Ebubu6:
Did you continue ? Was the LinkedIn renting and leasing legitimate or scam ?

Someone is messaging me now

I didn't.

If the person wants to advertise on your wall, let him send you the content and let you post it. Not asking for one's login details so as to be the one doing it.

"I recently connected with someone on LinkedIn who reached out with a business opportunity. He proposed using my account to promote his services and offered a monthly compensation, as well as a referral incentive. However, I'm hesitant as he requested my login credentials, which seems unusual."

Has anyone encountered such new scam?

lexylexy:
Nice. Kindly let us know how it was refunded. Did you go to their office or you called customer service?

I went to their office and lodged an official complaint. I made sure they sent me an acknowledged email.

They told me it would take within two weeks.
Well it got resolved within a week.

My money has been refunded.

Thank you

Last night I received a debit card transaction from my first bank account which I'm not even aware of. The last thing I did on their app was update my NIN and this is what I'm seeing!!!

I already blocked my account yesterday.

I don'r use my verve card online because what they mostly ask for is MasterCard.

So how did this happen

Afolue:
From the words of Jesus he never identified himself as God. We all are sons and daughters of God. Children of God period! Including Jesus! All the attributes of himself he equated with every other human on earth. If God truly exists, he will not stoop so low as to sacrificing himself to forgive the sins of his own creation. Such belief sounds crazy! No man can see God, common sense should make anyone analyze the truth! That the son of a king is a prince, never can that be with God most high. If there was trinity, one would have over thrown the other by now. Jesus is not God, Mohammed is not God. God is God!

SENSELESS TALK

mecuries:
a quick Google search on God and Jesus would give you this Is Jesus and God are the same?
Is Jesus God?
But God and Jesus are also separate beings in that Jesus is the Son and God is the Father. As persons of the Trinity, they are separate, yet with the Holy Spirit, they are united and interdependent.

why do i need Google when i believe in something.
God is not the father. The father is God. The Son is God. The Holy Spirit is God. All three makes up the trinity.
They all share one identity. GOD.

When they say Jesus is the son of God, do you actually think they mean it like when they say Tunde is my son? lol
Jesus telling them He is the Son of God means he has all the attributes of God. Invariable that makes him God too. When God created the world

in the beginning, it was through His word. He spoke the word and everything came into being. Jesus is the word of GOD. That word was generated from the source (GOD). it was not created, but was generated. Hope you understand the difference between creating and generating.

Jesus has all the qualities God has. That make him God

mecuries:
like I asked in my previous post," was He speaking to himself?"

To answer your question. Jesus was having a dual nature while on earth. Human and divine.
The human part of him has all the human attributes : fear, hunger, distress feeling etc just like anyone of us. So whatever he did was for us to emulate him. If he prays, we ought to pray too. If he fast, we ought to fast too. If he prays to GOD the Father, we also should do the same.

God the father
God the son
God the Holy spirit. These 3 persons are one. That is where Trinity comes in. I am not going to explain, because you will not understand.

Him praying does not mean he is praying to himself. At that moment in time he is a human and is praying to God the Father.

AntiChristian:
How did you know this?

That God has a particular time to claim being God!

This is the greatest tomfoolery ever!

God dey hide hin godship!

You are the one who is wrong. You are here arguing because you are living in the 21st century with technology and all that. Jesus was a Jew. He knew the culture and traditions of the Jews, hence he has to align himself into them while doing his work.

The Jews belief is that ''The Lord our God is One''. Do you want Jesus to come out nd say ''I AM GOD'' common! doing that will break their tradition and beliefs. But he told them in various ways which was why they wanted to stone him because he was claiming to be God.

Jesus didnt shy away from telling them he is divine, even when they want to kill him. To them it was a taboo and blasphemy, because that was their religious belief, hence i don't blame them.

Everfrank:
But did Jesus said he was God?

Read the Bible well. Jesus didn't say he was a prophet and he didn't also say he was God directly. But his remarks and statements are enough to tell us who he was.

mecuries:
.. how childish could you be to resort to insults in a little discussion?.. what is there to understand?

you are the one deciding on what to believe in and not necessarily what is a fact. So no one can force you to believe something you do not want to, isn't it?

Great Religious Leader?

Surprisingly, Jesus never claimed to be a religious leader. He never got into religious politics or pushed an ambitious agenda, and he ministered almost entirely outside the established religious framework.

When one compares Jesus with the other great religious leaders, a remarkable distinction emerges. Ravi Zacharias, who grew up in a Hindu culture, has studied world religions and observed a fundamental distinction between Jesus Christ and the founders of other major religions.
"In all of these, there emerges an instruction, a way of living. It is not Zoroaster to whom you turn; it is Zoroaster to whom you listen. It is not Buddha who delivers you; it is his Noble Truths that instruct you. It is not Mohammad who transforms you; it is the beauty of the Koran that woos you. By contrast, Jesus did not only teach or expound His message. He was identical with His message.

The truth of Zacharias’ point is underscored by the number of times in the Gospels that Jesus’ teaching message was simply “Come to me” or “Follow me” or “Obey me.” Also, Jesus made it clear that his primary mission was to forgive sins, something only God could do.

In The World’s Great Religions, Huston Smith observed, “Only two people ever astounded their contemporaries so much that the question they evoked was not ‘Who is he?’ but ‘What is he?’ They were Jesus and Buddha. The answers these two gave were exactly the opposite. Buddha said unequivocally that he was a mere man, not a god—almost as if he foresaw later attempts to worship him. Jesus, on the other hand, claimed … to be divine.”

And that leads us to the question of what Jesus really did claim for himself; specifically, did Jesus claim to be divine? Did Jesus Claim to be God?
So what is it that convinces many scholars that Jesus claimed to be God? Author, John Piper explains that Jesus claimed power which uniquely belonged to God.
“…Jesus’ friends and enemies were staggered again and again by what he said and did. He would be walking down the road, seemingly like any other man, and then turn and say something like, ‘Before Abraham was, I am.’ Or, ‘If you have seen me, you have seen the Father.’ Or, very calmly, after being accused of blasphemy, he would say, ‘The Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins.’ To the dead he might simply say, ‘Come forth,’ or, ‘Rise up.’ And they would obey. To the storms on the sea he would say, ‘Be still.’ And to a loaf of bread he would say, ‘Become a thousand meals.’ And it was done immediately.”

But what did Jesus really mean by such statements? Is it possible Jesus was merely a prophet like Moses or Elijah, or Daniel? Even a superficial reading of the Gospels reveals that Jesus claimed to be someone more than a prophet. No other prophet had made such claims about himself; in fact, no other prophet ever put himself in God’s place.
Some argue that Jesus never explicitly said, “I am God.” It is true that he never stated the exact words, “I am God.” However, Jesus also never explicitly said, “I am a man,” or “I am a prophet.” Yet Jesus was undoubtedly human, and his followers considered him a prophet like Moses and Elijah. So we cannot rule out Jesus being divine just because he didn’t say those exact words, anymore than we can say he wasn’t a prophet.
In fact, Jesus’ statements about himself contradict the notion that he was simply a great man or a prophet. On more than one occasion, Jesus referred to himself as God’s Son. When asked whether he thought it far-fetched for Jesus to be the Son of God, lead singer of U2, Bono, answered:
“No, it’s not far-fetched to me. Look, the secular response to the Christ story always goes like this: He was a great prophet, obviously a very interesting guy, had a lot to say along the lines of other great prophets, be they Elijah, Muhammad, Buddha, or Confucius. But actually Christ doesn’t allow you that. He doesn’t let you off the hook. Christ says, no. I’m not saying I’m a teacher, don’t call me a teacher. I’m not saying I’m a prophet….I’m saying I’m God incarnate.” And people say: No, no, please, just be a prophet. A prophet we can take.”
Before we examine Jesus’ claims, it is important to understand that he made them in the context of the Jewish belief in one God (monotheism). No faithful Jew would ever believe in more than one God. And Jesus believed in the one God, praying to his Father as, “the only true God.”
But in that same prayer, Jesus spoke of having always existed with his Father. And when Philip asked Jesus to show them the Father, Jesus said, “Philip, have I been with you so long and you don’t know me? Whoever has seen me has seen the Father.” So the question is: “Was Jesus claiming to be the Hebrew God who created the world?

Did Jesus Claim to be the God of Abraham & Moses?

Jesus continually referred to himself in ways that confounded his listeners. As Piper notes, Jesus made the audacious statement, “Before Abraham was, I AM.” He told Martha and others around her, “I AM the resurrection and the life; he who believes in me, though he is dead, yet shall he live.” Likewise, Jesus would make statements like, “I AM the light of the world,” “I AM the only way to God,” or, “I AM the “truth.” These and several other of his claims were preceded by the sacred words for God, “I AM” (ego eimi). What did Jesus mean by such statements, and what is the significance or the term, “I AM”?

Once again, we must go back to context. In the Hebrew Scriptures, when Moses asked God His name at the burning bush, God answered, “I AM.” He was revealing to Moses that He is the one and only God who is outside of time and has always existed. Incredibly, Jesus was using these holy words to describe himself. The question is, “Why?”

Since the time of Moses, no practicing Jew would ever refer to himself or anyone else by “I AM.” As a result, Jesus’ “I AM” claims infuriated the Jewish leaders. One time, for example, some leaders explained to Jesus why they were trying to kill him: “Because you, a mere man, have made yourself God.”
Jesus’ usage of God’s name greatly angered the religious leaders. The point is that these Old Testament scholars knew exactly what he was saying—he was claiming to be God, the Creator of the universe. It is only this claim that would have brought the accusation of blasphemy. To read into the text that Jesus claimed to be God is clearly warranted, not simply by his words, but also by their reaction to those words.
C. S. Lewis initially considered Jesus a myth. But this literary genius, who knew myths well, concluded that Jesus had to have been a real person. Furthermore, as Lewis investigated the evidence for Jesus, he became convinced that not only was Jesus real, but he was unlike any man who had ever lived. Lewis writes,

“Then comes the real shock,’ wrote Lewis: ‘Among these Jews there suddenly turns up a man who goes about talking as if He was God. He claims to forgive sins. He says He always existed. He says He is coming to judge the world at the end of time.”

To Lewis, Jesus’ claims were simply too radical and profound to have been made by an ordinary teacher or religious leader.

What Kind of God?

Some have argued that Jesus was only claiming to be part of God. But the idea that we are all part of God, and that within us is the seed of divinity, is simply not a possible meaning for Jesus’ words and actions. Such thoughts are revisionist, foreign to his teaching, foreign to his stated beliefs, and foreign to his disciples’ understanding of his teaching.
Jesus taught that he is God in the way the Jews understood God and the way the Hebrew Scriptures portrayed God, not in the way the New Age movement understands God. Neither Jesus nor his audience had been weaned on Star Wars, and so when they spoke of God, they were not speaking of cosmic forces. It’s simply bad history to redefine what Jesus meant by the concept of God.

Lewis explains,
Now let us get this clear. Among Pantheists, like the Indians, anyone might say that he was a part of God, or one with God….But this man, since He was a Jew, could not mean that kind of God. God, in their language, meant the Being outside the world, who had made it and was infinitely different from anything else. And when you have grasped that, you will see that what this man said was, quite simply, the most shocking thing that has ever been uttered by human lips.
Certainly there are those who accept Jesus as a great teacher, yet are unwilling to call him God. As a Deist, we’ve seen that Thomas Jefferson had no problem accepting Jesus’ teachings on morals and ethics while denying his deity. but as we’ve said, and will explore further, if Jesus was not who he claimed to be, then we must examine some other alternatives, none of which would make him a great moral teacher. Lewis, argued, “I am trying here to prevent anyone from saying the really foolish thing that people often say about Him: ‘I’m ready to accept Jesus as a great moral teacher, but I don’t accept his claim to be God.’ That is the one thing we must not say.”
In his quest for truth, Lewis knew that he could not have it both ways with the identity of Jesus. Either Jesus was who he claimed to be—God in the flesh—or his claims were false. And if they were false, Jesus could not be a great moral teacher. He would either be lying intentionally or he would be a lunatic with a God complex.

Calitoscassius:
Jesus and God doesn't exist. They are just imginations in people's heads. There are no proofs that God or Jesus exist.

Just like your brain doesn't exist

mecuries:
To the people opposing this, let me ask, if Jesus Christ is God, who was he praying to?.. in Luke 22:42-44, when he said “Father, if it is Your will, take this cup away from Me; nevertheless not My will, but Yours, be done.”.. was he speaking to himself?

You do not understand , so don't bother your tiny head.
