I used to go to church until I find out certain truth and I realized most church are scam

Why is Christians not united yet we claim we are serving one God.

Why do we have different bible and doctrine and teachings if you go to different churches yet we say we are christians.

Take a look at the Muslim generally, they can worship in any mosque they find thierselve yet without condemning other mosques

Muslim have one voice but christians do not yet we say we serve one God.
Muslim have one Quran everywere you go but christians has different bible and interpretation. Why is it so?
Who is more united? More organized?

Take a look at what happened to the late Deborah killed in sokoto, has all the leaders of christainity regardless of the churches you go in Nigeria agreed and take a stand on it? The answer is No.

From this day henceforth, I seize to go to church, I will pray in my own house then focus on my Life since Christianity is really not the true religion. I rest my case with pain and anger.

Let see your opinion .

Are Muslims united? No.
They are like 6 sects of Islam out there.

Is drinking alcohol a sin? No
Did Jesus drink alcoholic wine in his lifetime? Yes

Courz:
So, the Apostles who also taught the Christians in their time are equal to Jesus simply because they taught them? So, any leader of a Church teaching his fellow believers is equal to Jesus simply because he is teaching them?

Read MaxinDhouse post again.
Your response is off the mark.

MaxInDHouse:
Wow! I'm not surprised, what could be in the head of a Kumuyi pikin other than mere saw dust?
So with the video you now have the evidence that Jesus wasn't referred to as the head of a secret cult {Matt 12:24} or that he said his true disciples will be accused of being a secret cult? Matt 10:25
Chai see lack of knowledge o!
Jesus commissioned zealous preaching and industrious teaching from house to house! Matt 10:11-13
He taught his disciples to have love among themselves! John 13:34-35; 15:12
He said they shouldn't bother about what critics thought, say or does as long as they're producing the fruit of God's Kingdom! Matthew 10:25-28
He said they're no part of Satan's political system in the world! John 15:19
He taught them never to raise weapons against anyone (including their enemies) Matthew 26:52
All these a group has accomplished globally even among the world's most racist nations they have gotten disciples for Jesus showing love for their neighbours! Mark 12:31
So a video masterminded by those who don't even believe in Jesus talkless thinking of how to preach or teach about his kingdom has brainwashed you to forget everything Jesus said about his unique group, shey?
Walahi talahi Kumuyi no teach you shingbain!

No mind Mr Trio
He's too dumb!

[quote author=AntiChristian post=113457942][/quote]

1. Who is a Prophet as defined in your JW Bible?
2. Mention the criteria for someone to be considered a Prophet according to your Bible.

David was more of a king than a prophet. There are like two main prophets in his time. Samuel who's the main prophet at that time anointed David as king over Israel. Prophet Nathan was sent by Yahweh God a couple of times to David.

In Islam, one who receives inspiration from Allah is a Messenger who is also a prophet. Such inspiration is a message for his people.

In the history of Israel, go and check it anywhere, David was a king. Samuel and Nathan were the prophet of his reign.

He wrote prophetic Psalms inspired by the holy, he can also be called a prophet though. But he was more of a king than a prophet.
Saul the first king also could be considered a prophet cos he prophesied when the holy spirit came on him.

Yet, Islam didn't accuse David of covetousness, murder and adultery (3 Great sins from your 10 commandments). Why can't that be plagiarized too?

What kind of reasoning is that
If you want to know the reason Mohammed didn't plagiarize David's sin, read my first and second post well.

Which verse in the Koran says prophets can't sin? Are they not human? Didn't Mohammed commit sin all through his life?

That Sura was copied from the Bible isn't it?

AntiChristian:
Cause David is a Prophet and Messenger of Allah recognized in Islam.

The real King David in history, who was the second king of Israel, was more of a King than a Prophet. He wrote prophetic Psalms though through the holy spirit.

Mohammed was very skilled in plagiarizing Bible stories. Habaa!

Has the Story of the Disputants reached thee? Behold, they climbed over the wall of the private chamber; When they entered the presence of David, and he was terrified of them, they said: "Fear not: we are two disputants, one of whom has wronged the other: Decide now between us with truth, and treat us not with injustice, but guide us to the even Path. "This man is my brother: He has nine and ninety ewes, and I have (but) one: Yet he says, ‘commit her to my care,’ and is (moreover) harsh to me in speech." (David) said: "He has undoubtedly wronged thee in demanding thy (single) ewe to be added to his (flock of) ewes: truly many are the partners (in business) who wrong each other: Not so do those who believe and work deeds of righteousness, and how few are they?" ... and David gathered that We had tried him: he asked forgiveness of his Lord, fell down, bowing (in prostration), and turned (to Allah in repentance). So We forgave him this (lapse): he enjoyed, indeed, a Near Approach to Us, and a beautiful place of (Final) Return. O David! We did indeed make thee a vicegerent on earth: so judge thou between men in truth (and justice): Nor follow thou the lusts (of thy heart), for they will mislead thee from the Path of Allah: for those who wander astray from the Path of Allah, is a Penalty Grievous, for that they forget the Day of Account. (Yusuf Ali's translation)

NuclearReactor:
Ok let me clear this, when adam sinned, he died as God threatened, but you see because adam(and all humans) are body soul and spirit,the way death manifests in the body is different from how death manifest in the soul and equally different with the spirit, because these 3 arent the same so death cannot manifest in them in the same manner, death manifests in the body through AGING and SEIZURE OF BREATH AND CONCIOUSNESS, so actually what you call "death"(to stop existing) is only the bodily manifestion of death, spirits are immortal by default, so the death of a spirit doesnt mean it seizes to exist, ok why is Satan still alive Didnt he also sin against God just like adam By rebellion since the wages of sin is death why did adam sin and die(stop to exist) while satan is still very much alive

Are you asking questions or your answering my questions

Satan is a spirit being that doesn't even eat to survive. While Adam was just a lifeless body made from clay. He got life when go breath into him.
We humans don't have souls or spirits that function independently.

When we die everything about us die. We return to the ground.

Adam and Eve did return to the ground. It's very erroneous to say their spirit is living somewhere now.
They died!

wirinet:
.

What testable evidence do you expect for an event that happen 6 million years ago? Traveling back in time to take videos?

If traveling back is possible with science, why not travel back? Ain't you desperate for the evidence and not some cooked up stories?

Then which scientist has proposed an alternative theory to the origin of species?

Did/do every scientists accept the theory?
Did/do some believe in God?

Let's see your report on what determines intelligence among different species.

At sciencefocus.com site, they put the brain to body weight ratio of humans, 1:50 but failed to include those of chimps, gorillas, monkeys etc why? I didn't see it elsewhere online and I don't think I can gather those data myself.
What I'm pretty sure is that, brain to weight ratio couldn't be responsible for intellectual abilities of animals. It's uncertain.

It's good you said science and secondary school. You scientific knowledge is limited to elementary general science.
Your Biology is atrocious.

Well studied mech eng at school.

Senseless rant. I last did geography in school over 30 years ago. Besides continents
What do you mean there's evidence for classifying the world's landmass into seven continents? The classification is simply the most widely accepted by geographers and most geologists. Some geologists disagree and classify Europe and Asia as one continent- Eurasia. Others classify New Zealand as a separate continent.

Why didn't they agree on simple classification? If they like they should classify it into 150, it doesn't change the world landmass.

I have asked you for an alternative theory or even hypothesis on the origin of species and also the red shift of distant galaxies and the cosmic microwave background

You don't need to make assumptions on what is beyond you. It happened 6 millions years ago. Evolution can't even be noticed in 10 generations but ona dé cook up fairy tales.

MaxInDHouse:
Soul is immortal, spirit is immortal.
So when Adam dies two things survived him o!

Hmmmmmmmmmmmm, Jesus need to hear this because someone must be the REAL liar {John 8:44} between God who said:
But as for the tree of the knowledge of good and bad, you must not eat from it, for in the day you eat from it you will certainly die.” Gene 2:17

And Satan who said:

At this the serpent said to the woman: “You certainly will not die. Gene 3:4

Lol
NuclearReactor, when Jehovah God was speaking to Adam that he would die, was he referring to Adam's body or the whole of him (body, soul and spirit combined)?

NuclearReactor:
Both the soul and the spirit are immortal, the soul(memory, values, emotions, thought system,etc) is what gives a person a distinct personality. In the case of Samuel, it was his (immortal) spirit that was brought back, but because his soul was also alive he could remember who saul was and even take a stance of displeasure towards saul because of the things he had done. So both soul and spirit are immortal!!

Can soul live independently on it own of it has to stick with the spirit?

What did the medium brought out of the earth, Samuel's spirit or Samuel's soul or both?

AntiChristian:
Another lie from the Jehovah witnesses. Na so your instructor max lied in another thread!

All you Sabi na to package falsehood and present as lie.

Prophet David is a pious man who fasted on alternate days. If he fasts today, he doesn't tomorrow. He fasts again the next day. And continues like that.

We don't believe he was a murderer, coveter and adulterer as the Bible falsely paints him.

A Prophet that receives inspiration from God should be above making such mistakes!

If the Prophets that received inspiration made such big errors then the writers of the Bible would have made bigger errors under inspiration writing your Bible.

So in the end your Bible is false.

How did that Sura get into the Qur'an?

NuclearReactor:
They arent the same, first in 1Thess5:23, bible says that "may God preserve spirit, soul and body blameless..." and in Heb 4:13 bible say Gods word is able to pierce "the dividing asunder of soul and spirit" so they clearly arent the same!!

If the soul is mortal then why did God sternly warn the isrealite against consulting mediums and necromancers(people who could use magic to commune with the dead) if it wasnt possible to commune with the dead then why did God warn against such... Ok if the dead cease to exist then how could The spirit of Prophet Samuel be conjured up from the dead by the witch of endor Read 1Sam 28, "dead" Samuel asked saul why he disturbed him and correctly predicted the future, oya MaxinDHouse come and answer

Now can you compare your above posts and tell me which one is immortal, soul or spirit?

@AntiChristian I'm still awaiting your answer oh.

If Muhammad was the one the Disciples were expecting.
How come he came 600 years after they were dead?

Who was comforting the Disciples in the period Muhammad hadn't come?
How did Muhammad help the Disciples remember all Jesus said when he died 600 years before they came?...who was he then helping to remember?

When u answr this truthfully and critically you will know it couldn't have been ur dear Prophet

Feel you bro

NuclearReactor:
I am not dancing arount anything, u are the one dancing, i am trying to say that what you understand as death, may not be what death truly means, but rather than face that u are busy repeating that death was never Gods plan, guess what we all know dat death wasnt God's original plan, we want to know what death really means. Gotit And oh the reason i specificially mention witnesses is dat their wrong definition of death influenced their errorneous belief that thd soul is not immortal!!

Where in the Bible says the soul is immortal

How many continents did your only scientific manual suggest?

You have checked sites including sciencefocus.com and you found inconveniences

Inconsistencies

. You an absolute ignoramus when it comes to science. Books that leading scientists penned down after decades of research and you that had only read the bible and never opened a book on biology or physics in your life found inconsistencies? That's what they call arrogance in ignorance.

Not every scientists believe in evolution.

Your a fool for believing that I haven't opened physics and biology in my life.
I was first in science class at secondary school.
I got first position in mathematics from JSSS1 to SSS3 mafo

Brain size, brain to body weight ratio don't determine how intelligent an animal is.

Yes. There are 7 continents. I forgot to separate south and north America. My 10 old corrected me. That still doesn't make you less ignorant on science.

Lol.
Just say you never knew it. The continents were already separated and named before you were born.

The irony is you accept the current scientific classification on continents but "found inconsistencies " in all others including physics and biology.

I accept because there's evidence that really the world was classified into seven continents and I see it on maps.
I accept that water boils at 100⁰c at sea level because I've tested it myself. Everyone accepts as well.
But when you start making up story about incidents that happened 6 millions years without testable evidence, I gotta ignore it.


Science has made life easy for all of us today. Thanks to all the scientists, especially those that believe in God

FatherOfJesus:
Make sure to read it because I will force you to discuss what in this article without strawmaning
In a paper published in the Sept. 1 issue of the journal Nature, the Chimpanzee Sequencing and Analysis Consortium, which is supported in part by the National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI), one of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), describes its landmark analysis comparing the genome of the chimp (Pan troglodytes) with that of human (Homo sapiens).
"The sequencing of the chimp genome is a historic achievement that is destined to lead to many more exciting discoveries with implications for human health," said NHGRI Director Francis S. Collins, M.D., Ph.D. "As we build upon the foundation laid by the Human Genome Project, it's become clear that comparing the human genome with the genomes of other organisms is an enormously powerful tool for understanding our own biology."
The chimp sequence draft represents the first non-human primate genome and the fourth mammalian genome described in a major scientific publication. A draft of the human genome sequence was published in February 2001, a draft of the mouse genome sequence was published in December 2002 and a draft of the rat sequence was published in March 2004. The essentially complete human sequence was published in October 2004.
"As our closest living evolutionary relatives, chimpanzees are especially suited to teach us about ourselves," said the study's senior author, Robert Waterston, M.D., Ph.D., chair of the Department of Genome Sciences of the University of Washington School of Medicine in Seattle. "We still do not have in our hands the answer to a most fundamental question: What makes us human? But this genomic comparison dramatically narrows the search for the key biological differences between the species."
The 67 researchers who took part in the Chimp Sequencing and Analysis Consortium share authorship of the Nature paper. Most of the work of sequencing and assembling the chimp genome was done at the Broad Institute of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Harvard University, Cambridge, Mass., and the Washington University School of Medicine in Saint Louis. In addition to those centers, the consortium included researchers from institutions elsewhere in the United States, as well as Israel, Italy, Germany and Spain.
The DNA used to sequence the chimp genome came from the blood of a male chimpanzee named Clint at the Yerkes National Primate Research Center in Atlanta. Clint died last year from heart failure at the relatively young age of 24, but two cell lines from the primate have been preserved at the Coriell Institute for Medical Research in Camden, N.J.
The consortium found that the chimp and human genomes are very similar and encode very similar proteins. The DNA sequence that can be directly compared between the two genomes is almost 99 percent identical. When DNA insertions and deletions are taken into account, humans and chimps still share 96 percent of their sequence. At the protein level, 29 percent of genes code for the same amino sequences in chimps and humans. In fact, the typical human protein has accumulated just one unique change since chimps and humans diverged from a common ancestor about 6 million years ago.
To put this into perspective, the number of genetic differences between humans and chimps is approximately 60 times less than that seen between human and mouse and about 10 times less than between the mouse and rat. On the other hand, the number of genetic differences between a human and a chimp is about 10 times more than between any two humans.
The researchers discovered that a few classes of genes are changing unusually quickly in both humans and chimpanzees compared with other mammals. These classes include genes involved in perception of sound, transmission of nerve signals, production of sperm and cellular transport of electrically charged molecules called ions. Researchers suspect the rapid evolution of these genes may have contributed to the special characteristics of primates, but further studies are needed to explore the possibilities.
The genomic analyses also showed that humans and chimps appear to have accumulated more potentially deleterious mutations in their genomes over the course of evolution than have mice, rats and other rodents. While such mutations can cause diseases that may erode a species' overall fitness, they may have also made primates more adaptable to rapid environmental changes and enabled them to achieve unique evolutionary adaptations, researchers said.
Despite the many similarities found between human and chimp genomes, the researchers emphasized that important differences exist between the two species. About 35 million DNA base pairs differ between the shared portions of the two genomes, each of which, like most mammalian genomes, contains about 3 billion base pairs. In addition, there are another 5 million sites that differ because of an insertion or deletion in one of the lineages, along with a much smaller number of chromosomal rearrangements. Most of these differences lie in what is believed to be DNA of little or no function. However, as many as 3 million of the differences may lie in crucial protein-coding genes or other functional areas of the genome.
"As the sequences of other mammals and primates emerge in the next couple of years, we will be able to determine what DNA sequence changes are specific to the human lineage. The genetic changes that distinguish humans from chimps will likely be a very small fraction of this set," said the study's lead author, Tarjei S. Mikkelsen of the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard. Among the genetic changes that researchers will be looking for are those that may be related to the human-specific features of walking upright on two feet, a greatly enlarged brain and complex language skills.
Although the statistical signals are relatively weak, a few classes of genes appear to be evolving more rapidly in humans than in chimps. The single strongest outlier involves genes that code for transcription factors, which are molecules that regulate the activity of other genes and that play key roles in embryonic development.
A small number of other genes have undergone even more dramatic changes. More than 50 genes present in the human genome are missing or partially deleted from the chimp genome. The corresponding number of gene deletions in the human genome is not yet precisely known. For genes with known functions, potential implications of these changes can already be discerned.
For example, the researchers found that three key genes involved in inflammation appear to be deleted in the chimp genome, possibly explaining some of the known differences between chimps and humans in respect to immune and inflammatory response. On the other hand, humans appear to have lost the function of the caspase-12 gene, which produces an enzyme that may help protect other animals against Alzheimer's disease.
"This represents just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to exploring the genomic roots of our biological differences," said one of the study's co-authors LaDeana W. Hillier of the Genome Sequencing Center at Washington University School of Medicine. "As more is learned about other functional elements of the genome, we anticipate that other important differences outside of the protein-coding genes will emerge."
Armed with the chimp sequence, researchers also scanned the entire human genome for deviations from normal mutation patterns. Such deviations may reveal regions of "selective sweeps," which occur when a mutation arises in a population and is so advantageous that it spreads throughout the population within a few hundred generations and eventually becomes "normal."
The researchers found six regions in the human genome that have strong signatures of selective sweeps over the past 250,000 years. One region contains more than 50 genes, while another contains no known genes and lies in an area that scientists refer to as a "gene desert." Intriguingly, this gene desert may contain elements regulating the expression of a nearby protocadherin gene, which has been implicated in patterning of the nervous system. A seventh region with moderately strong signals contains the FOXP2 and CFTR genes. FOXP2 has been implicated in the acquisition of speech in humans. CFTR, which codes for a protein involved in ion transport and, if mutated, can cause the fatal disease cystic fibrosis, is thought to be the target of positive selection in European populations.
The chimp and human genome sequences, along with those of a wide range of other organisms such as mouse, honey bee, roundworm and yeast, can be accessed through the following public genome browsers: (GenBank) at NIH's National Center for Biotechnology Information (NCBI); the UCSC Genome Browser (www.genome.ucsc.edu) at the University of California at Santa Cruz; the Ensembl Genome Browser (www.ensembl.org) at the Wellcome Trust Sanger Institute and the EMBL-European Bioinformatics Institute; the DNA Data Bank of Japan (www.ddbj.nig.ac.jp); and EMBL-Bank (www.ebi.ac.uk/embl/index.html) at the European Molecular Biology Laboratory's Nucleotide Sequence Database.

First, their research can't explain the difference in the intellectual abilities of man and apes -chimps for example.
Secondly, not every scientists old/modern believe in evolution theory.
Thirdly, similarity in chimp and human DNA and genome is not solid testable evidence that they evolved from the same ancestors.
If that is in any way true, there should be some apes today that are smart and intelligent like humans.

How are you guys able to know something that happen 6 millions years ago?

FatherOfJesus:
That's what evidence says. It doesn't matter if you like it or not.
Can you disprove the evidence?

Intelligence is determined by brain to weight ratio rather than absolute brain size.
https://www.sciencefocus.com/nature/why-arent-animals-with-larger-brains-more-intelligent-than-us/amp/

I checked all the sites including sciencefocus.com , there are still a lot of inconsistencies.

If humans brain to body ratio is 1:50, what are the brain to body ratio of other apes. I didn't see it on the net.
I don't think the brain to body ratio of apes should exceed 1:60-1:80. It can't still explain the reason why there's huge gap between humans intellectual abilities and those of apes.

Not people, Hominids in Africa evolved bi-pedalism (upright stance), opposing thumb among other features for survival among the tall grass of the Savannah. His hands became free to do other tasks apart from walking.

Love your fairy tales. They are ridiculous tbh.

Evolution is a very slow process and is driving by environmental factors. You can never notice evolution within one generation and even within 10 generations. As the environment change, a creature must be able to evolve to cope, else the creature will become extinct.
Evolving wings will not aid our survival. We would need to lose bone mass and start living on trees or mountain tops.

How you guys were able to know what happened millions of years ago is what I'm still wondering about

Are you telling me you are not aware that all humans came from Africa?

It would remain a theory. It can't be proved as facts.

There are how many continents in the world today, 6 or 7?

FatherOfJesus:

That's your believe.

Blasphemy

Lol. Facts!

After having become familiar with the Biblical record, carefully read Surah 38:21-26 again. What are the most striking differences?

Many observations could be made. A few examples are: Muhammad turns Nathan's parable into a historical event. The specific numbers of the 99 sheep and the one sheep were imported from Jesus' parable in Luke 15:3-7. Several details presented in the account of the Qur'an are hardly credible, even if we did not know the Biblical original. The reader of the Qur'an recognizes that David committed some kind of sin, since David has to ask for forgiveness, but is left completely in the dark what sin he had to be forgiven for. The story as written makes little sense if one does not know the Biblical background

Most striking are two omissions. The first is the removal of the Prophet Nathan from the story. The second one is that the sin of David is not named. As before, we ask: What could be the reason for those differences found in the Qur'an when compared to the Biblical record?

The second one is answered easily: Muhammad could not let David be judged explicitly for taking another man's wife, after killing her husband, even though he already had several wives. Why not? Because Muhammad had done this himself. Obviously, such a grave charge needs evidence. Some examples: Muhammad had Kinana tortured and killed, and within a few days marries his beautiful wife Safiyya
Muhammad married Raihana, a celebrated beauty who also had lost her husband at Mohammed's hands.
Zainab was the wife of Zaid, Muhammad's adopted son. One day Muhammad was struck by the beauty of Zainab. Soon after, Zaid divorced Zainab, and Muhammad married her. This caused an absolute scandal at the time. A revelation came to the aid of Muhammad and gave divine sanction (Surah 33:37) to this gross violation of moral standards.

No wonder, Muhammad did not want to mention any details regarding the sin of David! His own sins were too similar, and multiplied many times over in comparison to David. Nor did Muhammad want to mention the serious punishment that David received for his disobedience. In the Qur'an, David only had to prostrate before Allah, and whatever unnamed sin it was, it is forgiven immediately. No consequences to suffer for his transgression. Very convenient!

What about the disappearance of Nathan in Mohammed's version of the story?
David was both prophet and king. Even though God spoke to David directly, and David received much prophetic revelation, he was not the main prophet in his day. There was at least one more important prophet in office during David's reign. Nathan is mentioned at crucial points of David's life, mainly when God rebukes David or denies him his desire (2 Samuel 7:1-14 and 2 Samuel 12:1-25). Nathan again plays an important role in the question of who will become David's successor (1 Kings 1).

Like David, Muhammad understood himself as prophet and as political ruler, but with an absolute authority which no Biblical ruler had ever been given. Muhammad was not willing to allow anyone to come up besides him, who could be seen as a rival to his exclusive authority.

Nathan denies David's wish to build the temple of God (2 Sam. 7), and Nathan rebukes David for his sin of adultery and murder (2 Sam. 12) and announces God's severe judgment on David for his sins.

This was absolutely unimaginable for Muhammad. Nobody should dare to challenge Muhammad. None of his followers and nobody among his opponents should ever get the idea that it would be acceptable to criticize Muhammad, the messenger of God!
Therefore, Nathan had to be removed from the scene.

Own critical thinking? Even questioning Muhammad? No way! The Qur'an states very clearly: "It is not fitting for a Believer, man or woman, when a matter has been decided by Allah and His Messenger to have any option about their decision: if any one disobeys Allah and His Apostle, he is indeed on a clearly wrong Path." (33:36) Again, the Qur'an states that "it is not right for you to annoy the Messenger of Allah" (33:53) and even threatens in the strongest language: Those who annoy Allah and HIS MESSENGER - Allah has cursed them in this World and in the Hereafter, and has prepared for them a humiliating Punishment. (33:57) In Muhammad's understanding, only absolute and uncritical obedience was acceptable.

This lesson Muhammad taught explicitly in the verses just cited, implicitly in the way he changed the stories of the Biblical prophets, and drastically by assassinating those who still dared to challenge him. Based on his life and his teaching, his name clearly does not stand for freedom of speech, or tolerance of differing opinions, or respect for the dignity of those who opposed him.
