Christianity EtcRe: Pastor Bassam Adranly: 'My Ecounter With Jesus That Led Me To Repent' by DavidEsq(m): 5:49pm On Sep 30, 2018

Dude there was nothing called bible until people arranged a canon. So what if Constantine was not a Christian according your standard you cannot escape the fact that Constantine was very instrumental in the formation of the bible you read today. And not only him, many power hungry men through the ages have manipulated all these writings for their own gain. These scriptures you read are a mere fairytale, myths that have been refreshed.
So let's get somewhere first. Was the bible in several manuscripts before it was finally compiled? Where are those manuscripts today? They exist in their very original language. Do u know that there is a bible that has been translated from the original manuscripts and all the adulterated parts cut out?

Read about Constantine and all the councils he called for to start.
Thank u very much my brother. The first question we must ask ourselves is this: was emperor Constantine a Christian according to bible standards?
Firstly he was a ruler of Rome.
Secondly, he was the one who made Christmas to be recognised in Christianity today but was it a Christian based festival?
He was also the one who incorporated the use of the cross into Christianity, when history (which is now at ur doorstep-thanks to Google) tells us that Jesus was hung on a tree (a word which is the direct meaning of stick and not cross) in several languages worldwide.
Now let's analyse these issues bit by bit and see how the rulers of this world have sought to adulterate the bible, after it has been written in the original Hebrew and Greek languages.

I stated these things in my original post. In prophecies, in dreams..take Joseph's, for example.
Has God-enabled prophecies not come to pass? What prophecies are u referring to? Is it prophecies of "men of God"?
What are ur issues with Joseph's situation precisely? If u aren't clear, how wld ur issues be understood?

The Bible was not even a book until some men decided to strengthen their positions as arbiters of the spiritual, they then gathered together various written narratives and called it the Bible the infallible word of god. Really? Omnipotent god can not write his own book? He needed some power hungry humans to construct a book for him? My guy that is the definition of scam.
Can u point out these power hungry humans? Let's analyse the exhibition of their "power hungriness abi hunger.

Okay. Thanks.

But I disagree Esau sold his birthright. All had been predestined by God in his typical partial way. So my point exactly is God doesn't exist. If he does he's partial, selfish and wicked. Who wants that kind of father?
I appreciate ur expressions dear. However, wld u outline the features that show man's predestination by God, God's "partiality", "selfishness" and "wickedness"? In wat ways exactly has he shown these "traits"?
Christianity EtcRe: Pastor Bassam Adranly: 'My Ecounter With Jesus That Led Me To Repent' by DavidEsq(m): 2:37pm On Sep 30, 2018
Melian:
Can any Christian answer these questions for me?

1. Why did God choose to bless Jacob at the expense of his brother Esau? And through deceit at that.

2. Why did God single out Joseph amongst his brothers to become rich and successful? Could it be that Joseph had two heads and his brothers didn't?

3. David was a fornicator and adulterer...yet.

4. Your God said, "I will have mercy upon who I'll have mercy upon". Does this not mean God's goodness is not automatic? He does as he pleases but expects you to be perfect. His "good" deeds are based on his discretion or worst still his mood.

5. He calls us his children. That he loves us. He says, "just believe in me, call me your lord and saviour and you shall have an everlasting life". Indeed.

6. You aren't supposed to be jealous of your neighbors, you should love them. But God calls himself a jealous God. Isn't your God a hypocrite?

7. He wants you to keep praying and clapping sha. Pray pray pray. Be strong in faith. If it's not working for you, it's because your faith isn't strong enough.

8. My own earthly father loves his children equally. Infact, my father his so perfect in his ways that you cannot tell who he loves the most amongst us. But this your God will give to a select few what should be enjoyed by everybody and still brag about it. Yet he calls himself perfection. He says, "if you ask of your earthly father bread, will he give you stone? How much more I". Wicked being and liar. I think Satan took after him and he's just jealous he's beating him to his game.

9. All I see is a very selfish person in the name of God who wants everything for himself. He takes a hundred from you but gives two in return.
When u say God "chose" to bless Jacob as against Esau, how exactly did these blessings come about?
The bible records that Isaac favoured Esau and sough to bless him, but was deceived by Jacob. Also, the bible records that Esau sold his birth right (which is his right to the blessings Isaac was to shower on him). Was it not clear that Esau voluntarily relinquished his rights and blessings? Now does the bible not show us that Jacob suffered the consequences of his deceit? Pls giv me a few hours (I wan cook) so I wld show u the scriptures on the above. But first ponder on my answers.

LordReed:
LoL. If anybody tries this today, they'll be called scam artists. So you are telling me, an omnipotent, omniscient god can not communicate with his creation that he loves, in unequivocal terms and ways, for Pete's sake the book was written by men. Instead he is reduced to speaking through special people who bring this message as from god? LMFAO! Damn this scam is so fucking strong. May be I should just pastor up and fleece people with this nonsense.
Haba Bros! I understand u are saying that since the bible was written by men, it is a book filled with scam or can be used as a scam. Therefore, God wld nee nee speak to us in oda way and means. Am I correct that this I wat u are saying?
Christianity EtcRe: Pastor Bassam Adranly: 'My Ecounter With Jesus That Led Me To Repent' by DavidEsq(m): 12:03pm On Sep 30, 2018
LordReed:
Here's the thing all the so called personal encounters are never full on physical encounters. It's either a dream, an impression or a "vision" (more likely a sort of dream as well).

Why is an omnipotent God incapable of having full on physical contact with the people he supposedly loves? Why is everything left to be subjected to the highly distorting realm of dreams and impressions? I would never trust any person who comes and tells me he learnt how to fly a plane from a dream so why should I trust people who say they encountered the creator of the universe in a dream? And he gave them instructions for all of humanity in that dream? Really?
The answer is simple: God does not appear to us in anyway thru dreams. The book of Hebrews 1:1 & 2 tell us that "Long ago God spoke to our forefathers by means of the prophets on many occasions and in many ways. 2 Now at the end of these days he has spoken to us by means of a Son, whom he appointed heir of all things, and through whom he made the systems of things".
As at the time the book of Hebrews was written, Jesus had returned to heaven and the visions and prophecies of the apostles was already maturing into several letters, which we now know as the letters to the congregations.
So how has God spoken to us thru his son?
The answer is simple: thru the gospel of jesus Christ written by his apostles which include all the letters written to the various congregations.
Dreams and prophecies have long come to an end. We see that in 1 Corinthians 13:8-13

The proliferation of mushroom private schools is the cause. Each school adopts whatever nonsense textbook it wants to without any form of quality control.

Since there is no agency that reviews and recommend what textbooks both public and private school should use, what you get is sickening decadence.

I wont be surprised if there is a textbook up north that glorifies shekau and co.

My brother, there used to be o! Ministry of education, that is. I just don't know how we got here. I think since ministry of education failed to screen or is presumed to have screened the book and approved same for educational consumption, they shld also be included in the defamation suit along with the author (s) of the book or separate suit in negligence.

From ur write up, when satan disobeyed God or became rebellious, God sent him out of Heaven.

If ur statement is not correct, don't u think that statement becomes an erroneous teaching, just as it would be pure teaching, if it were correct?
