^^^^you said God is complex and that is how best man can describe what he does not under stand. God's nature cannot be adiquately describe by words.we do not have enough vocabulary to express our experience of Him. Often times we use the word complex to describe an order that we do not understand so I sympathise with you. However, to compere the complexity of God with the brain of human being is a sincere expression of ignorance. You cannot compere or equate the smartest computer with the brain of man. You cant compere the creator with the creatures. |
@k17: God is the cause. He is the uncreated creator whose power is infinite and whose knowledge is without limit. Man can never be able to fantom Him. He is the uncaused causer and His realm is totally different. So the rule of nature does not limit Him, He is the source of all good and perfect blessings. There is none above or equal to Him. |
Pls people of the world, our brains are too technically intricate to have evolved by chance. Look at nature; carefully balance & purposely positioned. I can continue.! There is therefore a Master designer who conceived and created every thing uniquely for His own pleasure. GOD LOVES YOU. |
@k17: God even though He knows, He will give every body to to earn their temporal & eternal reward. Even sinners wil be warned adiquately even if he will not change by his own choice .He is the God of justice. You'll soon find out. Pls yield. |
@kay 17: the are two dimentions to this issue. 1. There is a purpose for your life. You may know it and yet refuse to fulfill it. 2. That you will refuse is allready known to Him even before you were born. These are the reasons why we say "to every Elijah the is always an Elisha waiting to take over". Even though He knew who would not do His biddings, yet He will give them the oppurtunity to live all the same so that His righteousness will be open to all when He starts to judge and thats going to be soon. |
@kay 17: if God knew that you would take door A you will take door A. He did not chose for us how we will behave He only knew how we would. If however we submit our lives to Him,the He will guide us on how to make a real succes of our lives. But if we dont,there is yet anothe power that will hijack our lives and ruin them. Both have eternal consequencies. There is no vaccum in nature. You cant sit on the fence. That is why we christians are always appealing to people to turn their lives over to God. |
@kay 17: when christians say God is omniscience we mean that He knows all things even before they come to be. that however does not mean that He had predetermined them. for instance God knew before you were born that you will be who you are and being a fair and just God He will not deny you of the opportunity to still live your life and to make your choices without Him unduly interfering in your affiars. God did not make us like robbots He made us to have free will so that we can choose for ourselves where we will be at the end of time. the present world is a transcent place it is like going to school to obtain a certificate to work with after graduation. |
If these facts were true I think the only mistake the Libyan leader made was not to have bowed out when the ovation was loudest possibly his name would have been on a platter of gold this is lesson for all 1.There was no electricity bill in Libya; electricity was free for all its citizens 2. There was no interest on loans, banks in Libya are state-owned and loans given to all its citizens at 0% interest by law 3. Home considered a human right in Libya –Gaddafi vowed that his parents would not get a house until everyone in Libya had a home. Gaddafi's father has died while him, his wife and his mother are still living in a tent 4. All newlyweds in Libya receive $60,000 Dinar (US$50,000) by the government to buy their first apartment so to help start up the family 5. Education and medical treatments are free in Libya. Before Gaddafi only 25% of Libyans are literate. Today the figure is 83% 6. Should Libyans want to take up farming career, they would receive farming land, a farming house, equipments, seeds and livestock to kick-start their farms –all for free 7. If Libyans cannot find the education or medical facilities they need in Libya, the government funds them to go abroad for it – not only free but they get US$2,300/mth accoaccommodationdation and car allowance 8. In Libyan, if a Libyan buys a car, the government subsidized 50% of the price 9. The price of petrol in Libya is $0.14 (N22) per litre 10. Libya has no external debt and its reserves amount to $150 billion – now frozen globally 11. If a Libyan is unable to get employment after graduation the state would pay the average salary of the profession as if he or she is employed until employment is found. 12. A portion of Libyan oil sale is, credited directly to the bank accounts of all Libyan citizens 13. A mother who gave birth to a child receive US$5,000 14. Gaddafi carried out the world’s largest irrigation project, known as the Great Man-Made River project, to make water readily available throughout the desert country Niralandas what do you say.?

^^^^harakiri (m) Nigeria Posts: 3924 Online Online Re: The Descendant Of Apes « #82 on: Today at 08:46:49 PM » Quote from: folaski on Today at 05:50:08 PM ^^^ thanks for all the insults. But it is unfortunate that you are ascribing those catastrophic incidences to God. Especially those caused by man. TAKE NOTE THAT ON THE DAY OF 'REALITY' YOU WILL WISH YOU NEVER SAID THOSE WORDS. No threat intended, just warning you! Save your empty threats and warnings for people who are mentally dull and gullible as you are. How typical of religious folks. . .Always capitalizing on the insecurities of the naive to bend their will to believe in imaginary delusions. Take heart, all your forefathers/great grandfathers are burning in hell because they weren't Christians until the slave traders brought their religion. Nonsense! [code][/code] once again i say thank you! and i pray that God will forgive you. |
[/code]My advise will be marry your woman and damn the consequences, nothing dey happen, if you papa complains tell him you are his true son and inherited it from him.If you donot stand up to your Dad he will never respect you as your ow man, I am not saying be rude but stand up for yourself, parents are not the Almighty and the Almighty gave FREE WILL.[code] you sound familiar. that's what my woman is saying too!!! |

@harakiri: whatever you think about God cannot diminish His love for you. Go and study the pre 1948 history of Israel,then the media comments on the Israeli/Arab's 6 days war then you will know that there is a God who gives strength to the weak tha puts their trust in Him. He is equally interested in other nations and peoples that puts their trust in Him. Try Him for yourself and i bet it that you won't regret it. |
@kay17:master designer: God the creator of heaven and the earth is the Master designer and He does not need any master above Him. In actual fact He has no master or equal. Read the post you responded to again.! |
@kay 17: yous opinion would have been different if you had been borne during the dark ages when human sacrifices and carnibalism was the order of the day. |
OP i rejoice with you. God has made you a living testimony of His goodness. I key in to the grace you are enjoying by requesting that you metion me to God when you pray for more pioneering grace. The Lord Himself will sustain you too in Jesus name. |
@jenwitemi: the truth is a constant that does not change. You need to read my post carefuly to understand my point. When you do,apply the same gentle approach to your search about Christianity and what you will get will get yojt thinking seriously. Documented history has it that England was a religious nation and infact the common law emanated from biblical principles. Infact the quotation of bible pasages was the norm in the court untill recent times. Also note that till date as a matter of tradition the Archbishop of Cantabury is a permanent member of the highest law making body. As for the USA, what does it mean to say "in God we trust" go back and read a little about history, read my post again before you make further comment. God loves you. |
@harakiri: Egypt is a deeply religious nation and so is the U.S.A and the U.K. these last two are among the most developed nations in the world. American have "in God we trust" as their national slogan while the U.K. has a purely christian background. The farther they are now moving away from God the deeper they plunge into terrible decadence. Think again pls. |
@yagba: i honestly agree with you. |
@manmustwac: about your question ; pls note that i once hated the idea of religion at a time in my life. But later i discovered that whatever brought this world to being must gave a purpose for it. That of course includes my life. The craving to discover why am here and what i stand to gain for living coupled with a kind of emptyness that i felt about life,i began to do a personal search. I only came to discover that every product always come with a mannul. I read all sorts ranging from armoc,grail mesg,the qurian(eng ed.) and the bible. i still have some of the books.I was only impresed by the bold and definitive claims of the bible. Not even any of our ATR could make such consistently bold and beautiful/ reassuring claims. So christianity got my vote. When i adopted it,the first thing was that i had an inexplanable peace and satisfaction. Then i began a quest for the purpose of my existence and when i eventually found it i knew it then that i had got it. I felt like a round peg in a round hole and am enjoying fulfilling it. So it was by the grace of God that i am found and saved. I challeng you to do an open minded,indipendent and sincere search for your self and you will know that there is an incontrovatible creator that loves you.Examine the orthodox faith and not the' pentirascal',and be ready for a pleasant surprise. I was not inductrinate to accep Jesus, my eyes were opened to the truth and i embraced it. |
@martian: the Almighty God reings over everything and He is not a local god. I know that there is a part of you that will be warning you right now. Pls respond to it. |
^^^ my warning to you is that suposing He exist and you find out only when it is too late? |
@harakiri: let me start by saying that Godless science reads nature only as harakiri did hebrew, rightly syllabling the sentences,but utterly ignorant of the meaning. 2ndly, the bible which you believe to be a bedtime story has a habit of outliving the sceptics and their criticisms,and as real knowledge advances, the list of biblical "mistakes" becomes ever smaller instead of bigger. The bible gives man a noble,upright,perfect beginning=evolution traces man's ancestry back to a microbe in the primeval mud which appeared spontaneously. Prof. Fleischman,the noted zoologist of Erlangen,Bavaria, though formerly believing the evolution theory,later rejected it as unscientific. He said, "the Darwinian theory has not a single fact to confirm it in the realm of science. It is not the result of scientific research, but purely the product of imagination" Prof. G. W. Wright, geologist of Ohio, decleared that "the doctrine of evolution is one-tenth bad science and nine-tenths bad philosophy" even Charles Darwing, the greatest apostle of evolution admitted that "a recurrent tragedy of science is the killing of some beautiful theory by an ugly fàct.(Noah's flood:fact & fiction? Page 22). The pity is that the 'ugly fact" not the "beautiful theory", is usually the thing to suffer. Pls wake up. |
This thread does not make sense. End it here pls |
^^^ more confussion. nothing specific. there is always a missing link. |
^^^ child's play |
^^^ i know the meaning of dilemma. atheists are confused people they themselves have a spirit that keeps them alife and yet deny the existence of spirits.they claim the ownership of their own portion of the resources of the earth, yet deny the creator and giver. they are like pirate whose slogan is “take everything you can and give nothing back “ .in all, they deny their own existence and yet cannot accept God . they want to live and yet deny the giver of life. it is a parthetic situation. they do not know which to chose because they thought both are bad. may God have mercy on them. |
@jayriginal: I know that there are many religions that claims all sorts. You see, Christianity, according to John 14:6 there Jesus boldly claimed "I am the way the truth and the life, " check out the creedal content of the rest and see if any one came out so boldly and clearly. There is no missing it if you follow Him. As per the other demon inspired congrigations pls find time to read mathew 12:22-37 with open mind of course; power pass power. |
@ kay17: God knew what was going to happen and took resposibility out of His Love to personally deliver us from our task master. Howevere He still did not take away man's free will to obey or disobey Him. |
@Kay17: the love God demonstrated to the world by giving us His only Son as a propitiation for our is enough.(Am sure you'll agree that love is giving). The only way by which i can demonstrate my own love is to invite you into the family of Christ where i belong. I have given you what i have , pls kindly accept it. |
^^^ You said so. |
