myer:
Yet Christians (even in US) fume when asked to love homosexuals and transgenders? Where is the love of neighbour there?

Some Christians fume (cast stones) Myer, please, just as some Christians commit murder, and steal, and are adulterous, but are you blaming the religion for my imperfection and not my very self for not following the teachings of the religion?

Why would I be fuming on being asked to do that which I should have already learnt from Christ who did not fume at sinners but even sat down and ate with those others considered to be sinners?

Please read below about sinners who cast stones at other sinners.

LordReed:
Thankfully no or else I won't have been able to see or respond to your post. LoL.

Meanwhile Jesus said to gouge out your eye if it causes you to sin and cut off limbs for same reason, to clarify this will be part of living in this Christ teaching ruled world, yes?

Jesus also taught that you must forgive your offending eye and limbs seventy times seven times my Lord, by which time I should expect even the dumbest to have learnt to control their eyes and their hands so it stops offending them, don't you think? After all, if you allow yourself to continue to be offended by your very own eyes and you own hands, it will be you your very own self who would be suffering from the consequences, or is it not?

I'm sure even the dumbest would at some point just learn to tame their eyes and hands in such a circumstance given 7 time 70 times to experience the offence against themself or they just might be better off gouging their eye out and cutting their limb off depending on how bad they are offending themself with them. The choice is entirely their's, I'd think.

Myer:
As Utopian as this is, have you considered the downside?

So what happens when you practise Love your neigbour as yourself and turn the other cheek when slapped cos you're expected to forgive and never carry weapons. What happens when an Islamic nation or China brings war your way? Attacking you on all sides?

First, Jesus taught [url=https://classic.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Matthew+18%3A+21-22&version=KJV]forgive seventy times seven[/url], but before all that is:

15 Moreover if China or an Islamic Nation shall trespass against thee, go and tell him his fault between thee and him alone: if he shall hear thee, thou hast gained thy brother. (In the modern world, we call their ambassador).

16 But if he will not hear thee, then take with thee one or two more to the international bodies, that in the mouth of two or three witnesses every word may be established. (We report them to the United Nations)

17 And if he shall neglect to hear them, tell it unto the church: but if he neglect to hear the church, let him be unto thee as an heathen man and a publican. (We tell the entire world).

18 Verily I say unto you, Whatsoever ye shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever ye shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.

19 Again I say unto you, That if two of you shall agree on earth as touching any thing that they shall ask, it shall be done for them of my Father which is in heaven.

20 For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.

I feel certain that by the time we get to this point "an Islamic nation or China" will decide to not bring you war because the entire world might rise up against them and defeat them in war. Germany is a nation I would bring up as an example of a nation that brought war as you suggest, and we all know what happened when they did.

Myer:
I do believe England in time past tried to live my the Law of Love but eventually ended up producing the Crusaders when they realized some wars could not be won by simply preaching love.

Then I will put it to you that you believe wrong, because you should very well know yourself that the Crusades and war winning is not about the Law of Love.

Basically, you and I can not be at war if we love one another. Its a little word 'love', but you'll find it has very deep and profound meanings and implications.

Dtruthspeaker:
See the proof of the "lack of understanding" I complained about? Did I say "books not made for reading?" Rather that "UNDERSTANDING cometh not by reading? Key word "UNDERSTANDING" not "reading".

But of course, in the Absence of "Understanding", you did not understand even this simple "reading"..

You will hopefully understand my dilemma in engaging with you with written words if you fail to place reading at the very beginning of any attempt to understand what is being said, because not only would you not bother to make yourself to be understood when yiu write words, but neither would you attempt to understand the words one writes.

What sense after all do you expect to be made from your "grandmother, taught her parents "please' and "thank you" and other "simple things"", apart from the fact that when the okete grows it sucks its child's breasts, which is not exactly in context of this thread?

MaxInDHouse:
The verse you quoted says:

And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth. Genesis 1:28

The coloured shows that God wants humans to dominate all other creatures perhaps due to being the only intelligent creatures on the planet. Is that what you're saying now or that humans finds a solution to the problem caused by politics amongst themselves?

"Politics" do not cause problems amongst humans, Max. Politics is a way in which we resolve our differences which we used to resolve through wars and by killing each other in the past.

And no, God never said "dominate all other creatures", but rule over everything just as one must rule over oneself so one does that which is right and the proper thing to always do.

Jesuschristus:
U can't rule the world with a phrase, even with the big Nigeria constitutions we are still having issues

I feel you know that Christ's teachings are way far more than a phrase, and that the Constitution of Christ covers far more than the constitution of any country on earth. But do correct me please if I am wrong about my presumption about you.

A constitution could be perfect but fail through bad implementation if it is not written on the hearts and souls of those living under it. An example is a perfect phrase in a particular constitution that says "thou shalt not kill". You will blame me I think, I disobeyed that perfect phrase in the constitution and killed someone, and not the constition for my issue of killing, I would hope.

LordReed:

Talking is free but agreement is scarce because humans are egoistic and pompous.

And yet, Max and buda have at times agreed and disagreed, so I have hope, and faith in you.

MaxInDHouse:
It's your thread and the topic interesting so let me hear from you, how do you think Christ's teachings could be used to rule?

Below is a start.

budaatum:
The teachings of Christ I would pressume, though correct me if I am wrong, is to fulfil the Will of His Father, which unless you would correct me is, "Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth", which basically sounds like "rule the world" to me.

I mean, after I learn from Jesus Christ to remove the forest in my own eye and to rule myself and develop Spiritual Fruits to rule my family, would I not want to step out my door and perfectly love my neighbours so they may see the Power of God manifested so they too may want to learn to rule themselves and rule their family with Spiritual Fruits?

And if my family and your family all remove the forest in our eyes and learn from Christ to rule ourselves to develop Spiritual Fruits, would the Power of Christ in all of us not be what is abundant in our hearts and what would come out in our character and rule the community we live in?

Kobojunkie, if we all learn here on Nairaland to remove the forest in our eyes and if we all develop Fruits of the Holy Spirit in ourselves as Christ taught us, would Nairaland not be ruled by the Power of Christ that is in us?

I love that they did the audit, it will shut the mouth of people who paraded the election lies, at least the few in the GOP who reason properly.

There are some people who's mouth will continue to parade the conspiracy even after the audit finds nothing. Hopefully they'll be the minority come election time.

Understanding cometh not by reading But is Given by The Lord! James 1:5 and Proverbs generally most particularly 2:6

But will you heed?

Now that is indeed an odd thing to say about a book, would you not agree, or are books not made for reading? Also, you tell lies because the actual truth is that all your very own understanding comes from a book you read, or did it not?

"In the beginning was the Word", is something I read somewhere that you might have never read, because if you had read it you ought to know that the Law of Words must include reading somehow.

As for understanding as it pertains to words and books, do let me know how you get understanding of the words in books without reading. And in this modern world, "reading" includes listening to it read to you.

And note that nothing you've posted here is about the fact that Mary was educated and she educated her Child.

Kobojunkie:
The teachings of Jesus Christ cant be used to rule this world because they are not designed for or meant to be used in such a way, and this Jesus Christ made clear to all His followers.

Kobojunkie:
Jesus Christ's teachings go beyond the two greatest commandments. Picking and choosing only those teachings that appeal to you, throwing out there rest, has been attempted by many rulers throughout history and all attempts have ended up in failures.

Its a big book, Kobojunkie, but hopefully you'd note that not only would buda say every word but every word in other books too.

Humans shall not live by bread alone or they shall be malnourished. Matthew 4:4

Because:

And there are also many other things which Jesus did, the which, if they should be written every one, I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that should be written. John 21:25

And:

"If all the trees on earth were pens and the ocean ˹were ink˺, refilled by seven other oceans, the Words of Allah would not be exhausted. Surely Allah is Almighty, and Wise". Luqman 31:27

Every Word, Kobojunkie, and not the bread alone.
