Psalm 14:1 KJV
The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good.


And since those saying there is no God are fools , all we need to do is :

Proverbs 26:4 KJV
Answer not a fool according to his folly, lest thou also be like unto him.

Former Nigerian Ambassador to Switzerland, Yahaya Kwande and member representing Jos North constituency in the Plateau House of Assembly, Baba Hassan have been fingered as having contributed to the success of an impending jihad in Plateau and four other states.

An unconfirmed letter to the Muslim Ummah in Nigeria, supposedly leaked and shared by a security source also lists efforts by a Plateau based businessman, Dan China and top security heads towards the religious cleansing.

According to the document, 10,500 militia men have been deployed to Plateau, Benue, Bauchi, Kaduna and Taraba with 1,700 rifles and several sacks of ammunitions.

It says, “Those we deployed to Jos have spread to every Village So also Makurdi and Kaduna. Taraba and Bauchi.

“To those in Makurdi, we supplied them with twelve (12) sacks of ammunition. Those in Jos, eight ( sacks and to those in Kaduna, nine (9) sacks.

“To those in Taraba, ten (10) sacks and Six (6) sacks to Bauchi.

“All in all with One thousand seven hundred (1,700) rifles and ten thousand live hundred (10,500) Militia Men.”

The document purportedly written in Hausa language and translated in English highlights the contributions of top Muslim figures thus:

That was how Islam began , a violent satanic religion.

Give it a rest you Christian infidel
Join your pastors to f*ck your choir gals and steal money

At least we Christians are not idol worshippers like the Muslims that lack spiritual knowledge :

Volume 2, Book 26, Number 675:
Sahih Bukhari :
Narrated Zaid bin Aslam from his father who said:

"Umar bin Al-Khattab addressed the Corner (Black Stone) saying, 'By Allah! I know that you are a stone and can neither benefit nor harm. Had I not seen the Prophet touching (and kissing) you, I would never have touched (and kissed) you.' Then he kissed it and said, 'There is no reason for us to do Ramal (in Tawaf) except that we wanted to show off before the pagans, and now Allah has destroyed them.' 'Umar added, '(Nevertheless), the Prophet did that and we do not want to leave it (i.e. Ramal).'

If it had been written that Muhammad dedicated in a pot and cook it for medicine , Muslims would would have been doing so by now.


Also , Christians do not follow their pastors , they follow the words of God in the Bible unlike the Muslims.
Although , some pastors are shameful and useless but their shamefulness cannot be compared with that of Muhammad:

Allah SWT says:

وَإِذْ تَقُولُ لِلَّذِىٓ أَنْعَمَ اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَأَنْعَمْتَ عَلَيْهِ أَمْسِكْ عَلَيْكَ زَوْجَكَ وَاتَّقِ اللَّهَ وَتُخْفِى فِى نَفْسِكَ مَا اللَّهُ مُبْدِيهِ وَتَخْشَى النَّاسَ وَاللَّهُ أَحَقُّ أَنْ تَخْشٰىهُ ۖ فَلَمَّا قَضٰى زَيْدٌ مِّنْهَا وَطَرًا زَوَّجْنٰكَهَا لِكَىْ لَا يَكُونَ عَلَى الْمُؤْمِنِينَ حَرَجٌ فِىٓ أَزْوٰجِ أَدْعِيَآئِهِمْ إِذَا قَضَوْا مِنْهُنَّ وَطَرًا ۚ وَكَانَ أَمْرُ اللَّهِ مَفْعُولًا
"And [remember, O Muhammad], when you said to the one on whom Allah bestowed favor and you bestowed favor, "Keep your wife and fear Allah," while you concealed within yourself that which Allah is to disclose. And you feared the people, while Allah has more right that you fear Him. So when Zayd had no longer any need for her, We married her to you in order that there not be upon the believers any discomfort concerning the wives of their adopted sons when they no longer have need of them. And ever is the command of Allah accomplished."
(QS. Al-Ahzaab: Verse 37)

* Via the Beautiful Qur'an https:///QLwc8B

The Benue Christians should not only defend themselves but should go all out and attack the herdsmen wherever they are .

Attack is the best defense , by the time the herdsmen are killed in hundreds of thousands and are on the run , the govt will hypocritically and shamefully do something.


The herdsmen are employing the tackticks of Muhammad. That was how Islam started. If not for the Christian crusade , the caliphates would have captured the world. They are blood sucking religious people of the Devil.

That useless Muhammad started it all by listening to the devil.
May hell fire be upon him.

JesusSonOfGod:
Principalities and powers of darkness don't die. Jesus didn't tell us to be physically violent, rather it means we should be violent in faith. Jesus never commanded any demon to die, but casted them out. It is not recorded in any place in the Bible where such prayer was made. The instructions are simple and it's better to be obedient.

You understand those scriptures wrongly. Since you said you are a Catholic I don't expect you to understand, but may God help us all

Where did I say I am a catholic?

I asked you about the case of Paul. Why did he not pray for the man? Is that not part of the scriptures?

Gggg102:
the die die prayers are targeted at human enemies.
the first Bible verses you showed were targeted at human enemies.

die prayers can't work on demons and Satan because they cannot die, they are spirits.

First , I am a christian and I read my Bible on a daily basis .
As a christian you should know there are different levels of enemies. The enemies Jesus was addressing were the human enemies who still need prayers but not the enemies that have decided to be enemies of God and invariably our enemies. These are :
PRINCIPALITIES ,
POWERS,
RULERS OF DARKNESS,
AND SPIRITUAL WICKED POWERS IN HIGH PLACES.

Ephesians 6:12,16-17 KJV
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against PRICIPALUTIES, against POWERS, against the RULERS OF THE DARKNESS of this world, against SPIRITUAL WICKEDNESS in high places .
[16] Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.
[17] And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:

A prayer is a spiritual matter and no one can make or force God to kill his enemies in the name of Jesus Christ.

MfM members dont pray against human beings but against those wicked powers mentioned above , which are the REAL ENEMIES.

Jesus Christ told us to pray for our enemies and also told us to be VIOLENT.
How can you be violent as a christian , physically or spiritually? And against WHO? Is is against those you are to pray for or other wicked powers like Herod?

Matthew 11:12 KJV
And from the days of John the Baptist until now the kingdom of heaven suffereth violence, and the violent take it by force.

It is a fact that spirits don't die but when the spirit bcoms powerless or impotent against you , that spirit is dead in that persons life. When something is inactive , it is termed "dead".
Just like a dead sea. a dead certificate, a dead man walking, a dead key , a dead engine etc. The engine is there but not working , the man is walking about but dead spiritually, as far as God is concern.

The devil makes use of human agents like witches , wizards cultists etc. Some will not repent . Paul talked about love and still prayed against an enemy :

1 Corinthians 13:1-5 KJV
Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal. [2] And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing. [3] And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor , and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me nothing. [4] Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity envieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up, [5] Doth not behave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;

Acts 13:10-11 KJV
And said, O full of all subtilty and all mischief, thou child of the devil, thou enemy of all righteousness, wilt thou not cease to pervert the right ways of the Lord?
[11] And now, behold, the hand of the Lord is upon thee, and thou shalt be blind, not seeing the sun for a season. And immediately there fell on him a mist and a darkness; and he went about seeking some to lead him by the hand.


Why did Paul pray against that man ?

The first wife is the wife God recognises as the true wife.

With prayers God can make your wife to return to you.Show your first and second wife the scriptures below :

Matthew 5:32 KJV
But I say unto you, That whosoever shall put away his wife, saving for the cause of fornication, causeth her to commit adultery: and whosoever shall marry her that is divorced committeth adultery.

John 4:17-18 KJV
The woman answered and said, I have no husband. Jesus said unto her, Thou hast well said, I have no husband: [18] For thou hast had five husbands; and he whom thou now hast is not thy husband: in that saidst thou truly.

A religious group, the Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC) said President Muhammadu Buhari’s characterization of Nigerian youths at an event in London last week is ‘apt, precise and succinct.’

The group, in a statement released by Professor Ishaq Akintola, its Director on Monday also accused the media of deliberately twisting Buhari’s statement as it argued that the president did not use the word ‘lazy’ in his speech.

The group said, “Nigerians need to contextualize the president’s comment. We have seen many youths functioning as political thugs as the 2019 general elections approach.

They have started vandalizing properties and disrupting political gatherings.

If the youths are lazy , it means their parents have failed in their responsubilities as parents to bring up their children in the right ways.
It directly and indirectly means the Muslims have failed to bring up their children up in the right ways as well.

The Bible says in :

Proverbs 22:6 KJV
Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.

If the head is spoilt or bad , the whole body will become rotten.
The government is the problems of Nigeria. The government is the head of the nation. When most of the government officials are corrupt and have squandered away the resources that should be used to create an enabling environment for job creations , what do you think will happen to the youth of such a country ?

The elders in their times had so much opportunities like scholarships , job opportunities , free educations etc but they failed to provide such opportunities for the youth .

In the 70s , a fresh graduate is given a brand new car after six months of employment in the government parastatals. But now , what do we have ? No vacancy talkless of giving a brand new car after six months .


In summary , the Muslims and the Christians should stop this sycophancy and call a spade a spade . Everyone should come together and blame the elders for the ways they ruled this country since they came into power in the 60s.
There is no nation that can prosper when the rulers are competing in embezzlement and fraud.
When the goals of the rulers are how to better their pockets and train their children in another developed nation , how do we expect them to contribute positively to the development of the such nation?
Such leaders should be blamed and their properties confiscated with severe penalties to discourage others coming after them,

Gggg102:
this is what Jesus was talking about when he said 'you have heard it said, love those who love you and hate those who hate you, but I say to you love those who hate you and pray for those who wish you evil for if you love those who love you, how are you different from the sinners for they also love those who love them.... god causes it to rain on both good and evil and the sun shines on both good and evil'.

the old covenant taught that you should love your friends and hate your enemies while the new covenant teaches that you should love everyone and pray for your enemies.

Jesus early Christians showed this example.

Jesus prayed for forgiveness of those that killed him.

Stephen prayed for forgiveness of those that killed him.

they did not pray for their deaths but for their lives.

Are we to pray for Satan and his agents then or is Satan not an enemy?

What do you mean by praying against ones enemies is unscriptural?

Are the below passages not part of the scriptures ?

Jeremiah 17:18 KJV
Let them be confounded that persecute me, but let not me be confounded: let them be dismayed, but let not me be dismayed: bring upon them the day of evil, and destroy them with double destruction.

Psalm 140:8-10 KJV
Grant not, O Lord , the desires of the wicked: further not his wicked device; lest they exalt themselves. Selah.
[9] As for the head of those that compass me about, let the mischief of their own lips cover them.
[10] Let burning coals fall upon them: let them be cast into the fire; into deep pits, that they rise not up again.

Islam is false and Muhammad was a satanic prophet:

Volume 4, Book 54, Number 445:

Narrated Abu Dhar:

The Prophet said, "Gabriel said to me, 'Whoever amongst your followers die without having worshipped others besides Allah, will enter Paradise (or will not enter the (Hell) Fire)." The Prophet asked. "Even if he has committed illegal sexual intercourse or theft?" He replied, "Even then."

All Islam teaches is worshipping Allah, even when the worshipper is a demon incarnate .

Op, prosperity gospel means all what the church preaches is how to prosper financially , children wise and health wise, but little or no focus on the saving of souls.
God wants us to prosper even as our souls prospers.
God prospered Abraham , Isaac and Jacob including David and Solomon , but what is the essence of the prosperity when the person dies and goes to hell?


Mark 8:36-37 KJV
For what shall it profit a man, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul?
[37] Or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?


As long as someone is obeying the commandments of God , such a person will be blessed . There is therefore no need to preach about prosperity:

Genesis 17:1-2 KJV
And when Abram was ninety years old and nine, the Lord appeared to Abram, and said unto him, I am the Almighty God; walk before me, and be thou perfect.
[2] And I will make my covenant between me and thee, and will multiply thee exceedingly.

Matthew 6:33 KJV
But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.


Kingdom of God first.

If God were a Trinity, how come the Holy Spirit has not seen the father who he is equal to?

Can you see the lies that have been told for centuries?

John 1:18 No one has ever seen God, but the one and only Son

You lack understanding of the scriptures.
Jesus was talking about those humans who died since time of Adam till the time he came to die for our sins.

The heavenly beings like the 24 elders ,the angels of God and Holy Spirit see God on a daily basis.

This is the right scripture :

John 1:18 KJV
No MAN hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him.

Op , if Jesus was an angel would there be any need for him to take up the nature of an angel again , as written below ?

Hebrews 2:16 KJV
For verily he took not on him the nature of angels; but he took on him the seed of Abraham.

Op , we have been warned not to worship angels , but by calling Jesus an angel , it means we are worshipping an angel Michael. Is this not contradictory ?
The below is what the Bible says concerning people like you :

Colossians 2:18 KJV
Let no man beguile you of your reward in a voluntary humility and worshipping of angels, intruding into those things which he hath not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind,

To come with the voice of an archangel means Jesus will be accompanied by the angels including angel Michael who will announce the coming of the Lord Jesus Christ .

Matthew 25:31 KJV
When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory:


Angel Michael lacks the authority to rebuke Satan by himself but Jesus , even when made lower than the angels , had the authority to rebuke Satan by himself:

Jude 1:9 KJV
Yet Michael the archangel, when contending with the devil he disputed about the body of Moses, durst not bring against him a railing accusation, but said, The LORD rebuke thee.

MICHAEL COULD ONLY REBUKED SATAN IN THE NAME OF THE LORD.

Matthew 16:23 KJV
But he turned, and said unto Peter, Get thee behind me, Satan: thou art an offence unto ME: for thou savourest not the things that be of God, but those that be of men.

Jesus did not ask the devil to get behind in the name of the Lord as we read in the book of Jude. Jesus also accused Satan by saying " thou savourest not the things that be of God,but those that are of men". Michael could not do this but referred Satan to the fact that the Lord Jesus is against him.

removetheturban:
Michael is called the archangel (Jude 9). This term means chief angel. This shows that there is only one such angel.

Revelation 12:7 pictures Michael as the leader of the army of angels - the Bible states Michael and his angels battled with the dragon and its angels.

Matthew 16:27 says: "For the Son of man is to come in the glory of his Father with his angels, and then he will repay each one according to his behavior."

So the Bible speaks of both Michael and his angels and Jesus and his angels

Since the Bible nowhere indicates that there are two armies of faithful angels in heaven, one headed by Michael and one headed by Jesus, it is logical to conclude that Michael is none other Jesus Christ in his heavenly role.

Some have said that the scripture in 1 Thessalonians 4:16 only refers to an archangel's voice. However, "voice" often refers to authority. It is not disrespectful to say that Jesus commands the angels, because he is the Son of God, to whom all authority was given to him by his Father. Matthew 28:18

But the real problem is the trinity doctrine, which Bible scholars have repeatedly stated was developed long after Jesus and his apostles.

The New Encyclopædia Britannica says: “Neither the word Trinity, nor the explicit doctrine as such, appears in the New Testament, nor did Jesus and his followers intend to contradict the Shema in the Old Testament: ‘Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God is one Lord’ (Deut. 6:4). . . . The doctrine developed gradually over several centuries and through many controversies. . . . By the end of the 4th century . . . the doctrine of the Trinity took substantially the form it has maintained ever since.”—(1976), Micropædia, Vol. X, p. 126.

The New Catholic Encyclopedia states: “The formulation ‘one God in three Persons’ was not solidly established, certainly not fully assimilated into Christian life and its profession of faith, prior to the end of the 4th century. But it is precisely this formulation that has first claim to the title the Trinitarian dogma. Among the Apostolic Fathers, there had been nothing even remotely approaching such a mentality or perspective.”—(1967), Vol. XIV, p. 299.

Another contention is that as a Person of the trinity, Jesus could not have been created by God. The Athanasian Creed, written long after the first century, asserts that each of the three Persons is uncreated. But the Bible says:

Col. 1:15, 16, RS: “He [Jesus Christ] is the image of the invisible God, the first-born of all creation; for in him all things were created, in heaven and on earth.”

Some say that "first-born" means prime, most excellent, but in the Bible it always means that the person was BORN.

Rev. 1:1; 3:14, RS: “The revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave him . . . ‘And to the angel of the church in La-odicea write: “The words of the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning [Greek, ar•kheʹ] of God’s creation.”’” (KJ, Dy, CC, and NW.)

Not the beginner, but the beginning. The Greek word is clear.

That the trinity doctrine is man made and false is clear in the inspired scriptures:

Jesus prays to God. (John 17:1-3)
Jesus has faith in God. (Hebrews 2:17,18, Hebrews 3:2)
Jesus is a servant of God. (Acts 3:13)
Jesus does not know things God knows. (Mark 13:32, Revelation 1:1)
Jesus worships God. (John 4:22)
Jesus has one who is God to him. (Revelation 3:12)
Jesus is in subjection to God. (1 Corinthians 15:28)
Jesus' head is God. (1 Corinthians 11:1)

For these clear scriptural reasons, and for others in the source links, Jesus is not a Person of the trinity, he is the first born, only begotten Son of the Most High God, Savior and Ransomer who died for my sins. He is also the leader of all of the angels, and his role as such is clearly stated, The name Michael means "Who is Like God?" which indicates that he is the one who, more than anyone else, he will never take his Father's preeminence and authority as the "only true God," who "is one" and the "Most High". John 17:3 Mark 12:29; Psalm 83:18; Luke 1:32

What is the difference btw an archangel and an angel ?
Head teacher is also a teacher.
Head usher is also an usher.
ARCHANGEL IS ALSO AN ANGEL.

The Bible says in :

Hebrews 1:4-8 KJV
Being made so much better than the angels, as he hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they.
[5] For unto which of the angels said he at any time, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee? And again, I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son?
[6] And again, when he bringeth in the firstbegotten into the world, he saith, And let all the angels of God worship him.
[7] And of the angels he saith, Who maketh his angels spirits, and his ministers a flame of fire.
[8] But unto the Son he saith , Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom.


This scripture below tells us that we should not worship any angel:

Revelation 19:10 KJV
And I fell at his feet to worship him. And he said unto me, See thou do it not: I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren that have the testimony of Jesus: worship God: for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.

But the following scriptures shows where Jesus is worshipped like his Father :

Revelation 5:8-14 KJV
And when he had taken the book, the four beasts and four and twenty elders fell down before the Lamb, having every one of them harps, and golden vials full of odours, which are the prayers of saints.
[9] And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation;
[10] And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth.
[11] And I beheld, and I heard the voice of many angels round about the throne and the beasts and the elders: and the number of them was ten thousand times ten thousand, and thousands of thousands;
[12] Saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and blessing.
[13] And every creature which is in heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them, heard I saying, Blessing, and honour, and glory, and power, be unto him that sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb for ever and ever.
[14] And the four beasts said, Amen. And the four and twenty elders fell down and worshipped him that liveth for ever and ever.

The Bible tells us that the name of the Son of God is Jesus and the name of the archangel is Michael , how do they relate?

My dear, any genetic biologist can create a creature but the problem is what kinda creature will you end up creating and again, there are strict lows barring them from doing such, for the sake of humanity and inteferring with nature...

Give me a suitable laboratory and ask me to make a living thing, I will do it, it's just all about creating a stabilized genetic sequence and expressing the genes but like I said, that might be detrimental to the existence of humanity.

And again, the concept of sweet and bitter fruit is explanable by the genetic characterized of the plants involved.

You eat plants, have you asked yourself why you are not made of plants?

A geneticist cannot produce any living thing without making use of the basic genetic basis of the thing or plant to be produced.
For example , a claim to produce a human being by taking the X & Y chromosome from humans has not created anything but only produced another human existing in the chromosomic form. That is taking the sperm from a man and an egg from the woman to produce a baby is not a creation but reproduction.
To take what is in existence to produce a new one or another type is not a creation .

There is no way you can create a new plant which is nonexisting without taking something from a plant that is already in existence, that is why you are called a "geneticist".
You can only be a breeder . You cannot create a plant with a new genetic form of its own.
To "produce" is different from to "create".

You can only produce but can never create something that is new from nothing.


You said why am I not made of plants since I eat plant.
The answer is simple. God created it that way and there is nothing anybody can do about that.
Your question is also liking to asking why cars are not made of PETROL since cars drink petrol as their food to move.

the Bible us highly incorrect when it comes dating, according to the bible, the earth is 6,000years old

How do you know that the Bible dating is wrong?

Have you not seen in this life where a thief is calling the owner of a purse thief?

Have you not seen where fake is calling the original fake ?

Who ever and whatever makes people to say Biblical accounts are incorrect is a fake and of the Satan.

Also , the Bible did not say the earth is only about 6, 000 years.
From the time of Adam to the time of Noah alone was more than 6,000 years , how then did they come about their own calculations?

if you understand elementary biology, then you won't see anything mysterious about that

Did your advance biology teach you how to create your own kind of fruit with the sweetness you desire?


Is biology not useless to you when there is a need to get "blood " to save a dying soul?

Biology will teach you the functions of reproductive organs but cannot produce any organ.
It will teach you how the blood circulates but cannot teach you how to produce that blood.
It will teach the functions of the heart and kidneys but can never produce any.


Your life itself is a mystery . That thing or breath which gives you existence as a human is a mysterious thing which all the scientists of old and new put together cannot understand.
That "breath of life " is what the biology will never teach you nor talk about. What makes you a living being is not known to biology and can never be known or created by any man , because it is also a mystery.

Did you learn from your advance biology how and why we have a sweet fruit and a tasteless fruit from the same soil?
Is the sweetness coming from the soil or from the tree itself?
Even thinking about how plants turn water and carbon dioxide into food when there is sunlight is a pointer that there is a designer somewhere somehow.

There is a Greater Creator whose name is Jesus Christ that created these things which science can never understand.

Science cannot create "water". Water is a mystery.

There is a God, it does not matter whether you believe or not. He exists and will ever be God.

Our God is a God of wonders and doing marvelous deeds .He chose him to be His servant from his mother's womb to save souls even by watching of films.

Isaiah 54:17 KJV
No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord , and their righteousness is of me, saith the Lord .


He is a candidate of heaven . May God preserve his life and that of his families and help them to finish well , in Jesus name.

Our God is a God of wonders and doing marvelous deeds .He chose him to be His servant from his mother's womb to save souls even by watching of films.

Isaiah 54:17 KJV

Offering is not compulsory , what is compulsory is for you to worship in holiness and love . God wants to save your soul which money cannot buy :

John 4:23 KJV
But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him.

So there is no gap between God's existence since the infinite past and when he decided to create a universe? The universe is roughly 13.7 billion yrs old so thats not forever, there must have been that period when God was all alone. What was he doing?

Your response was quite scientific btw, space and time began with the big bang. But clearly God is older as per your asertion

There is nothing like "big bang". It is simply telling people that there was a creator , that caused the big bang , but denying existence of God.

It is inverably saying that this universe came into existence by chance , which is not possible.

The Bible recorded an event that took place in Egypt about 3, 000 years ago. The Bible says God divided the Red Sea into 2 parts for about 12 hours for the Israelites to escape death from Pharaoh the king in Egypt. It says that the Egyptians perished in that sea.

Who can divide a Sea and rivers if not the Creator that knows in and out of how the Sea came into existence?

Are you in any way telling us Jesus is the same person as Yahweh, also known as Jehovah?

Because in Deut 32:9

World English Bible
For Yahweh's portion is his people. Jacob is the lot of his inheritance.

Young's Literal Translation
For Jehovah's portion is His people, Jacob is the line of His inheritance.


The bible noted that another God, Chemosh inherited Moab. Numbers 21:29, the god Chemosh is assigned to the people of Moab. So is Baal and Ashtar. Do you mean these are the God the son like Jesus?

If Yahweh could inherit a people, a land; who did he inherit it from?

Let me help you. El Elyon is the cannanite king of Gods. He is the Father of Yahweh. This mean that the God you worship was created.

What you are practicing is the religion of the devil. That is , you are a satanist .

You can still be free from the shackles of the devil.

Let me help you.. Psalm 94:14
For the LORD will not reject his people; he will never forsake his inheritance.

Inheritance can be defined as the practice of passing on property, titles, debts, rights, and obligations upon the death of an individual. Latin root is inhereditare, "to appoint as heir." The meaning changed in the 14th century to "receive, to be the heir."

This mean the Father God is the heir of someone who alloted to him, Israel. Who is this someone? I ran across a document that held that Yahweh just like Ashtar, Chemosh, Baal are the son of El

The Lord in psalm 94:14 , is not God the Father but God the son.
Jesus inherited Israel and the saints from the Father :

John 17:9-12 KJV
I pray for them: I pray not for the world, but for them which thou hast given me; for they are thine.
[10] And all mine are thine, and thine are mine; and I am glorified in them.
[11] And now I am no more in the world, but these are in the world, and I come to thee. Holy Father, keep through thine own name those whom thou hast given me, that they may be one, as we are .
[12] While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name: those that thou gavest me I have kept, and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled.

Revelation 3:12 KJV
Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my new name.

The above was your comment.

the earth hath he given to the children of men + The saints are going to heaven where God dwells

are the saints sons of spirits or sons of men? What are they and where are they from?

Human life is in 2 Phases ;

One hear on earth and the second in heaven or in hell.

After judgement day , the saints shall be returned back to the earth to live permanently on earth.

Are you saying God has been in existence since inexistence?

Compare the two boldened lines and ask yourself if you can read and understand properly.

What is so hard about the statements that you don't understand?

The sky containing the moon and the stars which your eyes can see is the heaven that is going to pass away and not the heaven where God is , which is called the "heaven of heavens".

Nehemiah 9:6 KJV
Thou, even thou, art Lord alone; thou hast made heaven, the heaven of heavens, with all their host, the earth, and all things that are therein, the seas, and all that is therein, and thou preservest them all; and the host of heaven worshippeth thee.

johnydon22:
