Joshthefirst: his sacrifice has already paid off. He gave up eternal glory, omniscience and became human. He paid the price and was exalted again. He did this for us.

He was God. But he became man to deal with our problem, and he attained God status again to unite us with the father and put us in our proper place in the universe

Such is the heaviness of the resurrection.
A dead man opened his eyes in flesh, never to die again. A humbled man became a powerful king for us

That at the name of Jesus, every knee shall bow, and every tongue shall confess that Jesus is lord.

His sacrifice was in his humulity even unto death because of his love for mankind. He tasted death for every man.

King of an imaginary utopia you call heaven?

He was God and became God again, what did he lose? You really need to look up the meaning of the word "sacrifice"

Joshthefirst: it was a sacrifice for God the son to humble himself and become human. To humble himself and become a carpenter's son, to walk the streets of old israel preaching the kingdom of God and being persecuted, to die a shameful death when he was not guilty of any crime. To take upon himself wrath and the sins of man and remain in the grave.

His birth, life, and death are his sacrifice.

I'm asking what exactly did he give up that he isn't presently having according to your belief?

Joshthefirst:

How can you reject his sacrifice and still expect to be saved by him?

Sorry, but Jesus doesn't force his salvation down people's throats. They have to accept him and believe him and trust him and repent.

How is the death of Jesus a sacrifice?

Uyi Iredia: Atheists here abeg move to the non-Christian chatbox and revive it. The place's dead.

I don't want to be banned for showing up in the wrong gathering.

Joshthefirst: what have the gods everywhere done or achieved?(Apart from making the people poorer perhaps? And hypocritical. Professing to be good but denying it in their lives?) Nigeria is an example of a place where people commit idolatry.

Their gods have eyes, but they do not see, ears but they do not hear. They do not move. Nigeria is a nation of religious people what has that achieved?
Corruption? Hypocrisy everywhere? Religion?

We have even idolized the true God who changes lives and heals and speaks. They have reduced God to the common idols of old. They think he's a goodluck charm.

The God I'm speaking of is alive, he changes lives and heals and delivers from sin.
He changes a man and gives him joy and love.
That's the God I speak of.

Your Christian God exists in your mind. What has your Christian God done for Nigeria. We have been praying for a better Nigeria since the 80's. How many years does it take your God to answer prayers? Stop falling for those charade miracles you see on television. There are many muslim crippled beggars in front of your churches why not heal one of them so you can show the might of your God?

[quote author=i-smoke-weed]How can you insult my God and I will keep silent?

You're lucky I can't catch you, I will physically abuse you if I ever do

Stewpid little boy[/quote] Rapists now posing as Christian sisters.
Any God who needs it's followers to fight for it is an idol.

[quote author=i-smoke-weed]^^^ see what this f00l is quoting? Who gave you bible self? I can't believe you actually paid for one. Holding onto something meaningless to you only emphasizes your stewpidity

I dont know what you are trying so hard to prove. You talk as if you were born into a family of atheists which if true means you are worse off than I expected. Why must you keep practicing hypocricy by keeping a bible with you as you say the book is useless to you.

You are an abnormal person hiding behind the cover of an online forum to proclaim that you are an atheist, if you are truly happy and satisfied being one why not go on NTA and broadcast

Olori buruku! Make I hear say dem no flog JESUS back into your life

Its a fact that you have multiple accounts on this forum, all the so called unbelievers that have been posting on this thread is the same person

If others do not know . . . I KNOW

Atheists are all potential ritualists and black magic users. Ungrateful people that don't know anything but claim to know everything aka F00LS

I have no sympathy for your manner of humans, Its because you haven't been at the point of death before or seen a fellow human die before your very eyes that makes you have no fear of what lies beyond.

But very soon . . .[/quote]Post like this reaffirms my stance that religion is for the fickle-minded individuals.

[quote author=i-smoke-weed]Its a well known fact that only fools don't believe in God

Even satan, babalawo, kiddnappers, robbers, ATHEISTS etc all know there is a God

BUT FOOLS DONT[/quote]Yes the atheist community is aware of gods who exist only in religious books. Have you said something new?

sambas: Just saw it on ait news, Banks in Nigeria to replace atm card with finger print. I don't know if i'm the only one against this development, with the current security pros.Is it not better to loose an atm card to robbers than a finger in every attack?

The ability to hear, read and interpret correctly should be considered an elite skill set. Judging from the number of likes the quoted post got.

bolaino: Greetings to my brethren here on nairaland, may the blessings of the lord be with you now and always, may the good lord give you the strength and courage to fight in this last battle,


Brethren I believe you are all famillier with the prophecies in the bible about the end of the world, unfortunately for satan and his disciples these things are coming to pass, the armageddon that our brother obadiah777 has been preaching about is finally here, but there are issues that I would like to explain more about subsequently,


This is for all my brethren who do not believe in God, I want u to know that indeed there is God, I never thought I would ever preach the gospel of jesus, because I like the apostle paul persecuted christians both here on nairaland and in the real world, but after the lord visited me like he visited the apostle paul, I was humbled by the grace of our lord God jehovah, the lord is indeed real, my life is enough testimony for the existence of God, everyday when I wake up, I postrate before my creator in heaven and worship him.


I want to plead with my atheist brethren, God loves u so much, more than u can ever imagine, muskeetoo, logicboy, plaethon, folykaze etc, all of you both the people I could not mention their names, the lord loves each and every one of you, and the lord is calling you to come back home, indeed I now understand why the holy bible says only a fool says there is no God, don't be fools, because if the holy bible, a book inspired of God calls you a fool, then you are a fool indeed, and u should kneel down and beg God for forgiveness,


but if you accept jesus into your life, the lord will give you more wisdom than he gave king solomon, and anyone who the son of man shall set free is free indeed. It is not too late for you guys, the lord is standing at the door of your hearts and knocking, allow him in, christianity is not difficult or full of contradictions like the devil has made people to believe, those are all lies from the master deceiver the master of all lies, come back home my brethren before it is too late, the kingdom of God has come.


I shall not seize in praying for all of you, both christians and non christians, God is God of love, he loves everybody, irrespective of your religion, race, tribe, etc, he created all of us and we are his children, so he doesn't want us to be destroyed with satan on the last day, he wants us to have everlasting life, no be 2045 project kind of immortality, the lord wants us to have everlasting life, filled with happiness and joy,


It is well with you my brethren, the lord will show himself more to us in this endtime. I love you all with the love of christ.

Shallom

Bolaino my good man, I'm looking forward to sharing a beer with you and discussing your new found conviction.

Why take a second wife, when you can have support staff on a contract basis?

albacete: ^^ If u don't believe humans have souls, what about conscience, or is that also a concept developed eons ago?

Maybe u need a clear definition of the word "ignorance".

Why not just appreciate science instead of doing a fictitious God comparison. A parochial mind is like an unpolished shoe, it attracts dusts. People who do not read widely and constantly challenge their world view are part of the problem of society.

Technically, No. We just count our losses and move on most times.

italo: Wrong. I dont feel deep emptiness yet I love God.

If you love God, you would love your neighbour too. I am your neighbour, show me some love. give me 5 million to manage for Xmas. A refusal means you don't love me, or atleast you don't love me enough to put yourself in discomfort.

Christian: Why would a man want a relationship with another man, it beats me. These gay people must be possessed by demons.
Atheist: Sadly, you keep telling me I need a man in my life.
Christian: Me? When?
Atheist: You said I need Jesus in my life.

This teaches me to suspect most miracles we see on TV are scripted.

Godswill A Judins: Star singer Ayo Balogun aka Wizkid recently displayed the highest level of respect to veteran musician King Sunny Ade, KSA.

This happened in Victoria Island, Lagos about 2 weeks ago as the two are about to perform together on stage at the Ebony TV launch.

Wizzy knows how to show respect to his elders. Nice one!

Is it just me or his legs seems to be suspended in the air? Picture looks fake to me.

blink182: The first possible cause of death has come in(food poisoning at the hands of his party men in DPP) and we were wrong. Amori isn't to blame, instead fingers are pointing in the direction of Ogboru as Ewherido is his major foe come 2015.

I have been saying it that ehwerido will end ogboru's still born political career in 2015 as he is a better choice.

For now, my source is very reliable but I won't create a trail for anyone to verify anything. Ughelli has virtually come to a stand still, Ewhu town is in mourning and we can't but wait for further revelations to unfold.

Post like this is divisive, when will you Urhobo people ever become wise? At this rate you would hand over the state to the Anioma person PDP will finally field.

You know there are ways to disagree, without coming off as a zombie. Right?

lekejob: You'd better be careful, must you joke with everythig? Just try that with other religion leaders.

I didn't make the video, and it in no way demeans your religion unless you have reasons to doubt the miracles in the bible.

This is for entertainment purposes, please no insults here...

I'm presently not in Norway, so I would not be in the right position to answer your question, but I think jaga jaga and the others should be able to help you.Also try searching for Nigerians who graduated from or are currently studying at the schools you are interested in on Linkedin.com, you will be overwhelmed by the quality of information you would get from them. Also try "liking" their page on Facebook and you would get other basic information there also. But, trust me on the "linkedin" option, all you have to do is introduce yourself politely when adding them on linkedin.

Ihedinobi: I was not inquiring for your opinion, mazaje. I was making a point.

It's simple, really. If all the Jesus's are contradictory, then they cannot all be the same Jesus. If there is a Jesus that saves, He is either one of the Jesus's advocated or else He is none of them. And only the believers of such a Jesus are true believers, see?

Therefore, it is wrong to say that true believers disagree on the nature of Jesus. It may be said that adherents of the Chriatian religion disagree on the nature of Jesus and that would be true. But it would be necessary to note that not all adherents are true believers of Jesus Christ. Many manufacture a Jesus of their own or adopt a doctored Jesus.

Such people cannot be rightly called true believers since it is a false Jesus that they believe in. Therefore the statement that true believers disagree on the nature of Jesus is false.

1. What is a true believer from the bible's perspective(please I need a definition and try not to input more placeholders that you may need to define at the end)

2. What is the true nature of Jesus Christ?

MostHigh: 1. The Location of this kingdom as I have intimated to you before is The physical earth

If your question is refering to the exact location on earth then my answer is the African continent.

2. As to the nature of this kingdom we can say the kingdom history and prophecy state that the messanaic kingdom is THEOCRATIC by nature.

By theocracy we mean the farther standing as priest and king in the human family with the most high God over us all (Just as moses intimated/requested in the torah)

Is this Kingdom already in place or it is to come?

MostHigh: What exactly would you like to know?

Just so we are on point.

The location and nature of this Kingdom of Heaven

I think you should take a close look at these...

P.S: I believe this site may not contain all the programs that exist so you may want to create the time to look through individual schools. Application is usually free so my take is that you apply to as many as possible.

ceechedah: goodday everyone, pls ezme n jaga jaga i need ur help in gettin some information, i wld like to come n do my masters in norway,i wld like to study international business,i studied accountancy in my first degree n graduated wit a first class,wat r my chances of getting admitted n also securing a job while studying...i heard for some schools in norway it is tuition frree,pls hw true is dat? N for the ones dat isnt wat is the range for their tuition fee. Thanks

Personally I feel your chances are very high judging by your class of degree only, although some schools pay more attention to the modules you took during undergraduate study, the link below should help you. It already is a streamlined search, go through the program description see if they meet what you want, and if you meet their pre-requisite requirements.Also, have it in mind that you may be required to take GRE, GMAT and probably a test of English language.

ezme: Where exactly is the heaven where those who would be rewarded with eternal life reside?

your response

MostHigh: That Would be the first heaven AKA terrestrial AKA mother earth.

I went further to say

ezme: So we can both agree that we are already in Heaven, right?

Your response

MostHigh: Correction 1st heaven.

Which is completely different from the KINGDOM OF HEAVEN.

...Now I would like you to talk about this kingdom of Heaven?

MostHigh: That Would be the first heaven AKA terrestrial AKA mother earth.

So we can both agree that we are already in Heaven, right?

MostHigh: OK let me try again

The 1st heaven is the terrestrial AKA mother earth

The 2nd heaven is the celestial AKA The sun moon and stars

Finally the 3rd heaven is the habitation of the Most High God AKA the heart of man.

Is habitation Sill An Issue?

Where exactly is the heaven where those who would be rewarded with eternal life reside?
