plaetton: You still dont get it , do you?
This is the problem with cognitive dissonance, it blocks certain pathways to critical thinking.

The bible said that the earth opened up and the saints rose and walked, did it not?
That is clear enough in simple english. I do not need wuru wuru interpretations, sir.

Now, the point which you artfully dodged is still staring you in the face.

Which saints rose from the dead?
Where they christian Saints or Judaist Saints?

Do you know the meaning of saint?

" In Christianity, "saint" has a wide variety of meanings, depending on its usage and the denomination. The original Christian usage referred to any believer who is "in Christ" and in whom Christ dwells, whether in heaven or in earth.[3] In Orthodox and Catholic teachings, all Christians in heaven are considered to be saints, but some are considered to be worthy of higher honor, emulation, or veneration, with official church recognition given to some saints through canonization or glorification."

I remind you that christianity, church and the idea of sainthood started few hundred years after the supposed ascension of Jesus.
From the above, there could not have been dead saints at the time of Jesus' death or resurrection, unless of course, the christian saints had traveled back 400yrs in time to play zombie apocalypse for the Jesus passion drama.

Do you get the gist now, buddy?
This was obviously an error , an embarrasing error that the bible scripture forgers of 4th century AD did think very well about before writing it down.

unistudent1: Thanks for your replies.

1. Please can you clarify, Do you mean that applications submitted at Abuja Teleperformance are decided in Abuja? I thought they would be sent to Sheffield. If they are decided in Abuja, it would be faster I assume but I haven't heard any news of anyone submitting at Abuja Teleperformance.

2. Also, do you mean that people who apply apply in Abuja must go to Lagos for collection?

unistudent1: When you say most people in Abuja, do you mean the people that applied at the Abuja VFS or the people that applied at the Abuja Teleperformance?

unistudent1: I just want to know
1. Has anyone submitted in Abuja since September 15th? I'm worried about how long it will take if I submit there.

2. Do you think I'd have a quicker reply at the Abuja Teleperformance or at the Ikeja VFS?

Thanks for all your replies so far. Very helpful.

unistudent1: I made a mistake on my visa application form. I have signed the declaration but I haven't yet booked an appointment date or paid. Can I create a new application using the same CAS number?? The online form is not allowing me to delete the previous application that I made the mistake in.

Does anyone know the next available date for submission at the Ikeja VFS?

Chioti: Tracking code that has refused to change since. University of Manchester.

SSGUniport: There is nothing to worry about if all the documentation are right and you didn't have any visa refusal history.
All things being equal. You should have it before Friday or Tuesday.

Submitted Last week Wednesday (10th September) @ VFS Abuja And My Visa Application Status Still Reads " Your Visa Application Has Been Forwarded To The British High Commission"...

Chioti: Your application has been approved and visa issued....it actually means the visa has been granted, right? cos am already so excited. And then if my VAC was at Abj, hope the passport will be returned "within 2 working days"

AlfaSeltzer: One thing with David was that he was very fond of other people's wives. You see, Abigail was Nabal's wife before David took her. Bathsheba was the wife of Uriah before David took her. Infact unmarried maidens seem not to interest david. When unmarried Merab was offered to him, he wasn't interested. He even bandoned his previously unmarried first wife, Michal, who became so frustrated that her father gave her in marriage to another man. It was after Micah married another man that David became again interested in her and fought to get her back. So don't tell me that Ahinoam wasn't someone's wife previously because if so, David wouldn't have looked twice at her.

But let us actually read the bible here, if you permit. What did the bible say?

Fact: Saul had only one wife: Ahinoam. 1 Samuel 14:49-50
Fact: Saul had only one concubine: Rizpah. 2 Samuel 3:7
Fact: A wife and a concubine together forms a plural word that is translated as wives. i.e. one's women.
Fact: God gave Saul's women (wives) to David. 2 Samuel 12:8

All these are from the bible. Are you trying to tell us that the bible is wrong and that you are right?

AlfaSeltzer: Where did you get the info that Jonathan was 42 when David was 15? Anyway, that's not the topic of this thread.

I don't think David cared about the ages of the women he slept with. To him, all hole na hole and to do mother and daughter is the fantasy of most men. And those Isrealite kings are very good at realising their fantasies.

malvisguy212: the scripture make it clear that no one
know the day or the hour of christ
return.but the bible dos say that we can
know the time and season surrounding
his comin,you may be thinkin the usual
sayin like... So because disease and immorality are running rampant and
because there are wars and rumors of
war and we have had some few
earthquake that jesus is comin soon ?
Yeah we'dav heard all that before. But
after studying the bible I discover somtin interesting about the end of days. Pleas
read.
my theory about the end of days started
when I read a verse in isaiah 46. It say
that God declare the end form the
beginning. A similar verse was in isaiah48. This lead me to the creation
story in the book of genesis. As I study
the first chapter, I began to wonder, WHY
IT TOOK GOD SIX DAYS TO CREATE THIS
WORLD AND REST ON THE SEVENTH
DAY,WHY WOULD HE TAKE SIX DAYS WHEN HE COULD HAVE CREATED THE
WORLD IN ONE SECOND, IN THE BLINK OF
AN EYE?I started studying the word"day"
and days" I discover some interesting
passages that related to this. Maby God is
indicating to us how much time man would have on earth.this is the point, the
bible especially the old testament is full
of foreshadowing. An event that actually
happen in history, also picture somtin
comin in the future. An example is the
sacrifice of abraham and isaac, that even actually happen,and it was also a picture
of what God will do to his son jesus on
the cross as an offering for the sin of the
world. Now why will God take SIX days
to create the world? Is this a picture of
somtin we need to know? I think it is. In 2peter 3:8, the context was refferin to
the second comin of jesus christ,the bible
say that a one day with they Lord is as a
thousand years and a thousand year is
like a day. Psalm 90. A thousand year in
God sight is like yesterday.so could it be that the six days of creation were yo
indicate to us the time man will spend on
this earth would be about six thousand
years?...the seventh day of rest picturing
the thousand years millennia reign, when
christ come back to set up is kingdom, the time of righteousness and peace.bible
scholar have calculate from the first man
adam to the first comin of christ to be
4000years,if that is the case then we are
could have been living at the end of what
the new testament called THE LAST DAYS.now this is the issue.God deal with
time in the bible, when God measure
time He dose so by seven.....
1.God created the world in seven days,
with the seven day bein for REST.
2according to the old testament law,the jew were commanded to REST every
SEVEN days.
3.the seventh week after the passover,
they celebrated a big feast of REST.
4.the seventh month of were perhaps the
most important when they celebrated three of there biggest feast of REST.
5.every seventh year was the year of
REST for the land.
6.every 49years ,seven times seven, they
celebrated the year of jubilee, which is a
year of REST for the land and liberty for the people.so it made perfect sense to me
that God would set up a seven thousand
year period for man to occupy the earth,
with the last thousand year being a time
of REST when jesus come back to set up
his earthly kingdom, as spoken in revelation20.I was right when I say God
deal with time he dos so by seven.the
second coming of christ is the most
important day in God's calendar , he want
us yo know the timing .
Hose was a prophet in the old testament, in verse 6 of that book , hosea talk about
isreal, God chosen nation, who was
always rejecting God.the nation was goin
to be torn apart, but verse two say" after
two days will he revive us , the third day
he will raise us up and the we shall live in his sight"what dos this mean? When
jesus come isreal reject him as there
messiah , so God scatter the nation of
isreal all over the world. For 1900 years
there is no nation of isreal but God say
after two days[ or 2000yrs] I will revive thee, and you, isreal will live in my sight:
the scatter isreal became a nation in the
year 1948.this is important because God
is reviving the nation of isreal and they
are about to live in his sight when jesus
come back to set up his earthly kingdom , have you ever meet a cannanite ? How
about the amorite? No because these are
isreal enemies and God did not preserve
them, the jew have been preserve
because they are God chosen people and
he must fulfill and keep his promise he made to them but the jew are still
rejecting christ, for how long?after two
days [or 2000years] I will revive thee and
the third day you shall live in my sight.
The second coming event are about to
begin, I see the same foreshadowing in exodus 19:11. God told isreal to clean up
and wait for two days, the third day I'm
comin down in the sight of they nation.
In john 11. Lazarus died a jew, jesus
waited for two days before he raise him
from death, this is a picture of how God is about to turn his back from isreal for the
next two thousand years [or two days]
and start reach out for the rest of the
world through the new testament church
which he did. God dint just throw this
stuff in the bible to wast space ,maby am right , maby God is tryin to tell us
somtin.in matthew17:1 say that jesus
tool peter, james and john up to the
mountain, apart from the rest, did the
thing we want to know happen up there?
Yes.jesus transfigured before them and the are giving a preview of his second
coming glory, now the first word of the
verse was "after six days" why did God
throw this in? To was space? Or is God
tryin to tell us somtin that we need to
know?note:the time from adam to jesus is 4,000years[4days] the time of the
church period is two thousand years
[2days] so could this mean after 6000yrs
[6days] God will revive isreal and fulfill
his promise he made to them? Hmmm am
I reading to much . If am right, BROTHERS WE ARE LIVING IN THE END OF DAYS.
REPENT. THANK YOU.

AlfaSeltzer: So quoting your bible is now kicking against it? Because all I did was quote the scriptures.

Alexyem: calvary greetings to all my brothers and sisters in the lord!!!

Also the issue of not covering head in d church is it biblican.okan eni ni igbagbo eni but. You cant look someladies twice in the church,different thought will be coming your mind which is a great sin,pls help me out.

malvisguy212: unfortunately for you, do you REALY think God will recognise religion? One thing for sure, you must face judgment, either you like it or not.

The bible is a complete book which word is so simple to understand yet it may take a lifetime to understand the TRUTH IN IT.Thank you.

AlfaSeltzer: Here they come. Apologising and contradicting their god.
