Again, I will have to disagree with everything you wrote here. What is Justice? It is equal application of the law to all. So, as long as no human is deprived of the blessings of Christ's sacrifice, then God is just.
Again according to you, who is the injustice commited against? Is it us humans or Christ His son? Please answer this one.
Yes, whatever we sow, that we shall reap also applies to having a repentant heart. If you sow repentance, you will reap forgiveness of sin.
Do you understand it now?

=
1. Repentance does not require a ritual in which someone is killed first.

2. It is of course unjust against Jesus, that is assuming it is true which it is certainly not, it is a myth.

3. The analogy of a phone is bad because it is a not a living thing. We understand that the death referred to was the death of living things.

4. I see that you are determined to be unreasonable, so let us leave these points. The other repugnant aspects of Christian teaching are -

- The doctrine of the Trinity which is blasphemous

- The teaching of eternal hell fire which is barbaric

- The ritual of communion which is negatively pagan in essence, to the extent that it is said to be a representation of eating human flesh and drinking human blood

- The teaching that you must love Jesus more than you love your parents

- The doctrine of inherited sin, which casts blame on the innocent

Let us continue with these, bearing in mind that the worst is the one already discussed: namely the idea that the murder of a man acquits you of your sins.

Truthseeker10:
Since you accept the teachings of Christ, why do humans die and what is the solution to death?

MaxInDHouse:
He will not respond to this!😀

+
In my humble view humans die because matter is mutable, transient and not self existent. The body being matter must thus go through the cycles that all matter goes through. Thats all.

Let me just add that I dont believe the body is the human being. The body is like a covering, a dressing which the human wears in the worlds of matter to be able to work therein. Death therefore is little more than removing a covering, like taking off a shirt.

This is a foolish argument because the bible never claims that animal death was as a result of their sin. And to show how foolish the argument is, I asked you about the death of your phone battery.

+
How is it a foolish revert?

The bible specifically says that the wages of sin is death.

Therefore the question should naturally be asked why animals die, if they have not sinned.

It is a very natural follow up question and simply getting angry and declaring the question foolish does not solve the matter. Later you will call me childish and emotional and teenage. Address the clear inference and the clear issue.

If someone argued that lions are guilty of breaking God's commandment 'Thou shall not kill,' wouldn't you ask if the person was using drugs? That's exactly how I see your linking the death of animals to sin. It's a zero argument.

+
The instruction not to kill refers to murder that is well known. It never extended to killing animals for food for example, did it?

Look, you have to grapple with the simple fact that death was not known of as per scripture until sin came, and thus the question remains whether the sin of man also introduced death to animals.

Or do you specifically posit that animals were already subject to death while man was immortal?

Just be clear, rather than flinging insults.

Your opinion. But in truth how can you repent without the one who paid for your skin forgiving you? How is that possible.

+
What is repentance if not contrition, seeking forgiveness and a change of heart and ways?
How does that require the ritual murder of a man first?

Explain yourself

Beyond using words that don't really mean much like calling Christ's sacrifice a pagan practice, can you point to anything wrong or immortal with God sending His Son to pay for our sins?
It shows love, mercy and justice all at the same time.

As a father, would you give your son a task that is really hard but at the end, it will big him great glory and honour and save the lives of many? Sign me on any day, I will do that.

+
God is said to be perfectly just. It is not justice to make one man pay for the crimes of another man. According to scripture, God is not mocked and whatsoever a man sows the same shall he reap. That is karma and justice. Therefore it is incompatible with justice to perform a ritual whereby one person dies for another.

PHIPEX:
Didn't you read what you signed?

UK papers are reporting something else, who should we believe?

Any link pls?

Kobicove:
Which recent president in Nigeria did not travel extensively during his tenor?

+
I dont think Yaradua and GEJ were quite like that.

SmartyPants:
This is different - this agreement is for the repatriation of Nigerians specifically.

+
Are you sure? Because i looked for that in the wrie up and did not see it. Rather i saw a reference to Rwanda's former role in the same capacity.
Furthermore, is any special agreement needed to deport illegals emanating from Nigeria?

Edit: Confirmed independently you are right. Phew.

Courage is not raping the vulnerable. Courage is taking on the powerful.

If as we all know there was massive corruption in the subsidy system. Who has he nabbed?

Tackle the powerful. That is courage.
It is not courage to beat the weak and poor and hungry. That is, in fact, the height of cowardice.

When true courage has been wanted, he has always backed down like a coward. Against Niger Republic when he was beating the drums of war he backed down. Against Trump when Trump was beating the drums of war, he already his legs open for insertion. He was bullied like a child.

No where has he shown courage as a president. Terrorising the poor is not courage.

You mean Isabel Dos Santos has not yet had all her assets seized?

What? So we are taking over from Rwanda as the dustbin for UK illegal immigrants?

Chai.

Edit: Just confirmed its limited to Nigerians. PHEW.

Greencloud:
Why are his people always clapping?


I mean, I always see them clapping

+
Failure to clap could result in death.

There was a gathering Stalin once had in which the applause went on for an absurdly long time. This was because everyone was afraid to stop clapping since the agents of the state were keenly watching to see who would stop first.

IjeBos:
It's sad you don't even seem to understand these lyrics you posted else you wouldn't have posted them as they refer to you. . . .

+
You can say that again!

tctrills:
I see most of your ideas as not well thought out and not wise but I have always liked you so let me give you some advice.

Do not expect everyone online to agree with you. There not agreeing with you doesn't make them evil or stupid.
Limit your debate to the issues and don't target insults.

You support Iran even though Iran is doing everything to mess up global economy, would I claim that you are defending islamic or Muslim supremacists? No. Would I call you a slave? No.
So let's trade ideas not insults.
Have fun.

+
As per the red, sometimes you could have fooled me, but this is pleasant.

As per the bold, recall you have had choice words for me over the Gaza issue. At some point you even suggested I hated Jews so much i might harm any Jew i came across!

tctrills:
My boy stop being childish, if you have a point to make let's hear it.
Now you claim I am like a psychiatric patient who doesn't recognise his condition.
But to show how you use your brain, you will send a video to a psychiatric patient on nairaland, hoping that a Malcolm X video on nairaland is the fix to psychiatric problems.

If you are here to joke and call me names, let me know.
I come here to discuss and I often discuss with you because our ideas are so different so I use you to test my ideas so I don't hold on to them in isolation.
I am not really interested in doing, ' you are mad, you are foolish, you are a slave,' with you.

+
Oh as for insults you were the champion who started all that, remember?
Anyway I am going back to our Christian theology thread where we can have a sane discussion.

tctrills:
Funny child.
You are the one always thinking like a slave. You look at everything from the prism of slavery. You view yourself as a field slave and see us as house slaves.
You can hardly go about a discussion without bringing up slavery. It's a shame.
I see myself as equal with the white man. I don't believe I should be a rebellious slave like you because I am never a slave in the first place.
For example, Donald Trump posts the Obama's as monkeys, it triggers the slave in you but to me, I only feel that we shouldn't be post our political opponents as animals. It doesn't bring back memories of slavery to me.
We are so different. You think like a rebellious slave, I think like a free born

+
Just as psychiatric patients don't recognise their condition, some don't recognise that they are worshippers of white supremacy and will defend white supremacists till their last breath.

It's a pity.

tctrills:
What is wrong with you? You have this deep obsession with slavery. I truly feel you need help. I don't see any value in listening to a failure like Malcolm X because all his methods and suggestions to emancipate the blacks failed.
Please, next time give me a winner, someone who made the difference not an idiot like Malcolm X.
May be someone like Fella who sang.

Colo-mentality
(If you say you be colonial man)
(You don be slave man before)
(Them don release you now)
(But you never release yourself)
I say you fit never release yourself
Colo-mentality
(E be say you be colonial man)
(You don be slave man before)
(Them don release you now)
(But you never release yourself)

+
How perfectly those lyrics apply to you.

cococandy:
This is such BS, if Iran were going to send sleeper cells they certainly wouldn't announce where they were going to go so we could be ready to stop them. That is not how anyone with retaliation on the minds would act.
Only highly dense individuals like MAGATs would believe that.

This likely came straight from Trumps mouth because he hates California. If Trump attacks California (which is never out past him and his rotten supporters), that’s declaration of war against the country itself and he should be ready for whatever comes of it.

+
Bear in mind that any resulting chaos would be exactly what he might want in order to invoke emergency powers and potentially stall or manipulate mid-terms.

Pootle:
what is interesting about a beer parlor thinking,

Why do you call it that though

budaatum:
Except I am not giving this to a swine, as I am fully aware of the hundreds who read what I have to write and want to give me a crate of well aged wine.

In fact I'm going to go and buy myself a relatively young bottle of red and every sip tell myself, courtesy of Deepsight. We can save the aged for whenever we can drink it together.

Nice!

Xbobtage:
for those who don't understand what is really happening, and why the UK royals and government are now frolicking with tinubu all of a sudden. The Answer is the war in Iran. Tinubu has been pleading for this type of visit since he became president and all he got was a finger before now. But the war in Iran has pushed nigeria high up the importance list. Obviously the brits are of a consensus that gulf countries and their ability to maintain their oil and gas supply will be in jeopardy for the long haul, so to cement their orders from nigeria, they quickly remembered tinubus long time request and here we are.

What this also means is that these people will not allow tinubu to lose the election next year, as they would prefer stability/continuity given the current circumstances. So any high hopes on fair election or euro intervention for fair election is down the drain. Other leaders of other world power nations will come knocking soon as well, to guarantee oil and gas supply, while they all work tirelessly in their countries to become fully independent from hydrocarbon energy sources.

What does this mean for the nigerian populace? More Suffering. Obviously Tinubu is very corrupt man, who's primary interest in governance is to steal as much resources as possible to build that eko atlantic city...nothing else. he has no desire or dreams to see this country succeed. He cannot genuinely fight the corruption that is crippling our military and paramilitary institutions because he himself is VERY VERY CORRUPT.

So expect the continued collapse of the nigerian state, and dehumanization of the nigerian people, and hopelessness in governance to remain. Kidnapping as an industry will keep booming, while religious fanatic terrorism will continue to progress and find in roads south of nigeria, poverty and desperation and abject hopelessness is what is driving the recruitment of young kids in the north, middle belt and now southwest, they honestly left with no option,

You can't help but feel sorry for every nigerian who " Nigeria is happening to", there is no hope in sight guys. God help us all!

+
Interesting analysis and I like you take, but one thing is that this visit must have been in the works long before the Iran war started barely three weeks ago.

OneCandleAway:
He won't defect. He just has to accepts whoever wins.

He should not. A combo between him and Atiku stands the best chance of evicting the Frog from the Rock.
However one fears that the Frog will emerge and hop back on the rock even if all the animals in the Forest vote against it.

cococandy:
Also , if you don’t get on board with the madness, you’re emotional. How dare you question their “logic”. 🤡🤡🤡

That attachment says it all!

Just stay away from those words thanks

I have told you there are certain words forbidden to you. Education is one.

Neither here nor there, House N.

ConDawah:
You also ignored the very fact that Iran has been sponsoring terror groups in these nations before now, but I guess that's OK?

+
Which terror groups and in which countries. Because I don't expect you to mention Hezbollah which does not attack Lebanon or Hamas which is focused in Gaza/ Israel or the Youthis in Yemen given that Yemen is not even among this group

kiddaz:
He's just the head manager of the company they own. Relax guy.

Abi oh. The Royal Niger Company.

SeverusSnape:
Iran is definitely a terrorist nation. Imagine attacking your Muslim neighbours because of Israel and America. Shameless cowards.
If they had that Nuclear warhead, they would have used it.

+
Why do you ignore the fact that these countries harbor American bases from where attacks are launched on Iran?

simpleseyi:

Only your people kick their elders. Look at well trained ex-Prime Minister Theresa May born of noble parents.

Kissing the hand is ok but bowing that low is inappropriate for a Head of State. It is bad protocol.

SixSeven:
No it is not. I am pro African and not Tinubu's fan but a kiss on the hand is gentlemanly. However where I agree with you is where did we learn this from? He can't try it with some people's wives so culture itself is not one single line. The French president is known for his kisses that has almost got him to trouble. Is it an African culture? No. Is it slave mentality? I wouldn't agree with you on that.

Kissing hands is a symbolic British royal protocol where new Prime Ministers and senior officials greet the monarch, typically involving a light touch of lips to the hand. While often done formally by men, it is not mandatory, and the act is more of a traditional gesture of loyalty than a literal, prolonged kiss.

+
My issue with it is not the act of kissing the hand, that is civilized, it is how low he had to bend to do it.

It is bad optics for any Head of State of a Sovereign nation to bow like that.

Flows001:
Abraham was not a JEW, And he was not living in ISRAEL during his time!

Even though Jews are descendants of Abraham, their specific JEWISH history began with JACOB who was named "ISRAEL" by YAHWEH. That was when they started, and the covenant YAHWEH had with JACOB transcended to the JEWS and is still subsisting till date!

You talk about the Cannanites, so where are they today?? Don't even try to come up with that cheap propaganda of them being ancestors of the ARAB occupiers who call themselves "Palestinians". Because even at the time the JEWS were in Egypt, the ARABS were existing in a different place called ARABIA! The Arabs had absolutely no connection to the Cannanites.

The Cannanites, Philistines (Israel's hostile neighbours at the time) e.t.c have all gone extinct.

+
No they haven't.

Anyway we will not get anywhere if we carry on going too far back in history. You probably have the racist belief that Jews are the chosen people and that God gave them the Holy Land.

The reason I mentioned the Canaanites was to show you that the Jews acquired that land in the first place via genocide.

So they do not have any moral high ground in the first place.

Nonetheless it seems you entirely glossed over the population figures I gave you all the way from the 14th century. And the specific change between 1947 and 1948.

Also you said nothing about the horrific treatment of Palestinians in Gaza as well as theft of land in the West Bank which the UN still says is illegal.

Please don't disappoint me by saying that the UN is anti Semitic.
