LagosShia: She should be fired immediately.then she should be sued for discrimination that threatens the peace of Lagos and Nigeria at large.

Failure to act by the authorities is not an option.otherwise this Christian ignorance built on fanaticism and extreme hatred for Muslims would continue.

The hater should be arrested and taken to court.and I hope one of her punishments would be to double the beating 10 times and give her 430 strokes of the cane.then according to the bible in Corinthians,she (the principal) should have her head shaved for not covering her own head.we are not living in a Christian country.

Must you always drag christianity and quotation from the bible in your comments? The post doesn't state the principal is a christian. Besides, no one supports her action which has been roundly condemned. Please, let christianity be and focus on your belief. Thank you.

alpha conde: The book of stephen 3 vs 3-6, 7 - 10 and moses proclaimed to the people The God that delivered us from the ethiopians will defend us in the presence of the ivorians. 4 and after the fifth day after noon before nightfall it came to pass that the nigerians defeated the ivorians. 5 The king of the nigerians one King Jonathan danced naked in Celebration at a place called the eagles square near his palace.6 and the lord blessed them amongst the football race of africa
7.After some time news came from a distance country in the southern part of africa that the malians were approaching the nigerian territory. 8 The nigerians became scared and on the 3rd day after they have received the news 9 the lord appeared to apostle sunday mba and promised him that the malians will fall before them easier than any other battle they had faced in the past.10 Mba believed the lord and again it came to pass, the malians became slaves to the nigerians.

No group has any right to tell the military what to do. The military should be left to decide the best approach affecting them. Some religious leaders like to cause trouble unnecessary.

akthedream: Thanks Bro for letting those dumb ass who uses every opportunity to insult Islam and Muslims to know that u are actually a Christain...But,eerm..Bro you did not include PRIVATE JETS.

Dnt mind d op he is a muslim. chck his previous posts to confirm. Just because of d heat he's denying his religion. he is d one more afraid than d christians he is mocking.

Barywhyte: Just diverting public attention from his Jet

What is wrong with some people? Did he force you to give money for his jet? Besides, he's not the first pastor to own a jet. Mind you, every insult you hauled at any ordained man of God you will answer before God.

alaanu: All these rubbish do not move a Muslim who is knowledgeable about his religion.

It always die a natural death because Islam unlike other religion of the world is not a man made practises which are always modernised to suit man desires. Islam has been perfected by the owner- Allah.I remain years back in the UK, a woman who claimed to be a Muslim scholar started leading a congregation in prayer, where is she today.

I am not even surprised a bit that it is in France where the government is anti-Islam in all ramifications;banned Islam dressing and the likes.

A 5 year old Muslim knows gay or homosexual is forbidden in Islam.

And all haters,rejoicing over this news only shows your hypocrisy and hatred for Islam religion and Muslims. Just do your findings very well, upon all your hatred, [b]Islam still remain the fastest growing religio[/b]n even in the West.

This argument has been put to rest based on true findings. Islam is not growing based on true convertion to islamic faith. Islam is a religion that allows 4 wives to each man, if for instance the man that has 4 wives and each wife is able to bear 8 children, times that by 4, that gives 32 children. These children are for one man alone, and it goes on like that. That's is why the experts have put it that islam is only growing by numbers and not by faith convert. If you doubt me i will come back here with proven fact. It's late now so am off to bed.

fellis: I hope this is a joke. Christians will not tolerate a thing like that, they will start complaining. I have seen something like that happen before.

What joke? It is no joke go about to preach your quran and no one will disturb you, you may not been taken serious. That's the worst you can suffer. But can the same be said of chrisians preaching the bible in islam dominated? the answer is NO.

[quote author=9jii.]Let's assume all d crimes commit by a muslims is his believe his doing it for the sake of Almighty.
How about the rituals killing,tribal bloodshed,burning of people,robbery,kidnaps,killing on daily bases that is in the southern by southerner Christians? is it for the sake of holy ghost?

Many of u here are as twist as these twisted people that thinks they are doing favors to Islam[/quote]Are the crimes committed in the South done in the name of Jesus or in the advancement of Christianity? If you don't have anything meaningful to say just spare the keyboard.

Geewan: Then I heard the LORD say to the other men, "Follow him through the city and kill everyone whose forehead is not marked. Show no mercy; have no pity! Kill them all Ãll old and young, girls and women and little children. But do not touch anyone with the mark. Begin your task right here at the Temple." So they began by killing the seventy leaders. "Defile the Temple!" the LORD commanded. "Fill its courtyards with the bodies of those you kill! Go!" So they went throughout the city and did as they were told." (Ezekiel 9:5-7 NLT).

He said to them, ‘When I sent you out without a purse, bag or sandals, did you lack anything?’ They said, ‘No, not a thing.’ He said to them, ‘But now, the one who has a purse must take it, and likewise a bag. And the one who has no sword must sell his cloak and buy one. For I tell you, this scripture must be fulfilled in me, “And he was counted among the lawless”: and indeed what is written about me is being fulfilled.” They said, ‘Lord, look, here are two swords.’ He replied, ‘It is enough.’ (Luke 22:35-38, NRSV).

And yet they say the Quran supports violence!

You Muslims who only based your faith in science/physical things no nothing and understand nothing concerning spiritual based teachings which Christians root their faith on. You claim to know the bible but you understand nothing, continue to read the bible with your carnal mind will get you even the more confused as you are right now, because you refused to learn the TRUTH you will remain confused except God Almighty deliver your ignorance which you have continue to exhibit with your lame argument.

Since you claim to know the bible so well, why didn't you tell us the conclusion of the narrative between Jesus and his disciples as recorded in the following passages.? Luke 22:51 , Matthew 26:52 , John 18:11.


Matthew 26:52 ('"Put your sword back in its place," Jesus said to him, "for all who draw the sword will die by the sword.'), Luke 22:51 ('But Jesus answered, "No more of this!" And he touched the man's ear and healed him.'), and John 18:11 ('Jesus commanded Peter, "Put your sword away! Shall I not drink the cup the Father has given me?"').

Jesus was not really telling them to buy or use swords. He was simply using the metaphor of a sword to describe the current crisis. When the disciples took his words literally ('See, Lord, here are two swords'), Jesus simply drops the subject by saying 'That is enough'.

The group comprised Jesus and the eleven remaining disciples, and possibly some others. Two swords are not enough to defend a group or fight enemies. Why then did Jesus say 'That is enough'?
If Jesus was telling them to have a sword handy (for self-defense) as they went into the world preaching the gospel, why then did Jesus said "for all who draw the sword will die by the sword.'? Also why do Acts and the epistles consistently show the disciples accepting persecution peacefully? Acts 4:25-31, 8:1-3, 9:1-2, 12:1-5
As we can see, Jesus never preach violence or his disciples preach violence even during their extreme persecution.


In answer to your OT quote (Ezekiel 9:5-7 NLT
There is a big difference between the violence in the Old Testament and Islamic Jihad. First, the war prescribed by God in the Old Testament was intended for a particular time and limited to a particular people group. There was no pattern set to continue this practice beyond what God had commanded.

In contrast, the Koran actually prescribes and condones military jihad in the promotion of Islam. At no time in the Bible do we see God commanding His people to kill unbelievers in the promotion of biblical faith. Second, it is beyond dispute that, in its earliest years, Islam was promoted by the sword and has remain so til date. It is exactly the opposite for early Christianity. Many of the early Christians were severely persecuted and martyred for their commitment to Christ. All the terrorists, including Boko Haram are killing and destroying in the promotion of Islam.

The final and complete revelation of God is in Jesus Christ, who was remarkably non-violent in His approach. If a Christian engages in violence in the name of Christ, he is doing so in direct disobedience of His Master. Jesus taught that all who live by the sword will die by it (Matthew 26:52). The teachings and example of Muhammad are very different. A Muslim who desires to commit violence in the name of Islam can find ample justification for his action both in the Koran and in the words and actions of the prophet Muhammad.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Just like the evil days of Sodom and Gomorrah when God rained fire to destroy the city, are several others where wickedness and disobedience to God was the other of the day. Evil culture was practice, they were into brutality, cruelty, incest, bestiality, cultic prostitution, and even child sacrifice by fire.

God had given them(Canaanite people) over 400 years to repent (Genesis 15:13-16). When they did not, the Lord used the Israelites as an instrument of judgment on the evil society. So, God brought upon them a form of capital punishment.
No person had to die. God’s desire is that the wicked turn from their sin rather than perish (Ezekiel 18:31-32, 33:11).

Even if we interpret the text to mean that children were involved, this may have been God’s way of ensuring that these children would be saved and immediately brought into His eternal kingdom. The Scripture implies that all children who die before an age of moral accountability will enter heaven (2 Samuel 12:23; Matthew 19:14). Had God allowed these children to grow up in such a vile and heinous culture, these children would likely have grown up into something like their parents and been condemned to hell after they died. God knows the end from the beginning (Isaiah 46:10), and we are simply not in a position to question God as to what is best. Since God is the Giver of life, only He has the right to take it.

Techwriter: I only agree with few of the above except those people in India think differently. Here are possible regrets of a dying Nigerian in his/her right senses

1. For Epicureans/ politicians and corrupt leaders: vanity upon vanity, all is vanity why did I invest all my energy struggling, killing and maiming for frivolities that have come to pass. I wish I lived with eternity in perspective. Now I know that the most important thing in life is not things

2. For stars and celebrities: I lived for others, I married for the public, they all said we were the best to-match couples on earth, unfortunately it crashed before it took off. I wish I actually lived my live the way I want it and not the way my fans think it should be. Now I've made others happy at my expense, I wish I could borrow happiness from my fans. I have external success but internal collapse; not even drugs can alleviate my malady, yet a lot of young folks wish they could be like me

3. For Atheist: I wish I believed there was a God. If I cross over to discover there is no God, Heaven or Hell I have nothing still to loose(except probably the pleasures of sin that may end in jail, addiction and HIV), but if it turns out to be real, I'm FINISHED.

4. For Tribalists/Racists: imagine that all my life I have been fighting to show how superior we are. Now the same death awaits all of us. Race is only skin deep and ethnicity is a random occurrence. If I have one more year to live,I would start an NGO to let people know we are one and the same

5. For Religious Folks who never fulfilled purpose: I was so engrossed in my religious practices that I never lived the life God gave me. I never touched lives, I never did any thing to change my society for God but simply went to church/mosque, prayed, fasted and believed God to meet my selfish needs. I never answered the question: why was I born? So I never fulfilled purpose.

violent: So Churches now hire OPC members to use Juju for protection....how hilarious! I wonder what is then being preached in those churches?


..

If you believe this story then you can believe anything. Please leave the church out of this.

TroGunn: What's your point, really? Are you saying God lied when he told Adam and Eve "for in the day that you eat from it you will surely die?” But that Satatn was actually the one telling the truth when he told them they would not die?

What evidence do you have that God meant Adam and Eve would physically die within a 24-hr day? Is that really the only way to intepret "day", even when it's been pointed out that a "day" to God can mean a period longer than 24hrs - 2Peter 3:8, Ps 90:4. Of course, it's another case of latching on to something with more than one meaning, just to support your already held belief. As mentioned earlier, Adam and Eve had their death sentence the day the sinned. And they died. It's the original liar, Satan that said they wouldn't die. Satan is just continuing where he left off when he told Adam and Eve they won't die. Now, he's the same one fooling people that they don't really die - they just keep leaving somewhere else.

This is the reality of life and death - "For the living know that they will die, but the dead know nothing; they have no further reward, and even the memory of them is forgotten.Their love, their hate and their jealousy have long since vanished; never again will they have a part in anything that happens under the sun. Whatever your hand finds to do, do it with all your might, for in the grave, where you are going, there is neither working nor planning nor knowledge nor wisdom". Eccl 9:5,6,10 (NIV).

Would a Satan advocate (not dissing - it's in ur name) like you believe the above or would rather just keep repeating the falsehood of Satan?

You are on point @ TroGunn, his signatures says it all. I earlier said some Satan followers are prowling around to defend their master. But who cares, Satan and his followers will forever be put to shame.

advocate666: You talk like he's on your side but he actually contradicted you sort of. I asked him a question about his assertions and he ran away like a good soldier of christ.

How did he contradict me? Yeah, he busted your a*ss...Sorry!

advocate666: This is what I mean by tiny amoeba proteus brain. Trying to correct my words. Hahaha.
So you are now more learned than Collins, eh? http://www.collinsdictionary.com/dictionary/english/nicompoop

I wasn't trying to correct you, far from it but to put it the way it is. You have been corrected in the past and even now on this thread with proven facts but you've chosen to be caged by your instincts. Your stupidd argument don't hold water.

I should ask you if you are more learned than Macmillan dictionary and Wiki dictionary.

See how f.oolish you are?

damosky12: wel wel wel. The life Adam and Eve had was a life beyond d sence realm. That was the Life God meant when He told Adam that when they eat of that fruit they will die (Genesis 2:17). That was the kind of life Jesus reffered to when He said "The thief commeth not but for to kill to steal and to destroy but I am come that ye may have life...." (John 10:10). Ofcus those Jesus were talking to were alive in the sence realm, they were healthy, yet Jesus promissed to give them life.. Wat kinda life do u think He was talking about? Physical life? Obviously not.. That was the SPIRITUAL LIFE. That was the life God referred to when He said eating the fruit will lead to d loss of it.. That was Zoe!! GOD WASNT TALKING ABOUT PHYSICAL LIFE O O O.. He made Man in His own image and likeness (Genesis 1:26) and, Remember, God is Spirit (John 4:24) therefore He created man as a Spirit just like Himself (but gave him a body so that he would be able to leave on earth) having His kind of life (zoe!) in his (Man, Adam's) spirit. When they ate of the tree, they evidently died just as God predicted. They lost that spiritual life and became only physical having only physical life and sences losing all their spiritual life and sences.. That was why their physical eyes were opened and they saw the physical, carnal (their unclothedness) Genesis 3:7. THEY LOST THAT GOD-KIND OF LIFE, THAT SEES NO CARNALITY. Rom 8:7.. They were left to their physical body and sences and no longer spiritual. God meant that "Spiritual" not the "Physical" life. Remember, my God is not a man, Neither is His ways our ways. ISAIAH 55:9.

Someone who is not ready to learn, would you continue to bother yourself to educate advocate666? Go by his comments so far it is obvious he doesn't understand the simple life around him how can he understand the things of the spirit?

advocate666: Tiny amoeba proteus brains. Easily deceived nicompoops.

You are the nincompoop with large brain stocked with nothing but weeds. I see you're easily deceived and led foolishly by science. You have been proven wrong times and times yet you continue to spew rubbish. You're just being f.oolish.

Oahray: No one is using the bible to prove that spirits do not exist. God is a spirit (John 4:24) and so are His angels. The devil is a spirit too as are his demons.
The point is, humans are physical creatures, breath (spirit) in bodies. We do not have an immortal soul (Ezekiel 18:4). The devil would have us believe the opposite.
.
Am sure this answers your first question. Spirits do exist. However we do not have a part of us that survives our death.
.
As for your second question, the answer is related to the reason a certain girl with a spirit, a demon of divination (Acts 16:16-18) who practiced the art of prediction (the demon obviously made her successful as she brought much gain to her masters) kept calling Paul and his companions 'slaves of the Most High'. The demon wasnt lying, however it was trying to identify with God's people. Had Paul had allowed it to continue, what message would it give to the onlookers? THAT THEY (both the possessed girl and the christians) ARE UNITED IN PURPOSE AND OF THE SAME SOURCE. If that isnt deception, what is?
.
Back to Saul and the Witch of Endor... Divination was forbidden by God, yet Saul went secretly to engage in it. How fitting it is, to make it seem that the spiritistic practice of divination and fortune telling was just another way of hearing from God. The words of rebuke were typical of Samuel, making it seem that Samuel who earlier condemned divination as a sin (1 Samuel 15:23) was the same one communicating God's words through the same sinful process. If that isnt deception, what is?
.
The Bible says 'the wages (reward) of sin is death', but that eternal life is a 'gift God gives... by Christ Jesus our Lord' (Romans 6:11). If human do not really die, does the relevance of this 'gift' make any sense to you? Life is life, regardless of its form.

Thank you. I've learn a lot from this.

TroGunn: Bible newbie, have you never read that a day to God can be like a thousand years? - 2Peter 3:8, Ps 90:4. Adam and Eve had their death sentence the day the sinned. And they died. It's the original liar, Satan that said they wouldn't die. He's the same one fooling people that they don't really die. "For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord" - Romans 6:23. If everyone who dies go on living eternally, in heaven or hell as some say, then how does God reward with gift of another eternal life? Can one get two eternal life?

Don't mind him. Y do u bother replying him, I jump over his nonsense comments. With some comments you can easily tell who are satan's agents.
