UyiIredia: The worse slavery is in misunderstanding what the mind actually is.

What, actually, is the mind?

Unless you don't mind arranged marriages, it is.

God shouldn't be your standard for romantic relationships tho. What does he know about them? When he liked Mary, he simply bleeped her and got her pregnant, then he forsook the child.

Wait. I can see why you raised the OP now.

ifeness: I hope the Christians dont fall for this slave ship thing,otherwise it's gonna be hard labour on another planet. The last dude i will love to spend eternity with is the bible virgin rap1st God.

Lmao!!! What would you call eternal praise singing?

If only the rapture could come and take you lot away this minute.

efedua: already underlined

I'm missing the fact that God is man made?

emmyskies: End time means end of evil. It means the devil will no longer continue it's perpetratous act. Evil will stop to spread. The wicked ones will be rewarded their wickedness, the good ones will be rewarded their righteousness. The earth will be renewed, the saints will come to inherit the new heaven and new earth. There will be new Jerusalem. The presence of GOD will continually be with mankind. There would be no more sorry or cry or pain etc. So much joy and happiness amongst the saints. The promises of GOD will come to pass. His word will be fulfilled. Then the world will be exactly as the LORD God Almighty made it in the first place and want it to be. There is more to it Finofaya. There is more to it than our expections and all we imagine. Just strive to be there. Strive to be among the saints of GOD. GOD bless you

God bless you too bro.

See, the devil's "perpetratous act" is leading people to hell, abi? If he leads people to hell and he succeeds in keeping them there, can you say that he has discontinued his perpetratous act? I would say he hasn't, and in that case then evil would not be ended.

MightySparrow: Simple. it has a beginning.

Lol.

By your logic, because things begin they must end. So anything you can think of that has a beginning is bound to end. Now, is Lucifer bound to end? Is your soul bound to end? Are angels bound to end? The light that God created, is it bound to end?

Maybe you were just joking.

efedua: try on to learn much before speaking

What am I missing?

Grow up, homophobe.

Yahweh? No. If he did not hold people to ransom with the devil, only very few people would worship him. He is not a very nice character.

An omnipotent, omnibenevolent God would not need to threaten people with punishment in order to get them to worship him. Yahweh however is a man made God and as such a man made system of reward and punishment, similar to our legal systems, is needed to get people to comply with his instructions.

emmyskies: Even if the world doesn't end soon, our generation will die and face judgement. Very few will be saved to heaven while many will go to hell. It is better the world end in our generation. Sin has become rampant, the fear of GOD is in the hearts of very few.

Prepare for JESUS coming

What is now the point of an 'end time'?

BodyKiss: Jesus has been coming soon for over 1900 years. How soon is soon?

Everybody expects him to come in their lifetime. That's why you keep hearing 'soon'.

A far away date, say 3815, would allow much more people to make it to heaven but apparently there is a shortage of accommodation or funds in heaven. So admission needs to end soon.

I heard the initial budget was even for 144, 000 people.

PastorOluT: Smile, atheist wannabe!@op

Yeah okay.

aaronson: Re-read,practice makes perfect

Bros just write more clearly next time.

Missonas: What did creating it in the first place serve?or why was it created, why did it come into existence? Since you already know what the Bible says in regards to end time but its not enough then *shrugs* just take it as it is or join the train of @rational thinkers and seekers .So many questions

'...why are we born in the first place if this is how we gat to go, damn...' Nas-Sabali (patience)

I thought I know what the bible says, but look at where I am now. Judgment day looks meaningless from here. At times you think the bible is saying one thing, and then you realize its saying the opposite. One has to be sure of what he is taking on faith.

1. 17,000 atheists in the Middle East rioted this week after a blank sheet of paper was found on a cartoonist's desk.

2. Thank god I'm an atheist.

3. During the Reign of Terror of the French Revolution, one morning's executions began with three men: a rabbi, a Catholicpriest, and a rationalist skeptic.

The rabbi was marched up onto the platform first. There, facing the guillotine, he was asked if he had any last words. And the rabbi cried out, "I believe in the one and only true God, and He shall save me." The executioner then positioned the rabbi below the blade, set the block above his neck, and pulled the cord to set the terrible instrument in motion. The heavy cleaver plunged downward, searing the air. But then, abruptly, it stopped with a crack just a few inches above the would-be victim's neck. To which the rabbi said, "I told you so."

"It's a miracle!" gasped the crowd. And the executioner had to agree, letting the rabbi go.

Next in line was the priest. Asked for his final words, he declared, "I believe in Jesus Christ the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost who will rescue me in my hour of need." The executioner then positioned this man beneath the blade. And he pulled the cord. Again the blade flew downward thump! creak! ...stopping just short of its mark once more.

"Another miracle!" sighed the disappointed crowd. And the executioner for the second time had no choice but to let the condemned go free.

Now it was the skeptic's turn. "What final words have you to say?" he was asked. But the skeptic didn't hear. Staring intently at the ominous engine of death, he seemed lost. Not until the executioner poked him in the ribs and the question was asked again did he reply.

"Oh, I see your problem," the skeptic said pointing. "You've got a blockage in the gear assembly, right there!"

AfricanApple: before they born my great great grandfather work has been ending, till now world is still ending, I'm really really wondering o when dat world would finally end. end time tinz according to pple. religion sha

Funny. Every time their prediction fails they will say its a miscalculation. Somehow it has not occurred to them that there is no end time.

Some people don't want to just die and be gone. They want the whole world to die together with them.

They will say this world is just a bus stop and that's why it'll be destroyed. As if people cannot use a bus stop forever.

Religion sha.

aaronson: Here is the truth that would Fork up your mind,this world would never end,the minute planet earth stops rotating human would be thrown out in to space like you know how people gets thrown out from a speeding car when it clutch its brake abruptly,live and die is rule to live by naturally but people are scared to die and 90% of people believes in life after death(religion)

I don't understand this.

sonOfLucifer: Who breeds these fools?

God

Quite a number of Christians expect the world to end real soon. All Christians expect the world to end at some point. This point is sooner than that at which science expects all life on earth to cease.

The reason given by Christianity for why the world should end is somewhat obscure. The official reason is that God wants to judge everybody at once and after judgment everybody will be consigned to either heaven or hell. This is said to be for the greater good, since man may then be admitted into paradise.

This reason fails to take into account the fact that man may then also be admitted to hell. Majority of man in fact will likely be ushered into the blazing furnace of God. If you take this into account, you will see that judgment day is not actually for the greater good.

You may feel that the end of the world is justified because the world does not meet God's standards, so he has to discontinue it. The question is; why now? Why not earlier? Of what use was the bad world? And why discontinue it if that does not address the problem of evil?

Yes. Even when the world ends, evil will remain. It will only be transferred from earth to hell. Most of it anyway, since there is always the start up capital in heaven. And since there will be a far greater number of people in hell, people who will never be free from pain again, there will remain a surplus of suffering in God's utopia. What then was the point of ending the world?

Ending the world seems not to serve a greater good and also seems pointless.

One then has to wonder what the appeal of ending the world is, especially when you remember that every person will die at some point and this, for all intents and purposes, is the end of that person's world. Every man is therefore guaranteed the end of his world. Why bother yourself about ending the world for everybody?

So, exactly what is ending the world supposed to achieve?

I believe Clint Eastwood will do wonderful things through you. Your coming is a welcome development on our religious landscape. Contact me for affordable registration with the CAC and other legal matters.

May Eastwood keep you.

PS. Have you drafted your creation facts? What of your eschatology?

malvisguy212: do you believe i have juju?

I think you believe you can affect things through supernatural means.

Yeah, as long as she is only marginally superstitious and we understand that she can't force religion on the kids.

@valmunich

Religion encompasses more than the Christian God so you can try other alternatives to see if they are more appealing.

You attributed your nonchalance to the Christian faith to the way it was taught to you. That may be correct, but since not everybody in your class/school shares your sentiment, it is also possible that it is not the way it was taught to you that is your problem, rather your problem could be that the Christian faith does not sit well with you.

I think it is more likely that the faith is not to your taste since you now know so much about it and you are free to practice it as you wish but you have failed practice it in the conventional way. Do you still use the bible?

The way tithes were demanded for also put you off. However you have to realize that the problem there is not entirely with the person who demands for the tithe, it is also with the person who cannot resist such a demand. Ultimately, it is with the coercive nature of the faith, and it is not unique to the Christian faith, or even to the issue of tithing. You are likely to find it anywhere you turn.

Lastly, you are not required to follow any religion. Not everybody follows one. Most times the choice of religion is not given to the individual, but at times, just like with you, a person finds himself in a position to choose. Try not to limit your choices.

malvisguy212: 1 Thessalonians 5:3King James Version (KJV) 3 For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall
not escape.

So you know your incantations. Carry on. I am protected by the impotence of your juju.

OP your madness don full dey trowey

bigemmmybig: Gay men have to stay in front tho. Let us not tempt them with our behinds while we are bowed in prayer------ dis got me laughing i like ur freedom of xpression bro

My muslim brothers, we can ignore a gay man. Maybe look the other way for a woman. But a gay woman? Really?

Maybe allowing these people more access to Allah will be better for them anyway. I'm sure there is a cure in the Qur'an.

Gay men have to stay in front tho. Let us not tempt them with our behinds while we are bowed in prayer.

Doro might actually be the one true God.

God's time is truly coming to an end.

Colour belongs to the material world. It is our brains' interpretation of electromagnetic radiation. Since there is neither brain nor electromagnetic radiation in the spiritual world, there is no colour in the spiritual world.

What happened is that there is a causal relationship between God's mercy and Zmapp but it is not yet understood which causes which or whether the relationship is always causal.
