2 Peter 1:20 "But know this first of all, that no prophecy of Scripture is a matter of one's own interpretation..,"

I'm pretty sure if i put some verses to you,i would get responses like 'the bible shouldn't be taken literally' 'you need the holy spirit to understand that verse' 'a carnal mind can never understand matters of the spirit'..bla..bla..bla. I understand the workings of a Christian mind bro.

Enlighten yourself. Even though I know you won't still understand.

Do not call someone a fool
(Matthew 5:22)--"But I say to you that everyone who is angry with his brother shall be guilty before the court; and whoever says to his brother, 'You good-for-nothing,' shall be guilty before the supreme court; and whoever says, 'You fool,' shall be guilty enough to go into the fiery hell."

Calling someone a fool
(Psalm 14:1)--"The fool has said in his heart, "There is no God." They are corrupt, they have committed abominable deeds; There is no one who does good."
(Matthew 23:17)--"You fools and blind men! Which is more important, the gold or the temple that sanctified the gold?"

When Jesus said in Matthew 5:22 that you should not call anyone a fool, contextually He was speaking of those who were unrighteously angry. That is why Jesus mentions anger in this verse. There is a righteous anger which is not sinful (Eph. 4:26--"Be angry and do not sin . . ." as well as unrighteous anger that is sinful (James 1:20--"for the anger of man does not achieve the righteousness of God". When God is angry with someone, He is always righteous in His anger. Jesus, being God in flesh (John 1:1, 14, 20:28, Col. 2:9), can righteously be angry with people and pronounce upon them the foolishness of their deeds--which He did (Matt. 23:17). Also, undoubtedly, Jesus knew Psalm 14:1 which says, "The fool has said in his heart, 'There is no God' . . . '" Jesus didn't forget the well-known verse, and God is not wrong for calling someone a fool, especially when it is true.

As usual. The bible never means what it says. It is always subject to the interpretation of the reader at a particular time,in a particular place. What else is new?

Yeah typical of a Christian to cherrypick the verse that suits him at a particular time. I also got that verse from your bible too. I guess that doesn't apply to you,only the ones you choose to read. I see through your shenanigans o yea Christian brethren.

The way some people pray makes one wonder..what manner of god would put his people through so much pain just to harken to their prayers? You see them grovelling,gyrating,screaming,climbing all sorts of mountains,parting with their hard earned money,bathing nùde etc. Did i even mention the loooonnnggg days of hunger strike just to get this god to look in their direction,let alone listen to their prayers. Not to talk of answering them...sigh.
There's only one reason god doesn't answer prayers. Because he isn't there,simples!

Still going round in circles. You've got proof? Put it up here. Simple as. No need for your shenanigans. My Google search made it abundantly and unequivocally clear the event never happened,the story is fake and your god isn't great after all.
A simple rejoinder from you will suffice to prove me wrong. But typical of theists with nothing to stand on,i'm not honestly expecting any proof from you or any of your co travellers and i'm not expecting you to be honest about it either and say you don't know (because there's nothing honest about being a Christian). Instead,you'll stick with the default theist defence mechanism..keep skirting around the issue,become hostile and aggressive and where possible,throw in a few ad hominems for good measure. Nothing new here.

As a matter of fact, Christian archaeologists and scientists are online at your beck and call, a simple Google search will help....your school of thought hates creationism and divinity, thats why they will never associate with proofs that beats them black and blue.

Darwinism is a celebrated farce....an excuse for ignorance and hate.

Stop frothing at the mouth and give me a link to support your claim. Or better still,post it here. I've given you incontrovertible proof that the story was only a satirical piece written to make folks like you feel good about your delusions. Now your move. Prove me wrong or...chekmate.

Please permit me to include supposed “wives” who are yet to marry in the sight of God but already have CHILDREN for their supposed “husband”. Like the likes of Psquare and brothers who are very successful but for whatever reasons known to them, have refused to marry their women in the church.

This act is not only wrong in the sight of God but it is just as though you are still living with a concubine. It really baffles me how you can be married before the law and your community but fail to be married before the almighty God.

Like seriously? And who exactly is this person pontificating on how exactly marriages should be conducted? Some people are so arrogant and self entitled it's not even funny.

I think the mud and clay did the job of preserving them till date.....

Ermm..i hate to rain on your parade. But your story is as fake as a three dollar bill. The event never happened so don't get too carried away with your so called 'god is great' mantra.
[b]On 24 October 2014, the web site World News Daily Report (WNDR) published an article claiming that chariot wheels and the bones of horses and men had been discovered at the bottom of the Red Sea, thereby supposedly proving archaeological proof of the Biblical narrative about the escape of the Israelites from the Egyptians. (According to the Book of Exodus, God parted the Red Sea long enough for the Moses-led Israelites to walk across it on dry ground, but closed the waters up again upon the pursuing Egyptian army and drowned them all.)
However, if one is looking for news of an important scientific or historical discovery, World News Daily Report is not the place to look. WNDR is fake news site whose disclaimer notes that the site's articles are satirical and fictitious:

World News Daily Report is a news and political satire web publication, which may or may not use real names, often in semi-real or mostly fictitious ways. All news articles contained within worldnewsdailyreport.com are fiction, and presumably fake news. Any resemblance to the truth is purely coincidental, except for all references to politicians and/or celebrities, in which case they are based on real people, but still based almost entirely in fiction
Despite WNDR's framing of the alleged "discovery" as recent and newly announced, reports of divers finding chariot wheels and the like under the Red Sea are a hoax that has been promulgated for many years now. The WNDR article's use of language such as "this morning" and its claims that a team of "underwater archeologists" in Egypt responsible for the discovery are planning to recover more artifacts from the site reinvigorated interest in the long-discredited rumor, but the details are not only fabricated, they've simply been recycled from past claims and appended with more recent dates.

Prior to the "Red Sea" story, World News Daily Report hoaxed social media users with articles such as "15-Ton Prehistoric Shark Captured Off Coast Of Pakistan,"Newly-Found Document Holds Eyewitness Account of Jesus Performing Miracle," and "200 Million Years Old Dinosaur Egg Hatches in Berlin Museum." True to the site's disclaimer, none of those massively popular stories turned out to be rooted in truth. [/b]

Because as far i'm concerned,they're all the same. But i give credit where it is due,Fayose with all his shortcomings has a humane side and his loyalty is never in doubt.
