toba: never will i stay with someone that would destroy my life. are christians allowed to marry more than one wife? are xtians allowed to stay with someone that would destroy their lives? lets think this through.

Bros, I really appreciate your sense of response to the questions you've responded to. May God grease your elbow. Talking about divorce, like someone posted recently, the best antidote is not to mis-marry. During courtship, the true nature of an individual should be exposed enough for the partner to know. Every shortcomings should be addressed at this stage; whatever problem either party can't handle during courtship will grow beyond control in marriage. I guess the problem today is that most people go into marriage believing God for a change of behaviour or character of their spouse. No, God has given us brain so we can give Him rest.

Marriage is for mature people, not necessarily in terms of age. By maturity I mean the ability to make decision and stand by it at all costs. Hence, it takes spiritual maturity, emotional maturity, physical maturity, and mental maturity to get into marriage.
I'm also 25, still a virgin, but building up myself in these four areas of maturity. If there be any divorce, it can be traced to one or two of these key areas of maturity. God didn't promise us a journey free of trouble, but He has given us the strength to walk the walk. My bible says if your strength fail in the day of trouble, it's not that the trouble is beyond your control but because you lack the adequate strength to handle it (Prov. 24:10).

Nobody answered my question oh. Urgent answers needed biko.

Sure, biblically speaking, the new guy has to let the past dwell in the past. Since she's repented and decided to avoid subsequent sins, she's a new creature in Christ, if God didn't condemn her sure no man should.

If only you'll release your SIM card (with all the numbers, messages, and airtime on it) and collect #100 to buy another SIM card.

Donxavier:

The number is on page forty something...

Alright, thanks. The call came in later yesterday.

Pls anyone in the house with the mobile phone number of British High Commission should please forward it to damilarelr@gmail.com. I was refused Entry Clearance just few weeks ago and I already applied for an Administrative Review since I have been able to defer my admission till January. However, I was called with an MTN number yesterday but I was in a noisy environment and in a bid to switch my SIM card to another phone (with more voice clarity), I lost the number. Although I have sent another Administrative Request yesterday but I'm afraid if I'll be called again. Thanks.

ifeness:

Do you have a proof that this most high God exist? A proof not based on the bible please!

1. The difference between artificial and natural things show there's a Maker higher than men.

2. The 7 wonders of the world still remain mysteries to mankind. Especially the Bermuda triangle and Red Sea.

@jay1:
You forget to add the main Man Saint Obi.

I was thinking of Zack Orji.

Kay 17:

If earth took 20 rotations round the Sun, and its rotation froze, how would have the calendar being disorganised?

It was disorganised by virtue of the extra 6 hours of daylight. That was what science accounted for every four years by adding an extra day to February.

oge4real: I will not engage in this debate until I meet someone who can read the original language in which the manuscript of the Bible was written.

We just quote the Bible to suit our arguments, forgetting that some meanings may have been lost in translation.

All those "lost meanings" through the writers of the Bible will be revealed to you by the Author when you're reading it. But you need redemption to access the Author..

ghazzal:
yes. old testament is not relevant here. smh

There were no Christians in the Old Testament. Just a tribe that God delights in, and preserving in order to bring the Messiah through. The Church was birthed after the ascension of Christ.

Kay 17:

How thoughtful! If humanity relies on your approach we would definitely be celebrating ignorance.

Human beings are creature of choices... Celebrate ignorance or not, what I believe is that when I pray He answers.

mkmyers45:

I have just one question? Is it the earth that stopped rotating or the sun?

Please answer

Geographically, it was the earth rotation that was halted because the night took extra hours to come. Biblically speaking, it was the Sun that seized..but either way, science actually proved that an unusual longer day in the Bible disorganised the calendar.

ghazzal:

is the battle over? then it is already a past. the period of a past event can not affect the future...thats not the reason for leap year. science has expalined that the earth revolves round the sun in an orbit in free space.
due to other forces in space, it sometimes miss its orbit and forms another orbit. the time that it misses it orbit must be accounted for. and who says the earth revolves for 365 1/4 days. this is just a reference. the actual word is "about" or in the leap year, how many days is the revolution?

It might be a scientific reference as you call it. But it's a valid reference based in the Word of God. Whatever additional reason that might be responsible for the leap year still answers to the Creator of the universe. The earth is His footstool..let Him toss it to wherever He pleases..and let Science give it a name and theoretical explanation.

ghazzal:

ask sango worshipers if sango answers prayer. pls give a more concrete reason

There you go again, God is nothing to be compared to a god. The crux is that whatever idol people worship works for them..but it won't be soon when you discover the limits of the idols. Only the true God is the unlimited god, but a man must be redeemed of his sins and accept to take the way to Him before he can have access to the Father. For practical examples, visit any bible-based church and see for yourself.

bermuda1: The Bible is really the life and times of the Jews. It was the account of the world written from the point of view of the Jews. They biased it so much and declared themselves the chosen ones.

When I speak to some of these hook line and sinker bible believing christians, they can never give a good a explanation on why according to the bible, God will choose to favour one set of his children against the others, going so far as killing all the first born of the children of Egypt. All of a sudden , this God now changes in the new testament and becomes the God of love and turning the other cheek. Meanhwile they always tell me that God is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow. is this accurate?

The God of the Bible has many names..His names come by way of His acts among the children of men. Our God is a consuming fire, yet..He's the God of love.

demmie1:
bro, their is no circuit in Hebrew. go and check direct translations from JWs.

Come on don't bring that up. JW is just another brand in it's own class, just like Mormonism, Hinduism, and Islam. JW are Christians but they are not Believing Christians or Believers. What kind of Christian doesn't pray? Even idol worshippers do pray.

demmie1: the Bible is as accurate as a myth. science is as accurate as a fact.

Yeah true, Science is full of facts..but the Bible is not myth, because God is not myth, and Science cannot be proving myths.

2good:

I have experienced alot of things that defies human explanation and accept ignorance on such subject matters pending when I have the exact evidence to back up my claims. Religion on the other hand tell you to throw away your brain and accept by faith even if it is the dumbest reasoning there is. That's the difference between me and you. I am open to learning and do alot of research into any thing new to me. But you have practically shut your brain to reason as long as your biblical myth or pastors tells you to do so.

No, you're wrong. That's not the difference between you two. The difference is that you continue to seek for knowledge and do as many research as possible to prove facts, which are temporal..but the other guy, he's given himself to the truth which does not change. But you know what, Science will continue to prove the truth but will never know the truth. 2nd Timothy 3v1 and 7 says in the perilous time, people will give themselves to learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. You're simply fulfilling the word of God.

2good:

Ok if thats the case, then using biblical time and assuming that Joshua lived like 5000 years ago, then we've had an extra 5000*0.25=1250 years extra to take care of the period that Joshua stopped the Sun. Does that still make sense to you? And also when will that 1/4 of a year that was lost, stop being compensated for? Use your brain bro and stop reposting something you were told by your pastor.

That battle day was not 24 hours..but 30 hours. The extra 6 hours had to be summed up every 4 years to make 1 day, usually added to a leap year, hence the 365 1/4 days in a year. If you don't get it now, I can't explain any further.

mkmyers45:

If i was your geography teacher i will go and hang myself....I can't someone can be this thick

Don't hang yourself yet until you find the truth. Do away with facts, Science is just there to explain/prove the acts of God through men as recorded in the Bible.

That battle day was not 24 hours..but 30 hours. The extra 6 hours had to be summed up every 4 years to make 1 day, usually added to a leap year, hence 365 1/4 days in a year. If you don't get it now, I can't explain any further.

mkmyers45:

What news that the Sumerians didn't say already?

What's the latest word event on the tablet (about God and man)?

Kay 17: ^^
What makes u conclude that its from God?

Because when you reconcile yourself to God and ask something from Him according to His words in prayer, He answers. What proof do you need again?

mkmyers45: You must be joking...Sumerian Tablets are older than biblical writting..

I didn't say the Bible is just the oldest book, but the oldest book that contains the latest news. The difference is that one came from men, while the greater one came by God.

mkmyers45: Mr Liar..We can look back in time to billions of light years ago uptil 10 ^ -45 planks time after the big bang and its a fact that NO day is missing and the earth's revolution can be shifted so we can obtain variances but NO day and i repeat NO day is missing..I wonder what your evidence is.

If didn't claim a day is missing or added. What I want you to know is that the 1/4 days that resulted from what happened in Joshua's days was what led to the additional 0.25 days we have today, and which resulted into a day added in a leap year.

muktar mtt: I told u xristanity is not true religion is jst a cover up nd. Y r dey even changin dey text content old nd new cn u imagin,

You're right, Christianity is not a religion. In fact God didn't made mention of it anywhere in the Bible.

2good:

This is the height of ignorance. I cannot stand religious bigots because their level of irrationality and narrow mindedness is just annoying and to the extreme. Give me a scientific paper and the theories that support your claim that the extra 1/4 day is the duration that the sun stood still. For your information, if the earth is 4.54 billion years old geologically, then we would have had an etra 0.25*4.54billion= 1.135billion years.
Then to give you a little benefit of the doubt by assuming that the earth is 6,000 years old based on biblical stories, then it means there have been an additional 0.25*6000=1,500 years so far. Are you saying the earth stood still in the presence of Joshua for 1,500 years(if we use the bible) or 1.135 billion years(geological time) when the oldest man in the world according to the bible is less than 1500 years? Does that make any sense to you at all? You have a brain so please use it to think before you type anything in the public. You make the people with Science and Engineering background in this forum look daft by engaging people like you in a discussion.

Hey Mr. Scientist/Engineer, the earth revolution around the Sun was normal until the day of the battle. There's nothing ignorant in what I wrote. For instance, it's just like how a permanent increase in cost price of a product affects the selling price, the extra cost has to be added. Do you get it?

manmustwac: Trust me even if I say the Bible SUCKS, its full of Jewish fairytales or that Heaven only exists in your imagination. Trust me by this time tomorrow nothing would've happened. Do you know why? Its because God is imaginary but since your blinded by your religious belief you'll never know that.

So the air you breath is imaginary too? The fact that you can't see God or feel Him with your senses doesn't mean He does not exist.

Do you know why we have natural and artificial things today? It's because God exists, so man.

Oyawuni: to me,the bible is not totally accurate.
Reason been that,it was written by persons who had selfish intentions.
So many faacts and truth were removed.
To me,with little faith science is more accurate.

There is only one Truth, and it's undisputable. Science will only give you facts, which can change overnight. Okay science says you are a higher animal who evolved from water (Amoeba), while the Bible says you were created in God's image, tell which one is true?

atrix4g: Just saw dis in d biblee dat satan took jesus to a very great height nd showed him all of d world. Wow earth don flat b dat ooo or na lie

Read your Bible again.

mkmyers45: Neithes does the bible/quran etc

Of course the book of books, the oldest book with the latest news answered it all. Let Science come out with it's practical explanation, then I will show you where the Bible explained it.

mkmyers45: Theoretical nansense..

At least I won. The Bible says it, Science proves it.. Science could not even decipher the composition of the brain..other than it's composed of 80% water...that should make it easier for Science to make..

mkmyers45: and affected egyptian horses magically re-arose and started pulling chariots..

Do you have an idea that some Egyptians were copying what the Israelites were doing despite the fact they don't know the reasons for doing it? More so, chariots of war are not kept in the Egyptian human community (but at the border) in order to avoid issues like this. Just like you don't see army barracks in a well planned city.
