Pesuzok:
Why are they missing something.

You have to be a child of God, you have to be born again

You are tithing wrongly. At least from the Bible

You don't tithe money.
If you must tithe money it has to be 30%
Tithe is yearly
Every three years you give your tithe to the orphans and widows.
At least in the Bible.
Tithing is law. We are no longer under law.
Tithing is like telling me to make sacrifices. It's mandatory 10%.
Under grace it's about you giving according to what you feel. 0% or 100%

I am born again and I love God. I don't like these pastors because they are against everything God stands for. See I'm not rich and I'm not poor. I rather give my money to the poor than these pastors. Why? Because I am showing them God's love. It's better than the love pastors show them.

I don't claim to hear from God but I know giving to fellow Christians who are in need is better than giving to a pastor who already has sooo much.

A true Christian doesn't need a Rolls Royce he needs a car. A true Christian doesn't need a private jet. There are alternatives.

I can't change your mind because of the cult like love you have for your pastor. Sit down think from the area of love, the love for God. By their fruits you shall know them.

If you tithe and you don't have increase it falls to two things. God is a fraud or your Pastor is a fraud.

Since God cannot be a fraud, then automatically your pastor is a fraud.

It's simple

kirajustice:
Bishop David Oyedepo of living faith ministries has revealed the consequences that await any Christian who doesn't pay tithe.

Oyedepo, while speaking to members of Dunamis International gospel centre in Abuja on Thursday said that tithing opens the windows of heaven and ensures divine blessings for Christians adding that those who don't pay are permanently beggars. In his words;

"If you don’t pay tithe you are permanently a beggar. I’m permanently under an open heaven. Every seed you give to God returns but only tithe secures your destiny. Its tithing that secures your blessing.

Through the mystery of tithing, you don’t run out of divine ideas. Tithing opens the windows of heaven and pours you quick understandings."

Still no scriptural passage to back it up.

I think I should become a pastor enough gullible who wants to play bet9ja with tithes and offerings.

No wahala.

I'm so happy I'm not brainwashed. People will rather give to pastors, hoping to get monetary reward from God than give someone who is poor.

Wey my legs

sKeetz:
Not surprised.

We all know hydraulic soup causes depletion of my brain cells. That's why a greater percentage of my braincells should be given to dogs to eat. I am a dirty hate filled black man. I'm equally mad. #spits

I forgot that teachers in the south west are composed of people from other zones. I am stupid and have no capacity to think.

Like I always ask, can anything good come from my brain?!?

Nothing good, I guess

Ok

If you tell me to unblock. I just close your site afterall there's nothing you have that you didn't get somewhere else

Turantula:
I can assure you that that presentation was done by PDP.

Yeah right

Once you hate someone you look for every opportunity to damage them.

Buhari had plenty faults but he's not in charge of power point presentation. Look for the agency in charge and lambast them.

Be objective

OrestesDante:


Let me be a Prophet for now. Though I didn't go to church today!





The very first thing that came to my mind is Nairaland. There may not be Nairaland by then.

Well all I know is that by then, I'd be a fossil.

The world will be in chaos!!! Immorality will be at its peak!!!


The Technology will be mind-boggling. Our scientists and technologists may by then have developed space probes and bodies that can travel at the speed of light.

More discoveries will be made in Astronomy and other fields.

Homosexuality, Transgender, Paedophilia will be nothing by then even in Nigeria. 79% of people in world will not believe there is a God.

Most Churches will become shrines.


The world may have had a new evolution of man Homo funny

Nothing can travel at the speed of light but light photons. Don't get it twisted

Atheist Murderers

This list contains names and relevant details of various atheistic murderers, including genocidal/democidal dictators, mass shooters, serial killers, etc. It was composed to correct the notion that "atheists have never killed anyone" that some atheists have tried to argue and that all violence is somehow due to religion/theism. It has often been observed that when atheists make such a claim and are shown evidence to the contrary, they modify their argument (in a manner of the "No True Scotsman" or "Moving the Goalposts" fallacy) by insisting they meant, "No one has ever killed in the name of atheism," as this still attempts to pin down something that makes atheism look morally superior to religion/theism which supposedly cannot make the same claim. However, it could be argued that no one has actually killed in the name of mere "religion" or "theism" either but rather in the name of specific religious and theistic ideologies. Likewise, many have also killed in the name of specific atheistic ideologies, most famously, Marxism, which was the very reason why many murderers listed here committed their crimes (i.e. to rid the world of religion and of people seen to oppose "Communism". Many non-Marxist atheists are listed here as well, diversely discrediting the absurd notion that all violence somehow springs from a belief in God (and thus gives credence to the idea that atheism does not necessarily inhibit humans from killing each other but may, as some of these examples could suggest, do the opposite).

He also executed 14,000 to 20,000 priests for their disagreements with Bolshevism. Later, he seized food from peasants all over the country, which worsened the Russian Famine of 1921 that ended up killing 5 million people.

Military General and Prime Minister of Japan who was reponsible for the deaths of 5 million people (in addition to all the martial deaths he caused during World War II, especially regarding the attack on Pearl Harbor, which he ordered). He practiced a form of Buddhism, which is often considered an atheistic religion.

Petru Groza (1884-1958)
Atheist leader of Communist Romania, under whose leadership 60,000 people were executed and 100,000 others died under forced labor.

Sergei Mironovich Kirov (1886-1934) a.k.a. Kostrikov
Prominent Bolshevik leader (President of the Revolutionary Military Committee) and atheist who ordered "the merciless extermination" of prisoners "by any means possible." Around 4,000 prisoners had stones tied around their necks and were thrown in a river to drown.

Rosalia Zemlyachka (1876-1947)
Russian revolutionary, Soviet politician, and atheist who murdered 50,000 soldiers in brutal manners in Crimea, despite having promised them safe passage.

Béla Kun (1886-1939) a.k.a. Béla Kohn
Marxist revolutionary, atheist, and Soviet leader of Hungary who, when he had control of Crimea, carried out executions, resulting in the shooting of 60,000 and 70,000 people.

Adolf Hitler (1889-1945)
German Nazi dictator who is responsible for the Holocaust (a.k.a. The Shoah), a genocide that killed 11 million people, notably killing 6 million Jews due to the Nazis' particularly anti-semitic policies. While he would sometimes claim to be a Christian to the religious public, Hitler also declared, "Our epoch will certainly see the end of the disease of Christianity," and claimed that "The Christian religion is nothing but a Jewish sect," and that, "One is either a Christian or a German. You cannot be both." Joseph Goebbels affirmed that Hitler was "completely anti-Christian" and said the best way for them to deter the churches from fighting the Nazi government was to "claim" to be Christian while gradually "strangle any attempt" of religion from interfering with the state. Hitler said that he used the term "God" to refer to "the dominion of natural laws throughout the universe" (and said that he was opposed to "atheism" if it meant denying that). However, he was against any religious conception of God, saying that priests have exploited people's feeling, and that "In the long run, National Socialism [a.k.a. Nazism] and religion will no longer be able to exist together." For such reasons, there have obviously been historians who have classified Hitler as an atheist.

hopefulLandlord:
my premise? as how? didn't I give good explanation in my first post on this thread?

you can also add this

Christians say their god is omnipresent, omniscient, omnipotent and omnibelevolent

if these qualities are true then we'd all know of this god's existence, here's why:

an omnipresent god is with me right now

an omniscient god knows what would convince me of his existence

an omnipotent god can do that thing that'll convince me

an omnibelevolent god would want to convince me of his existence


the fact that such an entity exists but requires humans to indoctrinate other humans about it points to the fact that such an entity does not exist!

If I'm right you believe there's a creator but you don't believe in the Christian God.

hopefulLandlord:
which argument was that? god of the gaps?

and the creator of this DNA magically happened?

why should I accept a creator if that "supposed" creator won't accept a creator?

I never said there's no god, I said the bible god does not exist! big difference!! what you did is pull a strawman

Before I continue with you. I need to understand what you believe. I need to know your premise

hopefulLandlord:
The bible god does not exist!

Holy spirit is fictional

Jesus was either fictional or just a normal good man or a composite of several good men and god ideas that came before him

Christianity is make believe and that's a fact!

you can prove this for yourself by performing a thought experiment on why TITHING has such a divisive effect despite all Christians claiming to talk to holy spirit and getting "Truth" from him? why does "truth" from holy spirit seem to have contradictory versions?

ask a group Christians if they have a personal relationship with Jesus and they'll answer with an emphatic Yes!!!!

ask them whether this Jesus is God or not and pandemonium starts . If this Jesus is as personal to them and talks to them as they claim, why is it so hard for them to simply ask this personal friend Jesus if he's God or not? if they should tithe or not? why should something as basic as these cause so much confusion?

This would lead you to one single conclusion, Christianity is a sham

this thread also talks more about the nonsense called Christianity https://www.nairaland.com/3844519/

That's how you ran away from an argument that proves a creator. The DNA is a Complex and Specified Information (CSI). It's in all living things. As far as science is concerned CSI cannot just magically happen.

Just accept there is a creator, Religion is a problem and we need to know the true God. It's through Jesus.

Your religion of no God is wrong also.

This Freeze guy really needs to define his stand on morality. You can't be trying to correct some ills in the society yet at the same time frolicking with people of questionable characters.

They said the same of Jesus.

Are you a Pharisee

You obviously hate the man.

Opposition is to criticize a government but when you start to wish someone dead, that's no longer opposition that's hate.
